A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 83

Lily learns from Louis that the plant was discovered by David, and he occasionally obtained the paper with the address from the local people.

After getting the number of the plants he needed, David immediately reported to Louis, but the address on the paper is written in Ukrainian, which is almost extinct. In order to find someone who can know Ukrainian, they spent a lot of time.

Lily just sneered in her heart.

Yeah, they did make a lot of efforts. Mr. Louis has set traps for her many times.

The sky outside the window is getting dark, and the woman in the headscarf comes in again and wants to take Lily out for dinner.

Lily doesn’t refuse her and goes out with Louis.

After arriving at the yard, Lily finds that the yard is very bright. It turns out that the large stone placing in the yard is painted with a layer of plant dye, which is like the moon in the night.

On the open ground are several blankets made of animal fur, on which places the tables for men to sit and chat together. Children are sitting in another table, and women are preparing food.

The atmosphere is very warm, and everyone's face is full of happiness.

"It's so nice here." The scene seems like a painting, quiet and beautiful, which makes Lily envious. She can take her time slowly here, and she doesn't have to worry about anything.

"Well, stay here for two more days if you like it." The woman named Aisha says with a smile.

She brings Lily and Louis to a group of people, "Head, this is Sumier and her husband Saha. They get lost when they were selling goods on the road."

The village head seems to be about thirty years old, with wrinkles in the corners of his eyes, and he looks young and healthy. If she doesn’t know about the plant, Lily really thinks he is only thirty years old.

When she comes out, she notices that there are basically no elderly people here.

"Hello, head." Lily becomes more proficient at this language and bows towards the village head, "Thank you for taking care of us. I'm so grateful to you."

"Aisha is right. You can speak our language." The village head is also surprised, "I thought no one would speak this language except the people in our village."

The village chief arranges for Lily and Louis to sit beside him and they chat casually.

Lily has made up a perfect story for herself and Louis. She would answer any question the village head asks, and sometimes she pretends to be pitiful. The "dumb" Louis just stays silently.

After talking for a few minutes, the village head asks, "What kind of business do you do?"

Lily is in trouble.

God. She didn't ask Mr. Louis before in the house.

She nudges Louis with her elbow, and she doesn’t turn her face, "Mr. Louis, the village head asks what business did we do."

Louis takes a cake from the plate and feeds Lily, and says in a low voice, "Vegetables and cotton seeds."

When the warm breath blows on Lily's ear, Lily shudders and bites his fingers.

She quickly puts the rice cake in her mouth and calmly says, "We sell vegetable seeds and cotton seeds."

"Vegetable seeds?" The village head becomes interested. Their land is suitable for planting, but because of language barrier, they cannot go out and communicate with people, nor can they change these goods.

The scarcest thing in the village is vegetables, and what they eat is from hunting.

Lily nods and says sadly, "My family is doing this kind of business, but my dad doesn't like Saha. The seeds I brought from home can't be sold, so I have to sell them here."

"May the Lord bless you." The village head says, "We are short of vegetables and cotton. If you like it, I will replace it with animal fur."

"No, you're welcome. I can give those seeds to you." Lily shakes her head and says sincerely, "If it weren't for Aisha's food, my baby would starve to die. You are my benefactor. We get lost and we don’t know where that truck is."

The head says, "It's okay. You and Saha have a good rest here tonight. I'll let people go out to find your truck tomorrow."

"Thank you."

After finishing the conversation, Lily takes a long breath.

While the head turns his head to talk to other people, she tells Louis what she has just talked about.

After hearing it, Louis can’t help appreciating Lily.

Of course, they cannot agree to exchange the goods. Their purpose is that plant, not animal fur. If they donate the vegetable seeds to the village, they will become the big benefactors in the village. Then when they will find an opportunity to ask for that kind of plant, the villagers will not doubt them.

He finds that the more he gets along with this woman, the more he feels she is clever.

Soon, the steaming food is put on a small table, all of which is stewed meat, with a fragrant aroma, but there are few vegetables.

The head asks people to take out a few jars of house-brewed wine and fills Louis’s bowl.

Louis smell it and frowns.

Lily leans over and asks quietly, "Mr. Louis, are you going to tell me you can't drink the wine?"

"No, it's just that the alcohol concentration is very high." Louis says, "I rarely drink alcohol with high alcohol concentration."

Something will go wrong if he drinks it, but he doesn't know what’s wrong. David told him not to drink wine with high alcohol concentration.

"Then I'll drink it. It is just a bowl." Lily bring the bowl over and then remembers, "I told them that I am pregnant. If I drink the wine, they would know I am lying."

At this time, the people at the other tables cheer up and raise the bowls in their hands.

"Miss Lily, how wonderful you are! You even have my child." Louis seems to smile, takes the bowl of wine and drinks it all.

Some wine stains run down the corners of his lips, dripping down this collarbone and getting into his clothes. It’s so sexy and charming.

Lily reminds of the words like "Some people are sexy when they drink wine".

She believes it now.

Louis only drinks a bowl of wine, and his face does not flush, but he seems very uncomfortable. He rubs his temples with his fingers and frowns.

“Head, my husband is not very comfortable. I will help him go to Aisha's house to have a rest."

"OK, go ahead."

Lily hurries to support Louis. She sees Louis’s eyes half-opened, and he is a little unconscious, so she puts one of his arms on her shoulder. When she is about to get up, she almost kneels down.

He’s so heavy!

Fortunately, Aisha's house is not far from here. Lily manages to bring Louis back. The room is dark and she fumbles for a long time before lifting the fur on the stone.

The room is as bright immediately.

When she throws Louis on the bed, Lily is panting. She looks at the sleepy Louis and whispers, "If I know you can’t drink, I won’t say I am pregnant. At least I would drink the wine for you."

She has seen Louis drink many times before, but he is fine. Why did he get drunk this time?

Is it really because of high alcohol concentration?

Lily is wondering. After finding the water outside, she washes her face and arms, and then takes a basin to help Louis wash his face.

When she pushes the door into the house, she sees Louis, who was sleeping, now sitting on the bed in a daze.

"Mr. Louis, how did you wake up?"

When Louis sees Lily, his eyes are bright, and he immediately gets out of bed and walks to Lily. Unlike in normal days, Lily doesn’t feel oppression when he stands in front of her.

Lily is also confused.

Somehow, she feels that it is not Mr. Louis who is standing in front of her, but a giant Samoyed.

The man's deep and narrow eyes firmly stare at Lily, and because of drinking, his voice is a little drunk, and he looks very cute.

"My wife."

Lily is so scared that her fingers loosen, and the iron basin filled with water drops on the ground.
