Chapter 144 No poking, just do it!
"Faked death?" After listening to the explanation from Gu Yi and Master Nian Ci, Lu Mei's eyes lit up.
But there was still a hint of hesitation in his tone.
"Don't worry, Miss Lu, you won't be discovered." Master Nian Ci said.
With the presence of a certain magical grass, mortals will naturally not find any flaws.
"Once the Lu family accepts the fact of your death, we will secretly take you out of the house." Gu Yi said.
In this way, the issue of whether the Lu Mansion has Chenxixiang is resolved, and Lu Mei no longer has to worry.
Otherwise, even if you escape to another city, it is still not safe. It is better to fake your death and be done with it.
"Okay, I believe in my benefactors." Lu Mei's eyes sparkled.
Looking at the girl in front of them, Gu Yi and Nian Ci both felt a little pity. Such a good girl was treated like this.
"Then Miss Lu, we have to go back to Weicheng first." Gu Yi said, reminding Lu Mei to be prepared.
Lu Mei took a deep breath and nodded solemnly.
The group returned to Weicheng and found a place to stay. Gu Tingjun was puzzled, so he asked, "Little sister, why are you back again?"
Gu Yi looked at his silly second brother and slapped his head: Oh no, I almost forgot about my second brother!
If Miss Lu was sent back to the Lu Mansion, her appearance would naturally be revealed, but Gu Yi did not want to give up any possibility of getting the Chen Xi Xiang.
Forget it, Miss Lu is faking her death this time, so let’s just trick her first.
Time was urgent and Gu Yi couldn't take care of much.
"Second brother, there is news that the Lu Mansion has Chen Xixiang, and we want to try our luck." Gu Yi gave a simple explanation.
"Really?" Gu Tingjun was also very happy after hearing this, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go quickly!"
"Wait, second brother, we still need to make some preparations."
Seeing his little sister's mysterious look, Gu Tingjun didn't ask any more questions.
My younger sister always has her own ideas, so I'm sure she has come up with some good ideas.
On the other side, Master Nian Ci asked An An to wipe off the medicine on Lu Mei's face first.
As the clear water covered it, the face that originally belonged to Miss Lu was completely revealed.
Master Nian Ci had already prepared the medicine for fake death and winked at Xiao An An beside him.
"Yes, sir!" A certain small magic grass straightened its leaves secretly, and while Lu Mei was not paying attention, it rinsed the small leaves in the medicine bowl.
Hehehe, that’s good!
With this little magic grass like me around, no one will find out that Sister Piao Niang’s death was faked!
Little An An thought with great pride.
"Hey, Miss Lu, the medicine is ready." Master Nianci brought the medicine bowl and said, "After you drink this medicine, it will take effect in a few moments. Miss Lu, are you ready?"
Lu Mei looked at the black medicine in Master Nian Ci's hand, nodded solemnly, then took the medicine bowl and drank it all.
After a while, Lu Mei was lying on the bed, her face was pale and she was no longer breathing.
Everyone immediately rushed to bring Lu Mei to the Lu Mansion.
Father Lu, who was running around in a panic at home, was getting angry and kept cursing: "That unfilial daughter! I raised her up with good food and drink! But she ran away when I needed her!"
Lu's father had no feelings for Lu Mei's mother to begin with, and after Lu's mother passed away, he openly married her stepmother. His heart was completely biased.
In the Lu Mansion, the stepmother knew more or less about Lu Mei's torture, but she chose to turn a blind eye.
"Master, Master!" the servant came hurriedly to report.
"What are you doing! Are there ghosts chasing you?" Lu Fu was so angry that he had no place to vent his anger, and this happened to be the moment of trouble.
"Yes, someone said that the eldest lady has been found!" The servant told Father Lu immediately without even catching his breath.
"What!" Father Lu waved his sleeves and hurried to the front hall.
The few people who were led into the front hall were waiting for Lu's father to come when Xiao Xiancao looked left and right.
"What's wrong, Xiaocao?" Jin Li lowered his head and touched the leaves of the little fairy grass, and asked softly.
A certain fairy grass said seriously, "I want to wait and see if he is exactly like the unfaithful man described in the storybook."
When I was in heaven, the fairy sisters all told me that it was written in the notebook of human affairs that a poor scholar passed the imperial examination and became the top scorer, and the next step would be to marry the daughter of the prime minister!
Suddenly, a picture flashed through Xiao Anan's mind.
"Little Koi..." Little Fairy Grass said hesitantly, "Did I also see someone pass the exam and become the top scorer?"
However, the image flashed through my mind so quickly that I couldn't catch it in time.
After saying this, Jin Li looked down at Xiao An An, and for a moment he said nothing, but kept stroking the leaves of the little fairy grass: "Yes, little grass."
Seeing An An covering her own leaves with a headache from thinking about it, Jin Li comforted her, "Don't worry, An An, you'll remember it."
The whispered conversation between the two naturally did not attract the attention of Gu Yi and Master Nian Ci.
"Little sister, who is this woman?" Gu Tingjun stared at Lu Mei covered with a white cloth, confused.
Gu Yi was about to explain, but was unexpectedly interrupted by the visitor.
"But what little girls did you find?" Father Lu looked at everyone calmly and found that they were well dressed and probably came from wealthy families.
"Yes, Mr. Lu, we were passing by here and unexpectedly found your beloved daughter, but..." Gu Yi paused at the right time and motioned for Father Lu to look down.
Father Lu lowered his head and saw Lu Mei covered with a white cloth. He reached out his hand and lifted the cloth with trembling hands, as if he couldn't believe it.
She is really my eldest daughter!
Father Lu was shocked and cried out in pain: "Ah! My daughter! My poor daughter!"
Gu Yi and others watched Lu's father's show coldly.
If he really cared about his daughter, why would he be so indifferent to her life? How could you even have the heart to marry your daughter to a man in his seventies?
Now it's just a pretense!
"Xue'er, my Xue'er!"
When Gu Tingjun saw the face under the white cloth, he felt as if he was struck by lightning. The white cloth reminded Gu Tingjun of the time when his wife died, and he kept muttering.
Just as he was about to pounce, he was stopped by Jiang He who was quick-eyed and quick-handed.
"Little koi!" An An on the side immediately noticed Gu Tingjun's abnormality, shook the leaves, and a trace of spiritual power flew towards Gu Tingjun.
Gu Tingjun's eyes were covered with spiritual power and soon regained clarity.
Looking at Lu Mei who was lying there, he didn't react much.
When Gu Yi and Master Nian Ci saw Gu Tingjun's initial reaction, they thought something was wrong. Just as they were about to stop him, they saw that Gu Tingjun's eyes had regained clarity and he looked at Lu Mei as if he was a stranger.
The two of them looked at An An as if they sensed something.
A certain little fairy grass straightened its leaves: Hehehe, no poking, just dry your food!
