Chapter 1398 - 1400: Truly Worthy of the Title "Beauty
Just before reaching the place, we found the road blocked.
Not far from Lan Hua Aunt’s house, it seemed like two horse-drawn carts carrying corn had blocked the way, and people in front were arguing about something.
Xiaoxiao, holding her child, walked over.
Upon seeing the situation, Xiaoxiao guessed roughly what had happened: the two carts had somehow collided. With the collision, the wooden plank holding corn in the rear compartment had been shaken off.
This shake wasn’t the issue; the corn on the cart had also cascaded to the ground.
Logically, this wasn’t a big problem, and there were no casualties. Each family could just load their corn back onto their carts. The issue was that the corn scattered on the ground merged together, and since Lan Hua Aunt liked to take advantage, she insisted on taking the corn that had fallen to the ground, thus causing both parties to quarrel.
The other party seemed to be hired by the wealthy family, and the cart owner angrily said, "Don’t be too outrageous, it’s quite clear that the corn on the ground is in two piles. Each family should take their own."
"Hey, what you’re saying isn’t right. That’s clearly one pile, all from our cart. Didn’t you see that there’s barely any corn left on our cart?" Lan Hua Aunt obstinately replied, frustrating the other party.
Unable to win the argument, the other party turned to a companion and said, "Go get our miss."
As for Lan Hua Aunt’s business, Xiaoxiao had no desire to get involved. It was obvious, and getting involved seemed like not giving Lan Hua Aunt face, especially as the two families were in-laws.
The reason for staying here out of interest was purely curiosity about the miss from the wealthy family. Xiaoxiao wanted to see the reputed beauty that the elderly kept talking about.
Soon enough, the miss from the wealthy family came, followed by a maid.
Looking over, Xiaoxiao saw skin as fair as snow, with a rosy complexion, clear eyes, a slightly high nose bridge, and a small delicate mouth. These features combined surprisingly well.
As for her figure, it was slim, with curves in all the right places, undeniably a superb figure.
Such a person truly earns the title of a beauty.
But her outline seemed so familiar, like someone I’d seen before?
No time for further thoughts as her voice was heard. The miss seemed to have listened to her family’s worker’s description. After examining the scene, she spoke, "Auntie, the two carts collided, causing the corn to scatter on the ground. Although the corn is merged, it’s clear that these are two piles, and we can each take our own."
"Miss, how can you say they are two piles? That’s clearly one pile. Look, look at how little corn is left on our cart." Lan Hua Aunt pointed at the other party’s corn pile, shouting, "The corn on the edge must also be from our cart."
Though Lan Hua Aunt was being unreasonable, the other party still maintained a polite tone, "Auntie, firstly, it was your horse that acted up and collided with our cart, causing the corn to fall. Secondly, even if as you say some of your corn did fall into our pile, there should be plenty in the middle of the two piles. But you see, there’s clearly very little corn in the middle, indicating your corn didn’t quite fall into our pile."
