Substitute Bride: The Gentle Husband of the Evil Girl is Crazy and Wild
Chapter 82 The Man Behind the Scenes
Li Xiaoyu delivered the Guokui to the restaurant. She made a few extra Guokui and as it was still early, she planned to sell them together with the steamed buns.
She first walked around the city.
As he walked, he shouted at the top of his voice: "Pot cakes, steamed buns, and mantou are delicious."
Most families eat porridge in the morning, and soon someone called her, "Come here, the pot-cake seller, I want to buy some."
"Come on, come on."
She ran over with a backpack on her back, at a brisk pace.
As she walked through the alleys, she sold a lot of food in her basket.
The sun gradually rose higher in the sky. She put the backpack on a step, lifted the cloth covering it and counted the number.
There are about ten pot cakes left, and a lot of steamed buns left.
I should be able to sell all the goods by hawking along the way home, thinking this, she picked up the basket and walked out of the city.
Just as I was about to leave, I saw a ragged little boy in the alley staring at me eagerly. I followed his gaze and glanced into the backpack.
Then you know what the child wants.
"Sister...sister, can you...give...me a steamed bun?"
The child was too thin, and Li Xiaoyu couldn't tell his age. Listening to his timid childish voice, she pursed her lips and took a deep breath.
"Come and get it."
He put the backpack back down and took out a steamed bun first.
When he walked out of the alley, Li Xiaoyu discovered that the child's clothes were torn into a backless style.
After thinking about it, he took another pot cake and a steamed bun.
When he came closer, looking at his eyes that had lost their color due to being tortured by life, she gave him the three kinds of food at once.
When the little guy saw so much food, he didn’t dare to take it with his dirty little hands.
"Sister, one steamed bun will do."
Li Xiaoyu stuffed everything into his arms and said indifferently: "I'm not a loving person either."
She put the cloth back on, picked up the backpack and stood up.
He looked down at the flattered little guy and said calmly, "Next time you see me going into town to sell things, if you ask me for food again, I might not give it to you."
"Find a place to hide and eat by yourself, be careful not to be snatched away by others."
After saying that, she walked towards the city gate without looking back.
The little boy stuffed the steamed buns and pot cakes into his clothes and ate them ravenously.
He looked at the woman in coarse linen clothes who was gradually disappearing from his sight, and his eyes suddenly became red.
Sister, I will remember your kindness.
The woman didn't take his life-saving act seriously.
Li Xiaoyu was almost at the city gate when he suddenly heard Li Wu's old smoke-soaked voice: "Haha, let's go. Come back next time."
She turned around and saw him coming out of a teahouse.
There was a carriage parked in front of him, and just when he was about to get on the carriage, he saw Li Xiaoyu.
Seeing this unfilial daughter staring at him as if watching a show, he touched his front teeth and then displayed his father's dignity.
He cursed, "It's unlucky to meet you so early in the morning."
His voice was not loud and Li Xiaoyu's hearing was not as sensitive as Gu Fei's. She did not understand Li Wu's lip movements, but from his expression, she could guess that it was not a good thing.
He curled up the corners of his mouth and sneered, showing an indifferent expression.
She didn't leave immediately. Thinking of the person behind Li Wu, she wanted to see which direction the carriage was going.
Maybe there's some clues behind him.
When the time comes, I will tell Gu Jiaojiao and this will provide him with some lifeline.
At this time, the people in the carriage heard Li Wu's words, lifted a corner of the window curtain in the carriage, and looked at her from a perspective that Li Xiaoyu could not see.
Seeing that it was an ordinary-looking peasant girl, he asked the man who was about to come up.
"Do you know that woman?"
Li Wu did not dare to hide anything. After entering the carriage and unpacking his luggage, he said respectfully, "She is my third daughter."
Hearing this, the man looked at the woman who was also looking at the carriage. Seeing that she narrowed her eyes slightly, he asked Li Wu: "How is the situation going?"
Li Wu was so happy thinking that he would get the money again soon.
The voices were dancing: "It's going smoothly, everything is under control."
Hearing this, the man did not ask any more questions, but just told the driver: "Let's go."
As the carriage slowly came towards him, Li Xiaoyu noticed a pair of eyes looking at him from behind the curtain.
She took a step back and folded her hands over her stomach.
Act respectful.
As the carriage passed by, she raised her head slowly. The wind blew open the curtains, and her slender and seemingly dexterous left hand rested casually on the window frame.
When she saw the scar on the back of her hand, she frowned silently.
Then she immediately lowered her head to hide her expression.
Hearing the sound of the wheels gradually fading away, she raised her head and saw the carriage leaving the city gate.
He followed without hesitation.
There were three roads outside the city, each leading to a different place. She strode after them and looked around quickly.
Just as the carriage was about to disappear from sight, she caught a glimpse of a shadow.
She looked at the road under her feet, thought for a moment, and walked to a sign next to it, which showed where each road led to or passed.
The road that Li Wu took to leave in carriage passed through several villages.
The counties they passed were Zhuxi County and Yucheng County. She bit her inner lip lightly, walked to the intersection again and looked in the direction they left.
She made no conclusion.
He whispered to himself, "Wait until Li Wu comes back, and then ask him tomorrow and you'll know."
Putting aside her doubts, she went back to the city to buy some onion and garlic seeds, and then walked back home, shouting slogans and selling food as she walked.
When they arrived at the village entrance, there were only two steamed buns left and about five or six dumplings left.
Gu Fei likes to eat buns, so she didn’t sell them in the village. She planned to take them back and heat them up for him.
She walked towards the village, and was greeted by a handsome man leading a pair of twins.
This person was none other than the idiot Wang Qian whom she had mentioned last time, and he was holding the hands of his twin brother and sister. As soon as the two little guys saw her, they hid behind Wang Qian.
It was because the original owner had gone to his house to steal chickens and knocked on their heads before leaving.
Warn them not to tell anyone.
This caused the twins to hide from her as if she were a wild dog.
Li Xiaoyu also felt embarrassed. She touched her nose, glanced at the two frightened little guys, and walked away by herself.
Seeing that she was hiding from them, Wang Qian looked at her twice.
He didn't say anything and you couldn't tell he was a fool until they walked away in the opposite direction.
He then said stupidly: "She seems to be very afraid of us."
Listening to his brother's silly and naive words, the boy of the twins snorted unhappily: "She is guilty as a thief."
"What did she steal? Her sister is so nice, why would she steal something?"
The two children did not dare tell him about the chicken being stolen, not because they were afraid that Wang Qian would not avenge them.
He was afraid that one day Wang Qian would go to do farm work and Li Xiaoyu would sneak back home to take revenge on him.
The two little guys looked at each other and said in unison: "Her sister is a good person, but that doesn't mean she is a good person."
"Brother, let's go into the city and sell things."
Wang Qian turned around and looked in the direction Li Xiaoyu left.
Although he had a lower IQ than the average person, a woman with a sweet smile popped up in his mind.
