Whose farming family has the male protagonist giving three piglets as a gift at the beginning?

"Is it possible?" Su Ziling's face was full of question marks.

Shen Xingye smiled awkwardly, "I'm not sure either, but my old man should be able to handle it, right?"

As he spoke, he became a little unconfident. He then frowned and gritted his teeth, "Never mind, let the old man solve it. I am young and it is understandable that I am not thoughtful, but why doesn't he think more about it when he is old? Isn't this cheating his son!"

Su Ziling: "..."

Are you sure you're not trying to trick your father?

"Your father is so lucky to have a filial son like you!"

Shen Xingye raised his chin, his face full of pride, "Yes, I think so too. The old man is so lucky to have a son like me who is smart, suave, and handsome in his life."

Su Ziling looked at Lu Yan, pointed his finger, his eyes full of: Are you sure there is nothing wrong with him?

Lu Yan had obviously gotten used to it, "Just get used to it. During the next period of time," he paused, "I'll try to keep an eye on him," so that you suffer less.

"What are you talking about?" Shen Xingye's eyes were confused.

Su Ziling smiled and changed the subject, "I'm praising you. Have you eaten yet? If not, we can eat together."

When Shen Xingye heard about eating, he became excited, his eyes lit up, "No, I came here specially to save my stomach, just thinking of rushing to eat with you."

Lu Yan glanced at him and said, "You are so nice. I was just asking politely, but you really took it seriously?"

"What do you care about me? You have the nerve to eat here every day. I just come here once in a while to eat. What's there to be embarrassed about?"

"I was paid for my meals, and I also did some physical labor. How about you?" He looked him up and down, "You came here with nothing in your hands."

Shen Xingye snorted complacently, "Then you are wrong. Am I such an ignorant person? I brought something with me today."

Then he called out to Chang Ce behind him, "Chang Ce, bring the things over here."

Changce tied up the horse, threw some hay to it, and took down a few boxes from the carriage, both large and small.

"Oh, you're much more sensible today." Lu Yan raised his eyebrows.

"But what's the matter with your two carriages?"

Shen Xingye's smile froze immediately, and he hesitated for a long time, "Well, I just thought that the sweet potatoes had just been unearthed recently, so I wanted to bring back more sweet potato flour. After all, although the old man had good intentions but ended up doing something bad with this pilot project, he also contributed a lot."

As he spoke, his voice became much softer, because the sweet potato flour here at Su Ziling's place is limited, and they have an idea of ​​the amount every month. This month they already have enough, and they would feel a little uneasy if they asked for more now.

Thinking about the fact that he has a lot of fans recently, Su Ziling nodded readily, "Okay, you can bring a cart back later."

"Ah? You agreed so quickly?"

"What? You don't want it? Then I won't give it to you." Su Ziling also wanted to tease him. He said he wouldn't give it to him, but his eyes were full of smiles.

"No, no, no, I want it. Hehe, I know that Xiaoqing is the best. But isn't it too difficult to use the entire prefecture as a pilot? If it doesn't work, I'll talk to my dad. We can try Yongchang County this year, and if it works, we can try Nanning Prefecture next year."

He used the name "father" instead of "old man", and it can be seen that Shen Xingye was serious.

Su Ziling shook his head. It was impossible to change the words just by saying so. "Two states and fourteen counties are a bit rushed, but it should be in time from now on."

"Besides, Daliang is eyeing us covetously and the war is raging. At this time, more food means more security. If my planting method is widely feasible, can't it be promoted nationwide next year?"

"You still know that Daliang is eyeing you covetously?" Shen Xingye widened his eyes.

Su Ziling smiled sheepishly, "I just heard from the passing caravans that the border is very unstable right now, and I guess the escorts won't be able to run for much longer."

"You should ask Lu Yan about this. He travels around everywhere and he knows more."

Lu Yan raised his hand and slapped him on the back of his head, "Is that what I call running around?"

"Is it not enough for me to say something? Sister Xiaoqing, you have to keep this guy under control. It's not good to have the habit of hitting people at every turn." Shen Xingye covered the back of his head and walked to Su Ziling and started to complain openly.

Su Ziling said: "I can't control this. By the way, when do you plan to start?"

"When? Of course the sooner the better, but my father said that the higher-ups have sent an agricultural promotion envoy and a deputy envoy to accompany us. We don't know when they will arrive, and my father didn't even tell us who they are. He's very secretive."

Agricultural envoy?

Su Ziling knew about this position, and it seemed that Shen Xingye's assessment was reported by the Agricultural Promotion Envoy.

"Is that so? Let's wait a little longer, but we can't just sit there and do nothing. We can let everyone ferment the manure first, and it will be ready for use in May or June next year."

"Don't worry about this. I have already notified everyone and explained the method to them. There shouldn't be any problem. We can teach them and see what happens."

A few people came into the yard, talking and laughing. Grandpa Su and his friends had not returned from the fields yet, and Grandma Su was making clothes in the yard.

It is a little cold in the morning and evening, but it will be very warm as long as the sun shines. When winter comes, Su's grandmother's favorite thing is to sit in the yard and bask in the sun.

"Grandma, I'm here to eat again."

Maybe it was because he had been here too many times and he was not arrogant. He always spoke to Grandma Su and the others with a smile on his face and without any airs. Over time, even though they knew he was the county magistrate, Grandma Su and the others no longer felt afraid of him.

For example, at this moment, the young man was wearing a crescent-shaped white robe, smiling like a flower, and he was also handsome. At this moment, a sweet call of "A-nai" was like his own child coming back. How could he even think of being afraid?

"Hey, Xiaoye is here, hurry up and get a stool to bask in the sun. Your grandpa and the others will be back soon. You came at the right time today. Xiaoqing made a pot of taro tea. You haven't tried that yet, right?"

"No, what Sister Xiaoqing cooks must be delicious!" Shen Xingye didn't hesitate to take a stool and sat next to Grandma Su.

"Changce, put the things in the kitchen," he said to Su Ziling, "Sister Xiaoqing, when I came here, I bought some meat and kidneys. The kidneys you fried last time were delicious."

"Okay, I'll fry it for you." We happened to have pickled peppers at home. Fried kidney with pickled peppers is the best way to go with rice. The sour and spicy taste is especially appetizing.

"Bring more things. It's not easy for you to be alone in the county. You can keep the money for yourself. You don't need to bring it to grandma. There is no shortage of things at home."

Grandma Su poured him a cup of tea and moved the table closer to him.

There were still cakes, melon seeds and chestnuts on the table.

"Thank you, grandma. I can do it myself," Shen Xingye took it with both hands. "Grandma, I have enough food. I am just greedy. The chef in the mansion always cooks kidney well. Sister Xiaoqing's is better. It is tender and goes well with rice."

"You like it, so come over when you're free and ask her to make it for you. Sit for a while and I'll get you some jerky. I remember you like it."

Grandma Su put her clothes aside, got up and went into the house to get the pork jerky.

She liked to eat it very much and would chew a few slices when her mouth was free, so Su Ziling would make it for her after she finished eating. Therefore, there was no shortage of food in Grandma Su's room.
