Transmigrated As A Delicate Bundle Of Luck For A Farming Family

735 Drunken Words

The strong wine burned his throat. Hu Changshou took a deep breath and put down the wine bowl. He smiled and said, “Miss Bai Xu, there’s no need to thank me. I’m very happy to be friends with you.”

Hu Changshou picked up a piece of fish for Bai Xu and said gently, “Miss Bai Xu, try this fish. It’s a sea fish from the foreign land. It tastes very delicious and is very good for the body. Two years ago, this fish was very expensive, but it’s cheaper now. You can buy five for a tael of silver.”

The price of the white fish was now something ordinary people would occasionally buy to eat because there were too many of them.

The smaller ones were cheaper.

When it first appeared, not to mention ordinary people, even many rich merchants and nobles could not afford it.

Bai Xu ate the fish and thanked him softly. Then, she poured wine for Hu Changshou.

The two of them ate and drank slowly.

Gradually, Hu Changshou became drunk.

Bai Xu started to fish for information. “Brother Hu, are you getting bullied? It’s alright, tell me. I won’t tell anyone. Although I can’t help you much, we’re friends.”

Hu Changshou’s consciousness was in a mess. He looked at Bai Xu with slightly red eyes. He thought of Sun Baoshan and Chu Li and felt a little suffocated. He sighed and said, “No, nothing…”

“The person she likes is him. I have no power or influence. I can’t make the decision to begin with…”

Hu Changshou’s tone was calm as he looked at Bai Xu. That feeling of sympathy came again. He smiled and said, “Miss Bai Xu, we’re the same. We’re powerless. It’s all because we’re too weak that we lost a lot of opportunities.”

Bai Xu smiled and filled Hu Changshou’s glass. “Brother Hu, do you like that woman very much?”

Hu Changshou shook his head. “I don’t like her very much. It’s just that Miss Chu Li is too good of a person. I don’t have the right to criticize her. She and Young Master Sun are in love. They should be fated. I, the person who interfered, was just a misunderstanding.”

Hu Changshou had the intention to confide in her. Under the pretext of being drunk, he said everything he didn’t dare to say.

He knew that he was being petty, but what could he do? This was the real him.

He was just unhappy.

Bai Xu was very quiet. Hearing Hu Changshou’s words, she roughly understood why Hu Changshou was unhappy.

Hu Changshou was completely drunk.

Bai Xu walked to his side and bent down to carry him on his back before sending him back to his room.

Seeing that Hu Changshou was fast asleep, Bai Xu began to pack her things.

She went out in the middle of the night.

Bai Xu successfully found the Chu Residence. The General’s Mansion was heavily guarded, but this was not a problem for her.

She focused and her figure gradually became transparent under the moonlight. That’s right, this was her superpower. Her superpower was invisibility.

Bai Xu did not know the layout of the Chu Residence and entered a courtyard first. She leaned against the corner and listened. She immediately frowned.

It was a woman’s suppressed voice, in pain or in pleasure, and a man’s panting.

No matter how stupid she was, she knew that this was not Chu Li’s room. Chu Li was not married, so there could not be a man in her room.

Bai Xu changed to another courtyard and her face heated up even more.

“Yuanyuan, am I good?”

The man asked shamelessly.

The woman said shyly, “Yes…”

Bai Xu did not dare to eavesdrop anymore and could only change again.

She was over 14 years old and did not know much about the things between men and women. In the past, when she was with Grandma, she did not understand because Grandma said that men were all trash. If she looked at any man, she would be humiliated by Grandma no matter the reason.

In the few months she had been in the capital, those with dirty thoughts were just trying to sell her to those places. She knew even more.

She also felt very disgusted and quickly sneaked into another courtyard. This time, the courtyard was quiet. She heaved a sigh of relief. Finally, there was a normal courtyard.

There was a maidservant guarding the outer sect at night. She was dozing off and Bai Xu went to her side to tap her acupoints. The maidservant fell asleep.

Bai Xu entered the inner room. A girl was lying quietly on the bed, already sound asleep.

Chu Li suddenly woke up. She was very vigilant. “Who is it?”

There was only one candle flame, and the house was not bright.

But it was empty. There was nothing. Chu Li propped herself up and looked around before starting to call for maidservants.

The maidservant was fast asleep and could not wake up for a while.

Bai Xu did not expect Chu Li to be so vigilant. She did not want to do anything and just wanted to see Chu Li.

Chu Li was delicate and beautiful. Bai Xu could not feel any internal breath from her. She was just an ordinary person. Her vigilant eyes showed that she was an intelligent woman.

Bai Xu could not help but think that if she was Hu Changshou, she would like such a woman too.

It was true that they did not know each other and did not have much feelings for each other, but if she was married to such a girl, she would not refuse.

Bai Xu slowly retreated.

Chu Li had already gotten out of bed. She felt that there was someone in the house, but she didn’t see anyone. Her heart was racing, so she got up to wake the maidservant up to sleep with her.

Bai Xu did not stay any longer and left very quickly. She only came to see what Chu Li looked like.

Chu Li was still uneasy. She pushed the maidservants who were on night watch.

The maidservant gradually woke up with a blank expression. Then, she woke up and immediately apologized. “Miss, I’m sorry. I was too sleepy.”

Chu Li’s tone was gentle. “It’s fine. I had a nightmare. I can’t sleep alone. Sleep with me.”

Chu Li made up an excuse.

The maidservant nodded and the master and servant entered the room together.

After Bai Xu left the Chu Residence, he went straight to the Sun residence.

She could not help Hu Changshou much, but it was not a problem for her to help him beat up Sun Baoshan.

Sun Baoshan had an undeniable responsibility in this matter. He was already of marriageable age and had not spoken his mind for a long time. The Chu family did not know either. It was human nature for them to choose a good marriage for their beloved daughter.

Then, Sun Baoshan went to propose marriage. General Chu and Mrs. Chu, who doted on Chu Li, naturally wanted to fulfill their daughter’s wish.

After missing out on a good fate, Hu Changshou was naturally disappointed. However, he could not blame anyone. Marriage could only be decided by the Chu family. He lost to Sun Baoshan because Chu Li had Sun Baoshan in her heart. He did not have deep feelings for Chu Li and could not do anything to pester her.

It was even more impossible for him to hit Sun Baoshan.

What he could not do, Bai Xu could do. Sun Baoshan was not someone she knew, so she did not need to care about those complicated relationships.

Entering the Sun residence was much simpler. This time, Bai Xu did not find the wrong person.

She patted Sun Baoshan’s shoulder. Sun Baoshan opened his eyes in surprise and exclaimed, “Who is it?”

Bai Xu clenched her fists and punched Sun Baoshan’s nose.

Sun Baoshan was in pain. Before he could cry out in pain, a warm current surged out of his nose, and blood was already flowing out of his nose.

“You are…”

Sun Baoshan was very surprised. He looked at Bai Xu in unfamiliarity and fear. He did not know this girl at all. Why did she sneak into his room in the middle of the night and beat him up?
