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

Chapter 124 Coming up with ideas

Jiang Xinyu knew Jin Zekang was a pretty despicable person from the booklet he sent her, but she never expected him to be such a gossip.

Just when Liu Xu had finally emerged from the gloom and was ready to start afresh, she ran into this guy.

Seeing Liu Xu's red-rimmed eyes and embarrassed expression, Jiang Xinyu didn't hold back.

After criticizing Jin Zekang, Jiang Xinyu patted Liu Xu on the shoulder.

"Your current demeanor is completely different from before; no one will recognize you."

This guy said those things on purpose to annoy me, based on his own research and guesswork. Just ignore what he said.

At this point, Jiang Xinyu glared at Jin Zekang with disgust again.

"Am I giving you face, or do you think I'm easy to bully?"

"You come here to spout some sarcastic remarks that only hurt others and don't benefit yourself. Do you have a penchant for being insulted?"

Liu Xu never expected that this sharp-tongued man was actually a prince. Seeing Jiang Xinyu's impoliteness, she quickly said, "Never mind, never mind."

Jin Zekang had witnessed Jiang Xinyu's skill in cursing before, but he never expected that she would take his casual remark so seriously.

Enough, a good man doesn't argue with a woman.

He's well-versed in classical texts and wouldn't utter such vulgar language.

His Highness Prince An has been biding his time and playing the fool for so many years, he's quite adept at it.

He came here today to deliver the list and discuss cooperation; there's no need to fall out with Jiang Xinyu over such a trivial matter.

Moreover, he also realized that the male prostitute seemed to want to reform and not be recognized, which meant he had essentially stabbed him in the back.

It's really strange that the lady of the house would defend a prostitute like this. It's not unreasonable for him to suspect that the two of them are having an affair.

But he dared not say those words again, and bowed helplessly.

"Let's just consider it an slip of the tongue. Madam Xiao has already done her scolding, so let's just let this matter go."

I am using the pseudonym Yue Chen. Madam Xiao may address me as Yue Qianli.

"May I speak to you in private?"

Seeing that the other party had something to talk about, Liu Xu left. Jiang Xinyu handed the horse to Xiao Die and pointed to a large rock in an open space not far away.

"Let's go over there. It's open space, so we won't be easily overheard and we'll avoid being misunderstood by some petty people."

I'm an innocent person and don't want to be smeared with dirty water.

Prince An awkwardly touched his nose and handed the horse to his attendant.

Women are so petty; they can't let this go, can they?

Jiang Xinyu didn't stand on ceremony. She found a relatively flat rock, sat down impatiently, and nodded at Prince An with her chin.

"Speak your mind, have you brought the list over yet?"

"If you don't bring it over, I'll beat you up as interest."

Prince An had never seen such a bold and unrestrained woman in his life. Anyone who didn't know her would think she was some kind of mountain bandit chief.

Although Jiang Huai was a man of questionable character, he was still from a scholarly family. How could he have raised such a reckless and unruly daughter?

But you know what?

Having seen so many seemingly gentle but actually vicious women in the inner palace, Prince An was quite willing to deal with such women.

Jiang Xinyu looked through the list handed over by Prince An and nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad, very detailed."

As for whether it was real or fake, she had no way of knowing, so she left it to Xiao Yuan to judge for himself.

Jiang Xinyu picked up the list and waved her hand, "Is everything alright now? Then everyone go back to your own homes and find your own mothers. I won't be providing meals here."

Prince An laughed in exasperation, "Madam Xiao, you don't need to be so stingy. You took something so important from me and you can't even afford a meal?"

"Damn, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want."

Jiang Xinyu rubbed the goosebumps on her arms.

"What do you mean by something so important to you?"

It's just a list. Don't act like I took your virginity. You might not care about your reputation, but I do.

There's no way we can talk today.

Prince An, who usually likes to interpret eight hundred meanings in a single sentence, was speechless for the first time. Wouldn't Xiao Yuan have a heart attack if he married such a mythical beast and kept it at home?

Seeing that Jiang Xinyu was indeed impatient to talk to him, Jin Zekang stopped beating around the bush.

Besides delivering the list, there was another matter he was unsure about that he wanted to ask Jiang Xinyu's opinion on.

This woman has a keen eye for things and her strategies are unconventional. Perhaps listening to her unorthodox views can give him some inspiration.

Of course, the main reason was that he had received some information related to the couple and was unwilling to give it away for nothing, so he thought he might as well ask about his own problem as well.

When Jiang Xinyu heard that Prince An wanted to ask for advice, she sat down again and raised her hand to indicate that he should speak frankly.

She wasn't afraid of Prince An troubling her.

When two people who don't really trust each other work together for the first time, nothing major will happen; they'll just be testing each other's behavior and credibility.

Relationships are built up little by little. Although Jin Zekang is despicable, he is capable and a suitable partner for Jiang Xinyu, who has no other way to help Xiao Yuan.

Jin Zekang was surprised that Jiang Xinyu was so sharp-tongued but also so magnanimous. He didn't hold back and briefly recounted his past with Xie Zhuo.

Being gay is not the right path for Longyang. He discovered his sexual orientation when he was young and made plans early on, which is why he has not married at this age.

But Ah Zhuo is different. Ah Zhuo wasn't born liking men, and he was afraid that Ah Zhuo might have other women.

Of the three unfilial acts, the greatest is having no offspring. There are many men who are fond of homosexuality, but apart from those like him who are naturally unable to accept women, the vast majority are bisexual.

He's a vicious man; he would never allow Ah Zhuo to be touched by anyone else.

But the problem they are facing now is not only that the Xie family is about to arrange a marriage for A-Zhuo, but also that they are afraid that A-Zhuo will sleep with other people in order to have a child.

He would go crazy if A-Zhuo really slept with someone else; he would rather fake his death and imprison A-Zhuo.

Jiang Xinyu looked at the somewhat deranged Prince An and curled her lip in disdain.

"You can't have children yourself, yet you won't let others have them. Young Master Xie must be incredibly unlucky to have fallen in love with you."

"If you really want to calculate it, you've committed one of the seven grounds for divorce."

"Madam Xiao, there's no need to mock me. I demand that Azhuo be pure and virtuous, and of course I myself remain chaste."

"I find sleeping with women disgusting, not that I can't sleep with them, but for A-Zhuo's sake, I've even abandoned the royal lineage, so A-Zhuo can't have children either."

After Jin Zekang finished speaking, he sneered, "If Madam Xiao can give birth but your husband can't, does Chief Supervisor Xiao expect you to have children with someone else?"

Humans are inherently selfish; I do not consider myself despicable.

Jiang Xinyu nodded in agreement, "Alright, actually we're all the same kind of people. We'd rather smash our own things than let others use them."

Let me tell you my opinion.

The Xie family's pressure to get married is easy to handle. You've been single ever since, because you lost three fiancées in a row and were labeled a jinx who shouldn't get married.

Then let's follow the same approach and use metaphysical discourse to silence public opinion.

However, I am not as immoral as you, harming innocent young girls.

The Xie family's pressure to get married is obviously a sacrifice of their own people. What could be more suitable for delaying marriage than observing mourning?

I've also read the records about the Eastern Depot. It seems that it wasn't a big deal that the entire family died out.

Actually, none of that is the point. The point is whether Xie Zhuo is willing to be with you for life.

If he has ulterior motives, he will always find a way to make an excuse.

Unless you lock him up, you can't guard against thieves forever.

There's also the matter of having children.

Some people value their offspring very much. If you forcefully cut off someone's lineage, there's no guarantee that Xie Zhuo won't resent you in the future.

Here's what I think: the more you lack something, the more you'll be obsessed with it. If Xie Zhuo likes children, why not let him have a few?

Don't glare at me yet. I said let him have a child, not let him sleep with other people.

Not only can he have children, but you can too. You might even have a child that's so small it's hard to tell which one is yours.
