Chapter 601: For You
Xiao Xue patted Youyou: "Quick, Youyou, let’s go!"
Youyou made a powerful leap and disappeared with Xiao Xue from everyone’s sight, Han Jing...
Oh well, let her be. She couldn’t manage her anyway. As long as it’s not a big deal, she couldn’t suffer a loss.
Youyou had lived in the Spirit Flame Sect for many years, so it knew about any nearby towns. It directly took Xiao Xue to the nearest small town, Yunxi Town.
Yunxi Town was much larger and more lively than Ghost Immortal Town, where Xiao Xue often went.
Especially at this time, by evening, when the sun was setting, the townspeople were all outside, setting up stalls, watching the excitement, with various selling, shouting, and cheering sounds enlivening the place.
Sitting on Youyou’s back, Xiao Xue lifted her small head, scrunched her little nose, sniffing as she sighed, "So fragrant!"
She then spotted a bun stall with sharp eyes, where several people were lining up. Xiao Xue quickly patted Youyou, pointed at the bun stall, and said, "Go there! I promised to treat Auntie Luo to buns! Let’s eat two first, then bring some back for Auntie Luo and An’an’s mother. As for Mother... hmm, since she said she wouldn’t call me for meals, I won’t bring her any! ...Never mind, I’ll still bring her one! Mother may not love me, but I can’t be unfilial to her! Alas~"
While babbling, Xiao Xue patted Youyou and proceeded to the bun stall.
The townspeople were startled to see such a person-wolf duo and were a bit scared at first. But in the Spirit Cultivation Realm, especially near a major sect like Spirit Flame Sect, the townspeople of Yunxi Town had seen much of the world, and soon calmed down.
Some were curious about whose child was so pretty!
Sensibly, Xiao Xue jumped off Youyou’s back and obediently stood at the back of the line.
After waiting for a while, it finally came to her turn.
Xiao Xue looked up at the counter, much taller than herself, and shouted, "Uncle, give me... ten buns! Beef ones!"
The bun shop attendant, seeing such a cute little girl, quickly smiled and packed ten beef buns for her, personally going around the counter to hand them to her, and asked with a smile, "Little girl, can you hold them?"
Just as Xiao Xue was about to reach out with her chubby little arms for the greasy paper bag, she suddenly remembered she hadn’t brought any money.
The little girl knew that buying things required money. In the past, she took things without paying because no one asked her for money when she was with Grandpa Ghost. Or when she was with her mother or Uncle Lan Ling, they would pay. But now... no one was with her. The little girl was suddenly at a loss. She had no money, what should she do?
Xiao Xue blinked her eyes, scrunched her small nose again, feeling how fragrant it really was! But her mother said never to take advantage of strangers!
Xiao Xue lowered her arms, clenched her fists into small balls, and firmly shook her head at the bun shop attendant: "Uncle, I didn’t bring any money. I’ll come back to buy your buns after I get some money!"
The little girl’s demeanor amused the bun shop attendant, who smiled and said, "Come on, little girl, take them. Uncle is giving them to you!"
Xiao Xue resolutely shook her head and turned to leave.
Just then, a hand suddenly handed a piece of broken silver to the bun shop attendant, a gentle and warm voice said, "I’ll take it!"
Then, a fair and slender hand handed a bag of buns to Xiao Xue, "For you."
