My First Husband After Transmigration - Chapter 48

Chapter 48

She pouted and said, "Of course you're not a lecher, but you drool when you see a beautiful woman!"

Li You looked at her with amusement.

She turned to look at Nangong Xue, ignoring him: "How far is Tangjiabao?"

Ye Suiyu, the wife of Tang Jingfeng, the lord of Tang Family Fortress, was actually surnamed Bai, making her the most likely suspect to possess the Thousand Poison Blood Palm technique. The suspicion was far too great. Thinking that she would soon be able to see her, Yang Nianqing felt a surge of excitement.

"It's not far, I heard it's just east of the city," Nangong Xue said, glancing at the sky outside the window with a slight smile. "It's too late today, it might be inappropriate to come so abruptly. How about we go tomorrow?"

He Bi nodded: "That's fine."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a great commotion arose downstairs.

Immediately, chaos erupted in the brothel across the street. Apart from the beautiful girl who was staring blankly at Li You, all the other women wore expressions of joy and began to chatter sweetly to each other.

"Young Master Tang is here!"

The scale of the event was so grand that it stood out unusually at the night market, attracting everyone's attention.

.

Across the street, in front of the brothel, a magnificent carriage slowly came to a stop. With its red wheels and ornate tassels, and exquisite carvings on the walls, it was clearly not something an ordinary family could afford.

However, this carriage, which was only owned by wealthy families, had no driver.

In the driver's seat sat a handsome man who looked to be in his early twenties.

With his magnificent attire, unrestrained demeanor, and disrespectful expression, he leaned casually against the car door, ignoring the strange looks from others, and smiled lazily at the group of women.

The pedestrians clearly recognized him and immediately moved away, some even shaking their heads and whispering as if sighing.

Young Master Tang?

Yang Nianqing had absolutely no liking for such playboys and was about to look away with a pout. But just then, that young master Tang happened to turn his head and glance up at the building in their direction, and unfortunately, his eyes met hers.

A pair of dark, unfathomable eyes.

Yang Nianqing finally understood why people say that to understand a person, you only need to look into their eyes.

Li You's eyes had long, flamboyant eyelashes, with a touch of playfulness. Anyone who saw his bright and cheerful gaze would feel happy involuntarily. He Bi's eyes were just like him, but after looking at them for a while, Yang Nianqing felt that they weren't as cold as they seemed on the surface. Nangong Xue was different. She had a pair of noble phoenix eyes, gentle, sad, and melancholic. Her gaze was always so complex that it was hard to understand.

However, she had never seen eyes like these before.

His eyes were deep and still, like a still pool, or a bottomless abyss. They were clearly full of smiles and amusement, yet why did it always seem as if boundless loneliness and solitude were buried deep within them? And pain.

Yang Nianqing froze, unable to look away.

.

Downstairs, Young Master Tang's gaze seemed to falter for a moment, then a lazy smile flickered across his lips. He raised an eyebrow slightly, it was unclear whether he was looking at her or someone else.

Hey, this handsome guy is "flirting" with me!

Yang Nianqing was both annoyed and amused, yet secretly pleased. She had often heard Li You say that he wasn't like a woman, and now at least her true gender had been confirmed...

After a while.

Li You suddenly sighed and muttered, "Some people are starting to drool."

Drooling?

Stimulated by those words, Yang Nianqing came to her senses and wanted to retort, but then she rolled her eyes and said, "Everyone has a love for beauty, we're all the same."

Nangong Xue was both amused and exasperated, and a rare smile unexpectedly appeared on He Bi's usually cold and handsome face.

Li You smiled wryly: "Are you even a woman?"

What do you think? (9f)

"She said these things without even blushing; she has absolutely no womanly qualities."

"Why should I blush? Only men are allowed to look at beautiful women, but women aren't allowed to look at handsome men?" Yang Nianqing thought it was perfectly reasonable. "Besides, don't you think he is really handsome? It's normal for everyone to like him."

Everyone was stunned. (f7)

Half a day.

Li You coughed and looked at him strangely: "People...people love?"

Did they forget that in ancient times, the word "love" couldn't be used casually to describe just any man? These men probably all misunderstood, and Yang Nianqing was filled with regret. (74)

She suppressed her embarrassment and tapped the table with her chopsticks: "I said, you guys, don't get the wrong idea. I just... cough, I think he's really different, quite likable..."

Li You interrupted her: "You like it?"

"Stop overthinking!" Yang Nianqing finally couldn't help but raise her chopsticks and hit him on the head. "I'm just vain, that's all! Do you understand? Not a lover!"

With a "smack," for some reason, Li You couldn't dodge and was hit hard by her chopsticks.

After a long while, he finally realized what was happening, rubbing his forehead and forcing a wry smile.

She actually managed to beat him up? Yang Nianqing was extremely surprised. Back then, when they fought, she couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes. Could it be that after hanging out with these martial arts people for so long, her "martial arts" had improved?

Nangong Xue looked at Li You, quite surprised.

He Bi stared at him for a while, then suddenly said, "I didn't expect you to be so lazy that all you do is get beaten up."

Li You blinked, about to speak, when he heard someone at the next table sigh, "Master Tang has only been gone a few months, how did Young Master Tang end up like this!"

.

Lord Tang? Young Master Tang?

Everyone was stunned.

The waiter serving the food spoke up with a pained expression: "He seemed alright on the surface, but it turns out he's so unfilial. The owner of Tangbao is a good man, how could he have given birth to such an unfilial son? I wonder what sins his ancestors committed!"

"He spends all his time in brothels and is a good-for-nothing. Doesn't Madam Ye discipline him?"

"Madam Ye is so virtuous and speaks so softly, how can she be controlled?"

"A doting mother often spoils her son!"

"..."

Upon hearing this, Yang Nianqing, being a modern person, had no impression of ancient etiquette and customs. She was simply surprised to learn that he was actually the son of Tang Jingfeng and Madam Ye!

The other three, however, all had strange expressions.

Has anyone ever seen anything like this? The father has only been dead for a few months, and the son is already running off to brothels to pick up beautiful women.

After a while.

Nangong Xue frowned: "Lord Tang and Madam Ye only have this one son. I've heard that although he's young, he's quite famous. How could he act so absurdly?"

Li You suppressed a laugh: "They say 'like father, like son,' but it seems that's not true. Perhaps it's because Lord Tang was too infatuated that Heaven took pity on him and gave birth to such a charming young master."

Yang Nianqing immediately said, "Then your father must be much more devoted than Lord Tang."

Li You raised an eyebrow but remained silent.

He Bi looked at him and actually sighed: "To be honest, I don't understand how your old man could have given birth to such a playboy like you."

Li You stared wide-eyed.

Nangong Xue smiled and shook her head: "Master Tang is indeed a devoted lover. Madam Ye is fortunate to have such a man. However, given Tang Gongzi's behavior, even though Madam Ye is virtuous, she really shouldn't have indulged him too much."

There was no sign of Young Master Tang downstairs across the street; he must have gone inside.

silence.

Li You slowly said, "I'm afraid it's not simple."

.

Night, at the inn.

So much has happened in just one or two months. This ancient martial arts world is truly terrifying; people die at the drop of a hat. Yang Nianqing constantly worries about whether she will lose her life. However, the question of whether she will fall back down after being thrown into the air has not yet been resolved, making her hope of returning to the modern world extremely slim…

Don't women who travel through time to ancient times usually have a large group of people taking care of them?

She was extremely depressed.

The man who was supposed to "take care" of her was, unfortunately, a playboy, a lecher, and a lazybones. He even made her do his laundry for a hundred years. Fortunately, he wasn't in a hurry to make her pay off her gambling debts...

Gambling is indeed very harmful; no wonder the government has banned it.

Suddenly I felt a little thirsty.

She walked to the window, picked up the teapot, poured herself a cup of tea, and drank it all in one gulp.

Actually, Li You didn't really want her to do the laundry; he was mostly teasing her. Yang Nianqing understood this, but just seeing his appearance made her inexplicably angry. To be honest, he wasn't ugly at all; in fact, he was incredibly handsome. She didn't know why, but just looking at him made her uncomfortable.

Recalling how he "seduced" beautiful women during the day, Madam Leng actually said that being with such a lazy and lecherous playboy was a blessing!

Yang Nianqing muttered, "Take care of him? Pshaw, being tossed around like a hidden weapon is too terrifying. He'll develop a heart condition sooner or later. I just hope he doesn't bully me anymore..."

"Not good." A magnetic voice said.

Hearing the voice, Yang Nianqing was startled and then realized that someone was sitting on the chair next to her. The person was dressed in white, and had long, bright eyes that looked like stars.

“Actually, I didn’t originally intend to use you as a hidden weapon,” he sighed. “You’re really heavy, and it would be very troublesome to use.”

Too heavy?

Yang Nianqing suppressed her anger: "Why do you always come and go without knocking? Aren't you supposed to be very particular about the separation of men and women here?"

Li You murmured, "I forgot that you are a woman."

You deserve a beating!

Yang Nianqing sneered, secretly clenching her fist: "How am I not like a woman?"
