Divorced by her husband's family and rejected by her own! She defiantly turned her life around

After a moment's thought, Liu Siyue said, "Ten seedlings for one coin, I'm definitely not making a single coin off you. Chili seeds are hard to come by, and I also have to spend manpower to cultivate and manage them. I haven't even factored in those costs."

One acre can probably grow about 3000 to 5000 seedlings; you can do the math yourself.

"How much fruit will this acre of land yield in April?"

"It's about 1000 jin (500 catties), but it depends on the specific situation. It could be more or less. You all understand without me having to say it."

"There's one more thing I want to make clear to everyone: you have to plant the exact amount of seedlings you buy. If I find out that someone is reselling chili seedlings, I won't buy them even if you manage to grow them."

"Uncle Village Chief, please register this matter carefully. I only want to help the villagers, not those who betray their own community."

"Don't worry, I'll send people to check every household in April. Anyone who dares to do such a thing will be barred from participating in village affairs in the future."

Uncle Village Chief, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving with my second uncle.

"Okay, you guys go first, leave the rest to me."

When the villagers heard that the yield was so high, some of them did have the idea of ​​buying more for their relatives to grow.

Liu Siyue's words completely dispelled their thoughts; they decided to focus on taking care of their own families first.

As soon as they left, the villagers were in an uproar. "Chili peppers can bear fruit so easily? 1000 jin (500 catties) of this fruit is some kind of magical fruit!"

"Let's do the math. If each mu (unit of land area) produces 1000 jin (unit of weight), we can earn 15 taels of silver."

"Don't even think about producing 1000 catties. Even if you can produce 500 catties or 300 catties, do the math. You can still earn several taels of silver per mu, which is more than you can earn in a year of hard work."

"Plant, we must plant. Reserve enough land for our own food, and plant the rest with chili peppers."

"In April, you said that chili peppers could yield 1000 jin per mu (approximately 667 catties per hectare). Is that true or false?"

"Would I lie to everyone? If you grow them well, you might get more; if you don't grow them well, you might get less."

"I'm just afraid that if you promise such a large output, but it doesn't actually come that way, the villagers will complain about you."

"Didn't I make it clear to them? They are responsible for bearing the risks themselves."

Second Uncle, haven't you always wanted to see that farm? I'll take you there this afternoon.

"Okay, okay, let's go this afternoon."

"Second Uncle, let's grow the chili seedlings in the fields. The soil there is good and watering is convenient. You can take care of growing the seedlings."

"Okay, you teach your second uncle."

After lunch, Liu Siyue was going to take Liu Dawang to visit the farm. Madam Feng also wanted to go with them, as she was also looking forward to and longing to own her own farm.

"Anyone else who wants to go, get on the bus. It's not far, we'll be back in a bit."

As a result, the whole family wanted to go, and the oxcart couldn't fit them all, so they brought out a horse-drawn carriage.

"Second Uncle, there are still some servants on that estate. Their indentures are in your hands. We didn't go during the New Year. This time, let's give them some gifts so they can work hard."

"What do you think we should reward you with? Your second uncle and your mother don't know anything about it."

"Give them some food and reward each of them with 200 copper coins."

After preparing their belongings, the group went to the estate.

"Second Uncle, have you seen the indentures of those people on the estate?"

"I didn't check, but I think there were nine people."

"Yes, there are 9 people."

They were a family who were in charge of managing the estate. The elderly couple, Sun Changlin and Li Yuniang, had four sons and one daughter.

The eldest son is Sun Rong, and his wife is Bai Cao; the second son is Sun Fu, and his wife is Jiang Lanlan; the third son is Sun Lu, who is not yet married; the daughter is Sun Xiaolian, who is not yet married; and the youngest son is Sun Shou.

Second Uncle, these people are now under your command. You're a real landlord now!

Hehehe! Da Liuwang chuckled foolishly, "Second Uncle has remembered everything he taught me."

Madam Feng rolled her eyes at Liu Dawang, "Look at you, so useless."

When Liu Siyue and her group arrived at the estate, Qingwu stepped forward and called out, "Open the door quickly, the master has arrived!"

Sun Changlin's family was sitting in the house warming themselves by the fire when they were startled to hear someone shout that their master had arrived. They were just talking about how their master hadn't come before or after the New Year, and they didn't know how they were going to farm this year.

"Quickly call all the family members out; the master has arrived. Go and greet him!"

Sun Changlin led his family to the gate of the estate, opened the gate, and said, "Master, you've arrived. Please come in quickly."

"Greetings, Master! Greetings, Master!"

Happy New Year, everyone!

The group entered the manor and arrived at their lodgings. "Uncle Sun will formally introduce you. This is my second uncle, Liu Dawang, who is your true master. This is my mother, my second uncle's first wife, and your master's wife."

You don't need to be curious as to why my mother is my second uncle's wife.

I recognized my second aunt as my mother, it's that simple, I am their daughter.

These are your master's daughters.

Sun Changlin led his family to kneel down quickly, "Greetings, Master, Madam, and Misses."

Remembering what Liu Siyue had said, Liu Dawang and Madam Feng quickly told them to get up.

Liu Dawang looked at Siyue, who smiled back at him. "Second Uncle, just say what you want to say. We're all family now, there's nothing we can't talk about."

"Master, please feel free to speak your mind or give me any orders. I will do as you say."

"Sun Zhuangtou, we couldn't come before the New Year because we had too many things to do at home. Now that the New Year is over, we've finally had some free time to come and see you."

How are you all doing here?

"The food left to us by the Lord's family lasted until the end of the year, but now we have run out of food and have been eating grass roots dug up from the ground."

Upon hearing this, Liu Siyue felt a pang of guilt. "Uncle Sun, I'm so sorry. I didn't expect this, and I didn't tell my second uncle. It was all my oversight."

"I've brought you food, meat, and vegetables this time. Quickly have someone unload the food so you can cook and eat."

"Oh, oh! Thank you, sir, thank you, miss."

Tears welled in the family's eyes. The host had finally remembered them, and they would no longer starve.

Liu Dawang took out a money bag and put it in Sun Zhuangtou's hand, "This is your New Year's reward money, 200 coins each, keep it safe."

Sun Zhuangtou and his family knelt down again, saying, "Thank you for your reward, sir."

"Get up quickly, let's cook dinner first."

"Mother, Second Uncle was wrong. I'm afraid the people on my estate are in the same boat as them, they have nothing to eat either. I have to send them food tomorrow."

"Why didn't you say so sooner, child? What if he had starved to death?"

"I didn't think too much about it at the time; I just wanted to give my second uncle a surprise during the Lunar New Year!"

"Miss, have you perhaps taken over all of Master Lin's estates?"

"Yes, I bought all of Master Lin's estates."

"Then there's no need to think about it. It's definitely the same as us. Master Lin has calculated the rations for us."

"I'm so sorry, Uncle Sun, I've never managed a farm before and I don't know anything about it."

"Miss, please don't call me that. You can just call me Sun Zhuangtou or Old Sun."

Sun Rong and his younger brothers moved all the things from the car into the house, and Li Yuniang took her daughter-in-law and daughters to cook.

"Mother, look how many good things the master has sent, including meat and tofu. We can finally have a full meal. We didn't get to eat during the New Year, so we're making up for it now."

"It's Chinese New Year now, so the food is the same."
