“This is a yam from the west. It seems quite rare. When you bring it to your new locations, cut the seeds into pieces and plant them like regular yams. They might grow well,” Qiao Xuan explained.

“Since it’s called yam, it should be similar to what we have. You can steam, stir-fry, or cook it. I’m not sure about the taste, but the ingredients should be good. Take it with you as a keepsake!” Qiao Xuan suggested.

Qiao Xuan had pondered for a while before deciding to share the seeds with each of them.

Given the stinginess of the Tian Family and the remote and impoverished location they were assigned, the local residents struggled with year-round starvation and a difficult existence.

Potatoes were a high-yielding crop that thrived in various types of soil. If they discovered this when planting them in the current year, it would naturally lead to promotion. With Qiao Xuan’s superpower-enhanced seeds, they would likely be more resistant to pests and environmental challenges, resulting in a bountiful harvest. Even if they had just a few seeds, they could ignite a significant change.

Moreover, being in the south might provide an opportunity to find more potatoes.

Lu Min would be in Fujian and might be able to obtain additional potatoes for planting.

Regardless, Qiao Xuan had already provided assistance when it was needed. What unfolded in the future would depend on their luck.

By spreading potatoes locally, the residents wouldn’t need to worry about lacking promotion and would have a more promising future.

However, Qiao Xuan couldn’t explicitly explain the benefits of potatoes. It was something she couldn’t articulate.

Shao Yunduan grinned. “Take all of it. It’s your Sister-in-law’s precious treasure, and she keeps it personally. No one else is allowed to touch it!”

Laughter filled the air.

Lu Min and Gu Zhiyou expressed their gratitude to Qiao Xuan.

Qiao Xuan continued to remind them, and they nodded in acknowledgment.

As they departed, Shao Yunduan expressed his gratitude to Qiao Xuan. “Thank you for your generosity!”

Without Qiao Xuan, he wouldn’t have received such a significant sum of money.

Qiao Xuan smiled and replied, “My husband and I are one. You don’t have to treat me as an outsider.”

“No, I truly appreciate your help,” Shao Yunduan insisted.

“You’re welcome!”

They exchanged smiles.

In truth, without Shao Yunduan and the Tian Family’s assistance, Qiao Xuan would have struggled to survive in this world, despite her superpower.

She couldn’t reveal her abilities to others as it would only invite trouble.

In the eyes of the world, she was merely a vulnerable woman. Making money wasn’t easy, and even if she accumulated wealth, it would attract endless trouble and unwanted attention. It was quite bothersome.

The only alternative would be to hide away in remote mountains and forests, but that would be dreadfully dull.

Only when they were together could they truly enjoy themselves and experience life to the fullest.

Money held little significance for Qiao Xuan. With her skills, she could easily earn money whenever needed.

After bidding farewell to Lu Min and the others, the remaining classmates departed from the capital and commenced their respective work assignments. Those assigned to positions in the capital reported to their respective governmental offices.

Shao Yunduan, too, was assigned to Hanlin Academy.

Although no one dared to gossip openly about him and the Elder Miss anymore, he still faced exclusion from his peers.

After all, it was widely known that the Tian Family and the Elder Miss had suffered humiliation.

The Tian Family would never let Shao Yunduan off the hook.

Their actions were merely an attempt to save face.

They eagerly anticipated Shao Yunduan’s downfall, convinced that his luck as an officer was about to run out.
