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 329: In Machinery, In Technique

When Chunyu Yan arrived, Feng Yun was busy in the study.

This study had been tidied up before the new year; it faced the south and finally basked in the warm sunlight.

But Feng Yun wasn't resting; instead, she knelt on the cotton mat in front of the table, instructing Sister Xu on the matters of spring plowing and planting.

Sister Xu had come from the countryside and had experience with planting on the farm, but while she knew how things were done, she often did not understand why they were done.

Xiaoman listened in amazement, frequently asking questions, "Even before planting, how can you know the harvest will be poor this year?"

Sister Xu said, "Because it's already March, it's too late for tilling the land and sowing."

Xiaoman still didn't understand, "How does being late in sowing affect the harvest?"
