The wheat had an average appearance.
As soon as these words were spoken, the smile on Qiao Xiaomai's face immediately froze.
Despite already bracing for such news, the reality of it still brought an unstoppable disappointment to her heart, "How average is it?"
"Better than normal wheat, but not by much."
The grain-filling period is when plants store substances like starch and protein into the seeds through photosynthesis, but since Qiao Xiaomai was absent during the wheat's grain-filling period, the quality of this batch was just so-so.
It was better than average but not stunning enough to fetch a high price like sweet potatoes.
Qiao Xiaomai, "...All the efforts of half a year have gone to waste."
What she cared about the most was the wheat, as it was considered the most expensive crop. This year, she had planted nine hundred acres of wheat, anticipating a big profit, only to see it all come to nothing.
It pained her heart.
