"what?"

I just told my sister that I wanted to buy something for her, but she said she wanted to buy seeds. So I just bought seeds, but why are you suddenly asking her to stock up more food?

Bai Jinyan almost couldn't follow her sister's train of thought.

"Sister, if you trust me, go and stock up."

"I believe it! I'll stock up now!"

Bai Jinyan nodded without thinking.

For some reason, she just trusted what her sister said.

"Well, the sooner the better. I'm afraid that the price of food will get higher and higher as time goes by, and by then I might not be able to buy it even if I have silver."

Bai Jintong was not exaggerating.

Their country is facing a food crisis now. Food is becoming less and less, and food prices are rising, even to alarmingly high levels. That is inevitable.

"Ok.

So did you stock up?

I just happen to know a boss who has a lot of grain. Most of my seeds were bought from him. Just tell me what seeds you want. If I don’t have them, I will go to him.

Look what I have here, if you want it just take it.”

Bai Jinyan asked the waiter to bring one of each seed in the store for her sister to choose from.

Bai Jintong didn't bother to be polite with her elder sister and picked out two kinds of seeds that she had never seen before.

"Sister, please help me find some seeds with high grain yield."

As soon as Bai Jintong finished speaking, she felt that what she had said was equivalent to saying nothing.

Without waiting for the eldest sister to respond, she added, "Get some more rare seeds, no matter what kind."

"OK!

When there is something I can find, I will send it to you."

Bai Jinyan didn't ask her sister what she wanted those things for, she just listened and did what her sister said.

"You don't have to come and deliver it. Just send a servant to tell me, and I'll come and get it myself when the time comes."

After talking about business, the two sisters started chatting.

Bai Jinyan suddenly realized that the little girl who always liked to follow her has now grown into a big girl.

Especially when my younger sister had her coming-of-age ceremony today, both she and my mother had tears in their eyes.

"Sister, now that you have reached the age of marriage, are you ready to start looking for a boyfriend?

Let me tell you, the first thing to look at is the other person’s character, followed by their family situation, and finally their appearance.

Don't learn from me, your elder sister. I was deceived by that man's appearance. I was blind because of my own mistakes.

But after I got married, everything changed.”

Although Bai Jintong knew all that, she still listened obediently to her elder sister's words and deeds.

Seeing that it was getting late, Bai Jinyan was worried about her sister going home alone, so she wanted to send her off.

"Big sister, you really don't need to send me off. Mom must be in Tao Ranxiang, or else she must be in Yixian Pavilion. I'll go find mom. It's safe to be with mom.

You should go home soon, too."

Bai Jintong thought that her elder sister had to go back and forth to the shop during this period of time, and sometimes she might be busy until very late before returning home, because this is a necessary experience for a "working man".

Not necessarily every day, but there will always be one or two times when I come home late because of something.

The eldest sister went home alone, and even though she had a maid and a coachman, it was still very unsafe on the road.

So I wanted to give her something that could save her life, but not something too outrageous.

Looking at the remaining martial arts proficiency, it is not suitable for the eldest sister to eat.

She has been married into the Fu family for so long, and everyone in the Fu family knows what kind of person she is. If she suddenly becomes a person with great martial arts skills, it will definitely arouse suspicion.

While talking to my elder sister, I was picking around in the system mall to see if there was anything I could do to help her.

"understood."

Bai Jinyan felt much more at ease when she saw that her sister insisted on going home by herself and knew that her mother was on the street.

Just as she was about to get up, she saw her sister pick up the kettle and refill their two cups.

"Sister, this tea is delicious. Let's have another cup."

Bai Jinyan was just about to say that she wasn't thirsty and didn't want to drink, but her sister had already poured it for her, so she picked it up and drank it anyway. The cup was small and there wasn't much liquid in it, so two or three sips was enough.

It's rare that her sister likes something, so she decided to give her some of this tea tomorrow.

"Let's go!"

Bai Jintong was very satisfied when she saw her elder sister drinking the tea to which she had added something.

Only after watching the Fu family’s carriage go away did she go straight back home.

I didn’t go to Taoranxiang and Yixiange at all because my mother was at home.

"You guys just came back now, is there anything so beautiful on that farm?"

Hong Tianqiao saw that his daughter had just returned and must be hungry, so he hurriedly brought her some delicious food to feed her.

Bai Jintong accepts everything that her mother feeds her.

She was really hungry. She hadn't eaten much at noon, and had been running around for half a day, so she had digested all the food long ago.

"After not looking at the farm for long, Prince Qi returned to the palace to report to the emperor.

I guess I'll have to go to the village again in a couple of days.

Maybe when the harvest comes, they will go to check the yield in person.”

Bai Jintong said this and opened his mouth to eat the fried lotus root balls that his mother fed him.

"Mom, where did you buy this lotus root? It's so fresh and delicious~"

"It tastes good, right? Mom bought a lot, several hundred kilograms. When you're done, collect them and store them."

Hong Tianqiao smiled when she saw that her daughter liked to eat fried lotus root balls.

Now, she will buy any food she sees, even if it is only a few dozen kilograms. Little by little, it adds up to a lot.

"Okay, thank you, mother. Tomorrow we will go to the two ponds on the farm and plant some so that we can have food to eat later."

"Ok!"

Hong Tianqiao thought the same when he bought it.

The mother and daughter talked about Bai Jinyan while chatting.

"Oh, mother, I was afraid that my eldest sister would go back and forth between the shop and home every day, and would inevitably come back late sometimes, so I bought her a powerful pill.

If my eldest sister suddenly finds that she has become stronger and asks you about it, just say that there was such a person in her ancestry and she has regressed to her roots. "

"Well, fortunately the child can now think clearly and stand on his own."

Hong Tianqiao was very angry when she heard that Fu Fengyuan despised Bai Jinyan for going out to do business and wanted to suppress her with words.

When I heard what Bai Jinyan said, I felt relieved.

"Gah—there's a letter from the south!"

Xuanrui flew over with the little pigeon.

Bai Jintong took a small paper roll from the little pigeon's claws.

It’s a letter from Hong Tianyu.

The content of the letter said that he had received a tip-off from Hong Tianqiao and others, and that they had bought a lot of fruits over there, and asked the Ming Family Escort Agency to bring them over for resale. The money they earned was split in half and given directly to their daughter Hong Wenchu ​​as a dowry.

The main thing I talked about was how many kilograms etc., to prevent myself from being ripped off by the escort agency tomorrow.

Although the people in the escort agency will be very nice tomorrow, we still have to be on guard against them.

"I didn't expect my uncle to have as much business sense as my mother."

Bai Jintong truly admires her uncle.

"Look, at the end of the letter, it says there might be chaos over there."

Hong Tianqiao was a little worried about the safety of his stepbrother and sister-in-law.

"Don't worry, mom. I think my uncle is very smart and will definitely avoid any danger."

"Hopefully."

Hong Tianyu, who was being talked about by them, was looking at the mountain of red lychees hanging on the branches. He felt it was a pity that he could not pick them all in time and no one would eat them. It was such a waste.
