After being rejected, he emptied the mansion and went into exile

Pan Ye didn't expect Xiang Hongxuan to ask such a question.

He said, "I'm not as familiar with you as I am. You two were engaged before."

In the past, Xiang Hongxuan would beat anyone who made fun of his fiancée.

As a result, this time when Xiang Hongxuan heard the word "fiancée", he did not take action.

Xiang Hongxuan: "Then why did you two talk for so long?"

Pan Ye: "Why do you sound like you're interrogating a criminal? We didn't talk about anything, just chatting."

Xiang Hongxuan: "This woman is not simple, stay away from her."

Pan Ye: "Well, that does make some sense."

Pan Ye didn't think there was anything wrong with Xiang Hongxuan saying that to a woman, and he didn't think Xiang Hongxuan had an affair with Shen Jinyao.

Instead, he felt that Xiang Hongxuan must be investigating Shen Jinyao.

Pan Ye: "Did you discover something?"

Xiang Hongxuan: “No.”

After he finished speaking, he turned and left, leaving Pan Ye talking to himself there.

"Xiang Hongxuan must have discovered something. Could it be that Shen Jinyao has some big secret?"

Shen Jinyao, who was far away in Wuhe Village, couldn't help but sneeze twice.

Not knowing who was talking bad about her behind her back, she looked at the village chief opposite her embarrassedly.

The village chief didn't say anything, but looked at the villagers standing below.

Shen Jinyao asked the village chief to gather all the villagers together, and she wanted to talk to everyone about planting potatoes.

Before this, she had just told the village chief that she wanted to contract 100 acres of land.

Shen Jinyao still remembered that when she put the purse in front of the village chief Uncle Li, the expression on Uncle Li's face changed again and again.

In the end, he could only weigh the silver and said to Shen Jinyao, "Are you sure you want to contract so much?"

Shen Jinyao nodded.

She is very confident in the seeds in her space.

If we don’t plant now, the weather will get colder and colder, and we won’t be able to plant later.

Uncle Li: "Okay, then write a letter."

Shen Jinyao: "Uncle Li, don't worry about this for now. I have to talk to the villagers about planting potatoes first."

Uncle Li: "What's the matter?"

Shen Jinyao: "With so much land, someone must be planted. If anyone is willing to plant, they can buy my seeds. If you don't want to plant it yourself, you can come to my house to plant it."

"It's just like building a house, you pay the workers."

Uncle Li rubbed his eyebrows and wanted to refuse.

But Shen Jinyao said earnestly: "Uncle Li, Auntie, look, this is our first year of planting."

"Even if I teach you how to plant it, you might not be able to do it well. Why don't you learn from me for the first year? Whether you do well or not, I'll take responsibility."

"This way, by the beginning of next spring, with everyone having gained experience, our potato production in Wuhe Village will be able to increase significantly."

Aunt Zhou asked doubtfully, "Miss Shen, are you saying that potatoes can be used as food?"

Shen Jinyao nodded. "Yes, Aunt Zhou, it can be used as dry food, cooked, or made into vermicelli. Most importantly, it can be stored for a long time."

Aunt Zhou also became excited when Shen Jinyao said this. "If that's the case, then we should start planting too. When do we start?"

Before Shen Jinyao could say anything, Uncle Li raised his hand and interrupted the two of them.

Uncle Li: "Ahem, don't worry. I remember you said that one potato seed can grow many potatoes in the future?"

Shen Jinyao nodded, "There must be several potatoes under one seedling."

Uncle Li's face was filled with shock. There were so many?

He stammered, "So... so many?"

"Then we won't be able to finish eating all these potatoes, and we can't store them for half a year, right?"

Shen Jinyao nodded: "When the time comes, I will collect all the leftover potatoes from each household."

Aunt Zhou: "What are you going to do with it?"

Shen Jinyao: "Sell it."

Uncle Li: "Can it really be sold?"

Shen Jinyao: "Uncle Li, don't worry, I will pay everyone first. If they can't be sold, it will be my responsibility."

Uncle Li said softly, "Well, it's not that I'm worried. In that case..."

"Boss, go and beat the gong."

The eldest son of the village chief's family agreed and said, "I understand, Dad."

The sound of gongs and drums rang out, and all the villagers in the village gathered at the meeting place.

"Village Chief, what do you want to talk about today?"

"Why is the eldest daughter of the Shen family standing there too?"

"What young lady? The Shen family is no longer the Shen family of Shangjing City."

"That girl is prettier than the girls in our village."

"Stop talking now, Miss Shen must have something important to say here today."

"I don't know what to say. Is the Shen family going to build another house?"

"Shh... stop talking, the village chief has a long face."

……

Standing above are the village chief and three clan elders, and standing beside is Shen Jinyao.

Uncle Li looked at the mess downstairs, frowned, and coughed heavily.

The noise below gradually stopped.

Uncle Li stepped forward and said, "I called everyone here today because I have something important to discuss."

"What's the matter, Village Chief?"

"Is it a good thing or a bad thing?"

"How big of a deal must it be to mobilize such a large force?"

Uncle Li waved his hand, signaling everyone to lower their voices, and then continued, "What I want to talk about is that the eldest daughter of the Shen family wants to plant potatoes."

As soon as Uncle Li finished speaking, the villagers underground became excited.

"What? Planting potatoes?"

"Is it the thing I mentioned last time when I was kneeling in front of the village chief's door?"

“What exactly is a potato?”

"I heard it can be used as food."

"Why is she making such a fuss about planting potatoes?"

"I do not know……"

The people below looked at each other, all confused.

Uncle Li continued, "Potatoes are a kind of food. They can be used as food or vegetables, and they can be stored for a long time..."

"Ah? There's such delicious food?"

"If it can be used as food, then won't we be able to eat our fill during the New Year this year?"

"These potatoes are so good, why did Miss Shen tell us about it?"

"Yeah, what do you want to do by calling us here?"

"Could it be that……"

"Shall we buy her seeds?"

……

Uncle Li stopped the crowd again and said, "This is such good food. Miss Shen wants to take us to grow it together."

Shen Jinyao looked at Uncle Li, who nodded and said, "Okay, then let Miss Shen tell everyone about this matter."

Shen Jinyao simply saluted, walked to the front and said to everyone: "Everyone, I just contracted a hundred acres of land."

The villagers standing below all widened their eyes when they heard the hundred scenes.

They were all laughing at Shen Jinyao.

"Is this eldest daughter of the Shen family not very smart?"

“Who would contract so much land in Wuhe Village?”

"Oh my god, this girl is really a big shot. She doesn't know how to live like this."

"Yeah, black sheep."
