Ma Laiwang finally confronts his mother about her interference in his marriage prospects and reveals his intention to propose to Luo Qiaoqiao. His father agrees, and they, along with Lin Xiaoling, prepare for the proposal. Luo Qiaoqiao accepts Ma Laiwang's proposal, and they agree to move out after marriage, setting their wedding date.

After everyone departed, Yang Ruxin couldn't suppress a giggle. In a mere two hours, the long-standing marital issues of Luo Qiaoqiao and Ma Laiwang had been resolved. Wasn't that simply efficient and tidy? She found this approach quite pleasing.

The climate was warming, prompting villagers to shed their heavy cotton attire for lighter jackets. Yang Ruxin's own belly continued to expand, and she even began to experience noticeable fetal movements.

Meanwhile, the content of Gu Qingheng's letters shifted from accounts of hardship to reports of triumph.

Yang Ruxin understood that warfare could not be entirely devoid of negative consequences. Earlier, the troops under Prince Yun had suffered significant casualties, and Gu Qingheng himself had narrowly escaped death, facing enemies who were remarkably well-trained monsters.

Naturally, she recognized his intent to shield her from worry, so she feigned belief in his words. However, the apprehension within her heart steadily intensified.

By the middle of the month, Gu Yao could no longer bear to remain inactive and proposed joining Gu Qingheng to offer assistance. Erni no longer voiced any objections.

Yang Ruxin provided Gu Yao with a large eagle, entrusting him with the mission to swiftly convey any developments from the front lines.

As March drew to a close, the medicinal wine workshop was completed, not only constructed but also equipped with a substantial wine cellar.

Concurrently, a stone bridge was erected, significantly improving the Yang Family's access to the village.

Given that the enterprise would produce a range of medicinal wines and teas, the workshop was strategically divided into two distinct sections: one dedicated to the drying and preparation of medicinal herbs, and the other for the brewing process.

Yang Ruxin lacked the capability to brew wine herself and could not produce modern brewing apparatus. Consequently, she had to rely on the existing brewing techniques of the era. Initially, they would procure spirits for subsequent processing; should the market demand grow, they might consider establishing their own brewing facilities. Regardless, the Hao and Qin families, being involved in the grain trade, offered a distinct advantage for brewing.

Indeed, medicinal wines were a known commodity during this period, readily available in numerous apothecaries. However, her proprietary medicinal wines possessed unique advantages, such as the pure well water from her secret space and medicinal herbs that were beyond the reach or capability of imitation by others.

The initial workforce comprised a modest twelve individuals, all of whom signed both employment and strict confidentiality agreements. Ma Laiwang was among them.

“Xinxin, are we truly capable of cultivating medicinal herbs?” inquired an individual who had not been selected.

“Absolutely,” Yang Ruxin affirmed with a nod. “While I possess my own medicinal field, it will likely prove insufficient if sales escalate. Therefore, provided you cultivate medicinal herbs that meet the required standards, the workshop pledges to purchase all that you grow. We can formalize this with a contract. Should I fail to uphold my end, you have grounds to sue me at the Governor’s Office. Conversely, if your cultivation falls short, I would be entitled to seek compensation from you.”

“However, we lack the knowledge for planting herbs.”

“Guidance will be provided, and we can even supply you with seeds.”

“Very well, I shall sign the contract with you.”

“Me too…”

Yang Ruxin expressed surprise at the villagers’ unprecedented eagerness, which kept them occupied for the better part of the day until things gradually settled.

“Xinxin, why don’t you delegate tasks to me, and I’ll assist you?” Dong Wenxiu said with concern for her daughter. “You are heavily pregnant, and it genuinely worries me.”

“Mom, I am perfectly fine,” Yang Ruxin replied with a smile. “Once everything is organized, I will no longer be actively involved. Besides, I have been seated throughout, so it’s hardly tiring.”

“Very well,” Dong Wenxiu conceded with a sigh. “Then I shall check if there is anything suitable to eat and bring it to you.”

Yang Ruxin inclined her head in agreement.

Mere moments after Dong Wenxiu's departure, Hao Jian and Qin Shou entered, their faces alight with smiles. “Sis, everything is prepared. We are simply awaiting the signal to commence.”
