Chapter 443: Chapter 418: Abundant Harvest (Double-Length Chapter)_1
Watching Wentao and Wenkai devour their food, Daohua silently served them each a bowl of soup, “Eat slowly, no need to rush.”
Wenkai didn’t slow his pace of shoveling rice and picking up dishes, his cheeks bulging as he said, “Big Sister, do you have any idea how long it’s been since we last had a proper meal?”
Before Daohua could respond, Wenkai continued with a pained expression, “Ever since the day we were knocked out and thrown into the deep forests, we haven’t had a decent meal.”
Daohua: “Then what have you been eating these days?”
Wenkai and Wentao paused in their vegetable picking, their faces taking on a strange hue as they bowed their heads and continued to eat rice without speaking.
Daohua was about to ask more when Xiao Yeyang tugged at her sleeve.
...
Daohua turned to him, her face puzzled.
Xiao Yeyang gestured with his finger for Daohua to come closer.
Daohua leaned in, and Xiao Yeyang whispered, “In the deep forests, without a firestarter, what could they have eaten?”
Daohua immediately widened her eyes, and after a moment she exclaimed indignantly, “That’s too much, how can they do this? Eating raw food can lead to stomach problems…”
Before she could finish, Wenkai and Wentao rushed out of the house, and soon after, the sound of vomiting could be heard from the courtyard.
Xiao Yeyang looked at Daohua with a smile, “Just now they were sickened by your cooking, and now you’ve made them sick with your words. It’s even now.”
Daohua gave Xiao Yeyang a sideways glance and then eyed the dish on the table, “No wonder Third Brother and Fourth Brother didn’t touch the meat.” Saying this, her face showed concern, “You think they’ll have a psychological shadow from now on?”
Xiao Yeyang smiled, “As long as you don’t keep mentioning it in front of them, they should be fine after some time. There are many soldiers in the army who have eaten raw food.”
Daohua fell silent for a moment, then called over Wang Manman, “Go to the greenhouse and pick some tomatoes.”
Wenkai and Wentao returned after retching, their appetites greatly diminished, only taking a few bites before stopping.
At that moment, Wang Manman brought in the washed tomatoes.
Daohua pushed the tomatoes cheerfully in front of her two brothers, “Third Brother, Fourth Brother, try these.”
Wenkai picked up a tomato, “Eat it like this?”
Daohua nodded, “Yeah.” She then picked one up herself and took a bite directly.
Seeing Daohua eat, Wenkai and Wentao started to eat as well. After one bite, they thought it was good and sped up their eating.
Daohua saw Xiao Yeyang sitting still and handed him one.
Xiao Yeyang accepted with a smile, tasted it, and nodded, “I didn’t expect this red fruit to be edible. We used to just look at it as decoration, which was such a waste. By the way, is this a fruit?”
Daohua: “It’s both a fruit and a vegetable. Tonight, I’ll make you tomato scrambled eggs.”
Xiao Yeyang: “Great, if it’s tasty, I’ll send some back to Uncle Emperor.”
Daohua paused for a moment, “The tomatoes picked from the greenhouse this year, I planned to keep for seeds. If you want to send some… I can give you at most two baskets.”
Xiao Yeyang thought for a moment, “Give me a cartful. The tomatoes that you’ll have for sale next year, if Uncle Emperor likes them, I guarantee your tomatoes will sell well.”
Daohua’s eyes gleamed, “That’s right, what better promotion than the Emperor’s liking? Okay, I’ll give you a cartful. I have a lot more recipes for tomatoes, I’ll write them down for you later, I’m sure the Emperor will love them.”
“Anything the Emperor likes to eat is sure to be well promoted.”
Looking at Daohua’s sparkling eyes, Xiao Yeyang smiled silently.
It was not long before the few tomatoes Wang Manman had picked were all eaten up.
Wenkai looked eagerly at Daohua, “Big Sister, I want to eat more.”
Daohua refused outright, “Eat more tomorrow, it’s not good to eat too much of anything all at once.”
Wenkai didn’t persist further but asked, “What about those gold thieves? Did they leave?”
Xiao Yeyang glanced at Wenkai, “Looks like your lesson wasn’t harsh enough.”
Wenkai’s face stiffened.

Wentao asked, “They were Imperial Officials?”
Daohua nodded, “Mhm.”
Wenkai immediately looked over mournfully, “Then why did you call them bad guys, Big Sister?” It had led to them being severely handled.
Daohua gave an embarassed smile, pointing at Xiao Yeyang, “He misled me.”
Xiao Yeyang gave Daohua a sidelong glance and said nothing.
Wentao looked seriously at Xiao Yeyang, “Those people were looking for a gold mine, is that alright?”
Xiao Yeyang shook his head, “It’s fine, they were acting under orders.”
