Agriculture Escape: Ultimate Boss Has A Space Pocket! - Chapter 4

Chapter 4: Call Me Wife
Bai Wutong lowered her eyes and searched them. Not only did she find the silver she had given previously, but she also found 12 taels more.
Unfortunately, the newly established household register could not be used.
Now that the city gates were closed, she couldn’t leave the inn. Bai Wutong dragged the two corpses under the bed and lay back to take a nap.
She had to rest. No matter how strong she was, she couldn’t take the fatigue.
Before dawn, she dressed herself up anew.
This time, she used a hair dye. She dyed her hair yellow and painted dark circles and spots, making her look like a malnourished little girl.
The kind that would definitely be forgotten when thrown into a sea of people.
Bai Wutong came out of the inn with an inconspicuous bag on her back. She had only taken a few steps when someone grabbed the hem of her dress. She turned around abruptly and met a pair of deep-set starry eyes.
The man she had coaxed smiled foolishly. “Mother~”
“…”
Why was he here?
How had he recognized her when she was dressed like this?
Lin’an City was so far away. How had he found her?
Bai Wutong looked puzzled. “Why are you here?”
“Mother, you didn’t come back, so Tianbao has come to look for you! Tianbao has been looking for you for a long time.” He smiled happily, but his extraordinarily handsome face was that of a fool.
Bai Wutong said sternly, “You’ve got the wrong person. I’m really not your mother.”
Regardless of whether it was before or now.
Tianbao blinked and said aggrievedly, “You’re clearly my mother!”
Bai Wutong covered her face. She really wasn’t his mother!
Who would rush towards someone to be their son?
Bai Wutong had no choice but to coax him again. “Tianbao, wait for me here for a while. Mother will be back soon, okay?”
However, this fool actually learned. He shook his head firmly. “I’ll go wherever Mother goes!”
He tugged at her on the street, but she couldn’t shake him off. Passers-by kept looking at them strangely.
Bai Wutong was speechless. Thinking of the two corpses under the inn bed, she had no choice but to drag this guy into an empty alley.
Bai Wutong looked him up and down.
The wounds on his head and chest were open and oozing blood. He was covered in mud and looked as miserable as a beggar.
But his gaze at her sparkled as if she really was his mother.
Bai Wutong frowned and thought for a long time. “Are you really going to follow me?”
Tianbao nodded profusely. “I’ll go wherever Mother goes. We’ll never be apart.”
If he was really a fool, good at martial arts, and obedient, he could stay.
When Bai Wutong figured it out, she reached into her bag and took out medicine and bandages from the RV space and out of her bag.
When others saw this, they would think that there was medicine in the bag.
Bai Wutong said, “Squat down. I’ll change your dressing.”
He was almost 1.9 meters tall. Bai Wutong was not extremely short but she barely reached his shoulders.
Tianbao squatted down obediently. Bai Wutong quickly took off his clothes and removed the bandage.
Fortunately, the wound had only opened a little. A simple treatment would take care of it.
“Rumble rumble~”
Tianbao held his stomach and blushed. “Mother, I’m so hungry.”
Bai Wutong took out two large steamed buns from her bag and stuffed them into his hands. While Tianbao ate, Bai Wutong changed his dressing.
After changing his dressing, Bai Wutong frowned at his tattered clothes. She took another set of clothes from the RV and held it in front of his eyes. “Put it on.”
Holding the clothes, Tianbao said pitifully, “Mother, I don’t know how to.”
Bai Wutong’s eyebrows twitched. She really wanted to pry open his brain and ask, ‘If you can kill people, why can’t you wear your own clothes?’
However, there was no need to stoop to the level of a fool.
And there was no need to waste time here.
As Bai Wutong dressed him, she reminded him, “I’ll help you this time. Next time, you have to wear it yourself, understand?”
Tianbao nodded with a red face. “Okay, Mother.”
Bai Wutong glanced at him and was satisfied. He was quite obedient.
Something fell out of his shirt with a clunk.
Bai Wutong picked it up. The word “Chu” was engraved in the middle of the jade tablet.
Bai Wutong asked, “Is this yours?”
Tianbao nodded. “Yes, I think so.”
‘What do you mean you think so!’
“Your name is Chu Tianbao, then?”
Tianbao thought for a moment. “I think so.”
“…”
Bai Wutong was speechless. She suddenly smiled and said, “Then I’ll keep it for you first.”
Such a big piece of jade was worth a lot of money. If she ran out of money, she could even pawn it and spend the money.
‘Think of it as payment for his meals.’
Chu Tianbao smiled foolishly. “Okay, Mother.”
Bai Wutong frowned. He should be in his twenties. Her body only belonged to a teen’s. If he was a few years older, he could even be her father. It was really not appropriate to call her mother.
Otherwise, she would have to acknowledge this cheap son.
Bai Wutong thought about it and requested Chu Tianbao, “Call me wife.”
In any case, she had no intention of getting married. Reputation was not important to her. He was her husband in name. Not only would they be able to settle down in Ling Kingdom, but he would also save her a lot of trouble.
The more she thought about it, the more she liked Chu Tianbao.
Chu Tianbao stared at Bai Wutong in confusion. “Why should I calling you my wife?”
Although he was a little dumb, he understood that a mother was different from a wife.
Bai Wutong couldn’t be bothered to explain and directly threatened, “If you want to stay, call me wife.”
Chu Tianbao was terrified. He grabbed the sleeve of Bai Wutong. “Mother, don’t leave Tianbao behind.”
Bai Wutong was determined. “Call me wife.”
Chu Tianbao corrected himself aggrievedly. “Wife.”
He looked timid and obedient.
Bai Wutong smirked. “Now that’s right.”
What a good thing it was for him to earn a beautiful wife who could provide food and accommodation for free.
When they reached the city gate, a few soldiers immediately came up and stopped them.
Bai Wutong looked calm on the surface, but she was panicking in her heart. They shouldn’t be able to discover her so quickly!
The leading soldier pointed at Chu Tianbao and said, “The emperor has issued a decree. All men who have reached 12 years old have to join the army. Now, follow me!”
There were some ugly people among the refugees. He had taken a fancy to a strong man like Chu Tianbao from afar.
Bai Wutong’s expression suddenly changed.
No wonder they were letting the refugees into the city. They were forcefully trying to recruit more soldiers into their army.
Chu Tianbao tugged at Bai Wutong’s sleeve and said nervously, “I don’t want to be separated from Mot-, Wife. Wife, don’t chase me away.”
The burly man grabbed her clothes and spoke in a disgusting manner.
The soldiers had looks of disdain on their faces as they imitated Chu Tianbao in a strange manner. “I don’t want to be separated from my wife~ Don’t chase me away~ Hahaha~”
“Bah! You disgust me.”
Chu Tianbao’s dark eyes had the reflection of Bai Wutong inside. His innocent appearance made him look especially easy to bully.
Displeasure flashed across Bai Wutong’s eyes. They were soldiers, but they did not dare to act rashly.
The two officers smirked and nudged Chu Tianbao.
When he touched Chu Tianbao’s wound, he gasped and shouted at Bai Wutong, “Wife, it hurts.”
Although Chu Tianbao called her his wife, Bai Wutong knew very well that he still treated her as his mother. He reached out pitifully for comfort.
