A time-travelling peasant girl becomes a wealthy woman

Chapter 226 The mastermind behind the scenes

Some secret guards were also arranged in the house. Fortunately, they had been told before that they did not need to get close or monitor when they were present, so not too many people knew about it.

"Is this the medicine for treating the young lady?"

Yan Tianyu asked.

"Yes, Fentian and the others helped me find it."

She also talked about the lotus of rebirth.

"If it weren't for these little pets helping to obtain this miraculous medicine, I don't think anyone would have known about it for hundreds of years."

"indeed."

"How do I use this medicine?"

Huang Mulin was stumped by the question.

She looked at Fentian.

"Ask Guichen."

Fentian gave her the answer.

"I have to ask the teacher in my dream."

Huang Mulin had no choice but to explain this to his family.

Although she was wrong, she also made a great contribution. He Hui Niang pulled Huang Mulin aside and talked to her for a while before letting her go back to the house to wash up and rest.

After falling asleep.

"Gui Chen, how do you use these lotus seeds?"

Huang Mulin took out the lotus seeds of the Lotus of Rebirth and asked it.

"eat."

"Eat it directly?"

"Yeah~"

Fentian interrupted: "Are you sure humans can be eaten directly?"

"......uncertain."

How can you be so unreliable!

Huang Mulin glared at Gui Chen fiercely.

Gui Chen's little roots were shaking, and he didn't dare to look at her.

"How exactly do you use it?"

She asked Fentian, and always felt that Fentian was more reliable.

"I don't know the details, but this kind of spiritual plant cannot be eaten directly by mortals."

"Return to the dust?"

"Hey~"

The ginseng doll sighed and said, "I will be in seclusion for a month."

After saying this, the roots rolled up three lotus seeds and left without looking back.

She entered a door she had never seen before.

???

"Destiny."

"I'm here."

"What is that place? Why haven't I seen it before?"

"A place where you can practice."

"......When was it available?"

"Some time ago."

"I do not know how?"

"Forgot to tell you."

Huang Mulin glanced at the empty roof.

All nonsense.

However, she didn't really care.

Taking the illustrated guide to medicinal plants, he went to his study room.

After Yang Lijun, Yang Hui and others returned to the Yang family’s house.

"Don't worry, the medicine that Mu Mu found with so much difficulty must be fine."

Although Yang Lijun didn't say anything, Yang Hui could see her nervousness and anticipation.

"......Godfather, I am already this old, is there still hope?"

If she could have another child, Yang Lijun would hope so from the bottom of her heart.

"You're only that age."

Yang Hui patted her shoulder and comforted her: "Besides, what abilities do our little girl have that you don't know? It's no problem for her to take care of her body."

"Just rest assured and relax."

"it is good."

The next day, Huang Mulin told his family that the medicine would take a month to be prepared. After hearing the news, everyone's faces were filled with joy.

Lao Wang and An Ning came back and brought back the details of the troublemaker.

"who is it?"

"County Magistrate Xue Shaogui?"

"It's him?"

Huang Mulin frowned.

Since they had met once a few years ago, at least on the surface, no unpleasant conflicts had occurred, and his right to govern as a county magistrate had not been deprived for the time being. He was just secretly collecting evidence of his evil deeds, so that he could have a good reason to do so when he could train his own people to crack down on him in the future.

I never thought that he would reach out to Huang Mulin?

"Do you know why?"

"It's probably because... he's unhappy and is bullying the young lady because she's younger than him." An Ning snorted coldly: "The method he used is somewhat admirable. The leader Fan Wei didn't contact Xue Shaogui directly. It was the grandparents of Xue Shaogui's wife's cousin who intervened, and they went through a long detour."

"Manager Wang and I speculated that this idea had been around for a long time, and the expansion of Linhai Town just gave us the opportunity."

If they didn't have powerful spies and means, they wouldn't have been able to find the culprit so quickly.

"in addition......"

An Ning hesitated for a moment, then said, "There is a person next to Fan Wei, who might be the emperor's man."

"emperor?"

Huang Mulin frowned even more tightly.

What does the person on the dragon throne want to do?

Huang Bo and his wife, who were listening in, bit their lips nervously.

An Ning didn't continue to answer and looked at Lao Wang.

Old Wang then spoke: "I'm afraid you're here for the master."

"Humph, those in higher positions are always suspicious."

Yang Hui snorted coldly.

Although Yang Hui and others have seldom appeared in public in recent years, they live together with Yang Lijun and usually address each other by their names, so many people know their relationship.

Especially in Xiushan Village, you can get the answer just by asking.

When Yang Lijun and Yu Zhenzhou first revealed their backgrounds, they only said that they were from the countryside. As orphans, they were adopted and taught by their adoptive father when they were young. This adoptive father was a lazy and reclusive person, and he did not reveal much else.

Emperor Li Jingchen has always suspected that Yu Zhenzhou and his wife have their own power, but he has not been able to find any clues for many years. The old man who suddenly appeared next to Yang Lijun a few years ago was naturally targeted by his spies.

Yang Hui and others lived in seclusion and rarely interacted with outsiders. Most of the time, they played chess, drank wine, or visited the Huang family at home.

Li Jingchen received a lot of information about the daily routines of Yang Hui and others, but did not find any abnormal behavior, so apart from surveillance, he did not take any other action.

Yang Hui was somewhat annoyed with Li Jingchen's behavior, but since Yu Zhenzhou and Huang Mulin were both involved with the imperial court, he couldn't do anything too extreme.

It's just that he often makes fun of the spies to vent his resentment.

"Fan Wei has dealt with it, just spare the emperor's men's lives and don't direct the blame towards Mu Mu."

Yang Hui gave the order.

"Yes."

Old Wang and An Ning went downstairs.

"Uncle Yang, will there be any danger?"

Huang Bo couldn't help but ask.

"No." Yang Hui took a sip of tea nonchalantly. "The emperor has no evidence, so he dare not do anything."

"He is not the mastermind of this incident. He is probably just trying to secretly observe whether there is any intelligence he wants. As long as he has any concerns, it will be easy to deal with."

"Don't worry, just live your life as usual. There are people protecting the surroundings of the house. No one can hurt you, let alone Mu Mu."

Perhaps Yang Hui's words reassured Huang Bo and his wife, so they stopped asking questions.

Huang Mulin thought that she still had pets, and she could ask them for help when necessary.

With nothing to do at home, Huang Mulin took An Ran and the three pets to the south entrance of the town.

The expansion project is in full swing.

Lao Tian, ​​together with Lao Zhang and several other teams of craftsmen, dug the foundation and drove piles according to Huang Mulin's design requirements. There were hundreds of temporary workers who mainly helped with site clearing, excavation, and transportation.

The canal digging on the other side was also going smoothly.

Wu Zai'an, a personal soldier selected from the organization, is in charge of all matters.

Huang Mulin took a look around and was very satisfied.

She thought about it, then turned around and headed for the beach with An Ran and the pets.

There is a forest extending from the south entrance of the town. Many people are cutting down trees to clear the road. The felled trees can be used to build shops, killing two birds with one stone.
