Upon hearing Wei Ruo's voice, Shi Dayou regained his senses and said, "I've been observing the seedlings in the fields these past few days, and I feel there might be some problems. I've been following my father to the fields since I was three, and now, having farmed for thirty-five years, I remember clearly what the seedlings should look like at each stage. Even the slightest discrepancy doesn't escape my notice."
Wei Ruo listened intently to Shi Dayou's words without interrupting.
Shi Dayou continued, "Looking at these seedlings today, I just feel something isn't quite right, but I can't be sure if there's really an issue. Hearing Mr. Xu today, my thoughts are somewhat more confirmed."
It turned out that not only Wei Ruo sensed something amiss, Shi Dayou had the same thoughts.
Wei Ruo's gaze towards Shi Dayou changed, showing a hint of admiration.
"Doesn't the village chief consider replacing the batch of seedlings?" Wei Ruo asked.
