Siheyuan (traditional courtyard house): 52 years of farming, producing hundreds of millions of tons

Chen Xueru had drunk a little too much.

"I guess this is what talent is?"

Wan Ping'an smiled.

The farming system is unique; it is a system centered on him and wholeheartedly serves him. Calling it a talent wouldn't be wrong!

"talent?"

"I've heard from the elders that hard work is worthless in the face of talent."

"I didn't believe it before, but I do now. Compared to your talent, the efforts of others are worthless. You can easily crush them!"

"Such a powerful talent, I want it too!"

Xu Huirong was very envious.

As they drank, the two women drank even more.

Chen Xueru feeds Wan Ping'an wine.

Xu Huirong was not to be outdone.

"No, we can't continue like this."

"If this continues, something bad could easily happen."

Wan Ping'an called over a waiter and had him lead the way, helping the two beauties to Xu Huirong's boudoir. He was almost pulled inside by her legs.

Close the door.

Wan Ping'an fled in a sorry state.

night.

It was almost dark when Sha Zhu finally returned from the six acres of land.

"Silly Zhu, you just got back too?"

As Sha Zhu approached the courtyard, he heard footsteps behind him, followed by Yi Zhonghai's voice.

"Grandpa, are you working overtime?"

Sha Zhu nodded.

"I had a batch of parts that needed to be rushed out, so I came back after I finished processing them."

Yi Zhonghai lied.

He deliberately waited in a corner, and when he saw Sha Zhu return, he came out from the corner and chased after Sha Zhu from behind, pretending it was a coincidence.

"Silly Zhu, it's been a long time since we've chatted. I just bought some meat, come on, have a couple of drinks with me."

Yi Zhonghai held up the half-pound of meat in his hand.

Having just entered the new society, resources were scarce.

Ordinary families don't buy meat by the pound, they buy it by the ounce. If they buy a few ounces of meat, half a pound is quite a lot!

"No, my dad is still waiting for me at home."

Sha Zhu shook his head.

He recalled He Daqing's lesson.

If He Daqing sees him with Yi Zhonghai, he'll definitely teach him a lesson.

"Okay, I won't make things difficult for you."

Yi Zhonghai smiled.

He had been prepared for it.

He and Sha Zhu returned to the courtyard house one after the other.

When Sha Zhu got home, only He Yushui was home. He Yushui told Sha Zhu that He Daqing had gone to cook for someone and wouldn't be back until very late.

He Daqing left boxed lunches for the siblings.

He Yushui finished eating.

Sha Zhu's food was being heated in the pot.

"Silly Zhu, come out here."

Yi Zhonghai came to find Sha Zhu.

"Master?"

Sha Zhu was a little surprised. Why was he here again?

“I heard from your aunt when I got home that your dad went to cook for someone. You haven’t eaten yet, so come on, let’s go to my house and have a couple of drinks.”

Yi Zhonghai didn't give Sha Zhu a chance to refuse and dragged him away.

soon.

The two arrived at Yi Zhonghai's house.

"Come on, have a drink!"

Yi Zhonghai poured wine for Sha Zhu.

"How can I let you pour the wine, sir?"

Sha Zhu snatched the bottle from him.

He poured the wine.

The two chatted for a while, and then both became slightly tipsy.

"Sigh, you haven't visited the old lady lately, have you?"

"The old lady is getting on in years and doesn't have a good appetite; she's lost a lot of weight."

Yi Zhonghai sighed.

"Weren't things fine just a couple of days ago?"

Sha Zhu thought back and realized that he had been leaving early and returning late late at night recently, and hadn't seen the old lady for a few days.

He really misses the deaf old lady.

The deaf old lady was very kind to him.

"The old lady is getting old. As people get older, all sorts of ailments arise. It's normal for her to have minor illnesses and a poor appetite."

Yi Zhonghai sighed.

"Silly Zhu, the reason I invited you here for drinks is actually to ask you for a favor."

"The old lady has a poor appetite. If we give her something good to eat, like the tomatoes Wan Ping'an grows, her appetite will definitely improve."

"I need your help to bring an old lady a tomato."

Yi Zhonghai stared at Sha Zhu.

This is his plan!

The tomatoes weren't big; I could just put them in my pocket and bring them back easily, without them being noticed.

Once Sha Zhu agrees and does it the first time, he'll do it countless times!

"Isn't this not good?"

Sha Zhu frowned slightly.

People working at Liu Mu Di are very happy. Wan Ping An personally promised them the benefits: they can eat any of the produce from Liu Mu Di.

of course.

There are limitations.

Only eat it yourself, or give it to your closest relatives.

Wan Ping'an said that the closest people to him only include his children, parents, siblings, and spouse; people outside this range are not eligible.

Sha Zhu can bring delicious food to He Yushui and He Daqing, but he can't bring it to the deaf old lady and Yi Zhonghai!

"Silly Zhu, the old lady treats you very well, doesn't she?"

"The old lady has a poor appetite and can't eat anything. I asked you to bring her a tomato, not to kill or commit arson. Why are you making excuses?"

"The old lady has been so good to you, is this how you repay her?"

Yi Zhonghai slammed his wine glass on the table!

Bang!

This startled Sha Zhu.

The deaf old lady was indeed very kind to him, but he didn't know that she was kind to him for a reason, not out of a desire for something in return.

"Alright, I guess I misjudged you!"

"I thought you were a good child, compassionate, loving, and kind."

"It seems you and Wan Ping'an have gone astray and become cold-blooded!"
