Refusing to marry a widower, I went on a crazy spree of sending my children to the army.

Chapter 575 I know, I know, but we must believe in science!

Qiao Manman laughed: "You have quite a few ideas!"

"If Ji Ming comes back and manages to get cinnabar, that would be best. But if not, don't worry, you can use other materials instead!"

In reality, these materials are completely unnecessary. Letting them find them is just a smokescreen, a way to conceal the location.

Xia Zhao nodded: "Okay, I'll talk to him!"

"You've worked hard. Take a shower and go to bed early!"

"Sister-in-law, Old He just called. I told him you were resting, and he hung up. Do you want to call back now?"

Qiao Manman glanced at the time and called the Academy of Agricultural Sciences.

The phone rang only twice before someone answered: "Hello, is this Manman?"

"Grandpa, it's me. I'm at the old house. Aren't you off work yet?"

"The wheat seedlings have withered and died. I'm so anxious, I can't sleep. Girl, what are we going to do if we can't grow crops on this land anymore?"

"It can always be resolved. Maybe it's just that the weather hasn't been very good this year. After a couple of rain showers, everything will be fine."

He Dechang laughed: "My Manman's words are auspicious; it seems this year's harvest will be quite good!"

"It can't be bad, it can't be bad at all! Where's Grandma? Is she there?"

“She’s here, I’ll let her answer the phone!” He Dechang said, handing the receiver to Li Hailian.

"Hello, granddaughter, it's grandma!"

"Grandma, Manman misses you so much! I'll come see you when I'm done with all this, okay?"

"Okay, okay, Grandma will be waiting for you at work!"

Qiao Manman glanced out the window: "It's getting late, you should get some rest!"

"Okay, Grandma will go back to the dormitory now. You and Xiaoyuan should also rest before doing anything."

After hanging up the phone, Qiao Manman went for a stroll in the yard.

The crescent moon hung in the sky, but the moonlight was deathly pale.

Qiao Manman casually threw a handful of grass seeds on the ground, thinking that the worst outcome would be that the grass seeds wouldn't sprout.

To everyone's surprise, they visibly shriveled up, their vitality completely drained away.

"This is really troublesome!" Qiao Manman sighed, then crushed a Spring Breeze and Rain Talisman she had drawn herself.

The weather above the old house changed rapidly, and soon, a few raindrops began to fall.

Qiao Manman reached out and felt a warmth fall into her palm. The black mist on the ground in the courtyard gradually dissipated.

Those seeds that had lost their vitality did not regrow.

But the seeds that Qiao Manman threw out again gradually sprouted in the rain.

Those inside who came out and saw this scene stared in astonishment, their eyes wide: "Sister-in-law, is this the power of talismans? It's amazing!"

Qiao Manman made a "shh" gesture: "I just got lucky, don't talk nonsense!"

"I know, I know, but we must believe in science!"

Qiao Manman nodded: "That's right!"

Half an hour later the rain stopped, and the air was filled with the scent of damp earth.

Qiao Manman took a breath and felt refreshed, both physically and mentally. The others also clearly felt the difference.

"Sister-in-law, it really works!"

"Absolutely, otherwise I would have come all this way for nothing!"

After Qiao Manman finished speaking, she went back to her room. She then went into Lu Yuan's spatial dimension to find materials to draw talismans.

How can I help you?

"Grind the material for me, the finer the better!"

After saying that, he took some readily available items to use.

Qiao Manman picked up her pen, took a deep breath, and wrote the entire piece on the paper in one go.

Unfortunately, being a mortal, the talismans she drew had limited effects, so she could only rely on quantity.

Qiao Manman drew and drew, gradually becoming engrossed in her work, a thin layer of sweat appearing on her forehead.

Lu Yuan didn't dare to disturb her, so he carefully went out to prepare food for her.
