Chapter 6, The Royal Family's Unsavory Friends

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Wang Zhuang grinned and said: "Widow Yang's husband died two years ago, and she has shown no intention of remarrying. A few days ago, someone from the government came and urged her to remarry. The officials promised to find her a strong man, ensuring that she would bear three healthy, chubby babies. As long as she can give birth, the government will reward her with two guan of money. Widow Yang agreed..."

Li Su was taken aback for a moment, her smile somewhat stiff: "What do you mean by bringing me to a widow's house?"

Wang Zhuang and Wang Zhi are sixteen and fourteen years old respectively, and their ages are roughly similar to that of Li Su. The three of them have been friends since childhood, and their relationship is very close

Wang Zhuang, furious at his lack of ambition, tightly wrapped his strong arms around Li Su's neck and dragged him towards the backyard of the house, saying as they walked: "You cowardly fool, you won't be able to see beautiful things in the future, so why not seize the opportunity now!"

Li Su, you have changed! Wang Zhuang stared at him, his gaze filled with reproach

The two brothers, Wang Zhuang and Wang Zhi, greeted Li Su with great warmth, showing none of the politeness typical of ordinary encounters where one bows and the other reciprocates. Their affection was of a more physical nature, characterized by playful punches and kicks, as if their bond could only be demonstrated by nearly beating each other to death.

It is excellent that Li Shimin has not yet had the chance to lead the elders and fellow villagers of the Tang Dynasty astray

"There are beautiful things, and soon they will be gone." Wang Zhuang smiled mysteriously, his chubby cheeks contorted even more grotesquely by the smile.

... ...

After washing for a while, Li Su finally felt a bit more at ease and slowly walked over

What have I become

Ignoring the disdain for these two ignorant fools lacking any physiological knowledge, Li Su squatted by the riverbank, washing her eyes with resentment

Li Su was completely baffled and raised an eyebrow: "So?"

"What are you doing?" Li Su struggled reluctantly

A dilapidated wooden house with broken doors, constructed from cedar wood, has a hasty layer of tung oil applied to the entrance and the inner hall. In several areas, the tung oil has worn through, making it appear even more run-down. The sunlight lazily filters through the window frames, casting its rays onto the floor of the quiet room, resembling a tattered painting, marred in every corner.

Li Su was escorted by the Wang brothers to the back yard outside the kitchen. The three of them crouched down and quietly approached the back door, leaning close to the crack of the door. Their three pairs of eyes suddenly widened, and then they all simultaneously gasped in shock

In the distance, an old man wearing a cloth cap and shoes approached with a stagger. Upon seeing Li Su and the others, the old man quickened his pace and walked up to the three of them. Without saying a word, he raised his hand and struck Wang Zhuang hard on the back of the head.

They have done many good deeds and also many bad ones. Three idle youths live in a dull and boring little village. Today, the people they see at https://mhetushucom.com are no different from those they saw yesterday and the day before. Even a wandering peddler passing through the village can excite them for half a day. In such tranquil days, with such restless youths, what else can they do besides doing good and bad deeds

The two brothers hesitated, exchanging glances filled with deep regret, as if they were witnessing a once brilliant pearl now covered in dust, discarded like a worn-out shoe

I indeed forgot..." Li Su smiled wryly

Within the crack of the door lies the body of a woman, pale and glistening, captivating to the eye. In her hand, she holds a gourd ladle, pouring hot water over herself, one ladle at a time, and after finishing, she rubs her body, producing a creaking sound.

Wang Zhuang nodded repeatedly: "No wonder the officials have sent people several times to persuade her to remarry, with such a large backside, she can bear children easily, she could have a baby in just six months..."

Oh dear, it's very beautiful...

As for these two individuals before me

Li Suchang let out a long breath

The two brothers nodded in unison, and Wang Zhuang looked at him with disdain: "Such a beautiful woman, all ruined by you, you fool"

A woman's terrified voice came from inside: "Who?"

If everyone in the village thinks she is beautiful, how could Widow Yang remain unmarried for two years? Wang Zhuang sighed in regret.

Li Su : `` ... ... ''

The population at the western end of the village is relatively sparse, as that area consists of barren mountains and slopes overgrown with weeds. Additionally, it is a shaded area, which leads to a proliferation of mosquitoes in the summer and biting cold north winds in the winter. Consequently, there are hardly any residents willing to live there.

What exactly is something beautiful

The Wang brothers sat cross-legged on the stones by the Jing River, exchanging lewd smiles as they gazed at each other, their eyes sparkling with excitement. It was evident that the scene they had just witnessed was very much to their liking. The only regret was that a certain fellow with the surname Li had interrupted their peeping.

Living a life that is simple and unremarkable can actually be quite good; I have made my decision to live this way

Coward, don't make a sound!

Unable to restrain myself, I cupped my hands towards the direction of Chang'an City and sincerely shouted: "Long live our Emperor, long live our Emperor, long live our Emperor for ten thousand years..."

... ...

I truly want to look up to the sky and spit out a mouthful of old blood

"Which woman do you think is beautiful?" Li Su glared at them.

"Where is this?" Li Su could not help but ask.

In the past, you were most fond of Widow Yang; every time you saw her, you would blush. Six months ago, we secretly watched Widow Yang take a bath, and it was you who led the way

Li Su looked at Wang Zhuang's ugly face with a sense of entanglement, unable to bear it any longer, she turned her head away, not wanting to see him again. However, as soon as she turned her head, she was met with Wang Zhi's even uglier face

The two brothers, one on the left and the other on the right, supported Li Su's arms and unceremoniously lifted him out.

In the future, when marrying, one must choose a slender wife. If my father dares to suggest marrying a woman who weighs more than 100 jin, I will resort to extreme measures, and none of us will have a good time.

Three people sat idly by the river for a while. Li Su gazed at the setting sun in the west, its afterglow casting golden halos on the river's surface. Wisps of smoke rose from the village, accompanied by the sounds of barking dogs and crowing roosters, along with the occasional long moo of an old cow. A cool breeze swept through their hair, carrying a sharp chill yet infused with a strong sense of vitality.

The entire village, young and old, thinks that woman is beautiful

Brother, that woman's backside is truly large, both big and white, very beautiful..." Wang Zhi excitedly gestured the shape of the backside

"My eyes... ah! They are blind, blind!" Li Su could not care less about exposing the three of them, and could not help but shout, abandoning the Wang brothers and rushing out alone.

The obsession with cleanliness has struck again; I can only feel that my eyes have just seen a large piece of greasy lard, making me feel uncomfortable all over.

Wang Zhuang cast an angry glance at Li Su as she walked away, then, still feeling unsatisfied, he took a hard look at the widow's perfect figure, sighed in regret, and pulled his younger brother to run away as well

Li Su was gazing at the shimmering surface of the river, a subtle arc forming at the corner of her mouth

You coward, your younger brother is at home burning up with fever, how can you have the nerve to be out playing!

Li Su still hopes that they can be a bit more polite, after all, everyone is really not very familiar with each other

I am very angry and have a strong desire to kill an entire family, especially the family with the surname Wang

However, the words of the Wang brothers piqued Li Su's curiosity; he was very eager to know what they referred to as "something beautiful." Thus, he cooperatively allowed them to hold his arms, proceeding side by side as if being led to the execution ground.

The composition, lighting, and ambiance... are simply a perfect depiction of a Tang dynasty woman bathing. If the waist of the female protagonist in the painting were not as thick as that of a water buffalo, if the excess flesh on her arms did not hang down limply, if her broad back were not as towering as a mountain, and if her hips were not as large as a super-sized grinding disc... then this scene would truly be perfect

Li Su suddenly felt a sourness rising in his stomach; he truly felt like vomiting

The Wang brothers stared at him in astonishment: "This place was brought to us by you, have you forgotten?"

There is a very serious matter that must be clarified immediately. If the aesthetic views of the Tang Dynasty people are highly consistent with those of these two individuals, Li Su decides to simply wield a knife and cut off to serve Li Shimin in the palace

This is Widow Yang's home; you brought us here six months ago

Li Su had no choice but to close her eyes, feeling despair towards this ugly world

What kind of taste did the previous owner of the body have
