Fang Xiuqin watched everyone walking towards her and became more and more panicked. She simply picked up her feet and ran home.

She couldn't go out at this time and couldn't break up with the Lin family, otherwise how could she marry Lin Jingyou in the future. Lin Jingyou was the most handsome man in the whole Daqing Village and the only scholar in Daqing Village. Only Lin Jingyou was worthy of her.

"Oh, where are you going? Your own mother was beaten, and you hid and watched the show. Could it be that it's really like what my sister-in-law said, that your mother can't stand you and thinks you're a vixen, so your relationship with her is so bad that you wish she would be beaten to death."

Shen Wanning quickly walked to Fang Xiuqin's side, grabbed her arm, and pulled her back.

"You're talking nonsense, I didn't see it, I was just passing by here! Where's my mother? Where is my mother?" After being caught, Fang Xiuqin had to pretend that she just realized it.

The other villagers stood a little further away from her.

"I clearly saw her standing behind the tree, how could I not see Widow Wang!"

"Oh, Sister Xu, she's obviously pretending to be blind! Look at her still standing there. Maybe what the old Lin family said was right. Widow Wang can't stand this vixen daughter, so she's at odds with her."

"That makes sense. Oh, look at her neck. Look, that red spot looks like..." A woman pointed at Fang Xiuqin's neck and couldn't finish the rest of the sentence.

"This... No wonder Widow Wang talks about vixen every day, it turns out there is one in her family, haha."

The villagers pointed at Fang Xiuqin and started talking. She knew what others were talking about, but she didn't dare to refute. She covered the red mark on her neck, glared at Widow Wang, and quickly ran away.

It was a bit strange, even Shen Wanning didn't react. Why did she run away, covering the red marks on her neck? Shouldn't she have explained it now? Why did she leave in anger? And why did she even glare at Widow Wang before leaving?

Shen Wanning was filled with confusion. Fang Xiuqin had already run far away, but the villagers were still pointing and talking about them. Her running away only confirmed what Xu had just said.

"Mom, forget it. If she beats him to death, then she would be right. We won't bother with such people. I feel sorry for you for hurting your hands." Shen Wanning saw that Aunt Zhang had almost finished beating her, so she gently pulled Aunt Zhang away.

Before leaving, Aunt Zhang spat on Widow Wang a few more times and said, "Get lost! You two, mother and daughter, please don't come around me. I feel like you're dirtying my land just by passing by my door."

"Mom is right. Why don't we get two dogs? I heard that dogs can see dirty things. This way, these dirty things won't dare to come near our house in the future." Shen Wanning said as she supported Aunt Zhang and walked towards the sweet potato field.

The villagers followed them and someone answered, "You want puppies, right? It's just right. My dog ​​gave birth to seven puppies last month. If you want one, come to my house and pick any."

The other villagers were chatting about other topics, as if they had forgotten the unpleasantness that Widow Wang had just brought them.

Walking into the sweet potato field, Shen Wanning looked out at the green patch. The vines had grown considerably longer than when they were planted. She had already seen a video of vine cuttings yesterday, sent to her privately by a netizen.

She walked into the field and demonstrated to the villagers which seedlings to pick. After she finished, the villagers spontaneously walked into the field and started picking the seedlings one by one.

However, they didn't dare to pick too many, firstly because they were afraid of killing the sweet potato seedlings, and secondly because they didn't trust the sweet potato yield. A very small number of people even didn't believe that sweet potatoes were edible, and just followed the crowd to take a look.

Shen Wanning and her family guided them in picking the sweet potato seedlings in the field. It was not until the sun set that they looked at the sweet potato seedlings in the basket with satisfaction.

"Wan Ning! We have pinched the sweet potato seedlings, but how should we plant them? We don't think we have tried cuttings before. Can these sweet potato seedlings really survive?" Mrs. Xu was holding a small basket in her hand and looked at Shen Wan Ning worriedly.

Shen Wanning casually pinched off a section of sweet potato vine, dug a trench on the side with a small hoe, cut the sweet potato vine into small sections, and then placed it horizontally in the trench. Finally, she covered it with soil and compacted it a little.

"The last step is watering, but not too much. When the roots first start to grow, make sure the soil is moist, but not too much," Shen Wanning emphasized.

The villagers nodded. "Thank you, Wan Ning. We understand. Let's go back and try it now. We need to plant the sweet potato seedlings quickly before it gets dark."

After saying that, the other villagers thanked Shen Wanning one by one and left.

When she got home, Shen Wanning realized her stomach was growling with hunger. She glanced at the time and saw it was already past six in the afternoon. No wonder she was so hungry.

While eating, she told her family about how she found milk today and signed a contract with Manager Yang to buy a dairy cow.

"Wan Ning, what kind of milk tea is this? We haven't made it yet. We don't know if it tastes good or not, let alone if we can sell it. If we rashly buy five cows, what will we do with the cows if the milk tea can't be sold?" Although Aunt Zhang trusts Shen Wan Ning, she is still a little worried when facing such a big thing.

"Don't worry, Mom. I believe this milk tea will definitely sell. But now that things at home are basically settled, I was thinking about going to town tomorrow to buy a carriage! That way, we can avoid people talking nonsense."

Shen Wanning had wanted to buy a carriage for a long time. Coincidentally, with Widow Wang making such a fuss today, she believed that for the sake of her own reputation, Aunt Zhang would definitely agree.

"Okay, tomorrow I will let the eldest and second sons go with you to the town to buy a carriage, and let them learn how to drive a carriage. If you need anything in the future, let them drive the carriage to take you there." Aunt Zhang made the final decision.

Lin He raised his head from the bowl and said, "Grandma, I want to learn how to drive a carriage, too. It must be very impressive!"

Lin Jiang, who was usually quiet, followed up with, "I want to learn too."

"Okay, okay, you two boys still have to go to school! What are you learning? Wait until your father and second uncle have learned it, and then let them come back to teach you. There will be plenty of time in the future anyway." Aunt Zhang said with a smile.

Shen Wanning noticed Lin Jiang as soon as he spoke. She knew that Lin Jiang liked carpentry. She had previously thought about giving him a simplified version of "The Exploitation of the Works of Nature," which only covered the carpentry section. She just didn't know how Lin Jiang was doing with his studies.

"Xiao Jiang, you have been in school for more than a month. I wonder how your studies have been going recently? How many words do you know?" Shen Wanning looked at Lin Jiang and asked.

Lin Jiang's face turned red immediately. To be honest, although he went to study, he was still more concerned about carpentry and did not study well.
