The Family of Time Travel Has an Ugly Wife

Ming Yue was Song Zhao’s wife.

Song Zhao was the one engaged to Wan Qiu, but he broke the engagement and married someone else.

The original Shan Yu was the main culprit behind the mess, because he peeked on Wan Qiu while the shuanger was taking a bath, causing Song Zhao to cancel the engagement.

Wan Qiu was just some poor soul, unfortunate shuanger manipulated by fate.

The four of them had such complex relationships that it was better if they didn’t interact with each other. Otherwise, no matter who appeared in front of whom, there would be a violent conflict.

Ever since the last time Song Zhao sent fish to Wan Qiu, Ming Yue made a big fuss, and the couple was beaten by Shan Yu, then Song Zhao never cared for Wan Qiu anymore. Now Ming Yue suddenly caused trouble, Shan Yu thought he had no reason to tolerate it.

He took the water from Wan Qiu’s hand and rinsed his mouth. He didn’t argue or refute; he just asked Ming Yue, “Why are you talking badly about me in front of the whole village?”

In fact, what Ming Yue said was not a lie. It also contained half-truth. Everyone started to speak up one after another.

“Song Zhao’s wife is right. Aren’t you like this because of Grandpa Yaba? Don’t you have the courage to admit?”

“Yes…”

“Yes…”

Everyone talked as if Shan Yu had done something sinister, and it seemed like they would drown him with their words. They already forgot about the poisonous fish incident. That night, it was Shan Yu who taught them how to induce vomiting for their husbands, and it was Shan Yu who brought Grandpa Yaba out of the Deadly Forest.

Not to mention the remedy was prescribed by Shan Yu. Even if it wasn’t known, without Shanyu, Grandpa Yaba would have died long ago. How could those harmed by the poisonous fish have survived?

Shan Yu didn’t want to engage with a group of women and shuangers, but if he was silent today, he didn’t know what mess he would be in the future, so he said:

“Didn’t I teach you how to induce vomiting, and I also save Grandpa Yaba from the Deadly Forest. You would have become widows without me, and yet you still have time to gossip about me? You say that I lived a good life taking advantage of Grandpa Yaba, but what about Grandpa Yaba? Why is there no one to save him in the Deadly Forest? Speaking of which, he is the only doctor in this village, and he always helps you all, right? When he is not in trouble, you all call him ‘grandpa,’ but when something happens, no one even trying to search for him.”

Before Shan Yu traveled through time, he always successful at the negotiation table. He might not be good at arguing and swearing, but he was logical and reasonable. At this moment, he was arguing without even using a curse word, making everyone in the group blush and walk away.

Wan Qiu and Grandpa Yaba were both shocked. They had seen the fight between women in the village before, but they didn’t expect Shan Yu would win the argument and still mutter, “Am I really in the way of their good lives? Why would they scold me for no reason.”

.

This winter, Wan Qiu was destined not to be cold, nor would be hungry, but he felt a little tortured.

“Qiu Ge’er, how are you and Shanzi doing lately?” Grandma Wang secretly said to Wan Qiu. “My man went to town today and saw Shanzi entering a brothel…”

Wan Qiu’s heart skipped a beat, and he saw Grandma Wang off. A shuanger leaned against the bedrail in a daze, feeling as though his heart had been stabbed.

Reflecting on life, it was much better than before. He had enough food and clothing every day, and he didn’t have to work. Looking back on last year, he was washing people’s clothes by the river. Even when his hands were frozen, he didn’t feel much pain.

At that time, Wan Qiu’s only wish was that Shan Yu wouldn’t beat and scold him. He even thought it would be good for Shan Yu to visit the brothel, as it would allow him to sleep soundly at home.

But now…

Shan Yu was very good to Wan Qiu. At least compared to before, Wan Qiu finally knew what it felt like to rely on a man.

Maybe his expectations for Shan Yu were getting bigger and bigger, or maybe Shan Yu was too kind to him, so he couldn’t help but feel disappointed when Shan Yu still preferred the people in brothel.

Wan Qiu felt that the current days were even more difficult than the days when he suffered from hunger before. Originally, it was just physical pain, but now it was mental pain.

Physical suffering could be improved through food, clothing, rest and treatment, but if the mind was suffering, how could it be sweetened?

Wan Qiu hid in the bed and secretly wiped away his tears. He remembered Shan Yu’s words that excessive emotional fluctuations would harm the child. He quickly lowered his head to look at his belly, bit his lip, and murmured, “Child, what do you think I should do?”

.

Shan Yu had been thinking of ways to rescue Lian Zhou since the last time he said goodbye to him in the brothel. Based on Lian Zhou’s appearance, the madam would definitely regard him as a cash cow and would not let him go easily, even if there was room for negotiation. The price would be sky-high.

Shan Yu’s small wealth was simply not enough to make such a deal, so he could only use his creativity elsewhere.

There were many strange flowers and plants in the Deadly Forest. Shan Yu wandered up the mountain every day and finally found one that worked.

Hempgrass, a spherical hairy plant, would produce allergic symptoms after contact with human skin. The most obvious reaction was high fever, followed by redness, swelling, pain, and itching of the skin. In severe cases, it could also cause disfigurement and death.

Shan Yu secretly gave the hempgrass to Lian Zhou, and then on a dark and windy night a few days later, he carried Lian Zhou home from the mass grave.

Lian Zhou suffered from allergies for dozens of days. When he was picked up by Shan Yu, his whole body was covered in ulcers, and he was lying on a straw mat, dying.

It was clear that he was ruthless to himself to succeed in this escape plan.

Wan Qiu didn’t dare look at Lian Zhou’s face, which was full of pus and smelled awful. He could only vaguely guess from Lian Zhou’s slender figure and his black hair like a waterfall that he was originally a beauty.

After Shan Yu brought Lian Zhou home, he no longer went out easily. Except for going up the mountain to collect herbs, he took care of Lian Zhou almost exclusively. He did everything with his own hands and didn’t even return to his room with Wan Qiu.

Wan Qiu stayed alone in his empty room every day and felt sad every time he saw Shan Yu’s concern for Lian Zhou.

There was a rumor in the village that Shan Yu had picked up a shuanger who was even uglier than Wan Qiu, but Wan Qiu knew that Lian Zhou was not ugly at all.

Under Shan Yu’s care, the ulcers on his body completely healed, and his face gradually revealed his true appearance, which was definitely more beautiful than anyone Wan Qiu had seen.

Given time, Lian Zhou would surely amaze everyone, but he…

Wan Qiu touched the ugly birthmark on his forehead, feeling as if he was stuffed and couldn’t breathe. He put the bronze mirror in his hand into the drawer and covered it with a cloth, picked up the soup at hand, and walked to the neighboring room.

When Wan Qiu entered the house, Shan Yu was applying medicine to the person on the bed.

Lian Zhou was half-lying on his stomach, with only a piece of cloth covering his waist. Without thinking, Wan Qiu knew that the shuanger’s body was already exposed to Shan Yu.

Although Wan Qiu had already guessed something, seeing his husband’s hand sliding inch by inch over another shuanger’s body with his own eyes, it was more uncomfortable than he could handle.

He stood blankly at the door, holding on to the door frame and retching uncontrollably. He felt that it was time to wake up from those sweet dreams related to happiness, and he also knew that it was time to take back those expectations for his husband.

Note

Like they always say, it will be sweet after the bitterness. Just a little trip of angst. We will get there everyone^^

Shanzi = boy Shan, a nickname for Shan Yu
