Chapter 169: The Ximen family
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
These people were attendants of the Ximen family.
When they had gone out with Lady Zhou and Lady Wen, they also met the Ximen family’s people. At that time, Grandaunt had reminded them very seriously that the Ximen family had a feud with the Nangong family. If they met them in the future, they must not come into direct contact with them to avoid being at a disadvantage. If there was anything, it was better to leave it to the adults to deal with.
If Su Ye had come out on his own today, he would not have cared whether the person in front of him was from the Ximen family or not. As long as they dared to find trouble with him, he would definitely not be polite.
But now, Su Ye looked at his sister beside him and instinctively tightened his grip on her hand. “I’m sorry. Our parents are still waiting for us ahead. We have to hurry and find them.”
“Stop!” A young girl dressed luxuriously with a head full of pearls suddenly rushed over and blocked the siblings. She looked to be about ten years old and had a delicate face. Unfortunately, her eyes were harsh and ruined the beauty of her face. “Stop lying. I’ve been staring at you two for a while. You don’t have parents at all. Don’t think you can fool me!”
“What exactly do you want?” Su Qingqing asked warily as she clutched Gray Fatty tightly in her arms.
“Wanwan, look at you. Why did you rush out just like that? Quick, come to Mother.” Madam Ximen, Lady Yang, walked forward and gently hugged Ximen Wanwan’s shoulders. She looked at the siblings and said, “Children, we’re not bad people. It’s just that my daughter likes this gray rabbit in your hands. I’m willing to offer a hundred taels of silver to buy this rabbit of yours.”
The rabbit made a chirping sound. Su Qian had specially instructed Gray Fatty not to speak in front of outsiders, so Gray Fatty could only express its dissatisfaction in this way.
The sound seemed to be saying, “Look at what she’s saying! What does it mean by a hundred silver taels? It was so n.o.ble and beautiful. How could it be sold for just a hundred taels of silver? This old lady was clearly insulting it!”
When Gray Fatty showed its head, Ximen Wanwan couldn’t take her eyes off it. She hurriedly urged Lady Yang, “Mother, quickly give me that rabbit.”
“It’s just a rabbit. Hurry up and buy it before looking for Ran’er.” At this moment, the young man who had been standing beside the mother and daughter suddenly spoke.
Su Ye looked at this young man warily. He could clearly sense that this young man’s strength was the strongest among these people.
“Did you hear that? My Eldest Brother wants you to sell the rabbit to us quickly!” Ximen Wanwan pointed at the siblings’ noses and said, “I know why you paupers are dawdling here just to get some silver. Well, here’s the deal. I’ll give you three hundred taels of silver, and give us the rabbit.”
Curious onlookers had gathered around. When they heard Ximen Wanwan offer three hundred taels of silver, they thought ATiss Ximen was truly extravagant. Three hundred taels of silver to buy a rabbit, she was really generous.
Su Qingqing held Gray Fatty tightly in her arms and spoke with a soft and gentle voice, “We’re not selling! Gray Fatty is my good friend. No matter how much money you offer, I won’t sell Gray Fatty to you.”
“So, you think the money is not enough?” Lady Yang snorted coldly. “I didn’t expect you to be so greedy at such a young age. Alright, 1’11 add another two hundred taels. Five hundred taels of silver should be enough for you to buy a few hundred rabbits. You should be satisfied..”
