Chapitre 3: Chapter 3
In Xuanwu City, the Xu family was in the silk and cloth business. They owned tens of thousands of acres of mulberry fields and cotton fields. They were extremely wealthy.
The Xu family's daughter, Xu Qianqian, was a top beauty in Xuanwu City. She was proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting. Not only in Xuanwu City, but even in the entire Nujiang Prefecture, she was outstanding.
From the age of 15, she helped her father manage the family business. She was smart and capable. Moreover, she also made friends with many daughters of high officials and nobles. This allowed the Xu family to smoothly integrate into the upper class of Nuzhou Prefecture from a merchant family.
Such a beautiful, talented, and wealthy young lady was the dream lover of countless young men. Even if she wanted to marry into their family, the stupid Shen Lang would never have a chance. Although he was very handsome, he and Xu Qianqian were worlds apart. It was impossible for them to be together. Under normal circumstances, Xu Qianqian would not even look at him.
But no one would have thought that a year ago, Xu Qianqian suddenly became seriously ill. Rich Lord Xu looked for all the doctors in the vicinity, but they were all unable to cure her. She was about to die.
At this time, a necromancer came to Xu and said that Xu Qianqian was not sick at all. Instead, she was bewitched. There was only one way to save his daughter. That was to get married and transfer the bad luck and evil energy to this son-in-law.
Of course, Xu did not believe this. But Xu Qianqian was about to die. He could only try it as a last resort. He publicly looked for a son-in-law for Xu Qianqian in the entire Nujiang Prefecture. If it was before, countless young men would have broken their heads to fight for this marriage. Even if Xu Qianqian was about to die, even if the Xu family was rich, there would still be countless people fighting to be this son-in-law.
Paper could not cover fire. The Xu family looked for a son-in-law for Xu Qianqian to get married and transfer the evil energy. This matter was spread out.
Everyone loved beauties and gold coins, but their lives were more important. Of course, transferring evil energy was something that people were afraid of. Those young heroes who had been yearning for Xu Qianqian were all afraid of it, and no one was willing to come to their door.
Two years ago, Shen Lang, the imbecile from the alien world, had accidentally seen Xu Qianqian once and had been thinking about her ever since.
Other young elites might only admire Xu Qianqian, but Shen Lang completely regarded her as a god. Just like Forrest Gump in the movie Forrest Gump was obsessed with Jenny.
Ever since he was chased away by the school, he had been drawing and writing on the ground every day. Most of the time, he was drawing Xu Qianqian's face.
When he heard that Xu Qianqian was seriously ill and needed a man to get married and transfer the evil energy, he didn't hesitate to rush to the Xu family and said that he was willing to marry Xu Qianqian to get married, and he didn't discuss it with his parents.
Of course, his parents and younger brother didn't agree. They directly rushed to the Xu family to stop it, but it was too late. Shen Lang had already married the unconscious Xu Qianqian. Even so, his parents and younger brother insisted on bringing Shen Lang home, but they were kicked out by the Xu family.
At that time, the housekeeper of the Xu family gave his father Shen Wan fifty gold coins, but his father directly threw it back. He said that he would never take the money from selling his son.
In this way, Shen Lang became the son-in-law of the Xu family.
A handsome and poor country boy with low IQ married into a rich family.
Of course, Shen Lang became the son-in-law of the Xu family not for glory and wealth, but to save his dream lover, Xu Qianqian. Even if getting married to get married and transfer the evil energy sounded completely nonsense.
However, a strange thing happened. After getting married, Xu Qianqian actually recovered and became even more beautiful and charming.
This made the Xu family incredulous and overjoyed.
Shen Lang didn't mean to take the credit. He still stayed in his small courtyard every day, reading, writing and drawing.
The Xu family's attitude towards him became somewhat complicated. They were happy that Xu Qianqian could recover, but Shen Lang was, after all, a stupid and poor country boy. He wasn't even worthy of Xu Qianqian's fingers.
As a result, the servants and maids of the Xu family started gossiping more and more. Words like a toad lusting after swan meat, or a poor boy's wishful thinking often rang in their ears. The disdainful looks the servants gave Shen Lang also became more and more explicit.
The food that was sent became worse and worse. At first, it was cold, and then it simply became rotten. Although Shen Lang was born poor, he was spoiled by his parents since he was a child. In this rich Xu family, the food he ate was not as good as it was in the countryside.
Not only that, he was also driven to live in a woodshed. There wasn't even a bed, and a mat was directly laid on the ground.
Shen Lang's intelligence was low, and he was stupid and pure. He would not complain, nor would he complain. When he was bullied, he could only bear it silently.
Later, Xu Qianqian found out and flew into a rage. She ordered the servants who treated Shen Lang cruelly to be punished. Each of them was whipped a dozen times. She also publicly announced that if anyone dared to bully Shen Lang again, they would be directly expelled from the Xu family.
So Shen Lang returned to live in the gorgeous courtyard. The food was excellent every day. Even every day or two, Xu Qianqian would come to talk to him. These days, to Shen Lang, he was like a god.
Even though they had been married for several months, not to mention sharing a bed, he didn't even touch a finger of his wife, Xu Qianqian. But as long as he could see her often and hear her voice, Shen Lang was already incomparably satisfied and happy.
But just half a month ago, Shen Lang suddenly became seriously ill. Xu Qianqian found several famous doctors for him, but they couldn't cure him. She didn't even know what illness he had. Every day, he became weaker and weaker, and he became on the verge of death.
Until today, he directly breathed his last. This allowed Shen Lang's soul to cross over and occupy this body.
So, his short life was a tragedy from beginning to end, and a stupid one at that!
…
Shen Lang sighed in his heart.
Then, he discovered that there were other things in his mind besides the memories of the two of them.
It was full of magical and mysterious things. He couldn't help but concentrate, wanting to find out what it was in his mind.
And at this moment, footsteps came from outside.
"This trash should be dead. He's really strong. He actually held on for so many days before dying!"
"It's good that he's dead, lest he delays our family's young miss."
"That's right. Such a useless trash, and a poor boy from the countryside, still wanted to marry our family's young miss. With his cheap life, how could he bear this blessing? Sure enough, he's dead. "
"But even if he dies, it's worth it. Our young miss is like a heavenly figure. Every day, she asks about his well-being and cares for him in every possible way."
"Our young miss is really kind. A person with a mental illness like this can actually chat with him for half an hour every day."
Xu Qianqian had once ordered that no one was allowed to bully Shen Lang, or else they would be expelled from the Xu family. So before, these servants and maids didn't dare to ridicule Shen Lang like this. But these days, seeing that Shen Lang was about to die and couldn't hear them, their courage gradually grew.
These servants and maids sneered as they opened the door. Every half an hour, they would come in to check on Shen Lang's body.
"Go see if he's dead or not!" After entering the door, a maid covered her nose and said.
In the next second, the maid let out a cry of surprise and looked at Shen Lang in disbelief.
More than half an hour ago, she came to see Shen Lang. He was clearly on the verge of death. But now, not only was he not dead, but he was sitting straight on the bed. Although his body was weak, he was actually full of energy.
"You, you're not dead?" The maid blurted out.
"Yes, I'm not dead." Shen Lang said.
The servants stared at his face in surprise. After a long time, the maid in the lead said: "Quickly go tell Master and Young Miss that Shen Lang is not dead."
Then, the servants and maids hurried out.
