Siheyuan (traditional courtyard house): 52 years of farming, producing hundreds of millions of tons

"what?"

"It's actually quite delicious!"

Fan Jinyou grabbed one and ate it.

He had to admit that the crops Wan Ping'an grew, whether tomatoes, pumpkins, or watermelons, all tasted absolutely top-notch.

"I advise you to finish eating and go home to find your wife as soon as possible."

Wan Ping'an said with a smile.

"I'm not married yet!"

Fan Jinyou looked at Chen Xueru and Xu Huirong. Both were beautiful women and very wealthy. Marrying either of them would save him half a lifetime of struggle.

"That would be terrible!"

"Here's a suggestion: find a large water tank, fill it with cool water, and soak it in it overnight, and it will be fine."

Wan Ping'an smiled.

Anyone who underestimates his jade chives will surely suffer greatly.

Half an hour later.

Fan Jinyou has gone home.

"There are clouds in the sky and wind on the ground. It's going to rain. It should be cool, but why do I feel so hot?"

Fan Jinyou blushed.

Unbutton your clothes.

He had just arrived home when it started to drizzle outside.

"It's hot, so hot."

Why is it getting hotter as it rains?

Fan Jinyou sensed something was wrong.

Even after taking off all my clothes and wearing only a pair of shorts at home, I still felt hot, and it kept getting hotter.

He drank some cold water.

Much better.

But it got hot again very quickly.

He drank some more cold water, but couldn't drink anymore; he was full.

"Oh my god, this jade chive is really effective!"

"It's so hot, are we really going to soak in the water tank all night?"

"Run! Anyway, I'm at home, living alone. Even if I soak in the water tank all night, as long as I don't say anything, who will know?"

Fan Jinyou made his decision.

When I opened the lid of the water tank, I was dumbfounded.

He forgot to fetch water today; the water in the tank is only about a hand's width deep, barely enough to soak one's feet.

"No, it's too hot, I can't stand it!"

Fan Jinyou opened the door and rushed into the rain.

The rain is getting heavier!

It feels so good to wash over my body!

“Honey, look! Isn’t that Fan Jinyou?”

"That's him. What's he doing rushing out in such heavy rain, wearing only his underwear?"

"I understand. He wants to save money. It's raining so hard and the weather isn't too cold, so he can take a shower while it's raining and save money on bathing!"

"That makes some sense. But wait, if he wanted to take a shower, he should have gone home. Why is he standing in the rain?"

·· Requesting flowers ·

"It really is true. He's been standing in the rain the whole time, not moving at all. Has something happened to him?"

"Something must have happened!"

Fan Jinyou felt a comfortable sensation as the cold rain washed over him.

He didn't realize that quite a few people had seen him because he had gotten into trouble and was traumatized.

Until two people rushed out in the rain, one on each side, and shoved him into the house.

"Uncle, Uncle, what are you doing?"

Fan Jinyou recognized him.

They were the two old men in charge of their courtyard.

"Xiao Fan, listen to me. When you encounter problems, try to think positively. There's no hurdle in life that you can't overcome."

“The old man is right, Xiao Fan. If you’re having any troubles, just tell me. Even if I can’t help you, I can still listen.”

The two old men gave him a good talking-to.

Fan Jinyou was both amused and exasperated. Nothing had happened to him; he had just eaten too many leeks and felt hot all over, so he had to go out in the rain.

"Gentlemen, I'm really fine."

"I'm just too hot. I need to get some rain to cool down. But I can't take it anymore. I need to go outside and cool off."

Fan Jinyou rushed out again.

"Uncle, Xiao Fan said he's just too hot?"

"He seems fine, he's probably just too hot. But why is he so hot?"

The two managers were completely baffled.

When they reached the door, they looked at Fan Jinyou in the rain. Upon closer inspection, they could see steam rising from his body, indicating that he was indeed very hot.

"Xiao Fan, tell us what happened?"

An old man shouted at Fan Jinyou.

"I don't know, I just feel very hot."

Fan Jinyou didn't want to talk about leeks.

It's a bit embarrassing.

"Xiao Fan, there's definitely something wrong with your health."

"In this heavy rain, even if other people are very hot, they will get cold after being rained on for a while. You're getting rained on and hot all the time, that won't do!"

"Let us take you to the hospital!"

The two stewards were worried again.

Fan Jinyou didn't want to go to the hospital and insisted that he was fine.

"Gentlemen, let me tell you the truth!"

"I ate too many chives!"

Fan Jinyou was at his wit's end.

"Little Fan, do you know how old your grandpa is?"

“I’m in my fifties or sixties, and I’ve eaten plenty of chives before. Let me tell you, it’s all just a placebo effect; it doesn’t really have much of an effect.”

"You say you ate too many chives? Who would believe that?"

An old man thought Fan Jinyou was lying to him.

Second Uncle nodded as well.

The two share the same viewpoint.

Fan Jinyou is definitely sick.

Fan Jinyou was speechless. Nobody believed him when he told the truth?

"Gentlemen, do you remember the exorbitantly priced tomatoes, pumpkins, and watermelons that were sold a while ago?"

"The chives I ate were grown by him. They're called jade chives, and they're different from the chives grown by others. Have you gone there yet?"

Fan Jinyou did not want to help Wan Ping'an with publicity.

But he was worried that if he didn't tell the truth, the two old men would really take him to the hospital.

The two old men exchanged a glance, half believing him.

Fan Jinyou was in the rain for more than three hours before he felt cold and the chill wore off!

The next morning.

The story of Fan Jinyou eating too many leeks and getting so hot that he stood in the rain for more than three hours spread throughout the tenement where he lived.

"Luckily, I only got caught in the rain, nothing serious happened."
