”Even if I’m not angry, your words would make me angry.” Yu Shu rolled his eyes.

　　”If you’re angry, should I kiss Yuanyuan some more?” Yan Jin chuckled. “As long as I kiss you enough, Yuanyuan will stop being mad.”

　　Yu Shu said primly, “I’m not a three-year-old child who needs an adult’s kisses to coax me when I’m angry.”

　　”But in my heart, Yuanyuan is a cute little child.” Yan Jin tidied Yu Shu’s messy bed hair. “An adorable baby who needs to be hugged and coaxed when angry.”

　　”You just keep feeding me nonsense.” Yu Shu laughed and after bending over to put on his shoes, he turned to urge Yan Jin. “Didn’t you say the carriage is coming soon? Hurry up.”

　　”When I urged you to get up earlier, you wouldn’t. Now you’re the one urging me.” Yan Jin smiled as she spoke, then shook her head and followed.

　　Although the selection competition for unmarried men to play the Guanyin role in the prefecture city couldn’t compare to the liveliness of the Lantern Festival, Yan Jin and the others saw quite a few fashionably dressed young men on their way from Yongning County to the inn in the prefecture city.

　　Yan Jin had no interest in other men, but her appearance and temperament aligned with the mainstream aesthetics in An Country.

　　So along the way, every unmarried man would involuntarily look at Yan Jin.

　　Before their gazes could turn admiring and boldly step forward to get to know this extraordinary lady…

　　They would see a man standing beside her, his actions intimate with the lady, and looking at his face, the courage that had just welled up in those men’s hearts would vanish into thin air.

　　Even if they really wanted to get to know that lady, how could the light of a firefly compete with the sun and moon?

　　That gentleman was so handsome that standing beside him, the affection between him and that lady was so sweet that no outsider could squeeze in.

　　If they stood next to him, they would only appear lackluster in comparison.

　　Most of the men discreetly shifted their gazes, but there were still some bold ones who stepped forward to chat with Yan Jin.

　　”This lady, I wonder if I might have the honor of knowing your name?”

　　”Good day, lady. Do you have a husband? If not, what do you think of me?”

　　…

　　Such swarms of flirtatious men had been surging toward Yan Jin nonstop since they left Yongning County.

　　This kind of rotten peach blossom luck, the first kind of situation was still easy to deal with, but the latter kind, Yan Jin couldn’t even have Yu Shu help fend off, and could only steel herself to face it.

　　Because a certain someone’s jar of vinegar had already been overturned, and he was forcibly suppressing his anger. If Yan Jin asked him to help block the rotten peach blossom luck at this time, he would definitely be fuming with rage.

　　[Tsk tsk, by my count, this is the eighth young man to hit on Yan Jin.]

　　[I originally thought that the men in An Country were similar to women in ancient times – shy, bashful, and reserved. I didn’t expect them to be quite bold, actually daring to chat up strange women.]

　　[It’s because Yan Jin is good-looking. If I were a man, I’d chat her up too.]

　　…

　　[But to be honest, the few young men who hit on Yan Jin aren’t bad-looking either, though they can’t compare to Yu Shu. But each one is tall, has long legs, and a face full of collagen.]

　　[The men in An Country are so much more handsome than the men in our country. I’m drooling with envy.]

　　[The foundation should be about the same, but the men in An Country pay more attention to image management. There are no ugly men, only lazy men. With a bit of sprucing up, aren’t there naturally more handsome men?]

　　Two flowers bloom, each displaying a branch.

　　Yan Jin and Yu Shu arrived at the inn. The shop attendant had just led them into the room when, after resting for a bit, they were preparing to go downstairs to eat.

　　Who knew that as soon as they opened the door, they would run into a refined young man confessing his love to Yan Jin.

　　Faced with the surging peach blossoms, Yan Jin hurriedly pulled Yu Shu over. “This is my husband.”

　　Originally, Yan Jin thought that by saying this, relying on Yuanyuan’s good looks, she should be able to send this suitor away.

　　Who knew that the man’s eyes would shift and he would say with a smile, “The lady is so beautiful. If I could spend my days with her, even as a concubine, I would be willing.”

　　[Shocking my whole family, even the strongest homewrecker on earth isn’t as strong as him. Men really do have thick skin.]

　　[Damn it, he’s already said it so bluntly. Yan Jin, hurry up and accept him.]

　　[Accept what… The two of them are a perfect match, affectionate beyond compare. They have no need for that demon to wedge his foot in!]

　　This was the first time in Yan Jin’s life that she had seen a suitor be so bold. For a moment, she was a bit stunned.

　　Beside her, although Yu Shu didn’t think Xiaoxiao was seriously considering it, the fact that Xiaoxiao didn’t immediately refuse hurt his heart a little.

　　More importantly, Yu Shu gave the man a once-over. Even though he wasn’t as good-looking as him, that man had the same type of appearance as him.

　　Yu Shu wasn’t afraid that Xiaoxiao would fall for the other man. He was afraid that Xiaoxiao would “love the house and its crow” and, seeing that face similar to his type, would be unable to say harsh words.

　　At that, Yu Shu tightly hugged Yan Jin’s waist. “You don’t truly like my wife-master. You only covet her beauty.”

　　The man chuckled. “I’m not talking to you, sir. Why do you have to butt in?”

　　Yu Shu sneered. “But you’re ugly, an eyesore to me and my wife-master.”

　　The man’s face instantly changed.

　　Men in An Country valued appearances. Yu Shu’s words were a great humiliation to him.

　　Yu Shu also knew the other party cared about this point, so he continued, “If your family doesn’t have a mirror, I can give you a few copper coins to buy one to take home and look at yourself. With that face of yours, you have the nerve to want to be my wife-master’s concubine?”

　　…

　　Yu Shu said a few more sarcastic words. Even without using a single dirty word, he still made the other person’s face turn green.

　　Even Yan Jin beside them couldn’t help but glance at Yu Shu.

　　Who would have thought? When Yuanyuan got angry, he was actually so good at scolding people.

　　The man’s face alternated between green and white for a good while, like an overturned spice jar. After a long time, the man finally snorted coldly. “As a husband, you interrupted before your wife-master could speak. Isn’t that a bit lacking in male virtue?”

　　”My wife-master is happy to dote on me like this. If you don’t believe me, ask her.”

　　After Yu Shu finished speaking, he glanced at Yan Jin, signaling her to speak.

　　Originally, seeing Yu Shu take the stage, Yan Jin thought she wouldn’t have to make an appearance. The little person in her heart silently picked up a melon.

　　Now, receiving Yu Shu’s look, the little person in Yan Jin’s heart regretfully put down the half-eaten melon in her hand.

　　Yuanyuan handled it so well. Why make her go on stage?

　　Yan Jin: “He is my husband. No matter what his personality is like, I like him.”
