Locked: God is the matchmaker, neither you nor I can escape

The village chief was tactful and did not continue to disturb them. Anyway, the Li family was usually responsible for the reception, and if he was asked to do the reception, he would be afraid that he would not do a good job!

Xin Ye was recognized as the best cook in Dashan Village, and the village chief was not worried at all that the adults would not be able to get used to the country food. Besides, Yan was a rich lady, and she had a young master at home, both of whom were interesting nobles from the upper class, and would be better at entertaining adults than an ordinary man like him.

The village chief took his leave with peace of mind and went home for dinner. All the way, he couldn't suppress the smile on his face.

Under his management, Dashan Village was actually praised by the emperor. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival, he will definitely go to burn incense for his ancestors and take a good look to see if there is any smoke coming out of the ancestral graves.

After Lord Feng put away his luggage, he did not rush to let Ren Huaimin take him to visit Xin Ye's house. Instead, he pulled him to his bedroom, closed the door, and whispered to him about Li Yan's situation.

Ren Huaimin guessed that he would ask, but the truth was, he didn't know much. Thinking that Xin Ye had no intention of hiding anything, he told him what he knew.

Lord Feng was completely shocked and confirmed again: "You said Li Yanshi is the eldest daughter of the Hua family in Shacheng?"

"Yes, those three young masters are all from the Hua family." Ren Huaimin added, "Anyway, that's what they said. We haven't met them, and we don't have any connections to verify their identities. They said so, so we just listen to them. Anyway, who they are, what does it have to do with us?"

Ren Huaimin did not guarantee their true identities, but he was willing to trust them. There was no interest involved anyway, so he could just treat them as ordinary friends and relatives.

Lord Feng understood what Ren Huaimin meant, but even if he didn't remind him, he would have someone verify their identities.

It is unbelievable that the only daughter of the Hua family would marry a country boy!

Suppressing the shock in his heart and holding a skeptical attitude, Lord Feng followed Ren Huaimin to visit Xin Ye's home.

Compared to Ren Huaimin and Lord Feng, the five guards they brought with them were even more shocked by what they saw.

Look, what did they see?

Suddenly, there were several more pots in an ordinary yard, and a group of guards were busy around the stove, their skills were so skillful that they could be called masters.

If they remembered correctly, these people were the ones who had been making mooncakes with them in the back of the shop this afternoon?

Aren’t they temporary workers hired by the Li family to help make mooncakes?

Father Li came over immediately to greet the guests and explained to them that the people who were cooking were the guards brought by Master Hua, and that the guards could have dinner with them.

Ren Huaimin suddenly remembered that before, there were only more than ten guards and masters of the Li family. It was basically Xin Ye who cooked and the others helped out.

Now that there are more and more guards, it is indeed unbecoming of a master like Xin Ye to hang around the kitchen all day and cook for his subordinates. Now it seems that the guards' cooking skills are not bad, much better than the lady that the village chief found for them before.

Lord Feng secretly looked at other people's guards, then looked at his own guards, and always felt that the guards he brought with him had lost.

Sniffing the fragrance in the air, Lord Feng couldn't help but go into the kitchen to see what Xin Ye was cooking that smelled so good. As a result, the big iron pot was covered with a lid, and the fragrance overflowed with white smoke, making him swallow his saliva again and again.

"Aye, what's cooking in the pot? It smells so good~"

Xin Ye smiled and said, "It's braised spareribs. I still have a lot of dishes to make, so I can't finish them for a while. Lord Feng can go to the vegetable garden to check out the corn and water spinach."

What I mean is, you are disturbing me from cooking here, so go to the vegetable garden and check your task this time.

Lord Feng suddenly remembered that he still had important things to do. After saying a few polite words, he left the kitchen and asked Father Li to take them to the vegetable garden to see the corn and water spinach.

Ren Huaimin looked at the green and different-sized water spinach and asked in surprise, "Brother Li, have you planted another batch of water spinach?"

Father Li nodded: "Yes, we didn't grow enough to eat before. Anyway, there were some stalks left when we plucked them off, so we tried to plant more. The first crop is already edible. The bare patch is what we picked tonight."

Hearing this, Ren Huaimin and Lord Feng's eyes lit up instantly.

Ren Huaimin caught a glimpse of the sweet potatoes and pointed at them, saying, "The sweet potatoes are growing well. Can we sell them now?"

Father Li smiled and said, "Yes, we can pick them in the next few days."

Lord Feng looked in the direction Ren Huaimin pointed, and saw that the sweet potato vegetables indeed looked similar to the sweet potatoes in the fields outside. As for the subtle differences between the two, Ren Huaimin had already told him, so he did not ask any further questions.

But one question still came out: "Is there sweet potato dish on the menu tonight?"

Father Li nodded and said, "Yes, we don't have much at home, but we have enough vegetables and rice to fill us up."

Lord Feng couldn't help but touch his round belly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up. When he thought about these rare vegetables, which neither the emperor nor his father could eat first, he felt inexplicably happy in his heart.

Ren Huaimin's eyes fell on the corn field. If he remembered correctly, this piece of land was for growing corn, so the half-man-high tree stalks in front of him were corn! ?

This is what a corn tree looks like!

Ren Huaimin noticed that some corn stalks had ears growing from the tops of the stalks. He pointed at the ears and asked, "Brother Li, is this the corn blooming? And where does the corn grow from?"

Lord Feng was attracted by Ren Huaimin's words, and he regained his senses from his secret joy. He walked to the cornfield and carefully observed one of his goals in Dashan Village.

Father Li went forward and explained to them, "No, that is indeed a flowering ear, but the corn does not grow at the top, but here. Look, there is already a small bulge here."

As he said this, he walked forward and pointed to the corn cobs on the corn stalks: "When these grow up, they will become the corn cobs that Brother Ren saw before."

"It turns out that the corn is grown here!" Ren Huaimin was extremely surprised. He thought that there were flowers on the corn, and with so many ears in bloom, there should be several big corns hanging from it!

Lord Feng had never seen a corn cob before. He went up to examine it from top to bottom and asked, "Does a corn tree only produce one corn?"

"That should be it? Aye said that when they were picking corn, one root grew on each tree." Father Li was not sure either, as these words were explained to them in advance by Aye's wife.

Lord Feng frowned slightly: "Is this considered a high-yield crop?"

Ren Huaimin said decisively: "Of course it counts! You know, a corn seed is just a tiny grain, and now it grows into a big root, which may have hundreds of seeds!"
