290. Anyway, I Feel Comfortable Myself

Translator: Storm in a Teacup

There were just a few chairs. Even though he had put them together, how could it fit his long arms and legs? Almost half of his body was hanging outside.

Ye Xiaoxian was angry again.

‘Am I not charming enough? Am I not attractive? I’ve already left a space for you, so why don’t you come?’

Fine, if you want to sleep on the chairs, then do it. I don’t want to take care of you. Anyway, I feel comfortable myself.

……

Ye Xiaoxian rolled her blanket and fell asleep.

But she woke up in the middle of the night.

Baoshan kicked over a chair when he turned over.

She opened her eyes and saw that Baoshan was holding up a chair and turning over and over, trying to find a comfortable sleeping position.

She was even angrier.

‘It’s already like this, and you’re not even coming to the bed. Are you a man or not?’

She suddenly believed Jin Xiaoyu’s words: Baoshan never took the initiative to touch Jin Xiaoyu.

Otherwise, with Jin Xiaoyu’s seductiveness, how could he resist the temptation?

The man who Jin Xiaoyu couldn’t even seduce, she… Oh well, she was her and Jin Xiaoyu was Jin Xiaoyu. How could they be the same?

……

No one slept well this night.

On the second day, both had dark circles.

The most annoying thing was that Baoshan actually asked Ye Xiaoxian, “Did you sleep well last night?”

Well?

What a bullshit!

Ye Xiaoxian just chuckled. Baoshan slept on the chairs for a whole night and now he thought he was doing a great thing that, in order to make her sleep well, he sacrificed a night’s sleep?

Stupid blockhead!

……

The next day, Ye Xiaoxian and Baozhu wandered around the city, bought everything they needed, and then followed Wang Wen and Wang Wu to stay in the tribe.

Baoshan stayed at Qian’s house, saying that he had something important to discuss with Qian Qi and that he might only be back after the new year.

Ye Xiaoxian didn’t care when he would come back. She didn’t want to see that idiot now.

……

In the tribe, Tarico and Jin Xiaoyu were also moving.

Tarico came to pick up Jin Xiaoyu himself, carried things and took care of Little Xun for her.

Jin Xiaoyu didn’t wear many clothes when she went out. She had good physical abilities and had stayed in the desert for a long time, so it didn’t matter if she wore less.

But Tarico didn’t allow it and asked Jin Xiaoyu, “We went to buy clothes, shoes and hats that day. Why didn’t you wear them?”

Jin Xiaoyu thought: This little brat is quite meddled.

“It’s not cold now. I’ll put them on on the road.”

Tarico didn’t give in, “It’s cold on the way, and there may not be a place for you to change. You should change it now, or I won’t allow you to go.”

“I’m not cold.”

“Of course you are not cold in the room. When you ride on the camel, it will be cold. It’s  windy outside.”

Jin Xiaoyu couldn’t help but chase him out of the room and put on extra pants and boots.

She was dressed up like an old lady who had just entered the city from the countryside. She was going to despise herself.

However, Tarico was very satisfied. He grinned and said, “Now, you will be unlikely to get sick. We have to know that our living conditions are tough and there aren’t many medicines. It will be troublesome if we get sick.”

Jin Xiaoyu rolled her eyes at him.

When Tarico led Jin Xiaoyu to leave, he waved goodbye to everyone in a high-profile manner, “Squire Liu, see you in spring next year!”

“Auntie Hongmei, we are leaving now. You have to take care of yourelves in the tribe.”

“Zhenbo, take care of the family.”

“…”

When everyone saw Tarico’s excitement, they all pretended that they didn’t know what he was up to.

Wasn’t just Jin Xiaoyu willing to go with him? It was not easy for a woman like Jin Xiaoyu to subdue, so he might suffer next time.

……

Little Ye also watched Tarico and Jin Xiaoyu ride far away.

She couldn’t know whether Jin Xiaoyu was sincere, but Tarico was, for sure.

She thought back to how Tarico had been so enthusiastic when he confessed to her in the past, but it wasn’t long before until he had a second person in his heart.

So she guessed correctly that no one would ever stay for the second person. If you ignored him, he would turn around and leave.

Who knew how long Baoshan would wait for her.

He liked to live in the city and said that he had something to discuss with Qian Qi. What if a second woman appeared beside him? Would he be like Tarico meeting Jin Xiaoyu, leaving everything behind just for her?

She sighed slightly.

……

After travelling for more than ten days, Jin Xiaoyu and the rest finally reached the second farm.

It was still cold, but it wouldn’t rain, and the grass could also be grazed. In addition, there were many herders from the tribe, so they didn’t feel desolate.

When they arrived, they would build a new yurt.

When Jin Xiaoyu and Little Xun came, they had pulled down the yurt from the old site and brought it here. Of course, she wouldn’t know how to build it.

But there was no need to worry. Tarico would help her. As long as Tarico called out, the members of the camel team would come to help. Jin Xiaoyu did not need to do anything.

However, she couldn’t just let her hands free. Even though she was a woman and Tarico admired her, it was impossible for her to simply hang around and be a freeloader.

So she took Little Xun together to pick up some firewood nearby and observed the terrain a little bit.

Apart from being warmer, other things here were similar to the tribes. The sky was always blue, the grass was always green with sprinkles of yellow, the cows and sheep were eating grass, and there were mountains nearby, so they could pick up the firewood.

Probably because she was inexperienced, she hadn’t picked up much.

When she came back, he happened to hear Tarico talking to his brothers in the yurt. Because Wang Wen and Wang Wu were also there, he spoke in the Zhongyuan dialect:

“As for Miss Jin, I’ll be the one to protect her from now on. You guys are not allowed to have feelings for her, and can’t let her do everything just because she’s a woman. The expenses of the two siblings are all on me. Even if she doesn’t work and lies on the bed every day, you guys can’t have any objections. If you do, you can’t talk to me. Don’t judge her behind her back!”

Then someone responded, “Your words are already so obvious. Who dares to have any objections to her? We will treat her as the eldest mistress, okay?”

“What is the eldest mistress?” Tarico asked.

Wang Wen said, “It is a rich madam from a wealthy family. Or, perhaps you can understand it in this way – she is the Empress and we are the ministers. We can’t offend her. We will offer her the best food and drink. Clear enough?”

The others laughed and echoed, indicating that they would not let the two do any hard work.

Tarico said satisfactorily, “Alright, in short, if you guys accept her, then I won’t treat you badly. After I set up all the yurts, I’ll go catch some fish for you all.”

Jin Xiaoyu suddenly had an indescribable feeling in her heart.

Tarico seemed to be serious, and he was terribly serious.

Even Little Xun pulled the corner of her shirt and whispered, “Sis, Brother Tarico is not bad.”

She smiled a bit, “What do you children know? Don’t talk nonsense.”

Little Xun suddenly felt wronged. Why didn’t he understand? He knows everything, okay?

……

Although Tarico said not to let Jin Xiaoyu do anything.

She couldn’t stand idle and do nothing.

She wasn’t the type of woman who was willing to be protected by a man, nor did she like to develop the habit of relying on a man. She was afraid that she would get addicted and in the course of time would lose herself.

Seeing that Tarico and Mcginon were going fishing with their fishnets, she followed.

“Going fishing, huh?” Jin Xiaoyu asked.

“Yeah,” Tarico narrowed his eyes and smiled. “Do you want to go together?”

“Of course.”

Tarico asked, “Are you interested in fishing?”

“A little bit, I can help anyway.”

Expectedly, Tarico was happy that she wanted to follow.

The first thing to do when fishing in the river is to cast the fishnet.

Since there was no boat here, they needed to throw a piece of wood in the river, then use martial arts to fly to the opposite side and then insert the fish net.

Jin Xiaoyu was experienced in flying skills, so she took the initiative to take the task of putting the fishnet from the other side of the river.

After she threw the wood into the water, she leaped forward and flew to the opposite shore.

Tarico and Mcginon were stunned, while Little Xun clapped at the shore, admiring Jin Xiaoyu.

“Should we put it here?” Jin Xiaoyu shouted.

Tarico didn’t answer. Jin Xiaoyu was so good in flying skills that he didn’t want to be outdone. After thinking about it for a while, he also leaped on the wooden stick and flew over to the other side.

“What are you doing here?” Jin Xiaoyu asked.

Tarico smiled and said, “I’m afraid you don’t know how to set the fishnet.”

“There’s nothing I don’t know. Just let me do it.”

“Let me do it.”

“…”

The two of them went to grab the fishnet, but the shore was slippery. When Tarico grabbed the fishnet, he accidentally slipped and rushed towards Jin Xiaoyu.

Jin Xiaoyu couldn’t bear the impact and fell back.

Just like that, the two of them fell to the shore, one above and the other below.

Jin Xiaoyu was stunned while Tarico was as well.

Even though the clothes she was wearing was extremely old-fashioned, he could still smell the faint fragrance of flowers. In addition, the person below him looked very pretty, her lips were soft, and her eyes were beautiful, charming and agile.

On the other side, Mcginon sighed: Tarico really knows the tricks. No wonder they think I’m too honest. How come I don’t know how to play these tricks?

Little Xun covered his eyes.

Jin Xiaoyu lay on the ground. She could feel the breath of the person above her became quick. Just as he was about to kiss her, she suddenly pushed him away and sat up.

Tarico suddenly came around. Since he was embarrassed, he wanted to distract their attention. Just at this time, he saw that the fishnet was about to be washed away by the river. He quickly rushed to grab the fishnet and inserted it in the right place.

He was about to apologize to Jin Xiaoyu, but Jin Xiaoyu had already flown back to the other side.

He was a little frustrated.

Was he too impulsive just now?

Alas, she wouldn’t leave anyway, so he could explain it to her later.

……

Earlier, someone had seen the scene clearly on the mountain.

That was Mahal’s daughter, Guri.

After Mahal’s position of tribal leader was taken away, he kept a low profile in the tribe for a long time. Guri didn’t dare to brag in the tribe anymore. She followed Mahal and herded the sheep and cattles.

Even though the position of the tribal leader was gone, their home business still continued, as well as the herding. This time, their family also came together as they transferred to this new farm.
