Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space

Chapter 146 Reporting to the Court

"Wow"!

Hearing this, the villagers were all shocked!

The court, the Xiao family’s affairs have been reported to the court, what a great honor this is!

But, in this case, will the Xiao family still buy their potatoes?

Everyone looked at each other, not knowing how to start.

Zhao Lizheng was also surprised, as he didn't know about this.

After hearing this, Manager Ren's head drooped.

Look, look, the crime he was charged with: opposing the imperial court!

How could he, a common man, bear the burden?

It's all over now, he muttered absentmindedly.

Zhao Cuihua also became scared. She was the culprit. What should she do?

Doesn't it mean that she still can't escape from prison? Zhao Cuihua has no desire to live anymore.

The Xiao family members watched as everyone was talking. Xiao Wan looked at Old Man Xiao. Old Man Xiao nodded, interrupted everyone, and started speaking.

"Everyone, learn how to grow potatoes, so that more people won't go hungry or even starve to death." When he said this, everyone was shocked.

Yes, for the benefit of the whole village, they kept the planting method secret and only fed themselves, but what about the other hungry people?

"But," Father Xiao continued, "our Xiao family will still harvest potatoes from our village. As for potatoes from other villages, we won't need many for now, so we'll definitely harvest those from our village first. Don't worry about that."

As soon as these words were spoken, the villagers felt relieved. Since the Xiao family workshop only accepted potatoes from their own village, it would not be a problem at all.

Everyone became happy again, which made Xiao Wan laugh a lot.

As for Zhao Cuihua, Zhao Wenqing did not deal with her any more for the sake of the Xiao family. As for the three hundred taels, Zhao Wenqing decided to award them to the Xiao family as compensation, and then left with Manager Ren.

Before leaving, he smiled and said to Xiao Wan, "Miss Xiao, the court has greatly commended you. The planting method you devised will solve the hunger problem for many people, and the court is very pleased. So, just wait for the court's commendation."

After saying that, he left, leaving Xiao Wan standing there in a daze.

However, Old Man Xiao, Mrs. Liu and Headman Zhao were very happy.

Xiao Wan had long wanted to report this potato planting method to the court. She was not a selfish person and knew that many people were still starving.

But I didn’t know who to report to before, and I didn’t know whether the people in the government were reliable, so I was always hesitant.

It was not until Zhao Wenqing appeared that after more interactions, he realized that he was an upright and good official. He was also on good terms with Fu Mingxuan and Zhao Mingyuan, so he naturally offered the prescription to them, hoping that it could solve the problem of food and clothing for most people.

In order to make Zhao Wenqing believe it, he specially planted a pot of potatoes and brought it to him. He also made many dishes with potatoes, which made Zhao Wenqing exclaim in delight.

This potato is very filling and is not picky about the soil. It is easy to grow and thrives. As long as it is promoted, it will definitely save many people from hunger.

This is a good thing that benefits the country and the people. He looked at Xiao Wan with burning eyes.

No wonder those two guys wrote to him again and again asking him to protect Xiao Wan. It’s hard not to love this girl.

He promised Xiao Wan that he would report to the court, including her name, and try to get some benefits for her.

Xiao Wan shook her head. What she wanted was not benefits, but she hoped that fewer people would go hungry and everyone could have enough food and clothing.

Zhao Wenqing's eyes gradually became serious. He looked directly into Xiao Wan's clear eyes and began to look her in the eye for the first time.

This girl doesn't look like a peasant girl. She has a good temperament and beautiful looks, but she has indeed lived in the village since she was a child. We can only say that a golden phoenix has emerged from a peasant family.

What is rare is that although I am doing business, I don’t focus on profit, which is very difficult.

If Xiao Wan knew that Zhao Wenqing was thinking this way about her, she would definitely laugh out loud.

She values ​​profit and loves profit, but there are some things and principles that are more important than profit.

She hadn't expected that the recipe she offered this time would be used here. She laughed, thinking that this was a lucky coincidence.

But if the shopkeeper Ren had not had evil intentions, this would not have happened.

Fortunately, she and Zhang Liang had set up a trap in advance, so they fell into the trap one by one and jumped in.

In this way, it can also deter many villains who covet her family!

But she really felt sorry for Xiao Tiequan. How would he face people in the future after being cuckolded so many times?

It's better to move away from the tribe, at least I won't be embarrassed by the villagers anymore. It's a pity for Ang'er.

She has seen him before. He is very well-behaved and is said to be a good student. He is a classmate of Heping'er.

With a mother like this, life will probably be difficult in the future, and it will probably be difficult to pass the imperial examination.

On Xiao Tiequan's side, Zhao Cuihua felt a little awkward when she saw the Xiao family pleading with the county magistrate to let her go, and she didn't say thank you.

The Xiao family didn't care. After all, they were just doing it for Xiao Tiequan's sake. He had suffered enough.

He should have had a great life, living a peaceful life in the village, but now it's all ruined by Zhao Cuihua.

Xiao Tiequan thanked the village head and the Xiao family again, and asked the village head to show him the way so that he could leave the village.

Zhao Lizheng felt sorry for him and advised him to reconsider, not only for himself but also for Anger's sake.

Xiao Tiequan shook his head and smiled bitterly: "No need, Uncle Lizheng, An Ge'er can't live here anymore, I'd better go far away."

The head of the village sighed helplessly and issued him a pass. Xiao Tiequan entrusted the house to the head of the village. The next day, he packed up his things and left Dahuaishu Village with Zhao Cuihua and his son.
