Chapter 2
The surroundings were extremely quiet, and Lu Xiaobai's heart was in his throat, fearing that this husband was as vicious as those women. He was weak and frail now, and could not beat others.
Fortunately, the husband did not get angry. He stopped for a moment and then pulled him forward.
Until she entered the room, until she sat on the bed, until the veil was lifted.
When Lu Xiaobai saw her husband, she opened her mouth in disbelief, because this man was completely different from the woman she had just seen.
The man had fair skin, handsome features, a slender and well-proportioned figure, black hair tied up, wearing a red robe, and had cold, sword-like frowns. He was extremely handsome.
The man was also a little surprised, because Lu Xiaobai's eyes were swollen from crying, and the scarlet rouge was all over his face, ugly...
Seeing Lu Xiaobai crying, He Qin knew that the little guy was probably unwilling.
Because he had just arrived here with his family yesterday, and when he discussed with the village chief about staying here last night, he asked to marry his brother, and they got married this morning.
So, they didn't know each other.
Lu Xiaobai's wedding dress and rouge were the aunties' treasures. They were lent to Lu Xiaobai because He Qin paid five taels of silver as a betrothal gift and gave it to the villagers as public funds. She would have to return them in due time.
Although He Qin was unwilling, it didn't matter if he married a boy in order to stay.
Especially a silly guy like this one who cried all the way back home. He looks very timid and should be easy to control.
He frowned, and after a while he suppressed his temper and said, "My name is He Qin, and from today on, I will be your husband."
Lu Xiaobai nodded, the last tear in his eyes fell, and he said nervously: "My name is Lu Xiaobai."
He Qin still had a sullen face: "Well, you should take a rest."
After saying that, He Qin left.
Because the wedding was too hasty, there was no banquet and no drinking and toasting ceremony. He Qin just led the person into the room and lifted the veil, and that was it.
Everything is kept simple, so simple that there is no...
Lu Xiaobai's things were packed up and delivered last night, and now they are piled pitifully in the corner.
Lu Xiaobai stood up, looked at the red female robe on himself, and then looked at the mud house which was the same as the one he saw when he woke up, and almost collapsed.
He went out crying and found four tall men in the yard. He was so scared that he turned around and hid in the house.
After a while, I dared to slowly stick my head out and look outside. I saw four men weeding and repairing the house.
This is a small courtyard with only four rooms including the kitchen and the toilet. It has been abandoned. Even their wedding room was cleaned up overnight.
It would take at least two days to tidy up the entire yard, so the four of them were busy all the time.
After making sure there was no danger, Lu Xiaobai walked out carefully.
The house here was old and small, but the yard was very large. Three people were clearing the weeds and gravel on the ground, and another was laying tiles on the roof.
Lu Xiaobai stood on the ground in confusion. Although he already knew that he had traveled through time, he still couldn't accept the dirty and muddy scene.
The men didn't seem to notice he came out and were still chatting among themselves.
"There are five of us, and now with my sister-in-law, there are six of us. We've only been allocated three acres of land. How can it be enough?"
"What are you afraid of? At worst, I'll just have to open up wasteland. Besides, I don't really rely on farming for a living. What are you worried about?"
"Ah, sister-in-law, haha...are you...are you coming out to wash your face?" The man on the roof asked, holding a tile and trying not to laugh.
sister in law?
Are these all He Qin’s brothers? So many brothers?
Even though he was forced, they were family now after all, and these people shouldn't bully him.
Lu Xiaobai patted his chest to comfort himself. When he heard about washing his face, he was stunned for a moment. After crying for so long, his face did feel a little uncomfortable. He raised his hand to touch his face and found some abnormal redness on his fingers.
Not knowing what this was, he nodded in panic and asked quietly, "Where do I wash my face?"
Hearing Lu Xiaobai's words, one of them put down the work in his hands, took a bucket to the well beside the vegetable garden, drew a bucket of water and said, "Sister-in-law, come here and wash."
Lu Xiaobai ran over quickly. How could there be such a dirty thing on his delicate face?
After washing his face, Lu Xiaobai stood in front of the wooden tub and looked at himself in the water. Water was not like a mirror, so although he couldn't see clearly, he could still get a rough idea of himself.
His appearance, except for a red mole between his eyebrows, was no different from his appearance in the modern world. He looked to be seventeen or eighteen years old, about the same age as in his previous life.
She still looks like a spoiled porcelain doll, fair and cute, making people want to love and pamper her.
However, people in this world don’t seem to think so. Otherwise, they wouldn’t force him to marry He Qin regardless of his wishes.
He Qin came back from outside with two large bags in his hands. He didn't even look at Lu Xiaobai by the well, and turned straight into the kitchen.
The man who was reeling in the tiles on the house jumped down immediately, washed his hands happily, and followed He Qin in.
Lu Xiaobai stood there blankly, looking at the roof that was several meters high, and then at the yard full of rubble. The man just now jumped down so effortlessly. So, did the ancient people really know kung fu?
Lu Xiaobai wiped the water off his face, carefully walked around the gravel and ran to the kitchen, where he found He Qin sitting on a stool drinking water, while the man who had just jumped down was making a fire and cooking.
Lu Xiaobai appeared at the door, and He Qin looked up in confusion. At that moment, his eyes were full of amazement. He never thought that this young man would be so handsome after washing his face. He almost couldn't take his eyes off him.
"What are you cooking? I'm hungry..."
