A lazy bum transmigrates and marries a eunuch – it's awesome!

Xiao Yuan tried hard to suppress the corners of his mouth that wanted to curl up, deliberately keeping a straight face and lightly scolding him for being silly, but his tone carried a doting affection that he himself did not realize.

He even tightened his arm around Jiang Xinyu, fearing she might fall.

He's so happy over some supplements; his little glutton is only interested in food.

Alright, being able to eat is a blessing.

Compared to women who go to great lengths to bring benefits to their families, a young wife who only wants to satisfy her appetite is indeed much more endearing.

At this point, Xiao Yuan hadn't realized that the way his wife ate was barely more expensive than the money she spent on subsidizing her family to buy a house and land.

Moreover, at least other people's things stay with them once they've bought them, but his stuff is all flaunted and you can't even hear a sound from his mouth.

Xiao Yuan curiously touched Jiang Xinyu's belly again.

Although it's slightly swollen, it's not very noticeable. Where did the food go? The volume just doesn't match up.

Moreover, he specifically asked the maid about the lady's toilet habits, and there was nothing unusual about them.

Xiao Yuan was starting to doubt whether his wife was human.

Just last night, Supervisor Xiao, who had been thinking of keeping his distance from Jiang Xinyu to avoid making a fool of himself, broke his promise again.

Aside from still not agreeing to bring the little fox into his den, he also indulged the other party in taking liberties with him for half a day.

Jiang Xinyu, this shameless man, became more and more addicted to playing around, touching and pinching left and right, just like a lecherous playboy harassing respectable women.

This time, the girl learned her lesson and, knowing that Xiao Yuan had some unresolved issues, didn't dare touch anything below his chest.

It's about gently rubbing against each other's hair to let the other person get used to his groping hands.

Jiang Xinyu, as a modern girl, has seen plenty of pigs run even if she has never eaten pork. Regardless of whether she would be scared in a real fight, she has a wealth of theoretical knowledge.

He might not be a match for a playboy or a master of romance, but he'd be more than capable of handling a naive newbie like Xiao Yuan, whose skills are all focused on his work.

The old eunuch Xiao who adopted Xiao Yuan was a man who knew how to use people well, and he raised his several adopted sons in different ways.

Xiao Yuan was ruthless and decisive from a young age. The old eunuch Xiao sent him to study literature and martial arts in order to train him to be a weapon, so he was never made to serve the ladies of the palace.

Firstly, it was due to his personality, and secondly, there was no hormonal influence. Xiao Yuan had little interest in or knowledge of the eunuchs in the harem and their affairs with men and women.

I only occasionally hear a shout and know the general idea, otherwise I wouldn't be twenty-eight years old and still single.

Now it's Jiang Xinyu, that little lecherous woman, who's getting a good deal.

The more he blushed, stiffened, and became at a loss, the happier the girl became, and the more shameless and embarrassing her words became.

After finishing his meal, Xiao Yuan originally intended to rest at the mansion for a while, but Jiang Xinyu's provocation made him unable to sit still. He said that there was something going on at the Eastern Depot and fled in a panic.

Hearing his cheap wife's unrestrained, wicked laughter behind him, Xiao Yuan gritted his teeth.

It's unbelievable that Xiao Yanwang, the dignified head of the Eastern Depot who killed countless people, was scared away by a little girl.

If it were anyone else, he would definitely teach them a lesson.

But this is, after all, his lawfully wedded wife. Is he really going to beat up the other woman just because she was being affectionate with him?

It seems rather shameful.

After Xiao Yuan left, Jiang Xinyu also sent away the maids and servants, closed the courtyard gate, and set her sights on the stone table and chairs in the courtyard.

She felt full of strength, but she dared not smash it, as it would be difficult to explain if she broke it. However, she could try to move the stone table to test her strength.

You know what, those three century-old ginseng roots really weren't eaten for nothing.

Although she couldn't move the stone table, she actually managed to lift the stone block that weighed over 100 pounds.

Jiang Xinyu excitedly hugged the stone block and spun around in a circle. If she weren't afraid of being heard by people outside, she would have screamed a few times.

She made the right decision by arranging a marriage exchange; if she had married into Zhao Chengye's family, it would have been a long time before she regained her superpowers.

Given that family's poor and stingy nature, let alone ginseng, she probably wouldn't even have a chance to eat a bite of meat.

I really don't know what Li Mingyue saw in that bastard.

He spouts platitudes about morality and righteousness but is actually a scoundrel and a womanizer. Aside from his pretty face, he's utterly worthless.

He was incapable of carrying heavy loads, and despite his reputation as a talented scholar, he never passed the imperial examination.

In other words, he was born into a Duke's mansion and had a respectable status, but in terms of his own abilities, he wasn't even worthy of carrying Xiao Yuan's shoes.

Jiang Xinyu's complaints were somewhat influenced by personal grudges. Zhao Chengye's character was flawed, but his talent was quite good.

There's a saying in the imperial examinations: "Thirty is old for a Mingjing (a scholar who has passed the imperial examinations) and fifty is young for a Jinshi (a scholar who has passed the highest level of the imperial examinations)." He's only 19 years old now, so it's not surprising that he hasn't passed the imperial examinations.

As for the inability to carry heavy loads on one's shoulders or lift heavy objects with one's hands, that's not really a drawback.

The Great Jin Dynasty valued literature over martial arts, and the ideal of a refined and gentle gentleman was prevalent. Wielding swords and spears was something only uncouth people did, and scholars never bothered with it.

It's fair to say that if Li Mingyue didn't know Zhao Chengye's true character, her judgment was absolutely spot on; the problem lies with Jiang Xinyu, this outsider.

In any case, that is indeed the case for now. Even though Li Mingyue found that the Ningguo Duke's Mansion was not what she had imagined, she still firmly believed that she had gained something.

Since the incident involving the exchange of brides yesterday, the Ningguo Duke's mansion has been shrouded in gloom and despair.

Madam Li gave her daughter a long, worried lecture, and then reluctantly left, leaving behind her personal nanny and two maids.

She knew very well that when she returned to the Li family, she would surely face the wrath of the master.

Even if they didn't send her to the family temple due to the sensitive nature of the situation, they would still keep her under strict supervision in the Buddhist hall.

but it does not matter.

Her daughter is now the wife of the heir apparent of the Duke of Ningguo's mansion.

The Emperor himself said it was a preordained marriage and that the Prince of Zhao should live a good life, so the Ningguo Duke's mansion dared not do anything to her daughter.

Her husband has always been a bully who preys on the weak and fears the strong. Even if he were to consider his daughter's status, he wouldn't kill her.

She'll only have to endure a few days of hardship. She hasn't worked for nothing all these years in the Li family. She's just putting on a show to give the clan leader a way out. It won't be long before she can get out of there.

Madam Li is now quite grateful to Jiang Xinyu. This girl is capable; she won over Eunuch Xiao as soon as she married into the family.

She was self-aware enough to know that her methods might fool ordinary people, but if the Eastern Depot investigated thoroughly, they would be exposed.

The fact that the Emperor is now handling things so leniently must be because Supervisor Xiao is helping to cover it up and plead for leniency; the reason is self-evident.

From this perspective, she owes the Jiang family girl a huge favor.

Madam Li returned to the Li residence with the Li clan patriarch. As soon as she entered the courtyard, she was slapped to the ground by Lord Li.

Old Man Li was furious.

He was cautious in his words and deeds all his life, never daring to make a mistake, but unexpectedly he married a poisonous snake and had a baby snake.

This mother and daughter are putting the Li family in a very dangerous situation; if things go wrong, the whole family could lose their lives.

Watching Vice Minister Li punch and kick the Li clan chief, he stroked his beard and remained silent.

The outcome of this matter is good, but a woman who is so audacious and willful must be taught a lesson.

Li is shrewd, and he's not stupid either. Saying it's for the sake of the family's reputation is just an excuse; he's only willing to take a gamble for her daughter's sake.

As a wife of the Li family, she should think of everything for the Li family. Even though Li Shilang's sons were all born to concubines, they should still call her "mother".

This foolish woman's behavior of disregarding the lives of her entire family for the sake of her own daughter is truly despicable.
