Chapter 1188: Chapter 1190: Xiao’ai, Dabao, Xiaobei

Xia Dabao stopped and waited for Tian Xiaobei to finish speaking.

Tian Xiaobei scratched his head and then said, "So Zhao Datu went to your house to propose today?"

"Yes, he did," Xia Dabao said.

"And did you agree?"

"We didn’t agree. It’s just not possible," Xia Dabao said.

Tian Xiaobei then laughed, "That’s right. Is your finger still hurting? How about I cut the grass for you today as well?"

"Is that okay?" Xia Dabao said.

"The grass is too damp. It’s better if your hand doesn’t get wet," Tian Xiaobei said while putting down Xia Dabao’s basket and beginning to cut the grass.

After a while, Zhao Datu actually showed up as well.

Once Zhao Datu arrived, he walked straight over to Xia Dabao without saying a word, simply standing there, which confused Xia Dabao, "Zhao Datu, what is wrong with you?"

"Why did you refuse my proposal?" Zhao Datu asked.

"Why can’t I refuse?" Xia Dabao answered.

"..." This question stumped Zhao Datu. After a pause, he asked again, "But I really do want to marry you. We both have ’Da’ in our names; don’t you think we’re well matched?"

"Li Datu from the head of the village shares your name, why don’t you go marry him?" Xia Dabao asked.

Zhao Datu stepped closer, pressing Xia Dabao, who took a step back, "If you keep this up, I’ll hit you!"

"Hit me," Zhao Datu challenged like a rogue, lowering his head and pointing at it, "Go on, hit here. If you don’t want to marry me, then might as well beat me to death!"

Facing such rogue behavior, Tian Xiaobei hurried over and stood between them, "Datu, don’t be like this!"

"What’s wrong with being like this? And you," Zhao Datu pointed at Tian Xiaobei, "it’s because you’re always clinging to Abao, making her lose her mind. Otherwise, she would definitely be willing to marry me. Now look, the two of you are cutting grass together every day, and I’m suffering silently alone. Do you know how much my heart hurts..."

Before Zhao Datu could finish, Xia Dabao fiercely kicked him from the front, sending him tumbling over.

Xia Dabao stepped out from beside Tian Xiaobei and approached Zhao Datu, "I’ll be straight with you, I will absolutely not marry you, no matter what. Zhao Datu, you rogue, if you’re asking for a beating just come by every day, I’ll beat you to death."

Zhao Datu sat on the grass, desperate and unwilling to get up. Xia Dabao didn’t leave him any dignity; when she said she would fight, she fought. And most humiliating of all, he couldn’t fight back against her.

...

The next afternoon, Xia Dabao went to cut fish grass again with her basket on her back. However, when she got to the riverside, she didn’t see Tian Xiaobei but only Zhao Datu was there.

Seeing Xia Dabao, Zhao Datu greeted her, "Dabao, over here."

Xia Dabao looked around again and, not seeing Tian Xiaobei, couldn’t help but ask, "Where’s Xiaobei? Did you lock him up, or was he sent somewhere by your family?"

"Oh, him? The pigs at home got diarrhea. I sent him up the mountain to gather herbs."

"Herbs?" Xia Dabao knew that those herbs could only be found in the back mountain, and the area where the herbs were might be frequented by wolves. There were also traps set by hunters nearby. Let alone Tian Xiaobei, who grew up in Provincial City, even the villagers sometimes got caught in those traps.
