Li Huaitong came in a hurry and had no time to bring a scale.

Fortunately, it is not difficult to find a large beam scale. There is one in the village ancestral hall.

Hu Dexian called Hu Chunshan and asked him to go home and get the key to open the ancestral hall and bring over the large beam scale.

Ouyang Siyuan had already dug a bunch of sweet potatoes by himself and piled them in front of the greenhouse.

There are three greenhouses, and there are a lot of sweet potatoes piled at the door.

Li Shixi was like a hardworking little bee, picking up the sweet potatoes and putting them into the basket so that Leng Yiwufeng could carry them out.

Li Huaitong followed behind Ouyang Siyuan and said, "Your Highness, please take a rest. Let others do this job. You just watch."

"No, that won't work. I've been watching over these greenhouses, so I have to harvest some, too. Hahaha, you see, this less than an acre of land has a very high yield."

Li Huaitong looked around the low bamboo shed above his head.

It really is a shed!

There are still traces of light coming through in some places. It's not much warmer in here than outside. How did these...foods survive?

The grain lumps looked quite large, weighing perhaps one or two kilograms each, and he could not even hold a large lump with one hand.

If this were all food...

Li Huaitong almost frightened himself.

The output must be higher than that of wheat, right?

Hu Chunshan took the scale and also took some paper and carbon sticks for recording. The yamen runner who took the things praised him for his good eyesight.

The villagers squeezed forward little by little, craning their necks to look around.

Villager A: "Wow! It's piled up like a small mountain. How much is it..."

Villager B: "This is edible! Didn't you listen to what the village chief and the old patriarch said? This is food!"

Villager C: “I heard it, too.”

Villager A: "Can we plant some too? This Li family courtyard is a great place with good feng shui. A pack of wolves sent us a lot of meat, and now..."

"Who knows if it's a good place for Feng Shui? I only know that the person living here is a widow..."

"...Even the county magistrate was alarmed. How much benefit will Madam Li get this time..."

Osmanthus stood in the crowd and listened to everyone's discussions.

These are all perfectly normal. Anyway, they can't do anything to anyone in the Li family courtyard.

Guihua did not go into the greenhouse to help. There were only grown men there, so she decided not to join in the fun. Anyway, her Erniu brothers were all there.

After Li Huaitong entered the greenhouse, Guihua went to Li Changle again.

Li Changle handed the fish to her and said, "Sister Guihua, please help me keep an eye on her. Look at her new clothes. She just put them on!"

Yu'er pulled at the door of the greenhouse, "No, help my brother, help my uncle!"

Li Changle: "Stop it!" The little girl almost threw herself into the pile of sweet potatoes.

Guihua, who usually has a loud voice, felt embarrassed, so she gently took Yu'er to her side and coaxed him to go to Wang's house to play with Xiao Shitou. Leng Er followed closely with a stern face.

Li Changle found it funny but didn't stop Leng Er.

This was the main task assigned to him by Gu Jingyan.

Many women watched with envy as the two of them, one big and one small, walked toward the other side of the hill.

This family managed to please others without saying anything, which shows that they have some means.

Li Changle smiled at the villagers gathered at the entrance of the greenhouse, "It's cold outside, you can go home after a while, and come back to sit inside when you have time. I'm a bit busy today, so I won't entertain you for now."

She walked towards the crowd, and everyone consciously made way for her.

The thin woman with a straight back walked lightly out of their sight.

The people in the greenhouse were still using hoes to dig sweet potatoes, and the yamen runners were using beam scales to calculate the output.

With Muramasa and Ouyang Siyuan around, Li Changle returned to the courtyard.
