3 Selling Crops and Livestock (1/2)
Yan Xiu and Lu Hao slowly making their way toward the village entrance, the guards called out to them when they drew near. The guards smiled when they saw the cute scene of Yan Xiu wearing his cat-eared hoodie while riding a pig.
” little Xiu, here's to sale your harvest? ”
” un. ” (MC)
” I see. well, go on then. Aunt Ye and uncle Lu probably already waiting for you. ”
” thank you, uncle. ” (MC)
Yan Xiu smiled as he waved at them when he past them, one of the guard looked at Lu Hao sternly and said.
” pull the wagon carefully, make sure little Xiu doesn't fall. ”
” why are you being stern only to me?! ” (LH)
Lu Hao was speechless, he pulled it very carefully alright? and even if Yan Xiu did fall, he was a second stage Qi Refinement cultivator okay? if the fall from a pig's back could hurt a cultivator at that stage, he should just quit being a cultivator!
Lu Hao pulled the wagon while grumbling but he still make sure he pulled it gently, Yan Xiu was giggling on the pig's back. Everytime a villager saw them, the villager would call out to them and the two of them would reply back. The village was small but the people was kind and cared for each other like a big family. The wooden houses and greenery in the village gave the village a being one with the nature feeling.
Most of the men were working on the field and the women doing house chores, the kids was playing and the more diligent one was either helping their parent or cultivating. The kids that saw Yan Xiu riding the pig followed him and said that they want to ride the pig too. The Six Feet Pig might be the lowest tier of beast but it still strong enough to let a few kids rode on it's back.
Yan Xiu let them rode the pig in turn with him holding them from behind. When the reached aunt Ye store, Yan Xiu jumped down from the pig and took the vegetable basket on the wagon and Lu Hao called aunt Ye. A middle aged lady came out from the store after Lu Hao called out, the lady glared at Lu Hao.
” do you have to shout so loud? I'm not deaf. ”
Lu Hao wanted to cry, he just called her normally, when did he shout out loud? when aunt Ye saw Yan Xiu picking up the vegetable basket, she rushed toward him and stopped, she also lightly reprimand him.
” aiya, what are you doing little Xiu? you should left this heavy lifting to an adult. hey, what are you doing dazing there? quickly pick this up and take it to the measurement stone! ” (AY)
” ..... ” (LH)
Lu Hao felt like an old wife that fell out of favor, he remembered that aunt Ye doted on him before but now he had grown up and Yan Xiu appeared, he was forgotten and she doted on Yan Xiu now. Cowering before aunt Ye's authoritative glare, Lu Hao carried the vegetable basket to the measurement stone. Yan Xiu was smiling on the surface but he was rolling on the ground laughing in his mind. While he didn't hate Lu Hao, he kept a little grudge against him.
Yan Xiu's three most hated people was from the bottom to top, people who disturb him, people who vandalized his things, and the top was people who took his food. Lu Hao filled the third and first criteria, because of that Yan Xiu was pleased when his in trouble.
” as expected of little Xiu's vegetable, it has such a nice color and luster! the taste and size is nice too! and the most important thing, it contained quite a lot of Qi in it! ” (AY)
True to it's name, the Fire Tomato was crimson in color like a ball of fire and the stalk was yellow in color. Aunt Ye bite into one of the tomato and a burst of fresh spicy and sour taste permeated her mouth and inside the flurry of taste was the gentle Qi of Spirit Vegetable. Spirit Vegetable was a term for any vegetable that contains Qi. Spirit Vegetable's Qi was gentle in nature and such very easy to absorb and nourishing for cultivator and mortal.
Yan Xiu also sold his eggs to aunt Ye, Yan Xiu earned a lot with both Fire Tomato and the Rainbow-tailed Chicken eggs.
