My Princess Holds Superpowers-Chapter 29 - : Arrived in town on the 29th
Chapter 29: Arrived in town on the 29th
And her status within the Ye Family was all thanks to Mrs. He’s support.
Sometimes, even Ye Jiu herself didn’t understand what Mrs. He was thinking, favoring her, the younger daughter, to such an extent and not showing much affection to her own son.
Fearing that Ye Jiu might not know anything for her first trip out, Mrs. He pulled Ye Gaosheng aside and reiterated the instructions to him. After Ye Gaosheng promised repeatedly, the three of them finally set off.
On the road, Ye Gaosheng carried a basket on his back, filled with chicken eggs and a chicken, while Ye Jiu and Ye Wenqing walked quickly beside him.
From the dim light of dawn until it was fully bright, Ye Jiu felt like her legs, which had never really been exercised, were almost not her own anymore.
Perhaps she was just unlucky; even though her pockets were filled with money prepared by Mrs. He, they didn’t encounter a single ox cart on the road, so they had to keep walking on their own two legs.
...
Halfway through, Ye Gaosheng handed the basket over to Ye Wenqing to carry.
Ye Jiu thought he was tired, so she took turns with Ye Wenqing carrying the basket, but she didn’t expect that after Ye Gaosheng handed it back, he squatted in front of Ye Jiu and asked caringly, “Little sister, are you tired? Come on, let your fourth brother carry you for a while so you can rest your feet.”
Ye Jiu was so moved she could hardly speak, “Fourth brother, I’m not tired yet…”
Before she could finish, Ye Gaosheng grabbed her arm, looped it around his neck, then supported her legs with his hands and stood up, “Your legs are too short; if we continue like this, the market might be over by the time we get to the town. It’s better if I carry you so we can go faster, alright, let’s get there early and sell our goods to head back home.”

Ye Jiu: Truly a pointless bout of being moved.
Ye Jiu couldn’t help but sadly look down at her somewhat warm little legs. Although she was already 10 years old, she rarely walked around, and perhaps because of her slow development, her stature among her peers was… indeed quite short.
Furthermore, her body, nourished by Mrs. He’s care, made her already not very tall figure seem even shorter.
But being short was one thing; being subtly looked down upon by Ye Gaosheng was another matter entirely.
Regardless, even though she was now lying on Ye Gaosheng’s back, Ye Jiu really felt quite sad and indignant in her heart.
However, once Ye Gaosheng carried Ye Jiu, they indeed moved much faster.
It was also then that Ye Jiu realized the reason they had been walking so slowly at first was purely because Ye Gaosheng and Ye Wenqing had been waiting for her.
…
Although Shuangxi Town was small, its scale was not insignificant. The streets were packed with people, bustling enough to be called prosperous. The ultimate reason was that it was the only market town within a radius of ten miles, where everyone came for the market days.
By the time Ye Jiu and her companions arrived, the sun was already high in the sky. It wasn’t Ye Gaosheng’s first time here selling eggs, so he knew his way around.
He swiftly led the two to Vegetable Market Street, found a vacant spot, took out the chicken eggs and the chicken from the basket, laid them on the ground, then lifted his head and said to Ye Jiu, “Little sister, wait here for a bit. After I sell the goods, I’ll buy you some candy.”
Turning to Ye Wenqing, Ye Gaosheng instructed, “Wenqing, keep a close eye on your little aunt, make sure she doesn’t get lost. Otherwise, when we get back, Grandma will surely whip us both.”
