The Delicate Darling with Her Rough Man novel Chapter 296

Chapter 296: Chapter 292: Do You Buy Ointment

Thinking of the events from her past life, Xu Wenwan couldn’t help but pout. Her cousin’s luck was just too good.

She’d been hunted down and still hadn’t died.

But that was fine.

She knew plenty of her cousin’s medicinal formulas. Soon, she would use them to launch her own business!

The more Xu Wenwan thought about it, the happier she became. She hugged the "teapot" and planted a kiss right on it.

Just as the old gatekeeper walked in, he witnessed this scene, and his face instantly twisted as if he were constipated.

His gaze on Xu Wenwan turned strange.

’This girl is pretty, and she’s well-dressed, too.’

’But why does she have such a strange quirk?’

’Hugging a chamber pot, caressing and kissing it.’

’There must be something wrong with her!’

The old gatekeeper rubbed his face, glanced down at his own physique, and suddenly felt a little afraid.

He immediately forgot about needing to pee and scurried back to his guard post to look for a handy weapon to protect himself.

Xu Wenwan, still oblivious that the "teapot" in her hands was actually a chamber pot, cradled it like a precious treasure.

’This is my startup capital, and it’s porcelain. I can’t let it get bumped or scratched, or it won’t sell for a good price.’

Carrying the chamber pot, she continued to rummage through the scrap heap with her free hand, hoping to find a second antique.

Seeing Xu Wenwan like this, the system remained silent.

It needed Xu Wenwan to help it collect destiny, but despite mentioning it several times, she kept refusing.

This was not the outcome it desired.

It didn’t understand human nature, but it knew what mattered most to Xu Wenwan.

And what she cared about most was Gu Jiaojiao.

’The system formulated a plan.’

After rummaging for a while longer and finding nothing, Xu Wenwan could only take the chamber pot to the old gatekeeper to pay.

As she approached, the old man was clearly a little nervous.

’This guy is strange,’ Xu Wenwan thought. She carefully set down the chamber pot. "How much is it?"

The old man glanced at Xu Wenwan, a glint in his eye. "Two yuan."

’This thing is just a chamber pot that nobody wants. Fifty cents would have been plenty.’

’But she’s so careful with it, she must really like it. So, two yuan it is.’

There were also some foraged goods from the mountains.

This kind of small-scale trading was unregulated.

Gu Jiaojiao was clearly a little surprised. "Yeah! Are you here to shop too?"

Rooster Head nodded.

"Yep! My older brother is hosting a dinner tomorrow, so I figured I’d buy something to bring over."

Rooster Head immediately bought two old hens and some eggs.

Gu Jiaojiao found it a bit strange, though for a moment she couldn’t put her finger on why.

As it happened, she had some business with Rooster Head.

"By the way, I have something I need to ask you. Let’s talk over on the side."

Rooster Head hesitated for a moment before nodding.

The two of them moved to the side.

Gu Jiaojiao began in a low voice.

"I was wondering if you buy medicinal ointments and pills."
