Chapter 14 Is This the Pervert?

Before going to bed, Lu Xinran opened the melon-eating system again.

I opened the booklet belonging to Fang Suxin and read it carefully again and again.

"Tongzi, you said she was fine, why did she suddenly faint? And fainted twice?"

Are you pregnant again?

In many novels, it is written that once the heroine becomes pregnant, she becomes so delicate that she faints at any time, and the hero feels so distressed that he wishes he could give his life to her.

Fang Suxin seems coy and artificial, maybe she has this kind of personality.

The child felt her crazy complaints, and after a while, he replied to her in a baby voice.

"She's not pregnant. She fainted because her emotions fluctuated a lot, as if she was frightened."

"Scared?"

Lu Xinran was at a loss. Wasn't she the one who was so aggressive in the teahouse before?

Forget it. I'll find a way to go to Zhou's house again tomorrow and I'll know everything. Then I'll try to get a month's worth of life out of Fang Suxin.

She turned over and fell asleep happily, but she didn't know that night the news that Fang Suxin had an affair with the Minister of Revenue Zhang Youchang spread secretly.

The next day, some people with good intentions sent letters to Zhang's residence to request a meeting.

Fang Suxin was frightened twice in succession and felt a little weak.

After a night's rest, she looked a little better. However, after hearing that someone had delivered a letter to Zhang's residence and wanting to take a look at Zhang Youchang's study, she fainted again.

For the next two days, Lu Xinran didn't find a chance to go to Zhou's house to see the excitement. When Pei was willing to let them go out, she heard that Fang Suxin suddenly fell ill and was sent to a manor outside the city for recuperation.

she:"……?"

How did her sheep run away?

Lu Xinlan, who was sitting next to her, listened to her frustrated and nagging voice and reminded her with a smile.

"Two days ago, the study of Mr. Zhang, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, was broken into and many scrolls were stolen. The person depicted in one of the scrolls was Madam Zhou."

Lu Xinran: “!!”

That painting was so explicit, and yet... it was stolen?

No, there was more than one explicit portrait.

Her eyes suddenly lit up, and she quickly pulled Lu Xinlan's arm and said, "And then, are there any other people in the scroll?"

[Ahhh, I really want to get in close contact with Zhang Youchang. Just ten steps away from him will be enough. Then I can eat all his melons.]

Lu Xinlan heard what was going on, and she understood instantly.

Others within ten steps can hear her thoughts, and if she wants to eat melons, she must stay within ten steps of the other person, otherwise she can only know the general situation.

She met the other person's sparkling gaze, thought for a moment, and then spoke softly.

"Sister, this matter involves the reputation of women. As women, we should know that some excitement is acceptable and some is not.

"It's not easy for women in this world. Even if Madam Zhou herself is wrong, we don't know the inside story of others, so we can't be the one who helps the tyrant."

Lu Xinran was stunned. He didn't expect that he was being taught a lesson.

But when he came to his senses, he shook her arm with fear and gratitude.

"Thank you, sister. I understand!"

[Ahhh, the heroine is so gentle, not like what is written in the book at all. She has a positive outlook and treats me very well. What should I do if I start to like her a little? ]

[What she just said was right. I forgot the bottom line of eating melons. I shouldn't have done that! ]

[Will she not frame me like in the book in the future? No, I don’t think so.]

[Forget it, I have Tongzi here, Tongzi will remind me. ]

A series of intensive thoughts appeared in Lu Xinlan's ears, and the corners of her lips couldn't help but curl up.

She raised her hand and was about to rub the other's head when the carriage suddenly stopped and the two sisters fell forward at the same time.

"Miss, there seems to be something wrong ahead."

The driver's panicked voice was mixed with pain. He must have suffered some minor injuries from the sudden stop just now.

The two sisters sat up and opened the curtains tacitly, one on the left and one on the right looking out.

There were many people running along the road, looking excited that there were melons to eat.

Lu Xinran turned his head and looked at Lu Xinlan with bright eyes.

"Sister, shall we go take a look too?"

[Maybe this melon can help me increase my health for a few days. It's a pity that Fang Suxin didn't finish eating the melon, otherwise my health would be enough for a month.]

When Lu Xinlan heard what was going on, her heart tightened, and she instantly understood why she was so keen on eating melons.

Health points?

Is that what she thought?

She felt inexplicably distressed. "Since the carriage can't move, let's go to the front and take a look."

Lu Xinran cheered in her heart and jumped off the carriage first. Then she remembered that she was not good enough as a lady from a noble family, so she reached out to help Lu Xinlan.

With servants protecting them, they cleared a path for them. After walking forward for a quarter of an hour, they saw several people fighting in the middle of the street.

A woman in her twenties held a thin little girl in her arms. Both of them were shivering and kept dodging to the side.

There were several people in front of them who were pulling and shouting something.

"This woman is so unlucky. Her husband died a year ago. Her brother-in-law asked her to remarry, but she couldn't bear to leave her daughter behind, so she stayed to take care of her mother-in-law.

"It turned out that the mother-in-law was a wicked woman. She tricked them into going to the city and then wanted to sell them to a brothel. If the daughter's brother hadn't heard the news and came running, their lives would have been ruined."

"Who says it's not true? They stayed to be filial to her, working from dawn to dusk, but her mother-in-law scolded them for eating nothing."

"You are already a widow, why stay here? Just go back to your parents' home."

"It's easy to say, but you have to eat when you get home. It's better to remarry as soon as possible."

“…”

The crowd was noisy and chaotic, and the two sisters heard a general idea of ​​what happened as they walked along.

It was just too far away, so Lu Xinran's melon-eating system was of no use. She pulled Lu Xinlan all the way over, and finally when they were within ten steps, the melon-eating system automatically started.

[Well, I knew there must be something hidden! ]

Lu Xinran flipped through the melon-eating system and became more and more angry.

[The woman's husband is not dead. He had an affair with his mother's niece, but divorce is not popular in the countryside, so he and his mother came up with this solution.]

[He first faked his own death and lived with his cousin, then had her mother torture his wife to death, waiting for her to be unable to bear it and leave home to remarry.]

[When the woman remarries, he will find a reason to say that he is not dead. By then, the woman will have remarried, and he can marry his cousin legitimately.]

[This man is such a jerk! How dare he want both! Who the hell does he think he is? He even wants to use the money from selling his wife and daughter to build a house and marry his cousin.]

[It's so disgusting. It's so unlucky to meet such a person! ]

The more Lu Xinran watched, the angrier he became, and he even wanted to go up and help the woman tear her mother-in-law apart.

Lu Xinlan listened to her every word and felt disgusted when he saw the old woman still fighting with her brother.

The two of them were so angry that they didn't notice that the surroundings had become quiet without them noticing.

The crowd parted, and a stern man in a water-blue brocade robe walked out.

"Miss Lu!"

Lu Xinlan clenched his hands and hurriedly pulled Lu Xinran, who was still cursing in his heart, to bow.

"This subject has met His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince."

The fourth prince?!

These three words almost brought Lu Xinran back to her senses instantly. She saluted while looking secretly.

A voice in Song Junyan's ears appeared directly, [Oh my god, is this the pervert? ]
