Chapter 47 Deceiving Zhang Yuping



The siblings ran away, and Lu Yuan also pulled Wen Moxue back into the room.

"Did you buy these things? You can even buy chocolate at the commune?"

Wen Moxue looked at the contents of the net bag and asked curiously.

Lu Yuan handed her the net bag, saying, "I didn't buy it. It was given to you by Dr. Gao from the health center to thank you for the medicine you donated."

Wen Muxue was surprised, "I only gave him such a small packet of medicine, and he gave me so many nice things?"

This is really embarrassing.

Lu Yuandao said, "He also wants you to go to the health center to help check the medicine they've prepared. He's worried that it's not as effective as the medicine you give him, so he has to send you more gifts to please you first."

"He who takes a man's gift is bound to be grateful," and since they had given her so many good things, Wen Moxue readily agreed.

"Okay, I'll go to the health center tomorrow."

She also went to check on Grandpa Liu's condition. Logically speaking, even if he hadn't woken up, his condition shouldn't be any more serious.

"By the way, you were the one who got involved in Sun Changsheng's affair."

I've been wanting to talk to Lu Yuan about this all morning, and now that I've seen him, I can't wait to bring it up.

Lu Yuan could pretend to be stupid with others, but he couldn't deny it in front of this girl.

After all, she gave him the things.

He nodded and hummed in agreement.

Wen Muxue was very curious, "How did you do that?"

Lu Yuan didn't hide anything from her and told her in a low voice, "I just went to their house and buried the things while they were all asleep at night."

It sounds simple, but Wen Moxue knows it's not easy to do.

He gave him a thumbs up, saying, "I never knew you had such a knack for petty theft."

Lu Yuan was speechless. "I'll take that as a compliment."

Wen Moxue chuckled, "I was just praising you."

Lu Yuan stopped arguing with her.

"I haven't eaten yet, could you get me something to eat?"

Wen Moxue immediately opened the box.

"Why didn't you say so earlier? I thought you ate at the commune."

Turning to him, I asked, "There are some meat buns left from this morning. Do you want to eat the buns, or should I cook you noodles?"

"Let's have steamed buns."

Lu Yuan felt that if he didn't eat it soon in this hot weather, it would spoil.

"Aren't you afraid it will spoil if you keep it in the box?"

"Don't worry, it won't spoil in a day," Wen Moxue replied casually.

I thought to myself, no matter how long I leave it, it won't spoil.

After taking five large meat buns, Lu Yuan followed her out of the house.

Lu Guoqing and Lu Xiaofang were nowhere to be seen in the main room; they had probably gone to work.

Zhang Yuping was doing needlework with her head down.

Judging from the obvious slap mark on his face, he's probably too ashamed to go out and embarrass himself.

Lu Yuan's eyes darted around. Instead of following the fake wife into the kitchen, he moved a stool and sat down next to Zhang Yuping.

"Little sister, I'm mending my father's clothes."

Zhang Yuping didn't say anything, but silently rolled her eyes. It was obvious.

Lu Yuan didn't need her answer and continued casually.

"Young lady, why did the captain look at you with such hatred when he was arrested? He even told you to wait, but what were you waiting for?"

Although Sun Changsheng has now been cleared of suspicion of harming Grandpa Liu, his relationship with Zhang Yuping is certainly not entirely innocent.

He was certain that the two of them had conspired to frame him.

They wouldn't team up to do this if they didn't have some connection.

The two probably have something on each other.

After realizing he was beyond saving, Sun Changsheng will most likely try to drag Zhang Yuping down with him.

"hiss--"

Zhang Yuping flinched and pricked her hand with the needle.

Feeling guilty, he said, "How would I know? I guess you offended him last time. He was looking at you, not me."

"hehe."

Lu Yuan smiled.

"Young lady, you're the one who offended me last time, aren't you? You were the one who had the brigade leader report me on your behalf, swearing that I had hidden something, but we couldn't find it, yet we found it at the brigade leader's house."

Do you think Sun Changsheng might feel like you're playing him? He's beyond saving anyway, do you think he might drag you down with him?

Zhang Yuping had actually thought of all this long ago, and had been feeling uneasy all day. Now that Lu Yuan had said it so bluntly, she became even more anxious.

My hands were shaking so badly that I couldn't continue doing needlework.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan was satisfied.

“Young lady, no matter what, we are family. If Sun Changsheng has any dirt on you, tell him sooner rather than later so we can come up with a solution.”

Zhang Yuping looked at him in surprise, her eyes seeming to ask: Are you that kind?

Lu Yuan understood the meaning in her eyes; of course, he wasn't being kind.

If he has any dirt on someone, he should reveal it so he can act on behalf of Heaven sooner.

"Sigh, even if we don't care about the monk, we should at least consider the Buddha. If something really happens to you, our whole family will suffer, and we'll never be able to hold our heads up again."

"Besides, Xiaojun is still so young. If he doesn't have a mother to take care of him, I, as his older brother, will have to worry about him. It's troublesome."

Hearing him say that, Zhang Yuping began to believe that he genuinely wanted to help her.

But how could she bring up her relationship with Sun Changsheng?

Even if she says that, she still won't escape her fate.

Lu Yuan saw her dilemma and continued to coax her, "If anything really happens, don't be afraid. If you can pin it on Sun Changsheng, then pin it on him. If you can't pin it on him, then say that you were instigated or coerced by him."

These words were like a wake-up call, and Zhang Yuping's eyes suddenly lit up.

Yes, she was coerced, she was the victim, she was the aggrieved party.

But this would definitely ruin his reputation, and his future would likely be difficult.

After a moment of contemplation, she finally spoke.

“A Yuan, I know a secret about Sun Changsheng. Try to go to the Revolutionary Committee to see him and tell him that if he really holds a grudge against me for what happened last time and dragged me down with him, I will tell him his secret.”

Lu Yuan asked, "What secret?"

Zhang Yuping glanced at him, clearly not entirely trusting him.

Lu Yuan shrugged. "If you don't give me more specific details, how can Sun Changsheng believe you really have a secret?"

Zhang Yuping said, "Just tell me about Sun Ziqiang. If I reveal this secret, the entire Sun family will be utterly disgraced."

Lu Yuan blinked. What had Sun Ziqiang done to make the entire Sun family lose face?

"Young lady, we're in cahoots, can't you just tell me this secret?"

Zhang Yuping shook her head, "I'm worried that if I tell you, Sun Changsheng won't believe me."

Alright, it's probably impossible for them to tell me the secret now. Looks like I'll have to find out from somewhere else, or try to get information out of them later.

"I'll go to the Revolutionary Committee this afternoon and give them some money."

"What do you need money and tickets for?" Zhang Yuping blurted out.

“What kind of place is the Revolutionary Committee? I can see people just by saying I want to. You have to grease some palms.”

Zhang Yuping blurted out, "Doesn't your wife have a lot of good stuff?"

Lu Yuan rolled his eyes. "I'm doing this for you. You think I'd run errands and produce something? You're dreaming!"

Zhang Yuping's face flushed red and then turned pale. Finally, she reluctantly went inside and took five yuan.
