Chapter 2035: Lu Xiaoyue's Ghost
She threw off the quilt, stood up, walked into the yard, and heard a noise coming from the front yard.
"What's going on?" Wan Shufang grabbed a maid and asked. The little maid hesitated and seemed a little embarrassed, but under Wan Shufang's coercion, she still told the truth.
"Madam, someone is looking for you outside. She said... that the master abandoned his wife and children after having an affair with her."
As she spoke, the little maid knelt on the ground in fear, her body trembling slightly. After hearing these words, Wan Shufang guessed who the visitor was almost instantly.
"Changli, your peach blossom debt is here again." She held her forehead helplessly, took Chen Changli's hand and walked out of the yard. Soon she saw Lu Xiaoyue rolling around in front of the Qin family's door.
She insisted that Chen Changli take responsibility, and she cried while telling the story. It was so pitiful!
Even the onlookers were dissatisfied with Chen Changli and Wan Shufang, and cursed them for going too far.
Lu Xiaoyue got up from the ground, her expression twisted as she rushed towards the Qin family servant, grabbing his collar and angrily scolding him: "You Qin family are so protective of Chen Changli, are you also like him, bullying decent women? You officials are too bullying, you are just protecting each other!"
Ever since she couldn't find protection in the court, Lu Xiaoyue knew that she couldn't rely on the government. She had to use the rumors of the people to force Chen Changli to agree.
Just as Lu Xiaoyue was stunned, the voice that made her resent day and night suddenly rang out.
"Lu Xiaoyue, you really are haunting me."
She looked up and saw Chen Changli and Wan Shufang appear together. She became even more angry and started to curse: "Wan Shufang, you bitch, and Chen Changli, you ungrateful bastard, you rogue!"
"Everyone, it was this couple who teamed up to deceive me, made me lose my innocence, and got me pregnant. Now they have abandoned me. How am I, an orphan, going to survive with a child?"
As she spoke, she started to cry miserably again. The onlookers didn't understand why, but were bewitched by her and filled with indignation.
"My Lord, even though you have the power and influence, you cannot bully others like this."
"She is an orphan. You have harmed her to this extent. She will definitely not survive. You are forcing her to death."
"Chen Changli, if you still have a little conscience, I don't want you to be responsible. You have to at least give me money so that I can support myself." Lu Xiaoyue pretended to wipe her tears and stroked her belly.
It was as if there was a child there.
Seeing how well she acted, Wan Shufang couldn't help but applaud: "Lu Xiaoyue, have you forgotten that I gave you a lot of money?"
"Let's not talk about the six hundred taels of gold. Just these few days, Chen Changli took you around Qiwu Town and bought you so many good things. The shopkeepers know every detail, right?"
Wan Shufang glanced at the crowd and saw many familiar faces, all of whom were the owners of those shops.
Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, someone stood up to speak for her.
"It seems to be true. I remember this girl. She has a hot temper, but she is generous. Everything she likes is not cheap, and it is all paid for by that young master."
"My family's jewelry is the same, and she also customized a pure gold phoenix crown..."
"She also took away the only floating brocade in my house." The shopkeepers all testified for Wan Shufang. Lu Xiaoyue was furious. She wanted to say that those things were fake, but she couldn't say it when the words came to her lips.
After all, the one in her hand was fake, but the one Chen Changli bought was the real one!
Seeing that she was speechless, Wan Shufang took advantage of the situation and pretended to be wronged, sobbing and wiping away tears: "Lu Xiaoyue, why do you want to confuse right and wrong and ask for money and property? Isn't it enough that we have given you so much?"
After saying that, she looked at the famous doctor in Qiwu Town in the crowd and said, "Doctor Sun, is she really pregnant? Please take her pulse. If she is of the Duke's bloodline, we can't drive her away..."
As soon as these words were spoken, the people immediately followed suit and asked Doctor Sun to take their pulses.
Lu Xiaoyue felt guilty for a moment, and she hesitated, refusing to let the doctor touch her.
Seeing this, there was nothing the people could not understand. Lu Xiaoyue was not pregnant at all. The people who had been used as a pawn by her came to their senses and turned their attention to Lu Xiaoyue.
"Okay, I thought you were a good person, but you turned out to be a liar."
"Bah, you're still trying to cheat people out of money, and you're not afraid to destroy your own innocence, bitch."
The backlash came and Lu Xiaoyue was scolded to pieces. She was immediately angry, but also afraid of being besieged by so many people, so she gritted her teeth, pushed the crowd away and ran away.
Seeing her escape, Wan Shufang breathed a sigh of relief and said a few words symbolically in front of the people. Then the two returned to the Qin family. Seeing Qin Wenxuan, Wan Shufang felt a little apologetic: "I'm sorry, Minister Qin, for causing trouble for the Qin family for no reason."
Hearing this, Qin Wenxuan knew she was talking about Lu Xiaoyue, and quickly waved his hand: "It's okay, it's not a big deal."
"Sir, I plan to open a school. Qiwu Town is vast and populated, but lacks talent training. I would like to ask you and Madam to help give me some suggestions."
Qin Wenxuan looked serious. This was the conclusion he had drawn from his observations over the past few days. If the Qin family was to last long, no road should be left unpaved.
Now that Qin Tianci is dead, opening a school and selecting new talents can assist the Qin family and the court. So even if Qin Wenxuan has selfish motives, Chen Changli and Wan Shufang both agree to opening a school.
Several people returned to the room to discuss specific matters, and Chen Changli and Wan Shufang also gave their opinions.
Soon, the plan was finalized, and several people went out to choose a location. The coachman watched them go out, and since no one was at the Qin family, he impatiently returned to the side yard.
"Madam, is your injury feeling better?" He whispered, pushing open the door and nimbly walking into the room.
Feng Yingying was wearing a veil on her face. When she saw the groom, she was stunned for a moment: "What are you doing here? The family is not peaceful now. Didn't I tell you not to come these days?"
Ever since Chen Changli and Wan Shufang came, Feng Yingying and the coachman have become much more restrained. She always felt uneasy, so she waved her hand to chase them away.
"Get out now, or someone will see you."
"Ma'am, don't worry. They are all out. The eldest young master wants to open an academy and went out to choose a site. I personally watched them leave. I was worried about your injury, so I wanted to come and see you."
The groom said this, and came up to her cheerfully, massaging her shoulders and legs, turning her on like crazy.
Their bodies had already been compatible. Feng Yingying originally refused and insisted that he leave, but as they talked, they rolled onto the bed without realizing it.
The atmosphere in the room suddenly became hot.
At the same time, Qin Wenxuan and his companions returned, bringing with them the old couple of the Qin family and the great-grandfather of the Qin family.
Everyone standing at the door of the side courtyard, listening to the dirty words inside, their faces turned ugly. They didn't say anything, and the people in the house were unaware and continued to act crazy and unscrupulously.
"Madam, who is stronger, me or the Second Young Master?"
