Chapter 60
"I have some change too, look."
Hearing Lingyi's words, Lu Xiaobai quickly opened his clothes on his chest and showed him the copper coins hidden inside.
It is so bold and dissolute for a guy to suddenly open his clothes to show it to a man who is not even his husband.
But Lu Xiaobai didn't know about it yet, which frightened Lingyi so much that he quickly lowered his head and closed his eyes: "Sister-in-law, don't, this is against the rules!"
Although Lu Xiaobai is a boy now, in his heart, he is still a man after all. There is no need to avoid taboos between men, even in ancient times.
Seeing Lingyi evading like this, he looked at Lingyi with some disappointment. He also knew that there were some rules of this era that he could not resist alone, so he could only sniff and say, "No, I just wanted to show you the change I hid."
You are wearing such thick clothes, what can you see if you just pull open a layer of clothes?
Only then did Lingyi dare to open his eyes, and with a blushing face he looked at the clothes that Lu Xiaobai had opened. Sure enough, there was a string of copper coins hidden inside.
Lingyi breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to reach out to pull Lu Xiaobai's clothes up, but before his hand touched Lu Xiaobai, he heard someone around him say: "If I heard correctly, that man called him sister-in-law, this..."
"Forget about my sister-in-law. A man who, in broad daylight, openly opened his clothes on the street, is immoral and extremely dissolute. He should be punished!"
"That's right, how can I still have the dignity to live..."
Hearing this, Lu Xiaobai angrily put on his clothes, glared at those people with dissatisfaction, turned to face them, and pulled his coat hard, revealing a thick cotton coat and copper coins.
Those men and married boys scolded Lu Xiaobai for being dissolute, but when Lu Xiaobai pulled his clothes, all the men except the boys stared at him intently.
Lu Xiaobai deliberately winked at the men and said with a smile, "You guys are actually watching other guys taking off their clothes on the street. There's nothing going on, but you're so obsessed with it. Aren't your wives angry?"
The men were stunned, and so were the boys and women who followed them. Then they heard cursing and quarreling.
Moreover, although men are lustful, in ancient times, the weaker party was always blamed. Therefore, many women and boys chased after Lu Xiaobai and wanted to beat up the bitch who seduced men in broad daylight.
Lu Xiaobai was so frightened that his face turned pale. He dragged the frightened Lingyi and ran away: "Oh my god, run quickly, there are so many people, how can we defeat them?"
Lu Xiaobai was frightened. He didn't expect that just a simple action would arouse public anger. It was completely different from what he saw on TV.
On TV, even in ancient times, men were completely controlled by their wives. If they peeked at others, they would be pinched by their wives' ears and dragged away. Why are people here different?
"Beat that guy to death! He's even more dissolute than a brothel boy, seducing men in the street. Take him to the authorities!"
"Yes, immerse in a pig cage!"
"Pig cage?"
Hearing the words "immerse in a pig cage", Lu Xiaobai was so anxious that tears almost burst out, crying, "How could this happen? Why did they hit me instead of their men? I, I didn't reveal anything!"
As the two of them ran, Lingyi started to pull Lu Xiaobai, and their speed increased a lot. Lu Xiaobai was running so hard that he was gasping for breath and was almost being dragged along.
Hearing his question, Zero answered automatically: "They can't beat their own men."
"So they chased me and beat me, and wanted to kill me. I think they were just jealous of me, jealous that I was good-looking."
The two stopped in front of a store on the corner, went into the store together and hid behind the door.
Lingyi looked at his brother who was panting beside him and said, "Yes, I am jealous of you."
I'm jealous of your good looks and the money you have.
You know, when Lu Xiaobai opened his clothes just now, all that was exposed was money...
Lu Xiaobai patted her chest and pouted in dissatisfaction, saying, "My man is not obedient. Not only does he look around, but he also hits others. How shameless!"
Lingyi smiled and said, "There are two reasons why men can be subdued. One is because their family background is superior to theirs, and their wives are extremely fierce. The other is because men love them and are willing to be subdued. Big Brother is like that."
When Lu Xiaobai heard this, he realized that although He Qin loved to bully him, he had never been really mean to him or even hit him.
It's much better than those men on the street who get caught by their wives while peeking at other guys and then get angry and scold them.
Thinking of this, Lu Xiaobai immediately laughed: "So, He Qin is doing this because he likes me?"
Ling nodded: "Yes."
He Qin has never been so kind to anyone in his life.
Not even to He Zhou.
No matter how much he loves He Zhou, he is clear about rewards and punishments. Right is right and wrong is wrong.
Only occasionally, when there were some minor matters that were not a big deal, He Zhou would just act like a spoiled child and it would be over.
But He Zhou never dared to touch He Qin's reverse scale, let alone say anything outrageous in front of He Qin.
Lu Xiaobai did and said everything he should and shouldn't do, everything he should and shouldn't say. They should have dealt with it secretly, but He Qin didn't care, and even liked playing with him like that.
Seeing Ling nod, acknowledging that He Qin liked him, Lu Xiaobai's eyes were filled with joy. He opened his mouth to say that he was going to find He Qin, but he heard an old voice say, "This warrior is right. If a man is subdued by his wife, it's mostly because he loves you. So, little brother, do you want to buy some headwear for your husband who loves you?"
Lu Xiaobai turned around and found that it was an old man with pale hair, and this shop was also a headwear shop.
Lu Xiaobai touched the copper coins in his arms, and He Qin also returned the two taels of silver that he had taken from him before, so he was rich.
So she nodded and said, "Well, my husband is very handsome, tall and handsome. Can you recommend me some nice hair accessories that can match his?"
Lu Xiaobai didn't know anything about hair accessories. He only knew how to tie his hair with a headband, so he planned to ask the store owner to introduce some to him, and then he would pick the best one.
The shopkeeper saw the boy and felt that he was spoiled and must be from a wealthy family. When he heard him say that, his old face was full of smiles and he said quickly, "Okay, little brother, please follow me."
Lu Xiaobai followed the shopkeeper to choose a headdress.
Lingyi stood there, greatly stimulated by Lu Xiaobai's words "my husband".
Although Lu Xiaobai never said it, everyone knew that Lu Xiaobai liked He Qin.
But He Qin always bullied Lu Xiaobai, so except for some necessary needs, Lu Xiaobai never took the initiative to call He Qin "husband", let alone in front of outsiders.
Lingyi couldn't help but smile bitterly, sighed helplessly, and walked towards Lu Xiaobai.
Apart from other things in ancient times, the accessories were very gorgeous. Even the small accessories with an ancient atmosphere among the folk were deeply loved by Lu Xiaobai. After being introduced by the store owner, he was dazzled.
There were many items Lu Xiaobai wanted to sell, but he was worried that he didn't have enough money, so he only picked two hairpins.
One is a white jade hairpin, and the other is a silver hairpin. The head of the hairpin is carved with a auspicious cloud, which had a good meaning in ancient times.
But Lu Xiaobai thought that the jade hairpin was more fragile than the silver hairpin and could break easily, especially since they were still in the countryside. It would also not be good if others saw it, because He Qin did not want to show off his wealth.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "I want a silver hairpin."
Because jade hairpins are more expensive than silver hairpins, a hint of disappointment flashed in the shopkeeper's eyes when he heard this, but he quickly smiled and said, "That's fine too. This auspicious cloud hairpin is also excellent. I'll pack it up for you right away."
Lu Xiaobai nodded, feeling that something was wrong, and subconsciously said: "Wait, you haven't said how much money?"
The shopkeeper was startled, then smiled and said, "Not expensive, five taels of silver."
Lu Xiaobai: ...
Five taels of silver isn’t expensive?
This is several years of expenses!
Moreover, the hairpin he touched just now was not as heavy as five taels. Even if the cost of processing and carving was included, it would not cost five taels!
Lu Xiaobai turned back unhappily and wanted to ask Lingyi to think of a solution.
Lingyi understood and immediately stepped forward and said, "Three taels, if you don't want to sell it, forget it."
The auspicious cloud hairpin is a popular men's hairpin nowadays, so many stores have it and there is no shortage of it.
Although the shop charges a high price, the hairpins are of good quality, and with the carving and labor cost, three or two taels is just right, so he can still make a profit.
As soon as Ling Yiyi left the shop, the shopkeeper knew he had met an expert. Seeing them about to leave, he nodded quickly: "Okay, okay, don't go, don't go. Three taels is three taels, three taels."
Two taels of silver were missing in an instant. Lu Xiaobai was very happy and quickly took out the money. But when he took out the money, he remembered that he did not have enough money. He did not have three taels of silver.
Lu Xiaobai: ...
Seeing his reaction, Lingyi silently took out a tael of silver and handed it to him.
Lu Xiaobai's eyes lit up; "Thank you, Brother Lingyi, I'll lend it to you. I'll return it to you next year."
Finally, Lu Xiaobai bought the hairpin as he wished, hid it happily on his chest, and planned to go home and give He Qin a surprise.
But worried that he would be shouted at and thrown into a pig cage by that group of people when he went out, Lu Xiaobai asked the store owner for a black cloth, covered his head with it, and went to find He Qin with Lingyi.
During the time they were delayed, Feng An left, and 0304 had already bought everything, and this time there were more things than last time.
Lu Xiaobai stood in front of He Qin happily, but He Qin's face was not very good. He asked puzzledly: "He Qin, what's wrong with you? What did Feng An do to make you unhappy?"
Zero One and Zero Three turned around silently and pretended to pack up their things.
He Qin raised his hand and pinched Lu Xiaobai's face. He asked in a sinister voice, "What's wrong? I heard that there's a slutty guy who took off his clothes in the street to seduce men. Do you know this guy?"
When Lu Xiaobai heard this, he was immediately confused. How did He Qin know about this?
How did He Qin know it was him?
No, that's not right. There were no photos or videos in ancient times, and He Qin didn't see him, so he must be lying to him.
He Qin is so insidious!
If he wasn't smart, he would have been fooled!
Lu Xiaobai wanted to shake his head to deny it, but He Qin was pinching him so hard that he couldn't shake it off. He could only hold He Qin's hand and say loudly, "I don't know him. How could I possibly know another brother? Let me go quickly. My face hurts."
