"Yes, but Wan'er disliked their clumsiness, so she took care of it herself. The work there is not hard, but you have to be careful."
Zhou Chengyu nodded and said nothing more.
Ling Yi reminded her, "The Mushroom House is not suitable for Miss Cui to stay in for a long time. Mr. Cui should choose someone else to take care of it."
Cui Shouqing looked at Ling Yi in shock, somewhat confused as to why he said that.
Ling Yi asked in return, "When Song Lizheng delivered the mushroom spores, didn't he warn everyone that the mushroom house was dangerous and that staying in it for a long time would cause mushroom lung?"
A hint of discomfort flashed across Cui Shouqing's face.
Because at the beginning, he and his family were very cautious and did not let Cui Wan'er step into the mushroom house.
But after a while, he felt that his body was normal, so he thought Song Li was exaggerating.
It just so happened that Cui Wan'er was too lazy to deal with the competitive younger generations in the family, so she offered to take care of the mushroom house.
He also said that he was well-read and had never heard of the disease "mushroom lung".
Now looking at Ling Yi's expression, which was serious but with a hint of disapproval, his heart skipped a beat and he trotted towards the cellar a few hundred meters away.
Seeing this, Zhou Chengyu also chased after her. After a while, he saw the girl from the Cui family covering her nose and mouth tightly.
"Brother, you're here!"
A voice like that of an oriole came, causing Zhou Chengyu to slow down his pace unconsciously.
Looking down from the steps, I happened to see Cui Wan'er's curved eyebrows, and a warmth seemed to flow through my heart.
The thin body, against the backdrop of the surrounding flower troughs, looked frail and slender, and the eyes were even more lively.
Cui Shouqing hugged Cui Wan'er's arms with both hands and asked anxiously: "Wan'er, are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?"
One sentence shattered Zhou Chengyu's fantasy. Looking at this dazzling scene, he wanted to step forward and tear someone's claws away.
Unfortunately, his identity did not allow him to do so. He could only cough lightly to indicate that there were outsiders present.
Oh no, be careful, you're already a grown man, don't hug girls casually. Even if she's your own sister.
Cui Shouqing heard the movement behind him, and quickly let go of Cui Wan'er's arm, and said to her with a smile: "Play, Master Zhou is here!"
Cui Wan'er looked up and saw the man with a straight posture and powerful aura.
She blushed and bowed, then stood in the corner somewhat awkwardly.
Zhou Chengyu walked down with a smile: "It's been a while since we last met. How are you, Miss Cui?"
Cui Wan'er nodded, her eyes full of tenderness.
Zhou Chengyu withdrew his gaze and did not talk about the Cui family's privacy. Instead, he asked about the cultivation matters in the mushroom house.
Cui Wan'er's gentle words, filled with openness and understanding, made Zhou Chengyu sigh at the peaceful and tranquil life. It was so peaceful that he didn't want to leave.
However, it was getting late, so Zhou Chengyu rubbed his fingers, said goodbye to the brother and sister, and said that if they had any difficulties, they could go to Zhou Jiajun’s base to find him.
"If the situation is critical, you can also go to the Ling family in Qingshan Village for help."
When Ling Yi heard this, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat for his master.
If everything is fine with the Cui family, then there is nothing to say. But if something goes wrong with the Cui family, won’t the master of the family take the blame?
I didn't owe them anything, so how did they end up like this? This young General Zhou really doesn't treat his master as an outsider!
Zhou Chengyu really didn't treat Ling Jiheng as an outsider.
On the one hand, he had no acquaintances in Qingshan Village. After dealing with Ling Jiheng several times, he found that he was quite capable.
He is also relatively sincere in his dealings with others and is truly a person worthy of trust.
On the other hand, of course, before coming here, I removed the shackles of forced labor for the Ling family. With the documents in hand, I don't have to worry about them not agreeing.
In this way, Zhou Chengyu left Dahe Village with Ling Yi. When passing by the village entrance, he saw Cui Yujiao waiting there.
Like Ling Jiheng, Zhou Chengyu directly asked Ling Yi to go around.
Cui Yujiao was so angry that she stamped her feet and ran back to Cui Jingzhong's house, wanting to find out what the handsome young master was doing there.
Out of selfish motives, Cui Jingzhong did not tell the other party that the visitor was the young master of the Zhou family and that he was interested in Wan'er.
He said vaguely, "Mr. Lin heard that there was a war here, so he sent me here to visit."
He also used Cui Yujiao's mouth to send other people in the family away.
Unexpectedly, Cui Yujiao blushed and asked, "Uncle, I wonder if that young master is married?"
Cui Jingzhong looked at his useless cousin and coughed several times in anger.
"Go back, this is none of your business!"
***
When Chi Xingyue woke up, it was already dawn.
I turned over and found that there was no one next to me, and I was quite curious.
It wasn't surprising, after all, as the eldest son of the second wife, Ling Jiheng had to go out and do things. At the very least, he had to entertain guests well.
Indeed, Ling Jiheng got up before dawn.
Knowing that Zhou Chengyu was leaving today, she asked Baozhu to cook a full pot of mutton soup, and asked Aunt Taohua and Xiaohe to fry oil tea noodles and steam a few pots of steamed buns.
After Zhou Chengyu got up, he smelled the tempting aroma of food and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
After doing a set of boxing in the yard and working up a sweat, he went to the ear room to wash up before coming to Rongsiyuan to have breakfast with Zhou's army.
Baozhu’s cooking skills are good, and Ling Jiheng added some chili and pepper to the soup. It warms the body and is very enjoyable to drink.
Ling Jiheng also packed two large baskets of hot pot ingredients, green leafy vegetables, and winter mushrooms from his home for Zhou Chengyu.
Even the mutton offal soup was served in two small jars, which could be heated up and drunk at noon.
After Zhou Chengyu had eaten and drunk his fill, he patted Ling Jiheng's arm, whispered a few words in his ear, and then took his men away.
At that moment, Ling Jiheng felt like he was about to die.
He thought that he really owed the other person. Not only did he help catch the spy, but he also had to take care of the girl that the other person liked.
Humph, aren’t you afraid of taking care of others?
After he could no longer see anyone, Ling Jiheng called Ling Yi over and asked him why he came back so late.
Ling Yi sighed and recounted their experiences during this period.
It turned out that he and Ling San and others went to Zhou's army to report the news. Except for the difficult journey, everything went smoothly.
He thought he could rush back and hide as soon as possible, but unexpectedly, Zhou Chengyu became furious after reading the letter and vowed to eradicate the remnants of Northern Liao.
At the same time, the Luo family must also be held accountable.
He knew that Fu Huanping did not kill Luo Changchun because he was concerned about his relationship with the Huang family.
But how could he let his confidant suffer injustice?
After reporting the situation to General Zhou, he led his men to the county town.
He placed the evidence before Magistrate Huang, taking the initiative and asking him how to deal with it.
County Magistrate Huang never imagined that Luo Changchun would be so bold as to collude with the people of Northern Liao.
During the interrogation, although not every detail was asked, all the necessary questions were asked.
I thought he was still the innocent and kind boy, but I didn't expect him to have hidden so much from me. I'm afraid even the Luo family doesn't know.
County Magistrate Huang knelt on the ground, his head covered in cold sweat.
He kowtowed and said, "I didn't know. I interrogated Changchun according to the procedures and made sure he was fine, so I let him go. Look, the record is still here!"
