When Gu Huanian saw the two teapots in the morning, he switched their positions.

Even if he did drink it, it's fine, because he has an antidote ready.

"This must be a misunderstanding. There's no question of drugging her. I think Lanlan was just sleepy and fell asleep in bed!"

As she spoke, she looked at Murong Lan, who quickly realized what was going on. After all, there were outsiders here, and it would be bad for her reputation if word got out.

So he quickly replied, "Yes! I misspoke earlier. I was just too sleepy, that's why I fell asleep on your bed."

Madam Chen pointed to the insects that had appeared out of nowhere on her body and asked, "Where did these insects on your body come from?"

No bugs should crawl up to you while you're sleeping normally. This granddaughter of the chief must be really unhygienic!

"Ah! Ah!...."

Murong Lan screamed while swatting the bugs off her body.

She didn't care about saving face anymore and said directly to the group, "I have to go back now."

She didn't want to stay here a second longer; she needed to go back and take a good shower. She would go crazy if another bug crawled out of her body.

Chen Shuling was about to say something when Gu Huanian interrupted her. He looked at Murong Lan, who was about to leave, and said, "Don't do these useless things anymore, or I won't mind giving you a different kind of animal to play with next time."

Murong Lan covered her face and ran away. Madam Chen hurriedly said to Chen Shuling, "I have something to do, I'll go back first."

Chen Shuling had no intention of keeping her any longer. She had thought that after today, Gu Hua would be at her mercy for a year.

I never expected this brat to be so cunning; he's nothing like his stupid mother.

After everyone left, Wang Ma also went to the kitchen, leaving only Chen Shuling and Gu Huanian in the living room.

"Huan Nian, don't take today's events to heart."

Gu Hua chuckled lightly; "You'd better save your breath in the future! If there's a next time, things won't end so easily between you and Murong Lan."

After saying that, Gu Huanian turned around and went back upstairs.

Chen Shuling's face was ashen; she felt that Gu Huanian had completely changed since his return.

He doesn't respect her as much as he used to. Does he know something?

On the fourth day of Gu Huanian's stay at home, Liang You returned.

He knew about Gu Huanian's family and came directly to them.

When Gu Huanian saw him arrive, he told Wang Ma that he didn't need to cook for him today, and then followed Liang You out.

Upon arriving at Liang You's house, Gu Huanian finally asked, "How was it?"

“I found out that the two people you mentioned are twin sisters. The older sister ran away more than 20 years ago. I found out through various inquiries that her parents wanted to marry her off to a domestic abuser who was blind in one eye and had a limp in one leg. She ran away the day before the wedding. Her younger sister, Chen Shuling, disappeared six years after her sister ran away.”

"It is said that her older sister ran away, and her parents refused to return the bride price, so they married off her younger sister, Chen Shuling. What puzzles me is that this abusive man, who usually doesn't like to go out, actually fell into a well and died on his way back from drinking. It's really strange."

Gu Huanian pondered for a moment; "You suspect that the abusive man from back then might have been murdered."

Liang You nodded; "I only suspect it, but I have no evidence to prove it, because I heard from the people who were there at the time that the man did drink alcohol and did fall into the well and die."

Gu Huanian nodded; "I understand the general situation. Thank you."

"polite"

Meanwhile, Su Li has been cutting pig feed these days, living a carefree life.

The grain in the space can't be harvested yet, so she'll harvest a batch of fruit.

I was thinking of making some canned fruit to sell. I always sell fruit, and although Boss Lu always takes a little, it's still too little.

It just so happens that Chen Shujing is now living alone in Zhou Yuting's old room, which makes it much more convenient for her to move around the room by herself.

That morning, she finished her daily quota of pig feed. After lunch, Su Li took an oxcart directly to town and found Lu Shan.

"Mr. Lu, I've come here to buy some sugar and jars for canned fruit. Do you have any connections?"

Upon hearing Su Li say this, he knew that Su Li had come up with a new breed.

Of the grain he traded with her last time, he first set aside 200 jin for his family, which his wife and parents were extremely happy with.

Of course, he also thought the taste was very good, unlike the rice he ate before, where he would sometimes find a small stone that would chip his tooth.

The rice traded with Su Li was fragrant and delicious when steamed, and it had no impurities at all.

Even after finishing the meal, I felt warm all over. My body, which had been tired, felt much lighter after eating.

Lu Shan felt that after meeting Su Li, his family's life had improved significantly.

These past two days, because of this grain, he also got involved with the city's black market boss, known as Brother Yu.

Having established connections with the city was no easy feat for him, so he was grateful to Su Li.

Yes, but how much do you need?

"I want two hundred jars and bottles, and another fifty pounds of white sugar."

Lu Shan smiled and asked, "Are you going to make canned fruit?"

Su Li nodded; "That's the plan. We'll make it and let Boss Lu try it."

Lu Shan smiled even more broadly, knowing that once Su Li said she would do something, she would almost certainly succeed.

"Alright, if it's good, I can buy it all for you."

Su Li originally intended to sell it to him anyway.
