Chapter 369: Chapter 369 The Ground Is Almost Overturned

Seeing his bride’s blushing face run out, Yang Ming’s mind quickly grasped what she meant this time.

A slight smile curled at the corner of his mouth, his body recovering swiftly. At this rate, it wouldn’t be many days before they could consummate their marriage. For these few days, he would be content with just holding her and stealing kisses.

Xiaoxiao, who had run out, felt unbearably embarrassed. If her younger brother hadn’t arrived just then, something unthinkable might have really happened.

She patted her cheeks with both hands to calm down and saw her younger brother and the others grabbing shovels, ready to set out.

"Yang Dong, you guys can choose where to dig. Make sure it’s a bit larger and deeper, to bury all that sauerkraut. Oh, and recently some villagers came to till our land, right? If it’s an area that’s been tilled, don’t dig there. Try to find a spot where the soil hasn’t been disturbed."

Xiaoxiao thought it made sense to not disturb the soil that had been so nicely tilled by others.

"Got it," Yang Dong replied and left with their father and brothers.

After sending them off, Xiaoxiao went to the main house and played with the three little ones for a while. Soon it was time to cook. Xiaoxiao and her mother-in-law finished preparing the meal, and after a quick dinner with Yang Ming, they headed out to deliver food to the workers in the fields.

Upon reaching the fields, Xiaoxiao shouted out, "Dad, big brother, second brother, Yang Dong, time to eat!"

Her voice echoed across the boundless fields, clear and loud.

Yang Ming, carrying food, was in such a good mood that he joined in with his wife, calling out, "Time to eat!"

Hearing the two voices calling out, everyone stopped their work and came over to eat.

Xiaoxiao looked at the spot they chose for digging. It was quite far from home. Why didn’t they pick somewhere closer? There was undisturbed soil near the house, too. Wouldn’t it be easier to move the sauerkraut if it were closer?

She asked Yang Dong, a bit puzzled, "Yang Dong, how did you guys pick this spot?"

"Well, I saw this place is lower in terrain, burying the sauerkraut here kind of fills the lowland," Yang Dong casually remarked while eating.

Xiaoxiao listened and thought that made sense. Yang Dong wasn’t as simple-minded as she had thought.

Seeing that everybody was eating and there was nothing urgent, Xiaoxiao pulled her husband aside, "Husband, let’s walk over there."

"Okay."

The two of them strolled across the field, but Xiaoxiao actually wanted to see what those people had turned their land into.

The more she saw, the more excited Xiaoxiao became. Gripping her husband’s arm, she pointed at the ground, "Husband, look quickly."

Yang Ming thought there was something on the ground and really looked where his wife was pointing, but saw nothing.

"Look, they’ve almost finished tilling our land."

"..." So that’s what she was talking about. It seemed like a job well done, and his wife seemed happy, "Yes, they’ve done more than half."

Xiaoxiao had never expected that the rumor would actually bring people to till their land for free.

She had planned to hire people to till the land, but now they could handle the remaining untilled areas themselves, saving a sum of silver.

While she was still feeling pleased, her husband suddenly said, "Let them till for a few more days."

"..."

"In a few days, when they’ve almost finished and indeed find no treasure, they’ll lose heart. Then I’ll spread the news that if anyone dares to mess with our land again, they’ll have to pay us silver."

"..." She felt some sympathy for those people.
