Heaven-Sent Farm Girl Builds Her Fortune And Captures His Heart-Chapter 195: Flower Thief

With Dong Jin’s wedding over, Shen Qinglan returned to her leisurely life.

She also heard that after Qian Shi woke up, the Mo Family went to the town as a group to report to the authorities.

County Magistrate Pei sent people to investigate, and upon finding out the relationship between the Dong Family and Shen Qinglan, he not only didn’t punish the Dong Family but also drove the Mo Family out of the government office.

As soon as Mo Daqiang’s sister-in-law saw this, she instantly added insult to injury and reported the matter of Mo Daqiang injuring his own elder brother to the authorities.

County Magistrate Pei was furious when he heard that and had Mo Daqiang brought into the government office, where he was given twenty lashes before being dragged out.

Already injured, now he was hurt more severely than before, and whether he could still walk in future was uncertain.

Qian Shi and Mo Cheng wanted to go to Dong Family Village to ask Mo Niang for help to pay for medical expenses, but as soon as the people of Dong Family Village heard they were from the Mo Family, they refused to even let them pass and directly drove them away.

Shen Qinglan just smiled faintly upon hearing this.

She returned to town the next day, and Song Ting sent Song Qing to deliver a large stack of thousand-tael silver notes to her.

Once Shen Qinglan got the money, she immediately sought out Old Tang to help her find three houses in Baihua Lane.

On March 24th, the weather was sunny, and a gentle breeze was blowing.

It was lunchtime, and Shen Qinglan was sitting in the courtyard waiting for her meal when Shao Yi arrived.

He simply said, "Third Young Lady, there’s someone looking for you outside!"

Initially, Shen Qinglan thought it was news from Old Tang about the houses, but as soon as she stepped out, she saw Xuan Ying leaning idly by the door.

"Miss Shen!" Upon seeing her, Xuan Ying immediately stood up straight and said with a smile, "Long time no see!"

Indeed, it had been quite a while, almost four months.

Shen Qinglan nodded and asked softly, "When did you return?"

"Returned last night!" Xuan Ying followed alongside her, saying as they walked, "As soon as the Young Master heard you were hunted by the Heavenly Killer Sect, he hurried back."

Shen Qinglan frowned, "Was it Old Tang who said this?"

"Yes!" Xuan Ying nodded, looking at her with concern and asking, "Miss Shen, are you alright?"

"I’m fine!" Shen Qinglan said, "I haven’t seen them come after me these past months."

"The Young Master sent someone to investigate as soon as he came back." He looked at Shen Qinglan and said, "It’s not that they didn’t come after you, but rather those people were stopped by the Medicine Sect."

Shen Qinglan was suddenly enlightened upon hearing this; she wondered why the Heavenly Killer Sect was so inept, unable to find her trace in so long, turns out they were all blocked by the Medicine Sect!

"Miss Shen!"

As they walked out of the corridor, they encountered Le Zhao just about to enter at the door.

Xuan Ying, who had been smiling, instantly withdrew his smile, let out a cold snort, and did not speak.

Shen Qinglan glanced between the two, then greeted lightly, "Mr. Le."

Le Zhao sighed helplessly, looked at Shen Qinglan and said, "Miss Shen, shall we go inside?"

After the two of them went inside, Xuan Ying silently followed.

The two peach trees in the courtyard were in full bloom, and as they passed by, Le Zhao casually plucked a branch and handed it to Shen Qinglan, "Miss Shen, here you go."

Xuan Ying unhappily said, "This was supposed to bear fruit, you flower thief!"

Shen Qinglan did not take it but looked toward Duan Yunfei, who was standing under the eaves watching them.

Le Zhao clicked his tongue, rotated the peach blossom branch in his hand, and pretended to sigh regretfully, "Such a beautiful peach blossom, it’s a pity the beauty won’t accept it, such a pity, such a pity!"

"Hmph!" As Xuan Ying passed him, he let out a cold snort without saying anything, and heavily bumped his shoulder.

Le Zhao staggered two steps, and upon steadying himself, he couldn’t help but chuckle lightly.
