"Yes, yes, yes. Let's shamelessly eat here today." The head of the village said happily to Chu Laosi, and his heart was full of anticipation for the new food.

"Okay, I'll listen to you. I'll go back and pack my things first and come back later." Chu Lao Si said and went back to the old Chu's house. The head of the village was chatting with Chu Lao Er in the house. Qin and Qing He went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Qinghe used the fermented dough to steam multi-grain buns and corn cakes, and took out some corns from the space and cooked them in the pot. Then she used another pot to cook pork ribs and corn, pork stewed with potatoes, pickled cabbage, flavored eggplant, tomato and egg, stir-fried pork belly, and egg drop corn soup. Before these dishes came out of the pot, the village chief arrived and Chu Laosi also brought his things over, which only had a few sets of clothes and nothing else.

The head of the village, the chief, Chu Laosi and Chu Laoer's family had already smelled the delicious food and were drooling. They looked at the food on the table that they had never seen before, which was so delicious and attractive that they couldn't wait to eat it. However, in order to maintain their dignity, they endured it until the meal started.

"Grandpa Lizheng, Grandpa Village Chief, Fourth Uncle, Dad and Mom, this is the new food I mentioned. Today I made pork ribs corn, boiled corn, corn buns, corn cakes and egg corn soup. Please try it and see how it tastes. This is the crop I will plant on the wasteland in the future. Please try it and see how it tastes." Then he took out a jar of wine and poured a glass for everyone. Although they really wanted to taste the wine, they all knew that wine was precious.

"He girl, how can you drink alcohol? It's such a waste. It's good enough for everyone to just have some food. But you can't drink alcohol." The head of the village couldn't help but speak out. It was really unacceptable to eat such delicious food and then waste alcohol.

"Yes, yes, yes, the food on today's table cannot be eaten even during the Chinese New Year. We can't waste any more wine." The village chief also stopped them.

Although they both couldn't bear to drink the wine from Chu Laoer's house, they didn't take their eyes off the wine and watched eagerly. Qinghe found it funny. People in ancient times were really short of supplies. They could even put on a show just by drinking. It can also be seen from this that the two grandfathers are not greedy and considerate of others. Qinghe wanted to let the two grandfathers drink whenever they want every day in the future. No longer worry about not having money.

"Grandpas, this is the wine I brewed myself. Would you like to try it and see how it tastes?"

Everyone present was so shocked that their eyes widened in disbelief: "Girl, is this really the wine you brewed yourself?"

"Yes, this is rice wine. The alcohol content is not high. The brewing method is simple. Let's try it first to see if it tastes good. You can taste it today."

Chu Lao Er and Qin also echoed: "Yes, yes, yes, today the fourth brother came back and divided the family again. Let's eat well today and celebrate."

"Okay, okay, then we won't be polite. Let me tell you that the people in the Chu family are blind and stupid. They will live a better life after being separated. Fourth brother, look at how comfortable your second brother's family is living after being separated." The head of the village did not forget to comfort Fourth Brother Chu.

"Uncle, I know. My parents didn't like me since I was little. My second brother and his wife took care of me. My second brother was paralyzed in bed, so they separated me from them for fear of being dragged down. Now they drive me out of the house just to get a tael of silver a month to support my brother's studies. It's really heartbreaking. I will live a better life with my second brother's family in the future."

"Uncle, let's eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks from today on, and make others envious. Grandpas, mom, dad, uncle, let's eat quickly!"

The head of the village and the village chief were no longer polite and happily asked Qinghe to pour them some wine.

Qinghe picked up a piece of corn for his father who was sitting in a wheelchair, and everyone started eating it. The corn was golden and attractive, sweet and soft, and everyone felt it was delicious. After the meal, there was not much left on the table, especially the egg drop corn soup. Qingyue and Qingli liked it very much last time. Today, each of them drank two bowls and still felt it was not enough. Qinghe stopped them abruptly, saying that they were still full.

Looking at the clean table, the head of the village and the village chief were a little embarrassed. The food was so delicious and the wine was so tasty.

The village chief had never seen corn before. When he suddenly ate this kind of grain, he only had time to ask what the name of this grain was at the dinner table. He didn't care about anything else and just ate it.

The village head said with a little embarrassment: "He girl, this corn is so delicious. If it can really produce high yields, we won't have to worry about food and clothing in the future. Don't worry, I will find someone to plant it for you tomorrow. How many seeds do you have? How many acres do you want to plant?"

"Grandpa Lizheng, I have more than 200 kilograms of seeds, which can probably plant 50 to 60 acres. I'm not sure. Tomorrow I will tell everyone how to plant. You will know after planting. After the harvest in autumn, I can save the seeds and sell them to the villagers who want to plant. If they don't want to plant, they can come and plant for me."

"He girl, my family also has two acres of newly reclaimed wasteland. Can you plant some crops with me?" The village chief was enjoying his meal tonight and couldn't help wanting to plant some crops himself so that he could eat some of the harvest. In order to satisfy his appetite, the village chief was willing to give it a try.

"Okay, you can plant it in advance to set an example for the villagers. Maybe everyone will be more active in the future. The village head can also plant some." Qinghe looked at the village head and said if he also wanted to plant, she could give some to him.

"Thank you very much, Grandpa. I also have two acres of newly-opened land at home. I'd like to buy the seeds from you. How much do you need? I'll bring it to you tomorrow."

"There's not much seed left for two acres of land, so I'll give you some. Just return it to me after the harvest."

"Okay, then tomorrow, Fourth Uncle will lead us to plant corn, and the village head will just watch us reclaim the land. In a couple of days, I will buy a cow to help plow the land, so that the reclaiming speed will be faster."

"Okay, don't worry, Fourth Uncle promises to plant the land well." When Chu Lao Si heard that he had a job to do, he immediately agreed with a smile.

After talking about farming and reclaiming wasteland, Qinghe talked to the head of the village and the village chief about leading the whole village to make money and get rich together.

"Grandpa Lizheng, Grandpa Village Head, a few days ago, Grandpa Lizheng came to me and talked about helping everyone make money. I thought about it carefully and felt that our village has mountains and water, and the geographical conditions are good. So I thought that everyone should raise chickens, ducks, geese, and pigs. I will buy as many as each family raises, including the chicken, duck, and goose eggs they produce. Later, I will collect these livestock and sell some fresh meat. I want to open a factory in the village to make meat products, so now I have to buy a piece of land to build a factory. Once the factory is built and the livestock are raised, we can start normal production and make money."

"This method is very good, but if the whole village raises them, can you eat them all?" The head of the village and the head of the village listened to Qinghe's plan and thought that this kid was really brave, but they were also worried that it would not work and would backfire.

"Grandpa Lizheng, the amount in our village may not be enough. I want to collect some from nearby villages, especially in the early stage when we raised very few and it was not enough. Duck down and goose down can be used to make cotton-padded jackets and quilts, which are warmer than cotton. Pig hair can be used to make toothbrushes, and chicken feathers can be used to make feather dusters. We can also use their feces to make fertilizer for crops, which will greatly increase our future crop yields."
