Chapter 48 Mother, she wanted to kill me
Upon arriving in the village, Qi Yunran paid two coins for the ride and got off.

She glared at Pei Yuanjun resentfully, then slung her basket over her shoulder and strode away.

Pei Yuanjun watched Qi Yunran's dashing and unrestrained figure, and a hint of interest flashed in her heart, as she was intolerant of even the slightest imperfection.

She can instantly transform into a bullied little wife complaining to him, or she can be gentle and harmless to him one second and then glare at him with daggers the next.

What kind of environment nurtured her quirky and clever personality?
His mother and his eldest sister never gave him a moment's peace.

His older sister married a government official's clerk, and she felt superior to others and looked down on them.

At that time, she was on her way to the capital to take the imperial examination, so it was considered a high-status marriage for her.

He had already told her sister that the family was not a good match, but her sister insisted on marrying them.

He even said that if he failed the exam, wouldn't that ruin her lifelong happiness?
Now that someone is proposing to her, how could she possibly refuse?

In the end, he stopped caring about her and let her be.

Qi Yunran returned to the haunted house in the back mountain and suddenly felt a little quiet. When she got back inside, she found that the house had been turned upside down.

Clothes were scattered all over the floor, and her clothes had been shredded with some sharp object. They were riddled with holes and were no longer wearable.

The leftover rice and noodles in the kitchen were also taken away, as well as the pork fat she bought last time. The oil had been rendered but she hadn't even started eating it yet!

The blankets on the bed were thrown on the floor, covered with dirty footprints.

Judging from the size of the footprints, they are women's footprints.

Qi Yunran seemed to suddenly remember something and immediately ran to the place where she hid the land deed.

The land deeds and field deeds for the haunted house, which were hidden in an earthenware pot under the bed, were all missing.

The four hundred taels of silver notes that were left after selling the goods were also gone.

Qi Yunran felt her blood rush to her head and almost fainted; her mind went completely blank.

Who stole her things? Qi Yunran tried her best to remain calm. In the village, her enemies were Huang Caicai, Pei Wenwen, and Pei Xiaoya.

When Qi Yunran found Pei Wenwen, she was looking at her smugly and sneering: "Qi Yunran, what are you doing here?"

Qi Yunran walked up to her in a few steps and slapped her across the face.

"Qi Yunran, have you gone mad?"

Qi Yunran grabbed her by the neck and demanded, "Tell me, who came to my house today?"

"...Cough...cough...Let...you go!"

Qi Yunran used her internal energy to lift Pei Xiaoya off the ground.

Pei Xiaoya felt a chill run down her spine as she looked at Qi Yunran's icy gaze, staring in astonishment at Qi Yunran's extraordinary abilities.

To lift someone up so easily, as if they weren't human but the embodiment of a demon, is terrifying.

She felt a suffocating death calling to her, and she immediately confessed in fright: "It's...it's Pei...Shuya. It's...she...let me go." Her face was flushed red from holding her breath.

At this moment, Pei Xiaoya's mother, Liu Quanfang, saw Qi Yunran choking Pei Xiaoya and roared furiously with her eyes wide open, "Qi Yunran, let go of my Xiaoya! Help! Qi Yunran has killed someone!"

Qi Yunran threw Pei Xiaoya in front of Liu Quanfang like trash.

As soon as Pei Xiaoya regained her breathing, she coughed violently a few times.

"Little girl, how are you? Qi Yunran, I'm not done with you today! You actually tried to kill my daughter?"

Pei Xiaoya feigned weakness and said, "Mother wants to kill me. Let's report her to the authorities and have her arrested and imprisoned."

Qi Yunran looked at them with icy eyes: "Fine, go ahead. My land deeds and house deeds have all been stolen. If you're the ones responsible, I'll arrest you first!"

Pei Xiaoya said guiltily, "It wasn't me, it was Pei Shuya. Go ahead and report her to the authorities! Then we'll see if Brother Pei helps you or his sister."
