FARM GIRL TURNS EVERYTHING AROUND: SLY HUSBAND, LET'S FARM

Chapter 881: Chapter 881 Sun Junyan Arrives at the Manor_1

Qiao Meipan heard the words and paused, then shook her head, “No need, Fifth Brother has hired someone to take care of him, he’s doing quite well here.”

“But I also want to fulfill my filial duties, where is your Fifth Brother? Not at home? Go call him back,” Qiao Changshun said.

Seeing this, Qiao Meipan bit her lip and strode towards the Military Camp.

Sun Junyan was in the Military Camp discussing matters with Cen Hong. When he heard what Qiao Meipan said, the two men exchanged glances. Cen Hong gave Sun Junyan a nod, “You are also a filial person. Later, you should personally escort your father back there. Only when you see him settle down with your own eyes will you feel at ease.”

“You are absolutely right, Sir,” Sun Junyan deeply agreed.

He was a filial man and needed to personally check on the manor to feel at ease!

Tong Sanlang heard what Sun Junyan had said and didn’t comment, just nodded his head.

There was nothing at the manor, Sun Junyan casually observed.

By the time several people returned to the manor, it was already late afternoon. Qiao Xiaomai had finished tidying up the room, and Tong Sanlang picked up Qiao Qinghe from the carriage, taking him directly into the Bamboo Fragrance Residence.

Sun Junyan couldn’t hide his curiosity and had been looking around ever since he entered the manor gates.

By the time he was nearing the Bamboo Fragrance Residence, resentment began to stir in his heart.

Back then, he and the Sun Family had also lived in desolate wilderness, but at that time, what he and the Sun Family lived in was a makeshift straw shack, whereas Qiao Xiaomai was now residing in a large manor.

Look at these brand-new walls, the beautiful Guest House, and then at that tall and large Warehouse, the exquisite Courtyard.

Comparisons can be infuriating.

Qiao Changshun, following by Sun Junyan’s side, saw his brother’s inquisitive gaze and spoke up, “Don’t worry, I’ll take care of our father myself.”

Upon hearing this, Sun Junyan turned to look at him, his face showing a faint sneer, “Second Brother, your estate has now grown considerably, yet you still have the time to personally take care of our father?”

“There won’t be work later; winter is coming, and there’s nothing else to do,” Qiao Changshun replied with a naïve smile.

Sun Junyan raised an eyebrow and asked, “What made you think of building a house and fixing up the Courtyard here?”

“The feng shui is good, and the crops grown here are excellent. The wheat sells at a high price, now even becoming a Royal exclusive supply.” Qiao Changshun said with an even bigger smile on his face.

“Back when you started to fix up the Courtyard here, the crops had just been planted, right?” Sun Junyan asked, “Could you tell how good the crops would be just after they were planted?”

“Well…” Qiao Changshun was caught off guard and rubbed his hands. Then he started, “Our family’s place was too small, no space to store grain, so we had to move out. There were three earthen mounds here, adding up to fifty acres, plus these one hundred and fifty acres, making it a pretty large area. That’s why we built the Courtyard here.”

Having heard this, Sun Junyan didn’t explicitly say whether he believed it or not, just uttered a long, “Oh,” which seemed somewhat meaningful.

Qiao Changshun felt uncomfortable under his lingering “Oh” and managed a forced smile, pointing in the direction of the Bamboo Fragrance Residence, “Let’s go and see the room where Father will be staying.”

Sun Junyan gave a slight nod, not saying anything more.

After he inspected the room Qiao Xiaomai had prepared for Qiao Qinghe, he didn’t utter a word, mounting the carriage and leaving.

As soon as he was gone, Qiao Xiaomai immediately called for Qiao Zhaodi and Qiao Yindi, “You two, fetch some water and rinse off the path Sun Junyan walked on.”

Sisters Qiao Zhaodi and Qiao Yindi, very obedient, asked Qiao Changshun for the exact route Sun Junyan had taken and set off to fetch the water.

Having heard Qiao Xiaomai say this, Qiao Changshun rubbed his hands and turned to Tong Sanlang, “Sanlang, let’s stack up a heated kang bed in these next few days.”

Tong Sanlang nodded, “Alright.”
