Chapter 86
After hearing this, He Qin quickly tightened his arms and hugged the person in his arms tighter.
But Lu Xiaobai was still crying, which made He Qin panic: "Don't cry, I'm here, I will always hold you, don't be afraid."
Although Lu Xiaobai loves to cry, he has always been lively. Even when he cried, he had never been so desperate. Even when he knew that he was pregnant, he did not devastate like today.
He Qin felt so distressed that he held him and kept comforting him until Lu Xiaobai fell asleep again.
He Qin didn't even eat dinner. He just held Lu Xiaobai in his arms and didn't let him go until dawn.
It was not a nightmare, but it made Lu Xiaobai feel more uncomfortable than a nightmare. Even when he woke up the next day, he felt listless.
Moreover, He Qin, who had held him in his arms last night, was not around. Lu Xiaobai felt a lump in his throat and began to cry again.
But he was not an unreasonable person. Knowing that He Qin might be doing something else, he got up on his own and planned to eat.
He didn't eat last night and he is very hungry now.
Lu Xiaobai put on his clothes, sniffed, and just opened the door when he saw He Qin coming back with a basket.
Thinking of the difficult decision-making dream last night, Lu Xiaobai became angry. When he saw He Qin, he turned his head away, pretending not to see him, and went to the kitchen.
Today was different from usual. The reason his rice turned into porridge was not because he wanted to eat porridge, but because there was no rice.
They stored some rice for Lu Xiaobai, but if they wanted to eat it until the rice harvest season in September, he could only eat porridge to survive.
But only the two meals during the day were porridge, and the meal at night was still rice.
It’s just that it’s not easy to cook for one person, so just like before, Lu Xiaobai cooked all three meals together in the morning, and then put them in three bowls. He would heat them up before eating at mealtime.
Lu Xiaobai got up quite early today, and the porridge cooled down slowly, so it was not completely cold yet. It was still warm when he took it out of the pot.
Lu Xiaobai wiped her tears, took the bowl of porridge to the table, sat down and ate it in small bites.
He Qin put the basket at the door and walked in. Seeing that he only drank porridge, he brought him a bowl of vegetables from another pot.
It was cooked with the pheasant soup that was stewed yesterday. It smelled very fragrant and Lu Xiaobai's attention was attracted as soon as it was placed on the table.
Lu Xiaobai glanced at He Qin, picked up a piece of green vegetable and ate it. His depressed mood finally improved a little, but he still said unhappily: "Don't think that I can forgive you just because of a bowl of green vegetables."
He Qin: “??? What?”
What did he do wrong?
Why didn't Lu Xiaobai forgive him?
He Qin didn't understand, and Lu Xiaobai didn't say anything. They quickly finished their meal and planned to go out to bask in the sun.
He Qin hurriedly followed with the basket.
Seeing that he was carrying the basket, Lu Xiaobai was a little curious about what was inside, but he was too embarrassed to ask, and the basket was covered with a piece of cloth, so he couldn't see.
He sat on a small bench in the yard, glancing at He Qin from time to time.
He Qin placed the basket in front of him and gently lifted the floral cloth, revealing a small ball of yellow, furry...
Lu Xiaobai's eyes lit up and he laughed in surprise: "Ha, it's a little duck!"
Lu Xiaobai took the basket. The little duck was curled up and sleeping. When it saw that the cloth was gone, it looked up and quacked a few times.
He stroked the duck's soft fur, then took it out and placed it on his lap, saying happily, "Good boy, it feels so soft and comfortable to touch. How come you only have one duck?"
He Qin: "...It's a goose."
Lu Xiaobai:!!!
Hearing it was a goose, if this little creature wasn't so cute, Lu Xiaobai almost threw it away. He asked in disbelief: "Goose? You, you are not lying to me, right? Geese are so ferocious, how can they have such cute babies?"
He Qin knew that Lu Xiaobai was afraid of geese, but this was indeed a goose.
He hooked his foot over to a small stool on the side and sat down, then slowly explained to Lu Xiaobai: "It is indeed a goose. It was hatched from the goose that bit you last year. I bought one for you to play with. You can keep it as a pet."
Although geese are a bit ferocious, they can be as obedient as puppies if they are well-behaved.
But He Qin doesn't like dogs, and dogs can cause serious injuries, so he wants to raise a goose to keep Lu Xiaobai company.
But Lu Xiaobai didn't care whether it was a pet or not, because last year He Qin said that he would let the ferocious eagle be his pet, but the eagle disappeared within two days, and he didn't feel anything.
Hearing that the little thing in his arms was a goose, Lu Xiaobai couldn't even accept it. He immediately pouted and looked like he was about to cry: "Impossible, it's really a goose, I, I don't want a goose, geese bite, I don't like it..."
He didn't throw the goose away because it didn't look fierce, but he really couldn't accept raising it.
The scene of being chased and bitten by a goose last year is still vivid in his mind. He can't forget it at all. He is afraid and he doesn't like geese. He can even see the goose in his arms growing up and chasing him and biting him.
Lu Xiaobai was terrified. He picked up the cute little goose and placed it on He Qin's lap. He gritted his teeth and said, "I don't want it. I'll give it back to you!"
He Qin was just about to say that as long as the goose was raised from a young age, it would be as obedient as a puppy, guard the door, and bark to alert the family when strangers came, but before he could open his mouth, he felt something fall on his leg.
“Ga ga ga…”
The goslings quacked happily.
He Qin lowered his head and saw a pile of green feces on his leg. He almost slapped the goose to death.
Lu Xiaobai also saw it, and looked at He Qin's face again. He stopped crying instantly, covered his mouth and said with his hands, trying not to laugh: "I said, I said geese are not good, look at your pants, so disgusting hahahaha..."
Because geese are rectal animals, they eat and defecate at the same time, so they will keep eating as long as there is food, even if the food has already piled up from their stomachs to their mouths, they will still eat.
So he defecated quite a lot, and it didn't smell bad at the beginning, and he even defecated on He Qin's legs. Lu Xiaobai didn't feel disgusted, but laughed instead.
He carried the bench away from He Qin with disdain, and said with a smile: "Haha... let's see what you can do."
Being pulled by the goose on his legs, He Qin's face darkened, and he looked gloomy. If it weren't for the use of this goose, He Qin...
never mind!
He Qin threw the goose into the basket, got up and went back to his room.
Lu Xiaobai suddenly thought this goose was quite amusing. He patted its head and said, "You are so brave. You actually dared to pull He Qin's legs. Hahahaha, you are worthy of being a goose. I give you a thumbs up."
“Ga ga ga…”
The gosling didn't understand anything and just quacked happily.
Lu Xiaobai was worried that he would poop again soon, so he wanted to cover the basket with a flowered cloth. But before he could do that, he heard Lingyi ask, "Master Xiaobai, where did you get the goose?"
Lingyi, who came back with the corn seedlings, happened to see Lu Xiaobai touching the goose. Seeing that he was smiling happily, he wanted to talk to him.
Lu Xiaobai looked up and saw Lingyi coming back with a basket on his back. He quickly ran over with the basket in his hand: "He Qin gave this to me. Look, Brother Lingyi, isn't it nice?"
Although geese become a little unreasonable when they grow up and like to bite people randomly, they are still very cute when they are furry and have big eyes.
Ling nodded: "It looks good."
Lu Xiaobai nodded in agreement, looked at the goose and smiled, then turned and walked towards the kitchen while saying, "It's quite pretty. Well, let's keep it then."
And it was bought for him by He Qin. He should raise it and see. If it grows up to be as fierce as other geese and bites him, he will eat it!
This idea was great. Lu Xiaobai thought it was great and said happily, "I'll go find it something to eat."
Seeing Lu Xiaobai walking towards the kitchen, Lingyi quickly grabbed his arm and said with a smile, "It's a herbivore and will get hungry easily. You can give it some chopped cabbage. There's no cabbage in the kitchen, but there's one in the field. I'll pick it for you."
Lu Xiaobai was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile: "Okay, thank you Brother Lingyi."
He Qin changed his clothes and went out, just in time to see Lingyi let go of Lu Xiaobai's arm and turn around to walk towards the field.
He Qin felt a surge of anger in his heart. He quickly walked over and pulled the man into the room. He angrily slammed the door, pressed the man against it and said, "What are you doing arguing with Lingyi?"
He Qin suddenly lost his temper, leaving Lu Xiaobai completely bewildered. He had no idea what he had done wrong, and pouted unhappily, "What are you talking about? Brother Lingyi said he wanted to help me pick cabbages to feed the geese, and I..."
"You've never called me that."
He Qin interrupted Lu Xiaobai before he finished speaking: "You call everyone here intimately, but you keep calling my name."
"Hmm...ah?"
Yes, is it “brother”?
Lu Xiaobai blushed instantly, and his hands holding the basket felt weak. He, he could only call those names to people he wasn't close to, but he couldn't call He Qin. He...
“I, I…”
Lu Xiaobai's heart was beating fast, and his bright eyes looked around, but He Qin grabbed his chin so that he could only look at him.
He Qin: "Why?"
He didn't understand what Lu Xiaobai was thinking. In his eyes, people in love rarely call each other by their names. His elder brother did so, as did his father and mother.
So, he felt very uncomfortable. He wanted to hear Lu Xiaobai call him, but he didn't want Lu Xiaobai to call other men in the yard "brother".
“Ga ga ga…”
The gosling was hungry and quacked in the basket. He Qin snatched the basket from Lu Xiaobai, opened the door handle and put it outside, then closed the door and continued to block Lu Xiaobai.
Without the basket in his hand, Lu Xiaobai didn't know where to put his hands for a moment, and he was panicked. "What, why? Your name is so good, unique. I am the only one in the world who calls you like that. You know it's me the moment you hear it. And, and isn't being intimate with my husband not close enough? What else do you want to call me..."
If he called him brother, not only would he feel embarrassed, but he would also think of Feng An, which made him feel uncomfortable.
Moreover, his parents just call him by his name without any other name, and he is used to it.
He Qin: "Unique?"
Lu Xiaobai looked at him seriously and nodded obediently: "Yeah."
He Qin's expression improved a bit, but he still felt uncomfortable when he thought of Lingyi holding Lu Xiaobai's arm. He said with a sullen face, "You can't get too close to Lingyi, otherwise, I will remove him and replace him with a secret guard."
"Why?"
Lu Xiaobai didn't know what Lingyi was thinking, and said in confusion: "Brother Lingyi is doing very well, cooking, washing clothes, digging and plowing the fields, what can he do? And you are still not satisfied!"
Lu Xiaobai had no affection for Lingyi. He just felt that even in the modern times with high salaries, it was difficult to find such an excellent and hardworking employee, let alone in the ancient times where people worked hard for their lives.
So Lu Xiaobai felt that He Qin, as a leader, should not be too harsh.
He Qin: ...
Lingyi, who was outside the door, laughed helplessly when he heard He Qin's words, put the chopped cabbage in his hand into the basket, and then turned and left.
He knew that what his master said was actually meant for him.
He understands it all.
He Qin knew that Lu Xiaobai didn't like Lingyi, but when there was no danger, he still didn't like Lingyi to come into contact with Lu Xiaobai.
Lingyi should have heard what was said just now. Listening to the other party's footsteps going away, he touched Lu Xiaobai's hair and said, "Then just call me and I won't change people."
Call him?
Lu Xiaobai blushed, pursed her lips and called out awkwardly: "Um...husband?"
