Chapter 146: Chapter 148: Chatting_1

Nan Feng worried there wouldn’t be enough bowls, so she borrowed all the bowls from Uncle Lan’s and Aunt Lan’s house. She also brought out all the old bowls from before and then began distributing the roast pork one by one.

"I smelled this delicious scent while in the fields, it’s so tantalizing. Now I finally get to eat it."

"Wow, it’s surprisingly fragrant and even has a sweet taste. This is my first time eating such delicious roast pork."

"Why is our Feng so capable, she knows how to hunt and roast meat."

"Did you learn from Ye Ge? True, a good teacher produces a good student. Ye Ge, when will you teach me hunting too?"

Over there, Ye Ge, was eating his roast meat. Upon hearing the call for him to teach hunting, he replied almost instinctively, "You need to first practice running."

"Why?"

Ye Ge didn’t answer and continued to enjoy his meat.

Sima’s Sister-In-Law replied instead, "You need to run fast to avoid being chased and bit by boars."

The courtyard erupted into laughter once more.

The person who had asked was nibbling on some roasted meat and said, "So that’s what Ye Ge meant. What’s that saying again? Silently and discreetly, it will give you a shock. That’s just like Ye Ge, he doesn’t talk much but when he does, he sure gives a jolt."

Nan Feng saw Ye Ge appear to chuckle.

After having the roast pork, Nan Feng then invited everyone to have soup and vegetables.

As there weren’t enough stools, everyone just casually found a spot in the courtyard to sit down on their buttocks.

Since everyone had just come in from the fields, everyone was covered in mud so no one cared about getting dirty. There wasn’t anything dirtier than the field mud anyway.

A pot of soup, two pots of rice, a stir-fried rabbit, a cabbage stir-fried with dried fish, very quickly all were eaten up by the crowd.

It’s rare to gather so many people together. Hence, after the meal, no one wanted to leave quickly as they sat in the courtyard chatting, patting their round tummies.

The sky had turned completely dark, but the moon shone brightly. Nan Feng had added more fuel to the earlier pile of coals, so the courtyard was still brightly lit.

It was like sitting under a tree in summer to cool off. Everyone chatted about everything - talk of the current war, talk of the happenings in each household, anecdotes from the nearby village, and some brave souls even told some ghost stories:

"Did you hear? A guy from Dalian Village died not long ago. He was buried for two days. Then his wife went to pay respects at the grave and heard a voice from below, as though her husband was calling out to her. She got scared and ran away. But later, she felt something was off so she called a few bold guys to go with her. The voice was still there so they dug up the grave. Guess what happened?"

Someone asked, "What happened?"

The brave one cleared his teeth and said, "Her husband actually came back to life. Isn’t it strange?"

Those who were timid shrieked, "Is it real? Don’t end up scaring yourself to death while frightening us."

"I went to my relative’s house in Dalian Village yesterday. My relative personally told me. How could it be fake?"

"..."

Nan Feng found such a bustling scene enjoyable and felt quite happy inside.

While she didn’t engage much in the gossip, she and Aqiu went about collecting plates and bowls. When the water basin ran out of water, she decided to wash the dishes from Aunt Lan’s house first, leaving the dishes from her own house to be washed the next day.

It seems that when she has the time, she should get someone to help dig a well; that way, she wouldn’t have to constantly carry water from the river.

...

The crowd gradually dispersed, and at some point, Ye Ge also left.

After Nan Feng took a bath, she hung her bath towel outside the courtyard. Just as she was about to enter her room, Nan Quanyou stopped her.

"Dad, is there something you need?" asked Nan Feng.
