Chapter 1, Guo Prodigal and Pretty Widow

AD 183, Yingchuan.

Winter is coming quietly, and at night, the entire ancient city is shrouded in white snow. Looking around, it seems as if everything in the world is frozen.

There were only a few people walking on the street, and the lights of hundreds of houses were gradually extinguished. But at this moment, a young man wearing mink fur knocked on the door of Doufu Xishi's small courtyard.

"It's freezing cold. Madam, can you give me a cup of hot water?"

"I don't have water here..."

"I can start a fire on my own."

"You should leave quickly."

"If Madam doesn't open the door, Jia will freeze to death outside this door."

There was silence in the courtyard for a moment, then a long sigh came out, and the door was slowly opened.

"You enemy, there has been a lot of talk about you and me on the street recently, but you still dare to come here!"

What came into view was a delicate face, sad eyes, a small nose, and skin that could be broken by blows, and turned reddish because of the ice and snow.

A rough dress outlines her proud curves and cannot hide her charming charm.

This woman is the famous Tofu Xishi in this "Qingping Street", known as "Su Mei Niang".

She is indeed worthy of this name. Not only does she have a beautiful face that is one of a kind, but she is also known as having a perfect figure that is good for fertility. Her exquisite and graceful body is often coveted.

However, as fate would have it, her husband, a hunter, was accidentally snatched away by a tiger when he went hunting in the mountains three years ago. From then on, Su Meiniang became a famous and beautiful widow far and wide, with numerous suitors interested in marrying her.

However, Su Meiniang still remembered her late husband and was unwilling to remarry.

If it hadn't been for a brother who worked in the government, I'm afraid this pretty widow's life would not have been peaceful.

Su Meiniang looked at the young man in front of her with a complex expression, and she couldn't help but think of the words in her heart: I was not born before you were born, but I am already old after you were born.

This saying was taught to her by a young man. The original saying is: You gave birth to me before you gave birth to me, but I gave birth to you before you were married.

The young man grinned.

"I ran out of firewood and was too cold to sleep, so I ran to Madam's place to light a fire to keep warm."

Su Meiniang sighed. Based on her understanding of the young man, she always felt that his purpose was more than that.

But now that the person has arrived and he has opened the door, he cannot really let him freeze outside.

"come in."

...The two of them entered the room one after another, and the young man even closed the door bolt.

"Hmm~"

As soon as he entered the door, the young man hugged the pretty widow Yingying from behind and held her waist.

"You agreed to just drink a cup of hot water and light a fire to keep warm."

"My lady is warmer than any stove."

"Fengxiao, you can't continue to mess around."

Su Meiniang broke away from the young man's arms with a complicated expression on her face.

"You have a great future, don't let your good reputation be ruined by becoming a concubine."

Guo Jia, whose courtesy name was Fengxiao, was a famous ghost genius in Yingchuan. He was also a student of Yingchuan Academy. He was highly valued by Dean Sima Hui and had a close friendship with Xun Yu and other children of aristocratic families.

In addition, he has another layer of identity, which is a modern soul traveling through time and space from later generations.

Guo Jia looked into the beautiful widow's moving eyes and said with a smile: "So this is the reason why Madam is worried."

Su Meiniang said quietly: "I cannot destroy you."

"Mrs., must you have forgotten that Guo Jia's reputation as a libertine has long been known to everyone in Yingchuan?"

"But it's better than being stuck with a widow."

"When did I, Guo Jia, care about worldly opinions?"

After Guo Jia finished speaking, he couldn't help but stepped forward and picked up the pretty widow.

"Fengxiao, don't make trouble~"

The pretty widow wanted to break free, but she couldn't hold back the boy. This thin body actually contained a lot of power, and only a weak woman like her could shake it.

Besides, she is also a little greedy for this body.

Ice and snow are ruthless, but people are affectionate. She has been a widow for three years.

"You bad boy, you just promised to drink some hot water."

Su Meiniang brought a pot of hot tea from the kitchen, filled the tea cup, and then glanced angrily at the young man lying lazily on the bed.

If you look carefully, you will find that there is still some lingering charm between her eyebrows.

Guo Jia was still recalling the charm of the pretty widow, and couldn't help but grin when he heard this.

She glared at the bad boy fiercely: "I must have provoked an enemy like you in my previous life... Why don't you get up and drink tea soon."

"Thank you, Madam."

Of course Guo Jia obeyed and acted as he was told. After taking a sip of hot tea, he immediately felt very relaxed.

Su Meiniang stared at the young man's thin but handsome cheeks, and couldn't help recalling every detail of the two's encounter in her mind.

A month ago, this man passed out drunk outside her door, and she took good care of him for a while.

I thought it was just an accidental encounter, but who knew that this young man would become obsessed with her from then on, coming to her door day after day to inquire about her welfare, and doing vulgar things for her regardless of his status.

The so-called virtuous girl is afraid of pestering her husband. As time goes by, she will also fall in love with each other.

Su Meiniang suddenly thought of the young man's future, and a sad look appeared on her face again.

"Fengxiao, this is really the last time. You can't do it again after today."

"What are you worried about, ma'am?"

Guo Jia put down the tea cup and said softly: "Did someone say something to you?"

He really couldn't understand that the good sister who promised to take care of him for the rest of his life just a few days ago was now breaking off with him.

Su Meiniang sighed and said slowly: "I have heard from my brother that you are among the best in the academy and are highly appreciated by the dean. You can be "filial and honest" after finishing your studies."

Guo Jia suddenly realized that it was the pretty widow's brother who was acting as a monster.

No, that guy "Su Zhe" is very honest and would never think of such a thing.

Who is secretly doing bad things to him?

"Sure enough, I was right about the person. Madam really cared about her man and gave her all. But because of this, I can't let Madam down."

"If Feng Xiao insists on doing this, I will have no choice but to leave Yingchuan."

Although Su Meiniang said this, she had no confidence in her heart.

She had stayed in Yingchuan for more than twenty years and knew nothing about the outside world, not to mention where could she, a weak woman, go?

Guo Jia said seriously: "Madam, you are wrong."

wrong?

Su Meiniang was puzzled.

Guo Jia solemnly said: "Not to mention whether the affairs between you and me will affect the promotion of filial piety and integrity, even if it does, it doesn't matter, because times have changed."

"Why?"

"I can only tell you that China is about to be in turmoil, and the Han Dynasty will be in chaos from now on. From today on, being an official does not necessarily require filial piety and integrity."

Su Meiniang didn't understand it at all. After all, she was just a woman and had never read any books.

She wanted to ask more, but she heard the young man say: "Madam, I'm thirsty again."

The pretty widow's face turned red again. Her skin had always been so sensitive, not just her face. This was also the reason why the young man was so happy to miss his childhood.

"Fengxiao, you are still young, so you must exercise restraint..."

"But I'm very angry now."

"well……"

The long night of silence is better than the sound...

"Brother, why do we have to come here so early in the morning to get cold?"

"I heard that Guo Fengxiao had a dispute with the widow, so he might appear here."
