Chapter 288 The Deaf and Blind Villain
Everyone was happy and excited about it.
Gu Zilu said: "This is the first year. If we continue to improve, we may be able to increase production."
At this moment, everyone took a breath of cold air.
A yield of 600 kilograms per acre was already an astronomical figure for ancient people like them, but Gu Zilu asked, can it still increase?
For a moment, everyone's face had various expressions, only Ning Ruolan, Su Jin, and Xie Huaiguang remained calm.
Ning Ruolan and Su Jin had both seen it before, so they knew that the future yield of one acre of land, 600 kilograms, was not much.
As for Xie Huaiguang, he was just a man with a deep mind who never expressed his emotions.
Zhao Jingyu quickly ordered someone to tell his brother that this kind of thing should naturally be told to the emperor as soon as possible. After he gave the order, Ning Ruolan came over.
"The barbecue is ready, everyone can come and eat!"
The Tomahawk steak is ready.
Outside the door, the tenants had already started eating. They didn't need anyone to serve them and could roast the meat themselves. The ancient hierarchy was strict and they couldn't come to Su Jin, but being able to eat the meat was already the greatest blessing.
Therefore, these tenants were grateful and relied on themselves to feed themselves and be self-sufficient.
This year's output from the fields has tripled compared to previous years, which has also made the tenant farmers excited.
You know, the tenants can leave more food than the ordinary people outside. The ordinary people can only leave 20%, but they can leave half, and half is 300 kilograms!
So many, so many!
If calculated based on previous harvests, it would mean that they got 100 kilograms more grain than what they got from an entire acre of land!
How can I not be excited?
I'm so excited.
"The boss is such a good person!"
The tenants all praised Su Jin.
"Yes, the increase in grain harvest this year is all thanks to the boss's approval. Otherwise, how could we get so much grain for nothing?"
"That's right. Working on the farm is our duty. The owner even treats us to meat. I haven't tasted meat for many years!"
"Daddy, meat, the meat is delicious!"
The children ate happily and shouted excitedly. The old people bit the meat and smiled so hard that their teeth showed. Su Jin's farm became completely lively and everything seemed so happy and prosperous.
Outside, a carriage passed by quietly. Sun Yuan, who was in the carriage, heard the noise coming from this side, so she stopped the carriage, lifted the curtain and looked over here.
"Whose farm is this? Why is it so lively?"
Sun Yuan didn't know who owned this farm. She went to the marquis's farm today to check it out and teach a lesson to those farm leaders who deceived their superiors and subordinates. Whoever wanted to come back would hear the commotion here.
Normally, you won’t hear such laughter and joy in a farm.
The driver replied, "This is Miss Su Liu's farm."
The driver had taken Gu Sui Yu to the farm before, so he knew it very well.
Miss Su Liu?
Sun Yuan was stunned for a moment. Isn’t that Su Jin?
The ex-wife of her master, who was already the eldest lady of the Marquis' Mansion and the future lady of the Marquis' Mansion, insisted on divorcing at the Banquet of Honor and Respect. This matter caused a big fuss, and Sun Yuan knew about it. She even knew that people in the market were saying that Su Jin was stupid, for giving up her good position as the eldest lady of the Marquis' Mansion and insisting on divorcing to become an ordinary citizen.
However, Sun Yuan, who had figured out the ins and outs of the Marquis' Mansion, now understood Su Jin a little, but only a little. After all, the Marquis' Mansion was a bottomless pit, and she had to spend both money and effort. If it weren't for the status of the Marquis' Mansion, she would not have put in so much effort.
I don’t know if Su Jin left because of this.
Sun Yuan sighed and was about to say let's go when she saw a number of carriages parked outside Su Jin's manor. One of the carriages was particularly eye-catching because it was really gorgeous and decorated with gold, silver and jade. At just one glance, Sun Yuan immediately understood that it was a carriage belonging to a royal family member, and their status was extremely noble.
Sun Yuan was even more shocked and couldn't help but look at Su Jin's mansion a few more times.
She could vaguely see the tenants happily barbecuing and eating together, but everything inside was blocked by a yard and she could not see anything at all.
Sun Yuan asked in a deep voice: "Which nobleman does that carriage belong to? Do you recognize him?"
The driver took a look and shook his head: "I can't tell, but there are only two nobles who are close to the Sixth Miss. One is the Grand Princess and the other is Prince Rui. The Grand Princess basically never leaves the city, so this car must belong to Prince Rui."
Zhao Yingqiao would not leave the city unless it was necessary, but Zhao Jingyu would not do that either. When he had nothing to do, he would even go out of the city to hunt, so it was very likely that the car belonged to Prince Rui.
Prince Rui?
Sun Yuan was shocked.
She couldn't describe how she felt. Anyway, she felt a little unhappy, but she couldn't tell what exactly she felt unhappy about. If she had to say something, it was probably because Su Jin didn't care about the position of the eldest lady of the Marquis' Mansion because she had made friends with people who were more powerful than the Marquis' Mansion, such as Prince Rui.
"Sixth Miss, you are so lucky."
Sun Yuan lowered the curtain and then said, "Let's go."
The carriage drove away slowly, but she couldn't help looking back frequently.
She had been in the Marquis' Mansion for so long, but had never seen the three legitimate sons. The only ones she had seen were the illegitimate sons. However, those illegitimate sons were not close to her, but she could often hear them mention their mother.
There is only one person who is the mother of the brothers and sisters in the Marquis' Mansion, and that is Su Jin.
Sun Yuan was a little confused again. If Su Jin was really not a good person, why didn't the three legitimate sons want to live in the mansion? And why didn't the old lady and Gu Changqing care?
What Sun Yuan didn't know was that the old lady wanted to use the children as an excuse to have Su Jin come back home more often, while Gu Changqing felt that Su Jin was still the mother of three children and it was only natural for them to live together.
Besides, these three children all have the surname Gu, not Su. If Su Jin is good to the children, won’t he be the one who benefits?
While Gu Changqing was making up his mind, he was actually still thinking about Su Jin.
Human beings are such strange animals. What we cannot get is the best, and what we lose is what we miss forever.
Su Jin is now the best and the one that Gu Changqing cares about.
After Sun Yuan returned to the Marquis' Mansion and had some intimate time with Gu Changqing, she told him about this matter.
"Master, Prince Rui went to Sixth Miss's farm today. I passed by and saw that it was very lively inside. The tenants were still eating roasted meat."
Prince Rui?
Gu Changqing didn't care at all and explained, "Jin'er has business dealings with the imperial court. It was Prince Rui who arranged the connection. They are just cooperating with each other."
Will Prince Rui like Su Jin?
Ha, you can tell it’s impossible just by thinking with your toes.
Who is Prince Rui?
As the emperor's younger brother, if we have to rank single men, Zhao Jingyu is the best single man in the entire Zhou Dynasty and the dream lover of millions of girls. What is Su Jin's identity?
Not to mention whether the Hexi Su family is qualified to marry into the royal family, just the fact that she is a divorced woman, Su Jin is not even qualified!
Gu Changqing was not worried at all, and even said shamelessly: "Su Jin is a divorced woman, and no one would look down on her except those who are deaf and blind."
Yes, that’s right, Xie Huaiguang is that deaf and blind villain!
