Transmigration with QQ Farm

Chapter 5.1

She noticed that she didn’t have much gold left, along with just a few bundle of hays remaining. She couldn’t raise chickens and rabbits with hay. And if she didn’t have the gold to buy them, she would have to grow them herself.

She couldn’t vegetables or hays from other players when her dimension was independent. She needed resources, and neither buying or planting were good options right now.

How could she resolve the hay issue?

Just when she was wondering about this, a system voice resounded inside her head,?“Replying host: At this stage, you can subst.i.tute white radish sprouts for hay.”

White radish sprouts?

Her black eyes beamed. She smiled and ran outside of the cottage immediately. Examining the ten fields of ripe white radishes, she had another question.

After the first harvest, she only saw white radishes in the warehouse, she didn’t see any white radish sprouts!

“Replying host: Host can instruct white radish sprouts to be converted into hay and send to the farm.”

“Excellent!”

Finally she was fully relieved upon hearing the last answer. One of the most important problem has been resolved. From now on, not only could she harvest white radishes, she also wouldn’t need to worry about having hay.

She sighed quietly and get to work. Immediately she harvested all the white radishes. She ran back inside the cottage to check, sure enough white radish sprouts had been converted into hay.

If white radish sprouts can turn into hay, surely anything that she grow from now on could also be converted into hay!

Second time harvesting white radishes, she had ama.s.sed tenths of pounds of white radishs inside the warehouse. If its just the family alone, this could last them up to ten days. But, of course, they would need more than just white radishes. She should do some resesarch on what other vegetables to grow.

Of the ten fields, she planted cabbage in five of them and garlic in the remaining five. Once she was done with the planting, she bought five more chickens and five more rabbits to raise.

Taking care of all these took her quite a bit of them. She was quite sleepy when she returned from the dimension. She fell asleep with her little sister in her arms.

The next day, after breakfast, Cheng Xiao Xiao and her two brothers picked up the machetes and the ropes and headed into the mountains.

“Big sister, are we going to go catch more chickens today?” Asked Cheng Zheng Bin with a big smile on their way.

It wasn’t just him, even Cheng Zheng Yuan looked longingly at his big sister. To the two kids, the chicken meat from last night was too delicious. Of course they would like to catch more chickens today.

Cheng Xiao Xiao glanced at her two brothers. Of course she could read their mind, she smiled and replied, “Okay, we will go look. If there are more chickens, we can go catch them.”

“Yay, big sister! From now on we can have meat every day!” Cheng Zheng Bin exclaimed excitedly.

Have meat every day?

That’s a wish?

Looking at how happy her two younger brothers were, Cheng Xiao Xiao had a bitter smile and sighed, What a simple wis.h.!.+

The three of them quickly arrived at the same area that they were at yesterday. After they have stopped, Cheng Xiao Xiao did not immediately take her brothers to the cave. They took a quick break and letting her brother tend to the firewood needs first before they go “catch” chickens.

Chapter 5.2

The morning went by without them knowing. They have collected two big bundle of firewood and nicely tied them up.

“Big sister, are we going to go catch chickens now?” Cheng Zheng Bin couldn’t stop thinking about the chickens.

Cheng Xiao Xiao smiled quietly. She looked at the mid day sun, sat under a tree and wiped off her sweats. Then slowly she said, “No rush, the day is still young. Let’s first go collect some herbs for dad. We didn’t get any yesterday, we must bring some back today.”

Cheng Zheng Bin pressed his lips together and didn’t say anything else. He was quite aware of dad’s condition.

On the other hand, Cheng Zheng Yuan was baffled, “Big sister, we never hired a doctor to check out dad. Is it okay we just collect random herbs to treat him?”

“Don’t worry, I know what I am doing!” Cheng Xiao Xiao let on a confident smile. She was, after all, a Chinese herbalist. Even though she didn’t have experience treating patients at the bedside, she was quite familiar with Chinese herbs. She knew the common herbs that were good for diffusing bruises, helping broken bones or nerves, and relieving?both pain and swellings.

Not to mention that in an ancient forest like this, these common herbs could be found all over. It wouldn’t be difficult for her to find what she needed.

Contrasting Cheng Xiao Xiao’s confidence, Cheng Zheng Yuan were still feeling skeptical and uneasy, hesitantly he said, “But, we don’t have a prescription, nor are we familiar with herbs. Big sister, you have knowledge in herbs?”

As far as Cheng Zheng Yuan was concerned, he knew that his big sister was literal, and helped out with a lot of housework. But he had no idea when she gained knowledge in herbs.

The younger Cheng Zheng Bin stared with his black eyes and bluntly asked, “Big sister, you have never been an apprentice of a doctor, how did you learn about herbs?”

“Eh…” Cheng Xiao Xiao didn’t expect that question and it took her by surprise, but she would need to make up something. “I have read a few medical journals in the past and read about herbs and their usage. We should be able to find what we need in this mountain. Besides, we can’t afford a doctor right now, so might as well collect some herbs and give that a try.”

After her explanation, the two brothers didn’t know how to respond. Neither one of them was sure whether their big sister had read medical journals in the past. But they both feed bad about dad being badly injured and has been bed-ridden since.”

After Cheng Xiao Xiao and her brothers ate three white radishes that she had secretly produced, she led her brothers to look for herbs in the mountain.

Meehan’s mint, Szechuan lovage, nut gra.s.s, dong quai (“female ginseng”)….

They collected more and more. The brothers collected a lot under the instructions of Cheng Xiao Xiao. When she thought they had about enough, she called to her two brothers.

“Big sister, is this enough? Are these enough to cure dad? If not, I can keep picking!” Asked Cheng Zheng Yuan with a serious look and a bundle of herbs in his arms.

Cheng Xiao Xiao collected the herbs from her brothers, resting and sorting them out, “I am not sure either, but let’s give these a try first. If dad starts to get better, we can always come back for more.”

“Okay! We will come and collect herbs for dad every day from now on! We can’t afford a doctor, we will try to cure him ourselves!” Shouted Cheng Zheng Bin loudly.

Cheng Xiao Xiao took a look at him and smiled helplessly. She had no heart to waiver their confidence. They can cure dad’s external wounds, but as for the rest…..
