After traveling through time, I married the prince by signing in

Chapter 20 Comforting Your Aging Soul

Yuanfu, Yonghe Street.

After listening to Yuan Yi's report, Yuan Man thought for a moment and said, "Send a message to the prince and give him the wheat seeds in three days."

Then I looked at the invitation in my hand and wondered whether I should attend.

The Luo family married their daughter off to the son of the prefect of Xiaocheng.

Finally decided to go.

At this time, the Luo family was also discussing whether she would come to the wedding banquet.

Luo Jiashu looked at Butler Luo and asked, "Did the other party send a letter to confirm that it had arrived?"

Butler Luo shook his head, "Not yet."

"Qiong's wedding is the day after tomorrow. Hasn't she sent me a letter yet?"

Butler Luo thought for a moment and asked, "How about I go and ask?"

Luo Jiashu frowned, "Go ahead."

"Dad, why do we have to invite that Madam Yuan? Everyone knows that the owner of Yongxing Street is a..."

"Shut up." Luo Jiashu glared at his eldest son Luo Zicheng, saying that he was so stupid and he didn't know who he took after.

"No matter who she is, it's not your place to discuss as a man. Be aware of your status."

Then he looked at his daughter-in-law and said, "I heard that the one hundred acres of sweet potatoes on the farm outside the city are very easy to grow. One hundred kilograms of sweet potatoes can be planted on one hundred acres of land."

"As long as there are vines, we can plant them. This crop has low cost. No matter how high the yield is, as long as we can plant all the land on the farm, it will definitely allow our family to survive this winter."

"If Madam Yuan can come to the wedding banquet, you must entertain her well and find out if there are any seeds or vines left for the crop called sweet potato."

"Food is scarce now. If we don't find a solution, we will all go hungry."

Just as Shan was about to stand up and salute, Luo Zicheng called out, "Dad, we survived two years of famine, and now everything is fine. How come we have no food to eat?"

Shan lowered her eyes expressionlessly.

Luo Jiashu's face darkened, and he glared at him and scolded, "You don't know anything. What do you do every day?"

"Great! Where is the great news?"

"You also know that it was a two-year famine. What did you eat during those two years?"

"It's only been a short time, how come it's already so good? Where did it come from?"

"Food is being consumed but not grown. Where is the food to eat?"

"You useless thing, get out of here."

Luo Zicheng curled his lips, glared at Shan, then stood up and left.

Luo Jiashu took a deep breath and looked at Shan and said, "Old Master's wife, you must keep a close eye on Yu'er. Don't let him learn from his father. After a hundred years, the Luo family will be handed over to him."

"Yes, father." Shan stood up and saluted.

"I will remember what you told me."

Luo Jiashu nodded and said, "Okay, go and take care of Qiong'er's wedding first."

Shan bowed and walked out.

Luo Jiashu couldn't help but feel a headache when he thought about how useless his eldest son was.

The second and third sons were both working in Kyoto. Although they occasionally sent some things back, they were all living in a time of famine and had their own families to take care of, so they could give very little.

Nowadays, everyone is trying to protect themselves, and few families have extra grain to sell.

No matter how good the relationship is, you have to take care of yourself first.

When I thought of the eldest son of the Hu family in Xiaocheng, I suddenly felt a lot more relieved in comparison.

At least his son is a little stupid, but not to that extent.

Just as he comforted his aging heart, Butler Luo ran in, "Master, the Yuan family has replied. Madam Yuan will come to attend. The gifts have been sent."

Luo Jiashu stood up happily and said, "Okay, go tell the Madam."

Luo Xingqiong's wedding day.

As soon as Yuan Man got off the carriage, he was treated with high standards. Mrs. Luo, Shan, actually came to greet him in person, which made many people look sideways.

Lian Yuanman was also confused and followed Shan into the Luo Mansion.

When did her status become so high?

When Shan saw Yuan Man's expression, she knew that he was not a cunning person. "Madam Yuan, please come this way."

As soon as Yuan Man sat down, someone came over to greet her, "Mrs. Yuan."

Yuanman looked at the person who came and confirmed that he didn't know him.

"you are?"

"I am Xu, the second daughter-in-law of the Zheng family. I met you last time when you attended Madam Gu's birthday banquet." Xu said with a smile.

Yuan Man: “…”

"Oh, Hello."

She confirmed that she had no impression of her, but she knew Madam Zheng, and Madam Gu specifically introduced her.

Madam Xu sat down beside her, looked around, and asked in a low voice: "Madam Yuan, do you have a farm outside the city?"

Yuanman looked at her without saying anything.

Who owns the manor? Anyone who has the ability to check the official records will naturally know.

But she didn't say her name, so how could she be sure that the farm was hers?

Is it because they have the same surname, Yuan?

She actually guessed it right, because the house she lived in belonged to Yuanman, and the farm also belonged to Yuanman, so they were guessing whether it was hers.

Even if it wasn't hers, she was still related to him, after all, she lived in that house.

Seeing that she was looking at her without saying anything, Madam Xu immediately said, "It's like this. The crops you've just planted on your farm are growing very well. Do you have any seeds left?"

Yuan Man heard her words and knew her purpose. He shook his head and said, "Madam Zheng, that manor is not under my control."

"But I was the one who found the sweet potato seeds."

"I found them while fleeing famine. There are only a few of them. I heard they have all been planted."

"I don't know what the yield of sweet potatoes is."

The light in Mrs. Xu's eyes immediately faded. "That's such a pity."

"I heard that sweet potatoes are planted by seedlings. Can't the seedlings be divided?"

Her words reminded Yuanman that as long as the mother potatoes were not dug out, they could still continue to sprout.

"I don't know about that. After all, it's not my responsibility."

"However, when the harvest is done, Zhuangzi will send some to me first, and then I will share with you, okay?"

"Okay." That's all I can do.

Yuanman thought about what she had just said and decided that he had to go to the farm. If there were still seedlings, he would plant another hundred acres.

Inserting it later will at most affect the output, but it is better than having nothing.

It's just June now, so it's not too late to plant the seedlings if there are any.

At this time, Mrs. Shan, the eldest wife of Luo, came over, glanced at Mrs. Zheng and said with a smile: "Madam Yuan, I wonder when the sweet potatoes will be harvested. If there are any surpluses, our Luo family would like to buy some from you."

Yuan Man saw that she was stunned for a moment, "I don't know about this, I need to send someone to the farm to ask."

"No matter what the result is tomorrow, I will send someone to say goodbye to you."

"Thank you very much, Madam Yuan." Mrs. Shan and Mrs. Zheng thanked in unison.

After all, today was the day that the Luo family was marrying off their daughter, so one could imagine how busy Shan was. Naturally, she left without staying in front of her for long.

Madam Zheng pulled her aside and continued to ask, "I wonder if Madam Yuan has any other seeds. I'll buy them no matter what crops they are from."

Yuan Man glanced at the backpack, shook his head and said with a smile: "Madam Zheng, you are joking. Your noble families don't have any seeds, so how can a commoner like me have any?"

"I was just lucky to find the sweet potato."
