âYour goods that you bought yesterday have arrived.â The worker who came off the donkey cart spoke courteously.
Liu Xiaohong looked at Li Gui curiously. âBrother Li Gui, you bought so much. How much did it cost?â
âUhâ¦â The worker said, âMiss, I think you got it wrong. It wasnât this young fellow who bought the goods but Miss Su.â
Liu Xiaohong felt awkward. âWhat? It wasnât Brother Li Gui who bought it but Su Qingyue?â
âYes.â The young worker nodded.
Liu Xiaohong twisted her handkerchief, feeling shy and embarrassed. âBrother
Li Gui, then what are you doing here?â
âEveryone came to watch the excitement, so I did too.â Li Gui responded. In fact, he had given a cent to a kid in the village to watch Su Qingyue. But it wasnât appropriate for him to say this with everyone present.
âHeave ho!â laughed Wang Cuihua. âJust now, who was it who said that the Xiao family is poor and wouldnât be able to afford two donkey carts full of goods in a lifetime? Well, Su Qingyue just made a move and bought up everything. I bet itâs your Liu family who wouldnât be able to buy this much in a lifetime!â âHumph!â Liu Xiaohong ran off, her face a picture of embarrassment.
âServes you right for looking down on people!â Wang Cuihua spat at her retreating figure. Excitedly, she grabbed Qingyueâs hand and said, âQingyue, youâve done pretty well, buying so much! No wonder you just now said you didnât need to go to the village entrance to see the excitement. So it was you who bought all that stuff, and knew they would deliver it.â
âThatâs right.â Qingyue nodded.
âMiss Su, weâll deliver your purchases to your home nowâ¦â The young worker spoke politely.
Su Qingyue glanced at the worker, and then at the other one waiting on the second donkey cart. âYou guys are from Sunâs Rice Shop, arenât you?â
âYes. I am Wang Qi,â He pointed to the other worker driving the cart, âHe is Liu
Yuan. Both of us are workers hired by Shopkeeper Sun of Sunâs Rice Shop.â âI didnât see you both when I went to Sunâs Rice Shop yesterday.â
âThe shop was busy. We were out delivering goods.â n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âYou guys have such keen eyesight.â Su Qingyue praised, âI havenât seen you before, but you recognized me.â She glanced at the villagers following her, âthey told you, right?â
Wang Qi replied, âNo. I just asked for your home address. Shopkeeper Sun told me that you had a very âdistinctiveâ look. He described it a bit and I recognized you right away. And see, I didnât get it wrong.â
â Su Qingyue almost choked on her own blood, âIs my appearance that unique?â
Li Gui and the other spectating villagers all laughed.
Even Wang Cuihua had to stifle her laughter.
âOf everyone within ten miles, your face is certainly the ugliest and so the easiest to recognizeâ¦â Just as Wang Qi was about to comment, Liu Yuan quickly jumped off the donkey cart and yanked his sleeve, âStop talking nonsense! Miss Su is our big customer, we cannot offend her.â
With that, he turned to Su Qingyue with an apologetic smile, âSorry, Wang Qi is honest and straight, he never tells lies. Please donât take it to heart.â
Swallowing the blood rising from her own throat, Su Qingyue barely managed out, âSo heâs honest, and he only speaks the truth, rightâ¦â
âYesâ¦â only then did Liu Yuan realized that saying Su Qingyue was ugly was indeed not a good idea, âOh, my apologiesâ¦my deepest apologiesâ¦â
âItâs fine!â Su Qingyue waved dismissively, âYou guys are simply blind. I wonât bother arguing with you.â
âWe are blind, not you. Big customer, please donât mind. We should hurry to deliver the goods to your house.. Is there anyone home?â
