The Hunter’s Lucky Little Lady - Chapter 238
238 Busybody
Li Xiaoran, who was being schemed against, was very happy at the moment.
Because she actually met someone selling strawberries on the way to her grandmother’s house.
The sweet strawberries were delicious in her mouth.
Therefore, Li Xiaoran stopped the woman who sold strawberries and got out of the car.
!!
“Auntie, how much are you selling these strawberries for?”
When the woman heard this, she immediately looked at Li Xiaoran in confusion. “What are strawberries?”
“Uh, isn’t those strawberries in your hand?” Li Xiaoran was stunned by the question. She squatted down and took a strawberry to take a closer look. “That’s right. It’s a strawberry. The smell is the same!”
When the woman saw Li Xiaoran take her things, she immediately understood.
“So that’s what you’re talking about! It’s not called strawberries here. We call them snake fruits. Are you really going to buy them?”
Li Xiaoran picked up the strawberry in her hand and examined it again.
“Can I try it? Don’t worry, I’ll pay for it!”
When the woman heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she immediately smiled.
“It’s just a fruit, so why can’t I try it?! Try it first. If you like it, I’ll sell it to you. There’s no need to pay for it,” the woman said when she heard Li Xiaoran’s words.
“Sigh, you’re not even sure what fruit it is. Why are you eating it?” Seeing this, Luo Cheng reached out to stop Li Xiaoran.
“Don’t worry, this snake fruit’s name sounds scary, but it’s not poisonous. If you don’t believe me, I’ll eat it in front of you!” The woman really wanted to sell these snake fruits. After all, her family needed money. If she could sell them now, it would be much more convenient than going to the market to sell them.
As she spoke, the woman casually chose a snake fruit and ate it.
“Don’t worry! This fruit is really edible!”
As she spoke, Li Xiaoran placed the strawberry in her mouth and ate it.
The familiar taste made Li Xiaoran beam with joy.
“That’s right. This is the taste! Auntie, how much are these strawberries? I’ll buy them all!”
The woman smiled when she heard Li Xiaoran’s words.
“I only sell it for six copper coins a catty at the market. There are ten catties in this basket. Give me fifty copper coins!”
Li Xiaoran thought about it.
“Auntie, look, we didn’t bring anything with us when we went out. Why don’t you sell this snake fruit to me along with the bamboo basket?! I’ll give you 60 copper coins!”
This basket was woven from bamboo by her family, so it was worthless.
Therefore, when Li Xiaoran said that, the woman agreed.
After taking out the copper coins and counting 60 copper coins, Li Xiaoran asked Luo Cheng to take the strawberries away.
Before leaving, Li Xiaoran suddenly thought of something and said.
“Auntie, have you offended someone recently?”
When the woman heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she was stunned.
“That’s impossible! I’m either working at home or working in the fields. How can I offend anyone?!” The woman said with a puzzled expression.
When Li Xiaoran heard the woman’s words, she sensed the emotions around her, so she said, “Have you had a fight with anyone recently?”
When the woman heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she became wary.
What was wrong with this woman in front of him? She kept saying strange things. Could it be that she bought his things with ill intentions?
Li Xiaoran naturally sensed the woman’s suspicion and looked amused.
“Auntie, I don’t have any ill intentions, nor do I want to harm you! Didn’t you notice? Along the way, someone was following you! At first, I thought that person just happened to be walking along the same path as you. But now that you’ve stopped, that person is hiding not far away and waiting. That’s why I suspected the other party’s intentions and asked if you’ve offended someone?”
When the woman heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she subconsciously looked in the direction she had come from.
However, the path she had taken was empty.
At this moment, the woman didn’t know if she should believe Li Xiaoran.
“Auntie, I know you won’t believe me now. But if the other party is targeting you, won’t it be very dangerous for you to be off guard? Why don’t you follow us?! You don’t have to go too far. There’s someone hidden behind the big rock you passed just now. Follow us and take a look, then you’ll know!” Li Xiaoran thought for a moment and finally said.
The woman thought for a moment and decided to listen to Li Xiaoran.
After all, it was better to be safe than sorry!
If someone really came for her and had ill intentions, how could she, a woman, defeat them?
Just like that, the people in the ox cart and the walking woman moved forward.
On the ox cart, Li Xiaoran carefully sensed the emotions of the person hiding behind the big rock.
The other party definitely had ill intentions. There was no doubt about that.
That was why Li Xiaoran interfered and brought this woman along.
Finally, when they reached the big rock, the person quietly turned to the other side.
The woman walked over but didn’t see anyone, so she looked at Li Xiaoran in confusion.
Li Xiaoran thought for a moment and looked at Luo Cheng.
With just a look, Luo Cheng knew what Li Xiaoran was thinking.
Then, Luo Cheng jumped and ran to the other side of the stone. He grabbed a man and threw him over.
“Ouch!” A pained cry sounded. The woman’s expression changed when she heard it.
Because the woman knew who this man was just by his voice.
“Fang Wanli, you’re actually here! Do you know how many people want to catch you and skin you alive?!” The woman glared at the man and gritted her teeth.
When Li Xiaoran’s family heard this, they looked at the man in front of them in shock.
For the woman to say such a thing, it seemed that the man in front of them had definitely done something heinous.
“Hmph, Kang Dandan, you’re just lucky to encounter these people who helped you. Otherwise, I would have captured you and sold you today!” The man on the ground snorted as he endured the pain in his leg.
Li Xiaoran looked at the other party carefully. As expected, he looked fierce.
Ever since Zhao Xiu heard the name Kang Dandan, she felt that this name was very familiar, but she couldn’t remember it for a moment.
“Yes, I’m lucky. If I hadn’t met them today, I would have been in serious trouble. Unfortunately, you’re unlucky. I’ll bring you back today and see how everyone deals with you!”
After Kang Dandan finished speaking, she cupped her hands and thanked Li Xiaoran and Luo Cheng.
“Thank you for saving us. Please help me tie this person up and send him to Haizi Village. This person cheated people out of their money and harmed hundreds of families in Haizi Village and the surrounding villages. Therefore, please help me send this scourge to our village!”
