Lin Wanwan glanced at the officers and saw that they were eating with big mouthfuls. Afraid that they were not eating enough, she asked someone to watch them from the side.
He also asked Aunt Qiu to tidy up the courtyard, arrange for them to stay there, and also boil some more hot water.
After dinner, Lin Wanwan took them to the river.
Eunuch Cao admired the beautiful countryside and couldn't help but sigh: "Yun'an County has mountains and water, and beautiful scenery. No wonder even the former old tutor opened a school here. It's really a place of outstanding people and beautiful scenery!"
Then he saw the water mill at work and hurried forward to watch.
"So that's how it is! So that's how it is! By using the water flow to drive the wood to rotate and move it, it can pound rice and grind things by itself! It's really ingenious! How did you come up with such a powerful thing with your little brain?"
Lin Wanwan told him about her "adventure", which made Eunuch Cao amazed again and again.
"Of course, although there were some adventures, I also tried them out bit by bit on my own. Just like the smaller ones I presented, it was easier to build them first, and then find someone to build them after they succeeded."
"Well, although it was a fortuitous encounter, it was not easy to accomplish it. You are really a good kid, not arrogant or impatient, and you have a kind heart. Although you are a girl, your behavior is more stable than that of ordinary men. Alas, it is not easy!"
"You're too kind. I used to be very naughty, but the villagers took my place as parents and raised me. They were very tolerant of me, so this water mill was able to come into being."
"Well, it's good to be grateful. I hope you can keep doing this and do more good things in the future."
At this point, Lin Wanwan thought of the potatoes in the field and said with a smile, "I met a foreign merchant before and bought a lot of seeds from him. I have never seen this kind of food before. From what he said, one plant can produce about five to ten kilograms of food. If this is true, it is a great thing."
Eunuch Cao's eyes widened in disbelief, "Five to ten kilograms! One plant can produce so much? Is that true?"
"I'm not sure either, but I've already planted them. We'll know in two months. If it's really as he said, I'll plant more next year and save the seeds."
"Then you can ask someone to do it. No! If you can really plant it well, you can tell the county magistrate! Have him return to the capital to report in person!"
"Don't worry, if we can really grow it, we will definitely increase the planting, save more seeds, and promote it."
"Okay, okay! This trip to our house was really not in vain!"
Eunuch Cao said three good things in a row, and his smile has never shrunk since he met Lin Wanwan.
In the evening, Lin Wanwan arranged for them to rest in the courtyard, while she and Sister Yuying continued to work, making more cakes and snacks to prepare for Eunuch Cao and others to eat on the way.
Asking Shen Mo to help write the recipe is a matter of great honor to the family, so Shen Mo readily agreed.
"Okay, wait until the ink is dry... don't touch it yet!"
Lin Wanwan was free and picked up a few of them to take a look, but she found her hands were covered in ink and the recipes were stained...
Shen Mo sighed and could only rewrite it.
After finishing writing, he reminded her: "Don't forget this time, wait until the ink is dry before reading it."
"Okay, I got it! Sit down and take a rest. I'll make you some tea."
Seeing that there was no one around, he asked, "Are these your things?"
Lin Wanwan replied while making tea: "Yes, we have a lot of convenient things, but I just can't make them."
"Today, the village head and the elders are very happy and are considering setting up a daughter household for you."
"Establish a female household?"
Shen Mo explained to her: "To establish a female household, an unmarried woman or a widow whose husband has passed away can be established as a female household. Of course, the former must have certain financial resources and abilities, and must also be recognized and supported by the entire clan. You have all of these. After being established as a female household, you can have your own property and rights. When you get married or find a son-in-law in the future, you don't have to worry about your husband's family occupying your property."
"There are so many benefits to establishing a female household?"
"There are indeed many benefits. I think you can consider it. At least you won't be bullied by your husband's family in the future."
"Then I'll go ask the headman tomorrow. Thank you for telling me!"
"No need to thank me. Even if I didn't tell you, the head of the village would have talked to you in the next few days."
"Anyway, thank you!"
Lin Wanwan looked at him with a smile, and suddenly found that he seemed to have grown taller recently, and... suddenly she saw that there seemed to be bruises on his neck, and the area should be quite large.
She immediately reached out and pulled open his collar, examining it carefully.
Shen Mo was startled by her and quickly pushed her away, angrily saying: "How shameless! Don't you know that there are differences between men and women? If this gets out..."
Lin Wanwan ignored what he said, she just stared at the large bruises on his body and said angrily: "Shen Mo, who bullied you? Is there anyone in your private school who dares to do that? Tell me who it is! I'll take people to find them!"
Shen Mo quickly straightened his clothes and covered it up, "No, I just accidentally fell and got hurt a few days ago."
"Injured from a fall? You were obviously beaten up! Do you think I'm blind? Are you going to tell me or not? If not, I'll go tell your mom and your brother!"
Shen Mo looked at her dimly for a long time before he sighed and explained, "I found a martial arts master and wanted to learn some boxing and kicking skills for self-defense. There will inevitably be bumps when practicing martial arts, so you don't have to worry."
"Really?" Lin Wanwan was still a little worried.
"Really, I don't need to lie to you."
"That's fine. I thought you were bullied. However, it's good to learn some martial arts to protect yourself. The Lin Jiu I bought some time ago knows kung fu. I also asked him to teach Xiaobai and the others recently! He also didn't know how to control his strength. Are all martial artists like this?"
