Chapter 267: Chapter 268 Watermelon (1st update)_1
Nan Feng later reconsidered, what if the wild brother doesn’t know the watermelon was from her? So, she spread out the pen and paper on his table, planning to leave him a message.
But Nan Feng suddenly faced a problem. She had never practiced calligraphy before. Although holding a brush was not a problem for her, writing beautifully was hard. Furthermore, even though she can now recognize ancient characters, she struggled to remember the strokes when writing.
For example, the traditional Chinese character for her name, Feng, was it a frame outside and an insect inside?
Never mind, she’d rather not write than make mistakes. So, she just drew a picture. A big watermelon on top, a hunting woman beside the watermelon. But the woman didn’t look realistic enough, so she drew a wild wolf as well, with an arrow stuck in it.
However, the wolf was indistinguishable from a dog. They had the same number of legs, a pointed mouth, and a body.
Once she finished drawing, she assumed wild brother would know she’d been there, right?
...
Nan Feng arrived home before nightfall.
Since Nan Quanyou could not have the watermelon, Nan Feng felt guilty. She bought a tael of pork belly from a pork shop in the alley, planning to cook braised pork that night.
However, as she came back with the pork belly, she saw Nan Quanyou, Fuge, and Lin Qiaoyun eating watermelon in the courtyard. Nan Quanyou was always hospitable and generous. He cut the watermelon into small pieces and invited the neighbors Bu Rong and Bao Dayin’s family to eat.
Seeing Nan Feng return, Nan Quanyou called her over again: "Fengfeng, there are two pieces left for you in the house. Go in and eat."
Nan Feng curiously asked, "Dad, who sent the watermelon?"
"Oh, it was Mo Wenxuan. I don’t know how he found out where we lived. He came not too long ago and left. I initially didn’t want his watermelon, but he refused to take it back, so we just ate it."
Mo Wenxuan again?
Nan Feng put the pork belly on the stove, took out two slices of watermelon, and said while eating, "Dad, I also saw Mo Wenxuan today. He passed by my shop and we chatted. He said he is studying with some renowned teacher now. Anyway, I don’t pay attention to scholarly affairs."
"He went to your shop too? Then, it seems he came to me after visiting you. I guess, feeling lonely in the county, he just disregarded our past grudges. How should I put this? The lad was always arrogant. But him buying something to come see us indicates some remorse. We shouldn’t be too perturbed by past events, let him come if he wants."
Nan Feng spit out watermelon seeds and said, "Dad, are you bought over by a watermelon? Remember, you extremely loathed Mo Wenxuan. He broke off our engagement."
"Good riddance," Nan Quanyou also spit out watermelon seeds, "If he hadn’t, could you have developed a relationship with Wild brother? We should thank him now. Anyway, if he buys watermelon I will eat. But, if he intends to bring up affairs of marriage again, I have two words for him: No way!"
"Dad, how can you be so cunning?" Nan Feng already finished one slice of watermelon, and she is now eating another one enthusiastically.
"What cunning? I just have no one to talk to all day, isn’t it? I’m elated that someone finally came to talk to me."
Nan Feng stopped eating the watermelon and just looked at Nan Quanyou feeling guilty: "Dad, it’s all my fault, I don’t have time for you. Let’s do this, why don’t you accompany me to the shop tomorrow? There is a backyard there where you can rest, and I’ll cart you back home in the evening?"
