Chapter 476: Chapter 478: Might Not Be Own Born_1

"Ah, that’s good then, you had someone to celebrate Little Year with."

People in the South attach great importance to Little Year. They often say ’precious is Little Year eve’, meaning the eve of Little Year is more important than Lunar New Year’s Eve itself.

Long San chuckled a bit, "My two elder sisters came in the afternoon and brought some cured meat. Overall, it was quite nice."

"What about..." Nan Feng thought of Xue Ling.

He remembered Xue Ling once saying in Wanjing County that she would sneak back to see Long San during festivals. So Nan Feng asked, "Did anyone other than your sisters come to see you?"

"There wasn’t anybody else. I saw those who I needed to and those who I shouldn’t’ve.. I had no need to see them," said Long San.

He probably meant Xue Ling by the ones he ’shouldn’t’ve seen’.

As Ye Ge raised his teacup, "Since all that needed to be seen are seen, let’s toast with tea instead of wine. Let’s drink."

Nan Feng also raised his glass, "Happy Little Year."

"Happy Little Year," Long San also held up his glass, his eyes relaxing into a hearty laugh.

They didn’t stay for long at Long San’s place. The three of them chatted a bit about recent events in the county, the war up north, and so on. Later, when the butler, Yan, came to remind Long San to rest, he self-deprecatingly said, "Look at the state I’m in, I can’t even make the most of these joyful times. Still, I appreciate you guys taking your time to visit this sickly old man."

"Please don’t say that, Mr. Long. With proper care, your health will surely improve," Nan Feng comforted him.

"I hope so, as Lady Nan says," Long San finished his sentence, stood up slowly, and bid his farewells to Ye Ge and Nan Feng.

...

After leaving Long San’s house, Nan Feng and Ye Ge strolled home hand in hand.

"Ye Ge, have you ever seen snow?" asked Nan Feng.

"Of course, when it’s snowing heavily, you can make snowmen and have snowball fights in the snow. You can see a vast expanse of white snow, but you have to dress warmly and wear waterproof shoes," Ye Ge replied.

After considering it for a moment, Ye Ge then asked Nan Feng, "Has anyone mentioned snow to you?"

There has never been snow in Ping County, so Ye Ge concluded that Nan Feng had never seen it before.

"Miss Song mentioned it to me," said Nan Feng. "Once when I was admiring plum blossoms, she told me that the plum blossoms in the garden are not pretty, and that the best ones are in the North. She said that she used to live in the North."

"Mr. Song was an official in the capital, and it snows there," Ye Ge said. "So, it’s normal for Miss Song to have seen snow."

Ye Ge then asked Nan Feng, "Did she tell you anything else?"

"Not really," Nan Feng, not wanting to discuss others, asked Ye Ge, "What about your childhood? Who did you make snowmen and have snowball fights with?"

"With Nini and some... neighborhood children," Ye Ge said. "But the days of playing in the snow were actually quite rare. Once I got older, I was sent to special training in a particular place."

Nan Feng asked, "Was it a very special place where, apart from eating and sleeping, the rest of the time was spent training?"

"Yes, from the age of seven until sixteen!" Ye Ge replied.

Nan Feng suddenly stopped, then just stood on the road in a daze.

Seeing Nan Feng standing still, Ye Ge asked, "What’s wrong, Fengfeng?"

Nan Feng suddenly felt that Ye Ge’s experiences were especially similar to her past life.

Both were sent to a special place for training from a young age.

Nan Feng shook her head and continued asking Ye Ge, "Your parents were so heartless. How could they not let you be a normal child and grow up in an ordinary way?"

Nan Feng felt that Ye Ge is probably not his parent’s biological son, but kept the thought to herself.
