Reborn: Revenge of the Concubine's Daughter-Chapter 245 - Forecasting the fate of the man and the woman in the dream
Chapter 245 Forecasting the fate of the man and the woman in the dream
Bai Yangbai kept his head up and flaunted, “I’m your husband’s teacher and your elder. You should be polite to me. You can’t call me ‘old goat’ or ‘old monster’ again!”
“Teacher?” He Danggui repeated it blankly and covered her face, crying with regret, “How did that happen? I... I am tarnished, and I no longer deserve the noble Lord Ning. You old goat, why do you save me? I’d rather die for being abused by other men!”
Bai Yangbai came to her and patted her head, comforting her, “Don’t be like this. I have told you many times that it is just a dream. The man in a place far away just had a dream the same as yours. After you wake up, nothing has changed. No man has ever really touched a finger of you. To be precise, you haven’t lost your reputation, so you’d better relax and forget it.”
He Danggui also wanted to forget it as a dream, but as soon as she closed eyes, she could see the unsightly scene in the water mirror, and the sense of weakness of her body showed that it was definitely not a simple dream. Besides, a strange man in the world had the same dream as her. Wasn’t that cheating on the Lord?
Bai Yangbai helplessly looked at the crying girl and said with a head tilt, “Why are you so serious? Are you not worthy of Quan? No, you are pretty good, and better than all the women he often sleeps with! You are not pure? You are clean from head to toe, and I didn’t watch your body when I dressed you. But Quan had women being at his side in his fifteen. Now five years on, there are at least 80 or 100 women he has hugged. You don’t frown upon him, so what right has he to be disgusted with you?” 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖
He Danggui sobbed, “He is the superior lord and a man. I am as lowly as an ant and a woman. How can we be equal?”
Bai Yangbai kept shaking his head, “Who did you learn it from? Nonsense! Don’t say anything like that again. You are spoiling yourself, so what will others do to you? Alas, although we meet by chance, I take pity on you because you are as stubborn as the younger me. Well, it is my fault. If you can’t take what happened in the dream, I’ll ask Quan to give you to me. He won’t give others his concubine, but he will give me. And I’ll ask him to give you a divorce letter, so that you will be free. Then I will take you to Shanhaiguan to find ‘the man in your dream’, okay?”
“A divorce letter?” He Danggui stopped crying and muttered blankly, “The divorce letter...” Was it the same as the letter of divorce with agreement that her mother got in those days?
Bai Yangbai thought his advice was accepted, so he kept saying, “If you like, I can be the matchmaker to help you find your lover. The guy who took advantage of you in the dream is really nice. His talent probably is only after Quan, and he is not a playboy like Quan. How do you feel, girl?” He Danggui didn’t answer, so he rubbed hands awkwardly and continued, “Um... I don’t mean to peep at you. I am afraid that both of you are virgins and don’t know how to make out, so I quietly peeped at you in the dream... Well, he is a bit rude, but you have to be considerate. This is the first time that he has touched a woman in 16 years. Moreover, he also took the philter…”
“What? You mean he also took...” He Danggui raised her watery eyes, looking at the wretched immortal. ƒ𝚛𝐞𝚎𝑤𝘦𝚋𝓷o𝚟e𝘭.c𝐨𝙢
“Yep.” Bai Yangbai affectedly came to her with his face, explaining, “I found him hard with the magic of Hun Yin in a long distance, and talked to him for a long time. I told him to save a girl who was suffering from the philter. Anyway, men don’t lose out. But he just disagreed. He said that he didn’t know how to make out and he was busy. He told me to go to his brothers for help. So, I failed. When my mind came back, I saw you writhing on the bed with weak cry. That was so charming. I almost lost control... Well, focus! I found you were on your last legs, so I immediately burned the amulet paper and used Hun Yin to summon the pure guy into your dream. But he resolutely refused to be your antidote.”
He Danggui looked at him and asked angrily, “Since he was unwilling, why did you use the philter to coerce him? Didn’t you say that he was just a phantom in my dream? So, why could you use the philter to him? He is a living person, right? In fact, everything happened in the dream is real, right?”
Bai Yangbai became angry. He stared at her breasts and said, “It is because your breasts are too small to attract men. The long-faced woman you turned into because of envy is much uglier than you. Of course, you can’t evoke a young man’s flutter like him with an ugly face and a skinny body! After he went to the jade mansion and saw you who was with only a bellyband left by Quan, he turned away at once. I was so worried and yelled at him, but he ignored me and ran out of the jade mansion. With heartlessness, I poured all the Jinfeng Yulu Powder I got from Tai Shan into his mouth. For sure, this cost me a lot of power, and I can’t get my power back after eating ten chickens. And he took the philter in dream, so it only worked in dream. If he wakes up thousand miles away, the philter won’t work.”
He Danggui bit her lips with eyes down, “Who…is he?”
Bai Yangbai didn’t answer her but kept saying, “I was very nervous, for fear that he would knock down half of the jade mansion like you and force his way out the dream. But I didn’t expect that the powder was so strong that made him crazy at once. He ran upstairs to find you like a rutting bull. Actually, he got the skill by himself and did even better than Quan. So, what do you think? If you like, I will ask Quan to divorce you, and I will take you to the east to find him. I can’t tell you his name until you agree. After all, I am a little bit sorry for him. If I tell you his name and destroy his image, it will be worse.”
He Danggui rubbed her clothes, looked down and thought. But her mind was twisted like her clothes, and she had no idea about this matter.
Bai Yangbai took another chicken wing and handed it to her. He said with a smile, “It is the most suffering to think about the problem with hungry. You are so thin that you can be blown away by wind. You should eat more.” He Danggui took the chicken wing. He saw her eating delicately, and said with a sigh of relief, “That’s right. Chastity and men are all bullshit. What can be more important than your own life? You want to die for your husband who actually doesn’t know you? How did your parents teach you?”
He Danggui paused and then kept eating the chicken wing. Bai Yangbai suddenly recalled her words and realized that she might have no parents, so he quickly moved to another subject.
A roast chicken and a few sesame seed cakes were eaten by them. Bai Yangbai served her to gargle, wash hands and drink tea like a little maid. Seeing her unhappy look and confused eyes, he patted his thigh and said through gritted teeth, “Well, let me show you my specialty, the unique Marriage Plate for 3 Lives.”
Bai Yangbai took out a rough porcelain plate with two gaps from his arms. Although its name was good, it looked really bad. So, He Danggui just glanced at it out of the corner of her eyes and then stayed in a daze. She slept with a strange man and had a wonderful story with her unfamiliar husband, Lord Ning Zhu Quan. Now, the old bogeyman suggested that she should take Lord Ning’s divorce letter and then go thousand miles in search of her husband, the man in her dream. How should she choose?
Bai Yangbai didn’t mind her indifference. He cleaned the table and set aside the “Marriage Plate for 3 Lives” uprightly. Then he muttered solemnly for some time.
He Danggui used to see Taoist nun being deliberately mystifying in Shui Shang Temple when she was young, so she had no respect for what he was doing. Even if he was a master, he was not an immortal. How could he forecast her marriage? When she first saw the middle-aged man dressed as a Knight, she thought he was handsome and energetic. When he killed Tai Shan with a sword, he was cool. But now, she treated him as a wretched mystical conman.
Suddenly, a violent wind howled outside the window. The window secured with a lock blew open. Then all candles blew out, and only a bean-like oil lamp was on. The ugly “Marriage Plate for 3 Lives” suddenly turned and jumped on its own. It even asked, “This beautiful lady, what do you want to forecast? Your marriage and luck in love?” Its voice was deep and raspy.
He Danggui looked at the talking plate in surprise and considered for a moment. She glared at Bai Yangbai, “It is you who spoke, right? You said in a different voice to scare me as a plate.” That kind of oily tone was clearly his.
With his mouth closed, Bai Yangbai blinked to her, and then the raspy voice came again, “Little girl, you don’t have to doubt. The world is so big that nothing is to be surprised at. It is not impossible that a plate can speak. Besides, I am the unique ‘Marriage Plate for 3 Lives’. So, beautiful lady, what can I do for you? I can answer your questions for free.”
He Danggui was stunned. She looked at his unmoved mouth and Adam’s apple, and then looked at the plate that was jumping around on the table. She asked in surprise, “Old goat, are you... an immortal? Is the plate a magic subject?”
He blinked and pursed his lips, “Although I call myself an ‘old master’, it is just my personal hobby. I am a debonair gentleman and only 20 years older than you. Can you stop calling me old goat? Even if you are young and beautiful, you can’t discriminate against me! Or you can call me ‘nice uncle’ later. How about it, young sister?”
He Danggui was still stunned. She didn’t expect to meet an immortal in her lifetime, and the so-called immortal was totally not a sage-like type, but a slovenly slicker!
She didn’t respond him. Bai Yangbai scratched his face boringly, and then the plate jumped and said again, “Little girl, as long as you give me your date of birth and eight characters of a horoscope, I can forecast your marriage in your previous life, this life, and next life. You are so beautiful, so it is for free. After the divination, you can give me a kiss in return. As a plate, I rarely get sweet kisses from beauties. Is that OK, little girl?”
