At the mention of this, Ye Shengnan sneered.

“My father tied me up with a rope to prevent me from escaping! I kept begging my parents to let me leave. I said that I didn’t want to be someone’s child bride, but my father was indifferent. My mother wanted to help me plead for leniency, but she couldn’t do anything to my father!” Li Xiaoran asked with heartache, “Then what happened after that?” Ye Shengnan thought of something and her eyes turned red.

“My mother untied me while my father was asleep and let me escape.”

When Li Xiaoran and Shu Ruyue heard his words, they were a little worried about Ye Shengnan’s mother.

Shu Ruyue said, “Then what will happen to your mother if you leave? Will your father beat your mother? I’ll go back and take a look now! If your father beats your mother, I can help!”

Ye Shengnan shook her head and said, “There’s no need. I’m fine now! How could I abandon my mother? That’s why I didn’t leave at that time. Later, when my father woke up and heard what we said, he wanted to beat my mother, so I fought with my father. The wound on the corner of my mouth was created at that time. Fortunately, the person Mr. Luo and the consort sent to protect me appeared and said that he lacked a maid to serve Madam, so he bought me with ten taels of silver!”

When Li Xiaoran heard this, she immediately understood.

Li Xiaoran said, “Don’t worry, I bought you as a temporary measure. I won’t really let you be a servant! As long as you’re good at grilling fish, I can deduct some of these ten taels of silver from your monthly salary until you repay these ten taels of silver!”

Ye Shengnan was actually already prepared to sell herself as a slave, so she didn’t expect Li Xiaoran to say that.

At this moment, Ye Shengnan’s eyes turned red. She had many grateful words to say, but they were stuck in her throat.

After a while, Ye Shengnan choked on her tears as she said, “Thank you,

Princess. Don’t worry, my grilled fish skills won’t disappoint you!”

Li Xiaoran said with a smile, “That’s good! In that case, follow us! We plan to look for people who are good at grilling fish elsewhere as well!”

When Ye Shengnan heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she was stunned for a moment before asking, “Your Highness, do you need many people who are good at making grilled fish?”

Li Xiaoran nodded and asked, “That’s right! Do you know anyone who’s good at grilling fish?”

Ye Shengnan thought for a moment and said, “I actually know someone who makes very delicious roasted meat! As for grilled fish, I’ve never heard of anyone who’s good at it! Moreover, this person is actually very miserable now!”

Li Xiaoran immediately asked, “Oh really, who is this person? Where does he live now?”

She was willing to go take a look than miss out on talent.

Even if the other party’s grilled fish wasn’t good, he could sell kebabs!

Ye Shengnan recalled carefully and said, “I don’t know this person’s name. I only heard that he was called Ma San. I heard that he once got married, but later on, his wife passed away and his child was miscarried. All these years, he relied on hunting in the mountains to survive. I once met him at the market and bought the roasted meat he sold. I really won’t forget that taste for the rest of my life!”

After Li Xiaoran heard this, she said, “Then let’s go find this person! When you last saw him at the market, which market was he at?”

“It’s in Nanping Town ahead! But I heard that he doesn’t always set up a stall there. Occasionally, he sells roasted meat there. You guys can only try your luck,” Ye Shengnan said.

Li Xiaoran said, “Then let’s try our luck! We can stay in Nanping Town for a few more days!” Then, Li Xiaoran came to the carriage curtain. “Husband, is Nanping Town ahead? I heard that there’s a person called Ma San there and his kebabs are very delicious, so let’s go to Nanping Town to look for him!”

When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he thought of something and nodded. “Alright! Then let’s go to Nanping Town!”

Therefore, the group walked towards Nanping Town.

After receiving Luo Cheng’s instructions, Zi Zheng went to Nanping Town first and rented a house.

After he hired someone to quickly clean up the house, Li Xiaoran, Luo Cheng, and the others arrived.

After arriving at the house, everyone was allocated rooms and stayed there.

When they were outside, everything was simple.

Because it was midsummer, Luo Cheng asked someone to buy enough mats and lay them on the bed for them to sleep on.

The others used what they had brought themselves.

With a bed, Li Xiaoran could finally lie down comfortably and rest.

On Ye Shengnan’s side, with Zi Zheng accompanying her, she went out to buy two sets of women’s clothes.

When Li Xiaoran saw Ye Shengnan again, she realized that Ye Shengnan had already changed into a female outfit.

Ye Shengnan looked much younger than her.

Seeing this, Li Xiaoran thought of her past self.

Li Xiaoran said, “You’ve lost some weight. It’s fine. In the future, you can replenish your health with nutritious food! By the way, I asked someone to buy fish. Make grilled fish for us to try at lunch today!”

Ye Shengnan nodded and pulled on her clothes awkwardly.

She was a girl, but she had been wearing men’s clothes all these years.

At this moment, she felt uncomfortable after changing into women’s clothes.

Li Xiaoran seemed to have seen through her thoughts and reached out to pat her shoulder.

“Don’t resist your identity as a girl! Actually, a girl can be more outstanding than a man. You should be proud that you’re a girl! It’s not that you’re not used to female clothes, but you want to be a man too much. You have to accept your gender and see how outstanding you are. You’re already better than many men!”

When Ye Shengnan heard Li Xiaoran’s words, she felt acknowledged.

“Your Highness, do you really think I’m already better than many men?”

Li Xiaoran encouraged, “That’s right! Think about it. Haven’t you done what so many men can do? Haven’t you done what so many men can’t do? Don’t belittle yourself, let alone discriminate against your gender! Being a woman is also something to be proud of! Work for me and it won’t be long before you can return to your hometown! At that time, those who once looked down on you will only curry favor with you!”

When Ye Shengnan heard this, she shook her head and said, “I don’t need them to curry favor with me! I just want to bring my mother over and let her live a good life! “
