Chapter 1336: Chapter 1158: Xiao’ai, Dabao, Xiaobei

"A female heroine who can’t even take care of herself, how is she going to protect others? But those ladies are the daughters of some hall masters below us, and I don’t feel it’s my place to say much. Anyway, I just think that Dabao is much better than them. Dabao is capable and straightforward, without so many twisted thoughts in her mind. But, do you really want her to farm for her whole life?" Lu Jianxi asked.

"It all depends on whom she marries in the future. To be honest, not long ago our Abao almost got married off, but the boy’s parents disapproved, looking down on us as country folks," Nan Feng said with a bitter smile.

"What? They looked down on you?" Lu Jianxi scoffed habitually, "Who is Abao? She is the daughter of General Nangong of the Dajin dynasty, the daughter of the crown prince of Dazhou. Even if her father stops being a general or a prince, her mother is still the wealthy owner of Spikenard Square. If he knew about Abao’s identity, he’d probably be on his knees licking our shoes."

Nan Feng chuckled, "That’s all in the past now. The most capable thing our family has done recently is to get involved with the Dragon Tooth Gang. Look, the gang leader has even come to our house as a guest."

"Haha..."

While the two women were chatting, Ye Ge and Long San were not idle either.

After Xia Dabao finished tidying up, she placed the tea set by the table so that Ye Ge could make tea.

Long San watched Xia Dabao’s skilled tea-making motions and couldn’t help but ask, "Xiaobao, just like your mother, you’re very capable, aren’t you? In the blink of an eye, you’ve tidied up the place so neatly and without a sign of tiredness!"

Xia Dabao couldn’t resist a compliment and almost floated off the ground, "Uncle Long San, my parents often praise me for being capable too. And it’s not just this that I’m good at. My best skill is hunting rabbits in the mountains. If you like eating rabbit meat, I’ll go up the mountain tomorrow and catch a couple for you."

Ye Ge then laughed, "Better not go. If you go hunting in the mountains tomorrow, who will clean the table at home? Besides, Uncle Long San’s house is full of rare and exotic foods every day. He won’t be interested in your rabbits."

"What are you talking about? At the end of the day, you just want to trick Abao into staying home and helping with the chores," Long San said to Ye Ge with a smile.

After listening, Xia Dabao also supported Long San’s remark, "Exactly! When it comes to who is the biggest child exploiter in Peach Blossom Village, it’s our parents. Axian, Axian, don’t you agree?"

Axian was still teaching Butler Yan how to feed the dogs. As soon as Xia Dabao called out, he naturally responded, "Yes!"

This sent Long San into a hearty laughter, "I see, you are all exploiting each other, hahaha..."

...

As Nan Feng and Lu Jianxi were chatting leisurely, and Ye Ge was also having a casual conversation with Long San, Xia Dabao brought out a small table to play the game of Landlord with Long Aixi and Axian. Butler Yan had already gotten acquainted with Axian and sat down to watch him play cards. In doing so, he started to get the hang of the game and soon began to help Axian with his plays. Little Grass, knowing that the guests who had come were important, stopped barking and just wagged its tail as it wandered around.

The whole place was filled with joy and harmony.

Looking over at Nan Feng’s group and then at Xia Dabao’s, Ye Ge couldn’t help but sigh, "These past ten or so years, neither long nor short, seem to have passed in the blink of an eye, and fortunately everyone is well."

Long San drank the tea Xia Dabao had brewed. He was fond of tea and this particular brew was something he had never tasted before. It was probably a tea unique to the area or perhaps a wild harvest from the mountains, fresh and sweet, and just the thing to cut through the greasiness of the meal.
