Chapter 4
The first time Lu Xiaobai ate this kind of rice, he felt very uncomfortable in his stomach. He sat in the yard, looking at the little ants on the ground with grievance, and missed his warm and spacious modern home.
However, the young master, who had been living a life of luxury since childhood, did not know how happy it was to have a bowl of brown rice with bacon in this era.
Ordinary people usually eat corn, let alone brown rice, it is difficult to even feel full.
But he didn't understand. His nanny ate better than this, and he really couldn't accept it.
Lu Xiaobai shed tears of grievance, and his nominal husband did not even come to comfort him. He even wanted to hit his head against his wall to see if he could return to the modern world.
Fortunately, Lingyi brought out a bowl of soup: "Sister-in-law, do you want to eat refined rice? Drink some soup first. Eating refined rice in a place like this will make people suspicious. After this period of time is over, I will ask my eldest brother to buy refined rice, okay?"
Lu Xiaobai nodded. Lingyi was so gentle and not ugly. Why did he marry He Qin when there were so many brothers in this family? Why didn’t he marry Lingyi?
He came to this place inexplicably and didn't want anything else but someone who could protect him and comfort him.
As for why men can get married and have children, he doesn't want to find out.
I took the bowl, whispered thank you, lowered my head and took a sip of the cabbage soup. It was light, but much better than brown rice and fatty meat, and it tasted very comfortable.
After finishing a bowl of soup, Lu Xiaobai's stomach was full. He wiped away his tears and said with a smile: "Brother Lingyi, you are so nice!"
Lingyi was stunned for a moment, and immediately felt the sharp and terrifying gaze behind him. The smile on his face froze immediately: "No, no, no, this is what I should do. And you can't call me brother, call me Lingyi!"
Lingyi was so scared that he was sweating profusely. After explaining, he quickly ran back to the kitchen with the bowl.
He Qin stood behind him, his face gloomy: "You are indeed a country bumpkin, you don't even know the most basic etiquette and morality!"
Lu Xiaobai: ???
What is propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame?
Did he just do something immoral?
He was clearly just thanking Ling and praising him in passing, so how could he have no sense of propriety, righteousness, integrity and shame?
This guy took advantage of the fact that he was a man and bullied him because he was an orphan and was driven out by the villagers!
Lu Xiaobai had already felt wronged after crossing over in a muddle, and now being scolded by He Qin, he finally couldn't help but stand up and cried angrily, "You bastard, you have no sense of propriety, righteousness, and shame!"
Lu Xiaobai returned to his room after he finished speaking and slammed the wooden door shut. However, the door had been in disrepair for a long time and fell apart after he slammed it...
Lu Xiaobai was stunned at the door. The next second, He Qin rushed into his sight. He stared at the door on the ground, gritting his teeth and cursing, "You loser!"
Lu Xiaobai had tears hanging in his eyes, and he looked very pitiful, but He Qin didn't show any sympathy and even scolded him.
Lingyi rushed over and separated the two of them: "Alright, alright, brother, calm down and go to the kitchen to have some tea first. Sister-in-law, you go sit inside and rest. I'll fix the door. Linger, come and treat brother to some tea."
As soon as Lingyi finished speaking, Linger immediately appeared and helped He Qin away.
Lu Xiaobai looked at Lingyi with grievance, and pouted: "It's not my fault, I didn't use much force, it was him who hit me..."
"Okay, I don't blame you, but sister-in-law, let me tell you, although my brother is a little arrogant, he protects his shortcomings and can't let go of his pride. You have to learn to be submissive. You have to call him husband, call him 'husband', understand?"
Lu Xiaobai refused and turned his head away, ignoring Lingyi.
He didn't do anything wrong, so why should he give in to He Qin?
Why?
As Lu Xiaobai thought about it, his face turned very ugly, because he had no money, no food, and no dowry. Marrying into the He family meant he would just eat for free. So, was it true that "when you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head"?
But, but He Qin didn’t give him white rice!
Moreover, even if he was not given white rice, he seemed to be at risk of being kicked out, so did he really have to give in to He Qin?
Lu Xiaobai lowered his head in disappointment, sat on the stool helplessly, and leaned on the table to watch Lingyi repair the door.
"It's over. The days ahead will be difficult..."
Woohoo, I really want to go home.
Lu Xiaobai lay on the table and fell asleep crying.
When he woke up again, it was already afternoon, and he was lying in bed.
He didn't have time to care about how he got to bed, because he was woken up by the urge to pee. His face flushed with anxiety, and he ran out of the bed barefoot. He found that only He Qin was gesturing in the yard with a branch.
Lu Xiaobai's feet were jumping anxiously: "He Qin, He Qin, I want to go to the bathroom, where is the bathroom?"
