Chapter 1623: Chapter 1445: Epilogue
Even now, whenever the Emperor speaks of Yege, he wishes that all ministers would learn from Yege—learn that kind of spirit he showed towards the court.
"Wenxuan, come in and have a seat, don’t just sit outside in the yard. I’ll go get you a glass of water," Nan Feng led Mo Wenxuan inside, her demeanor still as unassuming yet dignified as ever: "I never thought we’d see each other again."
As Mo Wenxuan followed Nan Feng inside, he said, "Yes, after you went to the battlefield, you never came back, which really had me worried. Then later I heard... well, let’s not talk about it. But rest assured, Nan Feng, I’m really just here to see you. I promise I won’t reveal your whereabouts here."
"Just remember that we’re living in seclusion here and we don’t want to be on the run anymore," Nan Feng said.
"..."
Xia Dabao watched as Mo Wenxuan was led into the house and couldn’t help but walk over to Yege, "Dad, do you want me to keep an eye on them inside?"
Yege couldn’t help but chuckle, "Afraid your mother will be kidnapped?"
"I’ve heard that this Mo Wenxuan is a minister. What if Mom can’t resist his temptation?"
"Even if he is a minister, he wouldn’t dare to abduct your mother from here; he wouldn’t be able to leave the village."
"That’s true!" Xia Dabao said with a giggle.
Although Yege didn’t say anything, Xia Dabao still snuck over to the corner to eavesdrop.
They didn’t really talk about much, mostly village matters. Mo Wenxuan said he had only returned to the village once since then and also mentioned that someone named Sima Guang is now an official in the Capital City. He even admitted that he had been too naive as a child.
After listening for a while and finding nothing of interest, Dabao got bored and stopped eavesdropping. Later on, Yege asked her to go and pick some melon seedlings from the field, and she hurried off to do so.
Uncle Mo was going to stay here for dinner.
...
During dinner, Mo Wenxuan was the one doing most of the talking, sharing stories about his life in the Capital City and how his parents were faring.
Then they heard a call from outside, "Uncle Ye, Aunt Nan Feng?"
"Xiaobei is here too? Come in and sit for a while," Nan Feng had already heard from Mo Wenxuan that Tian Xiaobei had come back this time intending to marry Xia Dabao. She felt that whether Dabao agreed to it or not, Xiaobei’s father had always been kind to their family, and since Xiaobei used to visit often, they couldn’t turn him away.
Tian Xiaobei glanced at Xia Dabao, who was completely indifferent, and then he came in.
"Have you eaten yet? If not, sit here and join us," Nan Feng said.
So Tian Xiaobei sat down to eat.
He had been here a few times before and wasn’t shy.
"Axiaobei, where are you staying tonight?" Nan Feng asked.
This time, Xia Dabao finally looked up, "We don’t have any spare rooms at our place. Uncle Mo is staying with us tonight."
Mo Wenxuan, surprised and flattered, quickly spoke up to support Dabao, "Xiaobei had already mentioned when he arrived that he can stay at the village chief’s house."
Knowing that Xia Dabao didn’t welcome him, Tian Xiaobei had no choice but to say to Nan Feng, "Yes, I’ll stay at the village chief’s place tonight. After all, I’ve always stayed there before."
"Did you go see your aunt?" Nan Feng asked.
"I did," Mo Wenxuan said, his gaze still occasionally drifting towards Xia Dabao.
After dinner, Xia Dabao and Axian locked themselves in the room to play, while Nan Feng was doing the dishes, Tian Xiaobei went to help her.
"Aunt Nan Feng, the main reason I came back this time is... I want to marry Dabao. Does she have someone she likes now?" Tian Xiaobei asked.
