I Rely on Eating Melons to Get an Official Job in a Period Novel

Jiang Panyu's biggest hobby in life was eating melons (gossiping); she was like a 'gossiping weasel' in the fields, wherever there was gossip, there she was, active on the front lines o...

Chapter 199 Worry

Xia Ting'an put the letter back into the envelope, sandwiched it with the sutra again, and then took the sutra and pretended to be calm as he went to find Lu Xiaojing: "Xiaojing, did you write this sutra yourself? Why does the handwriting look a bit different to me?"

Lu Xiaojing turned her head and glanced at the scripture in Xia Ting'an's hand and said, "It was not written by me, but by Comrade Ma, the female craftswoman who made the cheongsam for your mother.

She said she loved copying scriptures, and seeing that I was a big customer, she gave me one. I haven’t had the chance to read it yet!

But it was she who gave me inspiration, so I copied a scripture for my mother’s birthday and sent it to her to pray for her blessing. I’ll take a look at what’s written in this one when I have time.”

Xia Ting'an said calmly, "Haven't you read it? I thought you were the one who wrapped the book, and I wanted to ask you if you wanted to write on it."

Lu Xiaojing waved her hand and said, "I didn't pack it. It's like this when I got it. As for writing, I don't know what's inside so I won't write anything. I'll decide what to write when I know what's inside."

When Xia Ting'an heard what Lu Xiaojing said, she breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Lu Xiaojing didn't know that there was a vixen out there who was thinking about her.

Not long after he breathed a sigh of relief, Xia Ting'an felt unwell again. What should he do?

There is a seductress who is after my wife, what should I do?

As a man, Xia Ting'an never thought that one day a woman would try to steal his girlfriend. What should he do? Waiting online very urgently!

Should he go find this Ma Lian to assert his sovereignty? Xia Ting'an just felt embarrassed. If word got out that there was a woman trying to steal his wife, who knows how others would laugh at him for having no masculine charm!

"From your tone it seems that you are very familiar with this master. Are you planning to make a skirt?" Xia Ting'an stopped asking about the scriptures and changed the subject to ask about other things, carefully inquiring about the relationship between Ma Lian and Lu Xiaojing.

Lu Xiaojing thought for a moment and said, "You know what, I think this Comrade Ma is quite nice. He always comes to chat with me when he has nothing to do.

You don’t know, last time I said I wanted to eat plum juice, she said she could make it, and she would treat me to it when she finished it.”

Xia Ting'an clenched the scriptures in his hand and cursed Ma Lian in his heart, this vixen with bad intentions, was planning to conquer Lu Xiaojing's stomach first and then conquer her!

Xia Ting'an regretted so much. If he had known earlier, he would not have let his own mother make cheongsams. What kind of people would she have attracted?

Lu Xiaojing seemed to be chatting, but she was actually observing Xia Ting'an's actions secretly. She knew in her heart that he had been fooled. Lu Xiaojing began to praise Ma Lian non-stop: "Last time I said I wanted to make a skirt, and she found a lot of fabrics and patterns for me to choose from. She said that I have such a good figure, and she wanted to design a different one for me.

I have seen the draft drawing. It will definitely look good when it is made. You don’t know how difficult it is for Comrade Ma. Her parents are the kind of people who are only interested in money. If it weren’t for Ma Lian who has this skill, she would not have been able to make it.

Now she is forced to marry a 40-year-old widower. Tell me, is this pitiful or not?"

Ma Lian is not pitiful at all, she is just playing the victim to win your sympathy! This woman is so scheming.

Xia Ting'an roared in his heart, but on the surface he disagreed with Lu Xiaojing's words: "You can't look at things one-sidedly. If Ma Lian's parents were really so mean to her, where did she learn this craft?

But without her parents' support, she can't learn this. I think she just wants to cheat you out of your money and make you spend more money."

At the end, Xia Ting'an snorted disdainfully to express his dissatisfaction.

Lu Xiaojing pretended not to care: "That's also her sales method. She has the ability to make me pay obediently, which is also one of her abilities.

There is no distinction between high and low jobs. It is not easy for a woman like her to support herself with this skill."

Xia Ting'an felt upset. Why did his wife always protect an outsider? And a woman with bad intentions?

Lu Xiaojing was still too naive and did not see Ma Lian's true face at all.

Xia Ting'an was so worried that she couldn't sleep. She didn't know who to turn to for advice. She secretly hid the letter "written" by Ma Lian in her backpack. Lu Xiaojing "naturally" didn't know that there was a "foxy woman" who was "thinking about" her.

But in the following days, Ma Lian frequently appeared in Lu Xiaojing's mouth and in their lives.

After observing Lu Xiaojing carefully, Xia Ting'an discovered that Lu Xiaojing always brought back some snacks and fruits when she returned home recently.

Whenever Xia Ting'an asked, Sister Lu Xiaojing would smile and say, "These Ma Lian were brought to me. She said they tasted good, so she left some for me.

She also made the plum dew I mentioned last time. I didn’t expect Ma Lian to be such a nice person. I really like her more and more.”

Xia Ting'an didn't know what to say, his face was already dark. Ma Lian was not a good person. She was shameless enough to steal someone else's wife!

Xia Tingyin'an was particularly annoyed by the food that Ma Lian gave to Lu Xiaojing. What made her even more annoyed was that Lu Xiaojing, adhering to the principle of not asking for things from others for free, began to happily make "love snacks" for Ma Lian.

At least in Xia Ting'an's eyes, Lu Xiaojing was making loving snacks for Ma Lian, and he really wanted to spit into the box of snacks.

Xia Ting'an endured for a long time before he stopped himself from doing such an inhumane thing.

"Xiao Jing, why are you so busy making snacks for Comrade Ma? What about mine?

I feel like you haven't paid much attention to me since you met her.

If she really wants to do good for you, she should persuade you to focus on your family instead of always asking you to go out and play." Xia Ting'an tried to "separate" the relationship between Lu Xiaojing and Ma Lian.

Lu Xiaojing lowered her head and said nothing, a faint light flashed in her eyes, and then she raised her head and said dissatisfiedly: "What's wrong with you?

It's rare for me to have a close friend, why do you always say bad things about her, what's wrong with her, how has she offended you.

Don’t you want to pay me to make the skirt? If you don’t want to, you should have told me that I have my own salary and can afford it.”

Xia Ting'an was dumbfounded. No, he couldn't say a single bad word about Ma Lian now, right? Ma Lian was a vixen, a bad woman, she had no shame!

"I didn't mean that. I just felt like you ignored me."

"Have you ever cared about me? You gossip about me when I want to make a skirt, and you always say bad things about my friend. Don't say bad things about Ma Lian in the future." After Lu Xiaojing yelled at Xia Ting'an with a deliberately cold face, she packed up and went out.

Xia Ting'an was shaking with anger. He was angry that Lu Xiaojing couldn't see Ma Lian's true face. He was angry that Lu Xiaojing was too naive and was played around by Ma Lian's mistress. Now he was angry with her. If this continued, would Ma Lian encourage Lu Xiaojing to divorce him?

His wife, who was so old, was about to be stolen away by someone. Xia Ting'an couldn't eat at all. He just wanted to find Ma Lian to settle the score and ask her to stay away from his wife.

Xia Ting'an was about to go out angrily, but when he reached the door, he retreated dejectedly. No, he couldn't bring up the matter. If he did, wouldn't Lu Xiaojing know that Ma Lian liked her, and wouldn't that be fulfilling Ma Lian's wish?

Xia Ting'an was so anxious that he was at a loss, with blisters all over his mouth. He had so much grievances in his heart that he didn't know who to pour out.

Jiang Panyu listened to Lu Xiaojing's retelling and the real-time broadcast of the melon-eating system, and he laughed so hard that his teeth were exposed.
