After being universally criticized online, he cultivates immortality and farms to lead his motherlan

Chapter 108: It wasn't suicide, but being forced to death.

“I met her at the Xie family’s family reunion dinner. I think she told you about it,” Jian Ning replied.

"You did say that, but it was only a one-time meeting. Why would they send a lawyer to help you?" Zhang Nan's lips curled into a half-smile. "Something's not right. This is very strange."

Long Wu crossed her arms and echoed Zhang Nan's words, "Something's not right."

Jian Ning met two pairs of curious eyes and gave a helpless laugh.

While listening to them chat about their recent situations, I had already eaten about half full.

So Jian Ning simply recounted some of the recent events.

Her interactions with Xiao Li and Xiao Heqi, and the trouble caused by Su Shijian and others, ultimately led to her misdeeds being exposed. She also knew an agricultural expert who wanted to buy her corn.

Of course, some things that couldn't be said have been removed.

For example, it only says that they helped Xiao Heqi, but it doesn't say exactly how they helped.

After listening, Zhang Nan exclaimed in amazement, "Damn, Ningning, you're amazing! I declare that from now on, you're my only connection at Yichen Technology."

Speaking of Xiao Heqi, Long Wu suddenly remembered the gossip she had mentioned in the WeChat group that she hadn't finished telling.

"Hey, are you guys still interested in that big gossip about the Xiao family we talked about before?"

"Eat, I'll eat! Tell me quickly!" Zhang Nan was beaming with excitement. She loved gossip and was practically a gossip expert.

So whenever something happens to Jian Ning, even if Jian Ning herself is unaware, Zhang Nan will be the first to inform her.

Long Wu's gossipy expression suddenly turned mysterious, and she even unconsciously lowered her voice.

"I've told you about the affairs of the eldest and second branches of the Xiao family before. Recently, something big happened. The eldest son suddenly learned that his mother did not commit suicide, but was forced to death."

Zhang Nan's eyes widened instantly, and his voice involuntarily softened as he asked, "Was it that exciting? Tell me, what happened next?"

Long Wu continued, "The most important thing about this is that my aunt revealed that this is a secret that the Xiao family has kept hidden for many years."

Actually, the previous generation of the Xiao family didn't have only one child; they had twins. It seems that many years ago, there was a conflict between the brothers in one generation of the Xiao family, so the younger brother was given away.

Until the older brother living in the Xiao family, who was Xiao Heqi's biological father, was in a car accident.

At that time, the Xiao family was already in turmoil, and this news absolutely could not be spread, so they brought back their younger brother from outside to take over the position.

Only Old Master Xiao knew about this, but somehow Xiao Heqi's mother also found out.

Perhaps because he was her husband, after learning the news, she kept a low profile, waiting for the right opportunity to expose him. Unexpectedly, she was discovered to be faking illness, which drove her to her death.

Long Wu smacked her lips and made a reasonable guess: "I suspect that it was mostly because of Xiao Heqi, who was still young at the time, that she forced him to do it. After all, if someone can be driven to death, it must be something she cares about the most."

After listening, Zhang Nan rubbed his arms, which were covered in goosebumps.

"My goodness, the waters of the wealthy are really deep, even more exaggerated than what's shown in TV dramas."

Long Wu tasted a piece of cornbread, and her voice returned to normal: "This matter is still unresolved, and we don't know how it will develop. Anyway, the Xiao family basically knows about it now."

Jian Ning focused on the key points and asked, "So, actually, Xiao Heqi is the older brother's child, and Xiao Li is the younger brother's child?"

“Yeah, right.” Long Wu nodded, her eyes shining as she looked at the cornbread on her chopsticks. “Wow, the cornbread next to this braised goose in the iron pot is really delicious. Ningning, can we pack one up to take home for my mom to try later?”

"Can't you be a little more ambitious?" Zhang Nan poked her and said with great enthusiasm, "I've made the decision for Ningning. You can take two with you! Let your dad try them too. If you like them, you'll have to support Ningning's business in the future."

Long Wu laughed and said, "Of course! My aunt is a big fan of the Farming Sect now. When she heard I was coming, she even asked if I could buy more vegetables to take back for her, haha."

“There are plenty of vegetables in the field; you can pick some when you leave.” Jian Ning was always generous in this regard.

After all, there were really a lot of vegetables in the garden.

She puts out vegetable blind boxes once a week, and in the empty spaces in the vegetable garden, she sows seeds and sprinkles a little rain to accelerate plant growth.

The vegetable garden is basically evergreen. After lunch, the three of us played Dou Dizhu (a popular Chinese card game).

They played cards until evening, and after finishing their dinner, Zhang Nan and Long Wu left, taking some food with them.

Alaska was also taken away by Dragon Dance.

"Ningning, please take care of Naonao during this time."

Jian Ning waved her hand: "No, Nao Nao has helped me a lot too."

The Alaskan Malamute was put on a leash and led away by Long Wu, occasionally turning back to let out a "woof~".

Long Wu didn't understand what he meant, only assuming that he was reluctant to leave.

Jian Ning could understand.

Alaska is right.

"Oreo, you stay here and wait for me to return."

"I'm going on a business trip for a few days. You must behave yourself at home and don't open the door for anyone else."

"Don't worry, I will definitely come back."

Three days later, Alaska was indeed sent back.

Long Wu said with a embarrassed expression, "Ningning, Nao Nao broke my dad's favorite tea set when he got home, and scratched my mom's silk four-piece bedding set all over. My parents were so angry that they beat it up, and they don't want to see it anymore. Could you please take care of it for me again?"

Jian Ning looked at the Alaskan Malamute, which held its head high and looked proud.

Alaskan Malamute: "Woof~" See, the king is back, and I haven't broken my promise.

The little Border Collie happily went up to it and licked its fur like a lackey.

Long Wu looked at Jian Ning, worried that the other party would not agree.

After all, she knew how noisy Nao Nao was. She had already asked someone to help take care of her for so long, and to trouble them any further, even if they were a friend, felt a bit inappropriate.

“Ningning, it’s okay if you don’t want to. I’ll rent another place and hire someone to take care of her and check on her regularly.”

“I really like Nao Nao, you can keep her with me.” Jian Ning had been distracted by the two dogs chatting, which is why she didn’t answer Xiao Wu immediately.

She quickly reached out and took the leash, squatted down, and helped the Alaskan Malamute remove the leash.

The next second, the two free dogs darted into the nearby bushes and began chasing and playing with each other.

Seeing this, Long Wu sighed and said, "Nao Nao is probably born to stay in a place like this, free and unrestrained. Our home environment is not suitable for it."

She looked away and gratefully said to Jian Ning, "Ningning, I really don't know how to thank you."

“No need to be so polite, but if you really want to thank me…” Jian Ning took her hand and led her into the yard, taking out two pairs of gloves and a basket: “Come on, let’s go pick corn.”

I've always written diligently, and even when I have to take a break, I try my best to update at least one chapter. I also updated during the Lunar New Year. I really never imagined that my chapter would be blocked on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

I'm not against blocking chapters. Initially, there was no issue, so I contacted customer service. After learning about the problem, I tried to fix it, changing all the words I thought were problematic. Now the entire chapter is in red.

So Jian Ning has problems talking to cats and dogs, having the little soybean plant strawberries, and digging sweet potatoes. How am I supposed to fix this? It's such a frustrating thing to encounter on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

(And this is the only place I can vent my anger.)
Now I'm just waiting until after the New Year when the editors are back at work so I can see how to revise this chapter before it's released.

The two chapters I wrote today were also a mess. I was happily celebrating the New Year during the day when I suddenly saw that the chapters were blocked. I couldn't fix them, and I still had to rush to write today's update, so my mood was all over the place.

I will adjust my emotions as soon as possible, revise the article again, and write it properly.
