Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 898 - 900: Oh My, You Still Want to Haggle?

Upon hearing this, Xiaoxiao’s heart skipped a beat. The loud crying of Shitou’s mother and child had indeed attracted the stranger who lived under the same roof. She furrowed her brows, what should she do now?

Only to see the stranger walk in, pitifully saying, "Beauty, you took them away but didn’t take me. I’m so hurt."

"..." Xiaoxiao was speechless. How should she get rid of this person? Should she tie him up and leave him?

"Beauty, can you bear to leave me here all alone? What if those people go to the Medicine King Valley and the illness isn’t cured, then the villagers here burn me, what should I do? I’m so scared."

Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes at him, "Don’t you have subordinates? Just wait for your subordinates to come rescue you then!"

"Oh my, beauty, where do I have any subordinates? I was just tricking them. They were the ones who captured me first, I was just scaring them."

"..." Xiaoxiao was speechless, only a fool would believe such words. This person was dressed well, could afford a meal costing an ounce of Silver, so his supposed subordinates were definitely not a lie.

"Beauty, if you all leave, I’m definitely a dead man here. I don’t want to die."

"Beauty, even if the villagers don’t burn me, I estimate I’ll starve to death."

"Beauty, can you bear to let me starve to death?"

"Beauty, without the dishes you cook, I can’t survive."

"Beauty, take me along."

"Beauty..."

"..."

The man said a lot of pitiful things, which made Shitou’s mother a bit soft-hearted, "Sister, this big brother is also quite pitiable. If it weren’t for the village’s matters, he wouldn’t be stuck here. How about we all go together? Another person means another helping hand."

"Auntie, why don’t we just take him along?" Even Little Shitou pleaded for him.

"..." Xiaoxiao was speechless. Well, she just said only a fool would believe it, and here came two fools who were completely bought by his pitiful act.

"Yes, yes, beauty, another person means another helping hand. After all, I’m a man, I can help carry the food."

"..." Speaking of food, Xiaoxiao felt like the dry rations she brought wouldn’t last, as this person was a foodie.

Xiaoxiao had no idea, so she looked at Yang Ming; she would listen to Yang Ming on this matter.

At this moment, Yang Ming’s face was incredibly dark; he least wanted to travel with this person, but this person had discovered them.

He wasn’t afraid of Shitou’s mother and child holding them back, but he really disliked this man.

But since he was discovered, they had to deal with it, and there were only two solutions now.

One was to tie the person up and gag him; otherwise, with this person’s mouth, if he shouted, none of them would get away, but this person didn’t seem easy to bind. If he really started shouting, they would all be doomed.

Yang Ming furrowed his brows, though reluctant, taking this person along might be more advantageous for a successful escape. So, he said, "If you want to come with us, you must agree to three conditions."

"Oh my, there are conditions?"

Yang Ming put his arm around his wife and said, "Honey, give him a chance. If he doesn’t take it, then we’ll tie him up to avoid the eyesore."

Xiaoxiao let out a soft snort, nodded, "Hubby, sounds good."

"Okay, okay, state your conditions." With the way this couple acted, they might actually do it.

Yang Ming said, "First, ensure the safety of Little Shitou’s mother and child along the way."

"Oh my, I thought it was something big, that’s easy, easy."
