The hunter's husband is so sweet
Chapter 80 Qi Yue was almost teased
In order to avoid being teased, Lin Chen changed the subject, "Then I'll take a few more pieces to embroider this time? I don't have anything to do on weekdays anyway."
Meng Ge'er shook his head and said, "You can take six pieces back this time. This thing is precious only when it is rare. If you have too many, they will be worthless." Lin Chen thought about it, understood the reason, and nodded.
After taking the handkerchief, Qi Yue was about to go straight back to the reception building, but he said he wanted to go to the jewelry shop. He wanted to buy a pair of earrings for his mother. He had saved up his pocket money for several months, plus the money his brother secretly gave him, and he had saved up almost ten taels of silver.
Lin Chen also wanted to go and take a look. He had always wanted to give Qi Xuan a gift in return for the jade hairpin he gave him last time, but he didn't have enough money saved. This time he had ten taels of silver at once, so in addition to buying a gift for his brother, he could also buy Qi Zheng a headband.
As they talked, they walked towards the jewelry store, but they didn't expect to be spotted on the way. It wasn't that Qi Zheng didn't notice, but the man was drinking tea on the second floor of the teahouse, and when he saw a boy running over, his attention was attracted.
That's right, it was Qi Yue who ran over. Since the family became wealthy, they were no longer as tight-fisted as before. Qi Xuan also always sent them some clothing materials, so now when they went out, they didn't wear silk or satin, but they didn't wear coarse linen either.
Qi Yue was wearing the ready-made clothes that Qi Xuan bought for him last time. He was wearing a bamboo green dress and a headband of the same color. There was a little rabbit embroidered by Lin Chen on the end of the headband. He looked just like someone's little lord who had sneaked out to play.
The man was originally drinking tea and listening to music idly, but he was attracted by Qi Yue. After watching him enter the cleaning shop, he also left the teahouse and followed him in.
Lin Chen and Qi Zheng followed behind, and Qi Zheng also kept a close eye on his brother, fearing that he would disappear without a second thought. Seeing him enter the shop, he felt relieved and said to Lin Chen, "Xiao Chen, you go too. I'm going to buy some food. It's been raining for a long time and there are wild beasts entering the village. We are out of food at home. Xiao Xuan is also dead. I guess there is nothing left after being eaten by the villagers."
"Okay, then come find us after you buy it." After saying that, he went in to find Qi Yue. He frowned as soon as he entered, thinking something was wrong. Qi Yue was choosing earrings for her godmother, while someone on the other side kept looking at him, and his eyes were not serious at all.
Lin Chen stood next to Qi Yue calmly, trying to block the man's gaze, but he forgot that he was also a boy. The man was even more happy when he saw another person coming, and he even said some obscene words without restraint.
Qi Yue could tell something was wrong even if she was not very sensitive. Seeing Lin Chen's face looking unhappy, and hearing someone not far away saying these vulgar words, she was furious and wanted to rush up to that person to argue with him, but was stopped by Lin Chen, "You really have no taboos. What are you going to say to them, little brother? Just stay still."
Qi Yue stared at Lin Chen blankly, and suddenly laughed, "You look a bit like my sister-in-law now." Lin Chen's ears turned red.
Seeing that the two boys ignored him, he did not feel frustrated, but became more interested. He actually walked over and said, "I don't know what the two beauties like. Do you need your brother's help?"
Lin Chen frowned, unwilling to pay attention to this person, thinking that he probably couldn't buy anything today, so he wanted to take Qi Yue away. But he didn't expect that the man blocked his way, "My beauty, we're just chatting, there's no need to be so defensive."
Unable to avoid it, Lin Chen spoke up, "We are just here to take a look. We don't know you and there is nothing to talk about. Please move aside. We are leaving."
"The beauty is not only beautiful, but also has a nice voice." The man teased. "It's easy to get to know each other just by talking. I wonder if the two beauties can get married."
Seeing that this person was getting more and more shameless, Qi Yue couldn't help but said, "Where did you come from, you filthy scoundrel? What do you care who we are? Can't you see that I don't want to talk to you?"
"Oh, she's a hot-tempered one." The man became more interested when he saw Qi Yue like this. The servant behind him also laughed and sweared at the man. "Master, I like hot-tempered girls like this."
The shopkeeper saw that things were about to get out of hand and stepped forward to smooth things over. "Sir, you cannot choose your own items when you visit our store. Please take a seat. I will ask the waiter to serve tea and bring all the new items to you for you to choose." As he said this, he wanted to ask the man to leave.
But the man didn't buy it. His face darkened and he said to the shopkeeper, "Get out of here. Do you have the right to speak?"
Lin Chen watched him talking to the shopkeeper, and rushed out with Qi Yue, wanting to go to the grain shop to find Qi Zheng. Unexpectedly, the man reacted quickly, rushed out with his servants, and surrounded the two of them.
"My little beauty, don't be in a hurry to leave. Brother hasn't finished talking to you yet." The fan in his hand was about to reach Qi Yue's chin.
"What are you doing!" Qi Yue turned around and knocked the fan to the ground.
"My little beauty, I spent a lot of money on this fan. You just knocked it to the ground like that. Isn't it a bit..." The man looked Qi Yue up and down, as if he had already started thinking about something dirty.
Lin Chen protected Qi Yue behind him, "You tell us the amount, and we will compensate you. My husband is nearby."
After hearing this, the man laughed instead, "My little beauty, I am not blindly brought up. I will not just follow your instructions. But... since you said you want compensation, then give me one thousand taels of silver. If you can't give it..." He looked up and down at Lin Chen and Qi Yue, and said, "You two can compensate me as well."
"You asked for 1,000 taels for a broken fan. You are clearly extorting money." Qi Yue's face turned pale. There were also people gathered around them, but no one dared to go out to help them. A kind-hearted lady whispered behind them, "This man is Mr. Li's nephew. Since he came to the town, he has been stealing things or teasing people every day. You two...ah." She also shook her head helplessly.
Meanwhile, Qi Zheng, who had just bought food, arrived at the jewelry store but couldn't find anyone there. He was also anxious. He asked the shopkeeper if he had seen the two young men coming in. The shopkeeper pointed to the place where a group of people were gathered not far from the door. "The two young men came to the store to pick things, but they didn't want to be noticed by that lecher, who flirted with them..."
Before the shopkeeper finished speaking, Qi Zheng had already rushed out, pushed through the crowd, and saw his brother and Xiao Chen standing there with pale faces. He rushed over to protect them behind him and asked in a cold voice, "I don't know how my family offended this young master."
The nephew of Mr. Li didn't take Qi Zheng seriously either. He was followed by a servant. He pointed at Lin Chen and the others with his chin, "I asked with good intentions, but they actually knocked my beloved things to the ground and refused to compensate me. What do you think we should do?"
Qi Yue was about to cry, grabbing his elder brother's sleeve, "Brother, he lied to us. He was rude first, then said that he wanted one thousand taels for the broken fan, and if we couldn't give it to him, he would snatch it away from us."
"Brother Zheng, he is the nephew of Mr. Li." Lin Chen was also a little scared, but still protected Qi Yue tightly.
Seeing that they did not move, Mr. Li's nephew signaled to the servants behind him, "Bring those two beauties to me. Man, give me one thousand taels and I will let them go." After saying that, the two servants behind him were about to move forward.
"Who dares!" An angry roar came from outside the crowd, and the crowd automatically made way, revealing a strong man holding a wooden stick standing there.
