e case is being re-examined.Ripple stood at the front line of watching the drama unfold, constantly paying attention to developments. The Wei family was having a rough time this time; some of the thin..."Mr. Yao is ruthless, what happened"

Before he could be formally interrogated, Master Yao died. When the coroner performed an autopsy, it was discovered that Master Yao had been poisoned by a slow-acting poison. This left Yao Dajun speechless and his reputation tarnished. In the end, he could only give up his title and leave Kyoto, returning to Wangshan Town with Dong Qinglian.

Until Dong Qinglian raised her own child, the child was intelligent and resourceful. By his own ability, he took step by step back to Kyoto, the center of power, and became a third-rank official when he was fifty years old.

He only knew that his biological mother was Dong Qinglian's personal maid and had saved Dong Qinglian's life. However, she unfortunately died from heavy bleeding after giving birth to him. He didn't know anything else.

The stone mill continued,

“He's already been appointed to the third rank, I don't believe he can't see through this scheme. It's just that he doesn't have much of a relationship with his biological mother, Dong Qinglian is devoted to him wholeheartedly, and because he was raised by Dong Qinglian, he is considered the legitimate son. This identity is important, it allows him to inherit the Yao family legitimately, after all, even a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. He has no losses, so he acquiesces to Dong Qinglian's words.”

Ripples spoke plainly.

"Hehehe! Knowing something but not saying anything! Anyway, that child won't come out of your belly now, and even Young Master Yao might not inherit the Yao family. These things won't happen."

Knowing Liàn Yī's style of doing things, Shí Jiù could guess what she would do.

“Alright! For the comfort of my future life, this letter and jade pendant can't be delivered to Master Yao for now. We should wait until Dong Qinglian marries into Kyoto. Otherwise, if she finds out that Young Master Yao is not the heir, Miss Dong Er will definitely find a way to break off the engagement.”

"Understood."

Liàn Yī decided to put the letter, jade pendant, and gold all into her spatial storage. That way, no one would be able to steal them. Fortunately, there was a faint trace of spiritual energy here, otherwise, she wouldn't even be able to open her spatial storage, let alone use it.

A spring breeze had blown for a week, turning Mount Bowl Mouth green. Then the farmers started tilling the soil and planting. Song Daca and Zhang Huiniang were both busy. They didn't want to let Lianyi go down into the fields, so they just had her stay home to watch Tiger Cub, and she also helped cook lunch and dinner. Lianyi was happy to do it.

Taking care of children and cooking is no easy feat. And because it's spring planting season, her energy levels are depleted. So, Lian Yi decided that every meal had to be plentiful and meaty. If Zhang Hui Niang were to cook, she definitely wouldn't spare the expense. That's why Lian Yi took over the cooking duties.

On the first day, after breakfast, Zhang Huiniang and Song Dachuan took their tools to the fields. After the land thawed, they had already weeded it once. Now, they were going to turn the soil twice more before planting. They had three mu of purchased land plus two mu of wasteland they had cleared, for a total of five mu of land. This would keep the couple busy for a while.

Lian Yi made a plentiful lunch, with steamed white rice, stir-fried pork with cabbage, pickled vegetables stewed with fish, and an egg flower soup. After packing the dishes and bowls, she carried her son Tiger on her back and a basket of food to the field.

When Zhang Hui's mother and Song Dachuan saw the meal that Lian Yi had brought, they both felt a pang of pity.

"You, child, only have one bag of rice left. Why don't you save some That's for you and Huzi to eat."

Chang Hui-niang scolded.

"Mother, you and father have worked hard in the fields. These few days, you must eat well no matter what, otherwise your body will wear down and you'll need to spend money on medicine later. That wouldn't be cost-effective, would it"

Ripple said, her hands already moving quickly to ladle half bowls of egg drop soup for the two of them first, warming their insides. Then she packed white rice tightly into their bowls and passed them to Hui Niang and Song Dachuan.

"Alright, don't keep nagging. The kids are just worried about you and me. I'll buy them more after we finish this."

Song Dachuan was quite open-minded and started eating heartily.

"Mother, just listen to Father, quickly taste how the dish I cooked today tastes"

Have you and Tiger eaten yet

"I and Huzǐ ate a little, he was clamouring to send rice to father and mother, so we came over first. There is still rice and vegetables at home, you can eat with peace of mind."

Ripple gently placed Tiger cub on the ground, letting him walk by himself. The recent care and attention had given Tiger cub strength in his legs.

After hearing the ripples’ words, Zhang Huiniang didn't hesitate any longer. She ate heartily and even praised her daughter for cooking such delicious stir-fried vegetables.

Ripples thought, with so much oil and meat, how could it not be fragrant!

Not long after the couple finished their meal, while they were still sipping on the remaining egg drop soup, Song Dajie came over.

Although Song Dachuan had little contact with the old Song family after the split, Song Dahai's visit clearly had a purpose, so he stood up to greet him.

"Big brother, why are you here at this time Is there something wrong with Mom and Dad"

"Da Chuan, has Da Shan come to see you these days"

Song Dahai asked directly.

"No! What happened to him"

"Don't mention it, he hasn't been home for five or six days."

Song Dahai frowned tightly. Everyone was busy with spring planting, but Song Dashi had disappeared. Lao Song shi was worried and insisted on him going out to look for him. This would delay things, so his tone was not very good either.

"Humph! Every time there's work to be done, he does this. I bet he's hiding again to avoid doing his share."

When Song Dachuan heard it was about Big Mountain, his expression softened a few points and he didn't even open his mouth to say he would help find someone.

"Ugh! My little brother is spoiled rotten! He's so grown up, and he still acts like this every time."

Song Dahai wasn't happy either. After asking Song Dachi, he felt like he had finished his task and left directly.

Ripples watched the other party leave, a sneer curled at the corner of her lips. This time, Song Dashan was gone forever.

This was just a small incident, and it passed like that. After Mr. Song and his wife had planted all five mu of land, it rained, thoroughly watering the fields. Mr. Song was very happy, saying that God was pitying the farming families and helping them by watering their fields. This would ensure that all the seeds they planted would sprout smoothly.

Two days later, someone came to visit Song Dachuan's house. She was a woman who was very close to Zhang Huiniang. Lianyi called her Aunt Meng, although she was only thirty-five years old.

Aunt Meng brought them the latest news from Lao Song's family.

"My sister-in-law, who married into Songjia Village, told me that Song Dashi has run away because he owes money. She also said that he is a scoundrel who stole someone's jade pendant and account books, and was confronted by the owner. The owner turned his house upside down, even uprooting trees in the yard to look for them. Everyone in the village went to watch the commotion."

"Huh Really"

Zhang Hui Niang was also very surprised.

"Of course it's true, they even brought along the yamen officers!"

"Luckily, our master parted ways with them, otherwise we would have been implicated and forced to help the younger brother pay off his debts!"

Zhang Hui'ni patted her chest and immediately said.

"Who said it wasn't Anyway, they made quite a scene. In the end, they didn't find anything. They just took all of Song Family's silver and left Old Song with the IOU signed by Song Dashi. Old Song fainted right there."

"Why isn't Song Dashan showing his face given the situation"

"No! He must be hiding!"

At this moment, Song Dachuan was carrying a bundle of firewood into the yard. Hearing the last two sentences, he asked:

"Is the big mountain still hiding" than Ripples. They have been beaten up quite a few times by Ripples, so they are ranked below her. However, towards people like Raven and Morgan, they don't show much respect, after all, the two of t...
