Chapter 160 Doubt
On the other side, Shang Wan drove the bullock cart as fast as he could, and it was still past dinner time when he got home.
Gao Yan and Shi Tou cooked the lunch meal together. They originally thought that Shang Wan would not come back to eat, but Lu Chengjing asked him to save the meal.
I had some clear soup noodles in the morning. Shang was running back and forth in the evening and was already hungry.
At this moment, I miss the caring little Huan very much. Every time she goes into the city, she will prepare snacks to fill her stomach.
Shang Wan asked while eating: "Did nothing happen at home? How is Xiaohuan's situation?"
"Everything is fine at home. Xiaohuan woke up and ate something. I went to Yuan's house to get some medicine for her. Xiaohuan fell asleep after drinking the medicine and is still awake now."
Seeing that Shang Wan was eating in a hurry, Lu Chengjing was worried that she would choke, so he took a bowl and filled her with a bowl of cabbage soup.
Since the bountiful harvest of Chinese cabbage, cabbage soup has become an essential dish on the table.
After Shang Wan's meal slowed down, Lu Chengjing asked, "How about the escort agency?"
"The escort agency is escorting a batch of medicinal materials to Maocheng, and we happened to be on the way. I spent a tael of silver and gave them the letter."
"Have you ever seen Sang Qi?"
"Yes." Shang Wan put down the soup bowl and thought of Sang Qi's face, and couldn't help but sigh, "This is the first time in my life that I have seen someone with such a square face."
Hearing what Shang Wan said, Lu Chengjing couldn't help but wonder what kind of face Sang Qi had that made Shang Wan sigh like this.
"I'll draw it for you later." Shang Wan said, "I not only saw Sang Qi, but also Lu Chengyuan."
Lu Chengjing was stunned for a moment, his eyes gradually turning cold.
Shang Wanquan pretended that he didn't notice and recounted the overheard conversation between Lu Chengyuan and Manager Liu.
Hearing words like "game" and "joke", Lu Chengjing's eyes were indifferent, and it seemed that Lu Chengyuan's expression when he said these words appeared in front of him. It was hypocritical, annoying, and extremely disgusting.
His stomach was churning, and he couldn't help but pursed his lips tightly and listened quietly to Shang Wan's words.
Shang Wan watched his reaction at any time. Lu Chengyuan was indeed disgusting, but Lu Chengjing shouldn't be affected by such a disgusting thing forever.
She stretched out her hand and pinched Lu Chengjing's fair earlobe, "What do you think they want to mention in front of Mr. Lu?"
The temperature and strength on the earlobe were extremely familiar. The dark and rushing emotions instantly receded like a tide. Lu Chengjing lowered his eyes and thought seriously about Shang Wan's question.
Seeing that his mood had calmed down, Shang Wan said, "I'll leave it to you. Think about it slowly. I'll wash the dishes first."
She put away the dishes and chopsticks and took them to the kitchen to wash them.
After wiping his hands, he came out and saw Lu Chengjing still thinking. Shang Wan thought for a while and went to the field with the hoe.
The ground is full of vibrant green.
The stems of the herbal cuttings taken in the past two days have taken root, and most of the two acres of land irrigated by the spiritual spring water have sprouted new shoots.
The effect is comparable to the use of hormones.
——Lingquan water, a good helper for farming.
Shang Wan stared at the Miao Miao in his own land and was once again glad that no one in the village was clearing land here.
Today, one acre of the five acres is still vacant, which was specially set aside by Shang Wan.
She also wanted to do an experiment on what would happen if the seedlings grown in the spiritual field were transplanted into the ground.
A batch of cliff ginger has been harvested in the space before, and an additional cliff ginger tree has also grown.
Yesterday, when I was peeling garlic in the evening of Shang Dynasty, I took the time to scatter the spores of Yajiang in the spiritual field. By now, they had grown into small seedlings. These seedlings were Shang Wan's experimental subjects.
In order to avoid transplanting the seedlings to other environments rashly and causing all of them to die, Shang Wan dug out a row of small pits with a hoe, transplanted only this row for the time being, and then poured some well water.
After squatting nearby and observing for a while, Shang Wan patted the dirt on his skirt and stood up, planning to come back tomorrow to see the effect.
After she has figured out all the changes in the spiritual field, the changes in the seeds, and the changes in the seedlings, she can start working freely.
Getting rich is just around the corner!

“How about it, have you figured it out?”
Lu Chengjing put down the book and said, "Maybe it has something to do with the theft."
"Be careful." Shang Wan sat down.
Lu Chengjing said: "The case of the Lu family being stolen has never been closed. Those things are here with us. Although many were damaged during the earthquake, some of them have been preserved."
Shang Wan followed his train of thought and thought, "You mean that Manager Liu suddenly came here to find out the truth and see if those things are here with us?"
Lu Chengjing nodded, "At first you only took the things from the third room, which was too obvious. But it turned out that Shang Wan didn't know martial arts. When he left the house, he was penniless and had no money to hire someone to steal. With Mr. Lu's character, Not only will they not suspect us, they will also suspect that this is a trap and exclude us. "
"Then why are you suddenly suspicious now?"
Lu Chengjing had already thought about this problem, and he said: "I guess there are two possibilities. The first is that someone in the village recognized those things and went to the Lu Mansion to report them. Mr. Lu believed the informer and sent Manager Liu to confirm the situation.
Secondly, in order to solve the troubles inside and outside the house and satisfy the appetites of the squires, the Lu family must have spent a lot of money. Only now are we free to trace the theft, not letting go of anyone who has suspicions, but it just happens to be us. "
Shang Wan clicked his tongue, "I thought Manager Liu came to find a place for Mrs. Lu."
Lu Chengjing raised his eyes and looked at Shang Wan with his calm black eyes without meaning.
Shang Wan felt confused and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Am I wrong?"
Lu Chengjing considered the words and said slowly: "Mrs. Lu will not do this. She values rules the most. She teaches people face to face and will not fake others."
Shang Wan chuckled, "It's true that I'm not cheating on others, and I know how to choose the right time to punish me when you're not around. I don't even have anyone to ask for mercy."
"You..." Lu Chengjing frowned in confusion, as if he wanted to ask something. Looking into Shang Wan's sarcastic almond-shaped eyes, he cautiously swallowed the words that came to his lips.
The corners of his lips pursed, and his Adam's apple rolled rapidly.
Shang Wan looked at him with his chin on his head, starting from his eyebrows, his eyes moved down inch by inch.
She knew what Lu Chengjing was wondering about, and it was nothing more than asking her why she knew what happened to the original Shang Wan.
She could say, however, that the fact of time travel was difficult to explain.
Just thinking about it gives me a headache.
The atmosphere fell into silence and continued to sink.
His eyes moved down to the fingers that were clasping the armrest. The fingertips were white from exertion, but the joints were slightly pink.
Really good-looking hands don't pick angles.
Shang Wan reached out to grab it, intertwined their fingers intimately, and took the initiative to provoke the topic just now, "Continue to analyze, if it is the first possibility, who do you think the whistleblower will be?"
Lu Chengjing stared at the two people's clasped hands and asked, "Who do you think it is?"
Shang Wan raised his eyelashes and looked at him. After their eyes intertwined for a few seconds, the two of them almost said in unison, "The Lin family."
"Yes, there is a connection between the two minds." Shang Wan let go of his beautiful hand, lightly ran his fingertips across his palm, and wrote the word "Lin" one stroke at a time.
——Writing on the palms is for flirting.
