187 I Know How to Kill People

No matter how delicious it was, it was still potato.

Madam Yang curled her lips and went to the warehouse to get ten fresh potatoes. “Give Granny and your mother a bite. You don’t have to pay two copper coins.”

Little Peach thought that it was worth it, so she handed the spiral potato to them and instructed, “Just one bite. You can’t continue biting from here onwards.”

Madam Yang opened her mouth. Before she could take a bite, Little Peach revealed a pained expression.

When Madam Yang bit down, her heart felt like it was about to shatter.

This amused Little Peach’s mother at the side.

Madam Yang was right. No matter how delicious the potatoes were, they were still potatoes. However, the ketchup really surprised her. It was sweet and sour. When paired together, it was really delicious and left a deep impression. She wanted to take another bite to savor it.

Seeing her grandmother take a bite, smack her lips, and look at the spiral potato like she still wanted to eat, Little Peach quickly said, “It’s time for Mother to take a bite.”

Madam Yang said softly, “You heartless girl. To think that your grandmother treats you so well.”

Little Peach frowned. After serious consideration, she said bitterly, “Alright, then. I’ll let grandma take another bite later.”

The wrinkles at the corners of Madam Yang’s eyes immediately bloomed into a flower. “Good child.”

The next day, the children carried their baskets to look for Bai Wutong.

In unison, their baskets were filled with potatoes.

The little children all smiled knowingly and handed the potatoes eagerly to Bai Wutong. “Madam, here are the potatoes for you.”

Bai Wutong just asked them to give one each to her. Each of these children carried a basket of them, and Zhao Erwa had even more. There were at least five kilograms in each basket.

The adults were afraid that Bai Wutong would make a loss. Although the spiral potatoes were made of potatoes, they still had to be fried and stewed in ketchup.

Each skewer of spiral potatoes was definitely more expensive than a skewer of candied hawthorn that only cost three copper coins, so they asked the children to bring more potatoes over.

Bai Wutong smiled and said, “It’s too much. Take some back. Potatoes aren’t worth much.”

The little children expressed that they were not much at all and that they would be beaten up if they took it back. However, they kept staring at Bai Wutong, their eyes saying that they still wanted to eat the spiral potatoes.

Chu Tianbao thought that he had hidden his thoughts well and tried to help her resolve her worries. “Wife, if they’re unwilling to take it back, let’s fry them to make spiral potatoes.”

If Bai Wutong fried spiral potatoes, she would definitely not forget about his share.

He thought that Bai Wutong could not tell his hidden intentions.

Little did he know that she had long seen through him. He was the one who was most impatient and wanted to eat the spiral potatoes.

The corners of her mouth curled up as she glanced at him. “Then you’ll make them?”

Chu Tianbao thought about it and felt that it should be quite easy. He patted his chest and replied manly, “Yes, I’ll make it! Wife, you can rest!”

He could still fry a few more skewers for himself. Just thinking about it made him happy.

Bai Wutong’s smile deepened as she looked at the eager children. “Master Chu is going to make you guys spiral potatoes.”

The children immediately jumped up and cheered. “Oh yeah, Master Chu is so nice!”

Qu Xin’er was locked in the room to reflect on her mistakes and was only released the next day.

Seeing that she was unhappy, the maidservant said to her, “Miss, I’ll go pick lotus flowers for you. The lotus flowers in the pond are especially beautiful.”

Qu Xin’er thought of the koi fish in the lotus pond and said, “I want to see the fish!”

The maidservant said worriedly, “It’s too dangerous by the pond. Let’s not go!”

Qu Xin’er said angrily, “I said I want to go!”

Instead of letting Qu Xin’er run out herself, the maidservants had no choice but to accept their fate and bring her there. They also gave each other a look, promising that they would not let her do anything rash, or they would be implicated and be punished.

When Qu Xin’er arrived at the lotus pond and saw the koi fish swimming freely in the lotus pond and competing to eat the food she threw, she picked up a rock and threw it into the water.

“Plop.”

The fishes scattered in shock. After a while, they swam towards her to ask for food again.

Their swimming figures were extremely beautiful, but Qu Xin’er did not feel pity for them at all.

She just wanted to vent all the humiliation she had suffered for the past few days.

The tears she held back fell into the pond one after another as she picked up the rocks.

They were just a group of country bumpkins. So what if she scolded them? Not only did they hit her palm, but they also punished her to face the wall to reflect.

The maidservants looked at each other and pitied these beautiful carps for being bullied by Qu Xin’er for no reason.

Suddenly, a cheerful silver bell sounded in front of the lotus pond.

Qu Xin’er quickly wiped her tears and looked in that direction.

A group of little children holding spiral potatoes appeared in her line of sight.

The little children were not afraid of her at all. They came to the pavilion where she was and knelt on the ground. As they ate the spiral potatoes, they looked at the koi in the pond. The cheerful scene was a stark contrast to Qu Xin’er and the others.

As the daughter of an official, Qu Xin’er had been taught of her superior status since she was young.

Seeing that this group of little children was ignoring her, she was about to flare up when her maidservants hurriedly stopped her. “Miss, you just ended your punishment.”

She was reminding Qu Xin’er that if she made another mistake, she would be locked up again.

Qu Xin’er gritted her teeth. Seeing that they were holding something delicious in their hands, she started to find fault with them again. “What are they eating? I want to eat it too!”

How could the maidservants know what this was? They could only go forward and ask the seemingly easygoing Little Peach, “Young lady, what are you eating?”

Little Peach said proudly, “We’re eating Madam Bai’s spiral potato!”

Qu Xin’er immediately looked disdainful. “What an ugly-sounding name!”

Her words immediately angered the little children.

Little Peach pointed the spiral potato at her, just like Qingfeng drawing her sword. “You’re the one who’s ugly! Not only are you ugly, but your mouth is also foul!”

Qu Xin’er stepped forward and was about to grab Little Peach’s spiral potato. “Who are you calling foul-mouthed?! Country bumpkin, country bumpkin!”

Zhao Erwa stood in front of Little Peach, preventing Qu Xin’er from bullying Little Peach, who was half a head shorter. “You have a foul mouth! Why? If you are unhappy, let’s fight”

Qu Xin’er exploded in anger and looked at the maidservants. “Beat them up!”

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhao Erwa pulled out the wooden sword at his waist and said aggressively, “Swords have no eyes! Let’s see which one of you dares to look over!”

Little Peach also ate up all her spiral potato quickly. She puffed up her cheeks and glared at Qu Xin’er with her cute eyes. “I know how to kill people!”

Her cute appearance made the maidservants smile, but they quickly restrained themselves and said to Qu Xin’er, “Miss, Second Young Master will come to look for you in a while. If you want to eat spiral potatoes, let’s go find Madam Cui and get someone to make it for you.”

Little Peach immediately made a face. “Madam Cui doesn’t know how to make it. Only our Madam Bai and Master Chu know how to make spiral potatoes!”

Qu Xin’er glared at her.

Zhao Erwa added, “Even if she knows how to make it, they won’t let you eat it! If you have such a foul mouth, Xiaobai will chase you out!”
