When Qingsheng came into the room, he couldn't help but hold her hand and touch her shoulder. Ranmo was used to it. He didn't ask Ranmo if he had any news about his mother.

The two sat at the table for a while. Qingsheng asked her if she wanted to climb the mountain she climbed yesterday. Ranmo glanced at him and said, "Yesterday's mountain is no longer the same as today's mountain. It's better not to go."

Qingsheng smiled and said, "But the person from yesterday is still the same today." "Let's go to the lawyer's stall today. Otherwise people will say that we don't have perseverance." Ranmo said capriciously.

Qingsheng smiled and agreed. Then he suddenly said something was wrong. He hadn't been there for a few days, and the servant hadn't delivered the stall yet. He thought he might as well go and let them know first.

Ranmo said that was unnecessary, and that he would simply stand there and receive the guests. He did not want to stay too long today. He then took out a piece of white paper and wrote the words "Lawyer's Questions" on it. He would just hold it up in front of him when the time came.

Qingsheng looked at the white paper and said, "It looks a bit like a straw sign for selling people."

Ran Mo glared at him. He quickly stopped talking. The two of them packed up their things and headed out the door.

Perhaps because they hadn't set up a stall, passersby only glanced at them occasionally, but no one came to ask about anything. The two were debating whether to go back when they saw a man pacing back and forth near the bushes, glancing at them from time to time, as if hesitant to come.

After a while, he finally made up his mind and walked over. Qingsheng hurriedly greeted him.

The man was young, with a fair complexion. He glanced at the cards in front of Qingsheng and said softly, "I don't know what a lawyer is. Can I just ask you something and then leave?"

This guy is quite ignorant. Ran Mo didn't show anything and just let him talk.

The man looked at them with a red face and stammered, "I had a erotic dream the night before."

Ran and Mo nearly spit out their food when they heard this. They felt both angry and amused.

Qingsheng was about to scold him and send him off, but Ranmo stopped him. Considering he was still young, it was normal for him to have such a dream.

She explained to the man that this was a normal physiological phenomenon and there was no need to worry too much. There is a saying that goes, "Spring dreams leave no trace." Don't think about it after it's over and just focus on your work.

The man nodded, as if he still had something to hide. Ran Mo looked at him suspiciously, telling him not to be evasive and to just say whatever he had to say.

The man gritted his teeth and said something that almost made Qingsheng overturn the table. Fortunately, the table was not set today.

He whispered with shame on his face that he had dreamed of the person he should not have dreamed of.

What? Ran Mo's brain felt like it had been hit by a club. Qing Sheng, without a word, went over and grabbed the man by the collar, ready to throw him away. He shouted angrily, "Are you trying to play a trick on us? You don't act like a decent person. Get out of here! You're not welcome here."

The man was not angry and did not argue. He just looked at the two of them pitifully.

Ranmo calmed down and suddenly thought of something. He asked Qingsheng to put him down, but fearing that the two would argue again, he pulled the man aside and gave him some private counseling.

Ranmo understood that this was essentially a rather unusual psychological phenomenon. In her previous life, she had heard of some outrageous ethical conflicts that she found difficult to understand and even despised. However, after studying relevant works on ethics and psychology, she realized that this phenomenon had long been studied within the relevant disciplines.

Isn't it important that doctors should not discriminate against patients? Just like it's a lawyer's job to defend bad people.

Not to mention dreams, even if it really happens, it needs to be viewed and curbed rationally. It is best to seek help from a psychologist or ethics expert to properly resolve and promote the healthy and harmonious development of family relationships.

Ran Mo was unable to instill all these modern terms and concepts into that person, so he tried his best to use the most popular and implicit language to help him analyze the causes of the relevant phenomena, and warned him not to be too anxious or self-blaming, and to pay attention to maintaining a good relationship with his parents.

The man hadn't expected to receive such a soothing and satisfying answer to his question. He'd been so confused and worried for a while, but now he felt relieved and at ease. He expressed his sincere gratitude to Ranmo.

Ran Mo comforted him by saying it was okay, and gave him some basic knowledge about what a lawyer was, what they did, etc. The man bowed repeatedly and turned to leave.

Ran Mo returned to Qing Sheng. Qing Sheng looked at her in confusion, not showing admiration as before, but only annoyance and disdain in his eyes.

Ran Mo thought, "Okay, there's still someone who needs to be educated on modern ethics." He briefly explained the causes and treatment of the phenomenon, and said the people involved weren't particularly evil, so there was no need to be too harsh on them.

She almost brought up Freud's Oedipus complex, but then decided against it. That's enough. She couldn't digest too much about the ancients.

Qingsheng listened with a mixture of disbelief and doubt. Although some of the knowledge points were clearly beyond his scope, he was still surprised that Ranmo could calmly answer even such a niche and embarrassing question.

The man's words still left him with a grudge, so he said to Ran Mo, "I never thought that as a lawyer I would encounter such a difficult matter. Why don't we not receive guests so aimlessly in the future? Who knows, we might run into something unexpected.

I've asked Young Master Wu to help you find a few more wealthy merchants here. You can just focus on managing their business and household affairs. I think you'll make a lot of money. Experienced lawyers in Dayue City all do this."

Ran Mo sighed, "Isn't the situation you describe exactly what many lawyers aspire to be in business? I appreciate your kindness, but I still need to put in my own efforts to develop my business."

She explained to Qingsheng that experienced lawyers do not have to worry about good cases, but as a lawyer, in addition to making money, another task is to try their best to help poor civilians or those who have suffered injustice to obtain protection of their rights.

This is an action for the benefit of the public. If she, a novice lawyer, is unwilling to do this, how can she expect others to do it?

Qingsheng was thoughtful after hearing this. He then gave Ranmo a thumbs-up, praising her for being a chivalrous person who would achieve great things in the future.

Ran Mo listened to his praise with great pleasure. She also felt that compared to his words of praise for her character and ability, she seemed to prefer hearing him whisper in her ear the words "a beauty who can shame the moon and flowers".

At noon, the two packed up and prepared to go back. They stopped by the market and bought some meat, vegetables and noodles, planning to eat at home.

When they got home, no one was there. Qingsheng asked where Weihua had gone. Ranmo told him that Weihua had been at her aunt's house in town, learning needlework and helping with work, and wouldn't be back for the time being. Qingsheng seemed lost in thought.

For lunch, Ranmo prepared two of her signature dishes: braised short ribs and scrambled eggs with green peppers. They were both visually and aromatically delicious. Qingsheng also assisted her. Although a leisurely young master who had never been to a worldly place, he seemed very happy and comfortable with Ranmo. The kitchen was filled with a cheerful atmosphere.

After the meal, the two of them walked around the courtyard for a bit before returning to the house. Ranmo flipped through the legal notes Qingsheng had given him while chatting with him about various topics.

Qingsheng suddenly said, "Auntie and Weihua are not at home. Aren't you afraid to live alone at night?"
