Chapter 58
Lu Xiaobai's words always put He Qin in a good mood. Unable to hold back, he grabbed Lu Xiaobai's neck, pulled him over and kissed him on the face: "It doesn't hurt. I even want you to cry harder, on the bed."
Lu Xiaobai was already a little uncomfortable being kissed suddenly, and when He Qin said that, his face instantly turned red and he muttered softly, "Why are you becoming more and more of a hooligan?"
Before, He Qin was a hooligan, but he only talked about it, but now his actions are becoming more and more frequent.
And it’s still just the movement of your mouth, but the meaning is different.
Lu Xiaobai pouted and pushed him away, then went out while eating the egg white.
He Qin touched his lips which still seemed to have a soft touch, raised the corners of his mouth and slowly followed him out.
At lunch, just as Lu Xiaobai had thought, Feng An sat alone on one side, and Ling Yi and the others didn't dare to say a word. They ate quickly, trying to reduce their presence as much as possible.
Feng An's face looked very unhappy, whether it was because of the difficult decision, or because there was a bowl of brown rice in front of him that he had never seen before, and because he had such a delicate status, but he actually had to eat with the secret guards, which was something he could not accept.
He looked at the rice in Lu Xiaobai's bowl, his expression darkened, and he took a few small bites before pushing the bowl aside: "Feng An is full, brothers, enjoy your meal."
Lu Xiaobai looked at the almost untouched brown rice in Feng An's bowl and immediately became angry: "You can't eat that much, why don't you share it? It's such a big bowl of rice, you only eat a few bites and then give up, what will you do with the rest? Who wants to eat your saliva?"
Originally, Lu Xiaobai didn't care. In modern times, let alone such a small waste, he wouldn't feel anything even if a whole bowl of rice was spilled on the ground. He might even think it was dirty.
But things were different after he traveled through time. He understood how tiring farming was, and vaguely knew the so-called sufferings of the world. Especially when he knew that so many people did not have enough food, he was no longer willing to waste it.
If he doesn't want to eat or can't finish it, he will either not touch the bowl of rice or take an empty bowl and eat as much as he wants. He is not like Feng An, who only eats one or two bites of a bowl of rice and throws it away if it is dirty.
Feng An had always been pampered since childhood, eating only refined rice. This was her first time eating this kind of rice and she was not used to it. She felt wronged but dared not say anything. Now she was being scolded by Lu Xiaobai, and her eyes instantly turned red, tears streaming down her face: "Brother Qin, I, I..."
Lu Xiaobai glared fiercely: "It's no use calling him. I'll heat up the rest for you tonight and make dinner until you finish it."
He Qin almost spit out the food in his mouth when he heard this. He suppressed his smile and lowered his head, pretending not to see this "battle". He was only thinking about how sensible his wife was and how she knew how to save money.
Feng An looked at He Qin who was unwilling to help him, and cried on the surface, but cursed Lu Xiaobai viciously in his heart. He ate refined rice but forced others to eat brown rice. How shameless!
Ling Yi and the others quickly shoveled the last bite of rice into their mouths, put their bowls on the stove, and left quickly.
Seeing Feng An's tears increasing, Lu Xiaobai subconsciously said, "There's no point in crying. You have to finish what you made dirty."
Hearing this, Feng An looked up at He Qin, who was eating brown rice without changing his expression.
His nose felt sore and he couldn't believe how he could swallow such disgusting brown rice.
Feng An did not argue with Lu Xiaobai. She wiped her tears and tried to put on a flattering smile. She said to Lu Xiaobai, "Brother Xiaobai, there is no need to be so against me. I will leave early tomorrow morning."
"Leaving tomorrow?"
Lu Xiaobai was subconsciously stunned. It was only today and he was leaving tomorrow morning. That wouldn’t even be a day, right?
Lu Xiaobai bit his lip, trying to suppress the smile on his face, and said a little embarrassedly: "Actually, it's not necessary."
Feng An: ???
No need to leave?
Lu Xiaobai's words gave Feng An a glimmer of hope. As long as Lu Xiaobai didn't mind his existence, he would definitely be able to continue to stay with He Qin.
Moreover, as long as he can deal with Lu Xiaobai, the position of queen will still be his.
He Qin turned around curiously, looked at the silly boy beside him, smiled shyly at Feng An and said, "It's still early now. We just finished lunch. We don't have to wait until tomorrow morning to leave."
Feng An:!!!
He Qin tried hard to suppress his laughter, put down his bowl and touched Lu Xiaobai's thigh under the table.
Lu Xiaobai gave him a dissatisfied look and ruthlessly pushed his hand away.
Feng An was completely stunned.
In the imperial city, the Feng family is the most noble family, because all the queens of Nanhe, without exception, have the surname Feng, and Feng An is the most suitable candidate for the queen of this generation.
Therefore, whether in the imperial city or the palace, everyone respected him, even He Qin.
Even if He Qin didn't like him, he would never make things difficult for him. He was not as direct as Lu Xiaobai, who drove him away again and again without giving him any face.
But in this small mountain village, his identity is of no use at all.
Seeing him stunned, Lu Xiaobai reminded him: "Look, the sun is out today. The sunshine is so good that the roads are dry. You should take advantage of the early hours..."
"Brother Xiaobai!"
Feng An suddenly spoke, his voice hoarse and miserable, as if he had experienced something terrible.
Lu Xiaobai was startled by him and asked subconsciously: "What's wrong?"
Feng An stood up and walked to Lu Xiaobai, holding his hand and slowly kneeling down: "Brother Xiaobai, although it is still early now, the sun sets early in the afternoon, and it won't be long before it gets dark. Not to mention the long journey, I finally got to see Brother Qin, and I don't want to leave so early. Please, keep Feng An for one night."
Lu Xiaobai:!!!
Feng An's action confused Lu Xiaobai, and he subconsciously turned to He Qin for help.
He Qin said sullenly, "Put away your tricks. No one here wants to see you act."
Lu Xiaobai nodded in agreement: "Exactly, you should learn from Zhou Zhou. Although we are both younger brothers, you are far behind him."
"younger brother?"
Feng An looked up and asked in surprise with tears on her face.
Lu Xiaobai waved his hand quickly: "Stop talking, you don't deserve it."
Hearing Lu Xiaobai's words, He Qin sighed helplessly and finally understood why he was not angry. It turned out to be like this.
He Qin touched his forehead and said, "Okay, Feng An will stay tonight and leave early tomorrow morning. We will take you to town."
Feng An, who wanted to delay for as long as possible: ...
At that moment, Feng An was a little confused. Being escorted by Brother Qin personally, should he be happy or cry?
Brother Qin has never escorted him. He has been fantasizing about this day over the years, but he didn't expect it to come true now. However, he couldn't smile.
Lu Xiaobai was originally unhappy about leaving Feng An behind, but when he heard that Feng An would be sent to town tomorrow, it meant that they would go to town to play together tomorrow!
Lu Xiaobai smiled, ate everything in his bowl, and put it on the stove along with He Qin's bowl. He then pulled He Qin up and said as he walked out the door, "Okay, let him stay for one night. But brothers should be clear about the bills, so he has to pay for the accommodation."
He Qin nodded: "Yeah."
Feng An knelt on the ground. After being ignored by them, his eyes were full of hatred. This stingy country boy, if you have the guts, you should never return to the imperial city!
Feng An stood up with the help of the table, looking at the brown rice in his bowl that was still there, and he wanted to smash the bowl with a slap.
But with He Qin around, he didn't dare.
That night, Lu Xiaobai took He Qin to sleep on their previous bed. Although it was still small, it was much more comfortable than the bed outside the screen.
Lu Xiaobai snuggled in He Qin's arms, rubbing his head against him nostalgically and said, "The bed outside was so uncomfortable to sleep on. It's more comfortable here."
After what happened with He Zhou, He Qin clearly felt that Lu Xiaobai was becoming more and more dependent on him. He smiled and nodded, saying, "Well, after the New Year, we'll renovate the house and build two more rooms. One will be used as a guest room and the other as a warehouse. What do you think?"
Lu Xiaobai quickly said, "Of course, that way your family won't have any more relatives coming over and squeeze into one room, which will not only be poor and shabby, but also inconvenient."
He Qin: ...
He is not poor...
Feng An sat on the small bed behind the screen, completely stunned. He could imagine that this place was poor, but he didn't expect it to be so poor that there was not even a room to sleep in, and it had to be divided into two small rooms by a wooden screen.
Moreover, the bed was hard and small, and the room was dark and cold. He instantly regretted staying here. It was not as comfortable as his carriage.
But, but it was so dark now, he didn't dare to run to the carriage.
Feng An's eyes were filled with tears. Listening to the tender conversation inside, she couldn't help but shout: "Brother Qin, Feng An is scared."
When Lu Xiaobai heard this, he immediately hugged He Qin tightly, then turned around and said unhappily: "You have grown up and can sleep alone. You can't rely on your brother."
Feng An: ...
Feng An gritted his teeth and cursed in his heart, "You damn brother! That's my fiancé, you stupid country boy!"
He Qin touched Lu Xiaobai's head, leaned close to his ear and said with a smile: "There is something I have to tell you."
After answering Feng An, Lu Xiaobai wanted to sleep. When he heard He Qin's words, he looked up drowsily and asked, "What's the matter?"
He Qin suppressed his laughter and stroked his back with his big hands again and again: "You might not be able to sleep if you tell me."
Lu Xiaobai closed his eyes: "Then let's talk about it tomorrow morning."
He Qin; "Feng An is not my brother."
Lu Xiaobai: ???
He opened his eyes and asked subconsciously: "If it's not your brother, then who is it?"
He Qin knew that Lu Xiaobai would be furious if he told him, but he still couldn't help but want to tell this silly boy, so that he wouldn't accuse him of lying in the end.
So he said helplessly: "She is the fiancée my parents arranged for me. If I stay at home, I will marry her as my principal wife."
"What????"
Lu Xiaobai jumped up from the bed in an instant: "If you want to marry him, what should I do?"
Seeing Lu Xiaobai jump up, He Qin quickly pulled the quilt over him and wrapped him up: "Don't worry, didn't I say I don't like him? I won't marry him. He Qin will only have Lu Xiaobai in this life."
He Qin's words calmed Lu Xiaobai down. He remembered that He Qin had explained this to him.
Moreover, judging from previous events, He Zhou and He Qin both dislike Feng An.
At that moment, the information he had learned in the past few days flashed through Lu Xiaobai's mind quickly, and he summarized the general situation.
That is, Feng An was engaged to He Qin, but she fell in love with He Qin's third brother, and even hired bandits to rob He Qin's goods!
This, this is a complete case of cuckoldry and murder of a fiancé!
