Reborn Ugly Girl Farming to Support the Family

In an instant, the prefect's nephew and the runners were surrounded by soldiers holding spears who had received orders.

Several officers were so frightened that they quickly dropped their knives and raised their hands in surrender.

They cursed their bad luck in their hearts. They thought it was a lucrative job, but they didn't expect to get themselves involved.

When the prefect's nephew heard the other party talking about his uncle with disdain in their tone, he immediately felt that the identities of these people might not be ordinary.

But it was too late to react now, Captain Qi had already brought his men to control them all.

Scholar Fang said to Lieutenant Qi: "Send someone to inform Liang Tong and ask him to come over to see me! I want to see how Junyang Prefecture can cover up everything with him!"

Captain Qi responded decisively and immediately sent someone to pass on the message.

The people from the Zheng and Yang families looked at the people who were tied up and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The person who was so arrogant just now is now thrown to the ground like a dead dog. It's really satisfying to watch.

Then they looked at Mr. Fang in surprise. They saw that those people in official uniforms were very respectful to him and wondered who he was.

Fang Xiucai looked at Yang Shuhuai and Zheng Xiaoman with a smile: "Oh, I didn't know today was your big day. Look, I didn't even bring a gift."

Zheng Xiaoman smiled and said, "Master, you have helped us a lot today. This is better than any gift.

Besides, we both had no other choice but to think of getting married."

"Hahaha, you two." Mr. Fang laughed out loud.

"But no matter what, I will stay here today and have a good drink at the wedding."

Zheng Dashan and the others quickly responded, "Yes, yes. We'll prepare it right away."

We were in a hurry to get married, and my family had no plans to hold a wedding banquet.

Now that this matter has been resolved, the banquet can be held.

Captain Qi took his men to take the tied people away first. It was unlucky for them to stay here on someone else's wedding day.

Zhou Chunfeng took the servants with her and hurried to prepare the banquet.

Zheng Xiaoman was about to help, but Fang Xiucai stopped him.

"Come here girl, I have something to tell you, Shu Huai come with me too."

Zheng Xiaoman and Yang Shuhuai looked at each other and followed Fang Xiucai into the guest room.

After Fang Xiucai asked everyone to sit down, he introduced the two people, "This is Mr. Meng, the Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Works, and Mr. Qian, the Junior Minister of the Ministry of Agriculture, who came from the capital.

They came here on orders to take a look at the sweet potatoes and the waterwheel."

Yang Shuhuai and Zheng Xiaoman quickly stood up and greeted the two adults.

Seeing Master Fang speaking to the two men in an intimate tone, the two gentlemen no longer dared to put on airs and stood up to return the greeting.

Fang Xiucai then continued, "Xiao Man, tell them about what you made."

Zheng Xiaoman nodded and began to introduce the yield and practicality of sweet potatoes to the two people.

Mr. Qian had not seen it with his own eyes, so he still did not believe that there was a crop that could produce 2,000 kilograms per mu.

Zheng Xiaoman said, "It's time to harvest sweet potatoes now. How about you go and take a look tomorrow, Mr. Qian?"

Lord Qian smiled and nodded, "Okay, I have never heard of crops with such high yields.

This time, the young master presented this good variety, and everyone was very curious about the sweet potatoes.

I will go to the fields with you tomorrow to see how the sweet potatoes can produce 2,000 kilograms per mu."

Of course Zheng Xiaoman had no problem with that, and let them go and see for themselves, saving her the trouble of explaining it to them again.

Lord Meng smiled and said, "When we came here, I had already seen the waterwheel by the river. I also looked at the drawings of the waterwheel, but I still have some details I want to ask."

Zheng Xiaoman said, "Then I will call the two carpenters who made the waterwheel tomorrow. If you have any questions, just ask them."

Lord Meng smiled and nodded in agreement.

After they finished talking, Fang Xiucai spoke up, "I was ordered to bring people here to check. Once it is confirmed that the sweet potatoes are indeed a good variety with a yield of over a thousand kilograms per mu, someone will come to discuss the specific details of purchasing sweet potatoes with you.

As for the reward for contributing the waterwheel blueprint, it will be given to you at that time."

Zheng Xiaoman looked at Yang Shuhuai. It was he who proposed this matter in the first place, and he was also the one who went to find this person.

Unexpectedly, the person he was looking for was Mr. Fang. How did he know that Mr. Fang was not an ordinary person?

Yang Shuhuai felt her gaze, turned his head and smiled at her.

Zheng Xiaoman turned around and thanked Fang Xiucai earnestly, "Master, I really want to thank you for this time."

Mr. Fang smiled and waved his hands, "You don't have to be polite to me, girl. Your brother is also my student. When something happens in a student's family, it's normal for a teacher to step forward.

Besides, I have eaten a lot of meals cooked by you during my years in the village, hahaha."

Zheng Xiaoman also laughed. She looked at Fang Xiucai with bright eyes.

"Well, Master, what kind of high-ranking official are you? From what I heard from you, your position should be much higher than that of a prefect, right?"

Scholar Fang smiled but said nothing. Lord Meng at the side said with a smile, "Lord Fang is a first-rank tutor to the crown prince. He is definitely not comparable to the prefect of that continent."

Zheng Xiaoman's eyes widened. "Master, you, you are actually the prince's tutor. Then why are you here?"

Mr. Fang stroked his beard and said, "Haha, I think your place is beautiful with clear water and mountains, outstanding people and auspicious places. I came here to cultivate my character."

Zheng Xiaoman curled his lips, what a lot of nonsense he was talking about.

When Mr. Fang saw her expression, he laughed out loud.

The villagers outside also came to the Yang family one after another. Just now, they saw Mr. Fang and a group of soldiers coming here in the village.

It’s just that those officers and soldiers were so majestic and imposing that they didn’t dare to come over for a while.

At this time, someone came to their house and invited them to a wedding banquet. When the villagers asked around, they found out that the scholar in their school was actually a high-ranking official.

Almost all the villagers ran to Yang's house to join in the fun, and there was even a little child who leaned against the window and peeked inside, wanting to see what the high-ranking official who had come to the village looked like.

The women who were on good terms with the Zheng and Yang families all came to help. Fortunately, it was summer and there was no shortage of vegetables in the village.

There is plenty of pork in Zheng Xiaoman's sausage workshop. Just pulling two of them over would be enough for today's banquet.

There were also chickens, ducks, fish and meat brought by each family, and soon the kitchen was filled with fragrance.

The big issue at home was resolved, and Zhou Chunfeng and Li Cuixia were in a particularly good mood.

There were twelve dishes on the table, and the two people were very generous, so eight of them were fish and meat.

I am so happy today that no one cares about that little bit of money anymore.

Yang Changqing walked into the room with a smile, "My Lords, the food is ready, let's go and eat first."

Fang Xiucai happily stood up first, "Okay, I'm hungry now, let's go eat first."

Lord Meng and Lord Qian of course followed him, and several of them went to the Zheng family's house.

The Zheng family prepared three tables of food in the main courtyard for the three of them and the dozen or so soldiers.
