I'M THE FARMGIRL YOU CAN'T MESS WITH

Chapter 227: Inspection

Editor: Atlas Studios

When the emissary saw the lively harvest scene in the fields, he was shocked. Before he could react, he saw Qi Haoran and Fan Zijin working in the fields. With a sigh, he said, “I didn’t expect Fourth Young Master and Young Master Fan to be so close to the people.”

Smiling, Qi Xiuyuan said, “Sir, you can’t praise them. They’re very naughty. They’re not here to help, but to cause trouble.” As he spoke, he brought him over and explained, “That’s the Mu family. The children of the Mu family are playmates with them, so they come over to play on the fields from time to time. Sir, why don’t you take a look? I was also a little surprised when I saw the corn for the first time.”

The emissary remembered that he had to report to the Emperor when he returned. If he could describe the growth of the corn, the Emperor would definitely think that he was taking the job seriously, so he readily agreed.

Mu Shi and Fei Bai were cutting the corn with pickaxes and then dividing them into piles. Mu Yangling and the others sat on the ground and broke off the corn. This was much better than digging into the cornfield to break the corn. It was not stuffy and they did not have to stand. Each of them occupied a pile and could chat.

Seeing Qi Xiuyuan bring people over, everyone hurriedly stood up. Mu Shi was about to come over to greet him when he saw Qi Xiuyuan wave his hand and say to everyone, “Go ahead. The messenger is just here to take a look.”

Qi Haoran looked up at the emissary before lowering his head to continue breaking corn. Fan Zijin smiled and stood up to greet the emissary politely before following behind Qi Xiuyuan.

The emissary’s smile faded slightly as he nodded politely at Fan Zijin. When Qi Xiuyuan was not around, he had received a lot of hospitality from Young Master Fan.

The emissary turned around to take a closer look at the corn stalk that was still erected in the ground. To his surprise, he realized that there were two corns on it. He personally went forward to peel them open to take a look. The one at the bottom was relatively large, with large and compact corn kernels. When he broke off one with his fingers and pinched it, the pulp flowed all over his fingers.

Although the one above was smaller, there were also a lot of corn kernels. The emissary looked at the cornfield thoughtfully. No wonder the corn production was so high.

Even if there was only one corn on a corn stalk, considering the size and density, the harvest was indeed quite considerable. However, why didn’t they successfully plant it in the past?

Before he could think further, Qi Xiuyuan said with a smile, “I came back late. If it were 20 days ago, I would definitely treat you to a taste of this boiled corn. It tastes pretty good.”

The emissary clapped his hands and asked, “I heard that corn doesn’t taste good when cooked into porridge.”
