“Yes, you’re right.” Only then did Liu Guixia nod in agreement. To her, it made a lot of sense. “Xiao Yan, when you tend to the weeds, pay attention to Jiang Yue. Don’t just focus on your work and forget about Jiang Yue, understand?”

“I know, I won’t.”

When Xue Yan sat at the table, he asked his mother casually, “By the way, where’s the small shovel that Liu Guixia usually uses to dig wild vegetables?”

“It’s placed together with the other shovels behind the firewood. Why ask?”

“I’m afraid that some weeds might be deeper than they seem. Won’t it still grow if it’s rooted in the soil? When the time comes, we’ll just use a small shovel to shovel it uproot it.”

“Yes, yes, yes, that’s a good idea, but you must be careful. Don’t shovel any corn seedlings. There are no more seedlings at home.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll be careful.”

Jiang Yue was quite impressed when she listened in on the conversation between Xue Yan and Liu Guixia. It was an impressive skill to lie without changing their expressions.

After lunch, Xue Yan took Jiang Yue to find a small shovel. When they found it in a pile of farming tools, Jiang Yue found that the small shovel was similar to the shovel used for making pancakes, which was perfect for planting the seedlings.

Now that they had two of these small shovels, they set out on their agreed plan. Xue Yan held one for himself and Jiang Yue held the other.

The shovel was small, but it was quite handy to hold.

The newly gained land could be used for planting after some tidying up, which meant that the soybeans could be planted this afternoon. Xue Dafu and Xue Erfu had gone to buy a field in the morning, so they did not have time to go to the barren land. They had to go in the afternoon.

Since he was going the same way as Xue Yan and Jiang Yue, he decided to go together with them.

......

Xue Dafu was walking at the front. When he was about to leave the village, he bumped into Wang Sufen.

The sneaky woman looked very mean. When she wasn’t smiling, her eyes were droopy, and there were even-aged spots on her face. She acted as if the whole world owed her. When he laughed, he didn’t feel much better.

When Jiang Yue saw this person, her face immediately turned into one of disgust.

“Dafu, Guixia, are you going to the fields?” Wang Sufen said with great enthusiasm. Her tone and expression even had a hint of flattery.

Ever since their family earned a hundred silver, many people in the village began to treat their family differently.

Liu Guixia and Xue Dafu both knew that she was faking it, but they were from the same village so they were faking the formalities. Furthermore, she was a senior, so they couldn’t ignore her. They smiled and said, “That’s right, we are.”

Xue Erfu still remembered her gossiping behind his back, which was really annoying. He was angry when he saw her, so he walked over directly without a greeting.

Liu Guixia and Xue Dafu were both embarrassed. They knew that she should not be treated like this.

Liu Guixia looked at the vegetable basket on Wang Sufen’s arm and said with a smile, “What about you? Did you come back from the garden?”

Wang Sufen wasn’t happy about Xue Erfu’s reaction, but she still smiled.

“Exactly. I went to the garden to pick some vegetables.

“You have a lot of silver at home, but you’re still working so hard in the fields. It must be hard on you.”

Flattery did not work on the Xue family.

“Aren’t all farmers supposed to be like this?” Liu Guixia laughed. “We still have to work in the fields. There’s still a lot of work to do, so we’ll have to get going first. Let’s chat next time.”
