Chapter 27: Your Whole Family Are Ladies

Candied hawthorns did indeed sell well in the county, consumption levels were higher than in town, and wandering around, she'd nearly sold them all.

"Fourth brother, you wait here for me, keep selling on your own, I'm going to find a toilet." Xiaoxiao was speechless; she had already tried to drink less water, but still couldn't hold it in, a short trip to the town was okay, but back and forth to the county was too far.

"You go ahead, I'll wait for you right here at this doorway," Yang Dong pointed to a sign nearby.

Xiaoxiao looked up and oh dear mother, why was it Yulin Academy? This Yang Dong absolutely had to be doing this on purpose. Never mind that, she had to take care of her emergency!

Xiaoxiao finally found a household after making several turns and borrowed their toilet. On her way back, she felt someone following her. She walked briskly to the corner and waited for the right moment. As soon as she sensed someone around the corner, she immediately started punching and kicking the newcomer, all the while shouting.

"You perverted freak, disgusting pervert, shameless, I'll knock your teeth out for following me!"

"Dare to stalk me now, huh?" Xiaoxiao kept beating the man who was holding his head!

"Oh my, Miss, please stop hitting, I am just a student from the academy ahead, I just share this path with you!"

Xiaoxiao paused for a moment when she heard the man's words, but still didn't believe him and continued to beat him up, "Who are you calling Miss? You're the Miss, your whole family's Misses!"

The man got angry, "You shrew..." He lifted his head as if to retaliate. But the instant he saw Xiaoxiao, his expression turned to one of surprise, "It's you!"

"You know me?"

"I am from Shibao Town, studying at the Yulin Academy up ahead. You must be from Shibao Town too, right? I've seen you in the Bookstore in town."

"Oh, so what!" Xiaoxiao thought, so what if he was studying here, it had nothing to do with her, a pervert who stalked people deserved to be beaten.

"Miss, you really misunderstood, I'm not stalking you, I'm truly just walking the same path," the man saw that Xiaoxiao hadn't let down her guard at all and quickly explained.

"If you don't believe me, we can go to the Academy to prove it, I'm really a scholar there."

"Alright, alright, I'll trust you for now, no need to prove anything." Go to the Academy to prove it? No way, what if she brought out that Yang Ming by accident, she was in a hurry to get away!

"Thank you, Miss!" The man made a fist with both hands, bowed deeply, truly the image of a well-mannered scholar.

"Miss, how come you're in this county!" Seeing Xiaoxiao walk towards the Academy, the man started making conversation.

Xiaoxiao didn't speak, just kept walking forward. Seeing Yang Dong, she shouted, "Fourth brother, let's head back!"

"What is this for sale?" The man saw Xiaoxiao was leaving, noticed the man with Xiaoxiao holding a target seeming to sell something, and quickly inquired.

"Young master, this is a new kind of snack made by our family, called candied hawthorn, sweet on the outside and sour in the middle, very appetizing. Would you like to buy a skewer to try? Five coins each," Yang Dong hastily pitched.

The man turned around and asked Xiaoxiao upon hearing Yang Dong's words, "Did you make this?"

Xiaoxiao didn't respond, but her gaze seemed to say, if it's not me who made it, then did you?

"Give me the last few skewers! Just right to let my classmates taste!"

"Alright, here you go! Twenty-five coins."

Seeing the sale was complete, Xiaoxiao walked away directly, with Yang Dong following close behind him, muttering softly, "Not going to see third brother?"

Xiaoxiao glanced back, "See what third brother!"

Leaving the man alone to brave the cold wind, he cracked a mischievous smile, "Such an interesting woman, she's quite spirited this time!"
