Quick Transmigration: The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Revenge

A short while later, Qi Ning brought out a small jar of wine from the house.

She smiled and handed the jar of wine to Gu Lixuan.

"Take this wine back for your uncle and aunt to drink."

Qi Datian's wine is famous in several nearby villages. In addition to farming, the Qi family also makes and sells wine, so they are considered one of the wealthier families in the village.

This is one of the reasons why Gu Tianzhu and his wife wanted to form a marriage alliance with the Qi family.

The Qi family's wealth and Qi Ning's talent and beauty attracted countless suitors.

If it weren't for Gu Lixuan's handsome appearance, which caught the original owner's eye, this marriage would never have been arranged for the Gu family.

Gu Tianzhu also loved to drink. Ever since the original owner of this body got engaged to Gu Lixuan, the original owner had sent a lot of wine to the Gu family.

Therefore, when Qi Ning told him to take the wine back for his parents to drink, Gu Lixuan didn't think anything was wrong and accepted it without hesitation.

"Okay, I'll take this wine back. I'll be going now."

This time, Qi Ning didn't try to stop her, only saying with apparent concern, "Take care on the road."

As soon as Gu Lixuan left, Qi Ning turned around and went back into the house.

"Host, is there a problem with that wine?" the system asked.

"No, don't you know whether I tampered with it or not? It's just an ordinary jar of wine. If I had tampered with it, it wouldn't be good if Gu Lixuan actually took it back for his father to drink."

"You mean Gu Lixuan won't take the wine back?"

Qi Ning chuckled: "Think about it. Given Gu Lixuan's character, do you think he would obediently take that jar of wine back to the Gu family? He'd probably take it to He Sisi. That way, there's no need to tamper with it; ordinary wine would be enough."

Today is the seventh day after Lu Yiheng's death.

Of course, the traditional first seven days refer to the seventh day after a person's death. However, Lu Yiheng died on the battlefield, and the specific date of his death is too far in the past. Therefore, Lu Yiheng's uncle regarded the seventh day of his funeral as the first seven days.

He Sisi originally wanted to go to the Lu family to burn some paper money for Lu Yiheng, but the Lu family said that the two of them had not officially married yet, and now that Lu Yiheng was dead, the marriage was no longer valid, so she didn't need to go in to burn paper money.

He Sisi has always been a bit deep in her thoughts, and she always felt that the Lu family's words and the way they looked at her carried a hint of disdain.

She returned home dejectedly, sat alone in the house, and silently shed tears.

After some time, He Sisi suddenly heard a noise coming from the courtyard.

She was startled, quickly wiped away her tears, and mustered her courage to slowly go out to see what was going on.

When she got to the courtyard, she saw that it was Gu Lixuan who had pushed open the half-closed gate and come in.

"Sisi, it's me!"

"Gu Lixuan, what are you doing here?"

Gu Lixuan closed the door behind him. Holding the jar of wine, he saw He Sisi's red and swollen eyes and tear stains on her face, and quickly walked up to her.

"Sisi, are you crying?"

He knew that today was Lu Yiheng's seventh day memorial service, which was why he was worried about He Sisi's condition and insisted on coming to see her.

He Sisi didn't answer Gu Lixuan's question, and continued, "What are you doing here? Get out of here, don't let anyone see you!"

"Don't worry, no one saw it. I was just worried about you, so I came to see you and left. I even brought you some pancakes."

As he spoke, Gu Lixuan took out a handkerchief from his pocket. When he opened it, there were indeed two pancakes wrapped inside.

These are two pancakes that Gu Lixuan secretly took from the pancakes sent to the Qi family; they were left for He Sisi.

He Sisi glanced at the pancake, neither taking it nor saying anything, and then looked at the small jar that Gu Lixuan was holding.

Seeing this, Gu Lixuan quickly said, "This is wine, do you...do you want to drink it?"

"How about I have a drink with you? I know you're in a bad mood today, a drink will definitely cheer you up."

Perhaps He Sisi was genuinely in a bad mood today and wanted to drown her sorrows in alcohol, or perhaps she was feeling lonely and Gu Lixuan's appearance was just in time, and she needed someone to talk to.

He Sisi remained silent for a while, but ultimately did not refuse.

The two entered the house and sat down together to slowly drink their wine.

"Host, you were right. Gu Lixuan took the wine to find He Sisi, and now they're both drunk and..."

Qi Ning chuckled, "Just as I thought."

In the original storyline, after Gu Lixuan returned, his family pressured him to prepare for his marriage with Qi Ning. As a result, He Sisi became even more cautious and Gu Lixuan was too busy to visit her.

Things are different now. Their wedding has been postponed, and Gu Lixuan is always following He Sisi around. Their relationship was already somewhat ambiguous.

Today is the seventh day after Lu Yiheng's death. Without a doubt, the sentimental He Sisi will be hiding at home and crying secretly again.

Qi Ning guessed that Gu Lixuan was going to see He Sisi, so she specially gave him a jar of wine at that time, knowing that according to his personality, he would not take the wine home and would probably drink it with He Sisi.

In the original storyline, they were not drinking when they had sex; they were sober and infatuated. It's even more unbelievable that they were drinking now.

The wine served to entertain them and gave them an excuse to indulge.

Just then, Qi Datian and the others returned from the fields.

Qi Datian and Wang Qiaofang each carried a hoe, Qi Chen followed behind, hopping and skipping, and Qi Yang, who was at the back, was carrying two pheasants that he had caught in the mountains.

"You caught two more pheasants?" Li Suying greeted them with a smile.

"Yeah, I was lucky today, I caught two in one go," Qi Yang said proudly.

Wang Qiaofang put down her hoe and said to Li Suying, "Suying, kill one of these pheasants tonight and stew it. Keep the other one in a cage and we'll eat it in a few days."

“Okay, Mom,” Li Suying replied immediately.

Seeing this, Qi Ning quickly stepped forward: "Mom, could I send the other pheasant to Li Xuan's house?"

"What?"

Wang Qiaofang's face immediately fell.

She pointed at Qi Ning from a distance and said, "You silly girl, are you out of your mind? Why do you always think about their family when there's something good to be had?"

Qi Yang, always eager for drama, said, "Mom, you're right. I think my little sister is just a bit dim-witted."

Qi Ning wasn't really going to deliver the pheasant; she wanted to find a plausible excuse to catch them in the act of adultery. Once they were caught, things would fall out, and she could just take the pheasant back.

"Oh, Mom, please tell me if it's okay or not!" Qi Ning tugged at Wang Qiaofang's arm and shook it, acting coquettishly.

"No way!" Wang Qiaofang refused with a stern face.

"Why? Didn't our family often send good things to Lixuan's family before?"

"Then was then, and the present is now."

The Qi family was indeed living a comfortable life and was generous to the Gu family, their future in-laws. However, Wang Qiaofang was still fussing over the postponement of the wedding and was unwilling to continue being so kind to the Gu family.

Qi Ning added, "But today, Aunt Cuihong also had Brother Lixuan bring us some pancakes."

Hearing this, Wang Qiaofang's expression softened a bit: "Really?"
