Chapter 264: Chapter 265: Not Interested in Her (Second Update)_1

Nan Quanyou felt that it was a fair exchange - Lin Qiaoyun helped him wash the pots and rinse the rice, he gave them steamed buns to eat, and talked to Fuge about Da Ping Village, essentially helping to watch her child.

But when Lin Qiaoyun saw how Fuge was relying on Nan Quanyou, a blush crept onto her face, and she decided to help Nan Quanyou start the fire as well.

"Brother Quanyou, please watch the fire. Once the porridge starts to boil, put out the firewood. Let it simmer for about 15 minutes," Lin Qiaoyun instructed.

"Alright then, thank you. You should hurry off to work, Fuge is in capable hands with me here."

"Alright, I’ll get going. Please take care of Fuge," Lin Qiaoyun said, slightly embarrassed.

"No worries at all, go ahead," Nan Quanyou replied.

Meanwhile, Bu Rong’s wife woke up and was washing her face in the yard. Seeing the back-and-forth between Lin Qiaoyun and Nan Quanyou, she couldn’t help but chuckle. After Lin Qiaoyun left, she remarked to Nan Quanyou: "Brother Quanyou, why is Qiaoyun cooking for you every day?"

Nan Quanyou explained, "My leg hasn’t healed yet, and Qiaoyun empathizes with me. Also, since her Fuge usually doesn’t have anyone to look after him at home, I help out. We are all living in the same courtyard, we help each other out."

Bu Rong’s wife laughed again: "You see her as a neighbor, but what if she has feelings for you? You’ve lost your wife, and she’s a widow; isn’t it a perfect match?"

Nan Quanyou rebuked sternly: "No, no, no, sister-in-law Bu, don’t talk nonsense. My daughter is already grown, I’m not thinking about these things. And please do not mention this again, to avoid creating awkwardness the next time I see Qiaoyun."

Bu Rong’s wife wondered, "So, you don’t have feelings for Qiaoyun?"

"Of course not, it’s just neighbors helping each other. Please, stop talking nonsense, or my daughter will scold me if she hears you," said Nan Quanyou as he took Fuge inside the house.

Nan Feng finally got a good night’s sleep and woke up feeling refreshed. Seeing the white porridge made by Nan Quanyou, she ate it with some salted rice and a sesame seed cake, feeling comfortable from the inside out.

After the meal, she heated some water for a bath, changed into clean clothes, and brushed her hair.

While she was washing clothes by the well, she saw Nan Quanyou and Fuge playing in the yard with small stones, all about the same size and likely from the river - pebbles. They had a few ways of playing with the stones, either tossing them together catching one and leaving the remaining four, or spreading dozens put together, consuming three at a time, then four, then five, and in the end, seeing who could finish them all.

Watching Nan Quanyou and Fuge having fun, Nan Feng cracked a small smile.

Everyone needs company, and having a little brother to keep him company wasn’t a bad thing.

After hanging the laundry to dry, Nan Feng went to Spikenard Square. As she passed a corner, she saw someone selling watermelons and chose two big ones. One she took back to the courtyard to share with Feng Gu, and the other she would bring to Brother Ye after closing the shop.

She wanted to buy one for Nan Quanyou too, but she couldn’t carry anymore, so she reluctantly dropped the idea.

The shop was bustling that day. Feng Gu hadn’t been working there long and wasn’t experienced enough to deal with all the queries from customers.

The young ladies asked difficult questions: "Miss, I heard that the products in your shop are very effective. Can they make me beautiful?"

Feng Gu: "Well..."

"Miss, I have so many pimples on my face. Can your products help get rid of them? Your shop always talks about ’baby skin’, does that mean if I use your products, I will have skin like a baby?"

Feng Gu: "Well..."
