The Transmigrated Li Jin's Daily Farming Life (Translated With Mtl)

Chapter 64

Li Jin, though unknowingly influenced by societal norms, still held on to a traditional masculine aesthetic and was naturally sensitive to facial skincare products and various cosmetic containers. He couldn't even tolerate strong scents, including those of perfumed powders.

In the village, the gers usually dressed modestly, often tying their hair with a single ribbon or hairpin, and Li Jin saw no issue with that.

However, the county city was more bustling, and there was even a dedicated jewelry store here.

The shopkeeper at the entrance called out, "Sir, would you like to buy some jewelry for your lady or yourself? We have bracelets, earrings, and more."

Li Jin didn't want to imagine Qin Muwen with hairpins and excessive ornaments adorning his head.

Without pausing, he continued walking forward and stopped in front of a small shop specializing in wood carving.

Ancient carving techniques were exceptionally exquisite, and Li Jin had a particular fondness for wood carvings.

He remembered an article called "The Boat of Nuclei," which told the story of a skilled craftsman who used small pieces of wood to create palaces, vessels, figures, birds, and beasts.

Unfortunately, during his previous life, many legendary ancient crafts had disappeared into the depths of history.

Earlier, during the Mid-Autumn Festival, Li Jin had given Qin Muwen a wooden carving of a rabbit.

Qin Muwen liked it very much and insisted on carrying it with him every day. However, Li Jin eventually found it a bit cumbersome during their intimate moments, so he asked Qin Muwen to take it off at night and place it on the bedside table.

As soon as Li Jin stepped into the shop, his gaze was immediately drawn to a rather slender ribbon.

The ribbon was adorned with several beads, which seemed unremarkable at first glance. However, upon closer inspection, he noticed the delicate carvings on the surface of the first bead—a crouching rabbit with its ears perked up.

Looking closer, he realized that each bead featured a different carved representation of a rabbit, each one endearing in its own way.

Qin Muwen was born in the Year of the Rabbit, and he had a gentle and obedient demeanor, just like a little rabbit.

After making the purchase, Li Jin looked up at the sky and realized that it was getting late. He decided to leave the inner city directly and head back to the inn.

Li Jin felt that this ribbon was a perfect match for his beloved husband. He bought the ribbon, using the money that would have covered his accommodation for the night.

As for little bun, who was still too young to play with toys, Li Jin planned to bring gifts when he grew a little older.
(Little bun is translated as xiaobao but I like little bun more.. what do you think?)

Chen Xiran was downstairs, having his porridge. When he saw Li Jin approaching with a smile on his lips, he quickly finished his meal and asked, "It's been a long time since I've seen you this happy. Did you manage to find something good?"

Li Jin nodded. "Yes, it's for my spouse."

Since it was a gift for Qin Muwen, Chen Xiran didn't insist on seeing it. He simply remarked, "People change after getting married. I was worried before that your serious demeanor might frighten your husband."

However, in the end, all of Li Jin's tenderness and smiles were directed towards his husband.

Soon after, they packed their belongings and boarded the ox-cart.
