Transmigrated into a Farmhouse: The Stepmother Spoils Her Child to the Heavens

Whether she leaves or not, and when she leaves, is just a matter of time. What he needs to do now is to ensure that she has the ability to protect herself.

When Gu Zhan made this decision, he also asked himself why he was doing this. Wasn't he living here to avoid trouble?

But now, he's surrounded by a bunch of troubles. He should have stayed far away, but instead, he's taken all those troubles upon himself, getting himself into a mess.

When we first met, she was arrogant and unreasonable, but when we met again, she seemed like a completely different person.

It's clearly that person, but everything feels different, and he can't quite put his finger on what's different!

In the days that followed, he began to pay attention to her and became interested in her. Even now, he still can't understand why he did it.

She was practicing archery here, while those two were drinking tea and chatting over there. Lin Cai threw her bow and arrows on the ground and walked over.

Then he picked up the cup on the table, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it all in one gulp.

Lin Bao was startled by his sister's actions and hadn't reacted yet when he heard someone next to him ask, "What's wrong?"

"tired."

"Shall we take a break?"

"I want to take a nap."

There's a deck chair over there.

The conversation flowed smoothly, with questions and answers exchanged. Lin Bao's gaze shifted back and forth between the two of them, and he saw that his sister had indeed gone to find a place to sleep.

He turned to the person next to him and demanded fiercely, "What's going on between you and my sister?"

"Nothing."

“Gu, you’ve changed. You’re no longer honest. You’ve learned to lie and be perfunctory.”

"Is the relationship between the injured person and their savior acceptable?"

Lin Bao was a little confused. Who was the injured person? Who was the savior? What did these two relationships mean?

He understood it when read separately, but he didn't understand it when read together. Gu Zhan, who was next to him, didn't want to explain any further and stood up and left.

……

Both the tofu business and the pastry business were doing well. Hua Ni was in charge of the pastries, and Gu Dachui was in charge of the tofu.

One worked at Baixiangzhai and the other at various restaurants. The young couple were so busy every day that they barely had time to breathe, but when they saw the money coming in, they couldn't stop smiling.

Everything was going smoothly until fate intervened. But fortune doesn't always smile upon you, and something happened at Baixiangzhai.

"Come out, come out! Everyone from Baixiangzhai, come out! Baixiangzhai is a black shop. The things you sell are poisonous. Not only have they made people sick, but they've almost killed them!"

"If you don't come out today and give me an explanation, we're not leaving and we'll make sure you can't do business anymore."

"Come out, come out now! You harmful things, come out quickly! You have the guts to sell poison but not the guts to come out and admit it?"

Hearing the noise from below, Manager Lei stepped out of the room and saw Zhao Xiaoliu running over in a panic.

Seeing his rashness, Manager Lei immediately put on a stern face: "Zhao Xiaoliu, how many times have I told you not to be impatient when things happen? Have you been ignoring what I say?"

"Oh dear, my boss, the place is in complete chaos downstairs. How can I not be anxious? If I don't hurry, they're probably going to start a fight."

Hearing this, Manager Lei remembered why he had come out: "What's going on? The store isn't open yet, is it? Why is it so noisy outside?"

It's not like they'd go to such lengths to buy pastries. Bai Xiang Zhai doesn't have any new products lately. They wouldn't smash up the door just for a little food!

"No, no, it's for food, but not to buy food. They got sick from eating our food."

Upon hearing this, Manager Lei thought it was impossible. Bai Xiang Zhai's products had never had any problems; apart from not tasting good, nothing had ever happened.

But now that food tastes better, why are we still experiencing problems?

“I’m telling the truth. They’re still at the door, and they’re insisting that the problem started because they ate our food. They’re demanding an explanation from us!”

"They're making a scene at the door, are you just going to let them? Don't you know how to get them to leave?"

If they're making such a fuss at the door so early in the morning, how are we supposed to do business today?

When Manager Lei came downstairs, he saw a nervous and flustered Hua Ni. She had personally taught the chef how to make the pastries, so there was definitely no problem with the method and ingredients.

But what if someone outside gets food poisoning, and no one believes her?!

Huani had never encountered such a problem before, and now that she had suddenly run into it, she was really panicked.

Seeing Manager Lei come down, she was about to say that she hadn't done it when she heard him say, "Madam Hua, we probably can't open today. Why don't you go back through the back door?"

Upon hearing this, Huani looked up at Manager Lei and asked, "W-W-Will you let me go back first?"

“But those people outside, they all say…”

"You made all the pastries, and you trained the pastry chef, but the things he didn't use were all provided by us."

He's not brainless; he wouldn't suspect anything wrong with his own things. Even if there really is a problem, it's a problem with the people involved, not the things themselves.

Even if something were wrong with the person, it wouldn't be this one, so he had to send someone back first, lest they frighten the person.

Huani knew that Manager Lei trusted her, and after hearing Manager Lei say that he could solve the problem, she left through the back door.

When Hua Ni found Gu Dachui, she sobbed as she told him what had happened that day.

After listening, Gu Dachui first looked at his wife and asked, "Did they all go and cause trouble? Did they hurt you? Did they do anything to you?"

People without reason do nothing. He had seen this before, so he was worried that Huani would get hurt by them.

Seeing how concerned the man was about her, Huani blushed and shook her head: "I'm fine, you don't need to worry, I haven't been in contact with them..."

Knowing that his wife was not injured, Gu Dachui took care of his own affairs, and the two of them went back together.

When Lin Cai returned home, she felt like her arms were about to leave the house, and she desperately wanted to hit herself.

She felt she must have been out of her mind before, otherwise why would she have agreed to Gu Zhan's ridiculous reason?

I didn't have to suffer like this, but I jumped in anyway, and now, after only a few days of practice, both my hands are almost ruined!

When Gu Dachui returned, he told Lin Cai what had happened at Baixiangzhai. Lin Cai looked up at him and asked, "So what are your thoughts?"

"Or do you think there's something wrong with what happened? Or do you also believe that there's a problem with Bai Xiang Zhai's products?"
