Exiled to Lingnan, the Crown Prince's wife raises children, cultivates the land, and leads the

"Qiqi, what do you think? Is this okay?"

When Marquis Zhongyong saw Cheng Qiqi and Liu Suyi arriving together carrying steamed buns, he quickly called Cheng Qiqi over and asked, "That blond guy was talking about planting this wide, right?"

Yellow hair?

Blonde foreigners?

It doesn't seem to make any mistakes.

Cheng Qiqi stepped forward, took a look, and said, "Yes, that's what that person meant."

"Dad, you must be tired after a long morning. Come and have some steamed buns. I brought some pickled cabbage and oyster sauce."

Cheng Qiqi laid out the pickled cabbage and oyster sauce, paired with large white steamed buns, broke them in half, and stuffed them with the stir-fried pickled cabbage and oyster sauce. The taste was still very good!

The porridge was specially brought over by Jin Yanzhi.

After eating porridge and steamed buns in the field to fill their stomachs, they can continue working.

Cheng Qiqi's eyes fell on the sugarcane field, and she said, "Dad, let's plant some edamame in the middle of the sugarcane."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, Marquis Zhongyong said tactfully, "Qiqi, I know you're worried about not having enough land to plant, but what if you plant it in the middle of the sugarcane fields and end up with nothing at both ends?"

Edamame can be a natural fertilizer, improving the soil!

While thinking to herself, Cheng Qiqi said on the surface, "Dad, let's try planting a little. Edamame can grow anywhere. What if it grows well even if we plant it in the middle of sugarcane?"

"That way, we won't waste space, right?"

Cheng Qiqi strongly urged that planting sugarcane and edamame together would definitely not be a problem.

"Then, let's give it a try."

Marquis Zhongyong agreed.

Grandpa Jin glanced at Cheng Qiqi, then at Jin Yi, and finally said nothing. At worst, he would just harvest less sugarcane from this acre of sugarcane.

Cheng Qiqi has made so much money with them, what should she do?

So the Jin family agreed.

When the village head came over to ask how they were planting peanuts, he saw that they had also planted edamame in the middle of their sugarcane field. He immediately widened his eyes and said, "Aren't you guys being ridiculous? You planted sugarcane and then edamame. If the sugarcane doesn't grow well, it won't fetch a good price!"

Sugar mills buy sugarcane by weight!

It's neither long nor thick, so where does its weight come from?

"Lord Zhuang, let's give it a try. There are just too many things to plant, and there's really no room for them."

Jin Yanzhi walked forward with a grin. He didn't mention his sister-in-law, otherwise, what if everyone criticized her for planting things haphazardly?

"..."

Zhuang Li was silent for a while, thinking that they still had to plant sorghum, wheat, peanuts and persimmons. The roadside was almost full of them. The Jin family was still diligently clearing land!

Even if the Jin family members who were exiled earned money, they still needed to be careful with their money; otherwise, they would need money for everything.

At noon, Chu Zheng returned to the Jin family with her three children. She only saw the women and not the men. She asked in confusion and then looked thoughtful when she learned that the men of the Jin family were all growing grains brought by overseas merchants.

"Madam Su, you are the wife of the county magistrate. Can the grain seeds from overseas merchants really produce good results?"

Lin Huilan couldn't help but think that Cheng Qiqi's words were enough to exhaust her son, who would go to the mountain to practice martial arts before dawn and then go to work in the fields as soon as it got light.

After finally finishing spring planting and planting most of the sugarcane, Cheng Qiqi was about to take a break, but then she started getting into planting some kind of grain from overseas merchants.

"Merchants from overseas come every year to exchange many good things with the Great Xia Kingdom."

Chu Zheng had never heard of the grain varieties grown by overseas merchants, but instinctively wanting to protect Cheng Qiqi, she said, "Perhaps we need to grow these here too?"

Chu Zheng beckoned to Dongzao and said, "Dongzao, go to the estate and get some people to help with the farming."

"Yes."

Dongzao immediately agreed and got into the carriage to return to the village.

"Madam Su, that's going to be too much of a fuss."

Liu Suyi also spoke up.

"An'an is Tangtang's savior. You all call her Madam Su so formally. Just call me Zhengzheng, and I'll call you Aunt Liu?"

Chu Zheng corrected her, "Aunt Liu, don't worry, there are many people on the estate who are idle. Letting them come and do some work will give them a break."

"Zhengzheng, so you mean we've never grown the grains grown by overseas merchants?"

Lin Huilan was confused by what Chu Zheng said, and only realized what was going on when they started correcting the way she addressed them.

"Aunt Lin, the county government has also planted the grain seeds from overseas merchants, but we haven't harvested any yet. How will we know if we don't try planting some ourselves?"

Chu Zheng raised her eyes. She had no kind words for concubines and mistresses. When she had just given birth to her daughter, her mother-in-law was arranging for Su Ming to take a concubine, which made her so angry that she almost stopped producing breast milk!

Fortunately, Su Ming focused on passing the imperial examinations.

After Su Ming passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, his mother-in-law forced him to take a concubine.

Although Su Ming cared for her and her daughter, he couldn't resist his mother-in-law's direct use of medication...

Chu Zheng lowered his eyes, concealing the anger in them, and said, "Qiqi, it's perfect timing. Tangtang's father also wants to try planting some grains from overseas merchants. We can exchange ideas."

"Great, that's a good idea. If it grows well, we can plant more next year."

Cheng Qiqi changed the subject.

Aunt Lin?

Why is Liu Suyi considered Aunt Liu, while she is Aunt Lin?

Lin Huilan, standing to the side, could barely contain herself. "She's just a minor county magistrate's wife?"

What's so great about it!

Lin Huilan could barely eat anymore. She held herself down tightly, lowered her eyes to hide the anger in them, and waited. After the master was exonerated, he would make her pay!

After lunch, Jin Sui'an took Tangtang to take a nap. The two little sisters chattered away, as if they had endless things to talk about.

"Tangtang ate half a bowl of rice today. She really liked the sauerkraut rice you made. I'll buy some to take home."

Chu Zheng now wants to buy everything his daughter can eat.

She went to great lengths to get her daughter to eat more and gain weight.

"it is good."

Cheng Qiqi said, "I've noticed that when Tangtang is in a good mood, she eats faster, doesn't she?"

"right."

Chu Zheng nodded and said, "In the past, Tangtang would resist eating at mealtimes. Every time we ate, I would take her to the side hall and feed her little by little."

We have to be careful, otherwise, she'll vomit as soon as we feed her.

"Maybe he was with An'an and An'an dragged him into eating with her."

Cheng Qiqi had high hopes for her daughter, An'an, as no one could resist her sweet smile.

"yes."

Chu Zheng sighed, watching her daughter fall asleep alongside An'an. Her heart was filled with an indescribable sense of happiness.

Her sugar will definitely get better and better in the future.

In the afternoon, Dongzao indeed brought more than a dozen men. Under Chu Zhengyi's instructions, they went to the Jin family's land to help clear wasteland and plant crops.

"What? The people summoned by the magistrate's wife?"

"Madam Cheng is truly blessed. Why wasn't it me who saved the magistrate's daughter?"

"I heard they sent a lot of thank-you gifts."

The villagers were so envious of all the people helping the Jin family clear land and cultivate it.
