Chapter 141 Clearly an Auspicious Omen
Lu Xinran's gaze followed her and lingered on those people.
Lu Xinling was a clever girl. Seeing her second sister's expression, she guessed that she definitely didn't know the names of those people.
"The ones wearing light-colored dresses are the second and third girls Xing Yuhe and Xing Yuqi from the residence of the Minister of Justice. The other two are from the residence of the Minister of Personnel."
She paused slightly here and suddenly forgot the names of the two girls.
Fortunately, Lu Xinran's system can automatically complete these. When she clicked on Xing Yuhe's booklet, the names of the other people appeared.
[Hey, isn't the second young lady from the Vice Minister's residence a quiet person? How come she, who doesn't talk much to people she knows well, suddenly hits it off with those two people from the Zhang family? ]
Flipping through the booklet, Lu Xinran finally realized something was wrong.
A strange thought suddenly came into her mind.
[Is it that poisonous insect that is causing trouble again? But if this thing is really so effective, why doesn't Wang use this insect on the adults? ]
[If only someone had developed a liking for Zhang's elder brother, he would have been promoted and made a fortune long ago! ]
Lu Xinran's mind was full of wonder, and Lu Xinlan, who heard her thoughts, was even more confused, but unfortunately, there were too few clues and contacts.
[Forget it, I don’t want to think about it anymore. I’ll know everything when I see Wang later.]
Everyone who heard the inner voice: "?!!"
So, where is Wang?
Wang, who was being rejected by several ladies, was feeling unwilling and resentful, when suddenly she felt that everyone was looking at her eagerly again.
She had felt this weirdness since she arrived at Xu's house today, but it would become more obvious now.
After receiving the news, Xu had someone come to lead her to the dining hall.
Wang glanced at the fabric on the guide nanny's body. The servants in the Xu family were dressed better than her!
The persimmon red jacket with gold patterns and beige piping she was wearing was made five years ago, and the collar and cuffs were already worn out.
But the Zhang family had been having an increasingly difficult time in recent years. Ever since they severed ties with Zhang, who had married into the Minister's mansion, their lives had been getting worse day by day.
And those poisonous insects that were to be used at the critical moment ate up most of their savings.
If they cannot help their two granddaughters marry into rich families, the Zhang family will be completely ruined.
Thinking of this, the image of Qian's outfit in the hall appeared before her eyes.
Mrs. Zhang!
If her daughter had married Qi Shouzheng back then, she would definitely not be as shabby as she is now.
All kinds of chaotic and unwilling feelings flashed through her mind, and she walked into the hall hesitantly under the concerned gazes of everyone.
Why is everyone looking at her weirdly?
Her back is a little stiff, no... Did you notice that her collar had to be replaced because it was worn out?
As soon as Lu Xinran entered Wang's house, she started flipping through her booklet with shining eyes.
[Let me see what Wang did to her two granddaughters! ]
[I'd better start from the beginning~ This way I won't miss any information, and I can also see if the bug is really that capable! ]
She has developed a strong curiosity about the Miaojiang Gu worm and always feels that if this thing is really that good... then it would have ruled the world long ago!
[Zhang had a distant relative who couldn't make ends meet in her hometown, so she brought her family to Beijing to seek refuge with her.]
[She was too lazy to pay attention to it at first, but the man's wife escaped from Miaojiang and knew a little about raising Gu. Knowing that she was interested and in order to stay in the capital, she told her about it.]
[So the person was not specially sought out, but was sent to the door by someone? ]
As she flipped through the booklet, she felt strange. The content she had seen before was clearly not this. Could it be that she had seen it wrong?
Forget it, eating melon is more important!
[I don't know if that person was exaggerating, but he said it was a lie and helped Zhang regain her slim figure before giving birth within half a month, so Zhang believed it without a doubt.]
Low exclamations echoed in the hall, and many people couldn't help but look towards Wang.
Wang felt more and more uncomfortable as she was being stared at. She pulled at her sleeves for fear that others would see the scratches on them.
Lu Xinran also took a sneak peek and saw that the other person was nearly sixty years old, but still had black hair, rosy cheeks, and a slim figure, and he was deeply moved.
If it can help you lose weight quickly, then this bug is not a monster at all, it is clearly a good omen!
[Wang originally did not have much ambition. She initially wanted her daughter to be healthy and live a long life. Later, she found that the poisonous insects were not omnipotent, so she wanted her to marry into the Qi family.]
[As a result, her expectations were all dashed one after another, and her daughter used radical means to commit suicide, which twisted her heart.]
[Hmm, so the one Qi Shouzheng ate was not a complete one! ]
[According to what that person said, it takes at least one to two years to grow a Gu worm. She started preparing it in anger after she found out that Zhang had shown it to Qi Shouzheng. Only half a year had passed before Qi Shouzheng ate it.]
[Well, it seems that the Qi family has bad genes! ]
Qi Shouzheng, who was suddenly mentioned, greeted his colleagues' seemingly concerned but actually inquiring gazes with an expressionless face.
At this moment, he was filled with anger that Zou wanted his daughter to get married!
Although he doesn't dare to consider himself a good husband, he claims to be a good father.
Although he was disappointed when his eldest daughter was born, she was his first child and he gave her the most love. He also loved to hear her call him "Daddy" sweetly after finishing his work.
How could he not be angry when his daughter, whom he had raised with great care, was being cared for and "ruined" by someone else?
When something happened in the mansion of Lord Rong'en, Concubine Shu was sentenced to death and the eldest prince lost his power!
Now that Sun Linyuan has lost his daughter who was a concubine in the palace, the Sun family is now like being roasted on the fire.
Today is different from the past!
What he didn't dare to dream about before, he now dares to think about.
If the Sun family dared to look down on him and his daughter like that, then he would dare to pull Sun Linyuan down and let himself have a taste of what it feels like to be a Shangshu!
Qi Shouzheng was furious in his heart, but he listened to Lu Xinran's words at the same time.
[After discovering that Qi Shouzheng had been childless for many years and that he could not accept a concubine, she became convinced of the efficacy of the Gu worm.]
[She had raised a few before, and took advantage of Zhang Chengju's banquet to get them on him. She originally wanted to control him to get Zhang Chengju promoted, but after trying several times, it didn't work.]
[After she lost her temper at her relatives, she changed her mind.]
[She spent ten years raising two worms and put them on her two granddaughters. These worms have no other use except to make people who come into contact with them feel extremely fond of them.]
[No wonder those people wanted to dig their hearts out, is this considered being bewitched? ]
Her voice was full of doubts, and everyone looked at the two girls sitting next to Wang. They couldn't help but fall in love with them at first sight!
