Chapter 865: 865, third brother, you are not stupid
With that, she handed him a key.
He toyed with the key in his hand, “Wife, you’re really kind. You used to want to poison me to death, but now you’re so good to me.”
She rolled her eyes, “Who wanted to poison you to death? I just said it casually, and you crazily drank the poison.”
He looked pitifully at her, “How dare I not do what my wife asks me to do?”
She raised an eyebrow, “So now it’s my fault?”
He quickly started massaging her shoulders, “The wife is right. How could my precious wife make a mistake? If there’s a mistake, it’s definitely mine…”
She scoffed, “Brown-noser!”
“Hehe…” He laughed with a grin, his bright white teeth almost blinding her.
Jealous of his teeth, she asked, “Third brother, how come your teeth are so white? Did you secretly use some secret recipe? Tell me about it.”
“No, no,” he said. “I used to just brush with plain water, sometimes with a bit of salt. Ever since you made that medicinal mud toothpaste, I’ve been using it.”
“I can lie to anyone but not to my wife.”
She muttered, “Second brother and fourth brother use the same teeth cleaning method, but their teeth aren’t as white as yours.”
“That’s true,” Xiao Yuchuan stroked his chin, “Many in the village with rotten teeth think I have a teeth cleaning secret recipe. I really don’t; it must be natural.”
“I really wonder how the Xiao Family’s genes are, only your teeth are white.” She almost cursed out loud, they were not only white but also neat; it made her want to pull out his teeth.
“Wife, what are genes?”
“Genes support the basic structure and function of life; reproduction and all life phenomena are related to genes. They are also an internal factor determining the health of life…” She blurted out a long string of terms in modern professional jargon and concluded, “Such a complicated issue, you wouldn’t understand.”
He raised his eyebrows, “Isn’t it just that a man’s sperm and a woman’s sperm determine the quality of the child, and that birth, aging, sickness, and death are all related to genetic quality? Wife, why do you have to make such a simple issue so complex?”
“…” That bastard spoke plain language perfectly. She was speechless, her sense of professional superiority shattered into pieces, and she snorted coldly, “Third brother, is your brain considered dumb?”
“You just realized that?” He glanced at the key in his hand, “ key is redundant. As long as you allow me into this pharmacy, it makes no difference whether there is a key or not.”
He scratched his head, “Wife, I might not have any other skills, but unlocking, I am the fastest. I can open a regular lock in an instant.”
She looked at him, not quite believing.
“Don’t believe me? Come, I’ll show you.” He walked to the door, took off the lock head, walked up to her, closed the lock head, and pulled a thin iron wire from his hair band. He inserted it into the keyhole and, in just a moment, unlocked the lock head.
She uttered two words, “Unlocking so quickly, hiding iron wire professionally… thief.”
His face soured, “Wife, I’m wrongly accused. I don’t steal things. Over the years, as I’ve been traveling from village to village carrying goods, I’ve seen some old locksmiths fixing and unlocking, and I remembered the methods — opening a lock is quite simple. Storing the iron wire in the hair band, it just helps to fix the hair to look more stylish. Didn’t you notice that even though we both tie our hair with a square cloth, your husband’s hair looks nicer?”
