Blessed Daughter

Indeed, Xu Heyou couldn't bear the disputes he was involved in, and he really didn't dare to have too much interaction with him so hastily.

While Chu Lan was aware of her recklessness, she was also deeply aware of her multiple gaffes on Xu Heyou.

If it was normal, he shouldn't be so thoughtless, he should have considered these things in advance.

Chu Lan looked at Wei Ruo, but didn't come back to her senses for a long time.

Wei Ruo couldn't see his face, so he couldn't guess what he was thinking at the moment from his expression.

"Sorry, I was reckless." Chu Lan apologized to Wei Ruo solemnly.

Seeing his apology, Wei Ruo didn't say anything more.

"I have something else to do, so I won't chat with you."

After Wei Ruo finished speaking, he turned and entered Zhuangzi.

This time Chu Lan didn't stop him again, and after Wei Ruo entered Zhuangzi, Chu Lan also left with her own people.

Back in Zhuangzi, Wei Ruo's face was still calm.

"Miss, are you still upset about Young Master Zhu? It's wrong for him to deceive Miss, but this servant doesn't look like he's a person who doesn't know what to do and wants to avenge Miss." Xiumei comforted Wei Ruo.

"Meimei, the time and place of Zhu Zongyu's injury is too coincidental, I have been reluctant to think about the relationship between them." Wei Ruo said.

"What coincidence?" Xiumei was puzzled.

"The time when Zhu Zongyu was injured was almost the same as the time when the Seventh Prince was injured, and the time when he left Zhuangzi was also almost the same as the time when the Seventh Prince was found." Wei Ruo said.

"No way, then...that person is..." Xiumei covered her mouth with her hands in surprise.

Didn't that lady become the Seventh Prince's savior? It's just that the Seventh Prince didn't know that the person who saved him was their lady.

"It's very possible. I'll confirm it, but I don't want to. It's just that in the future, the farther we stay away from him, the better." Wei Ruo, her dislike for Chu Lan is engraved in her bones.

Wei Ruo didn't know about Chu Lan's attack and injury when she rescued Zhu Zongyu, but when she knew about it, she immediately encountered the plague, and she didn't have time to think about it.

Later, when he met Zhu Zongyu again in Wangcun, his posture and clothes revealed his unusual identity. At that time, Wei Ruo felt a strong hostility towards him in his heart.

Wei Ruo knew that this hostility was not just because of his deception to her, but also because she had thought of another possibility in her heart.

It's just that she doesn't want to confirm it, because the thing has already happened, and it's useless to prove it, it's just adding trouble to herself.

Xiumei nodded obediently, and then asked: "Then... will your identity be discovered, Miss?"

Wei Ruodao: "I can only hope that he won't investigate. If he investigates carefully, he will definitely be able to find out."

The identity of Xu Heyou does not exist, Zhuangzi's real master is Wei Qingruo, this matter can be hidden from ordinary people, but it cannot be hidden from the Seventh Prince. As long as he wants to check, her identity will definitely be exposed.

Because it is not something that he can control, Wei Ruo does not intend to continue to worry about it.

Wei Ruo didn't see Zhu Zongyu again in the next few days, it seemed that he had listened to what she said that day.

Then Wei Ruo also heard that the Sixth Prince sent people to ambush and attack the Seventh Prince in the capital. He was punished, dismissed from his post, and confined in his mansion.

Naturally, it was the news that the Seventh Prince had officially come to the barracks to report. He arrived months later than expected because of injuries sustained in the attack.

In addition, Wei Ruo heard an unconfirmed rumor that an old case in the capital was about to be overturned. It seems to be related to Xu Guogong, the mother's family of Empress Xu who died many years ago.

And these things have nothing to do with Wei Ruo, she just listened to the excitement, and she still focused on her own career.

Wei Ruo's visits to Shitou Village have become more frequent recently. Firstly, there are more places that need her in the brewery, and secondly, because of her replacement of seedlings.

Under Shi Dayou's insistence, nearly two-thirds of the seedlings in Shitou Village were replanted, and the remaining one-third was judged by Shi Dayou to be all right.

After getting along with each other, Wei Ruo learned from the villagers that the reason why Shi Dayou became the village head at a young age is because he once saved the villagers of Shitou Village. Everyone saved the fallen rice, so they are deeply loved and trusted by the villagers.

So this time, Shi Dayou felt that there was something wrong with the seedlings, and the villagers also chose to believe him, and worked hard with him to raise the seedlings again.

Although everyone's workload has increased, everyone has no complaints in order to have a good harvest this year and not go hungry.

During the time spent wandering around Stone Village, Wei Ruo made another unexpected discovery.

Moso bamboo is planted on a mountain near Stone Village, and bamboo fungus grows in the bamboo forest, which is a rare delicacy.

When Wei Ruo asked the villagers, they didn't know that it was an edible fungus, they just regarded it as a snake egg that hurt people, and not only didn't pick it, but destroyed it casually.

This made Wei Ruo shout violently.

As long as the ugly black skin is peeled off, the fresh and white bamboo fungus is inside, which is a delicacy.

Wei Ruo told the villagers about this, but the villagers didn't believe it.

"Master Xu, you say this white thing is a delicacy?"

Everyone had expressions of disbelief.

"If you don't believe me, I'll make a dish for you to try." Wei Ruo planned to demonstrate it to the villagers without proof.

So Wei Ruo and Shi Dayou borrowed the kitchen, and took Xiumei to cook two dishes with bamboo fungus.

One is scrambled eggs with bamboo shoots; the other is bamboo fungus soup.

The cooking methods of these two are not complicated, because the bamboo fungus itself is very delicious, and too much cooking will only destroy the original flavor of the food.

After the two dishes were finished, Wei Ruoduan took them to the yard.

At this time, many people surrounded Shi Dayou's house, besides Shi Dayou and his wife and children, there were also several villagers from the village.

They all heard what Wei Ruo said about the snake eggs on the mountain as a delicacy and came to see the truth.

Seeing that everyone still didn't believe it, Wei Ruo tasted two dishes in front of everyone.

Seeing that Wei Ruo had eaten all of it, the others were relieved and came forward one after another to share some to eat.

In this era without MSG, the umami taste of fungi is very stimulating to the taste buds.

And Wei Ruo and Xiumei's cooking skills are excellent, simple home cooking can also make wonderful taste.

The villagers who usually eat a rough diet showed amazed expressions after eating Wei Ruo's two dishes.

They now completely believe that the thing they have despised for many generations as a snake egg is indeed a treasure.

Shi Dayou said with emotion: "It's a pity that these things don't grow enough on the mountain, and they can't fill your stomach like rice noodles."
