Yu Qingqing was a professional woman from a modern, high-tech developed era who transmigrated to a fictional ancient era. On her way back from a business trip, she encountered a landslide and was t...
A person who was close to the crowd soon saw the big sweet potato in Yu Qingshu's hand.
Village Chief Liu was instantly happy when he saw this. "Brother Yu, I really misunderstood you just now. You are a blessing to our village. This is really great!"
Everyone should listen to Brother Yu from now on. Remember that it was Brother Yu who told us this generously and selflessly. It is okay if others don’t say it.
"From now on, when you eat other people's food, please stop saying those nonsense. If anyone is dissatisfied and goes out and says something nonsense, then you should not be involved in these things anymore. Everyone, do you understand?"
"I heard it clearly, Village Chief, let's dig quickly. We feel full of strength.
"Sorry, Mr. Yu, we're the ones who spoke without restraint." Everyone said in unison, eager to dig sweet potatoes immediately.
Yu Qingshu nodded slightly and didn't bother with them.
Soon everyone divided the work and cooperated with each other. Some people dug the sweet potatoes, some people cleaned the sweet potato vines, and others were responsible for packing the sweet potatoes.
Seeing that the matter was over, Yu Qingqing pulled her father and pointed to the loosened soil not far away, "Dad, look over there. If someone goes over there later, stop them.
I've planted potatoes there, and we'll be able to come over and dig them up after a while. You have to keep an eye on them and make sure they don't dig them up."
Yu Qingshu looked carefully at the place his daughter pointed to, and there were indeed traces of new digging there.
Yu Qingshu smiled with satisfaction and said, "My daughter is really smart. She can think of this. Don't worry, Dad will be careful. It's so sunny, go back quickly. Don't get tanned again. Your father and mother will be worried."
Yu Qingshu pushed Yu Qingshu back and asked her to go back quickly.
Then Yu Qingshu came to the sweet potato field, and everyone was working hard.
Village Chief Liu picked up a muddy sweet potato and said happily: "Qingshu, you really found a great treasure. Look at this sweet potato, it's big and round, and each one weighs about one kilogram.
There are over ten sweet potatoes on this vine! That's a truly incredible yield! You're absolutely right. This really can't be leaked outside, or else it could be fatal."
Village chief Liu's face was wrinkled with laughter. They could eat so many sweet potatoes for a long time, and finally they wouldn't have to starve to death anymore.
Yu Qingshu smiled shyly, "Yes, Village Chief Liu, we can save the sweet potatoes for seeds, and we can plant them ourselves next year.
And the vines are edible when they are young, and now that they are old, they can be used to feed pigs, chickens, and ducks."
Yu Qingshu repeated what his daughter had said to Village Chief Liu.
When Village Chief Liu heard that the sweet potato was truly a treasure, he realized that even the vines were edible.
"Okay! Okay! Okay! So do we eat this sweet potato raw? Or are there any other ways to eat it?" Village chief Liu was curious about how to eat sweet potatoes. He felt that really good things would definitely taste good.
Yu Qingshu then slapped his forehead and said, "Ouch! After talking so much, I really forgot to tell you how to eat it. This sweet potato can be boiled or roasted. It's really convenient and delicious."
After Yu Qingshu finished speaking, he chuckled to cover up the embarrassment just now.
Seeing the sweet potatoes piled up like a small mountain, everyone smiled heartily. It was like a good harvest, and everyone felt extremely happy.
Although everyone had just recently harvested the crops in the fields, the feeling at this moment was different.
The group was tired but reluctant to rest. There were so many sweet potatoes here. They just wanted to work harder so they could dig more to take home.
After digging for about two hours, everyone was so tired that they lay down and were too lazy to lift a finger. Only then did Yu Qingshu stop them.
Yu Qingshu was also leaning against a tree, panting and saying: "Everyone, listen to me, many of the sweet potatoes here are from our village.
However, we cannot neglect our health and still need to take adequate rest. I also want to tell everyone that after we return, we will divide the food equally according to the number of people, which is fair.
Also, everyone knows that the restaurant in town has a cooperation with our family. We may give a part of it to the restaurant as seeds later, so I want to tell you in advance.
We've already dug up about 20,000 kilograms, and everyone here can get a good share. We can now start shipping it home."
When everyone heard that they could share the food, joy filled their faces.
The sweet potatoes here were discovered by the Yu family, so everyone agreed with his idea of giving them to the restaurant.
After a short rest, the group began to move home one after another. They all decided to move to Yu's house first and then divide the sweet potatoes.
Everyone brought back the broken sweet potatoes. The Yu family's yard was packed with people, and there were also a lot of things placed outside.
According to Village Chief Liu, there were really a lot of sweet potatoes, so he divided them into 100 kilograms per person. Everyone said there was no problem.
A person with good physical strength can carry 100 kilograms back home in one go, while a person with poor physical strength needs to run twice.
Although the family members who were digging sweet potatoes were very curious, they did not ask any more questions after being warned by their families.
Instead, they made too much noise and soon attracted other people's attention.
"Village Chief Liu, what are you doing? What is this thing covered in mud?" The old widow in the village asked curiously, her little eyes rolling around.
Village chief Liu didn't say anything to her, but asked her to stand aside.
The old widow thought she was asked to queue up to get sweet potatoes, so she followed her to queue up.
"Isn't Village Chief Liu an old widow? Why is she queuing here?" One of the young men recognized the old widow in the crowd at a glance.
Village Chief Liu saw that the old widow's chest was heaving with anger. "Why are you standing there? I told you to go away. You have no right to anything here. You can leave now."
The son of the old widow was the one who had made a fuss and left earlier.
But after returning, he was unwilling to give up, so he ordered his mother to come out and check the situation. Only the old widow knew that she had been squatting at Yu's house for several hours. Finally, she stared at the mosquito bites on her face and saw Village Chief Liu and his men.
The old widow pretended not to hear, turned her head and continued to stand there shamelessly.
Village chief Liu found two young men and pulled her out directly, but she started to act like a demon.
"God damn it, you guys, let me go! Why are you holding me? Let go! Ouch, my back is sprained, it's killing me!"
