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

Chapter 107 A natural match

The two old women were both confidantes of the aunt, so they naturally knew why the eldest daughter of the Jiang family had been invited this time. They heard that Chief Supervisor Xiao might also be going and was so happy he was practically dizzy.

The two of them didn't hear Jiang Xinyu speak at all. Xiao Yuan waved his hand and happily returned to the Marquis's residence to report the news, completely ignoring the fact that the Grand Eunuch hadn't given them a friendly look the whole time.

The lackeys in the mansions are used to flattering the powerful and belittling the weak. In their eyes, powerful people should be stern and imposing without anger.

Chief Supervisor Xiao already had a notorious reputation, so it would be a surprise if he were to show a kind expression.

Therefore, when the two of them replied to the Lady of the House, neither of them thought to mention that Governor Xiao's expression was unfriendly.

When Madam Bo heard that Xiao Yuan had also come, she felt relieved and glad that the Grand Eunuch was willing to acknowledge them as relatives.

I never expected that the girl from the Jiang family was truly a vixen reincarnated; she could even bewitch a eunuch.

The lady's personal maid was so happy she kept chanting Buddhist prayers, and flattered her with a beaming smile.

"Madam, you don't need to worry anymore. As long as we get in touch with Chief Supervisor Xiao, our uncle and second son-in-law's matter will definitely be resolved."

Even though places at the Imperial Academy are so precious, they're given to people just by a word.

It was just reselling some old grain; in the eyes of the head of the Eastern Depot, it was no big deal.

"You are, after all, the eldest daughter of the Jiang family's cousin. We're relatives, and it's not like we're refusing to give you money. Chief Supervisor Xiao certainly won't refuse."

Lady Bo was delighted, but still couldn't help asking with a question.

"Do you really think that girl doesn't hold grudges?"

An'er almost took liberties with her back then, and I was afraid she would interfere.

The old nanny, however, did not take it seriously. "Madam is overthinking it. She is destined to have no children after marrying a eunuch. In the future, she can only rely on her maternal family."

You know how the Jiang family treated her, yet she still managed to get a place at the Imperial Academy for her half-brother during her homecoming.

She's a fool who's been deliberately spoiled by the Liu family. You can just say a few nice words to coax her.

As for our Third Young Master's matter, you can trust this old servant; she's even more afraid of being found out by Supervisor Xiao than we are.

The more you lack something, the more you care about it; you can't talk about your shortcomings in front of a cripple.

Even a normal man can't stand the thought of his wife having been with another man before, let alone a eunuch who has lost his manhood.

Eunuchs love to torture people; if they found out, they'd beat her to death.

The lady nodded in deep agreement, instructed the nanny to check the banquet menu again, and then knelt down in front of the Bodhisattva to pray.

She's having a hard time.

The old lady completely disregarded her stepmother, having been taken care of by the son and daughter left behind by the first wife.

She toiled away for so many years, only to give birth to a son and a daughter, but then An'er was murdered and turned into a fool.

She can no longer have children, so besides hoping that her daughter-in-law will give her a grandson soon, she can only rely on her daughter and son-in-law.

Unfortunately, her husband's family's scandal has now come to light, implicating her brother from her own family as well. If something were to happen to them, she and An'er would probably not have a good life in this household.

Jiang Xinyu, of course, was unaware that Madam Bo had already planned to use past events to coerce her into intervening when bribery failed. Seeing Xiao Yuan dismiss the two old women, she looked at him with amusement and asked in confusion,

"Aren't you impatient with these kinds of social obligations? Why would you be willing to go to his house to celebrate his birthday?"

"You're no longer going to be a loyal minister?"

"I only said I would go, not that I was going to celebrate a birthday. Is it wrong to just confiscate their property?"

Xiao Yuan unconsciously tapped the armrest of the chair with one hand and said coldly,

“If you had told me earlier that his family had a grudge against you, I would have dealt with them long ago. Now, he's more like a funeral than a birthday banquet.”

When Xiao Yuan said this, his eyes flashed with a fierce light and his murderous aura was overflowing, just like a demon. But it just so happened to hit Jiang Xinyu's cute spot, and the little lecherous girl let out a howl and pounced on him.

While clinging to him like a monkey, he used both hands to knead Governor Xiao's cold face into a round, fleshy bun.

"My dear husband, you're so cute when you're being crazy. Be fiercer, be fiercer, and I'll give you a kiss."

Xiao Yuan supported his wife's lower back with one hand to prevent her from falling, and unconsciously patted her bottom with the other.

"I'm at my fiercest when I whip people, do you want to go and see for yourself in the imperial prison?"

Jiang Xinyu scoffed dismissively.

"What's so interesting about whipping someone? If there's ever a scene where someone's skinned alive by a thousand cuts, save me a spot."

I heard that the most severe form of death by a thousand cuts can be performed, and the internal organs can be seen through a thin membrane, yet the person still doesn't die. Is it really that miraculous?

And then there's the skinning process. Is it done with a knife or by making a hole in the top of the head and pouring mercury in to let the skin and flesh separate naturally?

Should they be tied to a frame and skinned, or buried in the ground and wait for the person to jump out of the skin with a whoosh?

It's not like they used sealing wax, is it? If they did, wouldn't the skin be impossible to peel off completely?

Why aren't you saying anything, my husband? Is all you know how to do?

"That's really pathetic. Do you want your wife to teach you a few tricks?"

Xiao Yuan was both amused and exasperated as he listened to his wife's rapid-fire rambling.

Damn it, who's the real devil here? From now on, if anyone dares to call him a pervert, I'll introduce my wife to them no matter what.

See, that's what you call perverted.

He's practically born with the divine body of the Eastern Depot. If it weren't for his wife, he would have poached this talent to work for the Eastern Depot no matter what.

But now is not the time to talk about this. Xiao Yuan suddenly smiled wickedly and whispered in Jiang Xinyu's ear,

"Madam, may you have good fortune!"

After Xiao Yuan finished speaking, he lifted his wife off his lap and pressed her onto a chair. Then he took two quick steps and rushed out of the flower hall, closing the door behind him.

Jiang Xinyu then realized that her aunt had been sitting next to her the whole time, and her face was now as black as the bottom of a pot, on the verge of exploding.

Damn it, I'm doomed. She forgot about her aunt.

Just now, since Xiao Yuan was here, Madam Wang didn't say anything. Now that only the mother and son are left in the room, what are they waiting for?

That brat is getting out of control if she's not disciplined for three days straight; she's practically tearing the roof off with her teeth. If we don't teach her a lesson soon, she'll cause a complete disaster.

Madam Wang may love her children, but she can be truly fierce when she gets angry. She rolled up her sleeves and headed straight for Jiang Xinyu.

Holy crap, Xiao Yuan, you tricked me!

Jiang Xinyu was grabbed by the ear by her aunt and let out a wail.

"You damned eunuch, you just wait! If you've got the guts, don't come back for the next couple of days, and see what happens... Ouch, Aunt, Aunt, have mercy!"

Jiang Xinyu's harsh words were cut short by two slaps from Madam Wang. Perhaps to avoid being slapped again, the girl wandered around the flower hall, and finally sat down on the ground with a thud and refused to get up.

Madam Wang, furious, poked her forehead and said angrily.

“You are nothing like a lady from a respectable family; even a shrew from the marketplace would have to admit defeat.”

You should at least try to be a lady, even if you're not one. How can you be so unrestrained in front of your husband?

Your remarks just now were a perfect example of a wicked woman; most people would divorce you based on that alone.

My son, you're lucky that someone wants you. Can't you just behave yourself?

Frame someone else isn't so easy; what if Chief Supervisor Xiao really rejects you?

Seeing that her aunt was really worried, Jiang Xinyu quickly got up, hugged her aunt's arm, and acted coquettishly.

"One thing finds its master: saline-alkali land breeds cicadas. That scoundrel is no good himself, so why does he complain that I'm poisonous?"

Dear Aunt, please don't worry. We share the same values, are birds of a feather, and are in cahoots.

The most important thing for a couple is that they are compatible in their daily lives.

Different strokes for different folks. If I were virtuous, dignified, and well-educated, he might not feel comfortable at all.

"Evil people will be punished by other evil people. He's done so many wicked things in the past, he deserves to have a wife like me to teach him a lesson."

Madam Wang was amused by her niece's absurd reasoning, and pinched her cheeks with a mixture of amusement and exasperation.

"You, you really are a fool with good luck, even a marriage exchange can bring you a good husband."

Jiang Xinyu nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, fools have good fortune, but idiots don't, so the Liu family of Jianghuai can't beat me."

Dear Aunt, let's not talk about those unhappy things.

"Once the glass is fired up, our Qian family will be rich! My aunt will back me up and make those jealous bastards furious."

Madam Wang looked at her clever and cunning niece and sighed helplessly. "It's easier to change mountains and rivers than to change one's nature. This child is beyond saving."

While comforting her aunt, Jiang Xinyu couldn't help but glare at the door.

That damned eunuch is getting more and more cheeky. Looks like I need to teach him a lesson so he'll know who's in charge.
