Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let's Farm

Chapter 1214: Chapter 1213: Apprehensive_1 Chapter 1214: Chapter 1213: Apprehensive_1 He had tried all night and still couldn’t produce the Divine Liquid; soon, the sky began to lighten, and Tong Sanlang woke up. Qiao Xiaomai informed him of the situation.

Tong Sanlang also started to panic.

Creating the sixth grain wasn’t a good thing or an achievement?

This was bad. Yang Wenxiao’s entire family was eagerly waiting for the Divine Liquid. Without being able to extract it, this was…

Tong Sanlang pursed his lips and hesitantly began to speak, “Do you think… we should prepare a note in advance?”

“What’s the use of preparing a note? When the time comes, Yang Wenxiao will definitely make you follow him closely. How can you pretend to be a descendant of Liuli and send the message away?” Qiao Xiaomai’s little face scrunched up like a bitter melon.

“Let Master help.” Tong Sanlang said as he hopped out of bed to prepare paper and ink. “Let Grandfather go back first and take the message to Master.”

Yang Wenxiao wasn’t concerned about Tong Tiehu’s comings and goings; the bluestone road from the Capital City to Bailu Town was almost finished, and if Tong Tiehu traveled overnight, he would definitely reach Anping Village ahead of them.

Once there, he could consult with Deng Chun and stage a play; they should be able to deceive them.

“Will Yang Wenxiao believe it?” Qiao Xiaomai harbored doubts.

“Should we allow the retired emperor to be restless without saying a word? Just say there’s an urgent matter requiring you to leave for a while and ask him to wait patiently for some more time. After all, His Majesty’s addiction hasn’t acted up; even if he is anxious, he should be able to restrain himself.”

Qiao Xiaomai looked at Tong Sanlang, who had lit a candle and was grinding ink, her brows knotted in concern, “But can the Divine Liquid really be produced? If it can never be produced…”

They couldn’t keep making excuses to indefinitely put it off; sooner or later, Yang Wenxiao would definitely grow suspicious.

Yang Wenxiao’s current attitude towards the couple was very delicate. On one hand, he remained skeptical of her strength, but on the other, he trusted Tong Sanlang immensely, even considering appointing him to command the nation’s military.

This contradictory situation must be because there was a descendant of Liuli present.

The descendants of Liuli evidently paid no heed to worldly affairs and were solely dedicated to seeking the path of immortality. The descendants were unconcerned about who ruled the world; as long as the Yang Family didn’t produce a foolish ruler and continued to favor the Tong Family, the descendants of Liuli wouldn’t interfere with Daqi’s affairs.

So, the reason the couple could maintain this delicate balance was largely due to the relationship with the descendants of Liuli.

If Yang Wenxiao found out that the supposed descendants of Liuli were made up, what would his reaction be?

It was really hard to predict.

She raked her fingers through her hair anxiously, deeply vexed.

Being close to a ruler was like living with a tiger.

“We’ll deal with the future when it comes; let’s just get through this time. The Divine Liquid cannot remain still forever; otherwise, where did the two taels that the retired emperor and I had come from?” As he spoke, Tong Sanlang began to write, imitating Liuli’s handwriting.

At these words, Qiao Xiaomai sighed deeply, “Deceptive. They give you the space but no instruction manual.”

“We have Liuli’s testament; the direction of our efforts should be correct. Think about it, should we introduce something new to make this letter more believable?”

“Ah?”

“In my opinion, how about we introduce potatoes? They can be used as both food and vegetables. Didn’t you say someplace used potatoes as their staple food? Bringing out potatoes would definitely be considered another great merit.”

Qiao Xiaomai, “… Forget it, corn has been no use.”

“Hmm… Could it be that the corn will only be useful once the people have truly tasted it?” Tong Sanlang speculated about this possibility.
