Going home must mean something's wrong at home; can't it just mean visiting family?
Wan Qiqi smiled awkwardly and said, "There's nothing wrong at home. It's just that I bought a piece of wasteland before the restaurant opened, and my family is taking care of it. I wanted to go back and see how things are now."
Zhu Chengye's eyes flashed with astonishment as he slowly asked, "People would rather work for the wealthy than reclaim wasteland. Why would you want to buy wasteland to reclaim it?"

Wan Qiqi paused and said, "In previous years, I went to Yuzhou and bought some seeds from foreign merchants to see if I could grow anything new."

Zhu Chengye's enthusiasm was hard to refuse.
Wan Qiqi ultimately didn't insist and let Zhu Chengye clean up the mess.
