The Eldest Daughter of a Rural Family-Chapter 1173 - 270: Ulterior Motives_2

"Qin... Sister Qin... what on earth are you doing?" Xiao Yong’s eyes widened as he stepped back.

Pei Qin chuckled menacingly as she pressed forward, "Kid! Spill it, which girl have you got an early crush on?"

Xiao Yong was stunned for a moment, then looked deeply into her eyes with a resigned smile, "Sister Qin! I haven’t had a rest for the past two years, and I haven’t met any girl, where would I get the chance for an early romance!"

"Really!? I’ve seen you daydreaming though!" Pei Qin was very suspicious.

Thinking of his first kiss, he quickly suppressed the thought and grabbed some items, ready to head out the door, "I can’t even meet a girl, let alone have an early romance! And when I’m daydreaming, it’s not about girls!"

Pei Qin sighed sympathetically, "It looks like you really need to encounter someone at a banquet. Workaholics can’t find a partner! With such good prospects, you’ve ended up as a leftover man!"

Xiao Yong’s mouth twitched, "Sister Qin..."

"Go out more and create accidental encounters! Young man! In any grand love affair, there’s always one who must play the rascal first! You need to learn a thing or two from the male prostitute!" Pei Qin patted his shoulder earnestly as she gave her comforting advice.

"To learn from a male prostitute about peeping at women bathing and stealing their clothes..." Xiao Yong looked at her expressionlessly.

Pei Qin coughed twice, "A male prostitute isn’t that bad, at least he and the Weaving Maid were in love!" Some beast ravished her completely and even left a seed behind.

Xiao Yong turned and sat at the table, frowning, "I don’t like those pretentious, self-important, and conceited women!"

Seeing his distress, Pei Qin also sat down and comforted him, "Don’t say you don’t like them, I believe most men don’t. The few exceptions, let’s not mention those! When it comes to taking a wife, you’ll definitely marry someone you like, someone suitable. If you dislike all those types, with Great Chu being so vast, maybe your destiny lies somewhere out there!" This Radish has grown up alongside Pei Wendong and Chang Yonglin, both of whom have partners now, leaving Xiao Yong alone. He must be feeling lonely.

"I don’t like any of them." Xiao Yong looked at her. In all the world, none compared to her!

Pei Qin looked at him skeptically, her face growing uglier by the second, then reached out and grasped his collar, "Spit it out!"

Xiao Yong was abruptly pulled close to her, and instinctively slowed his breathing, "Spit out what?"

"Have you started liking men?" Pei Qin asked, her voice dark.

The flirtatious moment, really just a moment, was utterly punctured by her next words. Xiao Yong darkened, removing her hand, "I don’t like men!"

Pei Qin didn’t believe it. He wasn’t a naive youth, ignorant from spending all his days reading at home. He had seen the world from north to south; surely he couldn’t be devoid of any affection for someone? If it wasn’t for liking men, then what could it be?

"I like myself! Is that good enough!" Xiao Yong was exasperated by her line of reasoning and wild guesses.

Pei Qin looked him up and down in surprise. Among the three Radishes, he wasn’t the tallest, nor the fairest, but he was definitely the most handsome. The more he grew, the more defined and striking his face became, deep-set eyes sparkling with intelligence, paired with his tall and erect figure. Logically speaking, there should be quite a few who liked him. But she didn’t expect even he would like himself! Her face crumpled for a long while before she finally raised her hand to pat his shoulder, "Forcing it will only lead to ruin, take good care of your health regularly! Eat more goji berries and leeks! And... get plenty of rest!"

It took Xiao Yong a while to understand the implications of her words, insinuating he pleasured himself. Immediately his face turned bright red, "Sister Qin!"

"Are you coming back for dinner tonight? I’ll ask the kitchen to add a dish of stir-fried chives with pig kidneys!" Pei Qin said as she went out, taking Lu Hai and the maidservant with her to get busy with the meal.

Xiao Yong’s thoughts ran wild for a while, and he quickly took his belongings and left.

On the way, he saw Madam Jun checking the groceries. He instructed her directly, "I’m not coming back for dinner!"

Madam Jun quickly bowed in acknowledgment. As he strode out of the door with his entourage, she sighed silently. She had once hoped her daughter might end up with General Pei, which would have been a stroke of fortune in her lifetime, but who would have thought General Pei turned out to be a woman, forbidding further consideration. She also found General Pei’s personal soldier, Zhao Yong, quite appealing, but now knowing he’s a Prince, she dared not entertain the idea any longer.

She better find a suitable match for Su Xue quickly, with more people coming and going after the New Year. If she delayed any longer and Su Xue aged, it would be even harder to find a match!

Hearing that Xiao Yong wouldn’t be coming back for dinner, Pei Qin sighed, "A child doesn’t stay under the parents’ control when they grow up!"

"Do you have a son that big?" Mo Heng came over with discontent in his expression.

"According to my age, I should... probably... not!" Pei Qin observed his face and quickly corrected herself. When it came down to it, with her two lifetimes combined, she’d be old enough in ancient times to have a grown son! Hahahaha!
