The first person spoke, and then the second and third followed. Several others came forward one after another to inquire.
Shu Yu thoughtfully considered the situation, while Ruan Hai's eyelids twitched vigorously as he scolded the crowd, "What are you arguing about? County Princess has been busy for two days and is exhausted. How can you disturb her?"
Well, were they really embarrassed? When it came to their interests, the villagers were very enthusiastic.
Especially in the nearby villages, many people had started growing sunflowers, and the prices offered by Lu Ji for their crops were fair. Originally, those lower-quality lands didn't yield much in terms of regular crops, but sunflowers increased their value, making them quite envious.
However, due to old lady Ruan influence in their village, apart from Ruan Dalai, who served as a manager for Lu Ji, the other villagers who grew sunflowers received no consideration for sale.
Now that County Princess was here and seemed to have relaxed her stance, how could they miss this opportunity?
"County Princess, I'm skilled in farming. If you entrust it to me, I guarantee that every sunflower seed will be plump and rich in oil."
"County Princess, we have several strong laborers in our family, and we have plenty of land. You can choose us."
Shu Yu furrowed her brows, and Ying Xi quickly showed her understanding, "Alright, stop arguing. Let's go to the village head's house. It's convenient, and with Village chief Ruan as a witness, you won't lose out even if you're discussing business."
Hearing this, everyone thought it made sense, and they all turned to look at Ruan Hai.
The pressure fell squarely on Ruan Hai's shoulders. He tried to hide the distorted expression on his face and could only smile and nod, "Yes, of course, my house is convenient."
He just hoped that Shu Yu would leave quickly. However, at this moment, if he helped the villagers reject this hard-earned opportunity, he would likely face criticism from everyone.
These villagers usually kept an eye on his every move, but now that they were all making the same request, he had to consider it carefully.
So the group of people headed toward Ruan Hai's house. He gave his eldest son a signal to go ahead and notify their family to prepare everything, explain the situation, and clear the path.
Ruan Hai was fortunate that his daughter-in-law returned to her family's home the yesterday. Otherwise, with her injuries and her abrupt appearance before County Princess, it could have sparked even more trouble.
Ruan Hai had been the village head for many years, and although his family had some conflicts with the villagers, there was no denying that their house was the best in the entire village.
It was a tall house with blue bricks and the ground was paved with bluestones. The house had a significant area, with several flower pots in the yard, and the main hall even had two large columns supporting it.
Shu Yu examined the place and said with a half-smile, "Village chief Ruan, your house seems quite luxurious."
Ruan Hai's face twitched slightly, "It was passed down from our ancestors, and the younger generation has renovated it a few times."
