Quick Transmigration: Leisure

"Eggs for sale! Delicious little eggs!"

"Cluck cluck! Selling baby chicks, chicks that have just left the nest!"

"These beans are big and white!"

"This gong is so long and wide!"

The bustling market was filled with the sounds of vendors calling out their wares, and Xia Youmi, who was setting up a stall for the first time, was very nervous.

She also avoided the East Market where the outfit had been sold by its previous owner and went to the West Market, which was more crowded but noisier.

I found a secluded corner and crouched down to observe the vendors.

It seems that the more enthusiastic and persuasive the vendor, the more people stop to watch.

Xia Youmi calculated how long she could stay in human form, and couldn't help but open her mouth, her voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz, trembling as she dared not look up.

"Sell...sell, sell my father..."

"Father...all I need is a coffin."

"Bang bang—"

Xia Youmi's hawking was quickly drowned out by the sound of chopping meat on a nearby cutting board.

I could still hear the chattering and picking over there, something like, "I don't want bones, chop them up and feed them to the dog," and "Oops, they splashed on me!"

Xia Youmi trembled all over upon hearing this, appearing even more miserable.

She didn't hang up tall prayer flags either, as it's a market rule that you can't use anything too tall to attract customers.

However, there were no objections to the wooden board, the "father," and the white cloth she showed.

People come and go,

This stall never gets any customers.

Most people only glanced at the stall briefly before losing interest and heading straight for their preferred one.

Occasionally, a vendor who had a moment to spare would look at the words on the wooden board and mutter to himself that something was written wrong, but no one would come forward to correct him.

They already have to work from dawn till dusk, how could they possibly afford to buy another girl?

At last,

The same butcher, who was preparing to pack up his stall, strode forward with a smug smile and said:

"Girl! You've come to the wrong place! The common folk in the West Market are all here to buy groceries; they don't have any spare money to support you!"

He was tall and strong, with a loud voice, and it was clear that he ate much better than the average vegetable farmer.

Having made money today, he was in a good mood and had the leisure to give this girl some pointers.

but,

Xia Youmi was somewhat timid. The skillful chopping technique was so swift that she was terrified just by hearing the sound. If she were to see the scene, she probably wouldn't be able to sleep for three days.

"Thank you..." She could only manage to squeeze out a trace of gratitude from her throat.

She hoped the butcher would leave quickly, fearing that if she lost her balance, she would lose this good spot to set up her stall.

"Tsk tsk! Although I, Old Zhu, am illiterate, I can still recognize these characters. The signboard must be wrong!"

"No, no."

"Selling her father to bury him."

Xia Youmi kept her head down, dejectedly thinking that if she didn't sell them within half an hour, today would be a complete waste.

"I think this girl is really doing it, it's a pity that her reputation has been ruined by that woman from out of town." The butcher clicked his tongue in lament. He had never seen anyone sell themselves into servitude to bury their father in Ganzhou City before, but ever since that famous incident at the eastern market, things had changed.

Within the most prestigious families of the entire Ganzhou City, a bizarre tale of redemption, taking over, and embezzlement of funds circulates.

That golden-haired young master is now mentally unstable and is under strict surveillance.

in this way,

The young masters of noble families were all ordered not to bring girls of questionable character home.

Old Zhu overheard it by accident when he went to deliver meat to someone's house.

The rumors circulating outside are probably still stuck in the stage of that girl hitting the jackpot.

unfortunately,

Ultimately, it still affected those who were legitimately selling themselves into servitude to bury their fathers.

Butcher Old Zhu clicked his tongue in amazement.

Seeing that the girl didn't look up even after he had talked for a while, he figured she was stubborn, so he prepared to get up and leave.

Old Zhu's money is all hard-earned; it's not enough to do good deeds!

"Young lady, you'd better take care of yourself!"

Hearing the noise, Xia Youmi breathed a slight sigh of relief. She looked up and peered around, wanting to learn more from the experience.

"you!"

Suddenly, Xia Youmi met the butcher's gaze as he turned back, as if he was about to say something more.

He was stunned by the girl's appearance and eyes, and stood there dumbfounded with his mouth agape.

"What are you doing! Blocking my way!"

It wasn't until a harsh rebuke and a few shoves that the butcher came to his senses.

He hurriedly walked towards Xia Youmi. Although she had her head down, he was not mistaken; she must be an absolute beauty!

She was still innocent and naive, possessing the purest and most radiant eyes—a fairy princess!

"girl!"

"What?" Xia Youmi was frightened by the murderous aura and lowered her head again and again.

The butcher surnamed Zhu wiped his hands on his clothes, seemingly afraid of offending the fairy.

After a moment's thought, he said in an extremely gentle voice, "Miss, don't be afraid! I just want to ask you, how much... is this?"

Xia Youmi, who was in a daze, quickly cheered up.

The first customer to ask!

She tentatively replied, "Just one coffin."

Xia Youmi deliberately didn't specify what kind of coffin it was, for fear that the coffin shop owner would get nervous and act like he was catching a thief if he heard it was made of pine wood.

The butcher's eyes unconsciously swept over the other person: fair, jade-like fingers, a long white robe, and a large white headscarf.

When Xia Youmi lowered his head, you really couldn't see any skin except for a small section of his knuckles.

Seeing this, he became even more itchy to get his hands on it.

When he heard that he could sell it for just one coffin, he no longer cared about his wife and children.

Thinking about it, it's such a great deal!

With just one coffin, he could use all the remaining money in his savings to buy a small courtyard for the girl.

If that's the case, wouldn't the family conflict be resolved?

"Alright!" the butcher immediately agreed, unconsciously lowering his voice as he said, "Miss, you can choose a good day, and I will definitely prepare a fine one for our father!"

Xia Youmi was pleased to see that he had agreed.

She didn't waste her time cultivating today; she actually sold this person and was able to exchange it for a new coffin.

"Let's do it today! Buy it now." Xia Youmi raised her head slightly and smiled brightly at the butcher.

"Hehe, so eager."

The butcher chuckled, rubbing his hands together as he thought to himself, even if the girl was lying, it was just money for a coffin, what was wrong with him raising her child for her?

It seems that the glittering young master doesn't know how to cherish a beautiful woman.

Why hold such a grudge? Just have another child of your own in the future. Why force someone to leave?

Don't know what is good and what is bad!

The butcher got up with a smug look on his face and prepared to take her to the coffin shop to choose one.

Xia Youmi quickly followed, and the tools were placed on an old cart that was being pushed by the enthusiastic butcher.

Along the way, Xia Youmi whispered her requirements: use the most common wood and style, and don't be too extravagant.

The butcher was even more pleased; at this moment, the heart had begun to lean towards him.

When they arrived at the shop, Xia Youmi pitifully waited three meters outside the door.

Watching the butcher, beaming with joy, discuss with the shopkeeper that he wanted to buy a new coffin for his father-in-law!

what?

certificate!

Oh, he's outside! I've brought him here for you. Come and see, look at that bluish face.

Guaranteed authentic, crystal clear.

Finally, they pushed the cart behind the men carrying the new coffin.

I only paid the final payment after leaving it at the entrance to the mountain forest.

The butcher originally wanted to discuss with Xia Youmi that it was getting late and it wouldn't be good to ask someone for help to break ground, etc.

The burial will be postponed until tomorrow.

Then Xia Youmi bowed and thanked them:

"Kind sir, the money is exchanged, Father is yours now, please take him with you!"

After saying that, she picked up the coffin and disappeared into the depths of the woods.

Only a white shadow remained.
