C15 (1/2)

As Xiaowan ate her buns, she inadvertently saw Ling Chaofeng. Seeming a little guilty, she pretended not to see it and deliberately carried him on her back.

Aunt Zhang walked out and said, ”Shopkeeper, after breakfast, we will be going to town.”

Ling Chaofeng nodded, ”Go early and come back early.”

Xiaowan finished the steamed bun in her hand slowly, then turned around. The person had already left.

Not long after, Ershan got a carriage and they put a tray of buns on the carriage. The Aunt Zhang and the Xiaowan sat inside the carriage and watched as the carriage was opened.

The carriage leisurely drove towards Baisha Town. Aunt Zhang even grabbed two oranges when she left the house and leisurely skinned them to give to Xiaowan. Xiaowan was stunned for a moment and did not dare to pick them up.

Her aunt asked her, ”Won't you eat the white tendons? If you eat the fire.”

Xiaowan took the tangerine and held it in her hands as she continued to peel it. Suddenly, she heard young lady say: ”These few days, I have been eating a lot of good things every day. If I can't eat them in the future, I will be very sad.”

”How can it not be eaten? As long as you like it, you can eat it every day.” The Aunt Zhang laughed, ”This is also not a good thing, it's just a common food.”

Xiaowan laughed as she tore an orange and placed it in her mouth. She had sour, sweet and juicy taste, completely removing all the fat from the meat buns that she had eaten. She had eaten orange before when she was young and had almost forgotten the taste of oranges.

Aunt Zhang was eating an orange. Seeing that the young lady was deep in thought, she thought about what she had said just now and asked: ”Evening, do you still want to run? When we get to town, will you run? ”

Xiaowan quickly waved her hands, ”Aunt, I won't run. I … I promise Manager Ling to wait for my father to come pick me up.”

Aunt Zhang thought for a moment, then asked: ”So you still have to leave. Evening, are you that unwilling to marry into our shopkeeper?”

Xiaowan lowered her head, holding onto the orange, unwilling to eat it.

”Do you believe my aunt?”

”Yes.” The Xiaowan nodded.

”Didn't I tell you? We don't sell meat buns, we don't kill people, and we don't rob people. We do business properly, not undercover shops.” The Aunt Zhang patiently and gently said, ”The shopkeeper is a good person, and a good man. ”And you being so beautiful and obedient, it's his fortune to marry you. What a good couple, why don't you want to marry them?”

”But …” The Xiaowan was speechless, that's right, if it wasn't a black shop, if Ling Chaofeng didn't kill people to steal their goods, why wouldn't she marry him?

”With regards to the Mrs. Sun, you'll understand in a few days.” Aunt Zhang rubbed her head, ”I've seen it a lot in the shop, so you won't be surprised. If you trust me, look carefully at our shopkeeper, and see if he is someone worthy for me to entrust. ”Moreover, you two have already gotten married. If he were to divorce you, how will you marry in the future? If you don't marry and stay at home, your …”

When Xiaowan saw that Aunt Zhang had suddenly stopped, she reached out and gently lifted her sleeves, and said with a pained heart: ”I know that you were tied up on the day of your marriage with a wound on your wrist, but I didn't know that you still have a wound on your arm. Mrs. Sun asked me why, but how could I answer that? Poor child, if you go home, won't you be abused by her again? ”

Xiaowan's eyes were hazy with tears and she said grievingly: ”Aunt, even if my father comes, he must be trying to persuade me to be more obedient. He won't take me away after following Manager Ling for a long time.”

She knew better than anyone that her own father did not care about her. If he only cared about her, how could he let her be mistreated at home for more than ten years? In the past, even if she purposely showed him her scars, he would pretend not to see them.

Aunt Zhang took a handkerchief and wiped her tears, saying, ”Since you know about it, what else do I need?”

Xiaowan was stunned. Yes, what did she expect?

The Aunt Zhang smiled and said: ”Look, you've run past and cried too. I saw a bite mark on the shopkeeper's wrist, did you bite it?”

Xiaowan's face flushed red. She laughed and said, ”If the shopkeeper was a bad person, could he possibly allow you to go through so much trouble? Broke your legs. ”

That's right, Ling Chaofeng was very fierce, but he had never even touched his.

Very quickly, they reached the Baisha Town. Xiaowan was no longer crying, instead she leaned on the window and looked outside. She noticed that when the passersby saw the carriage containing the Ling Xiao Inn, they all stopped to look, or to point in groups of three or five, and everyone's eyes flashed with a sense of curiosity.

The horse carriage stopped at the end of the bridge. Ershan and Uncle Biao jumped off the carriage and neatly and familiarly set up a stall.

In the blink of an eye, the steamed buns had been steamed and the hot fragrance of the steamed buns was drifting in the wind. Uncle Biao stood at the top of the bridge with his hands on his hips and shouted to the passersby, ”Sell the steamed buns!”

Xiaowan stood at the side, looking at the people who were passing by, many of them seemed to be afraid of Uncle Biao, they would stay far away from the bridge once they got off, and there were even some who did not dare to go onto the bridge, muttering in their hearts, could this steamed bun be sold?

But very quickly, a regular customer came over and bought ten steamed buns in one go. He even exchanged a few words with the Uncle Biao and sized his up with a new gaze.

Xiaowan used to rarely go out, so it was inevitable that she would be shy when she was looked at by so many people.
