Transmigrated as the Treacherous Official's Childhood Sweetheart-Chapter 220: Thugs

Women have a natural love for shopping. After making a round, Lu He gathered a pile of items, unable to carry them all with just two hands.

Copper basin, mirror, salt, face towel, water cup, a quilt, a pillow...

Lu He struggled to carry them back.

A graceful lady in a light green brocade dress, carrying a heap of items back, always stands out.

Zhang Dash and Sun Lin, with lewd expressions, squinted as they stared at the young lady’s figure, lust evident in their faces.

They didn’t dare to get too close, following from afar.

Judging by her attire, they surmised that the lady in the light green brocade dress must be from a good family, or at worst, a village woman. The items in her hands are everyday necessities.

She couldn’t be a maid from a wealthy household. Typically, purchases from large households are handled by the butler directly, pre-ordered to be delivered to the residence. At worst, they are bought by servants from within the residence. They wouldn’t send a maid to carry such parcels back.

Zhang Dash was tall, with large nostrils, buck teeth, a large mole below his mouth, and eyes narrowed into slits, tightly focusing on the buttocks of the lady in the light green brocade dress.

Fully displaying his vulgarity.

Sun Lin wasn’t as tall as the man beside him, shorter and thinner, sharp-faced with a lecherous look in his eyes.

The woman ahead seemed unaware, happily strolling forward.

After turning two large curves, shortly after, she arrived at a place not far from the market, with fewer people. There was a large tree, with abundant leafy branches.

Underneath the tree on a stone bench sat a person, wearing a long-sleeved robe, waist bound with a belt, with a long scar on his face. Next to him was a carriage, the horse standing quietly beside it, occasionally pawing the ground lightly.

From a hundred meters away, Lu He began to call out.

"Young master, I’m back. I bought a lot of things for you—to use the copper basin for washing your face. I also bought new face towels and a pillow so you can sleep more soundly. And I bought a mirror for myself and an extra quilt also for me..."

Even before she got there, she was already chattering on.

Zhang Dash and Sun Lin followed to this point. Seeing there was another man, they hid against the side wall.

The two exchanged glances, deciding to watch the situation unfold quietly without taking action yet.

Lu He walked up to Zhao Jun, waving the items in her hands with a smile: "Young master, look, I bought a lot of things for us to use. I know previously you used only the best, and now you’ll just have to make do for a while."

She placed each item into the carriage nearby.

There was a table by the stone bench, and she sat down holding two bags of buns.

"Here, these are buns, our breakfast plus lunch. Once we finish eating, we need to hurry on our way."

She pushed the meat buns over, keeping the steamed buns for herself, and grabbed one, gnawing away. The soft white bun was just the right texture.

Regretting not buying a few more, having them on the road would be quite enjoyable too.

No telling how long until they reach the next town.

Traveling north all the way, another three hundred kilometers to Capital City, where they could see her grandparents.

The woman in the light green brocade dress took big bites of the bun, savoring it even more. The future lay ahead, a life where clothes and food would be at her beck and call.

Living in bliss.

Clothes at her beck and call? Looking at her hands, which had become calloused from driving the carriage recently.

The bun suddenly lost its appeal, and Lu He stared at her palms, lost in thought.

The man opposite seemed to read her thoughts, quietly spoke: "In the future, once we have more silver, you can take good care of yourself."

"Mm." She replied, not saying anything further.

They quickly finished the buns.
