Chapter 363: Suggestion (2)

Her laugh attracted the gazes of Li Xiao and Lin Xiaoyue at the same time.

Li Xiao didn’t have much of an expression, but Lin Xiaoyue’s face turned red.

At this time, Zhou s.h.i.+ looked at Lin Xiaoyue mischievously.

She thought her sister wasn’t afraid of anyone. She didn’t expect her to be afraid of her husband.

Subconsciously, she thought of her husband.

Her husband was the kind of person who was not afraid of anyone, but he could not do anything to her…

Thinking about it, she decided not to go to the Liu family’s house tonight. She should go home.

Li Xiao pretended not to see Zhou s.h.i.+’s expression and placed the food into Lin Xiaoyue’s bowl.

Then, he signaled Lin Xiaoyue with his eyes to eat quickly.

Lin Xiaoyue was a little annoyed.

As there were a lot of people in the hall, she didn’t want to argue with Li Xiao.

Everyone else was very quiet.

The people at the next table had been paying attention to the main table.

Although there was no movement, they all saw and heard the interaction between their Master and Miss just now.

All of them were a little surprised.

So, the Master’s status was actually so high?

Such a dignified young lady was actually “afraid” of her husband?

Although the Master was a live-in husband, his looks and figure…were intimidating.

Li Xiao still didn’t know that because of this, the three men respected him even more.

The food was not to her taste, so Lin Xiaoyue did not eat too much.

After finis.h.i.+ng a bowl of rice, she placed it to the side.

Zhou s.h.i.+ was also used to eating the Liu family’s food, so she was not interested in the food here. She also put down the bowl.

Li Xiao ate an extra bowl, but he did not add more rice.

He had never been a picky eater, but ever since the eatery at the pier opened, he always went there for lunch.

He ate there three times a day and there was always spicy food.

If he hadn’t come to the Zhou Manor to have this meal, he wouldn’t have realized that he had actually started to become picky.

The people at the secondary table didn’t continue eating.

Fan Ming was still a little worried. He wondered if the dishes were not prepared properly, which was why the young miss had lost her appet.i.te.

Zhao Shanshan, on the other hand, gave him a rea.s.suring look. He also told him that Miss and the others were just not used to the food outside. Only then did he feel at ease.

After this incident, Fan Ming had a better impression of Zhao Shanshan.

He even felt that it would be good if his son married Zhao Shanshan.

After dinner, Lin Xiaoyue asked Fan Ming to take them to the fields to take a look.

Li Xiao even specially instructed Fan Teng to follow him.

Thus, Fan Ming and Fan Teng, the father and son, became the guides.

Regarding the situation in the fields, Fan Teng knew even more than Fan Ming. Therefore, very quickly, Fan Teng replaced Fan Ming and became the person who gave the explanation to everyone.

Seeing this, Lin Xiaoyue’s impression of Fan Teng improved.

“There are many lands in the manor, and they are spread out too widely. It would be quite difficult to irrigate and fertilize.” Lin Xiaoyue said.

Everyone nodded in agreement.

In the past, the land was rented out to the tenant farmers, and the irrigation and fertilization were arranged by the tenant farmers themselves. They did not need to consider these things at all.

But now, the lands were no longer rented out. Instead, they would hire workers to work on them.

She had to think of a way to make it more efficient.

“Why don’t we divide these lands into regions? Then, each area would have a pond and a manure pit.”

“When it rains, the water will be led to the pond to be stored. Then, when the land needs irrigation, the water can be taken from the pond.”

“As for the manure pit, the manure from the pigsty and chicken farm will be sent to the manure pit regularly so that we don’t have to go to the latrine in the manor to get it.”

The manure from the pigsty and chicken farm was dry, so it was convenient to transport it.

When the fields needed to be fertilized, they could use a manure bucket to take some dry manure and then mix it with water to fertilize the crops.

If they didn’t do this, they would have to get it from the manor.

The manure from there was wet, and it would be too difficult to carry it to the fields.

That’s what she learnt in her grandmother’s house when she was young.

Some fields were far from their homes, so farmers came up with the idea of building ponds and manure pits in the fields.

Using this method could save a lot of effort and time..
