Rebirth: I Raise a Husband in Another World
Chapter 15 Golden House
After a stick of incense had passed, the waiter came to Lin Han with a tray and took out the dishes he ordered and placed them in order.
The waiter said: "Sir, please enjoy your meal."
Then, Lin Han started eating.
Lin Han: Let me try it and see how it tastes. Hmm~ The green peppers are refreshing and the shredded meat is delicious.
The braised pork melts in your mouth, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, fatty but not greasy, and delicious. Not bad, it seems I came to the right restaurant.
Lin Han was eating with a smile on his face, and it was obvious that he was extremely satisfied.
Shredded pork with green peppers and braised pork are both very delicious dishes. For Lin Han, who has lived in the apocalypse for several years and has been eating instant noodles, canned food and compressed biscuits every day, they are simply delicacies. They are so delicious that Lin Han wants to swallow his tongue.
After eating his fill, Lin Han drank a cup of tea to rinse his mouth and asked the waiter to come and settle the bill.
Lin Han: "Brother, please pay the bill."
The waiter said, "Okay, sir, hello. You ordered one order of stir-fried pork with green peppers and one order of braised pork, plus four ounces of rice, so the total is six hundred and ten coins."
Lin Han: It’s okay, not expensive but not cheap either.
He took out half a tael of silver and one hundred and ten copper coins from his chest and handed them to the waiter.
Lin Han: "Come, pay the bill."
The waiter took the money, counted it carefully, and left after confirming that there was no mistake.
It was only the afternoon now, and there was still about an hour until the afternoon. Lin Han had already bought everything he needed for this trip, but he didn't know where to go or what to do.
Lin Han was wandering aimlessly with a backpack on his back, and began to complain: It's so boring. If it were in modern times, I could use my mobile phone to watch animal world, news, and wilderness survival documentaries while waiting for the iron pot to be cooked.
Even in the end times, you can still use arcade machines to play single-player games. Unlike here, there is nothing fun to do.
In fact, life in ancient times was also very rich, but that was the life of the rich.
Lin Han has not come into contact with it yet, so he doesn’t know that the ancients actually enjoyed themselves in their daily lives.
As he walked, he saw a bookstore, his eyes lit up and he instantly became energetic.
Lin Han: Yes, I can still read books. I read a lot of books during the apocalypse.
Country Z had novels more than four hundred years ago. Since the characters here are the same as those in Country Z, maybe there are novels here too.
Yes, I should go in and take a look. If there are novels, I won’t be bored anymore.
Thinking of this, Lin Han walked into the bookstore with a heroic and high-spirited look. Generally, people who came to the bookstore were mostly scholars and servants of rich people. Of course, there were also farmers, but they were a minority.
Seeing Lin Han’s shabby clothes, the owner of the bookstore remained calm and did not show any contempt.
The shop assistant came up to greet Lin Han, "Young man, are you looking to buy a book?"
Lin Han: "I want to read a book here, is that okay?"
Bookshop clerk: "Of course, our bookshop has the most complete collection of books. You can buy books, borrow books, and read books here.
If you have good handwriting, you can copy books for our bookshop. If you have good writing skills, you can also write books and sell them to our bookshop. The rewards are generous."
The clerks in the bookstore probably also read books on weekdays, and their way of speaking is different from that of the people in Lin Han’s village.
The bookshop clerk said: "We charge for reading books here, fifteen cents per hour.
When the time comes, we will come to check if there are any damages or stains on the books. If there are any, we will compensate you."
Lin Han: "What if I borrow a book to read at home? How much does it cost?"
The bookshop clerk patiently explained to him: "If you borrow it to read at home, the price will naturally be different.
Borrowing a book costs thirty wen, and you also have to pay a deposit of one or two taels of silver. The deadline is one month, and if you are late, you have to pay a penalty.
Also, if the borrowed book is damaged or stained, the deposit will be deducted."
Lin Han's mind was working at high speed: It seems that it would be more cost-effective to borrow it home to read, as long as I return it on time.
But I only have a few taels of silver on me now, so I can only borrow one or two books.
Forget it, I'll mortgage it after I earn more money. I won't borrow it today. I'll just stay here for an hour.
Lin Han thought about the most advantageous option for himself in his mind.
Lin Han: "I'll read for an hour. This is fifteen cents."
The bookshop clerk took the money, smiled politely, and instructed Lin Han: "Okay, please come over here and wash your hands first, and then you can choose the book you want to read."
Lin Han was a little confused. Why did he have to wash his hands?
Lin Han expressed his doubts at the right time: "Wash your hands?"
The bookshop clerk said: "Don't mind me, this is the rule of our bookshop. Everyone who wants to borrow a book must wash their hands. This is not targeting you.
After all, books are precious things. If they are not properly stored, they will be easily damaged. We should be more careful, don’t you think?
Knowing the reason, Lin Han felt relieved: "Yes."
Lin Han washed his hands according to the bookshop clerk's instructions, and then went to choose the books he wanted to read.
What the bookshop clerk said was indeed true. This bookshop does have a complete range of books.
Lin Han was almost overwhelmed by the choices and couldn't pick out the book he wanted to read.
Suddenly, he saw a book with an extremely bold cover, titled The Romantic Prince and the Pretty Widow.
The cover is bold and the title is interesting, so this is a must-see.
Lin Han took the book, found a more secluded seat, and began to appreciate it.
This book tells the love story between a romantic prince and a widow.
The widow and the prince were childhood sweethearts. Later, the prince went to the battlefield and was unfortunately harmed by a villain. He accidentally fell off a cliff and his life or death was unknown.
The widow was the famous Shuang'er in the capital. In the past, with the prince standing in front of him, naturally no one dared to touch him.
But ever since the prince's whereabouts became unknown, he had been robbed, framed, and lost his innocence.
In order to preserve his family's reputation, he had no choice but to marry the person who took away his innocence.
The man was a playboy and a dandy boy. He wanted to get Shuang'er only because she was beautiful and famous.
But he knew that Shuang'er had someone in her heart, so after marrying her home, he didn't treat her well and often beat and scolded her.
Later, the prince came back alive and tried his best to save Shuang'er from suffering. In the end, he lived a shameless and happy life with Shuang'er.
Seeing this, you wouldn’t think that this is a fresh and sweet story, right? NoNoNo, in fact, this book only introduces the development of the story in the first few pages.
The remaining 98 percent of the content is extremely bold and voluptuous, making it breathtaking to watch.
Lin Han's face turned red. You should know that in modern times, Lin Han has also read many Phoenix books. He has rules when reading Phoenix books, and there are three things he should not read.
First, don’t read books with ugly titles. Second, don’t read books with ugly titles. Third, don’t read books with ugly contents.
Lin Han: I used to hear people say that ancient people were conservative in their thinking. But it seems that they were not so conservative at all. Their behavior was quite open. It really broadened my horizons.
