The Reborn Wife is Farming

Chapter 448: Accident

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Starting from the first season’s vegetables, the vegetables from Mu Yangling’s farmstead would appear in the market about 20 days ahead of others’ every season.

From supplying restaurants and eateries to rich families, Zhu Liang gradually expanded the business. Because their prices were high and they supplied early-season vegetables, it did not affect the vegetable farmers and commoners near Lin’an City much. Therefore, it did not cause much conflict.

Without anyone noticing, Mu Yangling earned her first bucket of gold after coming to Lin’an Prefecture. The amount was quite considerable.

When Zhu Liang handed the account book to Mu Yangling, he was also very emotional. He really did not expect vegetables to be so profitable.

At night, the account book in Mu Yangling’s room appeared on the Emperor’s desk. The Emperor flipped through it and asked, “How’s the profit?”

“Your Majesty, it’s only been two seasons, but she has already earned 655 taels of silver just from vegetables.”

The Emperor couldn’t help but sit up straight and ask in surprise, “So much?”

“Yes, I heard that they’re even going to scale up further. Next year, they might have to grow vegetables on two more hills and expand their business to the two nearby cities. They’re also asking about the prices of the nearby mountains and fields.”

The Emperor knocked on the table and pondered. “So back then they really bought these lands to earn money?”

The secret guard looked at the Emperor silently.

“How are their fish and ducks?” Since the hills that he’d presumed would lose money were actually profitable now, what about the riverside depression?

“I’ve asked someone to listen to their discussion. The fish is doing very well. At the current price, it’s bound to be profitable. But we won’t know just how profitable it is until they cast the net. As for the ducks, they’ve already begun to lay eggs.”

“So that’s also turned profitable.” Revealing a smile, the Emperor said, “In that case, there’s no need to keep such a close watch. Just leave one person there to keep an eye on them, and transfer the others back.”

The secret guard heaved a sigh of relief. To be honest, it was really boring to keep an eye on that farmstead. It was filled with all kinds of farming matters and had no value at all. Moreover, the farmstead almost had no defense power. It was too unchallenging.

The Emperor threw the ledger back and said, “Return it.”

The secret guard picked up the ledger and left.

At night, Mu Yangling passed by the desk when she was about to fall asleep. When she saw the ledger on the table, she couldn’t help but stop in her tracks. She tilted her head and looked at the account book for a while, then went forward and flipped through it. With a smile on her lips, she tossed the account book back on the table before climbing into bed.

Qi Haoran was already snoring on the bed with his arms and legs spread out. Mu Yangling crawled over him and lay down in a comfortable position to sleep.

Qi Haoran smacked his lips, turned around, and pulled her into his arms, continuing to snore. Mu Yangling, on the other hand, was lost in her thoughts. Who would touch her account book?

Although security at her residence was not as tight as her sister-in-law’s, it was not so easy to get past Spring and Rain to touch her things.

Spring and Rain knew her habits and never touched the things on her table. As for Qi Haoran, glancing at him, Mu Yangling decided it was pretty much impossible that he would touch her account book. Perhaps in their next life.

Mu Yangling secretly investigated for half a month but couldn’t find anything, so she temporarily cast it aside. The wheat in the farmstead had already begun to be harvested, and the rice was about to ripen. Mu Yangling wanted to personally take a look at the harvest of the experimental field.

The carriage had just turned the corner when a few carriages rushed over. Mu Yangling heard Wen Cui crying. “Eldest Madam, Eldest Madam, hang in there…”

Mu Yangling lifted the curtain and a carriage happened to stop beside her.

“What happened?”

The person in the carriage opposite stopped crying. Then, Wen Cui quickly lifted the curtain and shouted, “Fourth Madam, Fourth Madam, Eldest Madam fell. Please save Eldest Madam!”

Ignoring everything else, Mu Yangling jumped out of the carriage and lifted the curtain of the adjacent carriage. Li Jinghua was lying in Wen Mian’s arms with a pale face. Her dress was covered in red.

Mu Yangling turned pale with fright and shouted, “Call the guards over! Get them to call the doctor and Fourth Master back immediately! Hurry!”

Mu Yangling got into the carriage and carried Li Jinghua down. As she ran in, she said, “Go find the midwife and order the kitchen to boil water immediately.”

Someone in the carriage behind shouted anxiously, “Hurry up and move the carriage in front. Our madam’s carriage is going in.”

Wen Cui, who was following closely behind Mu Yangling, turned around and glared at the person who spoke. She spat before chasing after Mu Yangling.

The servant girl who spoke was shocked and dissatisfied, but she did not dare to say anything at this moment.

The people in the carriage discussed for a moment before getting off the carriage and walking into the Qi Manor. At this moment, they did not care that they were still outside the Qi Manor. Li Jinghua’s situation was more important.

Mu Yangling carried her all the way back to Zhaode Hall as she comforted her in a low voice. She carried her into the delivery room and carefully took off her pants. Seeing that although there was a lot of blood in her pants, it was no longer flowing, she felt slightly relieved.

She turned her head and asked Wen Cui with a sharp gaze, “Where’s the midwife? Why isn’t she here yet?”

“I’ll go take a look now.” Just as she reached the door, she bumped into Spring, who was pulling the midwives in.

As the midwives had already moved into the Qi Manor five days ago, it was not difficult to find them.

The two midwives walked over quickly, and Mu Yangling quickly gave up her seat to them. “How is it?”

“Eldest Madam is about to give birth. Quickly get someone to prepare boiling water and scissors.” Midwife A paused and said, “I wonder if the baby was affected by the fall earlier. It’s best to get a doctor to take a look.”

Judging from the blood volume, it was not particularly dangerous. They had encountered situations more precarious than this, but still they were afraid that something would happen to her baby. Once such a situation happened, if they did not know the details, they might not even be able to save the adult in the end. Therefore, they had to find a doctor to confirm if the baby in her stomach was still alive.

Mu Yangling was also afraid that the baby had been hurt during the fall. Hearing this, she nodded and agreed. She patted Li Jinghua gently and said in a low voice, “Sister-in-law, don’t worry. The midwives are already here and they said that you’re fine. The doctor will be here soon.”

Mu Yangling paused before continuing with a smile, “I’ll get someone to invite the imperial doctor with Big Brother’s invitation, okay?”

Li Jinghua looked at Mu Yangling’s smiling face and felt slightly relieved. She held her hand tightly and said, “Alright, Ah Ling, good sister, I’ll leave everything to you.”

With a smile, Mu Yangling said, “Sister-in-law, don’t worry. I’m here. You just have to listen to the midwife and the doctor and give birth in peace. Leave everything outside to me.”

Li Jinghua was in so much pain that cold sweat broke out on her forehead, and her face turned even paler. Mu Yangling asked the midwife to come over and check on her. After a while, the midwife concluded that the baby was still alive, but it was best to give birth as soon as possible because Li Jinghua started bleeding again.

Even though Mu Yangling’s heart was burning with anxiousness, she tried her best to remain as calm as possible. She walked out and pulled Wen Cui over. “Does your Eldest Madam still have ginseng?”

Wen Cui almost cried out loud. She shook her head and said, “Last time, when First Master was in danger, our Eldest Madam took it out and used it. Later, she left it in the residence to nurse First Master’s health. The best ginseng we currently have in the storeroom is only a few decades old.”

“What are you crying for? Your Eldest Madam isn’t dead yet.” Mu Yangling snapped angrily, “Call a guard over and say that I have orders for him..”
