Chapter 109
That couple in the river last night?
As soon as He Qin asked this question, Lu Xiaobai stopped crying. He turned around with tears in his eyes and a confused look on his face.
The couple had already walked away. Lu Xiaobai didn't see anything and asked in disbelief, "Really?"
He Qin nodded: "Well, didn't you hear that guy call his husband Third Brother?"
"Okay, I think I heard it."
Lu Xiaobai stopped crying, and the people behind stopped fighting, and the ox cart slowly set off.
Lu Xiaobai's mind instantly returned to last night. He couldn't distinguish tones, so he thought for a long time before asking, "This, this isn't right. Last night, that man said 'I miss you so much'. Those words don't sound like a serious person. And, if they're a couple, they're together every day. How could they say that?"
He Qin: ...
Although He Qin didn't know why, he was sure that both the voice and the address were those of the two people from last night.
If he had to find a reason, he thought for a moment and said, "He just mentioned the children. Maybe he has children at home and is worried about disturbing them, so he can't do anything intimate. That's why..."
When He Qin was halfway through his words, Lu Xiaobai blushed: "Don't say anymore, I understand."
He wiped the tears from his face and said helplessly: "I didn't expect that he was not a cheating man, but, but he said that his child has no milk, milk..."
Lu Xiaobai subconsciously covered his chest: "I, I, I don't want to..."
That's too scary!
Lu Xiaobai was completely stunned. He had never thought that the people here, no, the guys here, besides being able to get pregnant, could also produce milk?
Lu Xiaobai was speechless for a moment. He leaned on He Qin's chest and asked Xiaobaicai in his mind: "Xiaobaicai, come out here. What is going on? Why can I get pregnant and have milk?"
Xiao Baicai laughed awkwardly a few times: "Hehehe, well, I'm not really sure about this either. I'm just a system, and I complete tasks just like you~"
Lu Xiaobai cried and said, "Bad system, then, then tell me, why am I here?"
He seemed to have never asked Xiao Baicai about his time travel, but when he suddenly asked her today, he was actually looking forward to Xiao Baicai's answer.
But Xiao Baicai was stunned for a moment, then hesitantly said, "I do know this, but I can't tell you now. Wait until next spring when you have people plant the seeds and the planting system is fully upgraded, then I can tell you."
"Why?"
Why can't I say it now?
Lu Xiaobai was confused. Xiaobaicai said helplessly, "Because the main system said that telling you might affect your mood, so I won't tell you for now."
Lu Xiaobai: ...
Lu Xiaobai was very anxious: "Then, what should I do about giving birth and producing milk?"
He's a man. Giving birth to a child is already unacceptable, and now he has to produce milk. He almost wants to kill himself...
[Hmm... The main system says that many men can't handle childbirth, so we have a pain-free candy. After taking it, you won't feel any pain no matter how many children you have. One candy lasts forever. Do you want one?]
Lu Xiaobai: "...Pain-free candy, what the hell is that? Doesn't it hurt no matter how many babies you give birth to? Then, will you still have milk?"
Yes, after eating it, childbirth will be easy and painless. However, there will still be milk. The sugar only relieves the pain, and it only relieves the pain of childbirth.
Is this possible?
Lu Xiaobai felt unwell. He looked down at his stomach and sniffed helplessly.
He's due to give birth in a few months. If he doesn't eat this candy, will he die in pain?
Moreover, although there will still be milk, it would be great if it could be pain-free.
Finally, Lu Xiaobai gritted his teeth and asked for a candy.
After Lu Xiaobai made his decision, the candy instantly appeared in his mouth. It was very sweet and fragrant, and it tasted like strawberry.
Lu Xiaobai narrowed his eyes instantly, and while eating the candy, he muttered softly: "It's actually strawberry flavored, quite delicious, hehehe..."
He Qin: ???
What happened? The little boy just now suddenly lay in his arms and cried, and then stopped crying and started laughing again?
Could it be that he was shocked by his ability to produce milk?
He Qin lowered his head and smelled a very fragrant scent, a scent he had never smelled before.
Moreover, the boy's mouth kept moving, and the fragrance seemed to come from his mouth.
He Qin was very curious. He raised his hand and pinched his chin, forcing him to look up and asked, "What are you eating?"
Lu Xiaobai quickly shut his mouth and shook his head in panic: "No, I didn't eat anything..."
He Qin knew that Lu Xiaobai could always come up with a lot of things out of thin air.
So He Qin didn't find it strange that there was such a delicious taste in his mouth now, but he felt a little uncomfortable because this guy actually lied to him.
After thinking for a while, he lowered his head slightly and kissed Lu Xiaobai on the lips.
He Qin hugged Lu Xiaobai with one hand and pinched his chin with the other hand, and forcefully pried his mouth open, only then could he see clearly that there was a candy in his mouth.
He reached in, pulled out the candy and put it in his mouth.
Lu Xiaobai:!!!!
"Xiaobaicai, Xiaobaicai, He Qin ate this candy, is he okay?"
Xiao Baicai: [Host, don't panic. This candy only works for you. For others, it's just like ordinary candy.]
Lu Xiaobai: ...
Lu Xiaobai was speechless when He Qin spoke up: "How sweet."
Lu Xiaobai's face turned red instantly, and he lowered his head without saying a word.
He Qin smiled helplessly and said, "What is this taste like? I've never tasted it before."
Lu Xiaobai also liked the taste very much. He also wanted to hold it in his mouth for a while longer. After all, he hadn't tasted these flavors for a long time. But this candy was problematic after all. Although Xiaobaicai said that it would not work on other people, he was still worried.
So he shook his head and said, "This tastes like strawberry. You don't have any strawberries here, so it's normal that you haven't eaten it before. But you can't eat this. Only I can eat it."
Looking at Lu Xiaobai's pouting face, he said helplessly: "Okay, I won't eat candy, but I'll eat you, okay?"
Lu Xiaobai: "Hmm?"
What did He Qin say?
Before Lu Xiaobai could react, his chin was pinched and his mouth was blocked...
Ling Er in the car behind watched the whole process intently, and finally said enviously: "I want to get married..."
Zero Four: ...
——
When he arrived in town, Lu Xiaobai was dumbfounded.
Because the town now is completely different from before.
The first few times he came to the town, there were people on the streets, some selling all kinds of food, such as steamed buns, sesame cakes, candied haws, and there were also restaurants, etc.
But now, the only things sold on the street are wild vegetables and game, and they are very few. There are almost no small food stalls, and even the restaurants are closed.
Lu Xiaobai stared at all this in a daze, and turned back in disbelief: "He Qin, what should we buy?"
He Qin certainly knew what Lu Xiaobai was expecting, but there was nothing he could do now. The streets would be like this for at least the next two months.
Moreover, their purpose of coming is...
He Qin mercilessly reminded him: "Buy a pot."
Lu Xiaobai pouted and said with a tearful look on his face, "Buy a pot...but, but don't you have anything else? I want some snacks!"
His mouth was bland and he wanted to eat some snacks to stimulate his taste buds.
Eating light food before traveling through time is a pleasure, but eating light food after traveling through time is a torture.
He felt like he couldn't bear it any longer!
He Qin also felt sorry for him, but there was nothing he could do now. Everyone was short of food, and it was normal to have no snacks.
He touched Lu Xiaobai's head and said, "Be patient for now. The corn will bloom in a while, and after it blooms, it will grow corn. It will be harvested in a month. After the corn comes out, snacks will also come out. I will buy them for you then, okay?"
Lu Xiaobai knew that even if he wanted to eat, He Qin had no way to stop him. He couldn't make a fuss, but he was also sad. He could only turn his head helplessly and sulk to himself.
He Qin pulled him along, saying as they walked: "Don't cry. I'll roast some corn for you. Once the corn is dried, we can make popcorn. I'll add some sugar to it, and it'll be fragrant and sweet..."
There are many delicious things that can be made with corn, and He Qin told everyone he knew.
But the more he talked, the harder Lu Xiaobai cried. But normally at this time, shouldn't this silly boy be looking at him with anticipation?
He Qin asked in confusion: "Don't you want to eat?"
"think!"
Lu Xiaobai sobbed and replied, "It's because I want to eat so much that I want to cry. He Qin, I'm hungry..."
He Qin nodded: "Don't worry, look around, I'll buy you some food if there's anything."
Lu Xiaobai nodded and followed He Qin to walk through the empty streets...
Finally, they bought an iron pot, and with the copper coins given by the boy, they added more money to buy half a bag of rice at a high price, and also bought half a bag for Lu Xiaobai.
But Lu Xiaobai was not happy at all because the conditions were too difficult.
Fortunately, the old man in the store finally took out a handful of raw peanuts from the cabinet and said, "Look at this handsome boy. I'll give you these peanuts."
Lu Xiaobai looked at the peanuts in front of him in surprise, and then hurriedly thanked him: "Thank you, old man."
With the peanuts, Lu Xiaobai was very happy. He followed He Qin and ate them while walking towards the town entrance.
This time, I couldn't buy anything except iron pots and rice.
Even the rice was not what the shopkeeper was willing to sell because there was no more food. The shopkeeper kept enough for himself and closed the shop.
He Qin and his friends had to go to someone else's house to buy it.
The peanuts were quickly eaten up. Lu Xiaobai lay helplessly in He Qin's arms. His eyes moved from the gap between He Qin's arms to the rice bag. He was stunned for a moment, and soon pouted and said, "The copper coins he gave you can't buy so much rice. You actually gave him extra money to buy it. Do you have any feelings for him?"
He Qin curled his lips and said, "Of course not. His child should have been born not long ago and is still young. I am doing this for the child."
In times of famine, children are the most innocent and can easily starve to death.
He didn't want these things to happen, at least not where he lived.
Although Lu Xiaobai knew that He Qin only loved the people, he still felt a little jealous.
It felt like He Qin didn't belong to him alone, and that He Qin was not only good to him, but to everyone.
Especially, that guy was the same guy they listened to the live version of last night.
Lu Xiaobai pursed his lips in displeasure and said aggrievedly, "You talk as if you are the child's father..."
He didn't know why, but he suddenly wanted He Qin to be nice to him alone.
