The widowed sister-in-law is embarrassed, she criticizes the villain like he only wants to be a love

Yan Shu had the same suspicion as Liu Wenniang, that the bubbling in the well must have some meaning.

It is most likely caused by the earth's crust suddenly becoming active. Another possibility is that because there has been no rain for several months, the groundwater level has dropped, causing a certain upwelling of air currents.

In short, no matter which one it is, it is not a good phenomenon.

"Mom, don't worry. Just observe it for two days. If this phenomenon occurs only in my well, it shouldn't be a big problem."

"Yes, mother, maybe it's just my little sister's well that's like this."

Liu Wenniang nodded, her children's words made her feel more at ease.

Yan Shu asked them to go back to the house to rest for a while. The hot weather outside was really not suitable for working in the fields.

The family returned to the main room, and Yan Shu brought two bunches of washed grapes and placed them on the table.

"Little sister, where did these grapes come from?" Yan Wu stared at the purple-red grapes on the plate in surprise.

After spending time with his family, Yan Shu didn't bother to make up lies again.

"Second brother, from now on you just eat, don't ask me where I got the food."

Liu Wenniang smiled and glanced at Yan Wu.

"But remember, otherwise your little sister won't give you delicious food in the future."

"Remember it, remember it. No matter what little sister gives us to eat from now on, I won't ask any more questions." Yan Wu promised again and again.

The last time the little sister took out those fruits, he was actually a little suspicious.

Those fruits didn't look like ordinary fruits, maybe they were fairy fruits picked by the little sister from the sky, but she couldn't easily reveal the identity of the fairy, so she had to make up a reason to share it with them.

Maybe there is a rule in the fairy world not to reveal secrets to mortals. My little sister also has good intentions, but he can't hold her back.

Yan Huai seemed very calm. The fruit Yan Shu brought out last time had already shocked him, so now he was not surprised at all when he saw grapes of this quality.

He reached out and picked one and handed it to Liu Wenniang.

"Mom, please try it."

"Hey." Liu Wenniang took the grapes and put them in her mouth.

Sweet and sour, juicy, without any sourness from grapes.

"It's delicious, you should try it too."

Yan Wu and Yan Huai just started eating. It was the first time for the two and a half-year-old boys to eat such delicious grapes. They put them into their mouths one by one, with comfortable smiles on their faces.

Liu Wenniang picked a few of the largest and reddest ones and handed them to Yan Shu.

Yan Shu took it with a smile, threw one into his mouth, and ate it slowly.

After the family finished eating the grapes, Liu Wenniang took a look at the sky.

"It's time for us to go back. Your father and eldest brother are both at home, so I don't feel at ease."

Yan Shu nodded: "It's time to go back. Second brother, you should go back too. We need a strong worker like you to dig the pond at home."

"But Erlang asked me to stay here for two days. I'd better wait for him to come back before leaving."

Yan Shu shook his head: "The reservoir must be dug as soon as possible. There is no delay. There are many people in this family. My uncle will be back in two days. Aunt Cao's family still lives next door. If there is any problem, I will call over there." I can hear you, so you don’t have to worry about me.”

She always feels that water shortage will become the most difficult problem in the near future, and the water reservoir at home must be dug as soon as possible.

"Okay then, let's go back first."

Yan Shu returned to his room and went to the space to prepare some food.

She made some mung bean cakes and corn cakes in her free time, and brought some of each to her home. She prepared about ten kilograms of white flour that she had recently ground, and picked out more than 20 eggs from the cupboard and put them into the basket.

Then she went to the yard again and picked some peaches, apples, and grapes.

Everything was put into a basket and covered with a piece of cheesecloth.

When she walked to the oxcart with the basket on her back, Liu Wenniang immediately knew what her daughter was doing in the room.

"Daughter, it's not peaceful outside recently. Please don't use this to subsidize your parents' family in the future."

She whispered in Yan Shu's ear, and Yan Shu smiled and nodded.

"I remember."

I will give it to you next time.

Liu Wenniang felt relieved that she really remembered it.

Yan Wu took the basket and put it on the bullock cart. Liu Wenniang opened the cotton cloth and took a look. Her face changed slightly when she saw the things inside.

She walked to the roadside and pulled out some weeds, then returned to the cart and spread the weeds evenly on the basket.

"Okay, let's go back. Remember to lock the door at night. Take good care of yourself these days and let your brothers come visit you in two days."

Yan Shu waved his hand.

"Be careful on your way."

Yan Wu drove the ox cart towards the village entrance.

After Yan Shu stood outside the door and watched them leave, he was about to go home when he suddenly saw a sneaky figure flash past and hide in the woods not far away.

It's this guy again. Recently, she always feels like someone is watching her secretly.

Who is this person?

-

Jiang Ci and Huan Ying worked hard all the way and finally arrived at Nanwei Mansion before dark.

Huanying looked at Jiang Ci and saw that he looked tired and sick.

"Sir, let's find an inn to stay in first."

Jiang Ci nodded. It was the day when the poison was about to show up. He had been running all the way today, and his body couldn't bear it anymore.

The two found an inn nearby, and Huan Ying booked two upper rooms.

"We will bring hot water to us in a moment. My young master wants to take a bath."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

After the waiter sent them into the room, he turned around and left.

Not long after, someone knocked on the door.

Huan Ying glanced at Jiang Ci, who was adjusting his breathing with his eyes closed, then turned and walked to the door.

"Who?"

"An old man!"

Hearing this voice, Huanying immediately opened the door.

A tall young man walked in slowly.

"Master." Huanying bowed her hands and saluted the man.

The man responded casually, walked straight to the table and sat down.

"As soon as I arrived at Nanwei Mansion, I learned that you were also here. What a coincidence."

Jiang Ci slowly opened his eyes and looked at the man with cold eyes.

"When can you reach the capital at this speed?"

"Haha, it's not easy to go out. I have to visit the mountains and rivers all the way to make the trip worthwhile."

With a somewhat cynical smile on his handsome face, the man picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea. After taking a sip, his face was filled with disgust.

"This tea is bitter and has an earthy smell. It's really unpleasant to drink. Huanying, go find the innkeeper and ask him to bring out the best tea to entertain the distinguished guests."

"Yes!"

Huan Ying took the order and left, leaving Jiang Ci and the two men in the room.

"I recently received news that the Marquis of Zhenbei and his three sons were all killed in battle. It is really sad that all the loyal men in the family ended up like this."

Jiang Ci took a deep breath and curled his lips with a sneer.

"Zhenbeihou's military skills are as good as gods. In the past ten years, it is precisely because of him guarding the northern border that Rong Di has been a little afraid. These few times Zhenbeihou has been defeated, there is obviously a big problem."

The man thought for a moment and nodded understandingly.

"Who do you think it will be?"

"How many people do you think there are in the entire Sui Dynasty who can spy on top secrets?"

"There are many famous generals under Zhenbeihou, and they are all good generals he carefully promoted. Among them, the four most trusted generals are Lin Chong, Sun Wenyuan, Zhang Liao, and Guan Yun. This time the two armies fought, and Lin Chong and Sun Wenyuan also died in the battle. The only ones left are Zhang Liao and Guan Yun."

"Secretly sending someone to investigate the two of them may yield a lot of gains."

"Okay, I will go to Bianjing by water tomorrow morning. Do you have anything to explain?"

Jiang Ci pondered for a moment, his eyes dark and gloomy.

"Say hello to grandpa for me."

The man nodded: "I will bring the message to you. By the way, did you know that your sister-in-law is secretly doing business with the madam of Xiangchun Tower?"
