Chapter 179: Chapter 181: Miss Feng, be careful _1

Those sisters-in-law, who had previously teamed up against Wild Brother, now seemed even more united. They helped and cared for each other every day, like real sisters.

When Nan Feng walked over, those women stopped talking. They all looked at her provocatively, with smug smiles on their faces.

Nan Feng couldn’t bother with them.

Perhaps seeing that they couldn’t provoke Nan Feng, the women started to taunt her. Wang Family’s woman said, "Does it feel bad to be alone now that your lover is gone?"

"It sure must be hard! In this vast world, without a place to shelter from wind and rain, won’t you starve out there?"

"How could she starve? She can break a water tank with her bare hands. She could do the same out there and earn money by performing on the streets."

"..."

Nan Feng tightly gripped the smooth pole in her hand.

At that moment, she kind of wanted to commit murder.

But no sooner had the thought arisen than she began to despise herself.

Why bother with these illiterate women!

So, she went straight into her vegetable field.

...

Nan Feng watered the plants and picked a large bundle of vegetables to bring back.

Maybe because she carried too many vegetables, and had to hold the pole in her other hand, a small bundle of vegetables was about to fall as she walked.

Just as she was about to bend down to pick them up, more vegetables were about to fall.

Suddenly, someone at the side reached out and caught the vegetables for her.

Actually, Nan Feng knew there was someone beside her, but she was so absent-minded that she didn’t notice who it was. Anyway, she didn’t feel like small-talking with anyone.

She resented the villagers over what happened to Wild Brother. Why didn’t anyone speak up for him when he was in trouble, despite all the help he had given them?

Nan Feng heard a gentle voice: "Be careful, Feng girl!"

Nan Feng turned her head and saw Liu Chang.

She never had a good impression of Liu Chang and had no intention of distancing herself; so she just placed her water bucket, and without uttering a word, threw all the vegetables into the bucket, picked it up, and quickly left.

Liu Chang watched Nan Feng’s retreating figure. He didn’t dare pursue her; he could only watch as she disappeared around the bend.

...

That day, Mo Wenxuan returned from the county.

He was working as a substitute teacher in a private school in the county, and he had two days off each month. He would bring home lots of food every time he returned.

Liu Chang and Tie Dan marked the days, knowing that at the end of each month, they would wait at the entrance of the village for Mo Wenxuan. They were childhood friends with Mo Wenxuan, and they wanted to "ambush" him for the food he brought back before his cousins ate everything.

Seeing Mo Wenxuan returning from afar, Liu Chang and Tie Dan hurried over to meet him.

"Finally, you’re back. Look at you all dressed up, just like a city dweller. Liu Chang and I still look like country bumpkins," Tie Dan said, throwing his arm around Mo Wenxuan’s shoulder.

Mo Wenxuan pulled out the stuff from his bag, there were dozens of tanghulus (candied fruits). As he distributed them, he said, "Didn’t I urge you guys to study hard? Who told you to play instead of listening? If you had studied well, wouldn’t you be teaching at the county by now?"

Tie Dan responded, "Please, only two or three scholars emerge from a town. I don’t have that kind of ability. My dad has already given his orders; once the early rice is harvested, I’m to take over his work."

"Oh, selling pork?"

"Look down on selling pork? Without us selling pork, where would you get your pork?"

"..."

Tie Dan and Mo Wenxuan joked around while Liu Chang mostly stayed quiet.
