Lian Zhou was Shan Yu’s childhood friend before he traveled through time, and both of them were arranged to be married since Lian Zhou was still in the womb.

If Lian Zhou didn’t play around even though he was interested in Shan Yu, and if Shan Yu was not a straight man, the two of them would definitely become a couple.

Shan Yu suddenly saw his friend’s face and immediately exclaimed. At first, he felt that he was losing his mind, but later he found that the people around him was even more excited than him.

A shuanger dressed in red was supported, his eyebrows were distant like mountains, his eyes were full of allure, and his skin was as white as mutton-fat jade. Even across the high platform, everyone presents was amazed by his beauty.

Shan Yu’s throat rolled, and he was pushed a few steps forward. He tried hard to look at the person in red on the stairs, stared at him closely, and found that the other person also looking at him.

They looked deeply at each other across the crowd and noise, and after a long stare, they confirmed each other’s identities.

The old madam who had been calling out the price was beaming: “My Lian Zhou is so beautiful that even if he enters the palace and become a noble concubine, he could do it. Look at the cinnabar mole on the center of his eyebrow. I’m afraid you won’t be able to find another one in the world…”

As she said this, she pushed Lian Zhou forward so that everyone could see the red mole between his eyebrows.

Shan Yu didn’t care about cinnabar moles. He spent a lot of money and had the right to spend an hour with Lian Zhou among everyone present.

The two looked at each other at close range across a table, and Shan Yu asked tentatively: “What’s your name?”

Lian Zhou was excited, and he couldn’t speak or move because of being drugged. He blinked at Shan Yu desperately. After blinking, he first stared at the lotus roots on the plate, then turned his head slightly and looked at a wooden boat on the dressing table.

Shan Yu drunk the wine in the glass in one gulp, glanced at the maid and servant standing behind the screen, and whispered: “I will find a way to rescue you. You stay here well first, don’t be impulsive, the old bustard will find customer for you. If they just want to drink and chat, you should just go along with it.”

Lian Zhou immediately felt he was being insulted. He glared at Shan Yu angrily, annoyed that his friend was standing and talking without thinking about his condition.

It was rare for Shan Yu to see his friend deflated. He looked at Lian Zhou with a playful look for a moment, then got up and returned to the inn.

.

Wan Qiu had been standing in front of the window since Shan Yu left, waiting for people to appear on the side street, then quickly extinguished the candle and went to bed when he saw Shan Yu.

He wanted to pretend to be asleep, but Shan Yu had a very strong smell of powder and wine. Wan Qiu couldn’t able to ignore it. When he wanted to speak, the man who climbed onto the bed lightly was startled.

“You haven’t slept yet?”

“Husband…where have you been?” Wan Qiu asked boldly, with a trembling tone of grievance that could be heard in his voice.

“I went to a brothel and drank a little wine,” Shan Yu told the truth and got off the bed. “I’m going to wash up.”

Wan Qiu felt like his heart was sinking and he didn’t believe Shan Yu’s lies.

They stayed in the inn. Anyone could drink whenever they wanted. Why should he go to a brothel?

Shan Yu was a man with a bad record, if he said he went to brothel for a cup of wine, who would believe it?

Wan Qiu thought that his husband was addicted to sleeping in brothels. When he had no money, he used to stay in cheap brothels. Now that he had money, he started to run to big brothels again.

Shan Yu was very bad when he had no money, and now that he had money, he turned even worse.

Although Wan Qiu had long thought that such a day would come, he really hoped that Shan Yu would be able to keep his word. But right now, it felt like a slap in the face, but Wan Qiu also expected it.

.

However, Shan Yu was not afraid of anything, and he didn’t notice the mood change in Wan Qiu. When he took Wan Qiu’s pulse the next day, he discovered that the shuanger’s mood was fluctuated so much that he almost had a reverse flow of energy and blood.

He asked strangely: “Is there something bothering you? Your bad mood is not good for the child.”

Wan Qiu lowered his eyelashes and shook his head, whispering, “Maybe I didn’t sleep well last night.”

Shan Yu thought about the nightmare of a pregnant woman and thought it was because he had come back late last night and disturbed Wan Qiu’s sleep. He apologized a little, “It’s all my fault, causing you to be in a bad mood.”

Wan Qiu didn’t expect Shan Yu to say this. Feeling better, after breakfast, he saw Shan Yu asked the waiter to rent a carriage. He couldn’t help but say, “Husband, we can just take the ox cart. The carriage… It’s too expensive.”

“The bullock cart is bumpy, you’ll suffer,” Shan Yu said as he put Wan Qiu into the carriage and gave the driver a few extra copper coins as a tip. He added politely, “My wife is pregnant. Please slow down on the road.”

The coachman, appeased by the extra coins, nodded and said with a smile, “Don’t worry, sir, I won’t let your wife be frightened.”

Shan Yu thanked him with a smile, got on the coach, and saw Wan Qiu’s face was red, guessing that he must hear their talk and felt embarrassed. Shan Yu felt a little uncomfortable and said, “Are you sleepy? Do you want to take a nap?”

Wan Qiu shook his head, curiously touched around, and then looked again, saying to Shan Yu, “Husband, this carriage is more comfortable than an ox-cart. It’s tall, stable, and fast, but it’s a bit…”

He wanted to say it was expensive, but then he remembered last night he kept talking about money and made Shan Yu unhappy, so he stopped talking.

Shan Yu rested in the carriage with his eyes closed and had no time to talk to Wan Qiu because he was feeling a little motion sick.

Although the horse-drawn carriage was better than the ox-cart, for a modern person like Shan Yu, he couldn’t get used to riding in either the ox-cart or the horse-drawn carriage, and he felt like vomiting.

.

Everyone in the village knew that Shan Yu had made a fortune following Grandpa Yaba. Seeing that he was riding a carriage overnight, some were envious and some were bitter.

Everyone gathered in front of Shan Yu’s house to watch the show, watching Shan Yu holding onto a crooked tree and vomiting.

Wan Qiu hurriedly brought a bowl of water to Shan Yu. Grandma Wang, who was watching the excitement, laughed at him while chewing melon seeds, “What’s wrong with you, kid? I didn’t see Wan Qiu vomiting like this even though he was carrying the baby. Could it be that you are pregnant too?”

Shan Yu waved his hands with a red face, begging the old woman to please spare him.

These village women, when they were young, were so shy and would blush when they looked at any man. But when they got older, like Grandma Wang, they turned ruthless and fierce, even a modern man like Shan Yu couldn’t stand it.

“I can’t get used to riding in that carriage, I’m so dizzy,” Shan Yu explained. He originally responded to Grandma Wang, but he didn’t expect to make the onlookers fall back in pain.

His words were like a person who usually took public transportation and suddenly having money to buy a car. After that, he still said to those who could only take public transportation that, “Private cars are not good at all. I feel dizzy and want to vomit.”

What was this? This was simply trying to make people angry, okay?

Shan Yu saw everyone obviously misunderstood what he meant, but he didn’t bother to explain. He was not feeling well and was not in a good mood. He was about to see off the onlookers when he heard Ming Yue in the crowd said:

“What’s so good about a scoundrel who goes around cheating people out of food and drink? Aren’t you like this after taking advantage of Grandpa Yaba?”

Note:

Well, if Lan Zhou was born female, he and Shan Yu would be engaged. But he is a man, so the two didn’t get engaged and still stay as close friend.

Even though Shan Yu is a straight man, he will be bent by our Shou lol
