Chapter 273 What a blessing!
Cheng Jing'en was unwilling to give up and wanted to get to the bottom of it, but was interrupted by Tu Subo's cold voice: "Cheng Lianhe may have initially thought that his command of the Fangling Camp was a sign of a prosperous career, but now he probably doesn't think so anymore."
"He unknowingly sat on a frying pan that could explode at any moment, with a sharp knife hanging over his head that could drop at any moment. This was no accident. Cheng Lianhe would not be willing to be trapped here. He would definitely investigate further, but he would never tell me the truth he found."
Even if Cheng Lianhe revealed something, it would definitely be a mixture of truth and falsehood.
This Cheng Lianhe and Tu Subo have an irreconcilable feud.
Cheng Jingen's mouth curled up into a strange smile: "I understand."
"After all, he is a general who controls a region's military power. The connections and resources he can mobilize are far beyond our current imagination. He quietly followed Cheng Lianhe and followed the clues to find out the truth."
The bait has been cast and the fish has been hooked.
At this moment, they just need to wait and see, and follow Cheng Lianhe's footsteps closely. They will definitely gain something and get unexpected surprises.
They are already very familiar with this method and it has always worked.
A gentle smile of teachable character appeared on Tu Subo's lips, and he gently brushed off the grass debris stuck to the hem of his clothes, as if hinting that he was about to set off.
Cheng Jing'en leaned against the porch pillar with his arms crossed, and asked curiously, "Those carefully arranged chess pieces in the county, you actually revealed them to Tu Su Minfei just like that. Aren't you worried that he'll take advantage of the opportunity to stir up trouble?"
Tu Subo responded calmly: "He won't."
In fact, Tu Subo took advantage of Gu Yuexuan to some extent.
Gu Yuexuan's life-saving grace to Second Aunt Tu Su was a factor that Tu Su Minfei had to consider. With this life debt, Tu Su Minfei might sneer at him in private, but would never cause any substantial harm to Gu Yuexuan.
Tu Subo had no intention of explaining too much, and Cheng Jingen also lost interest in pursuing the matter.
Cheng Jingen waved his hand and said casually, "Then do as you wish."
"I'm planning to open a grain store in the county town. Will you come to celebrate with firecrackers on the opening day?"
"Won't."
Cheng Jing'en was a little displeased: "My Lord, you encouraged me to open this shop, are you just going to sit back and watch?"
“If you encounter any confusion during the business operation, you may wish to seek help from Tu Su Min Fei.”
Tu Subo thought of Tu Suminfei's business ways in the county town over the past year, and a cunning gleam flashed in his eyes.
"Second Aunt comes from a family of merchants. Tu Suminfei has obviously inherited her business talent. He is a lucrative business man. He may bring you unexpected surprises."
Cheng Jingen curled his lips in disdain: "What about you? What on earth are you busy with in the village?"
"Cultivate the land."
Tu Subo answered confidently: "If I hadn't cleared the wasteland with a hoe and sowed the seeds of hope, where would you get the food to sell?"
"I have to go back to the rice fields."
Tu Subo jumped onto his horse and rode away leisurely. Cheng Jingen stood there in a daze. After a while, he stamped his feet angrily: "Aren't you just kidding me?!"
"Can you tell the difference between a hoe and a sickle?!"
Tu Subo heard Cheng Jingen's roar in his ears, he just chuckled, thinking of the petite figure in the fields, and a doting smile appeared in his eyes.
Who says it is unclear?
Tu Subo hurried home in the afterglow of the setting sun. The humming sound of the door hinge startled the old lady who was sitting quietly in the yard. When she recognized Tu Subo, a trace of invisible fear flashed in her eyes, as if she was disturbed by something ominous.
It seemed as if the haze of the past had dissipated, and everything was back to normal, without any disturbances.
However, for the old lady, the fear from the bottom of her heart had just begun.
The old grandfather didn't need to do anything; just his peaceful and steady figure every day could make the old lady feel boundless panic.
Like cutting flesh with a blunt instrument, the pain is unbearable, yet it is a slow torture.
Tu Subo lowered his eyes slightly, hiding the sarcasm in his eyes, and bowed his head respectfully, "Grandma."
The old lady's face was pale, her lips trembled slightly, and her tone was stiff and indifferent: "Are you back?"
"Yes."
"Since grandma is fine, I will go back to my room to rest."
The old lady nodded mechanically. Tu Subo put away his belongings one by one and looked around, but he couldn't see the person he was looking for.
Where did Gu Yuexuan go?
Tu Subo washed off the dust from the journey, changed into a clean set of clothes, and stepped into the yard again, only to see that the old lady had retreated into the house with a look of panic on her face.
As luck would have it, He Sange passed by the door and saw Tu Subo, so he smiled and said hello: "Hey, Tu Subo, are you back?"
Tu Subo nodded slightly and responded to the greeting cordially.
He Sange smiled and said jokingly, "Are you planning to explore the wine cellar?"
"Come on, let me take you to the place where you plan to dig the wine cellar and take a good look at it."
wine cellar?
Tu Subo knew nothing about the new developments at home. He was confused and failed to understand the deep meaning of these words.
Third Brother He opened up the conversation, "How else can we say your family is so ingenious? Others rack their brains and can't come up with ingenious ideas, but you guys keep coming up with them!"
"I heard from your sister-in-law that your wife actually bought the Wei family's property and planned to open a winery to make wine. She even hired a large number of people to dig a wine cellar."
When talking about the fine wine brewed by the Tu Su family, He Sange couldn't help but linger on the taste and smacked his lips in praise: "The wine brewed by your family is indeed better than any other on the market. If you really decide to open a winery, you will definitely make a lot of money."
"You are so lucky, boy!"
Tu Subo just smiled calmly and followed He Sange to their destination. From a distance, he saw someone holding a blueprint and having a heated discussion with Tu Suting.
Gu Yuexuan's sweat beads slid down her forehead, and she didn't even bother to wipe it off. She said anxiously, "Uncle San, the earthen walls of the fermentation room must be thick enough. They must be three to five times thicker than ordinary earthen walls. It's better to be thick than thin, otherwise it will be difficult to maintain the indoor temperature in winter."
It is not a big deal during the scorching sun, but once Fangling enters the long winter, the critical temperature for fermentation cannot be guaranteed and the quality of the final product will definitely be affected.
Tu Suting's face was solemn as he took note of it carefully. He then added, "As for the room where the wine yeast is made, come with me to take a look. I think this plan might also work."
Gu Yuexuan quickly put away the drawings and followed Tu Suting, completely unaware of Tu Subo's presence, while Tu Subo stood silently by the side.
In Tu Subo's memory, the Wei family mansion was not unfamiliar.
Last year, he accompanied Gu Yuexuan to this land and witnessed Gu Yuexuan's first outburst of anger. She slapped someone loudly in the face, and then angrily punched a wall of the Wei family to pieces.
After several fruitless attempts at making trouble, and with all the relatives and friends related to Wei Tiezhu suffering misfortunes one after another, the Wei family, who had suffered from retaliation, were finally crushed by fear. They had long been hated by everyone in the village and no one wanted to get close to them, so they simply left Yuanqian Village and never returned.
