Lin Qin looked at the sweet potato pancake and asked, “Binglan, what’s that? I’ve never seen such a dish before. It tastes sweet and delicious.’

She enjoyed sweet potatoes, and Shen Qiuhua knew her Godmother loved eating sweet foods. Shen Qiuhua was delighted to see her Godmother enjoying the food.

Su Binglan explained, ‘1 1 made that from sweet potatoes, Grandma.”

“It tastes good, even though I’ve never seen anything like it.” Lin Qin thought Su Binglan had bought the dish and not made it.

Su Binglan smiled, saying, “Grandpa, you can grow these things yourself. Also, the yield is very high, and you can produce several thousand pounds of them with just one acre of land.

“Roasted sweet potatoes taste even better during winter because they warm you up. I’ll make some for you and Grandma tomorrow.”

Everyone was happy when they heard Su Binglan’s words. The family finally understood what delicious meant after eating her food.

However, Shen Gang had just heard something crucial and asked, “Wait, we can produce a few thousand pounds of sweet potatoes with just one acre of land?!”

That number was shocking to him. When the family moved to Blossom Village, they made a living by farming. Therefore, he knew how shocking it was to yield a few thousand pounds of produce with just one acre of land.

Shen Gang was so excited his hands trembled. “Is that true, Binglan?”

“Of course, it is.” Su Binglan nodded. “If you need sweet potato seeds, I’ll bring some over. Then you can plant them in spring.”

Shen Gang and the rest were excited.

“If that’s the case, we can tell Qiuchuan and Madam Ma to quit their jobs and come home,” Shen Gang said.

Shen Zhishan and Jiang Nainai were happy to hear that. Although they thought it was shocking, they did not doubt Su Binglan’s claims. After all, Shen Mohen had already told them how amazing Su Binglan was.

Shen Zhishan believed his cousin was capable. The whole family looked excited as they discussed the sweet potatoes.

After dinner, Su Binglan took the bananas for everyone to eat. They smiled as they ate and chatted. After eating and drinking their fill, Shen Qiuhua and the others stayed for the night.

However, Jiang Nainai and Shen Zhishan could not fall asleep. Shen Zhishan asked his wife softly, “Can’t sleep? Are you feeling unwell?”

Jiang Nainai shook her head. “No, I’m okay. Binglan took my pulse after dinner and told me I had nothing to worry about. I just need to nourish myself better.’

Shen Zishan sighed in relief, saying, “That’s good.”

“Binglan is so capable and even brought us a lot of delicious food,” Jiang Nainai added, “The things Aunt Qiuhua gave us are great, too. This blanket feels soft and warm.’

Jiang Nainai had folded her new sweater neatly and placed it beside her pillow, planning to wear it again the following morning. She was grateful to Shen Qiuhua for giving her and her husband these things.

She was so excited that she could not fall asleep. Usually, she would have fallen asleep long ago. Instead, her heart pounded from excitement tonight, especially after eating so many delicacies.

She could not stop thinking about the warm and lively atmosphere during dinner. Everyone ate and laughed together, and she felt good. Still, Jiang Nainai knew it was all thanks to Shen Qiuhua.

Shen Zhishan said, Yes, but don’t forget the sweater and sweatpants. You can wear them tomorrow to keep warm. The down jackets Aunt Qiuhua gave us are thick, so you can even wear them when your belly gets bigger.”

Jiang Nainai nodded. “By the way, we have a few acres of land we can use to grow sweet potatoes. Binglan says theyre delicious when roasted. Let’s roast and sell them in town after we harvest them.”

“Then my parents wouldn’t have to work so hard,” Shen Zhishan said. He was worried about his parents spending so much time working. He also knew his grandparents were concerned, even though they did not say it.

‘We should be making money so my parents can relax. Instead, they’re working hard for us.’

Jiang Nainai knew her in-laws worked hard because she was pregnant. The older couple wanted to earn money for the baby. Jiang Nainai was grateful to her in-laws for sacrificing so much for her.

Meanwhile, Shen Zhishan’s heart grew heavy when he thought of his parents. He wanted the ability to give his parents an excellent and relaxing life,

He said, “Yeah, I considered that, too. I’ll ask Binglan to give me the details tomorrow. Then I’ll work hard to improve our lives.”

Jiang Nainai nodded. “l believe we can do it. All right, let’s get a good night’s

Everyone had breakfast the following day. Afterward, Shen Gang and Shen Zhishan went to chop wood, and Su Binglan followed them to the mountain to explore.

Most villages were in a valley at the foot of a mountain. However, the mountain at Blossom Village was small. When Su Binglan explored the small

forest nearby, she discovered mung beans.

She became wide-eyed and suddenly thought of something. She pulled Luo Jin’an’s hand and said, “l have an idea!”

Luo Jin’an noticed his wife’s expression and guessed her thoughts, “Did you find a way to help your grandparents?”

He and Su Binglan had discussed improving her grandparents’ lives when they went to bed last night.

Su Binglan stopped Shen Gang and Shen Zhishan from chopping wood. “Grandpa, Cousin Zhishan, help me pick these mung beans and bring them home.’

Although the father and son did not know why Su Binglan was so excited, they still listened to her. They stopped chopping wood to help her with the mung beans.

After bringing them home, Su Binglan said, “Okay, I’ll teach Grandma and Grandpa to grow mung beans. Then you can stir-fry them as vegetables. Vegetables are scarce during winter, but you can use these in a dish.

“You can also sell mung beans to restaurants. People would undoubtedly enjoy eating such fresh ingredients. Also, they’re effortless to grow since they only take a few days to sprout.”

The older couple could make a living if Su Binglan taught them how to grow mung beans..
