I was in my final year of high school, and my deskmate found out I was writing a novel!

"Want me to give you a ride?"

"Alright, I'll just go up and down the stairs myself. By the way, are you coming back from your uncle's house tonight?"

"Well...it's really not certain. I'll text you whether you come back or not."

"Okay~"

"Why don't you come with me?"

"That won't do. My parents will be unhappy if I do that, and they won't come home even after coming back once."

Su Miaomiao actually wanted to go along too, but it just wasn't really appropriate.

Ye Feng didn't try to persuade him further, as it was indeed a bit unreasonable.

His trip to his uncle's house was planned well in advance. His uncle had already made several phone calls, waiting for him to return, as if there was something important to discuss.

He set off around nine o'clock and arrived at his uncle's house in no time. However, when he arrived, he found that there were many cars parked there!

Before even entering the courtyard, I saw more than a dozen families of all ages wandering around.

When did this uncle start this new business?

Ye Feng thought this way, and it's no wonder he didn't think that way; it's October 1st, and parents bring their children out to play.

"Come on, let's go see how the land is planted."

Ye Feng was standing outside the yard, unable to get the car through. He had even taken out his phone to call his uncle when he saw his cousin walk up to the group with a megaphone and loudly greet them.

This puzzled Ye Feng even more. Wasn't he a boarding student? How come he was also working as a tour guide?

The group followed their cousin out of the yard and headed towards the greenhouse. There were about thirty people in total, mostly two adults and one child.

"Ye Feng, you're here. Please come inside first, I'll show them around."

"Brother, what's wrong?"

"Hehe, these are all students from our after-school care program. I thought I'd let the parents bring their kids to see our ingredients since it's the holidays!"

Ye Feng finally couldn't understand and exclaimed, "Good heavens, it's you again, cousin!"

People send their children to daycare so that they can eat and drink well, which makes the food ingredients extremely important.

Food safety has been a topic of discussion for so many years, so these parents must be paying more attention to what their children eat and drink.

My cousin noticed that many parents of students who had registered asked this question, so he thought about it and simply had the parents who had already registered bring their children over, treating it as a picnic.

Food safety? Are you kidding me? My family farms the land. I make sure you can see and touch the food. What are you worried about?

Some parents don't have time. Who wouldn't want to rest during a holiday? That's why about ten families of parents came.

But that's fine. He simply created a group for all the parents who had signed up. He would post the message himself, and the parents would definitely post it too. That's how he got the publicity going.

"Principal Ye, will the children be eating food grown here?"

Looking at the rows of neatly arranged greenhouses on the ground, one student's parent couldn't help but ask a question.

"Of course, from picking the ingredients to cooking, it definitely won't take more than five hours!"

Upon hearing this, the parents were all taken aback, as they couldn't even get such fresh food at home.

"Principal Ye, you're not kidding us, are you? Buying here now and then going to the market later?"

"Hehe, you don't need to worry about that, because these greenhouses all belong to my family. If I were to buy them, I'd have to spend money too, right?"

"Huh? Yours?"

"Yes, these greenhouses all belong to my dad. Oh, and there's a fishpond too. We don't raise many livestock, but don't worry, the nearby villages have free-range chickens, sheep, pigs, and the like. I guarantee they're not comparable to those farmed animals; they're all free-range!"

Just then, my uncle came out of a large shed and greeted everyone with a smile.

My cousin had already told him beforehand, and he was furious. He only told him after the deed was done, and it was too late for him to disagree—the renovations were already finished!

A few days ago, I called him again to say that I wanted to bring the students' parents to visit. He wanted to disagree, but for the sake of his son's career, he had no choice but to agree.

So, my aunt and I tidied up the house, and now we need to tidy up the greenhouse too.

After exchanging greetings, the uncle noticed Ye Feng following behind, watching the commotion, and his eyes lit up.

"Ye Feng is here!"

"Yes, Uncle, I just arrived too."

Since there were so many people, the uncle didn't exchange many pleasantries with him, but lifted the curtain and welcomed everyone inside.

"What's planted here..."

My cousin continued his presentation with a megaphone, which was one of his specialties, after all, he had worked in these sheds for quite some time.

Uncle, having some free time, didn't go inside but instead stood outside chatting with Ye Feng.

How's university life?

"It's good. It's not as stressful as high school. The teachers don't really supervise, so it's all about self-discipline."

"Yeah, it's university after all. You can't relax even when you're in university. There are so many university students now, there's still a lot of competition."

Encouraging children to study is something every elder enjoys doing.

Ye Feng wasn't annoyed and chatted casually with his uncle.

"Look at your brother, I don't know who he borrowed money from, and he started some kind of after-school care program. I wonder if it will even work out."

"Uncle, you're worrying unnecessarily. Didn't you see that my cousin brought everyone? Look how happy they are! This will definitely work out!"

My cousin kept his promise and didn't mention that he had paid out of his own pocket, which saved him a lot of trouble.

However, my uncle had other ideas.

"Sigh, your aunt and I were thinking of getting your cousin a job there, but she absolutely refused. Now she's always on her phone taking pictures of this and that, I don't know what she's up to!"

Ye Feng was always worried about his cousin, but he didn't know what to say. He could only ask his cousin if he could offer any help.

My cousin really enjoyed it, enjoying the parents calling him "Principal Ye."

He had never seen himself become a principal before. Although the principal position wasn't very authoritative, so many students and parents called him principal!

We visited several greenhouses in a row, and the children were having a blast, running around in the fields. Where in the city can you find such a large space for them to run around freely?

Ye Feng and his uncle followed at a distance, ready to lend a hand if needed.

My cousin answered a phone call and then waved to Ye Feng.

"Ye Feng, the chef I hired has arrived at the village entrance. Go and take him home. My mom has already prepared the ingredients. I'll take the parents to pick some more later."

"Okay, you go ahead with your work, I'll go take care of it."
