Chapter 325 Smash the Dog's Head
"Someone is coming!"

The head of the Xue family gritted his teeth and summoned his steward, Baosheng, coldly ordering, "Have everyone in the manor come to the front courtyard to cooperate with Lord Jiao of the Jingzhao Prefecture in investigating the case!"

Bao Sheng glanced cautiously at the Xue family head, bowed his head and replied "Yes," then respectfully withdrew to make the arrangements.

This arrangement, naturally, was meant to give a warning to the servants in the household.
-
The concept of longevity.

Just like yesterday, at the third crow of the rooster, before dawn, all the women were woken up by Su Xianyun.

Of course, even if Su Xianyun hadn't come to call them, they would have woken up by now anyway.

There was no way around it, I was just too hungry...

They were so hungry that the moment they opened their eyes, they felt they could eat a whole cow.

Unfortunately, breakfast was not as lavish as they had imagined, with meat and eggs... Instead, it was just a plate of stir-fried vegetables.

That's right.

Just one plate.

There were several of them, and they only had this one plate of stir-fried vegetables.

This isn't even the tenderest part of the stir-fried vegetable leaves!!

It was just some stir-fried vegetable scraps!
Even so, after each person took two bites, the plate of stir-fried vegetables was completely empty.

Everyone was filled with sorrow and couldn't help but complain a bit.

In the end, all I got was the same thing: "If you really can't accept it, you can choose to go home directly!"

"Once you're home, you can have whatever you want to eat, right?"

"At that time, let alone stir-fried vegetables, even stir-fried vegetables with meat or stir-fried vegetables with eggs will be easy to make and you can eat them whenever you want, right?"

"Not to mention, there's also roast duck, roast goose, roast chicken..."

Liu Wu circled around the dining table where the women were eating, reciting the names of the dishes.

Women: ...

Could someone come and stew the duck in this pot first? It's strange, they were already starving, so they should have been getting hungry just hearing Liu Wu here, rattling off the names of the dishes.

But for some reason, the more Liu Wu talked and talked about those dishes, the more disgusted they felt.

Not only did I have no appetite, but I even felt like throwing up leftovers from the night before.

The women's gazes toward Liu Wu now burned with even more rage.

Despite being very hungry, the group lost their appetite after being disturbed.

After a quick breakfast, they each picked up their hoes again and followed the same mountain path they had taken the day before to the wasteland assigned by Song Lan to continue their work.

Lin Zhixiu looked around.

Today, Liu Wu and Su Xianyun did not come along to supervise them.

Song Lan didn't come either.

"During your meal just now, did you notice anything that seemed strange, really strange?"

Lin Zhixiu suddenly lowered her voice and spoke, instantly drawing everyone's attention.

"What's weird?"

"Don't you all think that the man named Liu Wu is behaving very strangely?" Lin Zhixiu reminded them.

Everyone was thoughtful.

Is this unusual?
They all thought of Liu Wu's strange behavior while they were eating.

"Now that you mention it, I really do think this man is a bit strange. It's like he's sick, muttering and reciting the names of the dishes while people are eating..."

Isn't that just asking for a beating?

If it weren't for Song Lan holding their lives in her hands, and not daring to offend her two lackeys, they would definitely have smashed Liu Wu's head in!

"He definitely did it on purpose!"

The crowd largely agreed, feeling that Liu Wu's behavior was somewhat overly deliberate.
