I was a stepmother in ancient times, and I led my whole family to wealth.

Chapter 325 Brothers meet



Chapter 325 Brothers meet

Unfortunately, the land had already been given to Gu Chenglin, and he was driven out of that area.

He was dissatisfied, but more than that, he was jealous.

No one except Li Mulin was allowed to enter that area. The day before yesterday, he overheard Li Mulin saying that Gu Chenglin had succeeded.

How can it be?

I've heard that as long as the rice seedlings are planted in the paddy field, pass through the safe period, and grow strong after taking root, then it's considered a true success.

He's just jealous. What right does Gu Chenglin have?

He's so young, there's no way the experiment could have succeeded!

That day, he went to Li Mulin's room to look for evidence, because Li Mulin followed Gu Chenglin every day, and he kept a notebook to record Gu Chenglin's daily activities in the fields.

After arriving here, he discovered that Li Mulin lived next door to Gu Chenglin.

So he dug a small hole in the wall, wanting to know what secret Gu Chenglin had about growing rice.

He never expected to witness Gu Chenglin tear off his human skin mask, so he concluded that Gu Chenglin had a secret.

Gu Yunxiao looked at Cangying. This person is Prince Chen's man, the son-in-law?

Could it be that Prince Dun's daughter has been found?

"Your name is Gu Chenglin?"

Gu Chenglin nodded naturally: "Gu Chenglin".

She was neither humble nor arrogant, but calm and composed, without any nervousness or fear of what he might ask.

He is no longer afraid of those things. Now he has the power to fight, and his son and daughter are able to protect themselves.

There was also a daughter-in-law with great abilities.

Furthermore, he had Prince Dun as his father-in-law and a powerful backer.

And they have no shortage of financial resources.

Even if things escalate, His Majesty the Emperor will surely still think of them.

Gu Yunxiao stared at Gu Chenglin's familiar face for a long time with his cold and indifferent face.

A fleeting look of shock and admiration crossed his eyes.

"You and Feng..." What is their relationship?

He didn't ask the rest of the question, but he believed that Gu Chenglin knew what he was going to say.

Gu Chenglin sneered and, without any attempt to hide anything, said directly, "It was a gift from my uncle."

After speaking, Gu Chenglin stared at him, watching for any changes in his expression.

He really wanted to know if his older brother was as bad as the rumors suggested.

Gu Yunxiao's eyes widened in disbelief: "Your uncle? The Ningguo Duke's Mansion is your maternal family?"

Seeing his surprised expression, Gu Chenglin genuinely laughed; this guy really was stupid.

He finally understood what his wife had said; she really wasn't very smart.

With that face of his, and speaking so clearly, how could he... tsk tsk tsk...

"Yes."

Fortunately, Gu Chenglin readily admitted that after he finished speaking, no one spoke except for the rustling of the wind.

Feng Lei and Cangying looked at Gu Yunxiao with disdain.

What did this guy eat to grow up like this? He's so slow-witted.

Gu Chenglin explained it so clearly, yet he still has that Rongguo Gong-like face. This guy is so slow-witted.

Gu Yunxiao stared at Gu Chenglin. This guy was looking at him like that, but he wasn't angry at all. What was going on?

Uncle? When did his maternal grandfather have a daughter?

Uncle? He looks so much like his father, could it be...?

Do not……

No, Uncle!

Yes, Uncle, he definitely knows something.

He glanced at Gu Chenglin one last time, then turned and walked to his horse, leaping onto the saddle and riding away without looking back.

The imperial guards looked at this one and that one, and finally left as well.

When they left, they also took Cao Xingwang with them.

Li Mulin walked over and looked at Gu Chenglin with some guilt: "Chenglin, it was my fault."

Gu Chenglin stepped forward to help him as he was about to bow, saying, "Thank you for your trust, Master Li."

I'm all ready here, just waiting for everyone to arrive so we can start transplanting rice seedlings.

Once all the seedlings have recovered, there's nothing more for me to do here.

However, this Master Cao is a bit impatient.

Li Mulin stared at Gu Chenglin's familiar face, his mind filled with countless thoughts. Was this the secret behind his wearing of the human skin mask?

Doesn't he want to acknowledge his ancestors and return to his roots?

Even if he is an illegitimate son, he is still an illegitimate son of the Rongguo Duke's Mansion.

Gu Chenglin stared at Gu Yunxiao, who was riding his horse further and further away, and sneered. He was probably eager to find his uncle to confirm it now.

Haha, I'm really looking forward to seeing him again and seeing what he's like.

"No problem, Farmer Li. We will start transplanting the seedlings tomorrow or the day after."

Li Mulin immediately said, "That won't do. His Majesty said he wants to personally observe the rice planting. You see..."

Cangying then spoke up: "Your subordinate has already sent a message to His Majesty."

Upon hearing this, Li Mulin breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good."

Gu Chenglin looked up at the sky. It seemed that his cousin, the emperor, would not receive the letter. It would take at least three days to arrive by carrier pigeon.

He believed that his wife had the auspicious reminder and the auspicious blanket, and that she would probably arrive in the capital in the next day or two.

……

Lingwu Mountain, valley.

After finishing their barbecue and digging up a lot of medicinal herbs, everyone returned to Lingwu Village on a lucky blanket.

That evening, Dongfang Jin entered the space, and Ruyi brought her a plate of Star Spirit Grapes and handed it to her: "Here, have some. After you finish eating, we'll sit on the Ruyi Blanket and I'll show you the other parts of our territory."

Dongfang Jin, holding a bowl of grapes, said, "Let's go, we'll eat together. I'll eat them on the Ruyi Carpet."

She also wanted to see what the entire Ruyi Realm was like.

Ruyi took out the Ruyi Blanket: "Let's go."

Dongfang Jin sat on the Ruyi Carpet, eating while looking at the scenery below. She was surprised to find that the sky here was also blue.

These rolling mountains resemble giant dragons coiled around their bases.

"I didn't expect this place to be so big."

Dongfang Jin looked around curiously and saw a lake in the distance that was shimmering with a strange light. The lake water was sparkling and the plants around the shore were exuding a faint spiritual energy.

"What lake is that?" Dongfang Jin asked.

Ruyi smiled and said, "That is the Spirit Crystal Lake. The water in the lake is rich in spiritual energy."

The lake serves as the water source for all the plants here.

"See that lake over there? It's the source of water for the entire Ruyi Realm. The Five Elements Spring in the You Ran Ju rockery is the essence of all the water sources in the Ruyi Realm."

Dongfang Jin pointed to another body of water near the mountains: "You mean that sea is a lake?"

Does this guy have some misunderstanding about lakes?

She couldn't deny that Lingjing Lake here was a lake.

But over there...

Ruyi looked at her, her mockery obvious: "You didn't mistake that lake for the sea, did you?"

"Isn't it?"

"Jin-jie, the sea is boundless, this..."

Dongfang Jin hurriedly interrupted it: "Alright, this is the lake, let's continue exploring."

As one wishes……

Uninformed!

After touring around, Dongfang Jin really broadened his horizons; he never imagined that the Ruyi Realm was so vast.

It's almost as big as City B.

Ruyi said that this is not the complete Ruyi Realm.

hard to imagine!

Looking at the courtyard house next to her villa, Youranju is located in a corner of the outer courtyard of the courtyard house.

This is truly unbelievable.

"Give me a teleportation bead, I want to go see Gu Jingye and his sister."

Ruyi took out a teleportation bead and handed it to her: "Jin-jie, isn't it time for your man to plant rice seedlings?"

Dongfang Jin took the teleportation bead: "Is it time?"

"The dates are about right."

"Tomorrow I'll ask my adoptive father when they're going back. If they're waiting to harvest the wheat, I'll just use the teleportation bead to go to the capital."

"fair enough."

When Dongfang Jin arrived at the house in Wenlan Lane, Anyang Prefecture, the lights were still on.

Jun Wenhui came out carrying a plate of fruit and saw Dongfang Jin standing in the courtyard.

"Xiao Jin, you're here! Have you eaten?" Jun Wenhui asked with delight.

"Aunt Hui, I'm here! How are you all?"

"Xiao Jin, what's wrong with you...?"

"Aunt Hui, I've come to see the stone."

When Gu Jingye heard Grandma Jun call out his mother's name, he put down his book and ran out.

Standing at the doorway, one hand on the doorframe, a look of joy on his face: "Little Mother!"

He hadn't seen his mother for some time; the last time she came was when she escorted his father to the capital.
