"I'm only telling you this because we have a good relationship. This 'prenatal essence' refers to pregnancy..."
"If a woman's baby starts eating vegetarian food and accumulating good karma while still in the womb, the child she gives birth to will be twice as smart as other children!"
The crowd listened with skepticism: "This...this can really work?"
"Whether it works or not, you'll only know after you try!" Qi Ran continued to persuade her, "You've just stayed in the village for too long, your horizons are too narrow. I came back from the city, and now everyone in the city does it this way!"
This time she was smarter. She found a mask to cover her face and didn't reveal her real identity to them. Even if something went wrong later, no one would trace it back to her.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but complain about Chen Qin and Gao Lin. If Chen Qin had been more discreet and Gao Lin had kept her mouth shut, the fire wouldn't have reached her.
Perhaps her resentment was too great, for in a daze she vaguely heard Chen Qin's voice. "You damned sister-in-law, even at this point, you're still unrepentant!"
Qi Ran was quite surprised to run into Chen Qin here, and subconsciously covered herself up even more tightly with her mask and hat: "Don't talk nonsense, I don't know any Qi Ran you're talking about!"
Without a word, Chen Qin rushed out. Before anyone could react, she roughly ripped off Qi Ran's mask and hat, saying, "Whether you're Qi Ran or not, just show your face and everyone will know!"
The mask and hat fell off, revealing Qi Ran's familiar face in the crowd.
A burst of laughter erupted: "Wow! Isn't this the seventh son of the Qi family? When did he become a city dweller?"
Qi Ran's face flushed crimson with embarrassment. The laughter and teasing of the crowd washed over her like a tidal wave. She stubbornly retorted, her face still red, "Even if I'm not from the city, what I said about being born vegetarian is true! If you don't listen to me, your children will only be idiots!"
"Qi Ran, even now, you still show no remorse!" Director Jiang stepped out, yanked off her hat, and glared at Qi Ran with eyes that practically spitting fire: "I thought you would tone it down after Gao Lin's incident and Chen Qin's punishment, but I didn't expect you to still be spreading such baseless and outrageous rumors everywhere!"
"Something happened? What happened?" An aunt in the crowd suddenly screamed. They had just been thinking about testing the effects of this birth canal extract, and now they heard that something had gone wrong.
"You don't know yet, do you? My good friend listened to Qi Ran's nonsense and ate vegetarian food all the time. In the end, she miscarried because her baby wasn't getting enough nutrition!" Director Jiang's anger surged again when she mentioned Gao Lin.
She had to take such a person back and educate her properly, otherwise she would only harm the public! After she finished speaking, the women's federation staff standing around her surrounded Qi Ran.
"You won't have to stay idle at home anymore. Come to our Women's Federation for daily education!" Director Jiang waved her hand, and the staff of the Women's Federation pulled Qi Ran away directly.
Chen Qin followed anxiously and asked, "Director Jiang, um... do I still need to pay my fine?"
Director Jiang stopped in his tracks upon hearing this: "I almost forgot. Qi Ran's 100 yuan fine is now on you. Because you have repeatedly ignored warnings and continued to spread such false information, the fine has been doubled!"
"What?" Qi Ran nearly fainted upon hearing about the fine. She was now filled with regret.
If she had paid the 100 yuan for Chen Qin earlier, she wouldn't have had everything exposed by Chen Qin and suffered a 200 yuan fine.
What's even more suffocating is that the system's voice is echoing in her mind again.
[Warning: Host's image in the eyes of others has worsened; Luck points deducted!]
At that moment, Qi Ran felt as if the words "deduct luck points" were haunting her like a ghost. Shen Qianqian, hiding in the crowd, watched the entire farce unfold before the system suddenly popped into her mind.
The sound came.
[Ding~ The system has upgraded again, detecting that the host has once again damaged the heroine's reputation!]
The specialty beverage making section is now open.
If Shen Qianqian knew that Qi Ran was struggling to improve her luck stat, she would definitely want to go up to her and show off.
We're both systems, so why is my upgrade process so fast?
After this incident, Qi Ran learned her lesson and became much more careful, since she had to go to the Women's Federation for training every day.
I don't have time to let her cause trouble.
Since the system isn't issuing any tasks right now, and she's busy studying, she doesn't have time to go find Shen Qianqian.
The trouble she was facing meant she had to shift the focus of her vegetarian diet to herself.
Eating only leafy greens every day... Qi Ran felt her face turning green!
Fortunately, after consuming the entire course of her pregnancy, she finally accumulated enough luck points to redeem the childbirth item in the shop.
pill.
After taking the fertility pill, Qi Qi swaggered up to Old Lady Li and said, "Mom, I'm telling you, I'm carrying our family's first big, fat grandson! You'd better prepare a gift for him and a reward for me."
Grandma Li rolled her eyes at her: "You stay at home eating vegetarian food every day, it's already a miracle that my grandson hasn't starved to death, and you still want a reward?"
Although she said that, she was actually considering what kind of gift would be appropriate for her eldest daughter-in-law if she really gave birth to a grandchild. The eldest daughter-in-law would be a great contributor to the family.
Lu Yuncheng's mind was now completely focused on the child in Qi Ran's belly, and upon hearing Old Madam Li's words...
He quickly whispered in Qi Ran's ear, afraid of upsetting his wife, "Don't worry, if Mom won't give it to you, I will!"
And so, the Lu family's life remained uneventful until Qi Ran gave birth.
