《Farmer's Pampered Wife: Farming Crops To Raise A Bun》Chapter 23: She Was Truly Afraid Of Being Poor!
Advertisement
Lin Xiaoye went up and grabbed Wang-shi's wrist and took her pulse.
There were no serious problems, but her body was too weak. If this continued, how could she be able to hold on?
While she was thinking, she heard Wang-shi's voice.
"Xiaoye, Xiaoya, Mother has dragged down you two sisters again and I have never even taken care of the both of you, but still..."
Wang-shi cried again after she spoke.
Xiaoya couldn't help crying as well upon seeing her mother cry.
"Mother, don't blame yourself."
Lin Xiaoye really couldn't stand watching the scene of crying at every turn. Although, her heart was indeed a little throbbing seeing Wang-shi like this, but crying is not always the way!
Since she was using this body now, there are things that this body should do.
Xiaoya raised a pair of scarlet eyes and looked at Lin Xiaoye.
"Why did you want to bring Mother and me to live here?"
Her small house was not even enough for her own family to live in.
Wang-shi immediately wiped away the tears off her face.
"Xiaoye, Mother knows that you have always been filial. Mother is really happy that you can change now, but your Grandma…"
Saying that, Wang-shi couldn't help but sigh.
Even if she disliked Sun-shi a million times, she was still the Lin Family's Daughter-in-Law after all. How could she scold her own Mother-in-Law behind her back?
"You don't have to worry about Grandma, but you'll still have to live in that yard. However, I'll make money as soon as possible and when I buy a mansion, we'll live together."
Hearing Lin Xiaoye's words, Xiaoya immediately opened her eyes wide and her mind was filled with longing, as if that huge courtyard was already right in front of her eyes.
At this moment, Wang-shi thought of something and pulled Lin Xiaoye's hand.

"Xiaoye, Mother wanted to ask you about the last time, where did you get money? You can actually buy so much white flour."
Saying this, Wang-shi's eyebrows knitted together. She was truly worried that these items had an unorthodox origin.
Xiaoya pouted immediately.
"Elder Sister, did you do something wicked again? If that's the case, Mother and I will definitely not live in that mansion."
Lin Xiaoye smiled: "It seems like you really do want to live in a big house."
"I…" Xiaoya's face instantly turned red.
"Don't worry, the money came from the right way. Besides, Huo Li's hunting luck is good these days, so we don't have to worry about that. Right now, the most important thing is to take care of our bodies, otherwise, even if we get rich, we won't lose any weight, right?"
With that, she brought the porridge on the table over for Wang-shi to eat.
Lin Xiaoye looked at the skinny appearance of Wang-shi and Xiaoya, and secretly clenched her hands.
It seemed like she had to hurry and find a way to earn more money. Looking at Wang-shi, she was truly pitiful. Wang-shi treated her like the original owner, and even now, she was still thinking about her.
Thinking about this, a hint of sadness suddenly appeared in Lin Xiaoye's heart. It had been a while since she came here and she wondered how her family was doing in the modern world.
They must be worried about her disappearance, right? Or perhaps, they were still searching the entire world for her?
Wang-shi felt a bit more at ease after hearing Lin Xiaoye's words.
Although she still didn't know how Lin Xiaoye managed to earn that much money, she was very happy to see her daughter pull herself together.
Following that, Lin Xiaoye brought over the lunch she prepared earlier. When Wang-shi and Xiaoya smelled the fragrant aroma, they immediately swallowed their saliva.

Xiaoya immediately ran to the table and saw several dishes and meat on the table. Her eyeballs were about to fall out.
"Elder Sister, did you make all this?"
After saying that, Xiaoya couldn't help but swallow her saliva.
Lin Xiaoye raised her chin slightly and nodded with a smile.
"These are all good dishes that I'm good at. Hurry up and help mother over. Today, our family will have a good meal."
After that, Xiaoya and Wang-shi looked at the dishes on the table and found it hard to start eating.
Lin Xiaoye first scooped a bowl of soup for each of them, then she scooped a bowl for Little Mochi.
Xiaoya was holding the soup in both hands. Within the soup were eggs and meat paste. The smell was really fragrant.
After Lin Xiaoye took a sip of the soup, she tried its saltiness and nodded.
"En, the taste is pretty good."
At a glance, she saw Xiaoya and Wang-shi only staring at the soup in their hands and not bringing it to their mouths.
"Mother, Xiaoya, why aren't you guys eating? You don't like the food?"
She also felt that the taste was not bad, but she felt that something was missing.
Just as she was thinking, she heard a sob and saw Xiaoya looking at Wang-shi with teary eyes.
"Mother, it smells so good. Xiaoya has never smelled such a fragrant aroma before."
After saying that, Xiaoya's tears fell.
At this moment, Wang-shi also began to wipe her tears away.
"That's right, but isn't Mother the same?"
In the past, she could still smell a bit of meat in her maiden home every new year festival. However, ever since she married into the Lin Family, her days had never been good.
Thinking of the sufferings she had gone through, Wang-shi couldn't help but wipe her tears away.
As for Little Mochi, he was drinking the soup while staring at the two of them with his round eyes.
Why are they all crying?
Lin Xiaoye immediately felt a headache.
She was truly afraid of being poor!
"Mother, don't be sad anymore. Don't worry, as long as you want to eat meat, I will make it for you. This soup needs to be drunk while it's still hot. If you delay any longer, it will become unpalatable. Wouldn't that be a waste? Xiaoya."
With that, Lin Xiaoye quickly motioned to Xiaoya.
Xiaoya glanced at Lin Xiaoye and immediately came back to her senses. She quickly wiped the tears off her face and nodded.
"That's right, Mother. No matter what, this was Elder Sister's craftsmanship. Let's hurry up and drink it, don't waste it."
After saying that, Xiaoya took the initiative to hold the bowl up and prepared to drink.
As for Wang-shi, after hearing this, she didn't care about being sad anymore and also picked up the bowl and drink.
Only then did Lin Xiaoye heave a sigh of relief, then she gave them chopsticks.
At the moment, Xiaoya was holding the bowl and subconsciously looked at Lin Xiaoye. She didn't know what to feel anymore.
When did Elder Sister learn how to cook? And still has money to buy meat?
It's delicious!
Xiaoya thought as she took a sip of the soup. She didn't expect that the soup was even better than what she had imagined.
Xiaoya raised her head in shock, "Elder Sister, you made this soup?"
Lin Xiaoye nodded in disapproval: "Why? It doesn't taste good?"
Xiaoya instantly widened her eyes, "Elder Sister, this...this is too delicious. I've never tasted such a delicious soup before!"

Delve
Summary – Level 1: Delve is an isekai litrpg that follows an average guy who just happened to wake up in a forest one day. He wasn’t summoned to defeat the demon lord or to save the world or anything like that, at least as far as he can tell. The only creature there to greet him was a regular old squirrel. Soon enough, he meets other people, only to discover that he can’t speak the language, and that not everybody immediately trusts random pajama-wearing strangers they met in the middle of the wilderness. Things generally go downhill from there, at least until the blue boxes start appearing. Delve is a story about finding your way in a new, strange, and dangerous world. It’s about avoiding death, figuring out what the heck is going on, and trying to make some friends along the way. It’s not about getting home, so much as finding a new one. Did I mention that there will be math? Summary – Level 2: Okay, but what are you in for, really? Well, this story is supposed to be realistic, or at least, as realistic as a fantasy litrpg can be. The main character doesn’t instantly become an all-powerful god and murder-hobo his way across the universe. Delve is, at its heart, a progression fantasy, but that progression is meant to feel earned. The numbers in this story actually mean something. Everything is calculated, and if you find a rounding error, I expect you to tell me about it. That said, if math isn’t your cup of tea, there is plenty more that the story has to offer. Characters are meant to feel real, and progression isn’t only about personal power; it’s also about allies, connections, and above all, knowledge. Figuring out how the system works is a significant theme. ... What, you want more details? Okay, fine, but this is going to get a bit spoiler-y. Are you sure? Yes! Really sure? I mean, this summary is practically half as long as the first chap– Now! Okay, okay! The main character becomes a magic user, but he takes a route that is not very popular in adventurer culture, namely that of a support. There is a full magic system with various spells, skills, and abilities, but our MC decides that aura magic is the way to go, and that the only stat worth investing in is mana regeneration. Most people at the Adventurer’s Guild think that this makes him a bit of a dumbass, but he’s playing the long game. We’ll see how that works out for him, won’t we? Because of his build, the MC levels up fast, at least compared to normal people. There are no cheats, though, and he is limited in other ways. There are some clear and pretty obvious downsides to his build. That’s what makes it fun, no? Morals? Our MC has them. Again, we’ll see how that works out for him. Realism, remember? Would you be okay with killing someone and looting their body? I sure hope not. POV? The focus is on the main character, but there will be occasional varying perspectives from people around him, or involved in the events related to the main plot. It isn’t going to jump all over the place. Tech is standard medieval stasis. No smartphones, but the MC does have a technical background. Computers and their programming might be involved. There might even be a bit of uplifting down the road, who knows? Anyway, it isn’t the focus. He isn’t going to invent the gun in chapter 1 and change the face of warfare. Romance is not a major focus. Friendships are more the name of the game, though there will be some characters in romantic relationships. There is exploration, though not as much of the geographical nature as you might expect. It is more about exploration of the system and the culture. The pace is slow and detailed, sometimes verging on slice-of-life. The action is meant to be realistic and grounded in the numbers, and it is intended to have meaning beyond simply punching things until they stop moving. The general tone of the story is grey, and some parts can get quite dark. People die. Sometimes, people with names, but not anywhere near GoT level. There is plenty of light, too, though, to balance the darkness. The world is dangerous, but overcoming that danger is why we’re all here, isn’t it? Anyway, if you’ve made it this far through the summary, you clearly like words. I hope you enjoy the story! Cover by Miha Brumec Summary Updated: 2020-06-14

Falling
It is often unclear when a thing comes to an end, the world itself no exception. In the event of the world ending, it was both abrupt and unnoticed, something down right confusing to most involved. Due to this confusion, we will quickly cover the short window of events that led to the destruction of the generally known universe, following the primary instigators to hopefully give the whole thing a little much needed context. ... Author’s Note: I intend to release regularly, hopefully weakly, within the planned three arcs. However, it may go on hiatus between arcs, but it should be clear that an arc has ended. Regardless, I currently plan to go on hiatus after the third arc, which is intended to be a natural breaking point. This is with the hope of not dropping off in the middle of narrative, and I am mentioning it now so no one is surprised if there are planned pauses. Content Warnings: I do not plan to include anything I would see as profanity, gore or traumatizing content. However, I do expect my bar for what qualifies is both above some people’s and below others. Therefore, I am including the Content Warnings so people are not surprised when my view is different. If you find something you do not like, I wish you luck in moving on without it farther concerning you. If I was not as extreme as you were hoping, I apologize for not meeting expectations. I have not marked sexual content, since I do not intend to include explicit sexual acts. However, sex and sexuality still exists and may come up as both an offscreen event or subject. Cover Art: The art work is by me, and I will take it down immediately at request from the artist.
