Quick wear: cannon fodder is a bit strong
Chapter 20 The Prime Minister's Early Death
Next, until before dinner, Nan Xi stayed in the room and concentrated on cultivating her spatial ability and mental power.
Because she suddenly remembered that the "body" of the end of the world was still in her own space.
Got to find a place to settle down.
But I can't bury my own "body" in my own yard. It feels weird.
Hmm... She quite liked this little world. She could find a beautiful place with clear water and mountains, dig a hole and bury it, so that she could say goodbye to her self in that world.
In this case, she needs to leave the city as soon as possible, which requires her to upgrade her spatial ability to the next level as soon as possible.
Nan Xi's spatial ability is now level 2.
Her space is large enough that upgrading it doesn't affect its size. However, levels one and two can only store objects and preserve freshness. At level three, the body can enter, and most importantly, the "space teleportation" skill becomes available.
Although the third-level ability can only teleport about 500 meters at a time, it is at least enough to leave the house.
So for the entire afternoon, Nan Xi told no one to disturb her and focused on improving her spatial abilities.
Finally, when "Chun Tao" was wandering outside the door for the 23rd time, Nan Xi's sea of consciousness was in a trance for a moment, and her spatial ability successfully broke through the third level.
Chuntao came to urge us to have dinner.
Ancient people generally went to bed early, so dinner was also early, around 4 or 5 in the evening.
Normally, the original owner would have finished dinner by this time. Chuntao was afraid that the young lady would have indigestion if she ate too late, so she kept guarding the door.
This is also a loyal girl, Nan Xi didn't say much.
After dinner, he took Chuntao and Qiutong for a walk in the house to help digest the food.
This is a large house with four courtyards in the south of the city. In this area of the capital where land is scarce and the population is large, and everyone is either rich or noble, it can be said to be quite luxurious.
This was also one of the dowries that General Nan gave to Nan Xi. Otherwise, with the strength of the Zhao family, they probably couldn't even afford to buy one of the small courtyards.
Currently, living here are Zhao Wenxuan and his mother, as well as his eldest and second uncles, a total of over thirty people. Not long after their marriage, Zhao Wenxuan simply said, "My eldest and second uncles worked so hard to support my education. I can't afford to leave them behind and live elsewhere." The original owner agreed to allow both families to move in.
She had a simple idea: the mansion her grandfather had given her was large enough, and the sheer number of people there would make it a lively place. Little did she know these people would swarm like locusts. It could be said that except for the original owner's Listening Snow Courtyard, every other place was filled with unknown people from the Zhao family.
To avoid any conflicts, the original owner simply stayed in her own courtyard and rarely ventured out. So, not only did Nan Xi not know where she was when she walked around the mansion, but even the original owner didn't know in her memory.
——It’s ridiculous. It’s obviously my own house, but this is my first time here!
Walking along the edge of a pond with an arch bridge.
On a summer evening, a cool breeze blew, and the sweet, cloying fragrance of gardenias filled the air. The setting sun cast a golden glow on the shimmering pool.
Nan Xi was in a very good mood. However, this good time was short-lived.
"Zhang Qing has met sister-in-law"
Suddenly, a greasy male voice rang out from the side. Then, from a small forest beside the pond, a man with slicked-back hair and powdered face, wearing a green long gown and waving a pink folding fan, jumped out.
At first glance, Nan Xi thought it was a toad spirit in the pond that jumped onto the shore.
The man ignored Nan Xi's disdainful look and swept his eyes over Nan Xi's body and face. "Sister-in-law, why are you wandering around here alone? My brother refused to accompany you..."
Chunmei and Qiutong: "..."
Aren't we human?
Chun Tao quickly stepped forward and blocked Nan Xi's way with her body. "Young Master, don't talk nonsense! The young lady is just taking a walk. Please go on your own and don't offend our young lady!"
Facing Nan Xi's puzzled gaze, Qiu Tong explained in a low voice: "This is the nephew of the master's second uncle's maternal family. He has been in the mansion for almost a year and lives in Luozhuxuan nearby."
"Oh," Nan Xi understood. This person, who had nothing to do with her at all, had become a half-master in her house. What kind of a young cousin was this? Who was he trying to disgust?
"Young Master, huh?" Nan Xi beckoned, "Zhang Qing, come here."
The toad spirit's eyes lit up when he heard this. His sister-in-law was calling him because she finally saw that he looked no worse than that weakling Zhao Wenxuan?
He always thought that Zhao Wenxuan, that pretty boy, was not as good-looking as him, and he was lucky enough to "marry", oh no, "marry" the eldest daughter of a wealthy family.
He was lucky enough to sneak a few glances at such a beautiful lady. If he didn't hold her in his arms every day, she would be left alone in an empty room. He had been keeping an eye on Nan Xi for a long time, and today he finally got the chance!
With a shameless face and drooling, he looked straight at Nan Xi. Before he could get close, Nan Xi kicked him out with a sharp kick. There was only a "thump" sound: "Ah! Sister-in-law... help!"
Zhang Qing struggled desperately in the river. His chest ached from the kick, and he felt like he couldn't breathe. "Help! Sister-in-law... I was wrong!"
Looking at Nan Xi on the shore from the water, he felt she was icy and terrifying. How could she be the beautiful lady from his dreams? She looked more like a female demon.
Now this female devil is going to take his life!
It had rained heavily a few days ago, and the water in the pond was very deep. Zhang Qing struggled desperately. He was wrong, and he would never dare to do it again... It would be better to leave Zhao Wenxuan, the idiot, to deal with such a female devil as his sister-in-law!
