Chapter 206 The seedlings have been planted
Tu Suminfei planted the last seedling in his hand firmly into the moist soil, washed the mud off his hands, and said, "There are a few damaged areas that are high up. Big Brother might not be able to handle them alone. I'll go over and take a look."
Everyone agreed with this. Tu Suminfei picked up the repair materials brought by Tu Subo and followed him to the edge of the greenhouse where the damage was more serious.
He squatted down, unrolling a roll of oilcloth while saying calmly, "I heard Uncle San mention that you once caused the Wei family to suffer a loss?"
Tu Subo raised his lips in a smile, and asked, "Hear what Third Uncle said?"
It's not that he underestimated his uncle's insight, but deep down he didn't believe that his uncle could see through his tactics.
Tu Suminfei wasn't surprised by Tu Subo's response. He smacked his lips, his tone remaining calm. "Third Uncle regrets not being able to strike back at the Wei family's resentment in time, but I suspect you're not someone who can tolerate provocation."
"You did this, didn't you?"
Tu Suminfei could sense that Tu Subo was not surprised by this.
The Tu Su family once had many members, so many that Tu Su Bo was too lazy to pay attention to most of them, but Tu Su Minfei was an exception.
This elegant young man, who is a few years younger than him, has a gentle temperament and is said to be both virtuous and handsome, may not have a mind as deep as the ocean, but he is indeed one of the few smart people who makes Tu Subo look at him with admiration.
Tu Subo knew that he couldn't hide it from Tu Su Minfei, and he didn't want to cover it up anymore, so he said bluntly: "Are you planning to find a chance to expose my cold-bloodedness?"
"If the Wei family hadn't attacked Yan Ting and the others first, I might have secretly attacked you today."
Tu Suminfei showed a look of regret on his face: "This opportunity is really rare, it's a pity that I missed it."
After all, although he and Tu Subo are brothers in name only, their relationship is actually quite distant. Although they are not incompatible, they will not miss any opportunity to suppress each other.
This time, he really missed the opportunity.
Tu Subo looked at him deeply and did not respond immediately, while Tu Suminfei smiled and said, "You only caught one. Is it because you didn't have time to do anything else?"
Tu Suting's writing lacks perception and sharpness, but once he describes the scene at that time, his words can cleverly outline the illusion of being there.
There are footprints of varying sizes scattered on the ground. Although there is no more physical evidence, just based on these messy traces, it can be intuitively inferred that there is more than one culprit.
Tu Suminfei raised his eyelids and said calmly, "My elder brother's painting skills are truly exceptional."
"Can you identify the other people's faces?"
In fact, once Wei Tianwen was captured, the rest would be a natural progression.
This man was addicted to gambling and alcohol, so he was naturally a frequent visitor to taverns and gambling houses. It was not difficult to follow the clues and find out who he associated with on a daily basis.
If you have a clear portrait, tracking down the person will be a piece of cake.
Of course, even without a portrait, it is not impossible to act.
Tu Subo turned around and didn't directly respond to his question. Instead, he asked, "It seems like your life over there is going quite well?"
In just a short period of time, he was able to establish his own network and gather intelligence?
Tu Suminfei did not answer, but asked: "What do you think, brother?"
"I'm too lazy to elaborate."
Tu Subo quickly patched up the largest hole and said calmly, "That fellow named Gong Bo is a difficult character. If you dance with the wolves, be careful that one day you will be devoured by them."
He had said all the reminders he could. Whether Tu Su Minfei obeyed or not depended on his own choice.
Tu Suminfei recalled the time when he was kissed by a wolf but was saved. He smiled deeply and complicatedly, and said vaguely, "I know how to handle it. Big brother, just hand over the portrait to me."
He stood up and handed the cut oilcloth to Tu Subo: "Third Uncle said that this matter is over, but from his tone, I am afraid that the storm will come again. In this case, why not take the initiative?"
Although everyone does not believe the Wei family's statement now, if the punishment is not thorough enough, how can the Wei family let it go?
Tu Subo had no intention of letting this matter go easily, and neither did Tu Suminfei.
Facing Tu Subo's scrutinizing gaze, Tu Suminfei smiled openly and confidently: "Look, to be honest, aren't you and I the same?"
The same duplicity, the same cunning hypocrisy.
It is precisely because they have long seen through each other's superficial disguise, and through each other's faces, they have seen their own unbearable true faces hidden under the painted skin.
After a long period of silent staring, Tu Subo smiled self-deprecatingly: "I will give you the portrait tomorrow."
"When you find it, just let me know."
Tu Su Minfei knew very well that he did not have much advantage in martial arts, so he nodded with a smile, understanding the situation in his mind.
He might not be able to handle the struggle, so there was no point in getting involved.
In this amiable land, the relationships between people are as warm and harmonious as the spring breeze. However, in the Wei family's courtyard, a violent storm erupts due to Wei Tianwen's unfortunate injury.
Mrs. Wei's emotions were almost out of control. She tore at her hair frantically and screamed hysterically: "This is all Tu Subo's fault! He caused all this! He admitted to me himself that he is the culprit of all this!"
Mrs. Wei was guarding her unconscious son's bedside, tears pouring down her face like rain. Upon hearing this, she cursed Tu Subo and prayed for the Buddha's blessing. The words in her mouth repeated like a wheel. She wanted to vent, but couldn't find a suitable outlet.
The village chief had clearly warned them before sending them back home that if they continued to cause trouble, they would be expelled from the village. With the only man capable of supporting the family now dead, what could they do, even if they were unwilling to accept the situation?
Mrs. Wei was unwilling to give in and wanted to seek help from others. However, their current situation was so unacceptable that no one would want to help them. Who would be willing to lend a hand?
Above the Wei family, there were cries of grief day and night, like the funeral knell on New Year's Eve, which made people feel taboo. Passersby quickened their pace, not wanting to be contaminated by this ominous atmosphere.
Amid the desperate cries and cries of injustice from the Wei family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, the troubles facing the Tu Su family gradually became apparent.
The seedlings in the fields have been planted. After two days of observation, the situation has stabilized and everyone in the family, young and old, has breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Yuexuan pulled her hand out of the seedlings and said with a smile, "If the seedlings don't float to the surface immediately, it means they have successfully taken root."
The emergency work of transplanting rice seedlings has been completed, and the seedlings have taken root successfully. If no accidents occur in the future, the work at hand will be much easier.
However, just as she was about to breathe a sigh of relief, a trace of doubt suddenly emerged in her heart.
She asked doubtfully, "Will the Wei family come to cause trouble again?"
Her doubts were not unreasonable. After all, the people of the Wei family were indeed hard to trust.
Their family was as stubborn as a rock. It had been four days since Wei Tianwen's arm was broken, and during those four days, the two women of the Wei family, one old and one young, had been like a storm, turning the entire village upside down.
This behavior is really disgusting.
