The water had been poured, the fertilizer had also been applied and was just waiting for the seeds.

Huo Li frowned. "I'm afraid it'll be useless."

Just as he was thinking, he didn't know that Lin Xiaoye was already holding a big pile of pig grass.

"Don't just stand in a daze, come and help me."

Huo Li stepped forward and took the pig grass from her hands, then carried it to the edge of the land.

"Hold those other things over there."

Huo Li asked in confusion: "What is this going to do?"

Lin Xiaoye said with a smile: "Didn't you just say that what we did was useless? I'll do magic and show you that in our yard, we can grow vegetables even in winter."

With that said, Lin Xiaoye started to use the pig grass to make a grass curtain.

Huo Li was still baffled, let alone understand what magic is.

However, watching Lin Xiaoye working, he followed suit.

Lin Xiaoye was thinking while she's working. She doesn't have the money to buy oilcloth right now, so she could only use this grass curtain for cover. When Boss Zhang made some money after a while, she would go and buy oilcloth.

"Go and get some woven bamboo, I will need it later."

"En." Huo Li agreed softly and left.

Perhaps neither of them knew that they had actually lived a life of mutual understanding.

When the grass curtain was ready, Huo Li came over carrying the woven bamboo over his shoulder.

Following that, Lin Xiaoye stuck the bamboo deeply into the ground that was surrounding the land, then she covered the grass curtain. With Huo Li's help, not only did Lin Xiaoye save a lot of trouble, she was also able to move a lot faster.

When the sky turned dark, the grass shed was also set up.

Lin Xiaoye clapped her hands.

"It's done. We will have to busy ourselves in the future."

After saying that, she looked over and saw Little Mochi squatting at the entrance of the yard and playing with the stones on the ground. Seeing a small child squatting there by himself, she couldn't help feeling sad.

It seemed like she had been too busy recently and had even forgotten to worry about Little Mochi. Unfortunately, he was an only child. It might have been better if he had a brother or a sister.

It's just...

As she thought about it, Lin Xiaoye looked at the handsome guy beside her. He was handsome alright, but she couldn't really do anything to him just because he was handsome, right?

Besides, she might have to go to town in the future. What if Huo Li didn't want to go? Also, the original owner must have disliked him a lot.

Thinking about that, Lin Xiaoye sighed.

Forget it, let's stop thinking about those things. It's best to think about how to make life better for now.

Thinking that, Lin Xiaoye quickly cleaned up the courtyard and went into the house to prepare dinner.

What she didn't know was that Huo Li had been staring at her ever since.

There wasn't much food left in the house. In addition to them, Wang-shi and Xiaoya also had to eat, so the food in the house was soon finished.

Lin Xiaoye could only make some wild vegetables and stir them up together with an omelet. She made a fried egg with some wild vegetables and also took out a bit of the coarse grain flour from before. However, she wasn't just making coarse grain pancakes, there were also a lot of wheat bran mixed in the coarse grain flour.

She mixed it with some sweet potatoes. These sweet potatoes were both fragrant and sticky, and also very sweet.

As she was preparing to cook the pancakes, Lin Xiaoye suddenly started to worry.

Although she was confident that her diet soup could be sold, she didn't know how much money she could make. Moreover, she had already taken out all the food in the house, so even if she made money, what she would eat in the next two days was still a problem.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiaoye suddenly twitched her mouth. If something really did drop from the sky, it would be good for her to fill her stomach for the next two days.

Wait! How about fish?

Suddenly, the fish she saw by the river that day appeared on her mind, causing her to be overjoyed.

"That's right. Fish. I can go fishing!

There were so many fish in the river that she realized that no one in the village seemed to be fishing. Wasn't that silly? The fish in this natural water is very nutritious and its meat is very delicious. It was just at this time, they will go down into the river because of the cold.

However, even eating was a problem now. Who cares if it was cold or not?

With these thoughts, Lin Xiaoye suddenly saw the light in the dawn of life again. She even gained quite a bit of energy to make the pancakes and she even began to hum a little tune.

Meanwhile, at this moment, Huo Li and Little Mochi, who were in the room, were both stunned when they heard Lin Xiaoye's humming.

Little Mochi pulled Huo Li's hand and grunted twice, looking at Huo Li expectantly.

"I don't know."

He had never heard what song Lin Xiaoye was humming, but it seemed rather nice to hear.

"Time to eat!" Lin Xiaoye shouted.

While they were eating, Lin Xiaoye asked, "Are you going up the mountain tomorrow?"

Huo Li's expression darkened. "I'll go earlier."

If he was a bit earlier, he might be able to hunt a prey.

Lin Xiaoye nodded, "Then if you don't have anything to do when you come back, you can go to the river and take a look. I saw a lot of fish by the river the other day."

"En." Huo Li answered simply.

In his heart, he felt that this was a good idea. However, the river water would probably be ice-cold and bone-piercing.

"I need to go out tomorrow morning too, Little Mochi…" Lin Xiaoye looked carefully at Huo Li.

Little Mochi was his darling. She had to go out tomorrow morning, so it wasn't appropriate for them to leave Little Mochi alone at home.

Huo Li raised his eyebrows at her and asked, "Where are you going?"

Lin Xiaoye quickly put down her utensils and told Huo Li everything that had happened between her and Boss Zhang.

She thought that now, after all, they were living together and they were husband and wife, so she had to be honest with him. It was best to explain this kind of thing to him.

After hearing what Lin Xiaoye said, Huo Li immediately looked up at her in surprise.

How could she know so much? It was one thing for her to possess inferior medical skills before, but now, she could even write prescriptions?

As he thought of this, Huo Li raised his eyebrows and looked at Lin Xiaoye.

However, he had observed her for so long, yet he couldn't see any other motives from her. Could it be that after dying once, she thought it all through?

Seeing Huo Li not responding after a long while, Lin Xiaoye became worried.

Could it be that he doesn't want her to do business with Boss Zhang?

This village was too feudal. Even women couldn't go out and show themselves. Did Huo Li think so too? But hadn't he never cared about the original owner before?

Having this in mind, Lin Xiaoye said carefully: "About that, I didn't mean anything else. It's just that the sky is getting colder and colder, and it's really hard to find prey on the mountain. There aren't even many wild vegetables left. Isn't it nearing the end of the year? I was thinking that when the New Year comes, I can also make some new clothes for Little Mochi to celebrate it."

After that, Lin Xiaoye broke out in a cold sweat.

Huo Li loved Little Mochi the most, so he wouldn't refuse, right?
