"Thank you, village chief."
Wang Jinhe watched the village chief happily leave, turned around and looked at Su Yu beside him, couldn't help but smiled and said: "It seems that the village chief wants to help our family promote it after he returns."
Judging from the village chief's emotional expression, Wang Jinhe knew what he was going to do after just a moment's thought.
Su Yu crossed her arms and calmly watched the village chief's back as he left, with a smile in her eyes: "This is good. After knowing our current strength, those people will not be so self-righteous as to provoke us."
"You are right."
It was the busy farming season, so Xie Kui was in no hurry to discuss the matter, but went back to talk to Rong.
After hearing this, Rong was surprised and delighted: "Really? Xiaohe is so amazing that she can win the favor of the emperor. Now these people in the village will not dare to say anything anymore."
The village chief nodded in agreement: "You are right, but we need to find a way to let the villagers know. They used to look down on the Wang family, but now? They can't even reach the Wang family."
"That's right. As for spreading the news, leave it to me. I'll go find Liang. They have harvested the rice, which is now drying in the field. I'll go chat with her." Rong knew what to do after a quick thought.
"Okay then. I'll trouble you, ma'am." The village chief was naturally very happy to have his wife help him.
When Rong went to the field, she not only found Liang, but also many women chatting there.
Rong ignored those people and sat next to Liang to chat with her.
As they chatted, Rong said mysteriously, "Sister, you don't know yet, right? Xiaohe's family was rewarded with 100 acres of land by the emperor."
Liang was shocked when she heard this and asked quickly, "Sister-in-law, what's going on? Is this a misunderstanding?"
"How can it be a misunderstanding? Didn't my husband go to see Dagui today? As soon as I entered the house, I saw the imperial edict displayed in the main hall. After asking, I learned that the thresher made by Xiaohe was favored by the emperor. The emperor rewarded her with a hundred acres of land. With this hundred acres of land plus the land Xiaohe's family bought before, their family is now a landlord." Rong said enviously.
Seeing Rong's expression, Liang had no choice but to understand that her sister-in-law wanted to build momentum for Xiaohe's family and let people know that Xiaohe was not someone they could scold just because they wanted to.

When the people around heard Rong say that Wang Jinhe was rewarded by the emperor, they pricked up their ears, especially Jiang, who was at odds with the Wang family.
"Who knows if it's true." Jiang couldn't help but mutter after listening for a while.
"The imperial edicts are kept in Xiaohe's house. Don't accuse Xiaohe's family of forging the imperial edict. Forging an imperial edict is punishable by death." Rong looked at Jiang with a strange expression.
Jiang was just saying that. Seeing Rong still bullying her like this, she was immediately dissatisfied: "Rong, what do you mean by this? Do I have a grudge against you? You always say this to me."
"I have no grudge against you, I just don't like you." Rong said bluntly, "Some people wish Xiao He would die, but now Xiao He is valued by the emperor and has been rewarded, while those who were dissatisfied with Xiao He have nothing."
"Who said it wasn't? Sister-in-law, do you think these people are stupid? They have been chasing Xiaohe for so many years. I don't know what wrong Xiaohe did in her previous life to be harassed like this. Xiaohe is really pitiful." Liang said with a sigh.
"Seeing that others are living a good life while she herself is not, isn't that jealousy?" Rong said sarcastically.
The reason why Jiang keeps causing trouble for others is because Xiao He is living a good life, and she doesn't want to see Xiao He living that well.
"Shut up! Who doesn't want to see them?" Jiang said angrily.
Rong was not angry when she saw her frustrated look. Instead, she smiled and said, "You know whether there is any or not. There is no need to say more here."
"you… "
"Sister-in-law, I am really grateful to Xiaohe for making such a useful thing today. It has saved us a lot of trouble and a lot of things." Liang was very happy when she thought of this.
"Who says it's not true? Hasn't Xiao He saved us a lot of time over the years?"
What made the Jiang family most angry was that there were such useful things in the village, but their family could not use them at all.
Not to mention not having to spend money, even if he had to spend money he couldn't use it. Wang Jinhe said it directly at the time, no matter who he gave it to, he wouldn't give him any household allowance. Jiang was absolutely annoyed when he thought of this.
"All of you shut up." Jiang said angrily.
"Let's talk about our own things. If you don't want to listen, just leave here. No one is begging you to listen, so shut up. Who do you think you are? We should listen to you?" Liang scolded back rudely: "Oh, I see. It's because we can use Xiaohe's thresher, but your family can't use it, and you are the only one who collects all the grain, so you hold a grudge and want to make trouble for us, right?"
It has to be said that Liang guessed Jiang's thoughts thoroughly.
"you… "
"Some people clearly have the opportunity to use the thresher, but they don't know that they are courting death and letting Xiaohe and others tell them not to use it at home. Do you think you are very angry?" Liang said gloatingly as he looked at Jiang.

She had long disliked Jiang, and now that she was unable to speak out, she was of course happy.
Jiang couldn't win the argument with Liang, so she went back with a gloomy face. When she got home, she felt very unhappy when she thought that there was still so much rice that she had to harvest by herself.
What’s the difference between her having a son and not having a son
During the slack season, he stays at home every day, but during the busy season, not a single ghost can be seen.
No matter how sad Jiang was or how much she wanted to use the thresher, Wang Jinhe didn't know about it. She was recording how much land everyone in the village who wanted to grow melons had to plant, and Su Yu followed her and helped her.
"It looks like we will be able to grow a lot of melons next year." Su Yu looked at the land area, which was about seventy to eighty acres in total.
"It's nothing. If there are more, the price will be a little lower." Wang Jinhe said indifferently.
At ten cents per pound, they can earn dozens or even hundreds of taels of silver next year. This is already a huge income for every family in the village. This would be impossible for other families.
"We'll see when the time comes. But the prices here will definitely not drop. After all, the fruits and vegetables here are very good." Su Yu has already thought about it. The melons grown by other people in the village will be sold at a cheaper price. As for the ones grown by Wang Jinhe himself, the price will definitely be maintained and they will still be sent to Beijing next year.
"Of course. Do you dare to deduct money from me? Be careful or I'll tell Grandpa."
