The Slender Waist

The day the city fell, Feng Yun was treated by her father as a spoil of war and presented to the enemy general. Everyone pitied her, soon to be a captive, plunging into a fiery pit. Yet she veiled the little donkey cart that took her out of the city tightly, daring not to let anyone see the secret delight in her heart… As a child, she behaved oddly and spoke startling words, once predicting a war in which the whole army was wiped out, nearly being burned to death by her clan as a demon. When she grew up, her beauty was out of the world, but she was rejected by her husband's family. In the period of chaos and disorder everywhewe, where could a female captive go? "I do not seek a devoted partner to grow old with; I merely wish to rule unrivaled in this life." In her previous life, Feng Yun was always the one being scorned by others; in this life, she decided to strike first, turning the tables on each and every one of them, those so-called unreachable flowers and beasts in gentleman's clothing, those degenerates… all to be scorned in return.

Chapter 332 Urgent Crisis

After several busy days, the fields of the estate were almost completely turned over. Feng Yun inspected the condition of the paddy and prepared to start raising seedlings first.

On the day of raising seedlings, several judicial officers and military officers just happened to come over to discuss matters and gathered around to watch.

Feng Yun didn't place the seedlings directly in the field to grow but instead arranged a special warm room for the rice seeds, setting up several layers of bamboo shelves. She placed clay from the fields above, evenly scattered the rice seeds on top, and used charcoal in the room to provide warmth and heat. The room was airtight, and someone was assigned to add water regularly...

Aunt Xu was also standing by, staring agape with astonishment.

"When the mistress had people fix up the room, I had no idea what it was for. Oh my, so it turns out it's for the rice to live in," she said.

Everyone laughed together.
