There was a sandy area outside the second team village, but it was mixed with a lot of stones and covered with many shrubs and weeds. However, the area was really spacious, which attracted Yu Lili.

Yu Lili is in her thirties. After getting married, she became a housewife and took care of two children.

She hasn't made any money in seven or eight years, but she doesn't have any skills and can only farm.

She had no hope at first, but Shen Xue Ning came back and called on everyone to farm. Isn't this giving her a chance? She must seize such a rare opportunity.

But the family didn't have much land, and other people in the village had occupied the land or rented it, so she could only find a way to reclaim it.

When it comes to land reclamation, she immediately fell in love with this piece of wasteland. There are more than two acres of flat area. When the time comes, she will ask an excavator to tidy up the surrounding area and it will be possible to clear five acres of land. It is enough for her to plant so much by herself.

Yu Lili came to the wasteland early in the morning with a sickle, squatted down, and cut the grass handful by handful.

It is still early in spring, so there is no rush to hire an excavator. She can take her time. If she can't make it in time, she can hire an excavator. After all, hiring an excavator costs money.

Fang Ru, a fellow villager, passed by and called Yu Lili: "Lili, are you also reclaiming wasteland?"

Yu Lili raised her head and said, "Yes, seeing how enthusiastic the villagers are, I can't help but feel anxious. I also want to give it a try."

Fang Ru smiled and said, "To be honest, seeing everyone doing this, I was also quite nervous. So I planned to go to my mother's house to clean up the wasteland and plant vegetables. There is no one at my mother's house anymore, so the land is just sitting there empty anyway."

Yu Lili said, "Sure. We can clean it up now and plant the seeds when the weather warms up."

"That's what I think. I won't talk to you anymore. I'll go over there first." Fang Ru waved her hand and left quickly.

Yu Lili smiled and couldn't help humming a little tune.

Soon, Yu Lili's parents-in-law came. They held farm tools in their hands and helped with the work silently without saying anything.

I am the only child in the family and all the money I earn belongs to the family. There is no reason for them not to help. Instead, they are very proactive in helping.

My mother-in-law asked curiously, "Lili, what are you going to plant in this field?"

Yu Lili had already thought about this and said, "Plant peanuts on one half and sweet potatoes on the other. They both like to grow in sandy soil, so it's suitable for them."

Grandma nodded: "Yes, sweet potatoes and peanuts are suitable for growing in sandy soil."

My father-in-law couldn't help but say, "But this land is too thin, how can it grow well?"

Yu Lili said, "I will go to Xue Ning to buy pig manure fertilizer and plant it in the fields. I will apply more fertilizer when the time comes. I think the crops I grow will not be bad."

Seeing that Yu Lili had plans and intentions, the father-in-law didn't say much and just helped with the work.

The mother-in-law whispered, "It's such a large piece of land, why don't you call your son back to plant it together?"

My father-in-law waved his hand in opposition: "The income from farming is unstable. What if something goes wrong and the family loses its source of income?"

The mother-in-law thought about it and realized that this was the truth: "Then let's wait and see."

Yu Lili had no plans to call anyone back. This was the first time her family tried farming, and she didn’t know how the income would be. What if the income was not good, wouldn’t that delay the business?

There are many people who think like her. In fact, the countryside is quite good at this. One person takes care of the children and the elderly at home and cultivates a few acres of land, while the other person works outside to earn money. In this way, even if the money earned is not much, it is enough for the family to live on.

……

Shen Baohong went to have a dinner with his classmates. As soon as he came back, he kept talking to Shen Xue Ning: "Xue Ning, do you know? Several of my classmates have come back to farm."

"My classmates all did better than me in college, but now they have all returned to farming."

"And I'm younger than them, but they actually call me brother. They have such a sense of superiority."

"Now they are very polite to me. It really is true that money makes the world go round."

Shen Xue Ning was not a person who would spoil the fun. Seeing Shen Baohong's excited face, she said, "You are now a rich man in the village. Apart from me, you are the richest, right?"

Shen Baohong laughed: "Yes, so they are all polite to me. No, everyone is polite to me. Many people call me to have dinner with me, ask me to set up a relationship with them, and ask me to do things for them. I am like a popular person in front of the emperor now!"

Shen Xue Ning couldn't help laughing when she heard those words: "Is this an exaggeration?"

Shen Baohong said: "It's not an exaggeration at all. I even think it's too low-key."

Shen Xue Ning smiled and said, "You should be more low-key. Maybe your classmates are flattering you on the surface, but they are jealous of you in their hearts. You should be on guard against others."

Shen Baohong had not experienced those evil things in the world, but she had learned a lot from following Shen Xuening: "Really?"

Shen Xue Ning naturally didn't dare to say anything too absolute: "I don't know whether it's true or not. I haven't come into contact with your classmates. But as I said, you should be on guard against others."

Shen Baohong nodded: "I understand. I'll keep a low profile in the future and I'll drive the one that costs over 100,000 yuan."

Shen Xue Ning smiled: "It depends on the occasion."

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Juan came back from outside: "Baohong, why are you still here? Your mother is looking for you everywhere."

Shen Baohong was confused: "Why does my mother want to see me?"

Liu Juan said mysteriously: "You will know when you go and take a look."

Shen Baohong was a little afraid to go back, and pestered Liu Juan and asked, "Third Uncle, just tell me directly, otherwise I won't go back."

Liu Juan patted Shen Baohong on the shoulder and said with a smile: "If you don't go back, your mother will beat you. Go back quickly, it's a good thing."

Shen Baohong looked at Shen Xuening: "Xuening, will you come home with me?"

Shen Xue Ning smiled and said, "If you can't do it, can I do it?"

Shen Baohong patted his chest and said, "You should feel more at ease in my heart."

Liu Juan pushed Shen Baohong and said, "Go back quickly. Your mother is still waiting for you. She called you but you didn't answer. She is very worried."

"Then I'll go back and take a look." Shen Baohong went back trembling with fear. When he reached the courtyard wall, he turned around and said to Shen Xue Ning, "Come and save me later."

Shen Xue Ning smiled helplessly: "Okay, I'll go with my mom to rescue you in five minutes."

Only then did Shen Baohong return with a fearless attitude.

Generally speaking, his mother would not look for him unless it was something serious or important, which resulted in him feeling very panicked every time his mother looked for him.

Shen Xuening waited until Shen Baohong walked away and then asked Liu Juan: "Mom, what's going on?"

Liu Juan smiled secretly: "Three matchmakers came to his house at the same time to introduce girls to him. Now it depends on which one he chooses."

"Three?" Shen Xue Ning couldn't help laughing, "This is really a fierce competition."

Liu Juan laughed: "Yes, Baohong has become a hot commodity."

Shen Xue Ning said in a teasing tone: "Baohong is now a rich man, and he is also handsome. It is normal for someone to like him. Now is the peak period for matchmaking, and only three matchmakers came to find my cousin. I think it is too little."

Liu Juan smiled even more happily: "Some people are asking about Yingying and Wenxu's preferences, and want to introduce them to someone."

Shen Xue Ning laughed: "They are being targeted at such a young age?"

Liu Juan said happily: "Yes, more than one person told me so."

Five minutes passed in just a few words, and Shen Xuening and Liu Juan went to the eldest wife's house together.

……

The Shen family’s house was newly built. Although it was not a villa, it was a new-style courtyard with flowers and water. It looked very beautiful, and many people liked to visit them.

At this time, the yard was crowded with people, at least twenty or thirty people, and Shen Baohong was surrounded by everyone, like a monkey in a zoo.

Shen Baohong's face was full of helplessness: "Aunts, I appreciate your kindness, but I have someone I like, so you should go back first."

Matchmaker 1: "You must be fooling us. I haven't heard that you have a girlfriend."

Matchmaker 2: "Yes, your mother just said no, you must be lying to us, Baohong, you are our child who grew up, we will definitely not harm you."

Matchmaker 3: "Yes, the girl I like is very good. She graduated from a key university and is two years younger than you. Her age is just right."

"..."

Shen Baohong was in a state of panic: "Aunts, I really didn't lie to you. I really have a girlfriend and she will be here soon. If she knew that you came to matchmake with me, she would definitely be unhappy. Everyone, go home."

"Since you said you have a girlfriend, then tell us, who is your girlfriend?"

"Yes, as long as you tell us, we will leave immediately."

"You can't fool us. Don't accept fooling. The truth will come out in the end. If we knew you were fooling us, we would definitely come to your door."

"..."

Mrs. Shen also looked at Shen Baohong with anticipation. She also looked forward to having this daughter-in-law. If her son had a girlfriend, she would like her as long as the woman had good character.

When Shen Baohong was about to speak, he saw Shen Xue Ning: "Xue Ning also knows the person I like."

As soon as they heard Shen Xuening's name, everyone's attention immediately shifted to her.

Shen Xue Ning immediately said: "I'm here to watch the fun, I won't say much."

Mrs. Shen spoke expectantly, "Baohong said he has a girlfriend, someone you know. Do you know who she is?"

Shen Xue Ning smiled and said, "I do know him, but I'd better let my cousin tell you."

Everyone shifted their attention to Shen Baohong again, staring at him with eyes full of determination, determined to make him tell the truth or they would not give up.

Shen Baohong was helpless and raised his hands in surrender: "I'll tell you, the girl I like is Han Yifei, Xue Ning's legal advisor."

The whole audience was silent for a moment.

Mrs. Shen said in disbelief: "Baohong, Han Yifei is a girl from City A, and her family is wealthy. How could she like you?"

"Mom, don't be so unconfident." Shen Baohong vowed, "Your son is not bad now."
