A Flash Marriage Can Be A Treasure novel Chapter 83

Lily learns from Louis that the plant was discovered by David, and he occasionally obtained the paper with the address from the local people.

After getting the number of the plants he needed, David immediately reported to Louis, but the address on the paper is written in Ukrainian, which is almost extinct. In order to find someone who can know Ukrainian, they spent a lot of time.

Lily just sneered in her heart.

Yeah, they did make a lot of efforts. Mr. Louis has set traps for her many times.

The sky outside the window is getting dark, and the woman in the headscarf comes in again and wants to take Lily out for dinner.

Lily doesn’t refuse her and goes out with Louis.

After arriving at the yard, Lily finds that the yard is very bright. It turns out that the large stone placing in the yard is painted with a layer of plant dye, which is like the moon in the night.

On the open ground are several blankets made of animal fur, on which places the tables for men to sit and chat together. Children are sitting in another table, and women are preparing food.

The atmosphere is very warm, and everyone's face is full of happiness.

"It's so nice here." The scene seems like a painting, quiet and beautiful, which makes Lily envious. She can take her time slowly here, and she doesn't have to worry about anything.

"Well, stay here for two more days if you like it." The woman named Aisha says with a smile.

She brings Lily and Louis to a group of people, "Head, this is Sumier and her husband Saha. They get lost when they were selling goods on the road."

The village head seems to be about thirty years old, with wrinkles in the corners of his eyes, and he looks young and healthy. If she doesn’t know about the plant, Lily really thinks he is only thirty years old.

When she comes out, she notices that there are basically no elderly people here.

"Hello, head." Lily becomes more proficient at this language and bows towards the village head, "Thank you for taking care of us. I'm so grateful to you."

"Aisha is right. You can speak our language." The village head is also surprised, "I thought no one would speak this language except the people in our village."

The village chief arranges for Lily and Louis to sit beside him and they chat casually.

Lily has made up a perfect story for herself and Louis. She would answer any question the village head asks, and sometimes she pretends to be pitiful. The "dumb" Louis just stays silently.

After talking for a few minutes, the village head asks, "What kind of business do you do?"

Lily is in trouble.

God. She didn't ask Mr. Louis before in the house.

She nudges Louis with her elbow, and she doesn’t turn her face, "Mr. Louis, the village head asks what business did we do."

Louis takes a cake from the plate and feeds Lily, and says in a low voice, "Vegetables and cotton seeds."

When the warm breath blows on Lily's ear, Lily shudders and bites his fingers.

She quickly puts the rice cake in her mouth and calmly says, "We sell vegetable seeds and cotton seeds."

"Vegetable seeds?" The village head becomes interested. Their land is suitable for planting, but because of language barrier, they cannot go out and communicate with people, nor can they change these goods.

The scarcest thing in the village is vegetables, and what they eat is from hunting.

Lily nods and says sadly, "My family is doing this kind of business, but my dad doesn't like Saha. The seeds I brought from home can't be sold, so I have to sell them here."

"May the Lord bless you." The village head says, "We are short of vegetables and cotton. If you like it, I will replace it with animal fur."

"No, you're welcome. I can give those seeds to you." Lily shakes her head and says sincerely, "If it weren't for Aisha's food, my baby would starve to die. You are my benefactor. We get lost and we don’t know where that truck is."

The head says, "It's okay. You and Saha have a good rest here tonight. I'll let people go out to find your truck tomorrow."

"Thank you."

After finishing the conversation, Lily takes a long breath.

While the head turns his head to talk to other people, she tells Louis what she has just talked about.
