Ms. Yan simply assumed that her in-laws agreed with what she said.

She felt so stressed living with them. If they could live separately, that would be great, even if it meant that she and her husband must support the parents.

At the first section of the family, everyone was eating lunch in a cheerful atmosphere. Yuezheng Xiao suddenly patted his forehead, exclaiming that he had forgotten something. He asked Qu Shan and the coachman to fetch it from the wagon.

This bundle contained the stems of some kind of plant. It was less than 1.5 meters long, a little thicker than the thumb, and a small bundle of about forty or fifty stems.

It was so big that it was placed under the wagon, which Yuezheng Xiao could not remember when he was carrying the other things out.

Everyone was curious about what was carried in.

But Qiao Xuan’s eyes sparkled and she cried in surprise. “It is cassava! Oh Young Master Yuezheng, you have really got me cassavas. How wonderful! Thank you so much!”

The others were very curious. What were cassavas?

Shao Sanlang and his wife lost interest immediately. This did not look like food.

Qiao Xuan cherished the bundle and smiled. “It is a precious thing. It can grow anywhere, just like taros, easy to grow in the soil. After we dig it out, we can remove the skin, bleach it, steam, boil and bake it, and then eat it. Otherwise, we can also mash it to extract starch, which can be used to make various pastries… it is a precious thing!’

More importantly, with cassavas available, she could open dessert stores in the near future. The flour could be used to make taro balls and even milk-tea with small balls.

“That is all food!”

“So amazing, it should be tasty!’

Everyone was pleasantly surprised and interested after hearing the explanation.

Yuezheng Xiao smiled. “I wrote a letter to my Elder Brother about this and he inquired about these foreign seeds. So the seeds were found! They said that the plant would live once it touched the soil. Not sure if that is true!” Qiao Xuan smiled. “l have never tried that before, but I believe it.”

She had no idea how to plant it, but she could ask the space for help.

It was cut into sections of two or three inches long with an oblique knife edge, as long as there were bud bags and cuttings on each section, it could stay alive.

The stalks appeared to be dormant currently, but still alive. It could not be kept for too long. If the buds were still for too long, it would simply become a bundle of dry firewood.

So, Qiao Xuan asked Shao Sanlang to store the bunch in the cellar, and decided to find a corner place to plant in the garden.

After this, she was going to buy hundreds of mu of fields, even slopes, for next year’s planting.

It also depended on the dessert stores’ requirements. So, 40 mu should be enough for the next year and more could be planted in the future.

Qiao Xuan was not very assured to plant this in the Zhang Village.

New things were always very interesting for villagers to see. She could watch over it if the plants were here, but not in the Zhang Village.

For example, if she wanted to expand the scale of snow fungus, then she would need to build a huge house in the village or close to the village and enclose the plants, so that no one could steal them.

Everyone became really interested in this new item. As a result, in the afternoon, Qiao Xuan, Taotao and Yang Xiaoni made jelly with brown sugar water..
