Neither of them spoke, but judging from their expressions, they really liked and enjoyed the dried sweet potato. For lower class people like them, sweet food was a very luxurious thing, so they reacted positively towards it than ordinary people.

Mo mo Zhang looked at it for a while, but just by looking at the appearance, there was nothing special about it, and it didn’t look as enticing as those exquisite pastries.

But driven by curiosity, she also took two pieces.

Although the reaction was not as great as the two long-term workers, she also showed a liking for it.

Mo mo Zhang, who had just said in her mind that she would not change her attitude towards Wei Ruo for a meal, began to waver because of a bag of dried sweet potatoes.

This eldest young lady seemed really generous to the people who work with her……

The three of them only ate one piece and didn’t eat any more. Firstly, Wei Ruo gave them a sufficient amount of lunch, and they were full. Secondly, they all wanted to bring it home to their family to taste.

After lunch, everyone continued to work, and this time the two long-term workers obviously seemed to be working even harder.

They didn’t slack off before, but they were just following their duties. Now Wei Ruo has given them more motivation to work harder, and their spirits were different.

Not far away, there was another line of people who went out of the south city gate just like Wei Ruo.

Chu Lan’s gaze swept over the desolate south of the city, thinking that everything was as bleak and desolate as he had imagined. He didn’t want to stay there any longer, but he saw a few figures in the middle of the empty wasteland.

“What’s going on there?” Chu Lan asked his subordinate.

“Reporting, this group of people are from Colonel’s Mansion, Wei family. They were saying that they are making an attempt to plant at the wasteland, and if it’s successful, they can lead the people of the city to come here to plant after the war situation improves. 

This matter has already been agreed by County Head Magistrate Qian.” The subordinate who followed him reported to Chu Lan.

As Chu Lan’s subordinate, when Chu Lan visits a place, he would investigate some basic information about the place beforehand.

“People from the Wei family?” Chu Lan was surprised, “When did this Wei family even know how to do such things? It doesn’t seem like something that their family could do.”

Lu Yuhong smiled and said: “Your Highness, it seems that the Wei family has given quite a lot of surprises. Last time it was calligraphy, and this time it’s wasteland cultivation.”

Chu Lan didn’t refute Lu Yuhong’s words, but still kept his eyes on the people of the Wei family who cultivated the wasteland, and asked: “Who is the person in charge over there?”

The subordinate who followed him looked carefully for a while before giving a guess: “It might be the Wei family’s eldest young lady who has just returned to the house.”

“The eldest young lady who just returned to the house?” Chu Lan was a little curious.

“The Wei family said that she was raised in the countryside because of poor health, and she was brought back only recently.” The subordinate replied.

“She has been raised in the countryside, so she is good at farming, right?” Chu Lan asked.

“It is said to be so.” The subordinate replied.

Lu Yuhong smiled and said: “A lady of the Colonel’s Mansion who grew up in the countryside and is proficient in farming, this is like a novel story.”

“Whether she is proficient or not depends on the quality of her plants. It’s not that everyone who can plant on the ground is called proficient.” Chu Lan had a reserved attitude about this matter.

“That’s true, it only counts when you achieve the results. Compared to that, Sibaozhai is more interesting.” Lu Yuhong said.

Although Lu Yuhong was politely declined by the shopkeeper last time, he still remembered Sibaozhai in his heart and always felt that it was a good opportunity to make money.

After stopping briefly, Chu Lan led the crowd towards the direction of Wangyue Mountain, he didn’t give too much attention to this small incident.
