The old village chief is not yet ancient, but he looks much older than people of the same age, with a yellow face and thin muscles, and the dog hugs his body as if he will turn his back at any time.

Hua Qingyan and his entourage had already noticed the situation of the villagers, they were all about the same as the village chief, and they couldn't see the hope of living numbly, and the spirit of the whole person had already been exploited. Hua Qingyan's arrival only made their lives a little better temporarily, but it was enough for them to be happy for a while.

In order to treat guests, the old village chief actually planned to cook himself, and pulled his daughter-in-law, who hurried back, into the kitchen.

Lou Xueyan walked around the yard, looked at the three or two simple Tupei thatched huts, and sighed silently. She has been prosperous and wealthy all her life, and she has lived in a carved column embroidery workshop since she was a child, and she eats even more delicacies from the mountains and seas. Even when she arrived in this mountain village, she lived in a new villa built by Hua Qingyan, where had she ever seen such a dirty and simple yard!

The more this is the case, the more hatred Lou Xueyan has in her heart, if it weren't for the exploitation and bullying of the Han family, how could the people be so miserable!

And those officials! If it weren't for the protection of officials and officials, how could the entire Jinju Mansion become like this, it is full of flowers on the surface and corrupt on the inside!

"Auntie, this time Ah Yi will definitely be able to return Jinzhou Mansion to a clear mind." Hua Qingyan was almost dizzy by Lou Xueyan, took her hand and held her on the chair, "Sit and rest for a while, the old village chief has a treat, we can't put on a sad face." ”

Lou Xueyan didn't want to sit, but being blamed by Hua Qingyan felt that her behavior was really inappropriate. Sitting down obediently, I could think that my elder was reprimanded by a junior in front of so many people, and his face became a little strange: "You girl is not big or small!" See how I clean you up when I go back! ”

"Okay, okay, when I go back, my aunt can clean me up as much as she wants, and I will definitely not resist!" Hua Qingyan said sincerely, and clenched her small fist to beat Lou Xueyan's shoulder, which was full of flattery.

Where can Lou Xueyan really get angry with Hua Qingyan, and point at Hua Qingyan with her fingers, looking helpless.

The two of them made such a fuss, but the atmosphere in the courtyard was a lot better, although it was still a little uncomfortable in my heart, but my face was restrained, and I could still show some smiles more or less.

Hua Qingyan thought that she would have to wait for a while, so she wanted to go to the field for a walk, but Le Yao couldn't sit still, so she hurriedly followed behind Hua Qingyan.

The crops grown in the field are similar to those in the mountain villages, mainly wheat and rice, and there are also various kinds of beans. Hua Qingyan also saw corn in many fields. Because of the good wind and rain, the crops in the field are growing very well, but when I think that a large part of the grain harvested will be handed over to the Han family, and the people who have worked hard to grow this grain can only get a little bit in the end, and it is impossible to even eat a full stomach.

Hua Qingyan pursed her lips, only hoping that Yun Shumo's movements could be faster, so that these people could live a comfortable life as soon as possible.

"Qingyan, if you feel sad, just think of helping them."

Le Yao's heart was also very uncomfortable, she pursed her lips and looked at the rickety backs of the villagers who were weeding in the field, and sighed.

Hua Qingyan patted her on the shoulder, "How can I help?" It is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him to fish. ”

She did help these villagers by buying things today, but it was only a drop in the bucket, she was going to leave after all, and she couldn't buy vegetables for a lifetime.

Hua Qingyan looked at the lush crops in the field, and suddenly had an idea, the crops planted by the villagers were relatively monotonous, and half of the villagers were used to buy silver and pay taxes, and they ate very little. The beans grown in the wasteland are not enough to satisfy their hunger, so what if the villagers are allowed to grow potatoes and sweet potatoes?

Both of these things are very good for both of them to be sold or eaten by themselves, and they are much more cost-effective than growing beans.

However, beans can't be wasted, and there seems to be a way to collect a little tofu in the space, and selling tofu to make bean sprouts seems to be a way out.

After figuring it out, Hua Qingyan's face finally showed joy, she sent Le Yao back, and found a more secret way back to her carriage. There were potatoes and sweet potatoes in the space warehouse, and although she could make up some reasons to come up with them, it was a little difficult to get the villagers to plant them.

Hua Qingyan came out of the space, and there were two more potatoes and four sweet potatoes in her hands, because it was a temptation, she didn't get too much, and when the village chief accepted these two things, she could move on to the next step.

As soon as Hua Qingyan walked to the door, Le Yao found it, "Qingyan is back, I want to eat." Eh, where did you find potatoes and sweet potatoes, do you want to eat them at noon? Le Yao's eyes lit up instantly, she likes to eat soft and glutinous sweet potatoes!

Le Yao didn't wait for Hua Qingyan's answer, and snatched the sweet potato over, "I'll take it in and bake it first!" Come in, Qingyan! ”

Hua Qingyan shook her head helplessly, afraid that Le Yao would eat all the sweet potatoes by herself and hurriedly catch up.

But as soon as she entered the door, Hua Qingyan was stunned again, and a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes.

The courtyard is very lively, the people of the village chief's family have already returned, the dining table is placed in the courtyard, the big round table, the table is full, and I don't know where the village chief got so many dishes, but what surprised Hua Qingyan was not this table full of vegetables, but the people in the yard.

"Girl, I didn't expect to see you here."

Hua Qingyan came back to her senses and nodded towards Xiao Xian'er, "Why are you here?" ”

Xiao Xian'er smiled, and it happened that the village chief came out of the kitchen, "This is my grandfather's house." ”

Hua Qing nodded clearly and didn't ask anything else. Instead, the village chief looked at Xiao Xian'er and then at Hua Qingyan. "Good grandson, you know the girl."

Xiao Xian'er nodded, and shook her head again, "I've met once, this girl has bought the family's flowers." Xiao Xian'er said as she helped the village chief set the dishes and chopsticks. The village chief's family does not have a large population, and there is not so much spare money to buy extra dishes and chopsticks to put at home, these dishes and chopsticks are borrowed from the villagers, and there are all kinds of them, and they are placed together like a hodgepodge.

The village chief naturally thought that Hua Qingyan helped Xiao Xian'er's family, and he was more polite to Hua Qingyan.

"Girls come, sit, sit, all sit, they are all things that are often eaten in the countryside, and please don't dislike them." The village chief beckoned everyone to sit down, and only after Hua Qingyan and his party had sat down did he sit down.

On Hua Qingyan's right sat Lou Xueyan, and on the left sat the village chief, obviously treating Hua Qingyan as an important person. The village chief kept persuading Hua Qingyan to eat vegetables, if he wasn't afraid that the guests would dislike him, the village chief would have wanted to personally serve Hua Qingyan with vegetables.

To be honest, the village chief's dishes are not delicious, at most they can be eaten, but fortunately, the ingredients are fresh and can be eaten. Hua Qingyan didn't care, what she had to eat, and her face was so calm that she couldn't see anything else. However, Lou Xueyan and the others, who were nourished by the deliciousness, couldn't swallow it, so they pretended to eat some.

Lou Xueyan glanced at the little fairy opposite, leaned into Hua Qingyan's ear and whispered, "Girl, what's the matter with you and that girl?" ”

Lou Xueyan's eyes were so vicious, and she could see at a glance that the girl named Xiao Xian'er was not looking at Hua Qingyan. Hua Qingyan is not from this Xiyuan Town, naturally she doesn't know anyone here, Hua Qingyan knows this little fairy, if she says that there is no cat in it, Lou Xueyan will definitely not believe it.

Hua Qingyan is a gentle person, if there is no conflict, her eyes will definitely not be like that. The instant frowning, although it quickly disappeared, was still captured by Lou Xueyan.

Hua Qingyan pinched a piece of rabbit meat for Lou Xueyan with her eyes, "Eat first, and ask your son about the rest." ”

Lou Xueyan was stunned for a moment, and went back to ask her son? Isn't her son Yun Shumo? Could it be that this girl has something to do with Yun Shumo? For a while, Lou Xueyan's gaze at Xiao Xian'er was a little unkind.

Lou Xueyan didn't suspect that Yun Shumo betrayed Hua Qingyan, she thought that this girl must want to stick to Yun Shumo. For such people, Lou Xueyan has seen a lot, and those show girls in the palace are basically like this.

Lou Xueyan glanced at the little fairy who was sitting upright, and had to admit that this girl looked pretty good, and her temperament was relatively good. But even so, Lou Xueyan's impression of her has fallen to the bottom.

"Eat first." Hua Qingyan saw that she was distracted, and gave her another chopstick dish, "Wouldn't it be a sin for Ah Yi to let Ah Yi know that I took you out and didn't let you eat enough?" ”

"Just your poor mouth!" The unhappiness in Lou Xueyan's heart was instantly dispelled away by Hua Qingyan, "He will only blame me, where will he be willing to blame you." ”

Hua Qingyan shrugged her nose at Lou Xueyan, and just as she wanted to continue talking, she smelled a strong fragrance coming from the kitchen. Le Yao instantly jumped up from the stool and rushed directly into the kitchen, "Oops, the sweet potato is good!" ”

"Sweet potatoes?" The village chief was stunned, and when Le Yao took the sweet potato into the kitchen and buried it in the fire, the village chief saw it, and he thought that the girl who really came up was curious about the lumps that could be seen everywhere in the village, so he said something more, and when he smelled the fragrance, the village chief seemed to understand something.

Le Yao pulled the sweet potatoes out of the fire, found a basket and slipped them out, "Hurry up, come and taste the freshly baked sweet potatoes." Village Chief, this is a good thing, delicious and hungry! ”

Hungry!

These two words were the most impressive to the village chief, he looked at the pimple that Le Yao put in front of him in disbelief, and broke it apart in the same way as Le Yao, the rich fragrance instantly filled the entire courtyard, the village chief looked at the soft and glutinous inner core, swallowed and said.

Hua Qingyan also got half of it, "Eat it, it's not poisonous, I'll discuss one thing with the village chief after eating." ”

The village chief nodded subconsciously and took a bite under the expectant eyes of the family. The village chief's eyes widened instantly, he never thought that this ubiquitous lump of dirt could actually be eaten! And it's so delicious! The village chief is not stupid, and he instantly understood what Hua Qingyan wanted to talk to him! It's a big deal for the whole village!
