Chapter 14 Xia Xiaoyue
Chapter 14 Xia Xiaoyue
Xia Xiaoyue was always very kind to the original owner of this body. Even after she got married, she would come back to visit and chat with the original owner from time to time. She would also bring her some snacks, saying that they were bought for her by her husband, Liu Daneng, and would talk about all the good things Liu Daneng had done for her.
Basically, he just flaunted their affection in front of her.
Yunyi now finds it laughable, but the original owner of this body is extremely envious. Xia Tianyin is a very straightforward man who is usually quiet and only knows how to work silently. Therefore, the original owner is dissatisfied with him and is very envious of Xia Xiaoyue.
Xia Xiaoyue felt sympathy for the original owner of the body and even felt indignant on her behalf. Her first point was that since the original owner was so beautiful, Xia Tianyin should have made her wear gold and silver. Then she showed off her silver earrings and silver bracelets.
Especially after the original owner told her about her background, she came over even more frequently, constantly urging the original owner to return to the capital. Why should a young lady like her suffer in this poor mountain village? She also encouraged the original owner to cause trouble for the Xia family.
The original owner wasn't stupid, but she was foolish enough, or rather, she was obsessed enough. She was really led by the nose by Xia Xiaoyue. First, she made a fuss with Xia Tianyin, demanding good food and clothes. Fortunately, Xia Tianyin knew how to hunt, so he could basically satisfy her. But later, after Xia Tianyin disappeared, she became furious and instigated the children to steal. When the children refused, she started beating and scolding them. In the end, she even considered selling the children.
In short, one was bad and the other was stupid, which led to the original owner's untimely death and her arrival.
"Sister Xiaoyue, I didn't notice earlier." Yunyi smiled. "What do you want to talk to me about?" Now is not the time to completely break off relations. After all, she needs to figure out why Xia Xiaoyue tricked the original owner. She feels that there is someone behind the other party. Moreover, since she did not sell the child this time, they will definitely have other tricks up their sleeves.
"How could you forget so quickly? Didn't we agree the day before yesterday that you would bring Er Ya and San Ya over today? I've already spoken with the people at Bai Xiang Lou, and they'll give them ten taels of silver for each of them. They don't mind that they're disfigured and lame..."
"I don't remember agreeing to that, do I?" Yun Yi frowned. There was no Bai Xiang Lou in the town, and this name sounded like a brothel. It must be in the county town.
The original owner of this body had never been to Kang'an County, so naturally she didn't know anything about it.
"Fang Yunyi, what do you mean?" Xia Xiaoyue's face darkened. "Are you playing me for a fool?"
"Sister Xiaoyue, when did I play a trick on you?" Yunyi looked aggrieved. "I did think about it, but my family didn't agree. I even fought with them over it, and then..." Her eyes reddened as she spoke, "and I ended up hurting my head."
"Are you alright?"
"It's alright." Yunyi shook her head. "So, let's not talk about this anymore; it's never a good idea."
"But so many kids are just a burden to you."
"I know, I... never mind, I can still go into the mountains to find some prey now, and I can still make a living."
"Yunyi, you're not thinking of giving up on your fate, are you?"
"What can I do if I don't accept my fate?" Yunyi laughed. "However, I think I'm pretty lucky. I brought back some good stuff from this trip into the mountains, so things are bound to get better."
"Tsk, what good stuff can you possibly get?" Xia Xiaoyue scoffed. "But you should really think about it. There are so many mouths to feed. Even if you get some wild vegetables and mushrooms, it won't fill their stomachs. Why should a rich young lady like you suffer like this?"
"We'll talk about it later, Sister Xiaoyue. I'm going to sell what I got first, then we'll chat again." Yunyi waved her hand and walked away.
Xia Xiaoyue wanted to say something, but the other person had already gone far away. She wanted to chase after her, but thinking that someone was waiting for her, she gave up for the time being and turned around and hurriedly walked in another direction. After turning around and entering a courtyard, she took a deep breath. She felt that Yunyi was different from before, but she couldn't put her finger on what was different.
"Why did it take you so long?" A large hand reached out and wrapped around his waist. "I missed you so much." Then he carried him into the house and began to unbutton his clothes.
"Get out of the way, you bastard." Xia Xiaoyue slapped the other person.
"What's wrong? Is it not going well?" The man didn't let go of her hand, but he stopped what he was doing.
"Fang Yunyi changed her mind."
"Hmm? She doesn't want to go back to the capital?"
"Brother Aniu, I'm starting to doubt if what she said is true." Xia Xiaoyue pouted. "Do you really think a young lady from a marquis's or earl's family could be so easily sold off?"
"Well, you're right."
"I actually believed what she said before." Xia Xiaoyue took a deep breath. "I thought she was really a poor girl from a wealthy family who had fallen on hard times, and I wasted so many of my snacks."
“What does it matter? If she won’t sell those kids, we can sell her.” Lai Aniu laughed, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes.
"What do you mean?"
"That Fang woman is quite good-looking."
"Fine, I knew you were after her. So what? Do you want me to bring her to your bed?" Xia Xiaoyue immediately bristled. "Then don't bother me again."
“Listen to me,” Lai Aniu said, grabbing Xia Xiaoyue’s hand. “Think about it. Those bastards only cost five or six taels each at Baixianglou. They’d be even cheaper if they had defects. But Fang Shi can start serving customers right away. With her looks, we could get at least thirty taels.”
"Thirty taels? That much?" Xia Xiaoyue's eyes widened in surprise.
"So, this still depends on you." Liu Daniu's hands groped and rubbed Xia Xiaoyue's body.
"Okay, I'll go back to my parents' house in a bit to see if anything has happened these past two days." Xia Xiaoyue's body went weak from the other person's teasing, but thinking that Liu Daneng was coming back today, she gritted her teeth and pushed his hand away. "Wait for my news." She then got up.
"You should at least eat your fill before you leave." The man pulled down his pants. "It's been waiting for you for so long, are you really going to let it go hungry?"
Xia Xiaoyue was immediately captivated by the sight of it; she hadn't done it for many days and had been wanting to for a long time.
"I knew you'd like it, so I've been saving the class for you these past few days."
"Then be gentle...don't leave any marks..." Xia Xiaoyue reminded him, "What if...Liu Daneng sees it...that wouldn't be good...um..."
"Don't worry, even if that good-for-nothing Liu Daneng finds out, he won't dare to do anything."
……
Meanwhile, Yunyi, carrying a basket on her back, had already arrived at the entrance of Renxintang.
Before she arrived, the original owner of this body had spent half a month indulging in food and drink in the town, so she was naturally very familiar with the town's situation.
There are three pharmacies in this town. Renxintang and Huichuntang are national chains headquartered in Beijing and are quite large. The other one is much smaller, but it has been around for more than ten years.
