Chapter 1268: Miss Cousin Does Not Want to Be Entrusted to Her (13)
The original owner was isolated and helpless in Wanqu Villa. She was betrayed and despised by her fiancé, accused and bullied by everyone, and her cousin Zhou Wei, who was regarded as a relative, stabbed her in the back and forced her to become a concubine. She soon became depressed and fell ill in bed.
After her two loyal servants were beaten to death after angrily scolding those who spoke ill of her, the original owner could no longer bear it and died.
Everyone was happy when she died. There was no longer any obstacle between Wei Ning and the chivalrous woman, and they soon got married happily and spent lavishly - using the Jin family's money.
Wei Ning and Zhou Weishi didn't think there was anything wrong with it. After all, they had taken good care of Jin Shichu as promised. It was just that she died of illness. What did it have to do with them? It was just her own bad luck.
When Jin Shichu thought of the original owner's fate in the original world and saw Wei Ning, the culprit who was now unconscious and caused the original owner's tragic fate, he wanted to take revenge on the spot, let alone save him.
So she added a handful of sleeping pills, so that he would fall into a coma more completely. This dose of medicine would ensure that he would not wake up for three days.
I don’t know if he has been lucky in the past three days. If not, and some large wild beast smells the blood on his body, I don’t know what will happen to him.
If he was lucky and didn't encounter any large wild beasts, then he wouldn't have died. However, the injury on his body had lasted for three days and it must have seriously damaged his vitality and even destroyed the foundation of his body.
Jin Shichu felt particularly at ease about not saving Wei Ning's life.
After Jin Shichu drugged him, he kicked him hard several times, one of which hit him right in the "center", hoping that he could still use it when he met that chivalrous woman in the future.
After knowing the source of the bloody smell, Jin Shichu left without looking back.
When she returned to the chestnut tree, Zhichun was still picking chestnuts with great interest, and the cloth bag was almost full.
"Okay, Zhichun, we've picked up enough. It's time for us to go down the mountain. If we don't leave now, it will be dark by the time we get back to the mountain behind the academy, and Dad will be worried." Jin Shichu reminded her.
After hearing this, Zhichun was reluctant to leave the chestnuts on the ground, but Jin Shichu was right. They couldn't stay in the mountain for too long, so she picked up a chestnut at hand and said, "Okay, let's go back now."
The master and servant returned home with a full load.
Jin Shichu went down the mountain early. In addition to being afraid of the dark and Jin Xiangrong's worry, there was another reason, which was that she didn't want to be implicated by Wei Ning. After all, he was injured and there was a strong smell of blood. If he really attracted a large wild beast, the two "weak women" would not be able to bear it.
Jin Shichu drugged him, not only to teach him a lesson and avenge the original owner, but also because she didn't want Wei Ning to "happen" to wake up when she found the cave, and then rely on her to save him, otherwise she would be very angry.
Don't think that Jin Shichu is just worrying over nothing. According to the nature of the world consciousness, Wei Ning was suddenly injured and unconscious in the deep mountains and forests, and he happened to go up the mountain that day. No matter how you look at it, it seems like a rescue behavior made by the world consciousness to maintain the original plot. The purpose is to let himself and Wei Ning get acquainted. It would be best if he fell in love with Wei Ning at first sight and tried his best to treat him. Then the subsequent plot would be logical: he fell in love with Wei Ning, and although Wei Ning had no feelings for him, he still agreed to marry her in order to repay his life-saving grace, so everything returned to the trajectory of the meta-world plot... Of course, it would be best if Jin Xiangrong had another life-threatening accident recently, which would be even more in line with it...
When Jin Shichu thought of this, her heart suddenly tightened and she immediately became alert. It seemed that she had to pay special attention to Jin Xiangrong's life safety during this period of time. Who knew what the world consciousness would do in desperation to change the original plot trajectory?
She originally thought that if she cured Jin Xiangrong's illness and saved his life, he would naturally have nothing to do with Zhou Weishi and Wei Ning. The father and daughter would be able to escape their original fate and live happily in their own lives. However, she did not expect that Wei Ning, who was far away in Wanqu Villa, came to the capital even without Jin Xiangrong's initiative to contact him.
Jin Shichu was very angry. She thought that after she rescued Jin Xiangrong, she would have no worries and could just lie down and live a life of luxury. But now it was clear that the world was not willing to let her live a peaceful life and had to drag her into this world as a stepping stone for the hero and heroine. Why? Did the heroine need money and had to kill off her family and give them her property for nothing?
Bah! Jin Shichu was so angry that he spat fiercely and raised his middle finger to the sky. You want me to be a cannon fodder villain? Dream on!
While cursing the heavens, Wei Ning and Zhou Wei in his heart, Jin Shichu quickly went down the mountain and returned to Qingyang Academy.
"Dad!" Jin Shichu returned to Jin Xiangrong's small courtyard, wanting to find him. After turning around, he didn't see anyone. He only found Zhai Yuecheng writing in the study with his head down.
"The teacher is still teaching. He will be back in about an incense stick of time." When Zhai Yuecheng saw her come in, he put down his pen and said to her.
Jin Shichu didn't expect that he was still here. She was a little surprised. She glanced at the paper in front of him and found that it was covered with densely written words. She felt her scalp tingling and quickly looked away.
Seeing her like this, Zhai Yuecheng couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, with a smile in his eyes, and deliberately said: "I just wrote a policy paper, do you want to take a look, Junior Sister?"
Jin Shichu quickly took a step back, shook his head like a rattle, and said, "No, no! How can I understand something as profound as a policy paper? Brother, you really think too highly of me."
"Junior sister, you don't have to be so modest. As the teacher's daughter, you must have been deeply influenced by him and have profound knowledge..." Zhai Yuecheng spoke more modestly and gently, "I also want you to help me and give me some advice."
Jin Shichu's eyes widened, feeling guilty, and he said hastily, "Brother, you are joking. I really didn't inherit any of my father's knowledge or talent. I am an unlearned person, how dare I teach you?"
The smile in Zhai Yuecheng's eyes became more intense, but in order to prevent Jin Shichu from seeing it, he tried his best to hold back the laughter that was about to burst out of his throat, and pretended to be serious and said: "Junior sister, you are really too modest."
"Hehe..." Jin Shichu knew his own situation and quickly changed the subject and asked him, "Brother, you suddenly started writing policy essays. Do you also want to start taking the imperial examinations?"
"Yes, I am just a scholar, and the imperial examination is the foundation for me to gain a foothold." Zhai Yuecheng nodded, and then he asked Jin Shichu casually, "Junior sister, do you think that I am taking the imperial examination for fame and fortune?"
"Of course not! How could you think so, senior brother? As a scholar, can't we take the imperial examination and become an official for the sake of our country and the world? Of course, even if it is really for fame and fortune, there is nothing wrong with it. How many people in this world live not for fame and fortune?" Jin Shichu said seriously.
