I'M THE FARMGIRL YOU CAN'T MESS WITH

On the other side, Madam Ma-Liu shouted after she finished the conversation, “Ah Ling, come over quickly. Let’s go over there and take a look.”

“Aye.” Mu Yangling jogged forward. Seeing that Madam Ma-Liu was sweating, she said, “Great-aunt, let me carry you.”

“No need. Your great-aunt isn’t old yet.”

As Mu Yangling helped her forward, she heard her sigh. “In the past, I thought that it would be great if we could have a lot of land. That way, we definitely wouldn’t have to worry about food and clothes. Now that we do have land, planting it has become a problem.”

“Great-aunt, if this land is too lousy, we won’t plant it. Isn’t there still 70 acres of military field over there?”

“You can’t say that. If we don’t farm this land, it will never be fertile. In another two to three years, it will become a wasteland. How vexing would the people who reclaimed it back then be?” Madam Ma-Liu said in a low voice, “I asked your grandmother just now. Since your father manages a hundred families, if we really have no choice, we can ask your father to use his power and deploy a few people over to work for us. No matter what, we have to fix up this land.”

“That won’t do.” Mu Yangling objected without thinking. “It’s not easy for everyone. If my father uses his power for personal gain, won’t the platoon commanders and the generals above be able to use their power for personal gain, too? Won’t the soldiers below be exhausted? Let’s plant it ourselves. If we really have no choice, we can just leave it alone for the time being. When we have money in two years, we’ll spend money to hire people. There’ll be a way.”

Madam Ma-Liu said in surprise, “But isn’t it only right for higher-ups to ask the subordinates to work?”

Mu Yangling: “… In the past, it might be the way things were, but it can’t be the case with my father.”

Seeing that she was upright, Madam Ma-Liu sighed. “Alright, I’ll listen to you. If you don’t want him to abuse his power, so be it. Let’s take a look further. Perhaps there’s fertile land ahead.”

The duo spent another half an hour walking from the military field to the freehold field. Finally, they started seeing medium-grade land, as opposed to the low-grade land seen earlier. However, Madam Ma-Liu and Mu Yangling’s hearts had already turned cold.

Out of 110 acres of land, more than 60 acres were considered inferior. What kind of luck was this?
