In May of 884 AD, on the official road fifty li southwest of Bianzhou (modern-day Kaifeng)Yet Ye Youxiao hadn't caught up with Li Jiuniang, when that Fourth Sister suddenly turned back, reaching out a hand to block his path, staring at him coldly.

Li Jiuniang heard the sound and stopped in her tracks, looking at Ye Youxiao with a half-smile.

Both women were looking at him, Ye Youxiao couldn't help but lower his head and blush.

Li Jiuniang smiled lightly: “Oh, at such a young age, you've already become a vagrant”

Ye Youxiao panicked: "No, I'm not..."

Li Jiuniang's smile widened: "You followed me from the amateur troupe to here, aren't you particularly admiring of me"

Ye Youxiao's face turned even redder. But he couldn't remember where he had heard it, a man facing the woman he liked must make her know his feelings. He mustered his courage: "It's not worship, it's liking Jiuniang! Not only are you good at singing and dancing, but you are also beautiful and moving…"

Before the words were even out, only to hear Si Niang shout angrily and push Ye Youxiao away. This woman was strong! Ye Youxiao staggered two steps before regaining his balance.

Luckily, Li Jiuniang pulled her back. But her tone was still teasing: "Fourth Sister, wait! You scared the young master half to death. Don't be so playful, you know Besides, it's natural for someone who is in love at first sight to like me. What's wrong with that"

She doesn't think I'm rash! She doesn't think I desecrated her! Ye Youxiao's heart is about to jump out of his chest! Sure enough, sure enough! As long as you tell a woman the truth from your heart, she will reciprocate with sincerity and won't brutally trample on your feelings!

Si Nü's palm strike was simply insignificant!

Overwhelmed with excitement, Ye Youxiao suddenly felt a tap on his shoulder. It was her! It was her hand! It was Li Jiuniang's jade hand! She actually used her jade hand, the very hand that had captivated all the spectators, to pat my shoulder!

I'm done for!

Ye Youxiao felt incredibly happy, his face flushed red, almost to the point of fainting from excitement! Even if you include before he traveled through time, this was still his first love! But, but he had to hold on, because his goddess was still talking to him!

Imagine, Li Jiuniang's red lips and pearly teeth speaking just for me!

Li Jiuniang, seeing the young man in front of her who kept grinning foolishly at her, couldn't help but smile slightly:

"Aiyo, young master, you are too young! When you grow up taller, come and say this to me again. Maybe by then, this servant will fancy you! Haha."

Li Jiuniang couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Ye Youxiao was overjoyed: the goddess actually said she would look at me in the future She would look at me No, no, impossible.

Now, even Ye Youxiao's thoughts were trembling. He suspected he must have misheard, definitely misheard. But perhaps she really did say that

"Li Jiuniang, do you really think you will fancy me in the future"

His voice trembled, and his nervous eyes were fixed on Li Jiuniang. There was a deep love, intense affection, and boundless anticipation in them... Wait Why was there also pain in his expression

I couldn't help but shout: "Ouch! Sister, be gentle!"

Without looking back, with such skilled technique and precise placement, there is no one else in the world besides Ye Ma Wen who could do this.

Indeed, Mother Ye had twisted his ears.

After Li Jiuniang's departure, the three members of the Ye family stood looking at the empty shed, all feeling dejected. Yes, they had made a lot of money today, but no one in the Ye family was happy. This copper money, once so enticing! But now it is just cold metal, unable to arouse the excitement of the Ye family.

I was kicked out!

The key is that the two sides are vastly different in strength, they don't even have a chance to seek revenge.

That woman left behind eight or nine taels of silver. Is this an insult Or an apology Could it be severance pay

Ye Hou Sheng remained speechless for a long time. As his daughter was humiliated so badly by Li Jiuniang, he, as a father, felt extreme pain in his heart. Although he wasn't her match, Li Jiuniang smashed the pot too hard! Not only was his daughter bullied, but the entire Ye family was also affected. Who knows if they could even continue operating tomorrow In front of Li Jiuniang's gentle and elegant facade, did Ye Housheng's underlings still have a place to exist If she interfered again during the military recruitment, the Ye family wouldn't stand a chance.

Sitting in sullen silence for a while, the large shed housed only Granny Ye mechanically counting the wealth that had brought shame to her family. The copper coins were more numerous than imagined, totaling eleven taels.

This number silently records how crazy today's audience is.

"Where is Youxiao" Ye Ma said first.

She looked around, suddenly remembering something, and ran out in a hurry. Sure enough, her frail body was entangled with the fox spirit, and the fox spirit was even patting her brother on the shoulder!

An act of disrespect towards one's uncle is tolerable, but an act of disrespect towards one's aunt is unforgivable!

Yèniang, who was feeling dizzy, ran over regardless of her own safety. She skillfully grabbed her younger brother's ear while staring at Lǐ Jiǔniáng: "Even on the street you lay hands on people, isn't that disgraceful!"

Li Jiuniang was not afraid of this defeated subordinate at all. She sneered and retorted, "Shameful You're the one who acted recklessly and disgracefully! You ruined the reputation of our group, aren't you shameful"

She didn't hesitate to turn around and grab Ye Youxiao's arm, teasingly: "Young Master, who is this ugly little girl without eyebrows Is she your betrothed"

Ye Mama was most averse to people ridiculing her thin eyebrows. But Li Jiuniang deliberately rubbed salt into the wound! She was so angry she almost cried out loud, forcing back tears as she cried out sharply: "Li Jiuniang, you bully me!"

Just then, there was a clatter of hooves. The general Li Shengting from the Right Golden Guard, resplendent in fine robes and astride a steed, rode up with several attendants at his heels. He spotted Li Jiuniang at once and dismounted, shouting, "Haha, it's Jiuniang! What a delightful coincidence to meet you here!"

Ye Jia and her siblings watched the young general together. He had sword-like eyebrows, a height of six feet, a fair complexion, and a graceful bearing. After dismounting, he stood before Li Jiuniang, giving off an air of being like a jade tree in the wind. Coupled with Li Jiuniang's graceful figure, these two truly could be described as a perfect match.

Ye Youxiao suddenly felt a wave of despair. This young general was clearly Li Jiuniang's boyfriend. Compared to himself, the other party was superior in every aspect: age, height, appearance, clothing, and profession. He wasn't even on the same level!

Li Jiuniang merely gave the young general a sideways glance: "There are 108 li in Chang'an. You just happened to come to Yongshou Temple Don't you dare say it was a coincidence!"

Her companion, Si Niang, immediately burst into laughter.

Li Shengting seemed not to hear, "Nine Goddesses, you are free today. Why don't you go to Qujiang Pool for a stroll"

Li Jiuniang, of course, knew Li Shengting's intentions. She tilted her head and said to him: "I just want to go shopping at Xishi Market."

Li Shengting hesitated for a moment: "On the West Market side, Hou of Pei County has many subordinates, all rough and uncouth men. If we clash, it might be inconvenient."

Li Jiuniang was displeased: "In the grand capital, how can there be divisions based on land boundaries!" After finishing her words, she walked away by herself, and Si Niang followed closely behind.

Li Shengting caught up with Li Jiuniang in a few steps and said with a smile, “As you say, Jiuniang, let’s go to Xishi. I heard that a Persian merchant has brought many exotic items there. Would you like to have a look”

Li Jiuniang smiled, flipped onto Li Shengting's steed, and rode away.

Li Shengting hurriedly mounted a horse and chased after him.

Looking at this group of people leaving, Ye Youxiao couldn't help but say: "Sister, look, Jiuniao is such a fairy-like figure, yet she is entangled by these idle young men."

"Mother Ye gave him a light tap on the head and said, "What are you looking at! You're clearly a young talent who has been bewitched by that fox demon."

Ye Youxiao was about to differentiate, but seeing Ye Niang's warm face with tears, he couldn't help but ask strangely: "Sister, why are you crying"

Ye Ma gently wiped her face, concealing her tears and saying, "Who cried Perhaps it was the strong wind and sand on the street that got into someone's eyes."

Ye Youxiao was just casually asking, his mind was completely on Li Jiuniang. He blurted out, "They just said they were going to Xishi"

Ye Ma's temper was truly flaring this time: "You dare still be enamored with a fox demon! Come with me to see your father!"

This time, Ye Youxiao was prepared and actually broke free from Ye Ma's warm hand. Though he mumbled unconvincedly, "Sister, why are you so angry Jiu Niao is such a celestial beauty, even if I have a crush on her, so what Let me tell you, when I grow up, I'm going to marry her!"

Ye Ma's warm breath turned into a chuckle as she retorted, "During broad daylight, what nonsense are you spouting What daydreams are you having!"

Ye Youxiao hurriedly said, "Who dreamt this up I swear, in the future..."

"Mother Ye quickly covered his mouth and said, "Little ancestor, don't make rash oaths! Don't fool around anymore, okay Let's go back quickly. Father and Mother are still sulking in the shed."

Hearing that his stepfather and the others were upset, Ye Youxiao suddenly realized he might have been wrong. He had been so caught up in Li Jiuniang's beauty that he forgot about how their family had been humiliated by her today. After all, even if she was a fairy, she wouldn't have anything to do with him. But his family was his home!

The brother and sister returned to the hut. Ye Dajie forced a smile and said to Ye Niang Wen, "You're back. I just counted carefully, you guess how much money we made today"

Mother Ye said softly, “I don’t feel like guessing.”

Ye Youxiao wanted to guess, to guess how much money they had made. That was a good idea. But seeing Ajie's deadpan expression, he didn't want to make things awkward. He walked over to Aye and asked, "What about Li Jiuniang What are we going to do now that she's here"

Ye Hou Sheng looked at his adopted son and found that boys were indeed more sensible. They knew how to think of solutions for him. Immediately, he asked, "Do you have any ideas"

My godfather consulted me for advice! Ye Youxiao racked his brains, it seemed like he'd never done this before My godfather has always been the pillar of our family. Leaving Bianzhou for Caizhou, fleeing from Caizhou back to Chang'an, my godfather has always been the one making decisions. But today, it seems like my godfather is truly at a loss.

Ye Youxiao fell into deep thought. Everett did say that the Myriad Yuan Realm was like a lifesaver, but now no one is threatening my life with a sword. Do I really need to use a lifesaver Suddenly, I remembered that I've been having a carefree time these past few months, running around Chang'an, forgetting that I'm living on borrowed time. If I go back to the Myriad Yuan Realm again, will I truly be gone forever Will my life come to an end there

If you leave the Tang Dynasty, don't ever come back, or you'll just end up dead. So what can we do First go to Everett, then return to China from America Who will pay for the transportation costs You don't even have a passport. Besides, even if you really returned to the 1950s, you wouldn't have parents. Would you really find your grandfather and ask him to be your brother

Ye Dajiao saw Ye Youxiao lost in thought, and felt a pang of sympathy for him. She said, "Youxiao, don't worry too much. I'm afraid the Ninth Lady won't come."

Seeing his foster mother's kind eyes, Ye Youxiao had a cunning thought: no matter what, his foster father and mother treated him exceptionally well. If he couldn't repay them, he wouldn't be a man! Alas, although Li Jiuniang was both talented and beautiful, she definitely wasn't his type.

Mother Ye also noticed that Young Master Ye had been lost in thought for a long time, unable to speak. Unable to bear it any longer, she persuaded him: "If you are truly a man, go and subdue her arrogance! As long as she admits defeat, the Ye family will surely become famous!"

As soon as the words left her mouth, Ye Mama Wen started to regret it. Her original intention was only to stop Youxiao from overthinking things and bring him back to reality. But who knew that when the words came out, they turned into asking her younger brother to avenge her and defeat Li Jiuniang! Youxiao hadn't seriously practiced acting for a few days; how could he possibly defeat that vixen

"Sure enough, Aye glared at himself: "Speak after thinking first! That Li Jiuniang's singing was simply impeccable, truly reaching the pinnacle. How could you expect Youxiao to beat her!"

Ye Dalian sighed and didn't speak, but it was clear she also thought her daughter's words were unreliable.

Ye Youxiao looked at his stepfather, the phrase "think before you speak" almost made him laugh. Before he crossed over, his father often admonished him like this too. Two fathers, they actually spoke the same way... Oh wait, his father had another famous saying: Men shouldn't be afraid to brag, if your hands are empty, your mouth should be full!

Thinking of this, Ye Youxiao let out a long sigh and said loudly, "My elder sister is right. I have to sing a good play and surpass Li Jiuniang!"

Haha, bold words once spoken, indeed courage doubled, feeling light and refreshed!

But looking at the three listeners in his family, they all looked like they couldn't believe it. His stepfather remained impassive, still shaking his head and sighing, as if he hadn't heard his boastful words. Granny Ye reacted strongly, immediately reaching out to her forehead and looking, "Is this child sick"

As for my older sister, she actually started laughing: “Alright, alright, Youxiao, don't get so worked up. Your older sister was just teasing you. Don't take it seriously, really…” Before she could finish her sentence, she couldn't help but laugh again.

Ye Youxiao was really angry: What Is it so hard to brag

He shouted loudly, "Don't disbelieve me, I swear! We must surpass that Li Jiuniang and let our Ye family become famous throughout Chang'an!"

This passage was powerful and logically sound. Ye Hou-sheng looked at Ye You-xiao in bewilderment. Ye Da-niao hurriedly covered Ye You-xiao's mouth. "Silly child, what oath are you taking!"

Ye Ma Wen didn't know if she was stirring up trouble or truly hated Li Jiu Niang to her bones. She cheered, "You Xiao! You are such a man! No need to say more, sister fully supports you! Tell me, how can I help you"eng listened to Ye You-xiao's design and remained silent for a long time. 。Ye Youxiao couldn't help but worry. Aye wanted to defeat Li Jiuniang in a singing competition to avenge his daughter. This i...
