Chapter 128: Chapter 129: Someone Comes in the Middle of the Night_1

The village of Daping gradually quieted down.

Nan Feng was also laying in bed, but for some reason, perhaps due to the excitement of New Year’s Eve, her mind was still buzzing. Despite tossing and turning numerous times, she still couldn’t sleep.

If not for the warmth of her bed, she really wanted to go out for a walk.

She forced herself to calm down, avoiding any more tossing and turning. In her mind, she started counting sheep; one sheep, two sheep, three sheep...

Just as she was about to fall asleep, she seemed to hear a strange noise coming from the roof, as if someone were walking on it. After a few "crackling" sounds, the room quickly regained its silence.

She immediately threw off her blanket and sat up, calling up into the darkness, "Who’s there!"

Having trained at the Special Agent School, she had a certain level of alertness.

But the noise did not come again.

Could it have been a stray cat crawling on the roof?

Nan Feng listened carefully once more before putting on her clothes and going out.

Outside, starlight sprinkled on the ground. From afar, the occasional sound of firecrackers could be heard, the air was piercingly cold, and the wind blew strongly.

Standing in the courtyard looking up at the roof, she saw nothing.

Not far from the house, only the shadows of the trees swayed incessantly in the wind, like ghosts.

Nan Feng checked Nan Quanyou’s door once over, and after making sure his door was firmly closed, she returned to her room with a peace of mind.

As she was locking her room’s door, a thought suddenly crossed her mind: if someone really had been here tonight, then who was it...

To her knowledge, not many villagers knew martial arts, and the only person that could move freely on the roof was Ye Ge.

As she thought about this, her heartbeat began to race again.

So, no matter how many sheep she counted, she couldn’t sleep.

...

New Year’s Day.

Nan Feng woke up incredibly late due to the restless night she had. It was Nan Quanyou who woke her up.

The villagers had already started exchanging New Year’s greetings.

In previous years, aside from Uncle Lan and Aunt Lan stopping by, not many others visited. But today was completely different. Villagers came and went non-stop.

Those who had been helped by Nan Feng brought gifts to Nan Quanyou’s family. Some brought hot peppers or sugar canes they grew, some brought fruits they bought from town, and some brought homemade dim sum.

"If it weren’t for Miss Feng teaching us how to make fertilizers, our family wouldn’t be able to eat such good vegetables. We must give our New Year’s greetings to you all. May you all be healthy and grow quickly."

"If it weren’t for Miss Feng making that faucet, our rowdy boys would still be fighting over who should fetch the water. Thanks to Miss Feng, here are some crispy rolls we made at home for her."

"..."

Soon, the Nan family’s house was filled with stuff.

Nan Quanyou was quite pleased. While nobody visited in previous years, now everyone was visiting him. They even complimented his new clothes and asked where he bought them.

Nan Quanyou proudly replied, "These were bought by Fengfeng. I told her not to, but she insisted. They were quite expensive."

"Well, Elder Nan, you should be content. Your daughter Fengfeng is already so well-behaved at such a young age. My son wouldn’t eat unless I prep his meals for him."

"..."

Nan Feng felt quite satisfied. These villagers were quite simple. If you treated them well, they remembered it.

The villagers’ way of celebrating the New Year differed from Nan Meng’s. The villagers took this opportunity to give thanks, while Nan Meng’s was an attempt to gain favour and demand gifts.

Later, the village chief’s sister-in-law also came.

The sister-in-law brought quite a lot of things, even gifting pork.

Indeed, the flair of a rich family.
