Busy times always pass quickly. After a day, 200 acres of sweet potatoes and 100 acres of peanuts were finally planted. Now only corn and potatoes are left to be planted.

Because the county government needed someone to stay there and Wang Xinyao was pregnant, they went back after lunch.

Xia Zixuan glanced at the time and said, "It's already the evening hour, and it will be late to go back. Let's go to the county town first! I've asked Xingyu to order some food at Pinxian Pavilion, so we can eat when we get back."

Everyone else nodded in agreement. Su Baiyu said weakly, "Okay, let's go! I'm so tired!"

Xia Zixuan smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work today. Let's go! I'll treat you to dinner."

Mu Chenyi held her hand and walked forward. "This is my first time to experience farming. I only knew that farmers worked very hard before, but I didn't expect them to work so hard just to have enough food and clothes."

Xia Zixuan looked at the two people holding hands and said softly, "Yes! You rich people eat a lot of fish and meat every day, but you eat half and throw away the other half, while farmers have to pay a lot to have something to eat, and sometimes they may not even be full."

Su Baiyu walked up to them and said, "We have never wasted food. Except during festivals, my grandfather would not let us waste it. But I don't know about other families."

Xia Zixuan was a little surprised when she heard this, "It seems that your grandfather is a man with a big picture, thinking far and seeing even further."

Mu Chenyi continued, "My grandfather was the Grand Tutor. Many people were watching what he did, and he had to set an example for all officials. Besides, my grandfather had also suffered a lot when he was a child."

Xia Zixuan understood and said, "No wonder! But Old Master Su is also worthy of admiration."

As they talked, they got on the carriage and came to the county town. "Take me back to Mingxiang Pavilion first. It's not good to go to the restaurant with all this mud on my body."

Mu Chenyi nodded and ordered: "Ying San, go to Mingxiang Pavilion first."

"Yes, master." Ying San responded and drove to Mingxiang Pavilion.

At Mingxiang Pavilion, Leng Lan and the others were about to have dinner, and she didn't know that Xia Zixuan had arrived.

Ying San drove the carriage to Mingxiang Pavilion and Xia Zixuan got out of the carriage. "Ayi, do you want to go in and wash up?"

Mu Chenyi said in a gentle voice: "We are fine. It doesn't matter if you wash up when you get to the restaurant. Go and wash up quickly. We will wait for you here."

Su Baiyu thought to himself, who was the one with mysophobia before? Now, after meeting Zixuan, he no longer has any mysophobia.

Xia Zixuan nodded and said, "Okay, I'll be back soon."

After saying that, he took Jinghe and a few others who got off another carriage and walked into the shop. When they arrived at the shop, they saw a unfamiliar girl guarding the shop, and two other girls introducing products to customers.

When the little girl saw Xia Zixuan and the others coming in covered in mud, she didn't disdain to drive them away, but asked gently, "Girls, what do you need?"

Xia Zixuan looked at her attitude and nodded with satisfaction: "We need some water to wash up, okay?"

A trace of struggle flashed across the little girl's face when she heard this. She was not sure whether Manager Leng would be angry if she took the people to the backyard, but it seemed that these girls had encountered some difficulties.

She hesitated for a moment and thought to herself, forget it, if Manager Leng gets really angry, he will just punish her!

And the rule in their shop is that as long as someone is not a troublemaker, they will help if they really need help. After all, everyone encounters difficulties when they are out.

She stretched out her hand and made a gesture of invitation, "Girls, please follow me. I will take you to the backyard to freshen up."

Xia Zixuan and others also noticed the embarrassment on her face, but she still chose to help them. It seems that Leng Lan has a good eye for selecting people.

Several people followed the little girl to the backyard. Leng Lan saw the little girl coming to the backyard and thought something happened in front. "Xiao Qing, why are you here? Is there something wrong in front?"

The girl called Xiaoqing heard this and said, "Shopkeeper Leng, there is nothing going on. These girls came to our shop and said they needed water to wash up, so I brought them here."

Xiao Qing said as she moved aside to let Leng Lan see. Leng Lan saw that they were covered in mud. When Xia Zixuan and the others raised their heads, she asked in surprise, "Girls? What happened to you? Why…"

Xia Zixuan interrupted her with a smile, "We are going to the outskirts of the county to farm. Leng Lan, go get us some water so we can wash up."
