Jiu Zhang Ji: The Daily Life of the Reborn Daughter

Chapter 33 Extras Appear

How can people who want to watch the fun watch quietly? The throat has been moistened by the big bowl of tea and it is clear. There is no need to keep it for anything.

"Hey, is this General Bai? He really looks like a human."

"Who is that woman? Why is she kneeling in front of the Duke Dingguo's mansion?"

A hidden official from the Duke of Dingguo's Mansion explained the mystery. "It must be General Bai's mistress."

"Whose girl is this? She's pretty."

"A whore who had an affair without a matchmaker, no matter how pretty she is, is not worth keeping. You didn't see it. We were watching the debt collection at the gate of Bai's house that day. When we saw them coming back from outside the city, the woman's hair was messy, her body was limp, and there were grass leaves stuck to her clothes. There were marks on her neck that looked like they were gnawed by a dog. Tsk tsk tsk tsk, you bachelor, you don't understand."

"Yes, he is a bachelor and doesn't know shit. That day, my cousin's wife's nephew's brother-in-law and a group of boys were digging bird nests in the woods by the Ximi River. They happened to see these two people fighting, tumbling and tossing for more than an hour, screaming shamelessly, and their delicate skin and tender flesh were so bare that the boys' eyes were bloodshot and they couldn't get down from the tree."

The conversation was described so vividly that the blood of the young and strong men boiled after hearing it. They stared at the pretty figure kneeling on the ground, and those who were hunched over did not dare to stand up.

"On the day General Bai came back, some of these kids had been to the city gate tower and knew these two people. You live far away, but the news has spread all over our area. Those damn kids even knew how many moles there were on their buttocks."

Are there any moles on the buttocks? How many are there? You dare to say it. Just say it. Can Lou Xinyue say it is wrong? Can she take off her pants to verify it?

"Tsk tsk tsk tsk, to say they are having an affair without a matchmaker is flattering them. They can hunt for food anytime and anywhere. I've never seen such a thing in my life. Tsk tsk tsk tsk." He made a "tsk tsk" sound and smacked his lips as he spoke, as if he was tasting something.

"How can she be a girl from a good family? When I saw her weird look, I knew she was a whore from a brothel."

This seemingly true and false discussion soon swept the entire crowd of onlookers. The men's eyes were glued to Lou Xinyue's neck, ears, face, every strand of hair, all the exposed parts and exquisite curves.

Women keep envy in their hearts, but show contempt, jealousy and disgust on their faces and in their mouths.

"She has been a disgrace to us women all her life. Look at that vixen face of hers. She should be scratched to pieces so that she won't go around seducing men."

"She is so shameless. She came to the gate of Duke Dingguo's mansion with such brazenness. She should be caught and thrown into a pig cage."

"How dare she do such a thing? Yes, she should be thrown into a pig cage. Let's see how she can continue to act coquettishly."

When women curse other women, they are especially vicious because they know where it hurts.

"Why are they coming to the gate of the Duke Dingguo's Mansion? Are they disgusting? The Duke Dingguo's Mansion is a family of loyal heroes. Several generations of Duke Dingguo died in battle to protect the territory of Dayan. They are dirtying the place in front of the Duke Dingguo's Mansion by coming here." Someone changed the subject.

"What else could she do? She was just begging for forgiveness. You may not know that the daughter of the Duke Dingguo's mansion was engaged to General Bai. After she promised him not to take a concubine, she followed his father and brother to the battlefield to gain military merit."

Bai Junzhe's military merits were accumulated by his father and brother and were attributed to him so that he could come back and marry Qiao Lili in a grand manner.

Qiao Lili thought about it and decided that she couldn't tell the truth, otherwise her father and brother would also be charged with deceiving the emperor. However, she could say that she was trying to gain military merit. The word "taking advantage" could be interpreted in a wide range of ways, and the people would have their own ideas, so it wouldn't be a problem for her father and brother.

"When he left, he swore that he would come back and marry her. Then, after gaining military merit and being called General Bai, he came back with such a piece of slut. How many people saw him on the city gate tower that day?"

"Yes, out of anger, they threw rotten vegetable leaves and rotten eggs all over them."

"Even the emperor couldn't stand it anymore. It is said that he personally said to cancel the engagement at the grand court meeting." When the man mentioned the emperor, he bowed to the air, showing great respect.

"It's good that you retreated. The Duke Dingguo Mansion is not the same kind of people as them. Don't let such scum tarnish your reputation again."

"You've already called off the engagement, why are you still here? Are you refusing to call it quits? Or are you coming here to make a scene? This is really too much."

Another know-it-all squeezed into the crowd and said, "You don't know, Bai Junzhe's mother and sister lived an extravagant life during the four years when Bai Junzhe was at the border. What? I don't know what it means. Actually, I don't understand it either. I heard this term in the Dali Temple. It means they eat the best and wear the best. If they don't have money, they buy on credit. In four years, they have spent 40,000 taels of silver."

"It's true. I know that. When the shopkeepers heard that Bai Junzhe had finally returned, they all came to collect the debt. But Bai Junzhe's salary was so low that he couldn't afford 40,000 taels of silver. So they had no choice but to sell the Bai Mansion."

"The emperor said that he doesn't have an official with an annual salary of 10,000 taels of silver, so Bai Junzhe doesn't even have an official position now."

"I have no money, no house, no official position, and I only have this piece of shit. This piece of shit is good for that thing, what else can she do?"

"Yes, if you beg on your knees, the daughter of the Duke of Dingguo's mansion might soften her heart and agree to get back together. As long as we get back together, we will have everything we need for our living and daily necessities right away, right?"

"That's really what happened. He has bad intentions."

The discussion was sometimes loud and sometimes quiet, but everyone who should have heard it heard it.

Bai Junzhe and Lou Xinyue were far away, but through the obscene and contemptuous looks they received, as well as the words they heard, they knew in their hearts that there is no impenetrable wall in the world, and not all people are fools.

The two of them felt as if they had been stripped naked. They wished they could find a crack in the ground to crawl into and leave. However, they were unwilling to do so. They had already persisted for so long. Maybe if they held on a little longer, they would be able to see Qiao Lili.

If he returned without success, his mother and sister would definitely make a fuss. Thinking of the mother and daughter, Bai Junzhe's head began to hurt severely.
