My Fantastic Chef Wife Chapter 271

Chapter 271 - An old and a Young

Xiao Baoshan, who was usually dull, suddenly said, “The person I like has always been you.”

Ye Xiaoxian, “…”

While she was in a daze, she was already lifted up by him. Then, he rode on the horse with her and hugged her from behind. “Ye, I want to ride the horse again with you.”

“…”

Ye Xiaoxian did not refuse. So he raised the whip and the horse happily galloped away.

It was the same feeling again. At first, it was so bumpy that she felt like her butt was aching. After adapting to the rhythm, she felt as if she was running into the wind.

And they were at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, where the horse could gallop on the meadow. So broad was the area that it was even happier for them to ride a horse than before.

Xiao Baoshan was so experienced in horseback riding that he could control the tempo in just a perfect way, as if he understood Ye Xiaoxian’s mind. He would slow down when they reached a place with a more beautiful scenery so that she could enjoy it.

Ye Xiaoxian’s spirits started soaring once again.

At this moment, she almost forgot all her troubles as she felt like flying up in the air, while behind her was a metal wall protecting her.

They didn’t know how far they had gone until they reached a flat grassy area. There was no one here nor any cow or sheep, but only colorful little flowers.

Xiao Baoshan stopped here and put Ye Xiaoxian down.

At this moment, she did not completely calm down, but was still immersed in the excitement of their horseback riding, while he stared at her in a daze.

The riding suddenly reminded him of something.

Last time, after they rode together, he kissed her.

This time, he had the same idea.

So he did it.

Ye Xiaoxian was caught off guard. Although she was surprised, at this moment, she couldn not think of any reason to reject him.

At first, she was only passively accepting it, but slowly she fell into it.

When he noticed that she did not refuse, he held her in his arms and pressed her against the meadow beneath.

Ye Xiaoxian was about to fall into it, but for some reason, Jin Xiaoyu vaguely emerged from her memory.

She pushed him away with the last trace of rationality, then asked a question that she had always wanted to ask, “Baoshan, have you… have you done something like this with Jin Xiaoyu?”

Xiao Baoshan paused.

He did it after he was drunk but could not remember how it was done. It was Jin Xiaoyu who told him after he woke up.

But he wasn’t stupid and could still remember parts of it.

Ye Xiaoxian saw his hesitation and was sure that she had done it.

She pushed him away and wiped the drools from her mouth, feeling angry and offended.

He had another woman before, so how could she accept him wholeheartedly?

Even if he lost his memory, so what? Just because he had lost his memory so he could do it with Jin Xiaoyu?

Xiao Baoshan knew that he did a wrong thing but did not explain. Rather, he just looked at her with care.

He might feel better if she hit him and shouted at him.

However, she only felt suffocated and pulled the grass off her side one by one before tearing it off.

……

On the way back, the two of them were still riding the same horse but neither of them spoke.

She was in a fit of pique but he did not dare to annoy her.

When they returned to the tribe, Li Hongmei and the rest were particularly happy. They heard that the two of them had gone horseback riding in the afternoon. Does it mean that their relationship had gone further?

However, neither of them spoke and the rest dared to ask.

Alas, it must be getting awkward again. After all, Xiao Baoshan did not know how to please women. It was such a good opportunity to push her down and force himself on her, but he let it slip away.

……

Longmen Inn.

Jin Xiaoyu had been drinking herself into oblivion for a long time.

Ever since Xiao Baoshan left her, she had been drinking every day – she drank at night and slept during the day. Aside from holding a treasure appraisal ceremony every month, she usually stayed in her room.

It was hard to fall in love with a man. She wanted him to stay by her side forever. But who knew, at this point, that his wife would come.

And he left with his wife without hesitation.

On the surface, she looked carefree; but in reality, her heart was filled with unwillingness, and only she knew how much she felt.

After having drank too much, she felt increasingly depressed. One night, she suddenly smashed the wine jar and scolded, “Hey, what kind of person am I! Beauty and intelligence, I both possess. Need I be together with a man with a wife? Need I get drunk like this?”

Having drunk and slept too much, she realized that the rims of her eyes were swollen. She was not even beautiful anymore.

Jin Xiaoyu regained her spirit, dressed up, practiced martial arts, received the monsters and freaks from far apart, and pretended to flirt with some men interested in her. Sometimes, she would suffer a small loss, but these men would not be able to take advantage of her.

One day, a few more guests came to the inn.

It was daytime and Jin Xiaoyu sat lazily in front of the counter. Intuitively, she felt that these people were not simply here for treasure appraisal.

They looked very cautious. After they entered the inn, they checked the place all around to make sure it was safe before they decided to settle down.

Of course, Jin Xiaoyu didn’t know what their so-called safety standards were. Maybe they cared about whether there were officers or soldiers here, or whether it was a gangster inn.

It was originally a gangster inn. But after Xiao Baoshan came, it was no longer the same.

“How many rooms do you want?” Jin Xiaoyu asked lazily.

“Two,” one of them said.

Jin Xiaoyu lazily shouted to Er Sha, “Er Sha, bring a few guests to the Tianzi room.”

They were all dressed in simple clothes but their dispositions did not fit in their cloches. Three of them looked like itinerant people, while the other two are an old man and a young boy. The old man looked terribly fatigued, and the young boy looked like seven or eight years old. He looked noble and was not shy that he even dared to look at Jin Xiaoyu right through his big eyes.

Jin Xiaoyu blinked at him. He even smiled at Jin Xiaoyu and said, “Hello, Sis.”

“Hello.”

The old man probably did not want to attract attention. He nodded politely to Jin Xiaoyu then urged the boy, “Little Xun, let’s go upstairs quickly. Don’t disturb this sister.”

“Okay!” Little Xun said mildly.

Jin Xiaoyu was disinterested in the three itinerant people, but was full of affection for the old man and the boy. She usually received rough people in the inn, so it was rare to receive two polite people like this.

After Er Sha settled them down, he came down and told Jin Xiaoyu that they wanted them to prepare dinner and asked if they could bring the dinner to the room, a few dishes were enough.

Jin Xiaoyu let Er Sha do it and bring it up to their room.

At the same time, she also told Er Sha to bring the pears that had just arrived yesterday to the old man and the boy.

……

Jin Xiaoyu was in contact with many guests. Although she was impressed by some people, she never took it seriously.

After those people went upstairs, she forgot about them, as always.

It wasn’t until later that someone came over to ask about the way to Baoning City, saying that he was going there to seek help from a friend. Jin Xiaoyu told him that he should go all the way west.

After asking Jin Xiaoyu, the person went upstairs and planned to leave early the next morning.

Jin Xiaoyu was about to calculate the accounts for the past few days when a little round head suddenly appeared beside her. It was the boy who checked in today.

The boy was holding a bamboo dragonfly toy in his hands. He handed the bamboo dragonfly to Jin Xiaoyu and said, “Sister, this is for you.”

“For me?” Why for me? How could you flirt with girls at such a young age?

The boy asked, “What does flirt with a girl mean?”

“…Well, it means trying to please young ladies. Are you trying to please me?”

The child said seriously, “No, my grandpa said that if you send us pear, then I should give you a bamboo dragonfly in return. That being said, one good turn deserves another.”

“Did your grandpa say that?” Jin Xiaoyu asked.

The child nodded again. “Yes, I’ve asked my grandpa. He said that I can give you the bamboo dragonfly, so I came down.”

Jin Xiaoyu pinched the child’s face and asked, “Where did you come from? Also fleeing for safety?”

“No, we’re playing a game,” the boy answered.

“Playing a game?! What game?”

“The Game of Cat and Mouse. Grandpa and I are now acting as rats and are being chased by the cat. If we are able to hide, then we will win,” the boy answered seriously.

Jin Xiaoyu realized they were being chased for a kill.

Nevertheless, it was interesting to describe chasing and killing as a game.

“Who told you that you guys were playing games?” Jin Xiaoyu asked again.

“My grandpa. But I don’t like this game very much. It’s too scary. My parents didn’t manage to escape. I didn’t want to play it since a long time ago. But my grandpa said that if we win, I will get a reward. As for what reward, I’m not sure. Anyway, it can be done regardless of the reward.”

Jin Xiaoyu’s heart suddenly softened.

Mom and dad didn’t manage to escape. Doesn’t it mean they were dead?

That was why that his grandfather still had the time and patience to comfort the child, and did teach the child to take revenge. For average parents, they would definitely tell him to take avenge for his parents when he grew up.

Jin Xiaoyu smiled, “Actually, there are rewards along the way. For example, when you arrive at my place, I have to give you a reward. The pear I gave you before is also a reward. Oh right, there are some apples in the kitchen. I’ll let someone give you some later.”

The child clapped his hands and said, “Okay! Thank you, Sis! You’re so nice. I haven’t met anyone as nice as you on my way.”

“Little thing, you can even make people happy.”

The old man went downstairs as Jin Xiaoyu finished speaking. The old man spoke loudly, “Little Xun, it’s time to come back.”

Little Xun quickly ran towards his grandfather.

The old man said to Jin Xiaoyu politely, “Sorry to bother you, young lady.”

“No worries,” Jin Xiaoyu replied indifferently.

The old man did not want to talk much. After a simple salute, he took Little Xun’s hand and went back to the room.

On the way to his room, Little Xun even turned back and smiled at Jin Xiaoyu. Such a cute face he had.

Jin Xiaoyu felt that her heart was softented by him.

……

In the middle of the night, Jin Xiaoyu was woken up and San Sha shouted out loud from the outside, “It’s on fire! It’s on fire!”

She suddenly jumped up from the bed.

Just as she was about to get up to see what was going on, a fiery arrow suddenly shot towards her window.

Someone was attacking the inn!

When she woke up again, she found herself become a peasant’s wife…

Aunts constantly came to bully her families, and there were crazy relatives seeking troubles.

Do they really think her strong husband was just a decoration or something?

Her “decorative” husband: “when we get everything done, how will my fantastic chef wife thank me?”

“Braised chicken, stewed eel, sesame butter roll, fried meat with fermented bean curd, roasted pheasant…just name it!”

He gave her a smirk and said, “Tonight, I want something different…”
