The abandoned wife married into a wealthy family, and the scumbag father wailed every night

Everyone in the Gu family stared in amazement at the huge carriage coming towards them.

Sitting in the first carriage was Wang Maolin, who was smiling happily!

As soon as he arrived at the door of the Gu family, he jumped off the carriage swiftly, revealing two rows of white teeth:

"I'm sorry, everyone! The emperor ordered me to transport 100 dan of sweet potatoes, and leave the remaining 100 dan to grow seedlings for planting next year."

After Wang Maolin finished speaking, he looked at Gu Yulang and rubbed his hands nervously before continuing:

"Brother Gu, the emperor also told me to take away the land improvement law you wrote."

After hearing this, Gu Yulang went back to the house and handed the booklet on soil improvement that he had written down to Wang Maolin.

Wang Maolin took the booklet in his hands and read it over and over again with shining eyes, and kept saying:

"Wonderful! Wonderful!"

"Ouch! Why didn't I think of that!"

Seeing that Wang Maolin was obsessed with finding ways to improve the soil, Gu Xiucai led the officers and soldiers to his own cellar and directed them to load the sweet potatoes onto the truck.

Wang Maolin read it for a long time before reluctantly closing the booklet. He looked at Gu Yulang with a touching expression:

"Brother Gu is so meticulous that he was able to figure out such a subtle method of soil improvement from his daily hard work, saving the people of Da Deng from disaster. It is truly a blessing for the people and the court!"

Gu Yulang felt a little embarrassed by what Wang Maolin said.

In fact, all these were figured out by his niece, and he is just a person who benefits from the fruits of his labor. He really does not deserve it.

But he knew that now that things had come to this, he could no longer tell anyone that it was his niece's credit, otherwise he would be guilty of deceiving the emperor. If he was taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives, then their Gu family would be doomed!

Wang Maolin saw that Gu Xiucai was already directing the soldiers to pack sweet potatoes, so he hurried over to help. When the sweet potatoes were almost packed, Wang Maolin looked at the sweet potato flour in the yard and his eyes turned:

"Oh, I came out a little early this morning. My son must be a little hungry now!"

When Gu Xiucai heard him, he immediately ordered Yang to prepare the meal. Wang Maolin saw this and said:

"That would be too much trouble for my sister-in-law. Just make some hot and sour noodles that we had that day. I don't eat much, so three bowls are enough!"

In fact, Wang Maolin meant that he could eat four bowls!

But due to shame, I couldn't say it out loud, so I had to say three bowls. After saying it, I still felt a little regretful!

Yang looked at him in shock. It was already three bowls!

Still not a big eater?!

"Sister-in-law, you don't need to cook anymore. Just roast some sweet potatoes!"

Wang Maolin seemed to be completely unaware of Yang's shock and added happily!

Yang's lips twitched and she hurried into the kitchen to busy herself. If she didn't go, she was worried that this person would eat all the sweet potatoes in their house!

Yang roughly calculated that Wang Maolin brought 10 officers and soldiers, plus himself, a total of 11 people, so he made a big pot of hot and sour noodles and roasted 12 sweet potatoes.

By the time she had made the hot and sour noodles, the sweet potatoes in the cellar had already been packed.

The remaining 100 shi were reserved for cultivating sweet potato seedlings next year. The emperor believed that Gujia Village was a blessed land and wanted to cultivate the sweet potato seedlings in Gujia Village before transporting them to the planting site for trial planting.

Wang Maolin had already smelled the mouth-watering aroma of the hot and sour noodles. As soon as Yang said that it was time to eat, he rushed into the kitchen with nimble movements!

Yang came out and invited the officers and soldiers to come in and serve the meal.

The officers and soldiers looked at each other, not knowing what to do. When they went out to work, usually no one provided them with meals, and food was precious, so they all brought their own dry food.

Finally, it was Gu Yulang who said that everyone should go in and have dinner, and then the officers and soldiers came into the house with gratitude on their faces.

However, they did not dare to eat in the house, but squatted in the yard with their bowls and started to eat!

OMG!

There really is such delicious food in this world!

It's really delicious!

The officers and soldiers ate the sour, spicy and delicious hot and sour noodles and they wished they could swallow their tongues as well!

In the end, everyone drank up every drop of soup in their bowl and still felt unsatisfied!

When Yang saw that they had finished eating, she gave each of them a roasted sweet potato. The officers and soldiers looked at Yang with gratitude.

They never thought that one day they would be able to eat a meal prepared by the uncle's wife herself, nor did they expect that the uncle's wife was so considerate. Knowing that they were not full, she gave each of them a roasted sweet potato!

The officers and soldiers were excited when they smelled the sweet and delicious roasted sweet potatoes in their hands. These were the sweet potatoes they had just loaded onto the truck. It was said that the yield could reach 40 dan per mu!

When they first heard about it, they thought that a grain yield of 40 dan per mu must be very difficult to swallow.

I didn’t expect it to be so delicious!

If they thought the title of Earl was a bit far-fetched before, now smelling the aroma of the roasted sweet potatoes, they really think that the title of Earl is well-deserved!

"Brother Gu, are you saying that you are planning to move to the capital tomorrow?"

Wang Maolin asked while eating roasted sweet potatoes comfortably.

After receiving Gu Yulang's affirmative answer, Wang Maolin actually said:

"Brother Gu, don't forget to bring vermicelli to the capital!"

Gu Yulang looked at Wang Maolin speechlessly.

Just now, when he saw him asking him seriously whether he wanted to move back to Beijing, he thought that Wang Maolin had some important arrangements to make!

The result is to remind myself not to forget to bring vermicelli to Beijing!

When Wang Maolin came, he was in a grand procession, and when he left, he was in an even grander procession. The villagers of Gujia Village had already gathered in front of the Gu family's gate to watch the fun.

"Mr. Gu, the emperor doesn't have any food to eat either. Does he want to eat sweet potatoes too?"

A man in the village was a little confused and thought that the emperor also had no food to eat and had to transport sweet potatoes back home to eat.

"You are so stupid! The emperor has eaten everything that flies in the sky, swims in the water, and crawls on the ground every day!"

An older man spoke to him contemptuously, as if he had seen a lot of the world!

The villagers of Gujia Village couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Dechang, we are moving to the capital tomorrow. Let Shugen's family live in this yard and help me look after the sweet potatoes in the cellar. No one else can live here except Shugen's family."

Gu Xiucai specifically told this matter in front of the whole village.

He was afraid that if he let Gu Shugen move in later, his unreliable elder brother and his family would shamelessly follow suit and move in!

Although he is not a bad person, he doesn't want to be a goody-goody either.

The brotherhood among the three brothers had long since disappeared. It was only because Shugen did not look down on them on the first day they moved back to Gujia Village and truly treated them as family that he was willing to help him.

In fact, the sweet potatoes in his yard would be guarded by people sent by the emperor, so there was no need for Gu Shugen to watch over them.

When Gu Shugen heard Gu Xiucai's words in the crowd, his eyes immediately turned red. His fifth uncle was helping him escape from the hard life of being a laborer in the Gu family.

He was introverted and quiet, and was never as popular with his parents as his two older brothers.

He has worked so hard for the family over the years, but his wife and children can only get the minimum amount of food. He has long wanted to leave this family, but his mother has always put pressure on him with her filial piety.

Now he finally has the chance, and with the village chief around, his parents dare not say anything.
