The Comeback of the Charming Farmer's Wife

"Alright!"

Having said that, Xiu’er cut four or five more sugarcane, then broke them into separate sections.

By the time they came home, there was still some time before lunch. At that moment, Ye Zi’an and Mu Shaoling had already come out of the study. Little imp Luo Linhao had stopped practicing and was excited to see them bring back a basket full of sugarcane, bouncing with joy.

"You know, Sister-in-law, your family’s living conditions are really good," Luo Linhao said while gnawing on a sugarcane, "Back when I was in Capital City, I couldn’t enjoy such things in my mouth."

"Capital City is a wealthy place, so wouldn’t these things be rare but not completely unavailable?"

"Sister-in-law, you don’t know how hard it can be to live in Capital City." Looking at his age, she couldn’t help but want to laugh at his frustrated expression while eating sugarcane.

"Don’t laugh, sister-in-law! To tell you the truth, my father is a military officer, so he is quite rich. I should have had access to these things, but I was unable to in Capital City." As he said it, he took another big bite, "Humph, when I go back to the Capital, I’ll buy a piece of land and grow these things just to make those little bastards jealous."

Upon hearing this, Yang Chuxia raised an eyebrow, thinking that Old Mu and Brother An’s mother must have had similar lives as concubines’ children. Those children of concubines rarely had good lives in such big aristocratic families, especially when someone like Old Mu was rarely at home, it’s quite normal for children to not get what they want.

She couldn’t help but feel some pity for Luo Linhao.

She said, "You can eat as much as you want since it’s not that valuable here anymore."

"It’s a shame I won’t be here for long." Luo Linhao sighed again.

"What do you mean? Are you going back to Capital City?"

Luo Linhao sighed again but asked curiously, "Don’t you know? Brother Shaoling is going to cure my eyes. Once they are cured, I’ll have to go back to the Capital City, but I’m not sure. Since my father is a soldier, I should join the army once I return."

"Can your eyes be cured? Is there a confirmed method?" Yang Chuxia asked with surprise before saying, "That’s a good thing! Then you won’t have to wear an eyepatch anymore."

"Tsk, sister-in-law, your tone makes it sound like me wearing an eyepatch is really bad." Luo Linhao bit another piece of sugarcane and said, "I knew you women always say things you don’t mean. Initially, sister-in-law said that I looked handsome with an eyepatch, but now the truth has come out, huh?"

"Pfft..." Yang Chuxia laughed, "You do have quite a good memory, little imp."

Yang Chuxia saw that Mu Shaoling was also casually gnawing on sugarcane and asked, "When will he start his eye treatment? Will it be here?"

"Wait until October when the weather gets cooler, as it’s easier to get infections in hot weather." Mu Shaoling gave it some thought and continued, "I’ll take him back to Mu’s Clinic later."

Yang Chuxia nodded upon hearing this.

She was quite happy for Luo Linhao. If his eyes were to be cured, it would mean he now had hope for his future. Although this kid can be cheeky and bold when he speaks, he is very calculating inside. Although he has returned to his usual playful self, he has changed a lot.

While they were talking, Yang Chuxia said to Xiu’er and Ming Liu, "You two, go deliver some of this sugarcane to each family."

"Yes!"

When Luo Linhao heard that the sugarcane was to be delivered to others, he quickly said, "Leave some more for me, don’t give it all away."

Yang Chuxia said, "Look at how anxious you are, we can always cut more from the field if it runs out."
