『Sign in to claim a gorgeous young widow. In the early stage, take concubines, develop, and stockpile grain. In the later stage, let hearts and dreams whirl as the winds and clouds churn. If you’re still unhappy after thirty chapters, I’ll send my godfathers something nice to look at.』
Great Jing Dynasty, Xiling Village.
『Beauty System Shop bound successfully!』
『The host can use Shop Coins to buy grain, medicine, modern weapons, and everything else needed.』
『Physical fitness can be enhanced without limit.』
Chu Xun looked at the peerlessly beautiful young woman kneeling before him… her hips like a full moon, her voluptuous figure spilling past her shoulders… and at the virtual panel before him, and confirmed that he had transmigrated.
He hadn’t expected that just because he had swiped his comrade’s lighter, he would be sent by his sweet wife to this famine-stricken otherworld.
And this system seemed rather interesting too.
The gorgeous woman before him had moist peach-blossom eyes, a waist like a slender willow, and astonishing looks.
She knelt before him, sobbing miserably, her moist peach-blossom eyes filled with fear!
“Brother, Yue’er shouldn’t have stolen your grain. Please, I beg you, don’t report me to the authorities.”
Chu Xun rubbed his sore forehead.
“Sister Qin, get up first. I won’t report you, but you should understand that stealing grain in a famine year is harshly punished by the authorities, right?”
Hearing those words, Qin Yue’er’s full body visibly trembled.
With tear-filled eyes, she said, “My little sister has a high fever that won’t go away, and our home really has no grain left. Yue’er went door to door but couldn’t borrow a single grain.”
“When I passed by brother’s house, I saw the four doors wide open, and that’s when I got the evil idea.”
After saying that, Qin Yue’er banged her head on the ground several times, bruising her forehead until it bled.
“My little sister hasn’t eaten for two days. Please, brother, lend me half a pound of millet. I’ll repay Yue’er however you want.”
She bowed low, kneeling before Chu Xun and pleading bitterly.
Chu Xun raised an eyebrow, his expression a little strange.
The original owner’s parents had both died, and his second uncle’s family raised him and paid for his schooling.
A few days ago, the original owner fell seriously ill. After his second uncle borrowed money for medicine, the whole family went to the city to do hard labor to repay the debt.
Then the original owner’s cold relapsed suddenly, he was gone in a flash, and Chu Xun happened to transmigrate into his place.
This gorgeous young widow was begging him for grain.
But he remembered that there were at most only three pounds of millet left at home.
If he lent it to her, wouldn’t he starve to death himself?
『Qin Yue’er, White Tiger-cursed, Lone Star of Misfortune.』
White Tiger-cursed? Lone Star of Misfortune?
Chu Xun stood before her, looking down at Qin Yue’er.
He had little grain, plenty of debt, and a weak, cold body. If he made even one mistake, he might die all over again.
But fortunately, he had the System Shop.
Then Chu Xun reached out and supported Qin Yue’er’s delicate shoulders.
“Sister Qin, you know my situation. I don’t have much grain left. If I lend it to you… I…”
He paused at just the right moment, looking troubled.
Qin Yue’er hurriedly got to her feet and grabbed Chu Xun’s arm.
She pleaded, “Brother Chu, as long as you’re willing to lend me grain, I’ll do anything! Please, I beg you!”
Anything?
Chu Xun’s gaze swept across her snow-white, slender neck, then scanned Qin Yue’er from top to bottom.
Beautiful as peach and plum blossoms, plump and delicate, with an oval face, peach-blossom eyes, and a fair face covered in tear tracks and intoxicating blush.
Qin Yue’er was simply a stunning beauty who perfectly fused “purity” and “desire.”
Chu Xun lowered his voice. “Lending grain is possible. As long as you’re willing to come into my room and sit for a while, I’ll give you two pounds of grain. What do you say?”
Qin Yue’er was desperate to save her little sister, and he held the leverage of her grain theft.
If he told her to come into his room and then said he could give her a few pounds of grain…
Go into the room… and sit for a while~~
Qin Yue’er’s cheeks turned red at once, and she bit her lower lip hard.
The pale face of her little sister being gravely ill flashed before her eyes.
Without grain, her little sister probably wouldn’t survive this fever.
At this moment, she was both shy and conflicted. “Brother, I… I…”
Chu Xun let go of her shoulders and said calmly, “If you don’t want to, forget it. You can leave.”
With that, he turned around decisively.
But then Qin Yue’er panic-strickenly grabbed his arm.
“No, Yue’er is willing, it’s just…”
“Just what?” Chu Xun turned around and looked at her with amusement.
Qin Yue’er wrapped her arms tightly across her chest, making her voluptuous curves even more obvious.
She stammered, “Brother Chu, Yue’er is an unlucky person. Aren’t you afraid…”
She had driven her family and her fiancé’s entire family to their deaths.
She had been labeled White Tiger-cursed and a Lone Star of Misfortune.
If Chu Xun took her, what if something happened to him later?
Afraid of White Tiger fate?
What a joke!
“Afraid?” Chu Xun sneered. “I don’t believe in any White Tiger curse. As long as you come into my room with me, I’ll give you two pounds of grain right after it’s over. Do you want it or not?”
Qin Yue’er looked into Chu Xun’s determined eyes, and her heart suddenly felt dazed.
Everyone else who saw her wished only to curse her to die, yet Brother Chu didn’t care at all.
Her face red, her fair neck bobbing slightly, she said in a broken voice, “As long as brother is willing to give me a few pounds of grain, I… I’m willing!”
“Don’t worry, I keep my word. I’ll definitely give you a few pounds of grain later.”
Then Chu Xun took her cold, soft wrist and lured this soft, fragrant little white rabbit, Qin Yue’er, into his room.
…
Soon, a violent pounding on the door sounded outside, along with a rough voice.
“Sick Bookworm, open the door! If you don’t pay back the ten pounds of grain you owe me, I’ll set your house on fire!”
Chu Xun: ??
His physical fitness had just doubled, and someone was already coming here to ask for a beating so soon?
