Jiang Yue took a while to pick up the items. Li Hehua had also finished cleaning up the house and came to help with the harvest with a sickle. Liu Guixia and Xue Erfu came to help when they returned from town in the afternoon.

By the time the sun set, the one acre of soybeans had been harvested and bundled up so that they could be taken home.

Xue Dafu and Xue Erfu started picking the beans, each carrying a big load. Li Hehua and Liu Guixia also picked a small load each. There were still many bundles on the ground. Xue Dafu and the others would come back again, but Li Hehua and the others were going to start making dinner. Once they carried the bundles back, they wouldn’t come back again.

The sickles were all placed in the basket on the back, and so was the bag of beans that Jiang Yue had picked up from the ground.

The bag was small soi t wasn’t heavy at all. Xue Yan carried the basket on his back and held Jiang Yue’s hand. They followed behind Xue Dafu and the others and brought Jiang Yue home.

She went down the mountain and walked up to the fields. When she was halfway there, Jiang Yue saw that her family’s new house was surrounded by a lot of people for some reason. It looked very lively. There were men and women of many different ages.

By right, the sun had already set, so Li Qingshu, Lu Zhuangniu, and the others who had built her family a big house should have finished work and gone home.

“Why are there so many people here?” Jiang Yue asked Xue Yan.

Xue Yan didn’t notice the crowd at first, he was only following his parents and bringing Jiang Yue home. After hearing Jiang Yue’s words, he followed her line of sight and shook his head, “I don’t know.”

When they came down from the dam and went around the river to enter the village, they heard Li Qingshu pointing at them and saying, “Look, look, Xue

Yan and Jiang Yue are back!”

Hearing this, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan looked at each other.

Was it related to them?

Xue Erfu carried a large load and walked in front first. Seeing that Li Qingshu and the rest had finished their work and still hadn’t returned, and that there were even many villagers standing in front of their new house, he raised his voice and asked, “What’s going on? Hurry up and take a look. Why are they talking about Xue Yan and Jiang Yue?”

“They’re fine. It’s the wild thing that the kids dug up from the ground and planted!” Li Qingshu also laughed loudly. “Look!”

With that, Li Qingshu took out something from his basket and raised it for Xue Erfu to see.

It was an oval-shaped object.

The color was pale yellow.

Li Qingshu couldn’t even hold it with one hand.

When Jiang Yue saw it, she thought to herself, ‘That’s a potato.’

They were quite big, the kind that could stir-fry a large plate of shredded potatoes.

How did Li Qingshu get a potato?

She also said that it was that wild thing that she and Xue Yan had dug up from the ground and planted… Could it be that someone had touched that acre of potatoes in her family’s field? Or were the potatoes that she had planted on the other mountains dug up in order to not raise suspicion.

However, no one in the village would touch the things in other people’s fields. Not everyone was like Liu Guisheng and the others. The latter possibility was that the potatoes she planted on other mountains had been dug up.

Thinking that she had not shown the potato sample to Xue Yan yet, Jiang Yue lowered her voice and said to Xue Yan, “that’s a potato. It should be the when I planted them on the other mountains and they must have been dug up by someone.”

Xue Yan didn’t know what potatoes were, but when Li Qingshu said that he and Jiang Yue had dug them up and planted them, he could guess that if they weren’t potatoes, they must be sweet potatoes.

He had seen what the other wild plants that he had pretended to dig up looked like.

However, Jiang Yue had mentioned that there were three types of sweet potatoes — red, white, and purple. This one was earthy yellow, so it could only be potatoes..
