The concubine escaped and cried when she met the prince again

Chapter 438 Shen Ruolan, You Are So Despicable

"Okay, from now on, if Village Master Shen wants something, just tell us in advance and we promise to prepare it for you before you come." Village Chief Wu said.

When Shen Ruolan heard what Village Chief Wu said, her eyebrows moved suddenly, and she asked Village Chief Wu: "Village Chief Wu, how much land do you have in your village?"

Village Chief Wu didn't know why Shen Ruolan asked this, but he still answered seriously: "There are many fields in our village. As for land, each family has about ten acres on average, and the whole village has nearly three hundred acres in total."

When Shen Ruolan heard that there were 300 acres of land, she estimated it in her mind and continued to ask Village Chief Wu: "Village Chief Wu, I want you to help me grow some soybeans. How about I pay you to buy them?"

She now needs a large amount of soybeans, but she can no longer grow them all by herself. If someone from other villages is willing to grow them, then she can plant more peppers, potatoes and other things in the mountains.

As for peppers, potatoes and other things, why haven't they been separated out for planting? Because the time is not ripe yet.

When Village Chief Wu heard Shen Ruolan asking everyone to plant soybeans, he hesitated for a moment and asked her, "Village Master Shen, these soybeans are really unpalatable. Planting so many, can you really buy them all?"

Village chief Wu did not agree immediately because there was another problem, that is, soybeans could not be sold at a high price, so not many people were willing to plant them.

Shen Ruolan assured him: "Yes, the price of soybeans will be the same as grain."

When Village Chief Wu heard that soybeans were priced the same as grain, he instantly became excited.

You know, the per-acre yield of soybeans is much higher than that of grain. If they are purchased at the price of grain, the villagers will earn a lot more every year.

Village Chief Wu responded to Shen Ruolan without hesitation: "Okay, I will gather everyone tomorrow to talk about it, and then ask everyone to plant as many soybeans as possible."

Shen Ruolan nodded to him and instructed Mu Jin, "Mu Jin, go get thirty taels of silver, and also bring out the writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone."

"Yes, ma'am." Mu Jin said, and quickly took out the silver, pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and placed them in place, saying, "Ma'am, everything is ready."

Shen Ruolan walked to the stone table in the yard. She picked up the pen and wrote a soybean planting agreement. She signed her name and handed it to Village Chief Wu, saying, "Uncle Village Chief, this is an agreement on soybean planting. Anyone who participates in soybean planting must put their fingerprints on it. Otherwise, I will not be responsible for any accidents that occur."

After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, she handed him another thirty taels of silver and said, "This is a deposit for everyone. Uncle Village Chief can divide it equally among everyone according to the proportion. When the time comes, we will refund the excess and make up the shortfall."

Although Village Chief Wu agreed verbally, he was still very worried in his heart. When he saw the deposit given by Shen Ruolan, he was completely relieved.

He took the agreement and placed it in front of Shen Ruolan, pressed his handprint on the spot, and promised her: "Master Shen, don't worry, we will all help you grow soybeans."

"Okay, I'll wait for good news from you, the village chief." Shen Ruolan said.

"Hey." After saying this, Village Chief Wu took the agreement and the silver and excitedly said goodbye to Shen Ruolan.

Wu Dahu and Lan Xin also hurriedly followed.

Village Chief Wu walked out of the yard, and then he thought of his grandson's wife. He stopped and said to Shen Ruolan, "Village Master Shen, don't worry, our family will treat Lan Xin well."

The entire Nanfeng Village only knew that the village chief's grandson married a beautiful wife, but they did not know Lan Xin's identity.

So everyone was very curious about Lan Xin's identity, but the Wu family had no intention of explaining.

Because he could tell from Lan Xin's words that the Fifth Miss did not have very deep feelings for her younger sister, and that helping her find a husband was already the most she could do, so he did not want to cause trouble for Shen Ruolan.

After hearing what her father-in-law said, Lan Xin glanced at Shen Ruolan and lowered her head with an uncomfortable look on her face.

She knew that her fifth sister didn't like her, and now she got married with the help of her fifth sister, which made her feel very guilty.

But she had no choice. If she returned to Beijing, her father would definitely marry her off to someone random.

She didn't want to be someone else's concubine anymore, and she didn't want to live a life without dignity.

Shen Ruolan smiled and nodded to Village Chief Wu without saying anything.

At night, after Shen Ruolan had dinner, she helped Xia Hongmiao with acupuncture and said, "Get up early tomorrow and I'll give you acupuncture once before we get on our way."

After hearing what Shen Ruolan said, Xia Hongmiao paused for a moment and responded to her with a "hmm".

Suddenly he thought of something, looked at Shen Ruolan and asked, "Are you looking for an antidote for the blood-clotting poison?"

Shen Ruolan glanced at him and asked instead of answering, "Why, do you know this antidote?"

Xia Hongmiao said: "I know someone who has it."

When Xia Hongmiao said this, he looked at Shen Ruolan and said with a smile: "If you are willing to return all my medical fees to me, I will tell you his whereabouts."

Xia Hongmiao's words made Shen Ruolan silent. After a while, she said to Xia Hongmiao: "Unless the person you know is between Anshui City and Cangling City, otherwise, it's useless."

It’s not that she was reluctant to spend money to buy Jiang Dichen an antidote, but his poison simply couldn’t wait. Instead of wasting time on things that were hard to take, it would be more reliable for her to try it herself.

Xia Hongmiao said: "He is in Anshui City, and he has a ready-made antidote."

Shen Ruolan heard that the person was in Anshui City. She hesitated for a moment and asked Xia Hongmiao, "Are you serious?"

"When have I, Xia Hongmiao, ever lied to anyone?" Xia Hongmiao said to Shen Ruolan with disdain.

Shen Ruolan glanced at him and said, "I have personally experienced your mean behavior several times."

After Shen Ruolan finished speaking, her expression was full of disbelief.

Seeing this, Xia Hongmiao quickly explained to her: "Everything I said is true, but she is now poisoned and a little crazy."

"He is so powerful, how could he be poisoned?" Shen Ruolan was even more unconvinced by Xia Hongmiao's words.

A person who knows how to distinguish herbs will not be easily poisoned, let alone a doctor or someone who knows how to make poisons.

Seeing that Shen Ruolan didn't believe him, Xia Hongmiao asked her again, "My uncle, you know, right?"

Shen Ruolan nodded to him, then suddenly had an idea and asked Xia Hongmiao, "Could it be that the daughter you are talking about is the one your uncle just found?"

Yuan Munging's situation was very similar to what he described, and she could also make poison.

Xia Hongmiao was stunned to see Shen Ruolan had guessed it. He looked at her and cursed, "Shen Ruolan, you are so despicable."

He actually jumped into the pit she had dug and exposed Yuan Munging's identity.

However, what Xia Hongmiao didn't know was that the poison in Yuan Munging was given by Shen Ruolan.

Shen Ruolan heard him scolding her, she stabbed him hard with a needle, and said to him with an unhappy look: "How did I offend you again?"

"You're trying to trick me." Xia Hongmiao grimaced in pain.
