279. I Won’t Beat a Woman

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

Jin Xiaoyu felt a little relieved when she saw that Little Xun got along well with the tribe quickly.

Apart from Ye Xiaoxian and Xiao Baoshan, Jin Xiaoyu often do errands with Little Xun for a group of women, such as cotton-picking.

In the past, Jin Xiaoyu wouldn’t do something like this. Why did she, a kid in her seven or eight age, need to kiss up to an adult?

However, it was different now. She felt like she would leave one day, anyway.

Once she left, Little Xun would have no people to rely on. She couldn’t let that happen.

Thinking of the kind prime minister who was born with integrity and dignity, and the group of heroes in the outside world, she couldn’t leave such a lovely kid here.

Until that day, Li Hongmei found Jin Xiaoyu.

Li Hongmei had been keeping an eye to Jin Xiaoyu for a while.

She was mainly wary of Jin Xiaoyu and didn’t let Jin Xiaoyu come together with Xiao Baoshan. Otherwise, she wouldn’t know when Ye Xiaoxian and Xiao Baoshan would be reconciled.

After observing for a while, Li Hongmei didn’t notice that Jin Xiaoyu did something crossing the line. She didn’t even talk to Xiao Baoshan.

However, since Jin Xiaoyu asked Little Xun to be close to everyone, Li Hongmei wondered if Jin Xiaoyu wanted to get close to Xiao Baoshan by making use of the kid.

Even though the child was innocent and particularly lovely.

One day, Li Hongmei saw Jin Xiaoyu chatting and joking with a few guys and she could tell they obviously liked her. Therefore, Li Hongmei was worried again, what if Xiao Baoshan couldn’t resist the temptation?

Li Hongmei walked towards Jin Xiaoyu as she walked over.

“Boss, can I have a talk with you?” Li Hongmei asked.

Jin Xiaoyu smiled. “I’m not your boss any more. You can call me Xiaoyu or Xiaojin.”

Li Hongmei smiled and took a look that there was no one around them. “Xiaojin, what’s the relationship between you and the Seventh Royal Highness?”

Jin Xiaoyu raised her eyebrows. “What do you think?” Or you can tell me what the people said in the tribe. What does they think of our relationship?

About this, the people here had discussed it earlier in private.

It was Feng Sheng who brought Jin Xiaoyu here and directly said that Jin Xiaoyu was to live here in the future. Therefore, people here all guessed that Li Chengzhu might like Jin Xiaoyu and wanted to keep her as his lover.

Even though Li Chengju was a very arrogant person, it was impossible for such a noble man to have no lovers outside. The Emperor in the palace had lovers outside when they come out for a private interview. Besides, Jin Xiaoyu looked pretty good.

Jin Xiaoyu saw that Li Hongmei kept silent and asked, “I understand. You think I have something to do with him as well.”

Luckily, Li Hongmei knew about brothel before. Otherwise, she would have thought that Jin Xiaoyu’s words were vulgar.

Li Hongmei said, “Actually, I just want to talk about the relationship between you and the Seventh Royal Highness and Xiao Baoshan as well. If you were arranged by him, then we have nothing to say. You can stay here for long, but if you don’t have that kind of relationship with him, I think... ”

“Are you worried that I’ll hook up with Baoshan again?” Jin Xiaoyu spoke so directly all the time.

On the contrary, Li Hongmei felt a little awkward.

Jin Xiaoyu said frankly, “I have nothing to do with him. However, I came here because of Little Xun who had something to do with me.”

Li Hongmei suddenly smelled the gossip. “So, Little Xun and the Seventh Royal Highness are...”

“I don’t know the specifics, but it’s must be related,” Jin Xiaoyu didn’t want to deny that. Because the more mysterious background he had, the more they felt that he was related to the Seventh King, the better for her Little Xun.

Li Hongmei thought about for a while and felt that Little Xun was not simple. He was either the Seventh King’s bastard son or the Sixth King’s.

Then she looked at Jin Xiaoyu. “Since you have nothing to do with the Seventh King, are you here just for Little Xun?”

“Yes, if someone takes good care of him for me, then I can leave. He was not my biological siblings.” Jin Xiaoyu knew what she wanted to ask.

Sure enough, Li Hongmei’s eyes lit up and she didn’t take the initiative to say anything before Jin Xiaoyu directly said it.

“I will help take care of him. Everyone in our tribe will do.” Li Hongmei promised immediately.

Jin Xiaoyu smiled. “Since that’s the case, I think it’s time for me to leave for a while, but I haven’t thought of where to go for now. I’ll think about it later.”

Li Hongmei smiled out of courtesy. “No rush, no rush. Take your time, think about it before making decision. You have to come back often to see us in the future.”

Jin Xiaoyu turned around and smiled bitterly.

......

In the afternoon, Jin Xiaoyu asked Little Xun to pick up the vegetables for Li Hongmei and the rest. And he could play with Bao Yang and Bao Xue after he finished this.

Jin Xiaoyu, on the other hand, with nothing to do, borrowed their horses and walked aimlessly on the prairie.

The yurt in the tribe were sparse. Apart from the fact that people from central plains liked to live together, the other people’s yurt were relatively evacuated.

She didn’t know why she just arrived at the Camel Team’s headquarters.

The people from the Camel Team came back a few days ago. Jin Xiaoyu had lived here for a long time and knew about them. But she was still really shocked to see dozens of camels.

She couldn’t help but get off the horse and go over to see the camels.

They were very quiet, honest, clumsy, diligent, and not picky on food, just like she liked it.

She was stunned while looking them unconsciously.

As she looked carefully, a voice suddenly came from behind her. “Do you love it?”

Jin Xiaoyu turned around and saw a handsome local young man in his twenties. The young man looked a little cynical, but she can tell he was a good boy after she ran an inn and saw all kinds of people for a long time.

“Do you say Chinese?” Jin Xiaoyu asked.

“Of course,” Tarico raised hid eyebrows.

“Your raised your camels pretty well. Let me think about it, you are... Ri-ccardo? Anyway, I often hear them talking about you, saying that you’re the clan leader of Camel Team, right?

Tarico frowned, “Who said that I’m Riccardo?”

“Maybe my memory is wrong. I’m not good at remembering names, so sorry.” Jin Xiaoyu smiled. She had been tanned in the tribe these days, and her smile seemed very bright. In addition to her open-minded personality, her smile was very unrestrained.

Tarico said, “I also heard that a beautiful woman came from your side. She loves to talk and laugh just like the girls of our tribe, and she is not restrained at all.”

“Oh, that must be me,” Jin Xiaoyu was not humble at all.

“Why have you been looking at my camel just now?” Tarico asked again.

“Just like it, what? Can’t I have a look?”

“Of course you can,” Tarico was about to feed the camel as he moved over a few dried leaves and sprinkled them in front of the camel.

Jin Xiaoyu also went to help.

“Hey, Riccardo I heard that the camel team was going to cross the desert and stay in the desert for more than ten days. When will you get started next time?”

Tarico paused and continued, “I’m not Riccardo. My name is Tarico.”

“Tarico, okay, I remember. You haven’t answered my question yet.”

Tarico said, “We’re heading out in a few days, waiting for the resources to be ready in your side.”

“Bring me with you,” Jin Xiaoyu added.

Tarico rejected immediately, “We don’t want women.”

“Are you kidding me?” I heard that Yezi and Baozhu had been there too, as well as Liu Qianqian .

When she mentioned these women, Jin Xiaoyu obviously saw that Tarico’s expression froze a while.

“Am I wrong?” Jin Xiaoyu asked.

She guessed that Tarico had something to do with these women.

Tarico fed the camel as he said, “That’s all in the past. Now the Camel Team has rearranged and there are no woman. Besides, we are all men and it’s inconvenient for you to be there.”

“How?” Is it inconvenient to pee or poop? Didn’t all of you just dig a pit in the desert?

Tarico looked at Jin Xiaoyu in surprise. He had never seen such a straightforward woman in central plains.

“I am a rough person. Apart from that thing, everything else is as the same as a man. Let me go with you guys and I promise that I’m not going to trouble you,” Jin Xiaoyu said.

She couldn’t stay in the tribe every day, anyway.

Now she could follow the Camel Team first for a while. When Little Xun got used to the days without her, she can go further away.

Tarico still rejected, “That’s impossible. This is too dangerous. We even met bandits once. If it weren’t for Xiao Baoshan, we might have died inside.”

“What’s fear about bandits? Just beat their ass. You can do it, why can’t I?”

“You’re a woman...” Tarico took a look at Jin Xiaoyu up and down. Even though Jin Xiaoyu wasn’t thin and weak, she was quite feminine. It seemed like she didn’t know how to fight and was the kind of girl who needed men to protect.

“What’s wrong with the woman?” Do the people in your Tianshan tribe take women as men? How about this, let’s have a fight. If I win, let me join the Camel Team, okay? ”

Tarico smiled. “I won’t fight with a woman.”

“Cut the crap. Watch!” Jin Xiaoyu moved without further words.

Tarico almost didn’t have time to get away, but then he came back to earth and took a few steps back.

“I told you, I don’t beat women!” Tarico said.

“Then, just wait to get beaten by a woman!” Jin Xiaoyu rushed over again.

The other people came out after hearing the sound outside.

They were surprised to see Tarico fighting with a woman.

This was the territory of the Camel Team. Because of the Mahal’s poisoning events, everyone would guard against outsiders and prevent suspicious people from getting close to the camel. Now there was a woman who even started fighting with Tarico. So, this lady also wanted to poison or steal a camel?

The others wanted to come up to help but Tarico shouted, “It’s none of your business. I’ll do it myself!”
