Chapter 100
He Qin subconsciously stopped what he was doing and turned around when he heard this. Lu Xiaobai was standing barefoot at the door, her thin undershirt hanging askew on her body, revealing her fair chest. She pouted and said unhappily, "It's not even daybreak yet and you guys are already arguing. I can't sleep!"
He Chong didn't know Lu Xiaobai, so he looked over when he heard the voice. However, the moment his eyes met Lu Xiaobai, he immediately turned around and hurriedly went back to his room with his sword.
He Qin quickly ran over, pulled his clothes over him, frowned, and said, "Why don't you put on your clothes properly?"
"hot."
Lu Xiaobai was helpless. Although he liked to cover himself with a quilt when sleeping, he didn't feel hot after falling asleep. But when he woke up, he felt hot again. He rolled around in bed a few times, and his clothes fell apart. He was in a hurry to get out and forgot about it.
"It's cold in the morning."
He Qin helped him put on his inner clothes, pulled him into the house and sat him down, found shoes for him, and then took out his coat and put it on him.
Lu Xiaobai wanted to sleep some more, so he raised his hand to refuse: "I won't wear it. Are you guys going to beat me or not? If not, I want to sleep a little longer."
He Qin: "Sorry, I forgot you're not used to it. Go to sleep. We won't compete anymore."
Not fighting anymore?
Lu Xiaobai yawned, shook his head and said, "It's okay, if you don't want to fight, I'll go to sleep and get up when the sun comes up."
The nights in summer are very short. He estimated the time. It was light around five in the morning and still light around eight in the evening. Adding to that the washing and tidying up, how long could he sleep at night?
Getting up so early to fight, you really have nothing to do!
As Lu Xiaobai spoke, he climbed onto the bed, hugged the quilt and said with a smile: "He Qin, the quilt at my sister-in-law's house is so comfortable, and this straw mat is not bad either. Lying on it is not as uncomfortable as I thought."
He Qin touched the straw mat, then touched the quilt underneath it, and said with a smile: "This is a new quilt, of course it is comfortable. I guess my sister-in-law herself couldn't bear to use it, but she made it as a cushion for you."
"Sister-in-law is so nice."
Whoever is good to Lu Xiaobai, Lu Xiaobai wants to repay the kindness. His sister-in-law is not only good to him, but also a relative.
So Lu Xiaobai hugged He Qin's arm and pulled him to the bed: "It's just that they have no children. When they get old, there will definitely be no one to take care of them. We must be filial to them."
He Qin burst out laughing after hearing this: "Be filial to them? I'm only four years younger than my eldest brother, and my eldest sister-in-law is about the same age as me. When they get old, we will be old too."
"What should we do then?"
Lu Xiaobai looked up anxiously: "How about you go and find out if there are any unwanted children for Big Brother to adopt?"
You can't live your whole life without children.
Otherwise, it will be such a pity when they are old.
Moreover, judging from the amount of food he ate last night, He Chong should not have any secret guards around him. If we don’t count them, there are really only two people.
Then who will take care of them when they get old and sick?
He Qin shook his head: "Even if Big Brother wants to adopt, he can only adopt the bloodline of the Nanhe royal family."
My eldest brother is going back to inherit the throne. When he gets old, there will be no one to take care of them, and it is impossible for him to adopt an orphan casually.
"Royal blood?"
Lu Xiaobai rested his head on He Qin's chest and thought for a long time before saying, "But, but I think your family doesn't have any younger generations yet."
The eldest brother and his wife are both men and cannot have children. The third prince He Yu is not married yet, and neither is Zhou Zhou.
The other princes and princesses were still young, and even if a few of the half-grown princes had concubines, they were unable to have children.
Therefore, there is almost no new blood in the entire Nanhe.
"Why not?"
He Qin touched Lu Xiaobai's belly and said, "Isn't there one here?"
Lu Xiaobai: ???
He looked up in surprise: "You, what do you mean, I, our child, will be raised by Big Brother?"
He Qin also didn't want to be separated from his family, but if he wanted to evade responsibility, then their child would have to bear the responsibility, so...
He Qin nodded: "Yes, didn't you just say that my eldest brother and his wife are old and have no one to take care of them? Then, how about we give birth to a child for him?"
"No……"
Lu Xiaobai wanted to say that it was not a good idea, but he suddenly remembered that he would ask the main system for a wish to leave in the early spring of next year.
Before, he could still imagine that the system could take him away from here, and maybe even take He Qin with him. Now that he has a child, can the system take three people back?
Thinking of this question, Lu Xiaobai instantly became depressed, because for some reason, he always felt that he was daydreaming.
Seeing him suddenly depressed, He Qin hugged him and said, "If you don't want to let him go, forget it. Just keep him by your side and I can teach him myself."
Lu Xiaobai shook his head: "No..."
It’s not that I’m reluctant, but also not that I’m willing to give up.
It was a feeling that he found difficult to express.
But fortunately, his child has not been born yet and he has not had much contact with the child, so it is not really true to say that he is reluctant to let go.
But he also knew that if he left here and couldn't take the child with him, the child would have to be raised by his eldest brother.
So, he nodded and whispered, "I think I can give it to my eldest brother to raise."
He Qin didn't know why Lu Xiaobai suddenly changed his mind, but everything was in his plan, which made him feel inexplicably good. He curled his lips and said, "Okay, then, let's have another child."
Have another one?
I want another one before the first one is even born!
Lu Xiaobai immediately pushed He Qin away and kicked him in the waist: "You're dreaming!"
Lu Xiaobai played with He Qin for a while and then fell asleep again. When he woke up again, it was already dawn.
Lu Xiaobai was woken up by the heat. He got up and sat on the edge of the bed. He took a fan and opened his clothes to fan his chest a few times. "Why is it so hot today?"
It wasn’t this hot in the past few days, and he was woken up by the heat.
Lu Xiaobai put on his shoes, tidied his inner clothes and wanted to go out, but after thinking about it, he came back and put on his outer clothes to avoid being scolded by He Qin later.
Lu Xiaobai was still a little uncomfortable. After all, this place was a little unfamiliar. Lingyi and the others were not there, and He Qin didn't know where he had gone. When he went out, he only saw his sister-in-law turning over and drying herbs in the yard.
Lu Xiaobai walked over curiously and called out obediently, "Sister-in-law."
The eldest sister-in-law put down what she was holding and turned around: "You don't have to call me sister-in-law. My last name is Pei, and my given name is Qian Ce. Just call me Brother Qian Ce. Are you hungry? I left some porridge for you. Go and eat it."
"Ah, Qian, Qian Ce brother?"
Pei Qiance?
Lu Xiaobai touched his head. Why did this name sound familiar to him?
But he couldn't remember it for a while, so he followed Pei Qiance to the kitchen helplessly and found a big bowl of white porridge. The porridge made his stomach bloated. Lu Xiaobai felt that he couldn't finish it, so he took a bowl and scooped out half of it with a spoon to eat.
Pei Qiance was a man, accustomed to living in the mountains, and forgot that his brother had a small appetite. He smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "Sorry, I forgot you couldn't finish it."
Lu Xiaobai shook his head: "It's okay, the porridge cooked by Brother Qian Ce is so fragrant, even better than the one at my house."
It was the same white porridge, but Lu Xiaobai didn't understand why the one cooked by Brother Qian Ce was more fragrant.
Pei Qiance smiled and said gently, "If you like it, get up early tomorrow and I'll teach you."
"Okay, thank you, Brother Qian Ce. By the way, where is He Qin?"
The white porridge was delicious, but he wanted to know where He Qin had gone.
Pei Qiance looked out the window and said, "I received your letter yesterday. Your eldest brother went hunting in the mountains, but he was unlucky and didn't catch anything. Today, the two brothers went together."
As soon as Pei Qiance finished speaking, footsteps were heard outside the door. Lu Xiaobai quickly finished the last mouthful of porridge and ran out to see. Sure enough, he saw He Qin coming back with a beautiful pheasant in his hand.
"He Qin!"
Lu Xiaobai ran over happily, his eyes fixed on what he was holding: "Your chicken is so pretty, its tail is so long."
He Qin looked down and then smiled, "Well, it's a male pheasant, so it's naturally beautiful. It's a pity that it died. I'll make some soup for you later."
Lu Xiaobai nodded happily: "Okay."
As he was speaking, he saw out of the corner of his eye that He Chong was also carrying something in his hands and a basket on his back. The calm man threw the game aside, carefully took off the basket and placed it in front of Pei Qiance, saying, "I saw the gallnuts and brought them back for you."
"Thank you, Brother Chong. Go and have a rest. I'll take care of the rest."
He Chong nodded: "Okay."
Lu Xiaobai looked into the backpack curiously and found some - fruits?
Lu Xiaobai's eyes lit up, and he even wanted to go up and order some to eat.
But He Qin raised his hand and knocked on his forehead, then pulled him into the kitchen.
Lu Xiaobai was suddenly dragged into the kitchen. He covered his forehead and said dissatisfiedly, "Why did you hit me?"
He Qin put down the pheasant and said helplessly: "You want to eat everything you see. That's not a fruit, it's medicine. You can't eat it."
"medicine?"
Lu Xiaobai seemed to have thought of something and subconsciously asked, "Is Ling Si also surnamed Pei?"
"Well, he is my eldest sister-in-law's third brother."
He Qin said calmly, "They are all imperial physicians."
Brothers?
No wonder he said Qian Ce’s name sounded so familiar, it turned out that he was Ling Si’s brother.
Lu Xiaobai suddenly realized: "Then you are really bad. A family kidnapped two sons, and their father didn't blame you."
He Qin looked at him, slowly raised his hand, and made a gesture of tapping his forehead again.
Lu Xiaobai quickly covered his forehead and wanted to run away, but he saw He Chong coming in. He stood up straight and quietly returned to sit next to He Qin.
He Chong walked to the stove, put water in it and lit the fire, intending to boil some water for a while to use for processing the pheasant.
He Chong said as he was lighting a fire: "I want to think about it for a while."
Lu Xiaobai: ???
What are you thinking about?
Lu Xiaobai was confused, but He Qin took over and said, "Xiaobai is going to give birth between the end of this year and the beginning of this year. I can't leave him alone and go back to the imperial city. Brother Huang, please help me."
He Chong paused and said nothing.
He Qin continued, "The food issue has been resolved. I've also abolished the ancestral rule that the Feng family must produce a queen. After you left, your mother was deeply regretful. So if you go back now, no one will force you to marry. Moreover, the first son Xiaobai and I have will also... be adopted by you."
He Chong looked up in surprise when he heard about the child. He looked at Lu Xiaobai with some disbelief, then asked, "Did my sister-in-law agree?"
Adoption?
Although Lu Xiaobai had no feelings for the child, he still felt a little reluctant when he heard this word. However, for the sake of the future and for He Qin not to leave him, he nodded cruelly and said with trembling teeth: "I, I agree."
