Chapter 88 I've Come to See You Off
In the middle of the night, Luo Ning finally remembered something she had overlooked and sat bolt upright in bed.
Thank you, Chang Le!
Matchmaker Zhang went to the Xie family. She calculated that Xie Changle, that unlucky boy, was in trouble!
She had to represent the moon and her brother to eliminate the monsters and save Xie Chang Le.
Luo Ning sneaked into Lao Xie's house and heard snoring like pigs being herded. He twitched his lips. Birds of a feather flock together.
Luo Ning had surveyed the layout of the Xie family's house before, and even in the dark, he could easily find Xie Chang Le's room as if walking on flat ground.
But no one was in the room. Where did that unfortunate kid go in the middle of the night?
Luo Ning held his breath and pricked up his ears.
A dozen minutes later, Xie Changle was found in the cellar of the Xie family's house, tied to a chair and groaning with his mouth gagged.
Tsk tsk, the Xie family's bunch of trash should really be kneaded up and stuffed into a cannon to be shot into the sun.
Xie Changle had been trapped for more than ten hours without a drop of water. The air in the cellar was thin, and he felt like he was about to die.
Suddenly, a sharp pain shot through his leg. The smelly sock in his mouth was removed, and a demonic voice rang in his ear, "Xie Chang Le, if you're not dead, make a sound!"
Luoning?
Xie Changle immediately rejected the idea; how could Luo Ning possibly come here?
His heart felt like it was bleeding; he never imagined that his own parents would sell him to a mentally challenged person.
This wasn't the life he wanted! So he rebelled.
But his resistance was met with the strongest suppression, and he was tied up here by his brothers.
He faced a choice: die or go to their door.
Fourth Brother, where are you? I miss you so much.
I'm dying, and I long to see you one last time.
Luo Ning curled her lips in disgust, "Xie Chang Le, aren't you ashamed of yourself? How old are you and you're still crying!"
"Luoning!!!" Xie Changle's voice rose eight octaves, his face filled with disbelief. What was this crazy woman trying to do?
"We were classmates, and now that you're about to kick the bucket, I'm here to laugh at you, as a farewell gift!" Luo Ning laughed.
Xie Changle was furious.
"Xie Changle, do you know that I can actually tell fortunes?" Luo Ning said mysteriously, like a charlatan.
Xie Changle scoffed. He and Luo Ning had been classmates for years; everyone knew each other. She could tell fortunes? What a load of rubbish!
"Alright, I'll tell your fortune today!" Luo Ning pinched his right hand for a while, making it seem like he was really doing it.
"Not interested!" Although Xie Changle couldn't see Luo Ning, that crazy woman, she turned her head away, her resistance couldn't be more obvious.
Luo Ning didn't care whether he was interested or not; since she was going to save him, he had to be saved. "Your current predicament is only temporary. Your death date is November 30th of this year. Your calamity is a woman named Ding Peiyao!"
Luo Ning told Xie Chang Le about his fate in this mystical way, hoping that he would be more careful and avoid it.
"You're insane!" Xie Changle wanted to knock Luo Ning away with a stick, if he could move.
"This is your fate, believe it or not! You're in big trouble this time. You have two choices: either beg me to save you or become a fool's live-in son-in-law!" Luo Ning said with a smile, wagging his fox tail.
"I'd rather die than beg you!" Xie Changle was recklessly pursuing her own demise, with no turning back.
"You're ruthless! Here's a candle for you, goodbye!" Luo Ning said, and quickly walked towards the stairs.
In the afternoon, Luo Ning woke up from her nap and went into the workshop. She saw a pot of jujube cake that had just been made, so she went over to inspect it.
Wang Tiejun looked at her nervously; he always felt nervous whenever Luo Ning conducted an inspection.
Cui Cui's sudden appearance behind him startled him, causing his hand to tremble and put in too much sugar...
"No way!" Luo Ning waved his hand, and the sour jujube cake landed steadily in the trash can more than ten meters away.
Standing to the side, Cui Cui blurted out, "That's good enough! Why be so serious!"
Luo Ning narrowed his eyes and looked coldly at Cui Cui.
Everyone else was far away, busy with their own things, so what was this woman trying to do, gesturing and pointing at us?
And the face cream all over her body almost made her faint from the fumes.
"Come on, say what you just said again!"
Seeing that Luo Ning was angry, Wang Tiejun immediately stepped in to smooth things over, saying, "I understand, I'll throw this pot away!"
Cui Cui shook her head in disapproval, "Tie Jun, even if you have money, you can't waste it like this! Why throw it away when it's perfectly fine!"
Holy crap! This woman's reach is way too far, does she think she's some kind of Pacific police officer?
Luo Ning's inner universe couldn't be contained and exploded. He raised his hand and overturned the winnowing basket, and the sour jujube cakes fell into Mother Earth's embrace like a celestial maiden scattering flowers.
"Luoning, are you crazy?" Cui Cui looked at the sour jujube cake on the ground, then at Luo Ning, her face filled with barely concealed anger.
A sharp glint flashed in Luo Ning's eyes. "Please call me Technician Luo, and get back to your post!"
"Hey, how dare you talk like that!" Cui Cui pointed at Luo Ning, ready to argue with her.
Wang Tiejun had a headache and immediately stopped her, "Cui Cui, go back to your post!"
Cui Cui nodded and turned to go back.
A hint of interest flashed in Luo Ning's eyes. She told that woman to go back, but she refused and even argued with her.
Wang Tiejun told her to go back, and she obediently went back.
Wow! This is a fucking idiot discovery.
“Luo Ning…” Wang Tiejun stood in front of Luo Ning, feeling a little uneasy.
This was the first time he had ever seen Luo Ning angry, and he was a little flustered.
Luo Ning gave Wang Tiejun a cold glance, and as she passed him, she said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "You have no manners at all!"
Wang Tiejun turned around and looked at Luo Ning's back, a big question mark appearing in his mind.
The workers in the workshop were already used to Luo Ning's arrogance and domineering attitude. This little incident did not affect them at all. They were busy in an orderly manner. As long as they worked hard, they could become permanent employees. Everyone was working with all their might.
Luo Ning wandered around and ended up next to Luo Hai, who was drying jujube cakes.
Luo Hai immediately dismissed the people around him and took the initiative to report, "Cui Cui's husband broke his leg a few years ago while quarrying stones in the mountains. Because he couldn't afford medical treatment, he's still in bed. She's been taking care of him the whole time. She's a well-known good wife in the surrounding villages. She was the first person to sign up to work at the workshop, and she's doing a great job!"
"It must have been tough on her!" Luo Ning said with a half-smile, and quickly left.
At Wang Tiejun's house, Zheng Xiue was lying on the kang (a heated brick bed) looking for something. "Hey, where did my yellow cloth go?"
"He's off to find another woman to sleep with!" Luo Ning said lazily, leaning against the door.
"Girl, what brings you here!" Zheng Xiu'e was overjoyed; this was the first time Luo Ning had ever visited her home.
"Come in quickly!" Zheng Xiu'e was so happy she didn't know what to do, and kept bringing out things from her home to entertain Luo Ning.
Luo Ning walked to the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), his gaze landing on Zheng Xiu'e's face. "Why didn't you use the cosmetics I gave you?"
"I'm so busy every day, I always forget!" Zheng Xiu'e laughed. Actually, she was reluctant to use it; that thing was very precious.
Luo Ning not only gave her cosmetics but also delicious food, including meat, which made her feel quite uncomfortable.
Since Luo Ning is always traveling, she takes care of all the cleaning at her house. Except for her bedroom, she cleans the rest of the house to lighten Luo Ning's burden.
"Maintain it if you need to, don't be stingy with the money! It's all just material possessions, you can't take them with you when you die!" Luo Ning said calmly, glanced around, and left.
"The workshop is short-handed, why don't you go and help out!"
"..." Didn't the workshop already hire enough people? Zheng Xiu'e looked puzzled.
As night fell, Luo Ning finished making the filtration device and installed it.
From then on, almost everything that needed to be done at home was done, and it finally looked like a home.
With a little more handcrafting and styling, it'll be perfect!
Luo Ning looked at the dark sky and disappeared into the night.
