How I Tamed My Wolfish Husband Back in 80s-Chapter 45 - Loyalty_1

45 -45: Loyalty_1
Qin Jin chuckled at her naivety.
It was said that when Li Qiao was six or seven years old, Miss Li had an arranged marriage, and Dong Lamei ruthlessly demanded a hefty bride price, using the dowry collected to fund her and Li Jinhua’s education.
At first, she only wanted to support Li Jinhua’s studies.
After Miss Li made a scene upon returning home, Dong Lamei, fearing the incident would grow and others would gossip about her, possibly affecting her two children, relented and agreed that only one of the two sisters could be supported.
The second sister then gave the opportunity to Li Qiao.
Later, when it was the second sister’s turn to get married, her husband’s family was relatively wealthy, and Dong Lamei naturally did not miss the opportunity to hold out her hand.
The money for their education was thus secured again, wasn’t it?
Silly and naive.
Now she was essentially sold off herself, and there she was, counting money for others.
Old Mrs.
Qin: “Yes, do drop by often to see us when you have the time.”
“Mhm.”
Qin Jin didn’t want to listen anymore, such womanly compassion!
He looked up at the sky, the sun was still in the west.
The day darkens so slowly today.
Finally, when it was time to sleep, he hurriedly lit a lamp, washed up, and slipped into bed, propping himself up to look down at Li Qiao.
She was so fair, with beautiful and delicate features, and her eyelashes curled upwards like two little fans.
Li Qiao’s heart pounded violently with nervousness, like a drumming beat.
“Can you put out the light?
I…
I have no experience and am very scared and shy.”
Qin Jin looked down on her, thinking of her past relationship with Cai Hechuan.
What hadn’t the villagers said?
He had also caught her going to meet her ex after returning home, who knows how many times.
And there she was, feigning innocence!
But it didn’t matter.
After tomorrow, she’d realize just how good-for-nothing Cai Hechuan was!
“No need to pretend, it’s not your first time, and I won’t hit you,” he said disdainfully.
Li Qiao: “….” Hey, who’s pretending?
She was indeed innocent.
Who said it’s not my first time?
And hit me?
Just try it.
But at that moment, she might as well close her eyes and try to relax and cooperate.
Then there was a knocking at the door.
Her eyes flew open again.
Qin Jin bellowed, “Who is it!
Who the hell is knocking at this hour of the night?”
“Jin, it’s me, Feng Kui!
My wife has run off; come out quickly and help me look for her.”
Qin Jin cursed again, then clambered out of bed.
Li Qiao couldn’t believe it; was he actually leaving?
She was left hanging, and he was leaving just like that?
Was he really going?
She couldn’t help asking, “Your friend’s wife ran away; do you think you can find her?”
“I have no choice but to look for her.
When I got married, I borrowed money from him.
I promised that if he ever needed help, I’d go through hell and high water.”
Li Qiao: “….” Should I call him a hopeless romantic, or truly loyal?
Qin Jin just left.
Li Qiao felt a bit of chaos, taking a while to recover.
She didn’t know when she fell asleep, but the next day, she awoke to find herself encircled in someone’s arms from behind.
Li Qiao turned around to see the young man sound asleep, his features relaxed, with no hint of aggression.
She watched him for a while, then gently removed his arm around her waist and got out of bed.
He felt the absence in his arms, frowned slightly, looking displeased, but did not open his eyes.
Li Qiao tiptoed out of the room.
After breakfast, she continued her handcrafting.
Only when the sun was high did Qin Jin yawn and emerge from the room.
Li Qiao said, “Jin, did your friend find his wife?”
“Yeah, he found her hiding under the bed after beating her up.”
Li Qiao: “…” Why do they all love to beat women?
“Will you ever hit me?”
Qin Jin: “…” Beat her?
When she cries, he can’t even bear the scratching in his heart, so how could he bring himself to lay a hand on her?
“I won’t beat you, I will cherish you.”
Li Qiao’s heart fluttered as her face turned red: “…” Sheesh!
Why be so straightforward?
Old Mrs.
Qin thought to herself, cherish my foot!
You’ve been married for so long, have you even consummated the marriage?
….
Li Qiao spent a day and a half to weave seven vases and two pen holders, placing each into a cloth bag, planning to hand them over to Gao Dagang during tomorrow’s lunch break to see if they could be sold.
If they couldn’t be sold, she would take them back and give them away.
That night, Qin Jin wanted to continue, but Li Qiao refused.
She solemnly told him that from now on, he could only touch her on Saturday nights, and if he missed the opportunity, he’d have to wait another week, frustrating Qin Jin to the point of hair-pulling.
Li Qiao smiled proudly.
Regretting finding a wife for someone now, are you?
The next day before dawn.
Old Mrs.
Qin prepared the eggs and white rice.
She murmured, “Steamed buns might be stolen just after they are out, but rice doesn’t take much space and should be much safer.”
After Li Qiao was ready, Qin Jin drove her to school, saying on the way, “You should let me handle your handicrafts. free𝑤ebnovel.com
I can contact your classmates for you, so you don’t have to run to the streets again.”
Li Qiao considered it and then declined.
Gao Dagang is a man, if Qin Jin went over there, wouldn’t he get jealous and resentful?
Better not have a dispute and end up fighting with someone again.
She explained firmly, “You’re not familiar with my classmates.
If you just show up, even if you mentioned my name, they might not dare to take your stuff.
I’ll go there first to scope things out.
If the things I made can be sold, you can deliver them next time.”
Qin Jin: “That works too.”
At some distance from the school entrance, Qin Jin stopped the car.
“It’s not far, you can go on by yourself.”
Li Qiao felt somewhat helpless as she carried her large and small bags, standing on tiptoes to kiss his cheek, “See you on Saturday.”
Qin Jin touched his cheek, still warm from her kiss, and his lips slightly curled up into a beautiful arc: “Mm, I’ll pick you up then.”
“Great, just wait for me directly at the entrance,” Li Qiao said.
Qin Jin hesitated for a moment and gave an almost imperceptible nod.
Li Qiao guessed he would still wait for her at the alley.
He might feel a bit inferior, and as the gap between them widened, it was inevitable that he would feel an even greater disparity.
In the future, she should take the initiative more to strengthen the bond between them.
Thinking this, Li Qiao arrived at the dormitory.
Many had arrived the previous night, and Li Jinhua was among them.
When she arrived, they had already finished morning reading and were eating breakfast in the dormitory.
Li Qiao greeted everyone, “Morning!”
Since everyone knew she was married to Loser Qin, they basically didn’t care much for her.
Only Hu Xiufang and Li Jinhua responded.
The latter couldn’t help but glance into the sack of woven goods, “Third Sister, did you bring a sack of steamed buns?”
Li Qiao: “No.”
“Then what is it?”
“I won’t tell you,” Li Qiao said as she straightened her already tidy bed.
Li Jinhua came forward specifically to ask, “Third Sister, what food did you bring this week?”
“White rice, and if a bit goes missing, I will look for you,” Li Qiao warned in a low voice.
Li Jinhua gasped.
How could Qin Jin be so generous?
It’s always steamed buns or rice he prepared for Li Qiao.
What an idiot he is!
She would definitely find a chance to remind him that Li Qiao was nothing but lowly goods, who in her past life had not only cheated on him countless times but also caused the death of his only relative, and was in no way deserving of his devotion.
Li Qiao waited until everyone had finished their breakfast and washed their rice boxes, then she packed some rice into her box, rinsed it clean, and took it to the canteen before heading to class.
During the lunch break, she planned to carry the sack to the town’s supply and marketing cooperative.
There she found Gao Dagang.
Li Qiao took out the vases and pen holders she had woven, “I made these myself.
Could you help me put them on the stand for sale?
One-fifty each, and the extra money is all yours.”
Gao Dagang, who was working, had not yet been tainted by the materialism of society and was very honest.
He waved his hand repeatedly, “We’re old classmates, I can definitely help with this small favor.
How is Qin Jin treating you since you got married to him?”
Li Qiao didn’t hesitate to answer, “Good!”
