Chapter 47: Chapter 47 Did You Earn A Lot Of Money_1 Chapter 47: Chapter 47 Did You Earn A Lot Of Money_1 “Huh, when did you buy this?” Nan Feng took it and looked at the big, red peaches inside.
“During our stroll in town, you probably didn’t notice,” Ye Ge said: “Second Master mentioned that you love fruits, and you pick wild fruits whenever you have free time.”
Indeed, in the past, Nan Feng’s life was filled with wild vegetables and fruits, as well as Mo Wenxuan.
This was known to everyone in the village.
Feeling a bit shy, Nan Feng clutched the bag of peaches and looked away.
…
Just like the last time, the mule cart stopped at the entrance of the village.
Nan Feng and Ye Ge had to walk the rest of the way.
As they passed the old Scholar Tree at the entrance of the village, a woman in her thirties suddenly rushed out from under the tree and blocked the road.
Nan Feng recognized this woman.
It was Mrs.
Chen, the daughter-in-law of the Zhou family.
It seemed she had been waiting under the tree for a while.
As soon as she rushed out, Mrs.
Chen asked with a stern face, “Oh, you’ve brought big and small packages again.
What did you buy?”
It was evident that Mrs.
Chen’s words were directed at Ye Ge, but Ye Ge, of course, would not argue with her.
Last time, Nan Feng didn’t know Ye Ge well enough to step in.
But now, Ye Ge had helped her a lot, so she didn’t want to stand by.
From the side, she asked, “What does it matter to you what he bought?
He didn’t spend your family’s money.”
“Oh, you’re not even married to him yet, and you’re already eager to speak for your man, you ugly freak!”
Copying Mrs.
Chen’s tone, Nan Feng responded: “Oh, as if you’re so beautiful, with wrinkles all over your face like wild daisies in the field!
While other women are like blooming flowers at thirty, you look like a bowl of tofu dregs.”
Ye Ge’s lips curled into a subtle smirk.
“You…” Mrs.
Chen had no comeback for Nan Feng, so she turned to Ye Ge: “Have you been making a lot of money recently?”
But Ye Ge ignored her as if he hadn’t heard a thing.
He just kept walking, leaving Mrs.
Chen fuming behind: “Ugly freak, he can only hunt!
Can he hunt for the rest of his life?”
Ye Ge didn’t respond to Mrs.
Chen, but Nan Feng wasn’t going to let it drop.
She spun around and shot back: “A wild boar is sold for two taels, let’s see if your husband can hunt one.”
Then she made a face.
This angered Mrs.
Chen so much that she almost stamped her foot.
Once they had walked some distance away, Nan Feng said to Ye Ge: “The Zhou family members are all troublemakers.
You need to be careful with them.”
Ye Ge didn’t say anything, just wearing an unconcerned smile on his face.
Indeed, it was inconceivable that Ye Ge would stoop to these women’s level.
His heart was massive, and he wouldn’t take these provocations to heart.
As for how much his heart could hold, Nan Feng didn’t know.
Nan Feng asked again, “Are you going hunting tomorrow?”
“I am,” Ye Ge replied.
“Then, let’s go together tomorrow.
If we cooperate, maybe we’ll get a bigger harvest, what do you think?”
Ye Ge nodded, seemingly agreeing.
Nan Feng smiled and said, “Alright, see you at dawn.”
“OK!”
…
That night, when Nan Feng gave the fabric to Nan Quanyou, he was nearly laughing with delight, touching and glancing over the dark cyan cloth incessantly.
Nan Feng also fried a bamboo rat, adding oil until it was crispy and deliciously fragrant.
Seeing her dad still clutching the cloth after dinner, she couldn’t help but laugh: “Dad, how long are you going to hold that?
How about this—you bring half a pot of the bamboo rat to Aunt Lan and ask her to make some clothes for you.
And mine too– she measured me a while ago so she should know the size.”
