Chapter 269: Auspicious Beginning

As soon as this extravagant ship sailed over, many people’s gazes were attracted to it. Everyone around the river revealed looks of surprise and envy.

However, it was common for ships to travel frequently on the Yuan River. After many people exclaimed, they dispersed their gazes and did their own things.

The giant ship stopped in front of the docks. As soon as it arrived, the other ships avoided it, leaving a large area for the giant ship to dock.

The giant ship stopped, and then people disembarked one after another. First, there were two rows of girls in pink dresses. From their attitudes, it was obvious that they were maidservants.

Two people slowly walked out from the two rows of maidservants.

Their clothes were silk and satin. On the moon-colored clothes, there was a layer of soft pearl light. The woman’s cloud bun was stacked and she wore gold and jade. The jade and golden hairpins on her head reflected each other and glowed.

The woman was tall and slender. She had a noble aura. Her skin was white as snow, and her appearance was not alluring. However, she was pleasing to the eye and her eyebrows were delicate.

She frowned slightly and looked down at the little girl beside her with worry.

She bent down slightly and held the girl’s hand. That girl was wearing a light purple dress. The material of the dress was similarly expensive and oppressive. The light purple color was extremely vivid, and there seemed to be a layer of gleamy luster on the surface. When she walked, the ripples caused by the dress revealed the softness of the material.

The girl looked like she was carved from jade. She had big eyes, a small nose, and red cherry lips. However, her face was filled with weakness at this moment. Her little mouth was pursed and her eyebrows were slightly furrowed.

Her face was a little pale and she looked a little weak.

The woman looked down at the girl and frowned. She opened her red lips and said something to the girl.

The girl pursed her lips and paused for a moment before speaking softly. She replied with a few words and closed her mouth, her expression still weary.

The woman’s frown deepened. She looked down at the girl again and turned her head worriedly. She looked ahead as if thinking of a solution.

The maidservants escorted the woman and the girl down the huge ship. When they landed, the group took a few steps forward.

Ye Lulu was quickly cooking Malatang. After adding two sticks of vegetables, she was thinking about planting some spinach and cabbage next time. She was so busy opening her stall that she forgot about it today.

Not far away, the mother and daughter, who were surrounded by maidservants, walked forward. The girl, who looked uncomfortable, smelled something fresh and spicy in the air. Suddenly, her little face turned around, and her large eyes became a little brighter. She looked around as if searching for the source of the smell.

The smell of Malatang was indeed unique among the food vendors at the docks.

The girl turned her head to the left and quickly locked onto Ye Lulu’s stall. She immediately tugged at the woman’s hand, which was holding hers, and said something.

The woman was surprised, but her expression slowly relaxed again. She turned around and looked at Ye Lulu. Then, without any surprise, she led the girl over.

Ye Lulu was selling Malatang when the crowd in front of her suddenly dispersed. Two rows of maidservants walked over, and a fragrant wind blew. When the people who were in a hurry to rush up saw them, they all consciously moved aside and left an empty path.

Everyone knew that someone important had come.

The gathered people could not help but be silent.

Revealing the poised and noble mother and daughter, the woman slowly walked up with the girl.

Ye Lulu raised her head when she heard this and immediately raised her eyebrows. One look and she knew that this pair of mother and daughter had extraordinary statuses. They might be from some royal family.

They could meet such people at the docks?

Ye Lulu was not stubborn at all.

What she meant was that she did not insist on adhering to certain rules like the female leads in novels who transmigrated; or say that since she had set them, they couldn’t be subverted even if she died. On the contrary, she was very flexible and didn’t mind.

Although she said that people needed to queue, she did not say anything when this mother-daughter pair appeared and walked forward. In any case, the other citizens who had automatically retreated understood her.

“Madam, what do you want? Our family is selling Malatang. It’s spicy, but not the usual kind of light spiciness. It’s a certain level of spicy. It’s numbing and spicy. I don’t know if it’s suitable for you to eat.”

She took the initiative and spoke first.

When the woman heard that, she indeed frowned slightly. She stretched her neck and looked into the steaming pot.

This woman did not ask Ye Lulu to pay her respects. She only frowned and looked at Ye Lulu’s pot.

“Is your food very spicy? So spicy that it burns your tongue? How does a child eat it?”

Ye Lulu had not replied.

A maidservant beside her took a step forward and said to the woman, “Madam, this small stall is located at the empty space between the sky and the ground. Dust is everywhere. There are many people here, and it’s unknown if what they have on them will fall into the pot. Furthermore… the ingredients used by this small stall are far inferior to what you usually use. Even the lowest-ranking servants eat better than this stall. Madam, how can you eat such food? The young miss is delicate, so…”

“Madam, why don’t you think carefully about buying food from this stall?”

The maidservant didn’t look at the stall beside her even from the corner of her eye. She only bowed and spoke to the woman with an extremely respectful expression.

However, her clothes were of superior quality and were better than most people at the docks, let alone a person in the mountains like Ye Lulu, who came out to do business.

Furthermore, in order to make it convenient to cook Malatang, Ye Lulu even wore ordinary rough clothes. As it was hot when she was busy, her clothes were not thick.

Compared to the maidservant in front of her, the difference was a little too great.

It was no wonder that the maidservant did not look at Ye Lulu at all.

Upon hearing the maidservant’s words, Ye Lulu raised her eyebrows and smiled calmly.

In fact, that maidservant was sincere. How could she casually buy food from a stall by the road for the young miss?

Wasn’t this… ridiculous?

The woman frowned again. She didn’t reprimand the maidservant for overstepping her boundaries, but she said, “So what if it’s a small stall? So many people have eaten it. Can’t we do the same? Don’t say too many words.”

“Furthermore, Miss is seasick and wants to vomit. She finally has food that she wants to eat. Otherwise, can you find another type of food that Miss wants to eat?”

“Yes.” The maidservant was speechless and could only retreat.

The girl being held in the woman’s hand, who was also the one who had vomited on the boat, was in a very bad mood. When she smelled this spicy and numbing fragrance, her discomfort finally decreased a little. Her little face became a little energetic as she looked up at the pot longingly.
