Chapter 442: Planting Sweet Potatoes in the Field

With the County Chief there, the land purchase went smoothly.

Previously, all of the Tong Family's land was planted with crops. Tong Tiehu didn't want those plots. Instead, he deliberately chose deserted land that hadn't been cultivated. These two acres of land were far from Anping Village, but fairly close to the three hills of Qiao Xiaomai's.

After obtaining the ownership certificate and purchasing a cartload of sweet potato sprouts, the three of them returned to Anping Village.

Upon reaching the village entrance, Qiao Xiaomai got off the carriage and went home, while Tong Sanlang and Tong Tiehu went back to the Tong Family residence.

By now, it was already dusk, and smoke had risen from the stoves in many households. Dinner was also ready at the Tong Family's house when the grandfather and grandson returned home.

At the dinner table, Tong Tiehu took out the land deeds and announced the next day's work: planting sweet potatoes.
