Chapter 9
Lu Xiaobai was really dreaming.
He was so frightened by Liu Yi, whose face was distorted with laughter, that he trembled all over.
This was the first time in his life that someone smiled at him like that. The smile was too disgusting and the eyes were too explicit. He wished he could tear him to pieces and eat him the next second.
Lu Xiaobai was very scared, but no one could come to save him in this desolate mountain and wilderness.
Until a figure appeared behind Liu Wen, it turned out to be He Qin, his nominal husband.
Lu Xiaobai quickly stopped sobbing and begged for help: "He Qin, He Qin..."
But He Qin acted as if he didn't hear anything and didn't even look at him. Lu Xiaobai burst into tears immediately: "Don't go, don't go, I'm scared, He Qin, save me..."
The next second Liu Yi disappeared, and He Qin appeared in front of him, grabbed his clothes and said that he was disrespectful to the emperor, and wanted to divorce him and send him to see the official.
Lu Xiaobai was so scared that he held He Qin's hand, begging and crying uncontrollably.
——
He Qin looked at Lu Xiaobai trembling all over, raised his other hand and touched his forehead, only then he realized that he had a fever.
He Qin's expression changed immediately. He quickly pulled his hand out of his arms and gently patted Lu Xiaobai's face: "Don't sleep anymore, get up!"
Lu Xiaobai shook his head, his eyelashes trembled slightly, and then he slowly opened his eyes. Because he was a little confused due to the fever, he had hallucinations when he saw He Qin.
What he saw was not He Qin, but his mother who had held him in the palm of her hand and spoiled him since he was a child.
The grievances he had endured in these three days were more than what he had endured in the past ten years of living in the current world. Now when he saw his mother, all the grievances overflowed from his chest and tears flowed out continuously.
He stretched out his hand with all his strength and called softly, "I want a hug..."
Looking at the tender little white hand in front of him, He Qin's heart beat rapidly. Surprisingly, he slowly reached out and gently held Lu Xiaobai in his arms.
The moment he hugged Lu Xiaobai, Lu Xiaobai seemed to release the pressure. In a semi-conscious state, he cried desperately and hiccuped.
He Qin patted Lu Xiaobai's back gently: "Don't cry, it will be fine, it's not a serious illness."
Zero Four beat up Liu Yi and the others before driving them away, and then quickly returned. However, he saw from a distance that there was no one in the yard. He guessed that Zero One and the others had already gone to the fields.
Lingsi was a little thirsty and planned to go to the kitchen to drink some water before going to work in the fields.
As a result, as soon as he walked to the gate of the yard, he heard crying inside. Thinking something had happened, he hurried to Lu Xiaobai's room.
When He Qin heard footsteps, he immediately pulled Lu Xiaobai out of his arms, put him on the bed and covered him with a quilt.
After being pushed away, Lu Xiaobai felt even more aggrieved, but he did not continue crying loudly. Instead, he fell asleep again, occasionally twitching with a breath.
Zero Four stood in front of the door and knocked: "Master...Brother?"
He Qin knew it was Ling Si when he heard the voice, and said in a deep voice, "Come in."
After hearing He Qin's permission, Ling Si pushed open the door. The room was not big. As soon as he entered, he saw his master sitting by the bed, frowning and looking at the person on the bed with some disgust.
He came in today, slowly stood up and said, "Let him see, don't let him die."
Ling Si nodded, half-crouched in front of the bed, and carefully pulled out Lu Xiaobai's wrist to check his pulse. After a moment, he put his hand back under the quilt and said, "It's okay. He was just scared and caught a cold. He'll be fine once the fever goes away. I'll go get some medicine."
He Qin nodded: "Go quickly, if you don't have enough medicine, go to town to buy some. If anything happens to him, we will be in trouble."
"yes."
When Lu Xiaobai woke up, his head still hurt a little, his body didn't feel well, and there was a bitter taste in his mouth. He sat up drowsily, and his stomach immediately started to growl.
I looked at the door. The light outside was very dim and it was getting dark.
Lu Xiaobai touched his stomach and pouted: "So they didn't ask me to eat all day? Soup is fine, I'm starving..."
Lu Xiaobai felt wronged and wanted to cry, but he had been crying for too long in the past two days, and his eyes were swollen and uncomfortable, so he forced himself to hold back his tears.
When Lingyi saw this scene as soon as he entered the room, he paused and almost dropped the bowl in his hand, but fortunately he had good skills and managed to keep the bowl steady.
Lu Xiaobai looked at the stumbling Lingyi curiously, and smelled a familiar smell. He sniffed and asked, "Brother Lingyi, what are you carrying?"
Lingyi was a little embarrassed. He put the bowl on the table and helped Lu Xiaobai sit down at the table. Then he said, "Brother specially asked us to buy this porridge made from refined rice. Sister-in-law, please eat it quickly."
"Porridge?"
Lu Xiaobai took a deep breath. For the first time, he felt that the bland white porridge was so familiar and fragrant. His eyes immediately turned red with emotion. After thanking him, he held the bowl and started to drink in small sips.
Lingyi: "Slow down, be careful of the heat."
He Qin stood outside the door, looked at the scene inside, snorted coldly, turned around and went to the kitchen, sat at the table with a gloomy face, and made the remaining three people afraid to eat.
Finally, Ling Er couldn't stand it anymore, holding the bowl and said tremblingly: "Brother, if you don't like my sister-in-law, why don't you give him to Ling Yi and let Ling Yi take care of him, in case he gets into trouble and the Murakami people cause trouble for us, then we have to go to the authorities, and then..."
"Shut up!"
He Qin looked at Ling Er coldly. Ling Er immediately lowered his head to eat. Ling San and Ling Si silently gave him a thumbs up: Warrior!
Lingyi came back with an empty bowl outside the door and gritted his teeth: This idiot actually wanted to kill me...
Lu Xiaobai was full and felt like going to the bathroom. He stuck his head out of the door and looked around. He found that they were all eating in the kitchen, so he sneaked to the field.
He has gone to the toilet in the field several times in the past two days, so he dared to go alone even though it was still light and no one was around.
But just as he arrived at the field, a strange man appeared outside the fence.
Frightened, Lu Xiaobai stepped back repeatedly and asked through the fence, "You, who are you?"
The man was carrying a bundle. Seeing Lu Xiaobai, he looked her up and down and said with a smile, "Xiaobai, why are you in the vegetable garden? This is your dowry. You were too anxious to get married before and didn't have time to buy it. Today we went to town to buy it and brought it to you."
"Marry, dowry, are you, the village chief uncle?"
"Yes, come here quickly, I'll carry it to the house for you."
The village chief walked inside while talking. Lu Xiaobai's face turned pale. He solved his physiological problem without caring about anything else and then hurried back.
