Proofread by Claire.KK

Ye Xiaoxian had been highly effective with what she had said. The next day she went up the mountain to pick enough mesona herb, and Xiao Baoshan also bought the bowls, spoons, brown sugar, and buckets.

In the morning of the third day, Ye Xiaoxian got up before dawn, rubbing the herbs and making the rice milk. Then she put the cold jelly into two buckets. In addition to this, she also prepared two empty buckets for the bowls and spoons. There was also a river in the countryside. After arriving there, she could fill a bucket of water for washing the dishes.

Xiao Baoshan was going to the town that day, and he picked up the cold jelly without saying a word. Then Ye Xiaoxian and Li Hongmei quickly picked up the empty bucket and went to keep up.

...

It was a long way to the town. Ye Xiaoxian was originally worried that Xiao Baoshan could not lift them, but later she found that Xiao Baoshan had no difficulty in picking up the two buckets of cold jelly.

After arriving in the town he then chose a place for Ye Xiaoxian. It was a market square and very lively with many people around.

Xiao Baoshan put down his load, then took the empty bucket from Ye Xiaoxian’s shoulder, and said in a deep voice, “I will help you fill two buckets of water.”

Ye Xiaoxian couldn’t help feeling warm and then stared straight at him again. Xiao Baoshan felt uncomfortable, and hurried away with an empty bucket.

“Fool!” Ye Xiaoxian muttered behind his back.

Although speaking softly, Li Hongmei heard this and scolded, “Wasn’t he a fool? He sure is a rash guy!”

Ye Xiaoxian: “...”

...

Qinghe was a small county in the south and also located on the border. Many foreign caravans would pass through here and, so long as the weather was good, it was a particularly lively place.

Ye Xiaoxian and Li Hongmei had just set up the stall when someone came and asked, “Sister, what are you selling?”

“Cold jelly, which can cool you down and quench your thirst. Would you like a bowl?” Li Hongmei asked.

The man took a look at the cold jelly in the bucket and said, “It looks nice, but I just had breakfast and I couldn’t eat anything more.”

Li Hongmei: “...”

Then a few more people came to ask about it, but while they all asked but they didn’t buy.

There were also some who laughed at them because they were both women.

However, in broad daylight, Ye Xiaoxian and Li Hongmei weren’t easily bullied. Those people left without taking advantage of them.

A few minutes later, Xiao Baoshan picked back up the water. When the people nearby saw that Bao Baoshan was large and imposing, they were even more afraid to come and provoke the two women.

But Xiao Baoshan also had things to do, so he left after a while.

As the sun rose, Li Hongmei was a little flustered by it and she couldn’t help asking Ye Xiaoxian, “Little ye, could we not sell this cold jelly? It’s been half an hour and we haven’t sold a single bowl yet.”

“Ma, don’t be discouraged so easily, it’s the first time we’ve come here to set up a stall. People nearby are unfamiliar with us. We won’t sell it so soon, just wait until it gets a little warmer.”

Although she was comforting Li Hongmei, she in fact had no idea and was also worried about the cold jelly.

But she had already come and even if no one bought any, they could only wait here.

Fortunately, as the sun gradually rose and the weather became hotter, at noon they finally got their first customer, a fat shopkeeper who sold rouge nearby.

“Sister, could I have a bowl of cold jelly?” said the fat shopkeeper.

Ye Xiaoxian quickly took the spoon and gave him a bowl.

After receiving the cold jelly, the fat shopkeeper complained. “Now it’s too hot, cold jelly is the most useful food for relieving heat. I usually eat in the stall in front of the bridge. Today I saw you were here and I was too lazy to go there. I didn’t know if your cold jelly was as good as his. If not, I wouldn’t come and buy any.”

Ye Xiaoxian laughed. “Shopkeeper, whether it is delicious or not, why don’t you just have a taste? I’m afraid that you can’t have enough once you taste it.”
