Transmigrated Farmgirl’s Scheme to Get Rich - CH 112
When the four of them came out of the building, they heard the idiot lying on the ground snorting like he was about to wake up. Mo Yan tugged on Lu Junming’s sleeve, and said to Zhong Cheng, “Throw this idiot on the bed too. It’d be best to strip him.” [1]
The two looked at each other and smiled, thinking this was a good idea. They dragged him into the house and threw him on the bed, stripping him. Then, they put him next to the woman and covered them with a quilt.
The four successfully retraced their steps and walked out.
The city gates had closed by then, so they decided to stay at the place Zhong Cheng kept his carriage for a night and go home tomorrow. They no longer had to be worried about Mo Zenian’s employer, since they wouldn’t dare try and take Mo Ling forcibly in broad daylight. After all, they wouldn’t want to expose their dirty deeds.
Mo Ling was really frightened this time. No matter how aggressive she usually was, she had never experienced something like this! If she had been taken advantage of by that fool today, she wouldn’t want to live anymore.
Since they had left in a hurry, they didn’t have much money on them, so they pooled their money for two guest rooms, and bought some food with the rest of it.
Mo Yan didn’t know how to comfort her sister, so Lu Junming told her to go out. Zhong Cheng and Mo Ling were left in the room.
Mo Ling threw herself into Zhong Cheng’s arms and burst into tears, “How can I have such an inhuman father? Zhong Cheng…do you look down on me?”
Zhong Cheng gently patted her on the back and comforted her,”It’s not your fault It’s all over, and we’ll go home at dawn. The matchmaker has already agreed with your mother on the marriage. Let’s choose an auspicious day to get married when we go back.”
In another room, Lu Junming and Mo Yan looked at each other silently, and Lu Junming suddenly patted himself on the shoulder, “If you want to cry, I’ll lend you my shoulder too.”
Mo Yan moved closer to him, and he moved his shoulder forward. Then, she reached out and pinched his upper arm, “You still have the mood to joke, detestable!”
The pain was so great that Lu Junming covered his arm to protect it, “You’re so cruel, this will definitely bruise.” He rolled up his sleeves to look at it but couldn’t see it, so asked Mo Yan to help him, and she tried to pinch him again. He was scared into rolling his sleeves back down.
After such an eventful day, Mo Yan was too sleepy to keep her eyes open. She yawned and wanted to go back to her sister’s room, but Lu Junming said, “Brother Cheng hasn’t come back yet, so your sister hasn’t slept yet. Don’t return and spoil the mood.”
“But I’m sleepy!”
“Just sleep here, there are two beds anyway.”
Mo Yan was so sleepy that she didn’t even want to take a single step. She fell asleep instantly, Lu Junming had to help her take off her shoes and cover her with a blanket.
The early morning of the next day, Mo Yan was awakened by loud footsteps outside. No one who stays in an inn would sleep in late, they all have to get on the road or do business.
She sat up and realised there was no one else in the room. Just as she was about to panic, Lu Junming walked in with two bowls of dried tofu and two biscuits.
“Come and eat something!”
Mo Yan got out of bed and adjusted her clothes and hair, “Did I sleep here last night?”
Lu Junming nodded.
“Then…” She pointed to the room next to her.
Lu Junming said, “They’ve stayed there the entire night, so they must’ve done the deed.”
Mo Yan went over and slapped him on the shoulder, “That’s nonsense. We were in the same room last night, did we do the deed?”
“The two of us didn’t, but we can’t be so sure with them!”
“Don’t talk nonsense, tell them to get up and hurry.”
After hastily washing up and having breakfast, they checked out of the rooms and prepared to go home.
Lu Junming led the horse towards Mu Yan and smiled strangely, “How about we go for a walk before going back?”
“What is there to do in a small city like this?”
“Let’s go shopping!” He winked weirdly, and Mo Yan thought for a moment before realising, “You want to see the drama of the Hu family?” Lu Junming nodded.
Zhong Cheng and Mo Ling weren’t in the mood to watch, so they got into the carriage and left first. Lu Junming waved at them, “Our horse is fast, we’ll catch up to you.”
The two of them strolled up to Mo Zenian’s courtyard, and saw him coaxing his son, “Be good, Zheng’er, and eat well. Your mother will be back soon.”
Mo Yan called out “Father” on a whim, and Mo Zenian opened his mouth wide in shock when he saw them standing at the door, “How did you find this place?”
“What’s so difficult? Yi City’s only so big. Did your woman not return last night?”
Mo Zenian pointed at them, “What did you do?”
Mo Yan pursed her lips and smiled, “What did you do, can you say it? Now your woman is probably the newest wife of the Hu family, and she won’t come back to you!”
“You, you!”
Mo Zenian couldn’t say anything. Who told him to harm his own daughter? His heart was too vicious, and that woman got what she deserves.
Mo Yan turned around and said to Lu Junming, “Let’s go to the Hu mansion.”
The two left, leaving Mu Zenian standing there blankly, the child tightly clutching his robes.
After a while, he ran to the Hu mansion with the child in his arms, and the two of them trailed behind him.
However, Mo Zenian was stopped by the gatekeeper. Mo Zenian hastily said, “I’m manager Mo, I’m looking for my boss.”
The gatekeeper, “My employer has ordered us to not let you enter. From now on, you are no longer his employee.”
“Why? Where’s Xian’er? Is Xian’er in there? I’m looking for my wife!”
The doorman pushed him hard, staggering him, “Your wife isn’t here. Lin Xian’er is the second young mistress of our family.”
Mo Yan hadn’t been lying! Mo Zenian turned around, and Mu Yan and Lu Junming were standing there looking at him. The child in his arms asked, “Dad, where is my mum? I want to find my mum.”
Mo Zenian said bitterly, “You don’t have a mother, she’s dead!”
The child burst into tears, crying for her mother.
Lu Junming looked at Mo Yan beside him. She was still smiling, without a trace of pity on her face. He said with sadness in his tone, “Yan’er, that child is so pitiful!”
Mo Yan’s reply was flat and cold, “I only see my father a few days a year, but he accompanies him every day. How can he be pitiful? There must be a lot of drama after the caretakers woke up last night. His mother could’ve gone home to find her own child, but she didn’t and chose to stay. She didn’t even want her own child.”
Lin Xian’er was originally a widow who lost her husband early on in life, and later became a prostitute for a living. After she met Mo Zenian, she became his mistress.
After that fool woke up last night, the caretakers who had been knocked out woke up before he could do anything. They yelled a few times and summoned the guards, and Hu Weiming and his wife also came.
He sent his mother-in-law inside to see, and saw that Mo Ling had been replaced by Lin Xian’er, and that idiot was sexually assaulting her. The mother-in-law let Lin Xian’er go, and she ran into the yard crying, yelling that she’d report to the officials and accuse them of sexually assaulting her.
Hu Weiming ordered someone to catch her, and that idiot chased her out of the house in dishevelled clothes, crying to his father for a daughter-in-law. Hu Weiming looked at his fool of a son. If he couldn’t get married this time, he would act even more foolishly, but what woman would be willing to marry him!
Then, he looked at Lin Xian’er. She was only three or four years older than his idiot son, and she looked relatively pretty. Although she came from a bad background and had already given birth, as long as she married him voluntarily and wasn’t suicidal, that’d be fine.
Post-edit notes: The face-slapping was so satisfying. Thank you for reading! Let’s hope for even more face-slapping!
