Chapter 202: Why Are You Being Polite With Dad?

He Xiner nodded on her back.

"So that's it. Is wheat more expensive than corn? Can I exchange it for more silver?"

"The yield of wheat is lower than that of corn. When the year is good, one acre of land weighs 400 jins, which is considered good. But when the year is bad, one acre of land only weighs 200 jins."

"The harvest is so low?"

"Who says otherwise? After harvesting new wheat, you have to pay grain tax, and there won't be much left. So few farmers are willing to eat white flour."

"Oh, farming is so hard, and so is dad."

"Haha, my daughter has grown up"

Mrs. Wang walked behind the two men, smiling and listening to the conversation between the two men, with a gentle look on her face.

"By the way, Dad, I changed my name, do I have to change it in my household registration too?"

"Xin'er didn't tell me, but dad didn't think of it. He has to change his ways. When the wheat is planted and there is enough time, dad will go find Li Zheng and ask."

"Would it be troublesome?"

"No, let's wait and see for reasons. The girl is not involved in the land, so she should be able to change easily."

"Oh, I'm causing trouble for dad."

"Haha, why are you being polite to dad?"

"Dad, why don't our family grow sweet potatoes? Aren't sweet potatoes highly productive?"

"What? Xin'er wants to eat sweet potatoes?"

"Haha, a little bit, I really want to eat roasted sweet potatoes!"

"Haha, I've never seen you enjoy eating before!"

He Xiner touched her nose and felt a little guilty, "Hey, it's all Yuanyuan's fault that she said the roasted sweet potatoes were so delicious that she lured out my gluttony!"

"Well, if you want to eat the sweet potatoes grown by Yuanyuan's family this year, I'll ask them later how many they want."

Haha, I was lucky, but I didn’t expect that Ye Yuanyuan’s family actually grew sweet potatoes.

"That's what I said, you don't have to eat it."

"After harvesting the wheat from our two acres of second-grade fields, we plant beans one year and sweet potatoes the next. They are not valuable things. At worst, we will pay him back a few more sweet potatoes next year."

“Oh, so that’s it”

This is the first time in the years since Mrs. Wang married into Lao Ye's family that she has returned to her parents' home in August. She is inevitably excited, and she only hopes that it will be faster and faster.

She didn't interrupt when the two men were talking, she just listened with a smile, and her steps became more and more brisk.

The sun was warm on her body, and with the slight bumps in her walk, He Xiner soon became so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes. She yawned and couldn't hold it in any longer, so she simply climbed on her father's shoulder and fell asleep.

"Haha, my daughter is asleep"

Ye Laiyin chuckled in a low voice, and happily came to Wang's side and whispered in her ear, "Why do I feel that my daughter becomes more and more like a child sometimes? She gets sleepy when she walks!"

"Well, what I'm saying is, the truth is that I want a child."

"My temperament is the same as when I was a child, very active and playful."

“Who said I won’t come?”

“As long as the children are happy”

The two looked at each other and smiled.

Arriving at the entrance of Wangjiazhuang Village, Mrs. Wang woke up He Xiner: "Xin'er, wake up."

He Xiner was sleeping soundly. When she heard the call, she frowned first, then rubbed her eyes reluctantly, then yawned again, and then slowly opened her eyes.

Huh? Where is this? He Xiner was a little confused.

"Haha, we've arrived at your grandma's village. Come down quickly."

Looking at the confused He Xiner, Wang pursed her lips and smiled softly.

Oh, by the way, I was going to visit relatives. Why did I fall asleep just now?

"Dad, let me down."

"okay"

Ye Laiyin happily knelt down and put He Xiner down.

"Let's go"

"Um"

He Xiner slowed down her pace again and followed the two of them towards the village.

The village in front of them is also built with a mountain behind them, and I don’t know if this mountain is connected to the mountain behind their village. From a distance, the mountains look similar.

Almost all the houses in the village are made of earth. Most of them have green tile roofs, and a few have thatch roofs.

He Xiner was looking around when Wang in front turned around and said, "We're here, come in quickly."

"Hey, here we come."
