C15 Plant a Bunch of Weeds

Seeing them running away, Tao Xiyuan, who was lying on the bed, heaved a sigh of relief. At this moment, she inadvertently glanced at Soong Junlian's inquiring gaze on her body. His eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about something.

Tao Xiyuan felt a little helpless. She turned around and asked with a smile, "But you still don't understand what happened just now?"

Soong Junlian raised his eyebrows and his eyes darkened slightly. "Xi, if I remember correctly, your family is poor, so how could you have the land deed of East Mountain?"

Tao Xiyuan sighed slightly, "This matter can't be explained clearly in a short period of time, but I won't harm you." As she spoke, she looked at Soong Junlian with a serious gaze and spoke word by word.

When Soong Junlian heard her promise, he turned around. Her serious and serious face reflected in his dark eyes. Tao Xiyuan's heart was also extremely nervous.

After a while, he suddenly laughed, like a bright spring, blooming with a gentle light.

"Alright, I believe you."

Tao Xiyuan secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and then silently apologized to Soong Junlian in her heart.

After all, she had still concealed something from him, so she was afraid that she would let down this trust. However, thinking about it, her actions were reasonable. Although Soong Junlian was her husband, she was still a person who had transmigrated here. Before knowing his background, it was better not to reveal her Mountain God's power, lest she be used.

The next day, Tao Xiyuan took the hoe and prepared to continue her reclamation of the East Mountain. Originally, she wanted to go up the mountain alone, but she could not persuade Soong Junlian, so she had to let his guards follow her to the East Mountain to reclaim the land. Knowing that Soong Junlian cared about her health, Tao Xiyuan felt helpless and warm at the same time.

When they went up the mountain, the scene that greeted them stunned everyone. They saw that the entire piece of neat land had started to sprout green sprouts, which looked like wild grass growing wildly in spring, blooming with vitality. The color of the tender green leaves was different, but they were arranged orderly, giving off a sense of hierarchy.

Tao Xiyuan was the first to react. She took a deep breath, and after being stunned, she burst out with ecstasy. Was this the power of the mountain god? In just one night, these vegetables had started to sprout. If that was the case, wouldn't she be able to harvest them very soon? When the time came, she could sell these vegetables in the market and make a huge profit.

Once she made money and obtained the recognition of the mountain god, her Chenchen would be able to come back.

Thinking of this, her eyes lit up with excitement. She strode in and pretended to be calm as she said to the people behind her, "Everyone, bring your buckets? Go to the nearby stream to fetch water."

Only then did the guards recover from their shock. Their expressions were solemn, and their gazes towards Tao Xiyuan were much more respectful. They quickly picked up the wooden buckets in their hands and said in unison, "Yes!" After saying that, they left the East Mountain neatly.

After the guard left, a smile appeared in Tao Xiyuan's eyes. She quickly walked into the vegetable garden and looked closer. Soon, the emotions in her eyes were replaced by surprise.

"Blossoms, carrots, seaweed..." She was so shocked that she could not close her mouth. Suddenly, she saw a green vine not far away from her. She exclaimed.

"There's actually strawberries?"

Seeing these familiar vegetables appear in front of her, her heart could not be described with shock. If she remembered correctly, most of the vegetables here were extremely rare in the capital, and they came from the foreign countries. Very few people had seen them before. If so... she had found a business opportunity. Tao Xiyuan's lips curled into a cunning smile.

As her gaze swept over the row of fresh and juicy vegetables swaying in the wind, she couldn't help but narrow her eyes. She felt a sense of satisfaction in her heart.

"Yo, Tao Xiyuan, what a good mood." A rough voice suddenly sounded in the vegetable garden.

Tao Xiyuan's eyes suddenly turned cold. She did not need to turn her head to know that it was Dongfang Su again.

She turned around and looked at Dongfang Su. Her eyes flashed with anger. "Dongfang Su, what are you doing here again?"

Dongfang Su leaned against the fence, followed by a group of servants. His casual gaze swept over the vegetable garden and clicked his tongue. He shook his head repeatedly.

"Tao Xiyuan, could it be that you knocked your head on the fence a few days ago and made yourself stupid? You spent a whole day planting a bunch of wild grass?"

He laughed loudly and the servant behind him also laughed ear-piercingly.

Tao Xiyuan raised her eyebrows and said lightly, "Young Master Dongfang is too lenient. This is my territory. I can do whatever I want. As for the weeds..." Her eyes moved to Dongfang Su and she changed the topic with a disdainful tone. "Young Master Dongfang, if you have never seen these dishes before, then don't talk nonsense. Otherwise, you will embarrass yourself."

Her words implied that Dongfang Su was ignorant and angered him to the point that his face turned green.

"How sharp-tongued!" He sneered, "Capture her and tear her mouth apart!"

"Yes!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the people behind him rushed to Tao Xiyuan and surrounded her.

Tao Xiyuan's eyes remained unmoved. She glanced at the people around her indifferently and her aura instantly enveloped them. The hands holding the sticks were trembling and they could not help but whisper to each other.

"This woman seems to be a little strange. Didn't we beat her up together last time?"

"Look at her eyes. She looks scared. Could she have cultivated some witchcraft and want to kill us?" A skinny man speculated in fear.

"That's right. Why don't we..."

Another person sneered in disdain, "You really scared a little girl? She was just lucky last time. Do you really think she has some divine power?"

Hearing his words, everyone felt ashamed but also braver. They raised their sticks and smashed them fiercely towards her head.

Tao Xiyuan smiled lightly and said, "You've forgotten your lesson so quickly? I don't mind helping you to recall it!" In the blink of an eye, she flipped her palm and a violent air wave exploded. Everyone was shocked and flew a few meters away.

"Ouch, my stomach!"

"Don't hit my face!"

Screams rose and fell, echoing in the valley. When Dongfang Su saw this strange scene, he suddenly turned around and looked at Tao Xiyuan. He saw her looking back with a smile, looking especially sweet, "Young Master Dongfang, is there anything else?"

This sweet smile and gentle voice were like the souls of the dead in his eyes. Suddenly, his hair stood on end, and his eyes gradually revealed fear.

He staggered two steps back, "You … Don't come over!" After saying that, he immediately rolled and crawled away from the vegetable garden. The servants who were rolling on the ground also hurriedly got up and looked at her as if they had seen a ghost. They ran away in fear.
