The two big white geese flapped their wings a few times and honked loudly at the sound.
"Hey, it’s not like I want to eat you, can you not target me ..." Su Ge thought for a second, then quietly pointed towards the cabin, "It’s that handsome man who wants to eat you, he’s mentioned it a few times in front of me, you better watch out for him."
Chu Yihan had been working till late last night and was now sound asleep; he definitely couldn’t hear her snitching.
The two big white geese didn’t seem to understand what she was saying but suddenly stopped making noise.
"Truly bullies the weak and fears the strong!" Su Ge shook her head and then looked towards the horizon, where the rising sun was slowly climbing, its golden rays spilling down and coating the whole mountaintop in a layer of warm color.
"It’s so beautiful." Thinking that she was going to leave soon, Su Ge actually felt a bit reluctant.
She glanced around the garden, wondering if there was anything she could take with her as a souvenir.
When Chu Yihan came out of the cabin, there were already a few piles of vegetables in the yard. For original chapters go to NoveI-Fire.ɴet
Dew was still on the leaves of the vegetables, clearly having been freshly picked.
He instinctively looked at the two busy servants, who hurriedly shook their heads in denial.
They hadn’t picked them.
Only then did Chu Yihan stroll outside the yard and saw in a plot of the vegetable garden, a petite woman squatting and grunting while pulling at the vegetables.
She wore a green dress that blended in with the garden; if one didn’t look carefully, she’d be almost invisible.
"Su Xiaoge, what are you doing?"
The man’s cold voice suddenly rang out, startling Su Ge who had been struggling to pull out a large radish. She’d been pulling at it for quite a while without success, but the fright from the voice made her pull it out unexpectedly, and at the same time, she fell backward into the vegetable patch.
The man’s brows knitted, and he quickly walked into the vegetable garden, grabbed the collar of the woman’s dress from the back and lifted her up.
Su Ge looked at his dark face with a bit of embarrassment, clutching the large white radish in her hands, "I’m... I was pulling out radishes..."
"Was it you pulling out the radish, or the radish pulling you out?" the man didn’t give her any face.
Su Ge pouted and muttered under her breath, "This radish is just too big..."
The small radishes come out with just a tug.
And besides, if he hadn’t scared her suddenly, would she have fallen?
"Su Xiaoge, since when has the Chu Family ever starved you?"
"Uh..." Su Ge glanced at the vegetables she had pulled up, then looked at the white radish in her hand, "These are local specialties, taking them back home would be very meaningful."
"You’re not allowed to bring any back home!" Chu Yihan still had a stern face.
This woman must be trying to drive Assistant Ling to his death, right?
Su Ge placed the radish on the ground and pitifully tugged at the man’s clothes, "Yihan... let me take just a little bit back with me..."
When Ling Feng arrived, seeing the pile of vegetables in the yard, his face was full of astonishment.
"Fourth Master... what are these?"
Chu Yihan cleared his throat and didn’t speak.
Su Ge quickly said with a giggling smile, "Assistant Ling, these are local specialties, and I am planning to take them back with us."
"Take back home?" Ling Feng’s face changed in a second, "You can’t take them, there’s no room in the car for all that!"
He wasn’t here to transport vegetables.
Su Ge’s smile suddenly froze on her face, "Can’t we bring just a little bit?"
Su Ge’s face was immediately full of disappointment, but Ling Feng didn’t spare her a single glance, his attitude was very resolute.
Su Ge silently turned to look at Chu Yihan.
"Take some back with us," Chu Yihan spoke indifferently. His voice was light but carried an undeniable command.
