“Madam, let’s go tidy up the yard first. You go check on the crops. I’m worried that there might be snakes, rats, insects or something in the yard since it hasn’t been used for a long time.”
"Alright, Steward Li, I'll leave it to you. I'll have Master Zhao and Sister-in-law Fang accompany me on my tour. If we need any help, we can find people in the nearby villages."
Mu Yi'an left with Sister Fang and Master Zhao, and Butler Li arranged for the others to start working.
Mu Yi'an stood on high ground, looking around. The location of this manor was quite good.
I went to check on the crops first. The wheat was already filling out, and the ears of wheat were quite large.
The dry land is planted with corn, which is already taller than a person and growing very well.
Mu Yi'an grabbed a handful of soil. The soil quality was acceptable; watermelons could be grown there. She wondered if all dry land was like this, or if it was just this particular patch.
The woodlands and mountains over there are quite barren, untended and left to grow freely.
Below the small hill are two adjacent ponds, quite large in area, where fish occasionally leap out of the water.
The wasteland was at the very edge of the village, overgrown with weeds that grew poorly, withered, yellow, and sparse.
Mu Yi'an pulled up a handful of grass, glanced down, and sure enough, it was sandy soil, unsuitable for growing crops.
I walked around the whole village, but I still hadn't seen it all. It was too big, and I was exhausted.
Let's go back first and see how the yard is tidied up?
It's impossible to finish everything at once; prioritize the most important tasks first.
Judging from the situation, it seems that watermelons won't be planted this year, and the corn harvest won't be ready for a while.
Okay, Uncle Li can only come over after the watermelons in the village in the county town are sold out.
With such a large estate, Mu Yi'an needs to think about how to arrange the staff.
No rush. Do things one step at a time, and eat one bite at a time. Haste makes waste.
