《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!"

Child of the Ancients: An Apocalypse LitRPG
It all started in the middle of Dante's nap. He wanted to sleep his life away, but the system denied his request. Instead, it began to transform the Earth, integrating it into the multiverse by granting everyone stats and skills. He was talented, or so the system thought. And that meant he needed to be challenged. After being sent into a deadly cavern, Dante strives for the future he's always desired. But when he learns about the secrets hidden within him, he's shaken to his very core. He wishes for the nightmare to end until something goes wrong. [The world will end in one year.] Instead of everyone receiving a relatively gentle tutorial, the people of Earth are deemed redundant. Dante makes it his goal to save as many people as he can before the world ends, but with billions of lives at stake, he might have to turn into a monster before he can become a hero. Planned updates (2500+ words): M/W/F. 12pm AEST/ 9am EST. M-F during Writeathon. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Author's Note: All system apocalypse novels seem to jump straight over the apocalypse itself, which I find very sad. I don't want this to turn into a typical fantasy novel in about ten chapters. Instead, I hope to explore the destruction of society and how things would look if superpowers suddenly appeared in the real world. Before the real apocalypse happens, of course. There will be base building, and likely romance once things settle down. Also dragons, because they are awesome :)
