Perhaps noticing his abnormality, Shen Lihui held his hand. Some things cannot be said. She has experienced too much in the apocalypse, so she will not use this space to test people's hearts.
The human heart cannot withstand temptation, even if this person is the one who will accompany her for the rest of her life.
With strength in numbers, they quickly harvested the potatoes and corn from half an acre of land. They put them all in baskets, covered them with something, and carried them back to the Shen family at the foot of the mountain.
The yard was filled with baskets filled with corn and potatoes, and everyone could only stand under the eaves or on a path in the middle that was left for traffic only.
"Let's get started."
As soon as Pei Yu said this, everyone started to get busy, some were lifting, some were weighing, some were bagging, all in a busy and orderly manner.
Everyone held their breath and waited for the final number.
Tianqing looked at the weight calculated in the notebook and was also very excited. His face turned red and he said in a loud voice: "The total weight of potatoes is 723 kilograms, and the total weight of corn is 852 kilograms."
Chen Li nodded. It wasn't very good, but it wasn't bad either. After all, the varieties were different, so she couldn't expect the same high yield as in her previous life. However, the number of potatoes was much higher than what she had brought out herself.
"good."
Although Pei Yu was excited, he also controlled his rationality and did not do anything strange.
Than I am in the yard now, a group of people are always holding potatoes and corns, looking at them again and again, and they can't wait to pounce on them and kiss them.
"Ayu, this corn is still wet. After the moisture is dried out, the weight will decrease."
"Well, that's not a small amount. At least it's much higher than the current grain production."
Pei Yu looked at Chen Li, his eyes gleaming as he said word by word, “Besides, this is only the yield of half an acre of land.”
"Um."
It was rare to see him so happy, and Chen Li was also happy that her boasting was not in vain.
Lu Jing was also very happy, and the smile on his face never faded. He didn't expect that the output was even higher than Ali said. He would have to manage it well in the future.
However, he could roughly guess that the prices of these two kinds of grains would not be too high.
This kind of high-yield grain is for the common people below, and the emperor and Prince Jingnan will not set the price too high.
After all, these two things are mainly to improve the lives of the poor, not to make money for the rich.
Pei Yu looked at the food in the yard and was very satisfied. "Tianqing, keep these properly. The corn needs to be dried for easy storage. We will transport them back together when we return to the capital."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Pei Yu looked at the people who had been busy in the yard for half a day. He was happy today and waved his hand, "Go and order a few tables for the banquet. I'll treat everyone to dinner today."
Shen Changshan did not refuse. It was not easy for him to throw cold water on his future son-in-law who wanted to treat them. Besides, he was not the only one inviting them, but also the guards who had helped him just now.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Chen Li stopped Tian Qing and said to the man beside her, "Ayu, the weather is cold now. The food is already cold after we brought it back from far away. We can't eat it. Why don't we invite the chef back or go to the restaurant to eat."
Pei Yu looked at the people in the yard. Indeed, he had not considered it carefully just now.
"Then let's do as Ali said, invite the cook back, and bring some good wine."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
At three quarters past the hour of You, the chef brought back by Tianqing prepared five tables of banquets. Chen Li and Pei Yu sat at one table and had their meal in the courtyard where Pei Yu lived.
At this time, the sun is about to set, and the afterglow of the sun shines into the house, making it warm and bright.
Pei Yu picked up the wine jug and poured a glass of wine for Chen Li, and then poured another glass for himself.
"Ali, let me toast you."
Seeing his normal attitude, Shen Li also raised her glass, "Ayu, there's no need for us two to be so polite."
Pei Yu shook his head. "If it were just for me, I wouldn't be polite with you, but this glass of wine is to thank you on behalf of the poor people of Northern Yan. These two kinds of grain will bring huge changes to their lives. All of this is brought by you."
After he finished speaking, he drank a glass, and then drank another glass and three glasses in a row. He raised the last glass with Chen Li.
After hearing what he said, Chen Li calmly accepted his toast.
There wasn't much food on the table, and the two of them couldn't eat much, so the excess was distributed to other tables.
They kept eating and drinking until the moon was at its highest point in the sky, and then they stopped. They had drunk quite a bit of wine, and Chen Li already felt half drunk.
Lin Cuicui was worried, so when she came over and saw them, they were still drinking. After persuading them a few times, they stopped drinking.
Holding Chen Li and looking at Pei Yu who was acting so properly, Lin Cuicui always felt that he was a little drunk and was not very reassured.
"Zi'an, please sit here for a while. I'll get someone to watch over you."
Pei Yu shook his head, "Aunt, there's no need to call anyone over. I'll be watched over during my summer vacation."
Lin Cuicui nodded, "Okay, I'll take A Li back first."
"good."
…
Su Heng and Su Zhihui had already agreed in the carriage that they would talk to their parents when they got home. However, when they got back, they found that Su's father was not there. He had gone out to handle official business, and only Su's mother was there.
Su Zhihui looked at her eldest brother. She felt that this was a better time. If they could convince their mother, it would be easy for the three of them to go together and convince their father.
Su Heng saw through her inner thoughts at a glance and gave her a look, telling her not to be impulsive.
Su's mother was leaning back in the chair, watching the exchange of glances between the brother and sister, and she knew that they were hiding something from her.
Recently, her youngest daughter's marriage has been giving her a headache. She has been in a bad mood and looks a little listless.
However, it was rare to see siblings hiding something from her, so she spoke up anyway.
"Heng, where did you take your sister today? Tell me, what are you two hiding from me?"
Su Zhihui looked at her elder brother and saw that he was still reluctant to speak, so she closed her eyes, gritted her teeth and said something.
"Mother, my daughter has found someone she loves and wants to marry. I hope you will agree to this."
Su's mother originally thought it was not a big deal, but she didn't expect her daughter to spread such a piece of news, which made her feel completely devastated.
It's no wonder she was so surprised. Her daughter, who was always well-behaved outside and lively and active at home, actually had someone she liked.
"What?"
He looked at his eldest son in disbelief, "Is what your sister said true?"
Su Heng closed his eyes. Ah Hui was still too impulsive.
"It's true, mother."
Mother Su couldn't describe her feelings. She felt a little happy, a little worried, and a little sad.
She extended her delicate jade finger and pointed at Su Heng, "So you took your sister to see the person she likes? You also know the person he likes?"
Su Heng lowered his head, not wanting to meet his mother's sharp gaze, nor to meet his gaze. "Yes, that man is my son's classmate."
Mother Su looked at her younger daughter who was standing restlessly beside her and her elegant and handsome elder son. The two brothers were braver than each other.
"Tell me, who is the other party?"
