Exiled to Lingnan, the Crown Prince's wife raises children, cultivates the land, and leads the

"Mother, I'm planning to go for a walk in the mountains to see if I can find something to eat."

We hadn't even entered Sanming Mountain yet, and we hadn't passed any inns for several days; we had been sleeping outdoors all day.

"Don't worry about An'an coming with me. Be careful, don't go too far."

Liu Suyi had gotten used to Cheng Qiqi liking to find food nearby.

Jin Sui'an stood beside Liu Suyi and said, "Mother, I'll be a good girl and stay with Grandma. I'll add firewood for her!"

"it is good."

Cheng Qiqi pinched her little face. Even though she had tried her best to keep up with the nutrition, the little girl was still visibly thinner on the way to exile!

"Sister-in-law, shall we go see if we can find any wild vegetables?"

Jin Xuan'er carried a cloth bag. Ever since Wangjing Town, Jin Xuan'er had practically become Cheng Qikai's little shadow.

"Sister-in-law, I'll go with you."

Gao Shenglan, the new daughter-in-law of the third branch of the family, also spoke up, saying, "My mother-in-law said she hasn't been feeling well lately, so I'll go with you."

"Okay, let's go together."

Cheng Qiqi was quite familiar with Gao Shenglan. She had heard that Gao Shenglan's family owned a martial arts school, and sometimes she would like to spar with Gao Shenglan to see how skilled she was.

"My sister-in-law isn't feeling well either; she's been sick the whole way here," Jin Xuan'er said weakly. Her sister-in-law, Meng Jingyao, was even less healthy than her mother-in-law!

Fortunately, she was not well treated in the household since she was a child, and now that she is being exiled, she is one of the healthier ones.

"Me too, sister-in-law, I'm pretty lucky, who knows, I might even dig up some potatoes." Jin Qing couldn't help but chime in, she was completely impressed by Cheng Qiqi's cooking skills!

Even wild vegetables can be made exceptionally delicious by Cheng Qiqi.

"Xue'er, you come along too!" Lin Huilan urged Jin Xue'er, who was standing to the side, as she saw Cheng Qiqi and the other three going to dig for wild vegetables nearby.

Jin Xue'er glanced at it and said, "I'm not going."

She couldn't stand Jin Xuan'er and Jin Qing'er fawning over Cheng Qiqi.

A country girl? She's actually the daughter of a noble family!

"What will you eat if you don't go?" Lin Huilan wanted to cry to the Marquis like she did in the manor, but the Marquis ignored her completely, either making her do chores or go to collect firewood.

"You go if you want."

Jin Xue'er sat down angrily on the ground. She was worse off than a pig, even though she walked and ate pig feed every day. She stretched out her hands and looked nothing like a young lady anymore. Suddenly, she was filled with sorrow.

"Go ahead, but if I end up picking up wild rabbits or pheasants, don't regret it."

Lin Huilan turned and left. Upon hearing this, Jin Xue'er quickly followed. She also wanted to eat meat. If Cheng Qiqi could do it, so could she!

In the mountains of Sanming, Cheng Qiqi was focused on finding places where she might be able to dig up potatoes and sweet potatoes.

"hiss"

Gao Shenglan suddenly clutched her stomach and leaned against a tree to stop.

"What's wrong with you?"

Cheng Qiqi turned around and saw that Gao Shenglan's face was a little pale.

"My stomach just doesn't feel well, maybe..."

Gao Shenglan was embarrassed; her period hadn't come since she was exiled.

"Has your period started?"

Cheng Qiqi looked at her belly and said, "Then you rest here, we'll go look for it."

"It's okay, I'll be fine after a while."

Gao Shenglan took a deep breath.

"Yes, Sister-in-law Shenglan, you should rest. It's so uncomfortable when your period comes!" Jin Xuan'er felt her scalp tingle just thinking about her period. Those few days of traveling were truly like living hell!

"Found it!"

Cheng Qiqi's excited voice rang out; she had finally found the potatoes!

"Sister-in-law, I'm here." Jin Xuan'er came over with a stone in her hand.

"Xuan'er, you dig here, I'll go look around elsewhere."

As Cheng Qiqi spoke, she found another good spot nearby, took out the potatoes and sweet potatoes she had just dug from her space, and then covered them with a similar layer of soil to make it look like they had just been dug up!

Cheng Qiqi squatted on the ground and dug and dug. She dug up a lot of potatoes and sweet potatoes. When she saw that she had dug up enough, she started to pick cabbages. Wild cabbages, well... not surprising, right?

Cheng Qiqi really wanted to eat cabbage seedlings, so she plucked a whole bunch.

With the cheat code of the space, Cheng Qiqi quickly reaped a bountiful harvest. Suddenly, her eyes lit up when she saw the small river beside her, and she immediately rushed over.

"Fish! I caught a fish!"

One, two, three...

As Cheng Qiqi released fish into the stream, she began catching them as well.

She's been raising fish in the space for three years, and there are so many that they're almost overflowing!

"Wow, so many fish!"

Gao Shenglan, having calmed down, was stunned to see the fish swimming in the stream: "Runzhi, come quick! There are so many fish here!"

Although fish meat has many bones, fish soup is very nourishing!

Soon, everyone gathered by the river. Jin Runzhi was the fastest, rolled up his sleeves, and started catching fish.

"Let's go back and make some fish soup!"

Cheng Qiqi, carrying the fish, remembered the potatoes and sweet potatoes she had dug up. "Wait, there are still sweet potatoes and potatoes here!"

"Sister-in-law, how do you always manage to find so many good things?"

Gao Shenglan was stunned. This pile of potatoes and sweet potatoes, although she was tired of eating them, was still better than going hungry!

"Maybe I was just lucky?"

Cheng Qiqi smiled, picked up the fish, potatoes, and sweet potatoes, and went back.

Jin Xuan'er wrapped the potatoes in her prison clothes and said, "Sister-in-law, the potatoes I dug up aren't as big as yours, and there aren't as many as yours."

"Small potatoes taste like small potatoes."

Cheng Qiqi thought: The plants in the space were all carefully cultivated by her in the Marquis's mansion, which must be different from those that grew wildly.

"You caught so many fish?"

Liu Suyi was stunned when she saw the three plump fish that Cheng Qiqi was carrying.

"Mom, they've all gone to catch fish. We'll have fish soup tonight."

Cheng Qiqi figured that since she had released so many fish into the river, the Jin family must have caught quite a few, so she processed all three fish!

Sure enough, before the fish were even half-processed, Marquis Zhongyong returned with seven or eight fish. He gave half to Scarface Zhang and then placed the rest in front of Cheng Qiqi.

"Dad, you guys are amazing!"

Cheng Qiqi's words were true; the fish in the space were exceptionally active, and catching them was no easy feat!

"Let's keep it in a tank for two days, then I'll go catch it."

As he spoke, the Marquis of Loyalty and Valor ran towards the riverbank again!

Cheng Qiqi was not lacking in seasonings at all. So, she first scooped out some oil from the jar and fried the fish on both sides, then added ginger to remove the fishy smell, and then poured in boiling water. The milky white fish soup smelled delicious!

"vomit."

Gao Shenglan was helping out when she smelled the fish soup, and her stomach churned instantly.

"Shenglan, what's wrong with you?"

Cheng Qiqi, who was standing to the side, quickly handed over a glass of water: "Here, rinse your mouth. Are you cold?"

Although it's warmer in Lingnan than in Kyoto, it's still cold as winter approaches.

"I don't know, I just felt really nauseous from the smell of the fish soup."

Gao Shenglan covered her nose and kept her distance.
