In the year of disaster in the book, the villain girl is the real winner

Working in the fields, seeing He Huaizhang's mule cart returning to the village, Old Man He, who also followed, spoke slowly: "Over the years, your mother and I have never restrained you, so your heart has become wild. Your second and third brothers earn money to support your studies, but you only care about your own enjoyment. Do you know what the Wei family has done? You know it in your heart. If you insist on not listening to your mother and me, that's fine."

"You two can separate. Return the property and money that belong to the He family. You can take Wei and Erlang Daya with you. Hold on to your salary and the remaining money that Wei has saved from the grocery store over the years. You can live the way you want. Your mother and I have three unmarried children to take care of. We can't let your family of four have whatever they want."

"Over the years, the He family has supported your studies, saved up a teaching position for you, and married you to Wei. This is really a great honor for you."

He Huaizhang couldn't help but burst into tears when he heard this: "Dad, Dad..."

He wanted to point at Mr. He and say that he looked down on him, the eldest son who was also a teacher, because he saw He Qiudi fawning on him at the banquet.

But he didn't dare.

Wei didn't dare to refute and said that the grocery store had no money.

He Qiudi hooked up with this noble family man at Yanshi, but now the He family has other ambitions, and she and He Huaizhang have fallen out of favor!

Mr. He is not as partial to He Huaizhang as Mrs. He.

Now that the old man knows about the old house and the grocery store, things won’t be easy.

so far so good.

She can afford another three hundred taels of silver.

If she paid another three hundred taels, she would still have three hundred taels in savings, as well as a house and a grocery store in Wei County.

Whenever she had time, she would invest all her money into buying food. If the drought continued in another two months and food prices went up, this grocery store would surely help her earn back several hundred taels of silver.

By then, all the losses this time will be made up.

but.

I have to follow the arrangements of my father-in-law and mother-in-law and come back to live in Shiliu Village.

After she had appeased her mother-in-law, she would find a reason to go back to Wei County for a short stay. She would use the excuse of taking care of her mother's illness and stay in Wei County for a year or two. Her mother-in-law would not say anything.

Say.

Letting their eldest wife return to Shiliu Village might not be a bad thing.

The banquet was held in Shiliu Village, which gave Qingshu a good opportunity to get in touch with him.

As long as Qingshu can snatch Yanshi from He Qiudi, and Yanshi gives them anything, their eldest wife will have all her revenge.

The master could also spend more time with Yan Shi. After all, he is He Qiudi's elder brother. As long as he can get in touch with him, he can also move to the position of county magistrate. After all, the master is capable, and the positions of county magistrate in Wei County and Lan County have been vacant.

With help from higher-ups, it shouldn't be difficult to appoint a county magistrate.

After He Qiudi and the other two came back, He Huaizhang and Wei had calmed down.

Seeing He Qiudi coming back, He Huaizhang greeted her with a smile: "Little sister, it's been a long time since we last met. You have really become more sensible. The He family depends on you."

Yo.

He Qiudi was a little uncomfortable with having such a big hat put on her head as soon as she came back.

How can the He family rely on a daughter? He Huaizhang is quite weird.

He Qiudi smiled and said, "Brother, you are becoming more and more energetic. It is really my sister-in-law who is amazing and knows how to take good care of you. From now on, with my sister-in-law as the mistress of the He family, you don't have to worry about anything. After all, my sister-in-law is devoted to you and wants to donate a county magistrate for you. My sister-in-law is so good at saving money. I believe that in a few years, my brother's wish will come true and he will become a county magistrate as he wishes."

He Huaizhang: “…”

When it comes to the fact that Wei can be the master of He Huaizhang, even Old Lady He beside her looks unhappy.

My mother-in-law is not dead yet.

When will it be the daughter-in-law's turn to make the decision?

She just gave Wei too much, which made Wei's heart wild and her appetite bigger.

He even dared to embezzle from the He family’s old house and grocery store!

Old Lady He could not help but glare at Wei fiercely, scaring her so much that she shrank her neck and chopped pig grass. She had not done this kind of work for many years, and it was so hard and tiring that she could not bear it at all.

Tomorrow I will go to the city to pick up Erlang and Qingshu, pack their luggage, and bring Mrs. Lin back with them to help her with the work.

When Grandma He saw that He Qiudi brought back some fish, snails and wild vegetables, she started to prepare dinner.

Seeing that it was still early, He Qiudi continued to run out and play.

He Huaizhang came back to apologize, and Old Lady He even used the ingredients she got outside to make a sumptuous dinner for the couple. Just thinking about it made her feel uncomfortable.

Congested.

Besides, she already knows how to cook several complicated dishes using pheasant, hare, fish and mushrooms, and she doesn’t want to learn from Grandma He.

I was just chatting with Yanshi's cook at the old well and filling the well with water when I saw Yanshi leading his men back from the hillside west of Shiliu Village. Except for Yanshi, everyone else was carrying things.

He Qiudi saw them carrying large and small boxes, as well as some burlap bags, and guessed that these should be the spoils seized from the bandit’s lair in Phoenix Mountain.

Thinking of corn, He Qiudi clapped his hands, stood up, and walked towards the banquet with ease.

"Have you seized all the bandits' belongings?"

Walking in front of Yan Shi, He Qiudi looked behind him with a curious look on his face.

Yan Shi smiled and explained, "Some valuable things and food."

"Oh. Are you all registered then?"

Yan Shi shook his head: "Not yet."

Since it has not been registered yet, it’s easy.

Then she could find a way to exchange all the corn stored in the port space. While it was still possible to plant, she could plant more corn to save for next year's planting.

"Can I take a look later? My family needs to buy food. If there is any food that my family is short of, I will buy it from you."

"it is good."

While the subordinates at the banquet were moving all the things back to the camp, He Qiudi found two sacks of food placed in a remote corner. While no one was paying attention, he replaced the mixture of beans and wheat in them with golden, glittering grains of corn.

After the change, He Qiudi exclaimed in a serious manner.

"Wow. I actually saw corn at the banquet. There are two bags of corn. Can you sell me one?"

"corn?"

Yan Shi frowned, how come he didn't know there was such food?

He walked over and looked at the grain in the sack, and found that it was indeed something he didn't recognize.

The golden grains are shaped like buckwheat, but a little bigger than buckwheat grains, about the same size as soybeans.

All the supplies seized from the bandits' den were counted by him.

There is no such crop among all the food.

He Qiudi ignored his surprise and continued, "Ahem, I saw him at the camel merchant's place."

As soon as He Qiudi mentioned the "camel merchant", Yan Shi immediately understood.

Although he didn't know how He Qiudi replaced the beans and wheat originally in the sack with the "corn" she said, he would not ask any further questions.

Yan Shi replied, "Here are two bags. You can take them all."

"Leave a bag of corn seeds and find someone to help you plant them." He Qiudi smiled and explained, "The last time I went to the city to see you, I bought some corn from a camel merchant. The camel merchant introduced corn to me. He said that on the same land, corn can yield more than one dan more than other crops. He also told me how to plant it."

Yan Shi then realized that she wanted to give him a higher yield of grain.

He asked subconsciously: "Can you buy more corn? I'll buy it from you."

"Uh……"

Where did she buy the corn and resell it to him?

She got this corn from the port space.

They were grown on the farm she had contracted before, and she kept a few bags to make corn buns.

There were only two bags left. She kept one pound and took out the rest.

Where would she get him more seed corn?

Isn't this just shooting yourself in the foot?
