The Three Kingdoms: Home Travel

(It's time to bed again... Going to bed early and waking up early isn't really good for your health...)

Jiang Zhe dismissed Chen Deng, and now there was no one around.

Looking at Xiuer, Jiang Zhe felt a little itchy. He hugged Xiuer and said with a hint of reproach, "Xiuer, from now on, let's not keep Yuanlong for dinner at night. Just the two of us... hehe..."

Xiuer struggled slightly for a few moments, but ultimately leaned against Jiang Zhe's chest, rolled her eyes at him, and said, "At least people call you 'teacher,' but you..."

"So what!" Jiang Zhe said defiantly. "That guy bothered me after get off work, and I haven't even asked him for overtime pay yet!"

"What nonsense are you spouting now!" Xiu'er snorted lightly, then hesitated before saying, "Like a few days ago, I just feel..."

What was the situation a few days ago?

It turned out that Jiang Zhe found that there was a lack of entertainment in ancient times, and he was very bored at night. So that day, he invited Xiu'er to drink with him.

In his mind, what kind of power could those low-concentration wines of ancient times have? Unexpectedly, Xiuer, whom he had dragged along, actually got drunk?

Jiang Zhe was stunned. Xiu'er opened her beautiful eyes slightly and parted her red lips, as if she had become a different person. She was indescribably charming. After teasing Jiang Zhe for a while, she went to the inner room and took out two feather fans. She then danced in front of Jiang Zhe.

Jiang Zhe was stunned. The drunk Xiu'er was different from her usual dignified and virtuous self. She was very charming and teased Jiang Zhe.

Jiang Zhe had been somewhat skeptical back in his previous life, wondering what was so interesting about those ancient spinning dances. Now he understood: watching them on television didn't evoke any feeling whatsoever. But if you experienced it like he did that day… hehe…

That evening, Jiang Zhe deliberately restrained himself from sleeping with Xiu'er as well. After all, they had agreed on a wedding date, and a man should keep his word! But…

The next day, Jiang Zhe got up and somewhat awkwardly sent Xiu'er away. He changed his underwear (that's all I can say), and then... washed the clothes he had taken off...

"Is it good or not?" Jiang Zhe said, shaking Xiu'er's hand.

"Alright, alright!" Xiu'er was truly exasperated. After getting drunk that time, she didn't know what had happened to her. It wasn't until she woke up the next day and recalled the previous night that her face turned bright red. She couldn't understand how she could have acted that way... Luckily, her husband was a gentleman, otherwise... she would definitely have some small regrets on their wedding night...

"Then it's a deal!"

"Yes..." Xiu'er drawled helplessly. Her husband was sometimes like a child, but... the time he commanded the soldiers of Xuzhou to resist the Yellow Turbans really excited her...

He was merely a scholar who knew no martial arts, yet he risked his life to fight the enemy to protect himself (this is Xiu'er's inner thought, and "I" am referring to Xiu'er) and the people of Xuzhou. How dangerous was that? Thinking of this, Xiu'er felt a surge of warmth in her heart, deeply moved. To have met such a husband, Xiu'er was content for the rest of her life...

"Husband..." Xiu'er teased Jiang Zhe deliberately, "but there's no wine at home..."

"Huh?" Jiang Zhe panicked upon hearing this. No more wine? That meant he wouldn't be able to watch Xiu'er's dance that night! How was he going to endure such a long evening? He immediately said, "I... I'll go buy some! And I'll buy some groceries too..."

Unexpectedly, Xiuer was stunned upon hearing this. Did she hear correctly?

"Husband...you said you're going to the market...to buy groceries?" Xiu'er asked, frowning.

"Is something wrong?" Jiang Zhe asked curiously.

"...No, no...it's just...it's just that this is something we women do, you..."

"It's nothing!" Jiang Zhe thought it was something serious and said with a smile, "That's all. I'll go out and buy some things, and you can cook for me later, okay? Your cooking is really delicious!"

Xiuer opened her mouth, watching Jiang Zhe get up and leave. She shook her head with a wry smile, "So be it! My husband has been different from ordinary people from the very first glance..."

Jiang Zhe weighed the money in his hand, wondering what to buy to take back. It was all the Yellow Turbans' fault; they'd caused prices in Xuzhou to skyrocket. He could have bought so much with that money, but now it was just for a meal! Damn it! Didn't they know his monthly salary was only eleven strings of cash?! He had a family to support! Please, please, Zhang Niujiao, hurry up and take your defeated troops back! I'll release Zhang Yan later if necessary!

Hmm? Speaking of Zhang Yan, I wonder how he's doing in the prison in Xuzhou. I told the guards to be careful, he should be alright. Hmm, I'll go check on him tomorrow. After all, Zhang Yan was a famous Yellow Turban leader in history, it would be a shame to miss him...

Hmm? As Jiang Zhe pondered, he spotted someone standing by the roadside in the distance. Wasn't that...?

"That wild girl really waits for me every day? No?" Jiang Zhe thought to himself, secretly groaning. "What deep-seated hatred do we have? Is it really necessary for you to go to such lengths?"

Or... should I apologize to her and let it go? Jiang Zhe felt a pang of pity seeing that small figure standing there in the cold wind.

"Oh...it's you." Mi Zhen glanced at the person who walked up to her and said nonchalantly.

Jiang Zhe didn't say anything, he just looked at her.

"Why don't you say it... Ah! You're the villain!" Mi Zhen shouted, her eyes wide.

"..." Jiang Zhe's eye twitched, and he said helplessly, "Girl, what exactly do you want?"

"You have to apologize to me!" Mi Zhen said angrily.

"Very well, very well!" Jiang Zhe bowed deeply. "I'm sorry, Miss Mi, I apologize!" Then he looked at Mi Zhen and said, "Is that all? Then I'll be going..."

Mi Zhen stared blankly as Jiang Zhe finished apologizing, a sudden emptiness washing over her, as if something important had vanished, leaving her somewhat at a loss.

I waited so long just to hear him apologize, didn't I? Why wasn't I happy after he apologized? Instead, I felt a little disappointed...

Mi Zhen looked at Jiang Zhe with complicated emotions, biting her lip and murmuring, "Did I wait so many days just to hear this one sentence from him?"

"What's wrong with you?" Jiang Zhe asked, secretly wondering if this girl had something wrong with her head.

"No!" Mi Zhen shouted, startling Jiang Zhe.

"You don't know what?"

"I..." Mi Zhen didn't know what she was saying. After a moment of hesitation, she said, "You wicked person, I've waited for you for so long, I can't let you go like this!"

"..." Jiang Zhe was dumbfounded. He should have left earlier. He really wanted to slap himself!

"Then what else do you want to do?" Jiang Zhe asked speechlessly.

What for? Mi Zhen was stunned for a moment. Right, then what did she want him to do?

"Take your time thinking, I'm in a hurry to buy things..." Jiang Zhe quickly left.

Mi Zhen looked up and saw that the villain had run far away. She was so angry that she stomped her feet, bit her lip, and actually chased after him. Yes! She couldn't let that villain get away so easily! Mi Zhen thought to herself.

Not long after, Jiang Zhe returned carrying a wine bag in one hand and vegetables and meat in the other. Passersby looked at him with disdain when they saw a man going to the market to buy vegetables (they only knew Jiang Zhe's name, but did not know what he looked like).

Jiang Zhe didn't care. First, he was naturally a bit carefree, and second, well, you can look at it, I'll just go my own way!

Humming a popular song from later generations, Jiang Zhe walked to a corner and suddenly his eyes widened.

"Hmph!" Mi Zhen stood there and sneered. "Let's see where you run!" Then, she stared blankly at the things in Jiang Zhe's hands, pointing at them and saying, "You...you went out...to buy...something?"

She simply couldn't bring herself to say the words "buying groceries." In this era, a man who went to the market to buy groceries would be looked down upon.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Zhe looked at the thing in his hand curiously.

"You...don't you have a wife?"

"Oh!" Jiang Zhe smiled and said, "Xiu'er originally wanted to come out, but I saw it was too windy today, so I'll just go out and buy it myself. It'll be quick anyway..."

"..." Mi Zhen stared blankly at the thing in Jiang Zhe's hand, and for some reason, she felt a little envious of this villain's wife. She bit her lip and said softly, "Could you take me to your house? Um... consider it your apology to me..."

"Well..." Jiang Zhe originally wanted to say that wouldn't do, but seeing the girl's absent-minded look, he inexplicably blurted out, "Why not..." Then he secretly slapped himself for being so talkative!

Mi Zhen smiled slightly, raised her head and looked at Jiang Zhe as if it were the first time she had seen him.

"This...this way..." Jiang Zhe inwardly groaned, wondering how he would explain this to Xiu'er later. In any case, the evening's plans were ruined...

Ugh……
