I will lead the whole village to occupy the land and become the king.
Chapter 143: Must Suspect Her
After Yu Hanyan finished speaking, she lowered her head, looking quiet and well-behaved.
But only she herself knew that she said this because of the news Ruhua brought back yesterday.
Everyone in the mansion said that Jiang Qinyu was a lucky star, but she didn't believe it. It was just that Jiang Qinyu was lucky and God was in a good mood, and the drought that had lasted for several years was about to end.
Uncle Chen also glanced at Yu Hanyan, then shook his head secretly and continued to tie the branches.
Xiaowu poured the water into the ditch. After the water stopped seeping down, Jiang Qinyu placed the prepared rack over the ditch and then placed the sweet potatoes on it one by one.
"What is this?" Yu Hanyan had never seen a sweet potato before, so she couldn't help but ask curiously.
Xiao Wu spoke quickly, "Miss Yu, this is sweet potato. Madam brought it from Yongshan County to Border Town and taught us how to grow it. I heard that the yield of this thing is very high. With it, we won't be hungry anymore!"
"Is it really that powerful?" Yu Hanyan didn't believe it in her heart, but her face showed excitement and joy. "That really helped the general a lot!"
If this thing doesn't produce high yields, Lu Yanzheng will definitely be disappointed, right? Then she can come forward to comfort him...
Jiang Qinyu felt a little regretful for letting Yu Hanyan stay. She looked up at her and replied with a smile, "Brother Zheng and I are husband and wife, so naturally I have to help him."
Yu Hanyan: “…”
After that, everyone buried their heads in their work. Yu Hanyan and her servant had nothing to do, so after standing there for a while, they finally said goodbye and went back.
"Uncle Chen, is Miss Yu being kept in our house now?" Jiang Qinyu had been holding this question in her mind all night, and now was the perfect time to ask it.
Uncle Chen shook his head. "Madam, Miss Yu received the pension from Deputy General Ling. She has some money, but she lives in our house. She pays for her daily expenses herself, and she also pays for her food. The master and servant both pay 500 coins a month."
Jiang Qinyu understood immediately. Isn't this the same as being a tenant who doesn't pay rent and only receives living expenses?
But if Yu Hanyan never worked, how long would she be able to spend the money she had? Could it be that she was treating the pursuit of Lu Yanzheng as her job?
The more Jiang Qinyu thought about it, the more she felt that this was possible. After all, if she could capture Lu Yanzheng, whether he was her wife or concubine, she would basically never be short of food and drink in this life.
If this is true, then Yu Hanyan is not as simple as she looks, right?
……
After working for a whole day, when Lu Yanzheng came back before dinner, Jiang Qinyu and the others had turned the entire open space in the backyard of the general's mansion into a sweet potato breeding ground.
"Is this possible?" Lu Yanzheng asked in surprise, looking at the ditch on the ground.
He also ordered people to make sinks and wooden boards today.
Jiang Qinyu raised her chin proudly. "Of course, don't be so rigid when doing things. The sink and wooden boards are a bit expensive, but this will make things much simpler. You have to be flexible when doing things."
Lu Yanzheng: "..." Very good, now he has become a person who doesn't know how to adapt.
When the two returned to the main courtyard, Shufan and Pan'er were already waiting for them for dinner.
After dinner, Jiang Qinyu took the two children to wash up, and then continued to tell them Journey to the West. After coaxing them to sleep, she returned to the master bedroom.
Lu Yanzheng was already lying on the chaise longue under the window with a book in his hand. When he saw her come in, he looked up and asked, "Is everything done?"
"Yeah, they're asleep." Jiang Qinyu pounded her arms and legs as she walked towards the bed.
After a day's work, she just wanted to go to bed.
But Lu Yanzheng spoke again, "I heard that Yu Hanyan came to see you today?"
"That doesn't count as looking, right? He just watched us work for a while." Jiang Qinyu thought for a while and said.
Lu Yanzheng nodded, "From now on, no matter what she says in front of you, you don't have to pay attention to it. Just treat her as an insignificant guest in your house."
That woman actually dared to speak nonsense in front of Qinqin today. Did she really think that he couldn't kick her out of the house?
"Huh?" Jiang Qinyu was a little confused. "Why?"
Lu Yanzheng looked at her and said, "She once came to see me in tattered clothes. Madam, are you going to push me to another woman?"
Jiang Qinyu: "..."
What do you mean by someone in thin clothes came to him? Was it simply Yu Hanyan who wanted to seduce him?
No wonder Lu Yanzheng’s attitude towards Yu Hanyan was so strange. He was cold but didn’t drive her away.
He seemed to have said last night that Lieutenant General Ling died saving him, so he must be his friend, right? A good buddy, that sort of thing.
Any decent man would be angry if his best friend's woman tried to seduce him after his brother's death. However, since his best friend had saved his life, it would be difficult for him to drive her away as long as she didn't do anything excessive.
So it turned out that she wasn't being suspicious. There was indeed something wrong with what Yu Hanyan said today.
But wait, what did Lu Yanzheng mean when he said, "Madam, are you going to push me to another woman?" Is he planning to spend his whole life with her?
Jiang Qinyu's mind was a little confused, and she was tired during the day, so she fell asleep in a daze.
I don't know how long I slept, but the long-lost system sound domineeringly woke Jiang Qinyu up.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the mission and successfully unlocking the second floor of the supermarket! Please keep up the good work and continue to unlock new areas!]
Jiang Qinyu was so sleepy that she waved one hand in the air unconsciously, murmured "I'll see tomorrow morning", and then went back to sleep.
But her words woke Lu Yanzheng up.
It can’t be said that he woke him up. It can only be said that Lu Yanzheng was a light sleeper. After hearing these words, he immediately opened his eyes and turned over lightly to the bed.
He savored the words "I'll see tomorrow morning" in his mind and couldn't help laughing. In the dark night, his eyes were also smiling. He said softly, "Are you still thinking about breeding?"
It was obvious he had misunderstood, but it was a beautiful misunderstanding.
When Jiang Qinyu got up the next day, she heard Uncle Chen say that Lu Yanzheng would be back early today.
"Is he okay in the army?" Jiang Qinyu was confused.
Uncle Chen smiled and said, "The general said that sweet potato breeding is a big deal and he wants to spend more time with his wife."
Jiang Qinyu was completely bewildered. What on earth was going on? What did sweet potato breeding have to do with Lu Yanzheng coming back to accompany her?
And who wants him to accompany her?
Jiang Qinyu couldn't understand Uncle Chen's train of thought, and she had no idea what Lu Yanzheng was thinking. After breakfast, she went to the backyard.
It's only been one night, so naturally there won't be any changes, but these sweet potatoes still need to be watered frequently to keep moisture on the surface.
Jiang Qinyu had just finished watering all the sweet potatoes on the ground when Uncle Chen came over with a happy look on his face.
"Madam, the three wells you visited the other day are also producing a lot of water!"
Jiang Qinyu was stunned. "Isn't this something everyone knows about?"
Uncle Chen nodded repeatedly, "Of course! The general has sent people to monitor those wells. If the water volume increases, not only will the general know, but the people will also spread the news..."
The more Jiang Qinyu listened, the more she wanted to cover her face. It was over. Lu Yanzheng was definitely going to suspect her now...
