Chapter 238: Chapter 239 - Small Gathering (Extra update)_1
The room, usually spacious and empty, suddenly flooded with people, making it feel packed. The girls chatted non-stop around Nan Feng: "Feng, there are so many things for sale in the alley outside, it’s way more convenient in the city than in the village. You can buy anything you want."
"Feng, how much is the rent here? Pretty expensive, right? But the house is really nice, better than our rural ones."
"The houses here are just average, you haven’t seen the massive mansions we passed by. They had stone lions and large lanterns, even doorkeepers."
Of course, the information about the mansions was passed onto them by their local friend, as none of them could read.
Nan Feng imagined their friend surrounded by a group of women firing questions. She thought it was hilarious, but knowing his good nature, he would surely answer them.
After a long chit-chat with Nan Feng, Aqiu and the others finally visited Nan Quanyou. Seeing the change in Nan Quanyou, they were shocked. "Wow, Uncle Nan’s legs are straight now!"
"Right? He used to walk like an eggplant, all twisted. Now he’s as straight as a cucumber."
"Can he walk yet?"
With his fellow villagers visiting, Nan Quanyou was of course delighted and more than willing to respond, "It’s thanks to the proficient medical skills of the city doctor. Now, I can manage to take a few steps. I guess after another month or two of rest, I can return to the village and start farming."
One of the girls asked, "Uncle Nan, you still want to go back to farm? Can’t you just enjoy life here in the city with Nan Feng?"
Nan Quanyou laughed and shook his head, "I have to go back, cities are too crowded for me. Moreover, it’s Feng doing business, there’s not much I can help with, especially not understanding her skincare products. I’m better off back in the village. As Feng often says, ’one must have dreams’, my dream is to farm in the village all my life and provide Feng with homegrown rice and peanuts."
Nan Feng had never heard Nan Quanyou express himself like this before. She always assumed he liked living in the city. So hearing him say this now, she couldn’t help but feel a little sour.
"Dad, do you really like returning to the countryside to farm? Don’t you like living in the city?" Nan Feng asked.
"Absolutely, not only can you farm in the countryside, but there are also many familiar faces. People here aren’t as friendly as those in the countryside. The men from the neighboring households are all out working during the day, and I don’t have anyone to talk to. You are also busy, so life in the village is more comfortable for me."
With so many people around, Nan Feng didn’t want to continue discussing this topic. She decided to put this issue aside for now and talk about it once Nan Quanyou’s legs had recovered.
Then Nan Feng went about preparing dinner for everyone.
The rice was cooked early in the morning, only the stir-fried dishes remained. Nan Feng had bought a chicken to make soup and a three-pound carp, along with a variety of vegetables to entertain the girls with.
There weren’t enough seats for everyone, so Nan Feng borrowed some from the neighbors. To show her gratitude, she gave each household a large bowl of chicken soup. The neighbors were glad to lend their stools, just like it was back in the countryside.
The girls sat in the yard, chatting away while eating their meal. They talked about the village, about how Sima Guangguang had also enrolled in a private school and got more attention from the teacher than Mo Wenxuan. They talked about how Tie Dan and Liu Chang had begun to follow in their father’s footsteps. Liu Chang had started hunting, and Tie Dan had begun learning to butcher pigs. They also talked about Dongdong, who had recently had marriage proposals. She might marry a good-looking, well-off guy from a neighboring village...
Later when the conversation shifted to Mo Wenxuan, one of the girls asked Nan Feng, "We heard that Mo Wenxuan is also in the county. Have you guys run into each other?"
