"Yi'an, let me tell you, I'm planning to try growing some watermelons next year. A while ago, my third uncle brought back a watermelon for my grandparents. It wasn't very big, but it was quite expensive. Apparently, wealthy families in the prefectural city love to eat them, and the supply can't keep up with demand."

Mu Yi'an was surprised that her older brother was so quick-witted; the two of them had the same idea.

“Brother, I also plan to plant some next year. My husband ate some at the teacher’s in the county school and said it was very precious. If we plant some on the dry land at home, it should bring in more income than just growing grain.”

"They're much higher, so they can't be compared. But, Yi'an, why are you suddenly thinking about messing around with the fields?"

Brother Mu was a little puzzled. His younger sister was pampered at home, but she had a very good temper. After getting married, she lived a good life, but she never cared about the affairs of the fields; they were all rented out.

“It wasn’t sudden. Before, the children were young and we couldn’t take care of them. A while ago, my husband brought back a book on agriculture from the bookstore, and I found it quite interesting. As the children grow older, they will need money for their education or whatever they do in the future, so I wanted to have more income.”

"Can you understand the agricultural book? What's in it? Can I borrow it sometime?"

When Brother Mu heard that it was a book about agriculture, he became interested and wanted to take a look as well.

"It's alright, I can understand it. I'll bring it to you when I'm done reading it."

The brother and sister talked about farming, becoming more and more excited as they talked, especially Mu Zichen, who had studied farming methods for so many years. Sometimes, a single sentence from Mu Yi'an would enlighten him.

"Brother-in-law, when did my sister become interested in farming?"

Mu Ziyi was asking his brother-in-law a question. He was going to take the imperial examination for the title of Xiucai next year, and the teacher said he was ready.

“I saw a book on agriculture at a bookstore a while ago and thought it was quite interesting, so I bought it. I didn’t expect your sister to like it even more.”

Jiang Shuyun was also using this method to help the Mu family accept Mu Yi'an's differences.

Mu's mother had a very happy birthday this year. The whole family was there, and she was surrounded by a group of children. With such a large and prosperous family, what could be happier than this!
