Stepmother's Adoption Letter

Chapter 160 Debt Collection (2)
Brother Hong was motion sick, and leaned on the soft cushion with his eyes closed to rest his mind.Yuan Lu pressed the acupuncture points on his hand, and he didn't refuse this time.

After walking for more than an hour, Yuan Lu herself felt drowsy, and the carriage finally stopped.

Qing Jiang got out of the car first, and then helped Yuan Lu and Brother Hong down.

Zhuangzi's steward was already waiting aside. He looked to be in his early twenties, and he was wearing a cotton jacket.Seeing them coming down, the steward stepped forward to salute and said, "The young one has seen the madam, and the eldest young master."

Yuan Lu lifted the veil cap, nodded and said, "It's the manager."

The steward smiled and said, "It's the young one. Please come inside, Madam and Eldest Young Master." As he spoke, he was about to bring them into the house.

Yuan Lu said, "Don't worry, I sent someone to inform you yesterday that our trip is just to see the farmland on Zhuangzi, so you don't need to say anything, just take us to see it."

The steward said: "The weather is still cold, and the world is deserted. Even if Madam went to see, she couldn't see anything."

Yuan Lu snorted coldly, "Where are we going and what are we looking at? Do we have to explain it to you?"

The steward immediately said: "The young ones don't dare, the young ones don't dare." But in fact, there was no panic in my heart.What does your wife who came out of the capital know about farming?Besides, what can be seen by looking at this bare field ridge?

The steward recruited a quick-legged kid to lead the way, and he wrapped up his sleeves, following behind with a half-smile.

The field was indeed as he said, it was all bare.Not even half of the figure could be seen.

Yuan Lu walked for a while, and saw that the field was clean and free of weeds.It can be seen that even when it is not farming, there are still people taking good care of it.

She stopped slowly, and called the steward to herself, "Take me to meet the farmers who are farming."

There are hundreds of acres of fertile land, and the manpower on the village is definitely not enough.They all pay money and let people with a lot of men in the nearby villages come to help grow them.Of course, there are also families with children, commonly known as black households, who contract the fields to their families and pay some money every year.

Speaking of which, this piece of land was one of the emperor's many rewards back then, but it was very inconspicuous compared to the others, and it was easy to be overlooked.

When it comes to seeing farmers, the manager is not very willing.People who plan food in the fields are honest, and a few questions can explain the generations of their ancestors clearly.However, he had already prepared his back move, so he took Yuan Lu and the others to the east without haste.

Who knew that Yuan Lu stopped at a fork in the road and went in another direction.

The steward scolded her in his heart, and chased him to persuade him: "Ma'am, the path here is rough, I'm afraid it's not easy to walk. I'll take you to a better village."

Yuan Lu sneered and said, "I'll see if the village is good or bad. There's no need for you to point fingers here."

The steward wanted to say more, but the senior senior stood in front of him holding the knife at his waist.He shrank his shoulders and dared not say anything more.
