Chapter 35 Encouraging Xiao Manjin
Seeing this, Xiao Li raised his eyebrows slightly, "Worried about me?"
Originally, Lu Yuan was very worried about him, but when she saw his expression, she was about to deny it when she saw him raise the small basket in his hand.
Lu Yuan subconsciously looked inside, and when she saw the snow-white fur, her eyes lit up even brighter, "It's a rabbit!"
Xiao Li was about to say, "If you like it, I'll give it to you to raise," but the next moment...
"But it's so skinny and has no meat. I don't know if it will taste good!" He smacked his lips and said, "How are you so awesome? You really caught some prey!"
Xiao Li: “…” He had so much to complain about.
Lu Yuan was really adoring him at the moment, and when he didn't answer, she moved closer and said, "This rabbit is so cute!"
"..." Cute, are you still thinking about eating?
Lu Yuan touched the little rabbit's head and asked, "Are you going to sell them?"
"I'm not selling it. I'm taking it home and letting my kids raise it for fun." After a pause, Xiao Li looked at him and asked, "Do you want to raise it?"
Lu Yuan couldn't think of any connection between him and the child, but when asked, he still shook his head and refused, "No, I don't have the time to raise rabbits, and I don't know how to raise them. It would be a shame to kill them. Maybe these rabbits can be sold for dozens of coins!"
Hearing this, Xiao Li chuckled softly, "So who's cuter, the rabbit or the silver?"
"Of course it's money!" Lu Yuan said without hesitation, "With money, you have everything!"
Sure enough, the little money-grubber loves money the most, and everything else means nothing to him.
After saying that, Lu Yuan saw him staring at her with a half-smile on his face, and couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed. "Why are you looking at me like that? Am I wrong?"
If it was the end of the world, Xiao Li would deny his previous words without hesitation.
After all, in a world where order has completely collapsed, things like gold, silver and treasures are not as valuable as a mouthful of food or a mouthful of water.
When famine strikes this world, gold and silver will also depreciate sharply in the disaster-stricken areas.
But now, it is still nearly three years since the disaster occurred in the plot, and things have not happened yet, and order is still running.
Therefore, Xiao Li nodded and agreed with him, "Yuan'er is right, if you have money, you can have everything."
Lu Yuan snorted lightly, lowered her head and continued to touch the rabbit.
After a long while, the young man reluctantly withdrew his hand and asked, "Are you going down the mountain?"
"Yes, I'm ready." Xiao Li went up the mountain to find living creatures for experiments. Now that he has obtained the desired results, he is naturally ready to go down the mountain, but...
He looked at the young man with a look of "Why so fast?", paused, and then continued: "But I'm not busy today, where else are you going? I'll go with you."
"Really?" Lu Yuan was a little excited, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up. "I plan to go somewhere else to pick some more mountain products, otherwise after the season is over, I won't be able to find them anymore."
As he spoke, he picked up his backpack which was half filled and was about to put it on his back when it was taken away. Then, the basket containing the little rabbit was stuffed into his arms.
He subconsciously looked at Xiao Li, opened his mouth, but did not refuse.
When my dad was around, I would carry the heavy things myself and let my little dad carry the light things.
But they haven't gotten married yet, and I'm not his husband yet.
The more Lu Yuan thought about it, the hotter her face became, and she quickly lowered her head to look at the road.
Xiao Li fell a few steps behind, his eyes fell on his red earlobe, and the smile on the corner of his mouth lasted for a long time.
Knowing that someone was gossiping about them, Xiao Li deliberately chose a road with few people when going down the mountain.
When he successfully sent Lu Yuan back to the Lu family, the little brother looked at him in disbelief, "How did you know that road led down the mountain? I run up the mountain every day and I didn't even know it."
"I discovered it by accident." Xiao Li naturally couldn't tell him that he found out by cheating with his strong mental power.
Putting down the backpack, he rubbed the boy's head and said, "Go back. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning."
"Oh, okay." Lu Yuan nodded subconsciously, then walked in carrying the backpack.
It's filled with mushrooms, black fungus and the like. It looks like a full basket, but it's actually not that heavy.
He had carried heavier things before, so this weight was nothing to him, so he walked quite easily.
After watching him go back, Xiao Li carried the five little rabbits and walked towards the Xiao family in the east of the village.
Unfortunately, he met his original body's second brother, Xiao Er Xiao Manjin, on the way.
Seeing him, Xiao Manjin's chubby face immediately wrinkled, "I heard that you and Youfu's cousin are that..."
Perhaps because he couldn't remember Lu Yuan's name, Xiao Manjin frowned even more tightly and said disdainfully, "That ugly guy. Are you getting engaged to him on purpose to disgust Youfu?"
Xiao Li: “…” I was speechless.
He had only one attitude towards the original owner's top relatives and predecessors from the beginning to the end -
It's best not to have any contact with each other until death.
However, whether it was the disgusting heroine or the fat white man in front of him, their actions were obviously contrary to his ideas.
Xiao Li was too lazy to deal with him, "If you are interested in Lu Youfu, just go back and tell your parents. They love you so much, how could they not agree to you marrying Lu Youfu?
And with Xiao Lao Er's family background, he should have already prepared money for you to marry a wife, right? Maybe he's just waiting for you to come to your senses and bring him a beautiful daughter-in-law.
Even if they don't agree, won't you go find Lu Youfu? You treat her much better than your own mother, so is she really going to reject you?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Manjin was shocked. He obviously didn't expect to hear these words from him.
More importantly, he actually felt that what Xiao Si, the coward, said made some sense?
In just a short moment, Xiao Manjin's chubby face had changed several expressions, and it seemed that he had taken his words to heart.
Seeing this, Xiao Li's eyes flashed with a dark light, and he continued to encourage him, "Lu Youfu should have accepted a lot of good things from you, right? I see that the clothes she wears recently are better than before, but..."
"But what?" After hearing his words, Xiao Manjin didn't care about his relationship with him and couldn't wait to ask.
Xiao Li pretended to be silent.
"But I think she's a little too plain. If she could wear some gold and silver, she would be even more dazzling.
Girls all love beauty, and I think they would not be able to refuse the tokens of love such as gold and silver jewelry.
I just don’t know who will be able to capture the beauty’s heart!”
Xiao Manjin's eyes lit up, and he turned away excitedly, muttering as he walked, "Yeah! Why didn't I think of that?"
Seeing this, Xiao Li's lips curled up in a playful arc.
It seems that both Xiao Laoer's family and the heroine's family will be busy in the future.
The next morning, Xiao Li went to the Lu family to pick up Lu Yuan.
It was still early when he arrived, but the young man was already waiting at the door, looking outside from time to time.
Compared to before, the little boy today wore a new set of clothes, his hair was smooth and neat, revealing a pretty face.
When he saw him, the boy's clear peach blossom eyes curved slightly, and he subconsciously wanted to run towards him.
After taking a few steps, the boy seemed to have thought of something, stopped, pursed his lips, and looked at him eagerly.
Xiao Li's lips curled up slightly, but when he approached him, the smile on his face was no longer visible.
The original person was over 1.8 meters tall, and the little boy was almost a head shorter than him. When he got close to him, he had to look up at him, appearing particularly obedient.
"How long have you been waiting?"
"Just for a moment."
Lu Yuan didn't have the nerve to tell him that she had gotten up early in the morning to wait for him, and was even laughed at by her little daddy because of it.
Xiao Li didn't say whether he believed it or not, but rubbed his head and asked, "Have you eaten?"
"No." Speaking of this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but touch his belly. Although he was a little hungry, he smiled happily. "Little Daddy gave me some money and told me to go to the city to eat. This time, it's my turn to treat you, but I can only treat you to meat buns!"
Xiao Li is not picky about food, as long as the taste is not too bad, it's all fine. Besides, the meat buns of this era are made of pure natural pork, which will only be more fragrant than those in later generations.
"It doesn't matter. I'm not picky."
"Really?"
Seeing the young man's suspicious look, he couldn't help but let out a soft "tsk".
"Why? Don't you believe it?"
"...I don't disbelieve it!" Lu Yuan looked up at the sky and down at the ground, but not at him. His guilty conscience was too obvious.
The overly subtle pause of a few seconds almost made Xiao Li laugh.
"Okay, let's go. If we don't hurry up, we'll miss the ox cart."
"okay."
This was the first time Lu Yuan went out without his backpack. He wore clean shoes without patches on his feet. He walked briskly, and from time to time he reached out to pull the weeds on the roadside.
He doesn't look like an adult who is about to get married. He is clearly a child who has not grown up.
After the engagement was completed and the road ahead was clear, Xiao Li no longer avoided suspicion as before. He walked beside him, turning his head to glance at him from time to time.
It was already noon, the sky was bright, and the villagers had already gone out to work.
Seeing the two of them walking together, everyone looked at them in surprise and confusion.
The villagers didn't recognize Lu Yuan. They were all very curious when they suddenly saw such a clean and handsome boy in the village.
"Xiao Si, who is the guy next to you? Why haven't I seen him in the village before?"
"That's right, Xiao Si, didn't you just get engaged to Brother Yuan? Even if you're a scholar, you can't just turn around and hook up with another handsome guy, right?"
"Xiao Si, what Xiao Er said before about you climbing up the social ladder couldn't be true, right?"
……
In short, there are all kinds of questions, some are simply curious, and some are obviously jealous.
Lu Yuan then remembered that she didn't make a fool of herself today. She wore the new clothes that her little daddy made for her and washed her hair last night.
Not to mention others, he himself thinks he is a handsome guy!
When Lu Yuan heard others say that he was handsome, she was not shy, but just quietly moved closer to Xiao Li.
It is one thing not to be shy, but it is another to speak loudly to the villagers.
Most of these people never said anything bad about him to his face, but he heard a lot of it behind his back. He actually didn't like the villagers very much.
Sensing his rejection of the villagers, Xiao Li said to everyone with a cold expression: "The young man next to me is naturally my future husband."
Hearing this, everyone was in an uproar.
This handsome boy is the ugly boy from the Lu family? That can't be right?
But Xiao Si is a scholar, he wouldn't deceive them with such things, right?
Besides, if that were to happen, it would be bad for our reputation if it got out.
He is a scholar, he can't ruin his own future, right?
In Xiao Li's opinion, they were suddenly stunned and had nothing to say, so he pulled Lu Yuan away.
"They don't believe what you said. They think I'm so ugly and I will definitely not be as beautiful as I am now." Lu Yuan touched her smooth and tender face, feeling inexplicably proud.
Let them always say that they are ugly before, and see if he doesn’t scare them to death now!
Xiao Li held his hand tightly and didn't let go. He said "hmm" lightly, "Don't worry about them."
He never wastes time on unimportant people.
This is true for the heroine, Xiao Manjin, and naturally the villagers of Yangliu Village.
To him, these people are no different.
Lu Yuan let out a confused "Ah" and looked at him in confusion, "Aren't you angry at all? They don't believe you."
"They have nothing to do with me, why should I care what they say?" Xiao Li tilted his head to look at him, thinking of what happened to the little brother before, and then continued: "You too, don't care what they say. If they make you unhappy, just tell me and I will find a way to avenge you."
"How are you going to avenge me?" Lu Yuan's eyes were almost filled with curiosity. "Are you going to go with your Third Uncle and put a sack on them and beat them up?"
Hearing this, Xiao Li narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at him with a half-smile, "You seem to know a lot about this?"
"This..." The boy stammered, unable to speak, and covered his face with his hands, "Is my guess not okay?"
If you don't have some experience, you probably won't be able to guess this kind of thing.
After all, Xiao Li and he didn't spend much time together, and they weren't to the point where they shared each other's secrets.
Besides, who doesn’t have little secrets?
Others have it, and so does he, and he has quite a few secrets.
"Okay, that's a pretty accurate guess." Xiao Li saw through it but didn't say anything.
Seeing that he didn't ask anything, Lu Yuan was obviously relieved, and soon asked him enthusiastically how he would avenge her.
Xiao Li pretended to ponder for a moment, then under the young man's expectant gaze, he coughed dryly and said in a deep voice, "Of course..."
Seeing the young man's breathing become noticeably lighter, and he looked extremely expectant, he chuckled, "Just like Yuan'er said, put a sack on someone and beat them up."
"Oh." The boy's reaction was indifferent, as if he was saying "That's it?", which made Xiao Li very amused.
He touched the boy's head, his palm moving along the boy's soft hair all the way back, finally stopping at his back, "Are you so disappointed?"
Lu Yuan raised her eyelids and said, "I thought you were better than my father, but I didn't expect it to be like this?"
Hearing this, Xiao Li finally understood why the young man suddenly spoke so arrogantly just now. It turned out that he had seen or heard about it before.
He nodded and took the opportunity to praise his deceased father-in-law, "Dad is really awesome."
Lu Yuan: ???
Lu Yuan:!!!
No, who is he calling daddy?
