    General, I Have Fertile Farmland - Dong Cang

    TALKING

    CHAPTER 201 - WEI SHUYING'S MOTHER-IN-LAW

    Mother! I... I did not … Wei Shuying explained anxiously.

    However, Zhang didn't listen at all. She immediately sat down on the ground and began to wail loudly, My poor son, your bones are not even cold yet. This unfaithful woman ran back to her mother's house to steal her men!

    Wei Shuying was suddenly at a loss of what to do. She wanted to step forward and help Zhang up.

    Wei Shuyu held her back and led her to the door. As she knocked, she said, Where did this crazy woman come from? Sister Shuying, please stay far away from her. Don't let her hurt you.

    The door in front of them opened very quickly. It seemed like Uncle Wei and Qiao were also paying attention to the situation outside the door.

    Zhang sat on the ground and cried loudly. She had planned to attract the attention of the villagers so that she and her new daughter-in-law could enter the Wei household smoothly, but the result was different from what she expected. It was probably because it was already dark and the villagers were all resting.

    Zhang was a little dumbfounded. She thought that her daughter-in-law would help her no matter what. When the time came, she would grab hold of her tightly and not let her go. Then, she could take the opportunity to follow in.

    In the end, who knew where this stupid girl came from, she actually stopped Wei Shuying. The two of them were just about to enter the door.

    Halt! Zhang yelled and quickly got up from the ground. She walked a few steps in front of Wei Shuying and wanted to grab her.

    Fortunately, Wei Shuyu had put some effort into her self-defense and pushed Zhang far away with a few moves.

    Who the hell are you! When I speak to my daughter-in-law, how can I let you interfere?! Zhang didn't dare to move from her original spot after being suppressed by Wei Shuyu's move. However, she still looked at her arrogantly.

    I'm called Wei Shuyu, and you're saying that this has nothing to do with me? Wei Shuyu frowned. If you want to talk, then stand there and talk. Don't move. Otherwise, I won't be lenient just because of your age.

    You! Zhang pointed angrily at Wei Shuyu. After a moment, she snorted. What a family. You're just as uneducated as she is. Even though he said that, he didn't move forward to attack.

    Wei Shuyu gave Wei Shuying a look.

    After Wei Shuying understood what was going on, she looked at Zhang and asked, Mom, why are you here? Wasn't she supposed to be at home, waiting for a new wife to attend to her?

    When Zhang heard her words, she started to cry again. My poor son, you're just leaving like this. Leaving behind an old woman like me, how are you going to live …

    At first, they thought that she was still crying because of her eldest son, but after listening to a few more sentences, their expressions immediately changed.

    Wei Shuying's face was filled with disbelief. Mother … What did you just say, Great Fortune... Big Fortune died in battle? " Seemingly unable to bear the news, her body swayed a few times. Luckily, Wei Shuyu was right beside her, so she quickly supported her.

    When Zhang heard this, her crying stopped. She scolded Wei Shuying, You're the jinx. Ever since you came to our house, things have been getting worse and worse for our family. Now, it's good. All the men in our family have been troubled to death by you.

    Wei Shuying's face turned pale. After hearing this, Qiao was displeased. What nonsense are you spouting? If my daughter is really annoying, then why are her father and I still fine!

    Wei Shuyu didn't like those words either, which reminded her of herself when she had just arrived here.

    Zhang also knew that it was too much for her to offend her parents, so she looked forward to entering the house. So he stopped talking about it. After some thought, Zhang continued, My daughter-in-law, I've come here with great difficulty. I haven't even had a sip of my saliva. Aren't you going to let me in?

    After all, she was his mother-in-law who had served him for more than nine years. A flash of hesitation appeared on Wei Shuying's face as she turned around to look at Qiao.

    Qiao looked at her attitude and sighed in her heart. She then stepped aside and said, Come in.

    Zhang's eyes lit up, she turned around and called out to the person standing by the wall, Fang Zi, come over here, we're going in.

    Wei Shuyu and the rest's attention had been focused on Zhang. Now that they saw another person standing by the wall, they were shocked.

    When that person walked up to them, the crowd was finally able to clearly see her appearance.

    It was a woman with an ordinary appearance and a short stature. She was wearing coarse hemp clothes.

    When Wei Shuying saw her, she immediately grabbed onto Wei Shuyu's arm, stopping herself from falling down.

    From her reaction, Wei Shuyu also understood who this person was.

    Then, she frowned. This Zhang really didn't know what politeness was. Did she think that the Wei family was easy to bully? After chasing Wei Shuying back, he turned around and brought his new daughter-in-law over to the old daughter-in-law's house. What was the meaning of this? Was this showing off?

    However, it was not because of Wei Shuyu protecting her family. Although Wei Shuying's appearance was not that of an exceptional beauty, she still inherited Uncle Wei's and Qiao's virtues. She had a dignified, graceful, and tall figure.

    As for the one opposite him, he had a round face and small eyes, but he was probably someone that his mother-in-law would like. He had a big chest and buttocks, so he looked very fertile.

    What do you mean? Our family isn't a place that just anyone can enter. Qiao was angered. Letting Zhang in was already a matter of face for her daughter, and she still wanted them to let the person who robbed her daughter's husband in!

    Dear family, why do you say that? What is an outsider? Isn't this Fangzi Shuying's sister? Moreover, she still has my son's seed in her stomach, and your daughter won't be able to give birth to him. In the future, won't she have to rely on my grandson to provide for her? Zhang boasted shamelessly as she squeezed through the door.

    Qiao blocked the door tightly, not letting him in. No! I don't care how you got here. Quickly take this woman and get lost!

    That woman called Fangzi had a submissive expression, looking at her mother-in-law's actions without making a sound, she seemed to have a submissive personality. No wonder this arrogant and despotic Zhang didn't like Wei Shuying.

    Wei Shuying felt cold all over because of Zhang's actions. She didn't expect that her mother-in-law, whom she had worked so hard to serve for nine years, would treat her like this, but she couldn't bear it. "Mother, let her and that woman come in first.

    You … Qiao froze for a moment before she let him in with a sigh.

    Zhang was secretly pleased with herself, but she didn't dare to show it on the surface. She led her new daughter-in-law into the room without saying a word.

    My dear family, I haven't had a hot meal all this way. Do you have anything else? If not, then do it for us. After they entered the room, Zhang found a hot brick bed and sat on it.

    Qiao heated up the leftover dishes for today and said, That's it.

    Although he was dissatisfied with the leftovers, when he took a look at the dishes, he noticed that there were actually scrambled eggs. Furthermore, the eggs had not been diluted with noodles, so his eyes immediately lit up and he started to eat.

    CHAPTER 202 - LIVE

    Wei Shuyu had entered the room after the few of them. Upon seeing this situation, she frowned, but didn't say anything.

    Yuniang, can I stay over with you tonight? Wei Shuying asked in a low voice.

    Before Wei Shuying came back, she stayed in the same room with Uncle Wei and Qiao, then she stayed in the same room with Wei Ze. After she came back, Qiao stayed with her in Wei Ze's room, and Wei Ze stayed with Uncle Wei.

    Now that Zhang and this woman called Fang Zi were here, they obviously wanted to make room for them.

    Wei Shuyu nodded slightly. Sure.

    Wei Shuying heaved a sigh of relief. Even though Wei Shuyu was younger than her, she still admired her from the bottom of her heart. Everyone could tell that Wei Shuyu didn't like Zhang when she was at the door. Therefore, Wei Shuying was afraid that Wei Shuyu wouldn't like her because of her decision to bring Zhang and Fang Zi into the room.

    Wei Shuying lay on the brick bed for a long time, unable to fall asleep. She was upset about what had happened today. Wei Shuying's tears flowed silently for a while when she thought of her husband, and then she thought of the woman with her husband and children in her womb.

    After tossing and turning for a long time, Wei Shuying asked softly, Yuniang, are you asleep?

    Wei Shuyu opened her eyes. Her eyes were clear. No. She had discovered that there were strangers present, so her sleep was very shallow. Today, she guessed that Wei Shuying definitely had something to say, so she didn't sleep very deeply.

    Wei Shuying hesitated for a moment before asking, What do you think? What did my mother-in-law want with me? " Although Wei Shuyu was younger than her, she was smarter by a lot. Thus, when she couldn't figure it out for herself, she just asked.

    Wei Shuyu couldn't be sure of this question, so she first asked Wei Shuying about the specific situation of her family. What is the situation of your husband's family?

    When Wei Shuying heard this question, she explained in detail.

    Her husband's surname was Zhang and her father-in-law had died a few years ago. Her brother, Zhang Yao, had always been a soldier, but he had died during the battle with Rongqiang. He had a daughter-in-law and a daughter. Wei Shuying's assessment of her sister-in-law was that she would do nothing.

    Wei Shuyu understood that Wei Shuying had probably said this lightly. According to what she had said before, not only did she have to serve her mother-in-law, even her eldest brother's entire family had to rely on her to take care of them.

    When she talked about her husband, Wei Shuying's voice started to tremble. Big Fortune is doing very well. It's my stomach that is disappointing. I couldn't give him a child and a woman.

    Wei Shuyu did not comment on this. She had never seen this person before, so she was not sure what to say. But to be able to insist on not marrying her for so many years under Zhang's pressure, she must also like Wei Shuying. However, in the face of his own mother's oppression of his wife, did he not help Wei Shuying for now? In the end, didn't he still choose to give up on Wei Shuying and marry someone else?

    Then how much do you know about this Fangzi? Wei Shuyu asked.

    Wei Shuying frowned, I'm not sure about that. I came back before she had even entered the door, but I heard from the matchmaker that the other party seemed to have been married off and sold to the Zhang family.

    Looks like this is a woman who doesn't have a family to support her, Wei Shuyu commented in her heart.

    That's all I know. How about Yuniang? Can she think of anything? Wei Shuying asked.

    Wei Shuyu did have an idea. I feel that your mother-in-law isn't here to borrow money from us. She's here to help us raise her and her daughter-in-law.

    When Wei Shuying heard this, she said in disbelief, No way! This kind of thing sounds too illogical.

    Hearing Wei Shuying's incredulous tone, Wei Shuyu was silent. That was because she hadn't seen how selfish a person could be.

    Zhang was now missing two sons, and no one around her had died from old age. His eldest daughter-in-law probably wouldn't be able to count on him. The new wife that she married to her second son wouldn't be of much help to her family. No matter how she thought about it, only Wei Shuying, the daughter-in-law who had served her for more than nine years and still displeased her, was able to raise her.

    Thus, Zhang packed her things and came to find Wei Shuying with a daughter-in-law with the Zhang bloodline in her belly.

    After listening to Wei Shuyu's analysis, Wei Shuying's expression seemed sad yet resentful as tears streamed down her face.

    Yuniang, what should I do? Wei Shuying complained in tears.

    Wei Shuyu sighed. If you can harden your heart, then just chase Zhang and that woman out. They have nothing to do with you anyway.

    Wei Shuying did not expect Wei Shuyu to give her such an idea. After thinking about it, she still did not have such a vicious heart. She asked softly, Then … What if I don't want to drive them away? "

    It doesn't matter. Wei Shuyu smiled. Although that old granny of yours doesn't seem like someone who can behave herself, wait for me to think of a way for her to stay put and not interfere in our family's matters.

    Wei Shuying felt grateful in her heart. Although she was older than Wei Shuyu, she unconsciously started to rely on this younger sister of hers.

    The next morning, the two of them went back to Uncle Wei's house after getting up.

    As soon as he entered, he saw Zhang sitting on the brick bed, waiting for Qiao to serve the dishes without even looking up.

    As for that woman called Fang Zi, she was still okay. They helped to carry the dishes together.

    Seeing the two people come in, Fang Zi smiled at them a little cautiously, then turned around and went into the kitchen.

    When they were eating, Zhang saw Wei Shuyu also sitting down and picking up her chopsticks. She couldn't help but frown. Why are you, an outsider, still trying to get something to eat?

    His words caused the originally mild atmosphere to tense up.

    Wei Shuying frowned and wanted to say something, but Wei Shuyu stopped her with a look.

    Zhang didn't seem to notice the change in the atmosphere as she continued to look at Wei Shuyu with furrowed brows. She already knew that Wei Shuyu was not her biological daughter at all, but the child of her brother. Zhang was even more reluctant to let her sit down as she recalled how Wei Shuyu treated her last night.

    Wei Shuyu ignored her. After sitting down, she scooped up some food and glanced at Zhang, who still wanted to continue cooking. She said coldly, If you don't want to eat, then get out.

    Zhang was instantly displeased. How uncultured. To actually talk to their elders like that.

    With a smile on her face, Wei Shuyu looked at her coldly. I don't remember having an elder like you.

    Zhang paused for a moment. She thought about it and realized that Wei Shuyu had nothing to do with her. However, she still refused to give up and turned to Qiao, Dearest relative, I'm here as a guest. You made me do this.

    If it wasn't for Uncle Wei pulling her, she would have thrown Zhang out along with her luggage long after she said the first sentence. Now that she heard Zhang's words, she didn't even dare to look him in the eye.

    CHAPTER 203 - SECOND STORE

    Zhang didn't get a reply. She was about to throw a tantrum, but when she saw everyone else starting to eat, she couldn't wait any longer. She quickly picked up her chopsticks and scooped a few big chopsticks into her bowl.

    After they finished eating, Wei Shuyu brought Wei Shuying and went to Origin Fragrance Tavern.

    On the way, Wei Shuying apologised embarrassedly to Wei Shuyu, Yuniang, I'm sorry, I didn't expect my mother-in-law to say that about you.

    It's not your fault. No need to apologize. Wei Shuyu didn't take this matter to heart either. However, it seemed that he had to find a way to make Zhang behave earlier.

    After arranging new tasks for Fu and Wei Shuying, Wei Shuyu called Steward Hee over.

    Boss, you're looking for me?

    Wei Shuyu nodded. I'm going to open another store. I've already chosen the location. She was one of the places she had been looking out for on the way back from the capital.

    In a town that was bigger than Jinshui County but not as prosperous as the capital. The reason she took a fancy to this place was because the people here loved to eat spicy dishes. She believed that once her shop was set up there, the business would be better than here. And if she could successfully plant the chili peppers, then the pot would surely taste even better.

    Wei Shuyu explained the location to him and then gave him two silver notes. She warned him repeatedly, Go there and if there is a good location and the price is suitable, set up the store. Remember to decorate exactly the same as we do here. She also planned to open a chain store, so of course the decorations couldn't be too different.

    But Steward Hee was in a difficult situation, Boss, this... I can't be sure either. When the time comes, the shop will be as big as this place. How can it be exactly the same?"

    I'm talking about the decorative style. Wei Shuyu explained, looking at the still confused Butler He. Wei Shuyu thought for a moment, How about this, after you go, if you find the shop, come back, I'll personally go with you to take a look, then draw a blueprint for you. You can follow the blueprints when you get there.

    Alright. Steward Hee nodded and replied.

    After Steward Hee left, Wei Shuyu stood up and walked to the window. She watered the precious chili sauce, but she felt like laughing in her heart. Other people had put all kinds of flowers in the house, but she was the only one.

    As for the other seeds, Wei Shuyu thought for a moment. It was almost time to sow them. Just her land alone was definitely not enough. However, if the seeds were given directly to the villagers, they might not even be willing to plant them. For crops that they had never seen before and did not know of their specific habits, they might not even be able to take good care of them.

    After some thought, Wei Shuyu decided to buy a few more plots of land to use as experimental fields.

    In the evening, Wei Shuyu told Uncle Wei and Qiao about this idea, and the result was that both of them agreed to support her. In their view, land was the root, and the more the better.

    As for the experimental fields mentioned by Wei Shuyu, as well as the crops that they had never planted before, although they didn't know much about it, Wei Shuyu had explained all these years of farming experience to them.

    If our family can grow it well, I plan to let the villagers of Jinfeng Village grow it too. She had already discussed this with the villagers when she was building the water wheel, and they would sell her the food and vegetables first.

    After Wei Shuyu finished her story, she planned to return to her room. However, when she turned around, she saw Zhang hastily retracting her head outside the door.

    Wei Shuyu walked out with a faint smile. She pretended that she wasn't eavesdropping and left without saying a word.

    Seeing Wei Shuyu leave, Zhang rolled her eyes. He then stopped Wei Shuying when she was alone in the courtyard.

    Granny … Wei Shuying whispered.

    Zhang's face darkened. Let me ask you, what are you doing with Wei Shuyu now that you're leaving early and returning late?

    Wei Shuying frowned at her unpleasant words, retorting, Yuniang is taking me to the restaurant every day to learn how to do business, and I'm a student at the moment.

    Restaurant? Zhang thought about it for a moment. Before she forced Wei Shuying to come back, she mentioned that her parents were now with a niece who opened a restaurant. However, she didn't pay much attention to it at that time.

    No wonder this little girl could act so arrogantly in front of her own family. Zhang snorted coldly, thinking that she had found the answer.

    What is she doing in the restaurant? Zhang asked.

    Wei Shuying didn't know what she was thinking, so she pondered for a moment before replying carefully, Calculating what it would cost to earn money every day.

    Calculate? Zhang's eyes lit up. Can I touch the silver taels?

    Wei Shuying was alarmed. There's a special accountant in the restaurant. I'm just doing an accounting for him.

    Zhang's face immediately fell. Truly useless.

    Wei Shuying didn't seem to have any reaction. She was obviously used to Zhang's slandering towards her. She said in a low voice, If nothing happens to Grandma, I'll be going in first.

    Zhang waved her hand and said in a bored tone, Let's go.

    That night, Wei Shuying still slept with Wei Shuyu. She told Wei Shuyu that Zhang had come to find her.

    I don't mind telling her the truth next time she asks you. She wanted to see what Zhang was planning.

    The next day, Wei Shuyu started looking for suitable land to sell.

    Jiang Rann came over just in time. Seeing that she was busy, he raised his eyebrows: You want to buy land?

    Yes, I intend to plant the seeds Steward Hee brought back this year. Wei Shuyu explained.

    Jiang Rann looked at the various seeds that she placed on the table. He picked up a bag of seeds that he didn't recognize and asked her: You know how to plant all these? What is it?

    Wei Shuyu introduced them to him one by one. When she heard about the yield of the corn, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. Afraid that she had misheard her words, she purposely asked again, Tell me, how much is the yield of this corn per mu?

    Corn was a high-yielding crop, but Wei Shuyu didn't know if the current amount of corn could reach 800 pounds per mu, so she replied conservatively, I'm not sure, but it should reach more than 500 kilograms per mu.

    Jiang Rann's expression turned serious. If it was really like Wei Shuyu said, then why would he worry about not eating enough food in the future? This yield is several times that of rice.

    Jiang Rann pondered for a long time, then said seriously to Wei Shuyu, Shuyu, can I ask you for a favor?

    A trace of surprise flashed across Wei Shuyu's eyes. Jiang Rann rarely asked her for help, so he nodded: Sure, go ahead.

    I'll provide you with a good field. If this corn is really grown, can you not say anything? Jiang Rann explained.

    Wei Shuyu looked puzzled. Don't you want the people to stop starving?

    CHAPTER 204 - MISSING

    Jiang Rann smiled: Of course I hope so, but I also don't want to give the enemy the easy way.

    Wei Shuyu's mind raced as she wondered who his enemy was.

    Don't worry, if the corn production is really that high, I will give it to the people. Jiang Rann continued.

    However, there aren't many seeds in the corn. This year, a large portion of it has to be planted for cultivation.

    No problem, I'm not in a hurry. At least for the next year, he did not intend to confront Yan Xulin and Feng Yueze directly. I will inform you when I find a suitable land.

    Alright. Wei Shuyu nodded.

    When they returned at night, Wei Shuyu couldn't help but ask Qiao when she noticed something bad on her face, Auntie, what happened?

    Qiao looked into the room and saw that Zhang and that woman were both not there. She snorted and whispered, It's still not that Zhang. Why don't you try asking your uncle and me about how much money your restaurant can earn in one day and how much money we can earn? She gave us advice on the land you mentioned yesterday. If you don't give us a few mu of land, we won't help you grow it! "

    Qiao frowned in confusion. What do you think she's doing? Isn't she trying to ruin our relationship?

    I'm afraid I'm trying to get something out of it, Wei Shuyu thought. Seeing that she had been asking about restaurants and money these past few days, it was most likely that she wanted money.

    Although people like Zhang have not done any harm to you, they are like flies that have landed on food. You can't hit them and can only drive them away, but can you still eat the food left behind after being chased away?

    But at the moment, she had yet to make time to deal with Zhang's matters.

    Two days later, Steward Hee came back with the land deed.

    Because this was the second store Wei Shuyu was going to open, she did not choose to stay too far away from the Jinshui County. This way, they could look after each other and not steal from each other because they were too close to each other.

    Boss, this is the location that I've chosen. Steward Hee passed the land deed to Wei Shuyu.

    Mm. I'll go with you when I'm ready. She decided to bring Steward Hee and Fu Lian along, then teach them how to decorate the building. It would be similar to the style of Origin Fragrance Tavern now, so she wouldn't have to open every shop in the future, and would have to go personally.

    Because the distance was not far, they only spent three days to go back and forth.

    After Wei Shuyu went to see the location, she came back and began to design the layout of the new store.

    Wei Shuyu returned home with the deed to the new store. Just as she was about to open the cabinet, she touched the lock and frowned.

    What happened to Yuniang? Wei Shuying asked.

    In the two days I've been away, other than you, has anyone else entered my house? After she left, Wei Shuying stayed here every day, which was why she asked.

    During these two days, I went to the Origin Fragrance Tavern during the day, and no one else came to rest here during the night. Furthermore, during the day, I had to make sure that the door was locked before I left. Wei Shuying answered.

    That's strange … Wei Shuyu muttered to herself as she began to carefully examine the corpse. The cabinet was intact, but when she checked the lock, she found something different. There were some indistinct scratches on the lock. Apparently, someone had used some kind of method to open it.

    Wei Shuyu lightly knocked the lock against the table and poured out a few powdery particles. She went to the door again to check the lock, but that was not the case with the lock.

    The lock she used to lock the cabinet was the kind of reed lock that she had in her own hand.

    Wei Shuying, who had also seen her movements, was alarmed. Did something go missing?

    I suspect that this cabinet has been opened. Wei Shuyu explained as she opened the cabinet to check it to see if there were any missing items.

    After Wei Shuying heard this, she carefully recalled the events of the past two days, then a scene suddenly flashed across her mind. She said with uncertainty, These two days, that woman called Fangzi will come over to talk to me alone every day when I'm going to sleep.

    You talked about it in the house?

    Wei Shuying shook her head. No, we are in the courtyard. Then, he suddenly thought of a detail. Right, because I'm in the courtyard, even though I close the door, it isn't locked. Could it be that someone came in at that time?

    Very likely. Wei Shuyu frowned.

    Could it be Fangzi? Coming to talk to Wei Shuyu when she wasn't around, now that he thought about it, this behavior was too suspicious.

    Not her, but she must know something. In fact, she had already guessed who it was.

    I'll go ask her! After all, this was caused by her negligence.

    No need, let's rest first. I'll ask for myself tomorrow. Wei Shuyu said calmly before she turned around and left.

    The next day.

    Wei Shuyu saw Fang Zi fetching water in the courtyard, so she walked up behind her and whispered, The reason Zhang told you to lure Wei Shuying away was to steal my land deed, right?

    Fang Zi was startled, and the bucket she had just picked up fell back into the well with a splash.

    Fang Zi turned her head and looked at Wei Shuyu nervously. Seeing her expression, Wei Shuyu understood what was going on and no longer wanted to make things difficult for this weak woman.

    When it was time to eat, Fangzi kept using her eyes to look at Wei Shuyu, but after the meal, she didn't see any reaction, so she couldn't help but to let out a sigh of relief.

    However, just as he was about to take his bowl out to wash, he heard a voice from behind him, Everyone, don't leave in a hurry. I have something to ask you. Wei Ze, close the door tight.

    Wei Ze responded and quickly closed the door. He then stood at the door.

    When Zhang saw this, a trace of nervousness flashed across her face, but she soon forced herself to remain calm.

    The other members of the Wei family did not have any objections as they sat back down.

    Wei Shuyu intentionally looked at Fang Zi, who could not hide the truth. Seeing that she was looking at Zhang, she wanted to say something but hesitated.

    Yesterday, when I came back, I noticed that someone had stolen the land deed for Origin Fragrance Tavern. Wei Shuyu didn't keep them in suspense. Her first sentence surprised Uncle Wei and Qiao.

    Did you find it?

    How can a good deed be stolen?

    Uncle Wei and Qiao asked at the same time.

    I'm also very suspicious. After all, land deeds are useless. At the same time, the owner of the land deeds has to sign and pledge it. Only then can it be sold to others, otherwise it would just be a pile of waste paper. Wei Shuyu said.

    After Zhang heard this, she half-closed her eyes and said uninterestedly, You can't blame anyone for not keeping it properly for yourself. However, this has nothing to do with me. I have to go out to the county today.

    CHAPTER 205 - TRUE OR FALSE

    Don't be in such a hurry to leave yet. Wei Shuyu stopped Zhang from leaving. Why don't you listen to what I have to say next?

    Zhang looked at Wei Ze, who was blocking the door, and Wei Shuyu, who was blocking her. She snorted and sat back down. What else do you want to say?

    Wei Shuyu smiled and took out a land deed from her bosom. She spread it on the table and said, But luckily, the one I left in the cabinet was written wrongly and became invalid. It was really left in the pot in the corner of the room.

    Uncle Wei and Qiao instantly heaved a sigh of relief. Qiaoyu complained, but her expression was relaxed, Tell me earlier. Look at how frightened I am and your uncle.

    When Zhang heard this, she was stunned for a moment before blurting out, Impossible! Only then did he realize that he had lost his composure. Trying to maintain a calm appearance, he snatched the land deed from the table. Let me see.

    But when he looked at it, this was indeed the land deed for Origin Fragrance Tavern. A flash of disbelief appeared in Zhang's eyes. The contents of the card she had secretly stolen were clearly the same! However, due to the lack of time, she only roughly looked through it before putting it away and leaving Wei Shuyu's room, unsure of what exactly was wrong with it.

    When he thought back, Wei Shuyu's room did indeed have a broken jar in the corner. But who would have thought that the real land deed was there, and all her attention was placed on the locked cabinet!

    Zhang gritted her teeth as she silently cursed Wei Shuyu for being too shrewd. These two days, she ordered Fang Zi to find a way to lure Wei Shuying out of her room every night before she went to bed. The purpose of this order was to find this land deed.

    The first night, she sneaked in and found the locked cabinet on the kang. After carefully examining the lock, she prepared the items. The next night she opened the cabinet, found the land deed and took it away.

    Seeing Zhang's obvious reaction, everyone in the room understood this time.

    Zhang, did you steal Yuniang's land deed? Qiao asked.

    You are slandering me! Zhang retorted, What evidence do you have to prove that I took her land deed? Besides, she didn't lose anything.

    You … Qiao was a little exasperated. If it weren't for the fact that Yuniang left a trump card, do you really think that the land deed wouldn't have been taken by you?

    Zhang wasn't fooled by her words. I didn't get it, it's just this land deed. It's the first time I've seen it today.

    Wei Shuyu took out a silver ingot from her pocket. I'm curious though, why did you steal my land deed for no reason. If you tell me, this silver will belong to you. If you don't say … Wei Shuyu's face turned cold. I'll throw you out!

    Zhang's heart skipped a beat. She looked at the ugly expressions of the Wei Family members and lowered her head in consideration. If the land deed in her hand was fake, then the benefits promised to her by the previous person would definitely not be redeemed. Now that she had no one to take care of her, and was chased out of the Wei family, she could only return to her old village.

    He then looked at the silver on the table and made a decision. If I say it, you can't kick me out.

    Sure.

    Zhang put the silver on the table into her pocket. I went to the county a few days ago and someone stopped me. He said that as long as I can think of a way to obtain the title deed to the Origin Fragrance Tavern, he would give me fifty silver taels and also give me a place to stay in the county city.

    Wei Shuyu's heart skipped a beat. Then you've already passed the fake land deed to that person?

    Zhang glanced at Wei Shuyu resentfully and curled her lips, Not yet. She had intended to go to the man today.

    Wei Shuyu felt relieved and asked, Do you know the other party's identity?

    I don't know. Zhang replied.

    Then do you really believe that person will give you the benefits according to the agreement?

    He already gave me 10 silver coins, so it's not like I'm losing out. Zhang said indifferently.

    After Wei Shuyu heard this, she snorted coldly. Zhang was indeed not at a loss, and this land deed wasn't hers. Even if the other party didn't give her the rest of the items, she would still earn ten taels of silver for free.

    Wei Shuyu lightly tapped her finger on the table as she thought of a countermeasure. A moment later, Wei Shuyu raised her head. Don't you want a place to stay? I can arrange one for you. In addition, I can give you two acres of land for free.

    Zhang's eyes lit up, but then she thought about the house and the land in her house. What she lacked was not this, but rather the money that no one could support her.

    Wei Shuyu looked at his expression and said, Also, I will hire two people to serve you. How about that?

    This time, Zhang was moved. If she could live her own life, she didn't want to be with this annoying family every day.

    What request do you have? Zhang asked.

    In a while, you're still going to meet that person with the fake title deed. Tell him that you've successfully stolen it.

    Zhang was surprised, but she soon understood what Wei Shuyu was trying to do. No way, if they find out, won't they be looking for trouble with me?

    Don't worry, you can pretend that you don't know that the land deed is fake when it is exposed, and we won't tell anyone that you already know. Wei Shuyu said. Seeing that Zhang was still unwilling, her tone turned serious, If you don't do it, not only will you not reap any benefits, I'll even drag you into the government! You can choose what exactly you want.

    Zhang was furious, but she could do nothing but nod. Alright, I promise you.

    Hmm, give me your fake land deed first. I'll make some preparations. Wei Shuyu said calmly.

    Zhang did not suspect anything. She turned around and entered the house she was currently living in. Not long later, she returned with a land deed.

    Wei Shuyu took a careful look at the land deed and felt relieved. It was indeed the one she had lost.

    Wei Shuyu kept the land deed quietly and said to the others, Wait for me.

    Returning to her own room, Wei Shuyu took out the land deed from her bosom and placed it in a wooden box with her. Then she walked to the kitchen and buried it in a corner, leaving no trace behind.

    She couldn't be blamed for being so careful, because the land deed she got back from Zhang was indeed real. She had placed it in the locked cabinet and thought it would be safe, but she didn't expect that someone would steal it anyway.

    Based on what had happened previously, she guessed that Zhang had done it, but she wasn't sure why. Therefore, she had specially found someone to forge a fake land deed yesterday to test Zhang.

    In the end, she was indeed very lucky. Zhang didn't even have the time to hand over the real land deed over before she was able to swindle the real land deed back.

    After finishing all these things, Wei Shuyu took out the land deed that she purposely forged yesterday. The reason why this was fake was because the handprint on it wasn't hers, but was something she told Fu Lian to press.

    CHAPTER 206 - MANOR

    After folding the land deed, Wei Shuyu returned to Uncle Wei's home. He passed the land deed to Zhang. Remember, this is the one you stole previously. Don't expose yourself. If not, I will not lose anything and you will be humiliated by the other party.

    Zhang was also clear that she was in the same boat as Wei Shuyu. After taking the land deed, she put it away in her arms. She looked at Wei Ze who was standing at the door and snorted. Can I leave now?

    Wei Ze glanced at Wei Shuyu.

    Let her out. Wei Shuyu said.

    Zhang waited for Wei Ze to make way before she left in a hurry.

    Yuniang, can she do as you say?
