Started as a thatched house and ended up as a female figure

Cheng Wan didn't go to Xu Mansion just to see Xu Zhinian. She asked the servant guarding the gate of Xu Mansion to convey to her that she had something urgent to do today and that she couldn't take Xu Zhinian home with her. Then she rode horseback to chase Gu Yan and the others. .

The two carriages slowed down Gu Yan and the others, and Cheng Wan didn't waste much time, so she quickly caught up with the large group.

Mu Yao took the lead in the middle, Liang Da followed closely behind Mu Yao, and Gu Yan and Cheng Wan lined up behind Liang Da. Thirty soldiers wearing armor and riding horses surrounded two carriages and lined up behind Gu Yan and Cheng Wan.

This unusual team caused a sensation as soon as they entered Pingnan Village.

The villagers in Pingnan Village watched in shock and panic as the soldiers marched into the village. They wondered what was happening.

Some villagers with quick legs had already hurried to the workshop construction site to report the news to Village Chief Wu and the men in the village.

"Eh? Isn't that Cheng Wan?" A woman bravely looked up at the leaders of the team and shouted in surprise.

The man next to the woman stood up on his heels and squinted after hearing this. Then his eyes lit up and he said loudly: "It's Cheng Wan! And the young man next to Cheng Wan seems to have been to our village before, and it's Cheng Wan." The day my family held a housewarming party.”

"That shouldn't be a bad thing. Cheng Wan is riding majestically on the horse! Let's just follow him from a distance and take a look at the excitement."

When a woman heard this, she quickly shook her head and said, "You go ahead. I don't dare to go. If those military lords and wealthy people are upset, I won't have room to cry!"

As soon as these words came out, the villagers who were originally excited to follow and watch the excitement immediately calmed down.

Yes, how can the bustling life of rich people and soldiers be so beautiful?

Most of the villagers chose to stand there, craning their necks to look in the direction Cheng Wan and the others left, and chatting. However, there were still a few brave and curious villagers who followed them from a distance.

The team stopped near Cheng Wan's house. Cheng Wan led Mu Yao, Gu Yan, Liang Da and eight soldiers into the sweet potato shed.

These eight soldiers were specially selected by Mu Yao and came from peasant families. They were all accustomed to farm work in the past.

There are other soldiers who are used to farm work before, but the sweet potato shed is only so big and there will be too many people there, so it will be very crowded.

Cheng Wan pointed to the sweet potatoes on the ground, "This small pile of sweet potatoes was dug out by my mother, my third brother, and I before. All the sweet potatoes are in this shed. Be gentle when digging the sweet potatoes to avoid damaging them as much as possible." epidermis."

As she spoke, Cheng Wan took a sickle and cut off a section of the sweet potato vine. Then she squatted down and dug up the sweet potatoes with her hands. "Just dig out the sweet potatoes like this and clean the mud off them."

After watching Cheng Wan's movements, Mu Yao and Gu Yan squatted down and started to do it themselves. They each dug out a sweet potato with extremely gentle movements.

Gu Yan carefully inspected the palm-sized sweet potato in his hand to make sure that the skin of the sweet potato was not damaged, and then carefully put the sweet potato aside.

Mu Yao handed the sweet potato with the intact skin in his hand to Liang Da, turned to look at the eight soldiers, and said coldly: "Be gentle on your hands. I only require that as many sweet potatoes as possible be intact and intact, and I do not require that the sweet potatoes be dug." How fast, do you understand?”

Facing Mu Yao's cold gaze, the eight soldiers bowed their heads and said respectfully: "I understand."

Each of the eight soldiers chose a place and began to dig sweet potatoes.

Cheng Wan saluted Mu Yao and said, "Your Majesty, please go down and explain the situation to your family so that they won't worry."

"Go."

As soon as Cheng Wan came out of the sweet potato shed, she saw Wang and others who looked uneasy and wanted to go in but didn't dare to go in without permission.

"Mom, it's okay. I offered the sweet potatoes. Prince Mu and the others are here to dig them."

Wang breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, she had guessed what Mu Yao and others were here for. After all, Mu Yao and others went straight to the sweet potato shed after arriving.

She just guessed, but without getting the exact information, she still felt a little uncontrollably worried.

"Do you need us to go in and help? Your third brother and I have both dug sweet potatoes."

Cheng Wan shook his head. Firstly, the sweet potato shed would be very crowded. Secondly, if the family members were kind enough to help but accidentally hurt the sweet potatoes, it would not be easy for Mu Yao.

Cheng Wan pulled Wang and Xiao Lin away, and Deng Xiong led Cheng Xiaoyu and the others to follow them quickly.

"Mom, are you unhappy that I donated the sweet potatoes without permission?"

In fact, before Cheng Wan left home today, she thought about whether to tell her family that she was going to present sweet potatoes to Prince Rui, but then she thought that if she told her family, most of her family would be worried about her going by herself and would have to accompany her. .

This time going to Prince Rui was not just about offering sweet potatoes. Cheng Wan didn't want her family to take unknown risks. After thinking about it, Cheng Wan didn't say anything.

Mrs. Wang looked at Cheng Wan with some surprise. The next moment, she patted Cheng Wan on the shoulder with a smile on her face, and said lovingly: "You bought the sweet potatoes by chance. They can grow because of your contribution." At least 70%, Ah Wan, you just have to decide what’s yours, don’t worry about whether others are happy or not. Besides,”

Wang glanced at the sweet potato shed, then at the soldiers standing upright in the distance, and said in a low voice: "Although my mother is an ordinary peasant woman, she also knows that sweet potatoes are not something that ordinary people should only have. You can donate them." Now, my mother feels relieved."

Xiao Lin saw that the mother-in-law Wang had finished speaking, and then she said, "Ah Wan, don't think so much. You are the best in our family. Just do what you want to do, and we will support you."

Deng Xiong and Cheng Xiaoyu also nodded in unison.

Cheng Wan felt warm in her heart, and the smile on her face became brighter and brighter.

"Mom, aunt, I will give you a surprise tonight."

After saying that, Cheng Wan was silent for a moment, thinking to herself: "It must be a surprise..."

"Girl Wan." Village Chief Wu hurried over from the workshop site with a few men. When he saw the soldiers who were full of murderous aura, he couldn't help but feel panic and fear. He didn't dare to get too close and stood slightly. There was a shout from a distance.

Cheng Wan walked over quickly and said with a smile: "Village chief, it's okay. The things grown in my shed are liked by the adults above. Once the things in the shed are dug up, these military masters will leave."

Village Chief Wu glanced in the direction of the sweet potato shed, and his heart dropped. He didn't ask Cheng Wan what was grown in the shed at home. He just smiled and narrowed his eyes, and said cheerfully: "That's OK. If anything happens, just say hello, as long as you can help me, people in the village can't just stand around."

"Hey! I understand. Don't worry. Is everything going well in the workshop?"

When he mentioned the workshop, the smile on Village Chief Wu's face grew wider, "Everything went smoothly, there were many people working, and the foundation has been laid out in less than a day!"

"Village Chief, you have worked hard, and everyone has also worked hard. When the workshop is completed, I will treat everyone to a nice meal!"
