More than four months had passed since the last visit, and as Jiang Shaohua stepped into the field manor again, she was taken aback by the scene before her.
The plants stood at a height of four to five feet, each bearing large fruit. With the slightest breeze, the fruit swayed heavily, as if ready to drop at any moment.
"Is this corn?"
Jiang Shaohua instinctively lowered her voice, as if speaking too loudly would scare away the crops in the field.
Cui Du, who had spent days working in the fields and was quite tanned, smiled, revealing a set of white teeth: "Yes. This is all corn. We could have harvested it two days ago, but Chief Historian Chen and Chief Historian Feng insisted on waiting for the Commandery Princess to return before harvesting. So we waited an extra two days."
Harvesting new grain is an extremely important and joyous occasion. Naturally, the Commandery Princess must be the first to start.
