Chapter 26: Close, Karma is Coming
Mo Qianxue wasn’t a fool. She had guessed about the background of Ning Shaoqing when she lied awake in bed at night. Indeed, he was penniless right now, but the elegance and nobility he displayed by every of his gesture and movent shall never belong to an average person.
Perhaps just like those light novels and TV series, he might co from an extraordinary origin and be burdened with sea-deep plan of vengeance.
If she were wise and selfish enough, she should be thinking about how to earn money quick and to get rid of him as soon as possible.
The original owner of this body had a bizarre origin already. If he would also be greeted with a series of troubles, how could she manage to deal with all those unpredictable troubles.
But since she ca to this strange world, waking up from every nightmare in panic, she could feel him around her like an embodint of peace and calmness. She felt that she wasn’t alone and that there was still soone out there for her to depend on and to shake off her fear and panic.
She couldn’t leave him...
“If you want to compete, I’ll help you! If you want to stay here, I’ll be by your side.”
The was the first sentence Mo Qianxue said after hearing his story. Brief but powerful.
Of course, she didn’t know that Ning family ranked first among the super-nobility families of the Tianqi Dynasty, neither would she know that Ning family was earthshakingly powerful in the imperial court.
By Ning Shaoqing’s pride, he wouldn’t brag the social status of his family. Therefore, Mo Qianxue thought he ca from an ordinary big family and underwent ordinary drama of scrambling for family property.
She sympathized with his experience and was also reassured, getting rid of all her forr suspicion of him.
Only with this one sentence, Ning Shaoqing’s ntal scar seed to be healed in an instant. With such a woman standing by his side, he was even willing to live forever in this remote village.
Even for a mont, he should thank heaven for giving him such an experience so that he was able to et this woman.
He looked up and smiled softly. The eyes seed to be filled with clear lake water, flickering with waves of ripples which flew out of his eyes carrying so different expression. Mo Qianxue was enchanted by his eyes, almost falling into the charm of them.
Ning Shaoqing said, “No. If they want it, let them have it. Will you look down upon for that?”
Mo Qianxue shook her head like a rattle-drum. Just a second ago, she was so afraid that he might go back into the filthy vicious competition within a big family.
Although she didn’t fear those feuds in themselves, but she didn’t like that kind of life.
Staying here would be better. They could build for a better life while sticking around each other at the sa ti. Probably, one day they would like and fall in love with each other like a real couple. Then they would earn more money and raise a child together, making a happy family and a perfect life.
Thinking about it, she felt happiness oozing out from her heart, and her head leaned forward involuntarily.
The room was instantly heated up by sensation...
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A continues knocking at the door woke up Mo Qianxue whose movent of leaning forward was stopped at once. At the sight of this amplified handso face, she involuntarily sprang up, her face flushing.
In order to conceal her fluster, she rushed to open the door, leaving behind her Ning Shaoqing grinning happily.
The spreading grin worth at least one city!
Outside the door were village head and elders who ca to visit Ning Shaoqing. Mo Qianxue let them in and served tea. Since it was getting dark, she hurriedly went to the kitchen to prepare for dinner.
While cooking, she blad herself for being too eager. Was it because she was an old virgin?
This was not good. She must get back by finding opportunity to kick him off bed.
Tonight, though the two people still slept in separate quilts, their hearts were much much closer.
What a wonderful enchanting night...

On the sa night, Zhao Ergou’s house was turned upside down.
After dinner, they felt sothing wrong. At the beginning, the couple only felt a little pain. Zhao Ergou ignored it, but after going to the toilet for nurous tis, he knew there must be sothing wrong in the food. He wanted to beat up sister Zhao, but he had no more strength.
Sister Zhao also ran out of strength due to successive pooping. Now she lied on bed, panting.
Judging by the situation, their two children were fine, so sister Zhao believed that it must be the beef and cursed Mo Qianxue a thousand tis to herself.
The two children were sleeping sound in another room, not a bit aware of what was going on here.
The coupled wanted to send for a doctor, but they were too feeble to get up and call soone. By midnight, they even couldn’t move, pooping all over the bed and room, leaving the house in complete ss.
Early in the morning, the two sons of Zhao family woke up. Seeing that their mother wasn’t busying around in the kitchen when it was ti for breakfast, so they went to their parents’ room and found them dying.
Only then the two sons panicked and quickly went to invite and ask their uncles and relatives for help.
The room was full of slly feces, leaving no space for people to step inside. In addition, the couple had always done disgusting things to them, so these uncles and relatives were unwilling to give them a hand.
However, after all, they shared the sa family na. They might be criticized behind their backs, so they had no choice but to pinch the nose and get the two out of the room. Then a witch was invited to give the couple talisman water.
The stink sll full of that room disgusted the two neighboring families and made them almost throw up, determined that they shall never contact the couple any more until they died.
There wasn’t a single passer-by who didn’t pinch his nose! The couple’s faces were lost to universe, never to be found back...

On this day, by the ti when the carriage of Baiyunju just arrived, Ning Shaoqing was also back from school.
What astonished Mo Qianxue was that Ning Shaoqing not only let Azhao thank his lord for getting him a doctor, but also drooped down to chat with Xiaoqizi.
As known to all, Ning Shaoqing appeared to be a gentle person, but during the dozen of days since she knew him, she never saw him voluntarily started a conversation with anyone.
What surprised her more was that Xiaoqizi, usually also a proud person, should demonstrate full respect and modesty in front of Ning Shaoqing.
Over there, Ning Shaoqing asked questions now and then while Xiaoqizi answered respectfully.
Xiaoqizi felt miserable in his mind. He didn’t know what happened to himself. Mr. Ning was a re school teacher. Their Baiyunju had loads of story-telling teachers. But this person in plain clothes should let him so respect and fear that he even didn’t know where to put his hands and feet.
Just like...when he stood in front of the seventh young lord.
No, even more daunting than the seventh young lord!
By one look, Azhao knew this was no ordinary person. The overbearing composure was no less than that from the first young lord of Su family.
When they left, Ning Shaoqing specially wrote a letter and let Azhao give it to the seventh young lord. Mo Qianxue thought it might be a re superficial letter of greeting exchanges between literati, so she didn’t care.
When they had dinner, Ning Shaoqing began to chat with Mo Qianxue.
“Qianxue, I have checked for you. Now the stock of beans is too little, only several hundred kilograms in total. This is not enough. Now it’s approaching winter. When snow falls, and the roads are slippery, it would be harder to collect beans. Without beans, how would you continue your tofu business?”
Qianxue was startle! He was right. Though she didn’t value a lot on the small tofu business, now she had to make a living out of it.
She did overlook it! A few days ago, when Ning Shaoqing fell ill, in panic, she should forget about this significant thing.
