The system favors me so much, I get eight meals a day while escaping from famine

Old Mrs. Jiang asked casually, "Xiaowu, where did you go for a stroll?"

Jiang Qingyi answered without even looking up, "I went to check where our stall is, and business is still the same as before."

"Your grandfather and your second uncle haven't come back yet. I don't know what they are doing."

"Maybe I forgot the time because I was so busy watching the fun. I should be back by dinner time. Grandma, what shall we have for dinner?"

"Eggplant, cucumber, and fried meat."

Jiang Qingyi's mouth drooped when she heard this. She had been eating the same thing every day recently and was tired of it. She thought about it and took out a bunch of big and juicy green peppers and seven or eight eggs from the space. "Milk, add a vegetable, and stir-fry these two together."

Old Mrs. Jiang just took a glance and nodded.

After a while, it was not known whether it was Ayuan or Wanwan from the Zhao family who started crying again. Old Mrs. Jiang put down the knife in her hand and went over anxiously.

Jiang Qingyi couldn't bear to see Old Lady Jiang busying around, so she helped prepare the rest of the dishes.

Soon, the people who went out for a walk and set up stalls came back.

Old Mrs. Jiang also changed the wet diapers of the two babies and asked Jiang Dahai to wash them.

Seeing that everyone had returned, Jiang Qingyi started cooking. After a while, four dishes and a soup were served on the table.

After lunch, Jiang Dahai finally came to find Jiang Qingyi, "Yiyi."

Jiang Qingyi stood at the door of the room, "Dad."

"Why... did you say those words to your mother?" Although Jiang Dahai hesitated, he still asked.

Jiang Qingyi remained calm, "Just say what you think."

Jiang Dahai felt choked, and then he remembered that his wife was so angry that she stopped breastfeeding, and he was furious that the two children had no food. But he couldn't say anything harsh to Jiang Qingyi. He knew clearly that the family's current situation was all because of the child in front of him.

"Yiyi, your mother is just..."

Jiang Qingyi didn't want to hear Jiang Dahai trying to make amends for Zhao, so she interrupted him, "I know what my mother is like. Don't worry, Dad. I have nothing against her. After all, I am still your daughter. I won't let you get cold or hungry while I am here. As for the rest..."

Jiang Dahai understood the meaning of her unfinished words. He couldn't help but take a step back, "Yi Yi..."

Jiang Qingyi's expression showed no emotion at all, and she seemed to want to draw a clear line between herself and him.

Jiang Dahai wanted to say something when crying sounds came from Zhao's room again.

"Dad, you better go and take a look."

Jiang Dahai left anxiously.

What he didn't know was that Jiang Qingyi had already separated him and Zhao in her heart.

Jiang Qingyi knew that Jiang Dahai was in trouble, so she helped him make a choice. She, the daughter who arrived halfway, would not always be with Jiang Dahai, and he should belong to the Zhao family.

She said hello to Old Mrs. Jiang and went out.

Even without a carriage, Jiang Qingyi could reach the outside of the manor quickly.

When Jiang Qingyi went in, Manager Zhou was organizing everyone to weigh the grain.

Only wheat, millet and corn were grown on the farm. Jiang Qingyi didn't care about the vegetables that the tenants grew for themselves.

Manager Zhou was the first to notice Jiang Qingyi. He quickly put down what he was doing and came over to greet Jiang Qingyi. "Miss Jiang, why are you here at this time? I was thinking of going to your house to see you tomorrow to sort out the things here."

Jiang Qingyi waved her hand, "You go ahead and do your work. I just thought that the harvest should have been completed, so I came to take a look."

Manager Zhou was indeed busy, so he said, "Miss Jiang, you can just look around. I'll go finish the work over there."

Jiang Qingyi was strolling around on her own. She thought something had happened here, but it turned out she was overthinking.

By the time Manager Zhou had stored all the grain handed over by the tenants into the warehouse, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.

He hurried to find Jiang Qingyi, "Miss Jiang, the grain that the tenants handed in this year has been collected. What do you think we should do with it?"

"how many?"

"The tenants on our farm only planted wheat, millet and corn. We had 3,670 kilograms of wheat, 1,350 kilograms of millet and 1,700 kilograms of corn."

Jiang Qingyi frowned slightly, "It seems that the production here is not high!"

Manager Zhou suddenly became nervous, "Miss Jiang, you don't know that the production on our farm is considered high. Several nearby farms have even less than ours!"

"Don't be nervous, I'm just talking casually."

Manager Zhou was about to get upset. You just said something casually, and it felt like you were going to cause trouble for me. "I wonder if Miss Jiang has any other instructions."

"Go and tell the tenants that I want to leave a few acres of land to grow other things next year, and I also want to build a yard on that piece of land."

"Miss Jiang, are you planning to bring your family to live here at the manor?"

"Well, I plan to stay here for a while. There's nothing fun to do in the city."

"Miss Jiang, there's no need to bother. The house I'm living in now belongs to the owner. If you want to come, I'll vacate it."

Jiang Qingyi turned her head in surprise, "Then where will your family live after you vacate the house?"

Manager Zhou smiled and said, "My family originally lived in a nearby village, and my family came here with me. The previous owner of the house thought that it would fall into disrepair if no one lived in it, so he asked me to come here. But don't worry, Miss Jiang, we have taken good care of the house, and it is not damaged at all. It will be convenient for our family to move out."

Jiang Qingyi thought that she would not live here forever, so she should not disrupt other people's lives. "No, it's troublesome to move here and there. When the tenant pays the rent, you can find a craftsman to help me arrange it. If it's not enough, come to me and build three rooms and a kitchen. You also need a toilet and a bathing place, and fence the yard outside."

Manager Zhou had already said everything that needed to be said. As for how Jiang Qingyi would choose, he had no right to interfere. He just agreed to everything. "This year's land rent is about ten taels of silver. According to Miss Jiang's request, you can build a blue brick and tile house."

"Okay, we can prepare during this time."

"Miss Jiang..."

"Just tell me if you have anything to say."

"I have a cousin who can build houses. I wonder if I can let him do this."

"Okay, just build a solid house. If your cousin comes, the materials and wages will be 13 taels in total. I won't charge him any extra wages for the people he brings. After the construction starts, find an aunt from a tenant farmer's family to steam some buns for lunch every day. Just one meal."

"Yes, Miss Jiang, with your words, my cousin will definitely build the house you want as soon as possible."

Jiang Qingyi also told Manager Zhou where the house would be built and which land would be reserved for next year, and Manager Zhou wrote them down one by one.

It was already late after she finished giving these instructions, so Jiang Qingyi took a little of each kind of grain that had just been harvested and left.

After returning, Jiang Qingyi showed the grain she brought back to Old Lady Jiang, "Grandma, the grain on the farm has been harvested, and the grain handed in by the tenants has been placed in the granary on the farm. We don't have to go to the grain store to buy food later."
