Thousand Face Demonic Concubine Chapter 149.1

Chapter 149.1 - Day of the marriage

“Then what do you want me to do?” Ruan Zhen was frustrated as well. Lou Lianxin’s accusatory tone only made her even angrier.

“What do you mean, what do I want you to do? Mother, you said that you’d prepare a full and rich dowry for me! I don’t care, when I marry, I better see ten miles of wedding festivities!” Lou Lianxin’s mind was buzzing.

She was about to explode.

She couldn’t even begin to imagine what would happen to her if she didn't have a dowry.

She wouldn’t even be as good as those ordinary married women, so when she reached the Li family, how could she lift up her head?

Ruan Zhen was so angry with Lou Lianxin’s stubborn att.i.tude that she was trembling.

She’d originally already suffered enough heat at the Ruan family, and now she had to suffer being pointed and scolded at by her own daughter?

In a moment of anger, her face froze over and she shouted, “Then don’t marry!”

“.....”

Lou Lianxin was dumbstruck, staring in disbelief at her own mother.

After half a beat, dazedly mumbled, “Mother, do you think of me as a burden too?”

“Lian’er, I …” After those words left her mouth, she’d already instantly regretted it.

She’d been lost in the moment and had already shouted back at her.

But seeing Lou Lianxin’s teary eyes that were about to spill as well as the accusation in them, her heart was twisting around itself.

She wanted to explain, but just as her mouth opened, Lou Lianxin had cut her off!

“I know it, you don’t have to say it! If there’s no dowry, then there’s no dowry! You don’t have to care about me ever again!” She bit down on her lips as she spat out the words through gritted teeth.

Lou Lianxin angrily spun around and flew out of the room.

“Lian’er!” Ruan Zhen shouted behind her.

She tried to chase after her but she couldn’t catch up to Lou Lianxin and nearly fell down.

She angrily hit her own chest. Defeatedly, her shoulders fell down as she sat down on the chair.

She angril gripped the arm rests, Lou Qingwu, to bully us mother and daughter like this, I’ll never forget this!

Within the Leaning Wind Pavilion, Lou QIngwu was originally reclining on her couch and reading her novel when she suddenly sneezed.

Lan Bai immediately jumped forward and draped her with a coat.

“Master, it’s getting cold. Why don’t you head back inside to read?.”

“No need.” Lou Qingwu shook her head. She’d spent too long in her rooms, she’d grow tired.

Lan Bai still wanted to say something before a figure suddenly appeared behind her.

Her back went cold and turned around to find that Thousand Face had appeared behind her, some time ago.

She patted her chest as she let out a breath, scared.

She glared at him, still angry about when he threw the human skin at her.

“Master, the Ruan family’s head gone to the guest house to find the Daoist priest, I told him to leave first.”

“En, did Ruan Zhen go to see Ruan Xiuren today?”

“She went, she went in the early morning. She probably didn’t fare well there because when she came back, her face was pitch black.” Thousand Face’s face in contrast, was like a spring breeze and just as proud.

Just thinking about Ruan Zhen’s face back then made him feel better.

“Then it’s time to give the mother worm to Ruan Xiuren. Tell him to guard the jar well and at that time, the ninth madam … would continue to be safe.”

“Would the Ruan family head believe it?” Thousand Face was a bit worried.

Whether he believes it or not, that’s not up to him. He has no other choice. Tell him it’s the mother worm of the Thousand Days Intoxicated worm, and if that mother worm died, the son worm would die with it. But before then, it would destroy the ninth madam’s organs and body with it.” Lou Qingwu’s eyes fell on her book before continuing. “If he firsts asks about moving the worm to a close relation, tell him that’s fine, but if it fails, the ninth madam’s closest relative will die. He only has to temporarily protect the mother worm, the ninth madam won’t have any problems in the next 20 or so years.”

“En? Then what if he insists on that method?” Thousand Face felt like the Ruan family head probably would ask.

“Some things can’t be done just because he wants them done.” Lou Qingwu looked down, “But, he won’t ask that yet.”

“Why?”

“The Ruan family’s currently in a bad position, its foundations are shaken. He’s already incredibly busy so he definitely wouldn’t use my life as a betting piece right now. If I die, there aren’t any benefits for him.”
