Chapter 685: Reciprocity
“Really? Then I’ll be able to see a tree full of fruits when I come over the year after next.” Xiang Ling ‘er laughed happily.
When Chu Xingjun heard this, she could not help but laugh. “You child, you will be married the year after next. How can you come over so casually?”
“Then I won’t marry anyone.” Xiang Ling’er pouted. “Anyway, there’s nothing good about getting married. I’ll stay at home to accompany my parents. I know how to work. I won’t eat for free.”
“Child, what nonsense are you talking about?” Chu Xingjun did not take it to heart at all and shook her head with a smile.
The topic soon turned to how to transplant the fruit trees.
Ye Muyu explained to them one by one.
Madam Qian listened with a smile and even asked some questions about how to manage the fruit forest. Her family also planted some fruit trees. Basically, she was happy to learn from Ye Muyu and was not afraid of losing out at all.
Seeing that it was getting late, the few of them walked home together.
“Eldest Aunt, I’ll go back and look for books later to see if there’s any way to grow fungus. The climate and land in your place are suitable for growing fungus. If we can develop it, you can have a fixed income every year in the future, and your lives will be much better.”
“Moreover, after the fungus is dried, it’s easy to preserve. In the future, we can sell it to merchants. We don’t have to worry about not being able to sell it.” Ye Muyu smiled.
Chu Xingjun nodded her head vigorously. “Good, good, good. This time, it’s all thanks to Ah Heng’s wife. If you need any help in the future, just come to me. I will definitely not decline.”
“Frust Aunt, just leave some wood ears for me. I’m just afraid that you won’t have enough to sell when the time comes.” Ye Muyu’s eyes curved into crescents.
Xiang Ling’er could not help but ask curiously, “Cousin-in-law, will it really sell so well? Also, you can plant that fungus? Doesn’t it grow by itself on mountains?”
“Wild ones aren’t enough to eat. We have to grow them ourselves.” Ye Muyu explained to her in the most understandable way.
Xiang Ling’er nodded her head in understanding. In the end, she could not help but sigh. “You’re amazing. Are these things all in the books?”
“Some books have it, and some don’t. For example, how to grow rice and wheat. There have been such books for a long time. However, I was greedy, so I found someone to ask the old farmers. Slowly, I accumulated some knowledge about growing vegetables and grains. I wrote it into a book and sold it. At that time, at least the commoners won’t have to worry about starving to death. They can grow more vegetables.”
“Cousin-in-law, you’re amazing…” Xiang Ling’er stared at her pocket.
“Ah Heng’s wife, why would anyone be willing to reveal their abilities?” Chu Xingjun’s aged eyes widened in surprise, and she asked hesitantly.
At this time, being able to farm was also a skill. Basically, no one was willing to tell others how to farm.
That was why there were uneven levels of grain cultivation and production.
Ye Muyu already had an excuse. “My husband sent someone to give us money. We all know a lot of things, so we’re willing to tell you.”
“Ah Heng’s wife, no wonder you can be so rich. It’s what you deserve. This blessing will make you better sooner or later.” Chu Xingjun could not help but praise.
Madam Liu had also heard about this matter from Ye Muyu. When she heard Chu Xingjun say this, she smiled lightly. “Big Sister, don’t praise Ah Yu anymore. She’ll get too proud.”
“You don’t know, but Ah Yu opened a bookstore in the county. So, when these things are written into books, those who have a little money will buy them. Even if they can’t afford it, they can sit in the bookstore and read. The money they have to pay is very little. It’s also to make the bookstore’s business better and better.”
