My Fantastic Chef Wife Chapter 287 – Invite Her to Eat Noodles

Chapter 287. Invite Her to Eat NoodlesTranslator: Fan Translation Studio

Tarico came over soon.

Every time he came back from Beihui City, he, Councilor Liu and Ye Xiaoxian would gather together to settle the accounts.

Xiao Baozhu would also come to help, and now Jin Xiaoyu came as well.

This trip was rewarding, as always.

Besides the part that was given to Li Chengru, each of them could earn twenty two taels of silver, and Ye Xiaoxian divided the silver into pieces, so that anyone who contributed could get their pay. This is the day everyone looked forward to, since every time they got their money, Ye Xiaoxian would give them a break and they could go shopping together at the market.

When winter was coming again, those whose children were growing fast had to buy new fabric to make clothes for them.

Or if the clothes were torn, they would need to buy some new fabric to patch them up.

Also, if there wasn't enough blanket in the room, they could buy new ones at the market.

Some people went to the market simply because they love eating. The market had local delicacies, such as cold noodles and fresh lamb noodles. Some people would meet and went for a drink there. When they were on holidays, they would come over to enjoy the food.

After Tarico divided the money, he asked Jin Xiaoyu, who had just helped settle the bill, “Xiaoyu, are you free recently? Would you like to go to the market with me?”

Ye Xiaoxian, Councilor Liu and Baozhu were also there. Seeing how enthusiastic Tarico was towards Jin Xiaoyu, they seemed to understand something.

Jin Xiaoyu followed Tarico to the camel team once. It must have attracted Tarico's attention.

Thus, everyone looked at Tarico and Jin Xiaoyu.

Jin Xiaoyu didn't expect Tarico to act in such an obvious way. Indeed, young people tended to act on their impulse.

She saw that everyone was looking at her, especially Ye Xiaoxian.

So she thought that she might as well agree with Tarico, in case Ye Xiaoxian still had something lingering in her mind so that she couldn't forget Baoshan.

“Okay, when are you going?” Jin Xiaoyu asked.

“In the afternoon, I can ride over to pick you up,” Tarico said.

“Okay, but I have a younger brother. He wants to go too.”

“Alright, I'll change my saddle so it fits three,” Tarico replied warmly.

Before leaving, Tarico turned back to look at Jin Xiaoyu and said, “Then see you soon.”

He looked extremely elegant yet flirtatious.

After Tarico left, everyone inside looked at Jin Xiaoyu.

Jin Xiaoyu smiled, “It's just that young people make friends instantly.”

Councilor Liu asked, “Boss Jin isn't married yet, right? If you decide to stay in the tribe forever, you can consider Tarico. He looks like a slacker from the appearance, but he is actually very kind and passionate inside. When we first arrived, he gave us a lot of help, which shows that he is by no means xenophobic. As long as you join his camel team, you'll know he's a very capable person. All the young people in the tribe listen to him.”

Jin Xiaoyu glanced at Ye Xiaoxian.

Ye Xiaoxian didn't express anything. This was entirely a matter of personal preference. Match-making wouldn't help. What's more, if she spoke, it would seem like she was petty and she was afraid that Jin Xiaoyu would hook up with Baoshan.

Jin Xiaoyu saw that Ye Xiaoxian didn't speak and said, “Our relationship is not like what you thought at all. It's just that I think he's pretty interesting and seems like a person to hang out with.”

Councilor Liu asked, “You can't just hang out with him. Tarico is a sincere young man. He should be serious, plus, he has never liked anyone. I think the two of you are quite a good match. Both of you are so playful and carefree.”

“It's precisely because everyone is so carefree that they can have fun together. When the time comes and they don't want to have fun anymore, they can just leave, right?”

Jin Xiaoyu put down the account book in her hands and said, “Well, it's been half a day. I'm tired too. I'll go take a nap first and wait for Tarico to pick me up.”

After Jin Xiaoyu went out, Councilor Liu also said that he would go back to sleep for a while. He was old and had cast his account for such a long time. Now he felt dizzy.

After they all left, only Xiao Baozhu and Ye Xiaoxian were in the room.

Xiao Baozhu suddenly sighed.

Ye Xiaoxian found it funny and ask, “Baozhu, why did you sigh?”

Xiao Baozhu said, “Because of Jin Xiaoyu. I don't know why. Although she looks a little skittish, I kind of like her right now. If in the past, I would hate her due to her personality. But now, I think that her personality is very rare. She has the ability and courage to let go. Unlike me, I've been dragging for so long before I can really let go of someone.”

Ye Xiaoxian put her hands on Xiao Baozhu's shoulder, “You have your strengths and she has hers too. She has a temperament that can only be cultivated through tough experience. Before she had such personality, she might have suffered a lot.”

“Sister, do you still hate her now?” Xiao Baozhu asked.

Ye Xiaoxian said, “Why do I hate her? She didn't do anything wrong.”

“Then why don't you forgive my brother?” asked Xiao Baozhu.

“Those are two different matters. Besides, I don't blame your brother. He didn't do anything wrong neither. We should just follow the nature. I believe God will always make his arrangements.”

In the afternoon, Tarico came to pick up Jin Xiaoyu.

Tarico was the tribe leader who was young and handsome, so he had attracted many young girls in the tribe. Now that he was riding a horse, coming to pick up Jin Xiaoyu in such an eye-catching manner, which aroused many chit-chats among the women in the tribe.

“Boss Jin is indeed really impressive. She only went to the camel team once and was able to attract Tarico.”

“Didn't Tarico have a girl on his mind before? When he just became the tribe leader earlier this year, he admitted it in public.”

“That girl didn't like him. It was also unrealistic for him to wait forever, he must have to look for another one.”

“…”

Jin Xiaoyu came out holding Little Xun's hand and saw Tarico riding a black stallion. He was young and handsome and gave her a bright smile. Unexpectedly, her heart started racing at that moment.

She immediately told herself that he was nothing more than a brat. They were having fun today, but might become bored tomorrow.

She also knew that she wasn't the type to live at home. She was less than half virtuous than little Ye. Even if Tarico really married her, she was afraid that he would divorce her because she wouldn't do family business.

At that thought, she felt relieved.

Tarico got off the horse and handed a doll that he made with grass to Little Xun, “This is for you.”

Little Xun was always polite, “Thank you.”

“Get on the horse!” Tarico picked up Little Xun and carried him up.

Then she turned to Jin Xiaoyu, “It's your turn.”

Jin Xiaoyu climbed onto the horse by herself, followed by Tarico.

At this time, Jin Xiaoyu realized that she had made a mistake: she should borrow another horse.

Although the horse was tall, it felt crowded when three people were sitting on it. It was inevitable that they would get very close, which made her and Tarico seem intimate.

Even though Tarico didn't move, the two of them would still have body contacts. She could feel the heat behind her.

To the others, they looked like a family of three.

Jin Xiaoyu was hesitating if she should get down and borrow another horse to ride, but when she turned around, she saw Xiao Baoshan coming out of his room.

She immediately gave up this idea.

“Tarico, hurry up and leave,” Jin Xiaoyu said.

Tarico flung his whip and the dark horse started to gallop.

Jin Xiaoyu was squeezed in the middle. It was really uncomfortable.

Tarico was also being playful. The grass field here was not flat. There were many up-and-downs. He specifically led his horses to these places, because when they went up, he would stick to her back due to gravity.

When they went downhill, her body would fall to his chest.

She knew he did it on purpose, but she couldn't blame him either.

That way, it would seem like she was too sensitive and petty.

Tarico pretended that nothing happened as well. He told her about the streets and the market, about what she could buy and what she could eat.

Fortunately, they arrived at the market soon after. Tarico got off his horse and wanted to carry Jin Xiaoyu down.

Jin Xiaoyu didn't need it. She jumped right down so Tarico went to carry Little Xun.

It was rare for Little Xun to come out so he was very excited.

So Tarico started with Little Xun and took him to eat lamb noodles. As long as Little Xun went, Jin Xiaoyu could only follow.

The market wasn't big. It was only half a street from the beginning to the end. There were no fixed stores but temporary stalls set up by private sellers.

However, the taste of the lamb noodles was really good. Although it wasn't as delicious as those Ye Xiaoxian made, she didn't make it very often, and, in addition, the feeling was different to eat in a market.

“How is it?” Tarico asked Ye Xiaoxian with a smile, “Isn't it delicious?”

“It's fine.”

“Will you dislike such a small place?” Tarico asked again.

He knew Jin Xiaoyu was someone who had experienced much of the world.

Jin Xiaoyu said, “It depends on who I am eating with.”

“What about me?” Tarico was now giving himself all out, without hiding his passion and love.

“Well, with you, I don't hate you anyway.”

“The opposite of dislike, does it mean like?”

“There is no such saying.” Jin Xiaoyu liked to eat the meat on top of the noodles first. After finishing the meat, she would eat the noodles then the soup.

Seeing that she had finished eating her meat, Tarico gave her the piece of meat in his bowl.

Jin Xiaoyu was startled. She wasn't someone who was crazy about meat, but it had been a long time since someone had gave her his piece of meat.

Even though she was almost married to Xiao Baoshan in the past, she was still the one who gave Baoshan the meat, not the opposite.

“Just eat it, don't you like meat?” Tarico asked.

Jin Xiaoyu picked up her meat and gave it back to him, “No, I don't. If you don't want to eat, you can give it to Little Xun.”

“Then you can just give it to Little Xun. The meat will be yours if I give it to you. You can distribute it however you want.”

Jin Xiaoyu gave the meat to Little Xun.

Little Xun had been eating noodles quietly.

When he first came out, he didn't feel inappropriate. But eating the noodles now and watching the two chatting in front of him made him feel like he shouldn't have come out.
