FARM GIRL TURNS EVERYTHING AROUND: SLY HUSBAND, LET'S FARM

Chapter 848: Chapter 848 Distinguished Guest Visit_1

Tong Sanlang “…”

He couldn’t help but raise his hand to rub his face.

That day had finally come.

This little secret that only he and Qiao Xiaomai knew about, could no longer be hidden…

Qiao Xiaomai looked at his face, which spoke volumes, and comforted him with her own tense little face, “It’s okay, he’s just concerned about you.”

Tong Sanlang looked up at the sky, feeling somewhat desolated, “What did you tell him?”

…

“I told him not to interfere, that you and I have a sense of measure,” Qiao Xiaomai said.

Hearing this, Tong Sanlang couldn’t help but walk over and hug her, “It’s so good to have you.”

“It’s great to have you too,” Qiao Xiaomai patted his back, “Hold your head up high, just pretend Dad knows nothing.”

Upon hearing this, Tong Sanlang pursed his lips, knowing that was all he could do!

It was a cloudy day with the wind blowing fiercely. In the afternoon, Tong Sanlang went to find Miao Dali.

If it started to snow and the ground froze, they wouldn’t be able to start construction. He hoped to recruit people from the village to come together and quickly finish the Courtyard for Qiao Changshun and Zhuang Lühe.

Now, Qiao Changshun and Zhuang Lühe were living in the space he and Qiao Xiaomai had occupied, and their Courtyard was still unfinished.

Miao Dali had no objections, as long as the people who came listened to him, everything was negotiable.

So Tong Sanlang rode back to the village on his horse and discussed the matter with Tong Tiehu, casually giving him a hundred taels of broken silver.

The more people, the greater the strength, the next day, more than five hundred people came over in droves.

It was the slack farming season, and the villagers weren’t busy working the fields, so many went to town looking for temporary work.

Now that Qiao Xiaomai was recruiting, anyone who could come did come.

Better to work for Qiao Xiaomai than to go to town; courting favor with her was worth more than a little less silver.

Qiao Xiaomai understood these people’s intentions. Holding a pen, she personally recorded their names.

In the future, she and Tong Sanlang planned to provide the furnace-heating technology for free to the villagers, and decided to pass it on to these people!

The manor bustled with activity, and after three days of hard work, the Courtyard where Qiao Changshun and Zhuang Lühe lived was finished.

With the Courtyard completed and before the snowfall, Qiao Xiaomai had a Guest House built as well.

As for the ponds for raising loaches and snails, those would have to wait until next year.

Having finished the construction of Qiao Changshun and Zhuang Lühe’s Courtyard, Tong Sanlang took up the pen and personally named it: Bamboo Fragrance Residence.

Bamboo, symbolizing “pig,” had recently become Qiao Changshun’s favorite livestock, surpassing even cows and donkeys in his interest.

Now that the Courtyard where Qiao Changshun and Zhuang Lühe lived had a name, the one where he and Qiao Xiaomai lived also needed one. With a grand flourish, Tong Dalang wrote down the name given by Qiao Xiaomai: Mai Yuan.

Mai, as in Qiao Xiaomai.

Although plain and earthy, as long as the meaning was conveyed, it was all that mattered.

Having settled the names and built the heating stove, Zhuang Lühe, Qiao Changshun, Qiao Dami, Qiao Zhaodi, and Qiao Yindi moved into Bamboo Fragrance Residence, while Qiao Xiaomai and Tong Sanlang moved back to Mai Yuan from the Warehouse.

On the day of the move, a distinguished guest arrived at the manor.

Truly a distinguished guest, the son of the Prime Minister, the young proprietor of Zuixian Building: Shen Bai.

Shen Bai, this refined and elegant young noble, had once visited the Qiao Family with Shopkeeper Zhou for the recipe of tofu. Half a year had passed since then, and Shen Bai still maintained his handsome visage, but Qiao Xiaomai was no longer the naive village girl from before.

Shen Bai looked at Qiao Xiaomai with a face full of emotion, “Miss, you are impressive.”

Qiao Xiaomai smiled shyly.

She had a good impression of Shen Bai, who had visited her home with the demeanor of a noble’s son, conversing with her calmly and gently about prices, without any hint of condescension in his words or attitude.
