Female-to-male: I live on farming

"The head of the family asked me to tell you that you can go directly to the government office to pick him up."

When the servant came to tell him, Lu Youqing had just finished breakfast with Li Nanqiao, and Li Nanqiao was still staring at Lu Youqing with some worry.

She only had a little porridge for lunch yesterday, and ran around without even having dinner. This morning, the breakfast sent by the people in the Gu Mansion was very rich, but Lu Youqing still couldn't swallow it.

It was not until the visitor said this that her gloomy face brightened up a little.

"Please tell Patriarch Gu that I would like to thank Patriarch Gu for his help."

"The head of the family said that there is no need to thank me. You are also aware of her request. She will come to verify whether what you said is true in the future." The visitor lowered his eyes and spoke in a flat voice.

Li Nanqiao actually didn't quite understand what Lu Youqing had exchanged with the head of the Gu family. She was confused by what she heard last night, but she was clear about one thing now, that is, the boss would be out soon.

She didn't have time to say anything, and hurried to harness the car. While driving, she sighed, "This Master Gu is really amazing. He got things done early this morning just as he said last night."

"The Gu family business has been developing for many years, with shops all over the place. It's not surprising that they must have some support behind them." Lu Youqing lifted the car curtain and looked at the hustle and bustle outside, saying lightly.

Li Nanqiao parked the donkey cart in a corner near the government office.

Lu Youqing simply lifted the curtain and looked straight at the door, waiting for the familiar figure.

She couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. It was not until now that she began to worry about how he was doing in there and whether he had been hurt.

She had been forcing herself to think about how to break the impasse, how to solve the problems at hand, and tried to focus all her thoughts on this. She didn't dare to imagine the situation Qin Ke was facing.

Only in this way could she stay calm. She never knew that Qin Ke was so important in her heart, so important that she couldn't imagine losing him. What should she do?

"Madam, the boss is coming out."

While Lu Youqing was immersed in his own thoughts, Li Nanqiao shouted in surprise.

With just one glance, Lu Youqing felt his eyes were a little sore. He who usually loved cleanliness and wanted to take a bath every day was now covered in mud, with a few pieces of straw stuck in some places, and dark traces of dried blood on the collar.

He walked forward, supported the limping Qin Ke with concern, and asked softly, "Are you injured anywhere else?"

Her voice was very soft, and her tone contained unspeakable worry and concern. Her eyes were also full of worry, and her brows were tightly furrowed.

"My lady, I'm fine, tear it——" Qin Ke wanted to smile at her, but accidentally pulled the wound at the corner of his mouth.

"Okay, stop laughing." Lu Youqing picked up the handkerchief and wanted to wipe the corner of his mouth, but she didn't know how to start, for fear of accidentally hurting his wound.

Li Nanqiao supported the other party and carefully sent him to the car, cursing non-stop: "Those government officials are such bastards. They arrested people without any evidence and beat them up like this..."

On the way back, Li Nanqiao tried to slow down as much as possible to keep the donkey cart stable.

When there were only two people left in the carriage, Qin Ke finally couldn't bear it anymore and hugged Lu Youqing into his arms.

"I'm very dirty, I shouldn't hug you at this time, but I just can't help it, I really want to hug you, it will only take a while."

His tone was like a child who had been wronged and went home for comfort. He wanted to cry, but could only shrug his nose to hold back the tears.

"It's okay, you can hold me as long as you want, let's go home." Lu Youqing hugged him back, not caring at all about the dirt and smell on his body, and her hands on his back kept stroking him.

She knew that he was different from ordinary men. He was careful, gentle and considerate, but sometimes very timid and didn't even dare to kill a chicken.

When they finally arrived at the door of their house, Lei Zhong and Han Qi were already waiting at the door after hearing the noise. There were even villagers following the donkey cart not far away and quietly watching the excitement.

"Han Qi, go and boil some bath water."

Li Nanqiao shouted at the two of them as soon as she jumped out of the car. She also knew that her boss was a clean person and the first thing he would do when he got home was to wash and change clothes.

Qin Ke loosened his hands and put away his weakness and tears. He could be his true self in front of Lu Youqing, but outside, he had to be calm and strong in order to steady the people below him and not let outsiders look down on him.

He got out of the car with a stern face, knowing that the news of his return would spread throughout the village soon.

Because the weather was hot, there was no need to boil as much hot water for bathing as in winter. Lei Zhong poured two buckets of hot water and the temperature was about the same.

"Go wash it first. I've put the change of clothes next to it."

Lu Youqing watched Qin Ke enter the bathroom, but soon saw Han Qi being kicked out by him.

"Madam, my husband said he doesn't need my service."

Lu Youqing pursed her lips. Usually, the masters of wealthy families would be followed by personal servants. Originally, she was worried that Qin Ke was injured and would be inconvenienced, so she ordered Han Qi to go in and help serve him.

But he was kicked out unexpectedly.

There are a lot of redness, swelling and bruises on the face, but what about those invisible parts of the body?

Lu Youqing stood up and stood at the door of the bathroom. After hesitating for a while, he let out a light breath and pushed the door open.

The bathroom was filled with hazy heat, and Lu Youqing could only vaguely see his naked back. He was sitting in the bathtub with his back to her.

She walked slowly forward, took the cloth hanging next to the bathtub and gently wiped his shoulders. Only when she got closer did she see that his naked upper body was covered with bruises.

"My wife?" Qin Ke, who had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly woke up. He raised his hand to touch the soft hand that had fallen on his shoulder. When he looked up, he saw tenderness and care in her eyes.

"What are you thinking about?"

Qin Ke lowered his head in disappointment and reflected: "I just suddenly realized that I am still too naive."

How could Lu Youqing not know this?

But she never tried to wake him up. She liked his innocence and would rather he stayed like this if possible.

But there are no ifs in this world.

"Don't think too much about it. Eat something after you wash. I'll find a doctor to check your injuries later." Lu Youqing untied his bun and scooped up a bucket of warm water to wash his long black hair.

Lu Youqing left after washing his hair. She came in mainly to confirm whether he had any serious wounds. After all, they were not a real couple yet, and such intimate actions were already her limit.

After coming out, Lu Youqing sent Lei Zhong to invite a doctor over.

Although they appear to be external injuries, I still have to see them to feel at ease.

Li Nanqiao knew that Qin Ke must not have eaten much during his time in prison, so the meal was very sumptuous.

"Thank you for your hard work." Qin Ke was surprised when he came out and saw the table full of food.

Li Nanqiao, who brought the last dish to the table, waved his hand and said, "I just made two dishes. The one who really worked hard was the Madam. She didn't eat much these past two days and was running around."

Qin Ke knew that Lu Youqing must have taken great pains to get him out. He looked at her and just held her hand tightly on her leg.

"Okay, let's eat first and talk about those things later." Lu Youqing chuckled and picked up some food for Qin Ke.
