Reborn as the Blissful Wife in the countryside-Chapter 1105: Thank You for Cursing Me

The shopkeeper of Xu Inn quickly said, "Young Master Dou, you mustn’t do that. If she really jumps, how will our inn continue to do business?"

Damn, their inn really got a stroke of bad luck. They thought they had taken on a big business deal, but who knew they had actually taken on a big trouble? The room wasn’t even warm yet, and now she’s causing a scene about jumping into a well. On such a hot day, is she deliberately making things difficult for this shopkeeper?

Young Master Dou casually replied, "Don’t worry, if she jumps, we’ll save her immediately, she won’t die."

Xu Inn’s shopkeeper: "...You should still go and persuade her."

Don’t say such frightening things. What if we’re too late to save her and she dies?!

Liu Eryu saw Young Master Dou and was very happy, her eyes lit up, and she waved at him, saying, "Young Master Dou, you’re here. Sob, sob, sob, I knew you would come. You’re so kind, you definitely wouldn’t just watch me die."

Young Master Dou: "You think I’m kind, so you’re threatening me with death? Liu Eryu, is that all you’ve got? You’ve even learned how to play dirty tricks!"

Liu Eryu quickly said, "No, I’m not trying to force you to marry me. I want to force you to report to the authorities and catch those evil men who robbed you."

"Isn’t this still threatening with death?" Young Master Dou said angrily, "Liu Eryu, I’m warning you, getting robbed is my own business. I have a lot of money; I enjoy being robbed by them. What does it have to do with you? What are you making a fuss about? Get over here, now!"

If Liu Eryu would have come so easily, she wouldn’t have clung to Young Master Dou to the point where the whole town knew.

Liu Eryu always felt that Young Master Dou was quite good to her. So, hearing this, she looked at Young Master Dou in disbelief and then shouted, "You fool! It’s because you always throw money around that you get robbed. Haven’t you learned a lesson? Do you think having lots of money is enough? The richer you are, the more dangerous it is. If you don’t catch those evil men who robbed you, you’ll be robbed even more next time. The time after that, you’ll attract powerful bandits who’ll steal all your property and then rip you to pieces!"

Young Master Dou: "..."

Thank you for cursing me.

Dou Zhi nodded in agreement: "Hmm, what Eryu said makes sense."

"Shut up, whose side are you on?" Young Master Dou glared at Dou Zhi, pointing at Liu Eryu: "I know you’re doing it for my own good, but you’re worrying for nothing. My family is wealthy enough to maintain Shadow Guards."

"What are Shadow Guards?" Mrs. Liu curiously asked, "Can shadows even work?"

Young Master Dou wanted to bang his head against the wall!

Nanny Tang said, "Shadow Guards are Protectors hidden in the shadows. They protect the young master and prevent any accidents for him."

Mrs. Liu sneered and said, "Then the Shadow Guards that Young Master Dou maintains are useless. He got beaten up badly this time, and no Shadow Guard came to save him."

Liu Eryu nodded vigorously, saying, "My mom is right!"

Nanny Tang was at a loss for words and looked at Young Master Dou’s face, which was indeed battered almost beyond recognition: "It’s because the Shadow Guards fell for the enemy’s trick, leading the tiger away from the mountain, so there was a brief moment when the young master was unprotected, which is why this happened."

Mrs. Liu: "Trick or no trick, it’s just that the Shadow Guards are useless."

Nanny Tang stopped talking.

Dou Zhi also didn’t say anything, it was too embarrassing.

Young Master Dou was choked up for a good quarter of an hour, unable to speak. In the end, he could only walk over, grab Liu Eryu, and shout, "Get over here, have you become addicted to causing trouble? Let me tell you, this was an accident, and I, the young master, will take my own revenge. You don’t need to worry blindly."

He tried to pull her away from the well, but Liu Eryu was sturdy and strong, her hands clinging onto the well’s edge, refusing to let go: "How does the young master plan to take revenge? Can you really avenge yourself? Or won’t you even be able to find them?"

She was very skeptical of the Dou Family’s Shadow Guards’ abilities. After all, if they were effective, Young Master Dou wouldn’t have been robbed.

Young Master Dou was frustrated, so angry he wanted to kill. He had no choice but to roar, "My family’s Shadow Guards have already found those evil men and are teaching them a lesson."

He lowered his voice, saying, "They might even be beaten to death by my family’s Shadow Guards, so don’t go around telling anyone about this, understand?"

Beaten, beaten to death!

Liu Eryu was shocked, staring at Young Master Dou with horror, her eyes clearly saying: So, you’re this ruthless.

She just wanted those evil men arrested and imprisoned.

Looking at her expression, Young Master Dou sneered: "What, are you scared? Did you really think I, the young master, could roam Great Chu without any skills? You’ve thought too much. Some things, the young master just doesn’t want to make widely known, but the revenge that needs to be taken will definitely be taken, so don’t worry."

But this time, he really couldn’t take revenge because the ones who beat him were Young Master Qin’s people. He could only endure it and couldn’t let outsiders know or detect any signs, so he had to find such an excuse.

Actually, it wasn’t really an excuse. If the ones who beat him weren’t Young Master Qin, but actual robbers, he would indeed send the Shadow Guards to eliminate the evil men, not report it to the authorities.

For someone of his status, reporting everything to the authorities would be very troublesome. The Dou Family and his stepmother’s family would take the opportunity to stir up trouble, so it’s better to handle it privately.

"A bit afraid... but Young Master Dou is a good person. They deserve it, as long as Young Master Dou is safe in the future." Liu Eryu said.

Young Master Dou was suddenly moved, looking at Liu Eryu... Damn, a bit touched. She just doesn’t look good, and he doesn’t want to turn a good register girl into a slave. Otherwise, he might really want to keep Liu Eryu by his side.

"Did you bring the person?" Young Master Dou, sure that Liu Eryu wouldn’t jump into the well, stopped pulling her and called towards the courtyard gate.

"Brought him." Two Shadow Guards suddenly appeared, dragging Xu Gaodi.

Xu Gaodi had met Young Master Dou before. Young Master Dou had given a silver tael to Xu Gaodi’s old mother, buying the basket she wove.

"Young Master Dou, are you looking for me?" Xu Gaodi asked.

Young Master Dou nodded and beckoned him over: "Come here."

"Hey." Xu Gaodi walked over, each step like he was stepping into a pit, half his body sinking as if being dragged down. When his other normal foot stepped forward, the sunken side was pulled up.

In short, anyone could tell he was uneven-footed.

Young Master Dou pointed at Xu Gaodi and said, "He’s called Xu Lu, related to the Xu Family in the county, with an old mother who has a decent temper and isn’t the kind of old devout woman who torments people. He’s thirty and hasn’t married yet because his family is poor, has no brothers to support him, and his legs have issues. But he looks good and suits you. If you’re willing, I’ll matchmake for you and buy you a house in the county with two hundred taels of silver, so you can live well together in the future." 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

He then said to Xu Gaodi, "You said that as long as you can marry a wife and continue your family line, you don’t care about looks. Now, I’m finding you a wife. Are you willing?"

Then, he explained Liu Eryu’s family situation to Xu Gaodi.
