Shi Yi looked at his exposed toes and nodded.

"Thank you, benefactor!" He knelt down and kowtowed to Shi Yi.

"Do you have any more of this chili at home?"

"There's more! I just picked the first crop."

"Okay, carry it on your back and follow me." Shi Yi paid him one or two taels of silver.

The man followed Shi Yi, carrying a basket full of chili peppers.

"What's your name?"

"Oh, my name is Liu Silang."

"Do you still want to live in Liujia Village?" Shi Yi stopped, turned around and looked at him.

"As long as Master Liu is here, my family will not have a good life. Miss, are you willing to take us in? I can sign a contract to sell myself!" Liu Silang stopped suddenly.

"Let me think about it. How are you at farming? Oh, you know how to grow peppers, right?"

"Yes! I'm a good farmer! I'm the only one in this hundred miles who can grow peppers!" Liu Silang's eyes lit up.

"Okay, then you go home first, harvest the peppers in the field, put the things in order, and discuss it with my wife. If you are willing, come here in three days. You sign the contract, but the child doesn't have to sign it."

"Thank you, Master!" Liu Silang was overjoyed. He saw hope in life again.

Shi Yi asked Liu Silang to move the basket of peppers onto the ox cart and left first.

"Uncle He, I'll go buy some other things. Put this basket on the car first."

Uncle He sat on the shaft of the cart and waved his hand: "Go, go!"

Shi Yi went to the dead end again, changed into men's clothes, and went to "Ren Xin Tang".

As soon as he saw her appear at the door, Manager Chen ran out like a wolf seeing meat.

"Afeng, you are here!"

"What happened? Uncle Chen." Shi Yi was also a little panicked.

"Mr. Wang is well now. His chubby son insisted on seeing you and came to the clinic every day to wait for you! Oh, by the way, there is a landlord in the west of our town. His son owed a lot of money to the gambling house because of his gambling addiction. Now his family is selling land! A full 100 acres! One acre for 16 taels of silver, and he also sold two shops."

Shi Yi was secretly delighted that she could finally buy some property.

"Uncle Chen, wait a moment. Is this price cheap?"

Chen Li nodded: "On ordinary days, good farmland usually costs twenty taels of silver to buy!"

"Okay Uncle Chen, I bought it!"

Shi Yi went to the dead end and looked through the space. Excluding the silver from selling ginseng and black bears, it seemed that there was still some money left.

She rummaged around inside and found a golden lock. There was no mark on it, otherwise if someone found Ye Lingfeng by following the object, she would be doomed.

She hit the gold lock twice with a hammer, and then just sell the gold!

He took the flattened gold lock to a pawn shop and pawned it for six hundred taels of silver.

With two thousand taels of silver in hand, Chen Li took Shi Yi to buy one hundred acres of fertile land from the landlord Yang.

When signing the land deed, she used Shi Yi's cursive handwriting so that they would not be able to recognize it and avoid future trouble.

Landlord Yang sent someone to take Shi Yi to see the land.

Now the wheat planted in the field is green and lush. Shi Yi spent an extra four hundred taels to buy all the grain from this crop.

When I returned to Renxin Hall, I saw Xiaopang sitting at the door with a wronged look on his face.

"Master, look! Our benefactor is here!" When Xiaopang's personal servant saw Shi Yi, he was so excited that he was incoherent, because he had been waiting with the master for many days.

Chen Li glanced at Shi Yi and entered "Renxin Hall".

Xiaopang struggled to move in front of Shi Yi, trying to open his eyes that were almost squeezed out by flesh, and said breathlessly:

"Sister, can you save my mother?"

The servant next to him covered his mouth immediately: "Master, I'm a man! Not a sister."

Shi Yi was also stunned for a moment.

He used his five carrot-like hands to pry open the servant's hands and whispered:

"You don't understand! Look at the eyes, they are a pair of mother's eyes."

Shi Yi held the sword, looked into his clear eyes, and thought:

"Well, go back and ask your father. If he is willing to let me treat him and is willing to pay a lot of consultation fees, come here and wait for me in two days."

After saying that, Shi Yi turned and left.

After changing clothes, I returned to the ox cart, where several people who were returning to the village were already waiting.

After returning to the village, Uncle He helped Shi Yi move the peppers into the yard and then went back.

Zhaozhao and Duoduo were not at home either. I don’t know where they went with their master.

Xiaohua was weeding in the vegetable garden in the backyard, while Ye Lingfeng was reading in the study.

Shi Yi leaned over to the window and looked inside furtively. She happened to meet Ye Lingfeng's smiling eyes.

Shi Yi handed him a large, clean peach and said with a smile:

"Husband, please keep this deed. I just bought it. For lunch, shall we have chopped pepper fish head, braised fish, and vegetable fish ball soup?"

Ye Lingfeng took the deed, took a look at it, and put it in the drawer. His ears were filled with Shi Yi's mumbling:

I bought a hundred acres of land with two thousand taels of silver. Should I have made a profit? Last time I sold the black bear for one thousand taels, and this time I sold the ginseng I brought from the Duke of Qing’s mansion for one thousand taels. I bought the land without any capital, so I should have made a profit. Haha, the prince won’t say that I am a spendthrift, right?

"How much silver does one acre of good farmland cost?" Ye Lingfeng took a bite of the peach. It was tender, juicy, big, sweet and delicious!

"Sixteen taels per acre. Including the crops planted on the land, the total cost was two thousand taels."

Shi Yi glanced at Ye Lingfeng secretly and poked her palm guiltily.

"It's a good deal! My princess is really capable!"

Shi Yi's cautious face suddenly brightened up.

"Then I'll go cook!" Shi Yi jumped high and ran to the kitchen.

"Xiaohua, it's time to kill the fish!" Shi Yi shouted, and Xiaohua ran over quickly.

After steaming a big pot of steamed buns, Shi Yi taught Xiao Hua how to make fish balls.

The two of them were talking in low voices while doing it.

"Miss, I've been around He Dazhuang's house and Widow Zhao's house these few days, but I didn't find anything unusual. Could it be that we guessed wrong?" Xiaohua was also a little unsure.

Shi Yi told her that if the opponent could recognize Xiaohua and Zhaozhao at a glance on the busy street and design a perfect chain of steps, he must be very scary if he was not targeting them specifically.

Shi Yi narrowed her eyes and said through gritted teeth:

"The mastermind behind this must have a grudge against our family. The only people in Hejia Village who have a grudge against us are He Dazhuang's family, He Wulang, and Widow Zhao."

Listening to their chattering, Ye Lingfeng focused his mind and slowly extended his mind-reading skills to He Wulang's house.

"You bastard! Why are you acting crazy in broad daylight?!" Zhao Xiaolan dodged He Wulang's kiss and struggled to push him away.

Unexpectedly, He Wulang fell in love with this kind of tone of wanting to refuse but also wanting to welcome...
