Chapter 20
After saying that, he walked away holding the pomelo. He separated the pomelo into segments as he walked. When he returned to his room, he gave He Qin two segments and said, "These are for you."
He Qin looked at the three pomelo slices in front of him, then looked at the remaining three slices in Lu Xiaobai's hand, frowned and asked, "Where are the others?"
"I gave it to Brother Zero One. He has four brothers, so I gave him most of it."
Lu Xiaobai ate while saying, "But he's really amazing. He can do everything. He can cook, wash dishes, do laundry, farm, and do all sorts of life tricks. Is he all-powerful?"
Seeing Lu Xiaobai becoming more and more surprised as he spoke, He Qin was speechless.
Only you, Lu Xiaobai, would dare to praise another man in front of your husband.
However, He Qin was still very happy with the pomelo that Lu Xiaobai gave him, and quietly put it in his pocket.
After lunch, they prepared to set off. Lu Xiaobai, wearing thick clothes and holding a big bag, sat on the ox cart and looked around excitedly.
He was so happy that he thought he would be able to see the bustling market in the afternoon and was full of anticipation.
As a result, in the afternoon, the four of them settled down in a hunting shed deep in the mountains, and had no intention of leaving.
Lu Xiaobai instantly looked as if struck by lightning, staring at He Qin in disbelief. After a few seconds, tears rolled down his cheeks. He bit his lip and held back his tears for a long time before crying, "You lied!"
He Qin sat at the innermost part of the hunting shed. He looked up at Lu Xiaobai and asked, "What did I lie to you about?"
Lu Xiaobai was stunned and thought about it. He understood why He Qin lied to everyone and said he was going to find high-quality seeds.
And He Qin only said that he was going out for two days, and didn't say he was going to town, so, this was all Lu Xiaobai's own fantasy?
After understanding, Lu Xiaobai pouted in grievance, unable to say anything. He sat silently outside the hunting shed, not talking or going in, just shivering in the cold wind.
Lingyi couldn't understand why the two of them were angry again without even saying a word. He patted Lingsan with a headache and said, "Go out and catch some chickens. I'll go ask my sister-in-law what's wrong."
Ling San only wanted to fulfill his duties and did not want to know about the grudges between his masters. After hearing Ling Yi's order, he left directly.
Lingyi looked at He Qin helplessly and said, "Master, you..."
Before Lingyi could finish his words, He Qin took out two unpeeled grapefruits from his clothes and said, "Give it to him."
A smile instantly appeared in Lingyi's eyes: "Yes."
His master has finally come to his senses!
Lingyi happily took the food outside. Lu Xiaobai was hungry at the time, and seeing Youzi, he instantly became happy. He wiped away his tears and said gratefully, "Thank you, brother Lingyi."
"Um, this is..."
Lu Xiaobai nodded: "I know, you saved it, well, I'll just eat one petal, you can eat one petal too."
We had brown rice again at noon today. He wasn't used to it and only ate two bites, so he was already hungry. Now he was so happy to see the grapefruit.
But considering Lingyi left the delicious food for him, he generously gave a piece to Lingyi. Lingyi said: "Oh no, this is for my big brother..."
"Don't mention him, he's a liar."
Lu Xiaobai said angrily: "You've been out for two days and you're already in this kind of hellhole. I don't want to be in the same place with him, and I don't want to mention him. If you mention him again, we won't be brothers anymore!"
Zero One: ...
The pomelo could not save the master's image, not to mention that he had no way of saying that the pomelo was given by He Qin.
He Qin heard the conversation outside and kicked the heater in anger. With a bang, the heater broke into pieces, scaring the two people outside.
Lu Xiaobai took a bite of the pomelo, turned around, and asked Lingyi blankly: "Could it be that the back half collapsed?"
Lingyi clearly heard He Qin kicking the mud stove and breaking it. He wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Sister-in-law, Big Brother is a very good person. You have to be good at discovering things and not just look at the surface..."
"Stop talking. I don't even want to see it."
What's wrong with being handsome? It makes Lu Xiaobai seem unattractive.
Lu Xiaobai interrupted Lingyi and stood up to take a look around.
But it was almost dark now, and Lingyi was worried about Lu Xiaobai's safety, so he didn't allow him to go.
Not only was his fantasy of going to town shattered, but now he couldn't even go out and play around. Lu Xiaobai's eyes instantly turned red. He sat on the ground, sniffing his nose, and turned his head away, ignoring Lingyi.
Not only does this crappy place lack any entertainment to relieve boredom, but when you do get to go out, you have to stay in the uninhabited mountains, and for safety reasons you can't even walk around.
Lu Xiaobai cried out of grievance, but He Qin was still angry with him and ignored him even though he heard him crying.
Lingyi held his forehead helplessly, feeling angry inside and out. The other brothers didn't dare to get involved, so he, the good guy, was the one who suffered the most.
Fortunately, Lingsan came back in time with the processed pheasant. He had planned to roast it in the hunting shed, but as soon as he entered, he found that the heater inside was rotten!
Ling San looked at his master with a gloomy face in surprise, and retreated in a cold sweat. In order to prevent his master from finding any fault with him, he quickly found some firewood and roasted a chicken outside the hunting shed.
As usual, Lingyi poked the chicken with a needle before pulling off the chicken leg and passing it to He Qin.
Now that there was food, Lu Xiaobai was no longer angry. He wiped away his tears and sat happily in front of the fire, looking at the sizzling roast chicken. He actually wanted to eat first, but Lingsan looked more fierce, so he was a little afraid to make a move and could only wait for Lingyi to come back and share his share.
Fortunately, Lingyi was quick. As soon as Lu Xiaobai came out, he held the chicken leg and started eating with satisfaction. After eating, Lingsan even handed him a wet towel to wipe his hands.
"Burp~"
Lu Xiaobai accidentally ate too much and couldn't help burping. He quickly covered his mouth and looked at Lingyi. Finding that no one was paying attention to him, he sneaked into the hunting shed.
He Qin seemed to have fallen asleep, lying on the small bed with his back to the door.
In fact, it can't be called a bed. It's just a sturdy wooden frame with a few wooden boards. Lu Xiaobai knows how uncomfortable it is without even lying on it, and it's very small.
But it was already dark, and the hunting shed was small, with no place to sleep except a small bed and a stove.
He stepped out again and asked Lingyi: "Where are you guys sleeping?"
Hearing his question, Lingyi smiled and said, "We have to take turns keeping watch, so we won't go in. Just take a nap by the fire."
"Okay then, I'll go with you..."
Lu Xiaobai didn't want to get along with He Qin and planned to keep watch with them, but he was full and tired from the car ride, so he fell asleep in less than half an hour.
Just as Lingyi was about to help the man up, He Qin came out.
He Qin squatted down, held the pampered brother in his arms and returned to the hunting shed. He gently placed him on the wooden bed and wrapped him with a thin blanket.
Then he said to the outside, "Go to the mountains and see if there are any sweet fruits. Bring them to him tomorrow morning."
