【The Strange Tales of an Old Bachelor】(Episode 1, Chapter 1)

Episode 1: A Twisted Fate
Chapter 1: The Pillar of the Family
In a remote mountain village, there lived an old bachelor named Chen Chunguo.
Because he was the eldest among his brothers, everyone called him Elder Chen. Elder Chen was well-
known in the village and even the surrounding township and county! He was honest, helpful, gentle, intelligent, and capable. A self-taught man, he
was not only proficient in herbal medicine but also skilled in treating illnesses, eventually becoming a moderately successful entrepreneur. However,
he never married and remained a bachelor.
In the autumn of his twentieth year, Elder Chen went up the mountain with his father to collect herbs. On their way home, his father accidentally fell off
a cliff. When Chen Laoda found his father, his father was covered in wounds, coughing up blood, and on the verge of death
. Hearing his son's cries, he said haltingly, "Chunguo—Dad—is dying—you must—
take over from Dad—and take on the responsibility of this family—so that your mother—your sister—your younger siblings—
have someone to rely on—so that they—are all happy and joyful—I'll be at peace then—promise me now…
"
Chen Laoda cried out in anguish, "Dad—Dad—I promise you! But—you must
hold on, the whole family can't live without you!" His father didn't say anything more, his lips trembled slightly, revealing
a satisfied smile, and then he slowly closed his eyes. Chen Laoda quickly carried his father on his back, crying "Dad
!" as he ran frantically home!
Along the way, his father woke up several times, repeating the same sentence each time: "I believe—my son—
is stronger than Dad…" Chen Laoda just hummed in agreement and continued running desperately. When he carried his father
home, it was already dark. His mother and younger siblings were all around him, crying and wailing. Finally,
his father opened his eyes again and said with difficulty to his mother, "Let—the eldest son—take over from me—manage this
household—let his sister—and the eldest son…" His words seemed to be cut short as he convulsed,
vomited black blood, closed his eyes, and stopped breathing forever.
His mother, Zhang Caifeng, was 42 years old at the time. According to custom, after her husband's death,
she should have been in charge of the household affairs. However, since marrying into the Chen family, she had always relied on her husband to manage things and had never worried about any
household matters. Regardless of what her husband's dying words meant, she could only place all her hopes on
her eldest son, Chen Laoda.
At that time, Chen Laoda's older sister, Chunlan, was already married; his younger sister, Chunhua, was 16; his younger sister, Chunmei, was 12
; his older brother, Chunjun, was 8; and his younger brother, Chunming, was only 4. At that time, collectivization had just been disbanded, and
families without labor force were in dire straits. Chen Laoda's father, relying on his family's traditional Chinese medicine skills, originally worked as a barefoot doctor in the village
, later becoming a privately practicing village doctor. With Chen Laoda already an adult, the family's living conditions were
slightly better than average. However, after his father's death, all the burdens of the family fell on Chen Laoda's shoulders. His father
's dying words echoed in his mind, and he didn't know if he could shoulder this responsibility.
During the three days of his father's funeral, Chen Laoda cried incessantly, more heartbroken than anyone else!
After burying his father, Chen Laoda's mood was already low, but then something even worse happened. Just
three days before his father's "49" memorial day, his childhood sweetheart's marriage suddenly fell through. The woman was
a distant cousin of Chen Laoda's, a year older than him—actually only three months older by the year.
A few days before Chen Laoda's father passed away, the two had met and agreed to get married this year. Unexpectedly, the woman suddenly
sent the betrothal gifts back through the matchmaker, saying that her mother had consulted a fortune teller who matched the couple's
birth dates and horoscopes. The fortune teller said not only were their zodiac signs incompatible, but Chen Laoda's fate was also "unlucky for wives," meaning he would never be able to marry. Therefore, the woman's mother insisted on annulling the engagement.
This blow was no less devastating than his father's death; Chen Laoda's spirit completely collapsed!
The once lively and cheerful Chen Laoda seemed to become a different person—taciturn, sullen, and
prone to lashing out at his younger siblings! His older sister, Chen Chunlan, had returned to her parents' home early to prepare for their father's 49th-day memorial
service. Seeing her brother so unhappy, she tried her best to comfort him, but Chen Laoda seemed to have his ears plugged and
wouldn't listen at all. Whenever the topic of finding a wife came up, Chen the eldest would fly into a rage: "People say I'm cursed
to bring misfortune to my wife, what's the point of finding one! I'm destined to be a bachelor for life!"
Chen Chunlan found the woman's reason for breaking off the engagement absurd, so she consulted a fortune teller to
verify it in front of her brother. Unexpectedly, the fortune teller also said her brother was cursed to bring misfortune to his wife. Seeking a solution, the reply was that unless
they married without proper formalities and registration, it wouldn't count as marriage. Chen Chunlan didn't believe it and consulted two more fortune tellers, whose opinions
were still the same. But what girl would want to be a wife without a formal title?
How could her brother be happy if he couldn't find a wife? How could she, as his older sister, make him happy? Her brother
was now the sole breadwinner of the family!
The repeated fortune telling results only worsened Chen the eldest's mood.
It was impossible for several fortune tellers to collude to deceive him; how could they all say the same thing? It seemed his cursed fate to bring misfortune to his wife was real! He fell into
despair, nearly driven to madness. He would tell everyone he met, "I'm destined to be a jinx, a bachelor for life
!" People thought Chen Laoda had gone mad! Everyone felt sorry for him, and many scolded the woman for being heartless
—breaking off the engagement so soon after her father's death! They accused her of being a gold
digger, saying it was just because her father was no longer a source of income!
Chen Chunlan was filled with regret. She had intended to use the same fortune-telling method to dispel the "jinx" theory,
but it backfired. It not only worsened her brother's mental anguish but also quickly made the "
jinx" theory public knowledge. Although many sympathized with him and didn't believe
it, any girl would be suspicious, and how would he ever find a wife? If anything happened to him, the
family would truly collapse!
"I can't let my brother sink into despair; I have to find a way to cheer him up!" Chen Chunlan
was determined, but she couldn't think of a better solution. She wanted to use her younger sister to "exchange marriages" with her younger brother, which was considered unusual in the local area.
It's a custom for sisters from different families to marry each other's brothers. But her younger sister
is only 16; she'll have to wait at least two more years to get married. Can her brother wait that long? It's too late!
She even considered finding a woman who would need a "matchmaker" for her brother, but
how could a strong, handsome, and capable man like him stoop to being someone else's "matchmaker"?
The more Chen Chunlan couldn't think of a solution, the more she felt she hadn't been a good older sister, even blaming her parents for
marrying her off so early; otherwise, her brother's situation would be much easier. Thinking about this, her heart sank even further. Because
she thought of her own experience, she felt even more sorry for her brother. She was three years older than him and had been married for over two years. Although
her in-laws treated her well, her husband was handsome but impotent. She was very unhappy with him
, and hadn't been able to conceive in over two years.
When they first got married, she noticed that her husband's penis was extremely small, even smaller than that of a ten-year-old child.
His testicles were also tiny, like peas, making him look like a eunuch from the old imperial palace. She also discovered that he
had no sexual desire whatsoever. Even when she managed to get his penis erect, she felt nothing during penetration; at most, she felt
a slight reaction in her clitoris and labia majora. But after a few thrusts, his penis would soften, and he couldn't ejaculate! Sometimes
he would try to ejaculate, but it was just urination, and she would experience some pleasure during this.
The force of his urination, the warm urine flowing out, seemed to provide
some pleasure. For the past two years, whenever she wanted, she would make him hold his urine, turning her vagina into a urinal!
She didn't understand why his penis was so small, or why he liked her but had no sexual desire for her
. Sometimes she wanted to cry, but no tears came, because her husband and his family treated her very well. However, she
found the mental anguish unbearable and wanted to understand the situation so she could find a solution. Although she was somewhat
ashamed to speak of it after her marriage, she couldn't help but confide in her mother-in-law two months later and learned the truth
.
Chen Chunlan's husband's family also shared the surname Chen. His name was Chen Dianqiao, the same age as her, only three months older.
Her father-in-law, Chen Shimi, was the deputy mine manager at a coal mine in the county. He was 43 years old when Chen Chunlan married him and
rarely returned home, mostly living in the city. Her mother-in-law, Li Caihua, was five years younger than her father-in-law. She was his second wife after his divorce when he was young.
Chen Dianqiao was her first child. She later had three daughters and two other
daughters who were not her biological children, left over from her first marriage. They were all married.
Chen Dianqiao was the first son in three generations of his family, and his father cherished him dearly. When he was eight years old, he
went hunting in the mountains with his father. Feeling sleepy, his father laid him down on a stone slab to sleep. Unexpectedly, a large poisonous scorpion crawled into his groin .
Feeling itchy, he scratched, and the scorpion bit him several times, causing him to cry out in pain
. His father quickly came over, pulled down his pants, and killed the scorpion. Then, looking at his groin, he discovered that the bites
were on his penis and testicles, which quickly became red and swollen. His father carried him home and
applied mercurochrome to his penis and testicles. Because scorpion bites were common in the area and usually
healed in two or three days, his father didn't think much of it and forgot about it after the swelling subsided. Little did he know,
this very scorpion was the cause of Chen Dianqiao's stunted growth of his penis and testicles.
When Chen Dianqiao was 12, his mother noticed that while he had grown much taller, his penis was
smaller than when he was bitten by a scorpion. She asked her husband to take him to the county hospital for a checkup. Unexpectedly, her husband returned saying the hospital diagnosed him as a late bloomer
, but after further examination, they said it was congenital, adding that a small penis didn't preclude marriage and children.
Therefore, he hadn't told Chen Chunlan the truth before their marriage, fearing it would ruin the engagement.
After learning the truth, Chen Chunlan went to the hospital with her husband. They were told that his
sexual nervous system was underdeveloped, affecting the development of his sexual organs and functions, possibly related to the scorpion venom. They were told it would be difficult
to have normal sexual relations, let alone conceive. Undeterred, Chen Chunlan accompanied her husband to a specialized
hospital in a large city for examination and treatment, but there was still no improvement. In desperation, she had to agree to let him give
up treatment, thus becoming a de facto widow.
Through learning about her husband's situation, Chen Chunlan discovered her mother-in-law's tragic plight and her father-in-law's sinister intentions. It turned out
that her father-in-law had not only caused her husband's impotence but also left her mother-in-law a living widow, and was even
plotting against her! Her father-in-law had been a playboy in his youth and still kept two mistresses. However, no one in the family
dared to offend him, because he was not only powerful and influential but also the family's cash cow, leaving her mother-in-law with no choice but
to submit.
Chen Chunlan had considered divorce, but her parents strongly opposed it, saying that divorcing after only a few months of marriage
would be too shameful. Moreover, her in-laws treated her very well, including her father-in-law, whom she disliked, who
was respectful and accommodating. Her husband, in particular, was impeccable in every way except for his impotence,
and was extremely attentive and considerate towards her. She felt even more sympathy for her mother-in-law's plight, and the two women had
a close, mother-daughter-like relationship. Therefore, aside from being wary of and dealing with her father-in-law, she had no other complaints.
But was she destined to be a living widow for the rest of her life? Is sexual intercourse limited to using the vagina as a urinal for solace
? Chen Chunlan was truly unwilling to accept this! Her husband and mother-in-law sympathized with her and even offered to divorce her,
becoming her godbrother and godmother. But the more they did this, the more reluctant she became to leave them. Later, her husband
and mother-in-law proposed a win-win solution: as long as no one knew, she could find a suitable man to father a
child with, maintain a long-term relationship with that man, and the child born would be considered part of the Chen family. Her father-in-law, for reasons unknown
, also supported this plan.
Chen Chunlan told her parents about the situation, wanting their advice. She
even considered asking her father to father a child for her, but he refused, offering gentle reassurance. Moreover, her parents forbade
her from casually seeking a father, demanding she remain chaste and find him a man she could entrust her life to
, guaranteeing she wouldn't become a widow. Although she didn't know her parents' true intentions, she knew her own parents
wouldn't harm her.
Thinking this, Chen Chunlan's mind cleared. Her younger brother was depressed
because he couldn't find a wife, and she was troubled by her impotence. If she could be a temporary wife for her brother every now and then, both of their
troubles would be solved! Besides, her brother was so strong that he could definitely get her pregnant, so there would be no need to find someone to conceive with
! Couldn't she entrust her life to her own brother? The child born would be her brother's nephew or niece, and also
his son or daughter. Her in-laws would approve. Why not do such a good thing?
Chen Chunlan became happier and happier as she thought about it. She could have sex with her own brother without having to hide it. No one else would
know. Her in-laws would be satisfied, she would be happy, and the siblings would love each other, making their relationship even stronger. It would solve her brother's
pain of being "unlucky in finding a wife" and remove the "heartache" of being a widow. It was truly a win-win situation!
Thinking this, she felt a sensation in her lower body, as if her brother's penis was already inside her, and she couldn't help but feel
itchy. She longed to be in her younger brother's arms as soon as possible, to be with him like a newlywed in
their bridal chamber!
However, Chen Chunlan also worried. Her parents had always opposed her finding a man to father her child. Had they
already found a suitable man for her, and were just waiting for an opportunity for her to remarry? Now that her father was gone,
only her mother knew the truth. If she rashly decided to spend her life with her brother, would it anger her mother? And if she
made her mother sick, that would be troublesome! Besides, she didn't know her brother's feelings. If he rejected her kindness
, or even looked down on her because of it, it would backfire! After much thought, she decided
it would be better to discuss it with her mother first. If her mother agreed, she could persuade her brother!
At that time, Chen's family only had one courtyard, three main rooms and two side rooms. Subtracting the two main halls, there were three living rooms.
When her father was alive, her parents lived in the east room of the main house, the three brothers lived in the west room, and the three sisters
lived in the side rooms. After her father's death, her two younger sisters moved into her mother's room. Chen the eldest was in a bad mood and
moved into the side room alone. Chen Chunlan had no choice but to stay with her two younger brothers. That night, after putting her brothers to sleep, she
went to her mother's room, but it was dark. Only her youngest sister was already fast asleep on the kang (a heated brick bed).
Where were her mother and eldest sister?
Chen Chunlan came out of the east room and saw that the front door of the main room was not closed, and the light in the outer side room was on. She thought that her mother
might be worried that her brother might do something rash, so she took her eldest sister to persuade him to calm down. She tiptoed
to the window, but saw only her eldest sister, Chunhua, doing her homework at the table by lamplight, while her brother was lying
on the kang, dressed, seemingly asleep. Her mother was not in her brother's room.
Chen Chunlan was puzzled: Why did her mother send her eldest sister to her brother's room? Did her mother want her eldest sister to keep
her brother company? But her eldest sister was only 16 years old. If her brother defiled her, how would she get married in the future? Even if the older sister had
this idea, the younger brother shouldn't be so selfish, disregarding his sister's future happiness and only seeking his own momentary pleasure
!
Thinking this, Chen Chunlan felt a surge of jealousy. She knew her older sister, Chunhua, adored her brother
; when they were little, she'd said she'd marry him when she grew up, even showing him her private parts. And her younger brother, Chunguo,
also adored his older sister; when he was a teenager, he even allowed her to sleep in the same bed with him. No wonder her brother was so heartbroken
but was able to go to bed early today—had the siblings already reached an understanding, and with their mother's permission,
was it going to happen after Chunhua finished her homework?
"No! I must stop them! I can't let them get together now. It won't matter
after Chunhua gets married! Right now, I'm the only woman in the house who's suitable to keep my brother company!" She made up her
mind and headed towards the house. But just then, she heard her mother crying from the backyard…
Hearing her mother's cries seemed to awaken Chen Chunlan from her earlier jealousy. She quietly left
the side room and followed the sound towards the backyard. She laughed at her impulsiveness earlier. Her younger sister was trying to make
her brother happy, and fostering a sibling relationship was a good thing; why did she want to stop it? Of
course, this meant she had fallen deeply in love with her younger brother. But if she was allowed to love her brother, why couldn't her sister love her brother
? Besides, she was the older sister; how could she be jealous of her younger sister? Even if her brother also loved her younger sister,
if she, as the older sister, let her brother know her predicament, she believed he would sympathize with her, and they could still be together
! Thinking this, she reached the back door of the main room.
The back door was ajar. Chen Chunlan gently opened it a crack and slipped into the backyard. This was
the deep backyard of the Chen family's ancestral home. The sides and north had walls similar to the front yard. In the middle was the site for three main houses.
Currently, only a thatched shed on the east side was used to store farm tools and firewood, and at the north end there was a livestock shed and a
pigsty. The livestock shed was empty, but two piglets were kept in the pigpen. By the dim moonlight, Chen Chunlan saw her mother
sitting on the stone pier used to tether the livestock, holding a lit incense stick. Besides the sound of crying
, she seemed to be muttering something.
Because there were still unharvested vegetables and crops on the open ground, Chen Chunlan could only walk along the wall towards the livestock shed.
As she approached, she heard her mother muttering to herself in a low voice: "My cousin liked
you back then too, but you only liked me. Now she's broken up the marriage of two children, it's revenge on us. What do you mean by
the eldest son being a jinx? I don't believe it! The eldest son is a reincarnation of Vajra, how could he be a jinx! Your departure makes me miss
him even more! Now, the eldest son is almost going crazy, what am I going to do? Before you left, you asked the eldest son to take your place,
how exactly did you ask him to take your place? Tell me! Also, what did you mean by talking about the eldest son and his sister? Tell
me everything! Waaah..."
