without looking, she knew it contained the Poisonous Insects Lin Zhenghui had caught.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Thank you so much, Master,” she said sincerely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ever since becoming Lin Zhenghui’s disciple, she hadn’t been able to help him much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, she caused him to run around everywhere for her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At his age, he still couldn’t retire comfortably, which she genuinely regretted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Feeling embarrassed by her formal thanks, Lin Zhenghui turned his head and said, “I’m not doing this for you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I just felt sorry for Jiang’s lad.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu laughed, “Pfft.” Her master’s tone and gestures were just like a child’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes, you care about him the most,” she said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, it was Lin Zhenghui’s turn to twitch the corner of his mouth as if he were being prejudiced.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I heard your second brother shone brightly in the competition at The Eight Academies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems that passing the Imperial Examination will not be a problem for him, and he should be going to the Imperial Academy before the end of the year.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What about you?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are you planning to develop in the Capital?” Lin Zhenghui suddenly asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve already opened a branch of Hua Xiangrong in the Capital.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Toothpaste Shop is also about to be up and running soon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I won’t need to worry too much about Beiyu City from now on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Indeed, I should be heading to the Capital before the end of the year,” Bai Ruozhu answered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Zhenghui nodded, “That’s good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I, the old man, will stay in the Capital with you all, until you secure the position of elder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then I’ll go back to the Northwest to retire.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of her master having to work hard again, Bai Ruozhu immediately said seriously, “Master, rest assured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I will work harder and not let your expectations down.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Good, good,” Lin Zhenghui dropped his joking demeanor, replaced by a look of gratification.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Bai Ruozhu returned home, Jiang Yichun had already come back from the northwest main camp, where he had been busy with the training affairs recently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I heard Elder Lin has returned; did you meet with him?” Jiang Yichun asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu nodded and took the considerately offered handkerchief from him to wipe her hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took the handkerchief and tossed it into a basin, ordering Nanny Zhang to take it away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He did bring back some good news; Elder Shougu gave me a verbal message,” Bai Ruozhu briefly relayed Lin Zhenghui’s words to Jiang Yichun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu took out the box containing the poisonous insects, yet her hands trembled slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, she was a girl, and what girl doesn’t fear bugs?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Furball was still somewhat adorable, which made her barely able to accept its presence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun took her hand and held it in his palm, saying with a hint of distress, “If you’re scared, don’t bother with it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having Furball with you for protection is enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The poison from the poisonous insect in me can also be cured by others; I’ll have someone inquire about it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu immediately objected, “No, we can’t let people ask around; it would expose us!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew her trembling had caused Achun to worry, and she told herself to be braver to prevent him from feeling guilty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Silly girl, I’m just not quite used to it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s beneficial for Furball to absorb the bugs and upgrade, and it doesn’t affect me at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, once it becomes stronger, it can protect me even better, right?” Bai Ruozhu said, “You must not act rashly in this matter, lest it leads to danger.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun lifted her hand to his mouth and kissed it, saying, “You’ve already done so much for me; don’t put more pressure on yourself.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu smiled at him sweetly, “You speak as if I’m sacrificing something for you.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is also in my own best interest, so don’t worry about it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Yichun pulled her into his embrace and gently kissed the top of her head, his eyes filled with tenderness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That night, Bai Ruozhu let Furball eat those few poisonous insects, but she dared not take a closer look at them, fearing the sight would make her uncomfortable and cause nightmares.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, after Furball ate them, although it became excited, it didn’t fall asleep, which meant it had not managed to upgrade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed that those bugs were not enough.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Ruozhu thought for a while and guessed that the higher-grade poisonous insects cultivated by the keepers would probably be more effective for Furball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But where could she find such insects, and who would be willing to give them to her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unable to figure it out, she could only take things one step at a time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lately, the focus at home had shifted to Bai Zepei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aside from the carefully prepared postpartum meals for Wan Caiyue, Bai Zepei also had a special pre-exam meal prepared by Bai Ruozhu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With less than half a month until the exams, Bai Zepei had become even more diligent in his studies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the past few days, Bai Ruozhu finally managed to turn the fish and shrimp from her space into powder.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took out some for Zhang Liliang and said, “Uncle Zhang, this is the upgraded version of my fresh soup powder secret ingredient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just mix a small bowl of it into each jar of fresh soup powder, and it would be best if you did it yourself without letting others see.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Liliang’s expression became serious, and he said to Bai Ruozhu, “Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to keep the secret ingredient safe.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s just hard work for you,” Bai Ruozhu said apologetically.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A bowl in a jar isn’t much, and we don’t deliver that many jars at a time, so how tiring could it be?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll treat it as a way to exercise,” Zhang Liliang said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>",1401,"2026-05-30T14:09:14.316Z","2026-06-01T04:31:25.023Z",1,"novelbin.me","6a604c9b67369e99b303c36b7e8ed3d6d9fa2b11ea8ee25ea077b22ebaff1f34","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-942","abandoned-woman-busy-farming-chapter-940",2707,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fabandoned-woman-busy-farming-cover.jpg"]
