Nan Feng chuckled and asked, “If you marry a ship captain, you’ll have food, clothes, and support.

But if you beco a servant in my house, you’ll have to do as I say.

So, which option do you think is better?”

Xiaoqing pondered for a mont, then answered, “Honestly, I wouldn’t mind being a servant.

After all, I can work hard and can tolerate being scolded.

However, the idea of calling soone old enough to be my father ‘my lord’ makes want to vomit.

Disgusting.”

Xiaoqing’s response amused everyone present.

The Butler added to Nan Feng, “This girl does work hard.

She’s capable of doing the work of two people.

Her voice might be a little coarse and her approach a bit hasty, but she’s pretty clever.

It all depends if Miss Nan can handle her.”

Nan Feng smiled, “Alright, she’s the one then.

Co with .”

…

Nan Feng and Ye Ge returned first to the Nan Mansion, while Xiaoqing was given Feng Gu’s old room.

They planned to travel by the ship to the Provincial City the next morning.

That night, snuggled up to Ye Ge, Nan Feng asked, “How do you know Zhuang Xiang was a good official?

He got his head chopped off.”

“Fengfeng, you wouldn’t understand the bureaucratic intricacies,” he replied.

“Oh?

So you’re an expert now, are you?”

“Not exactly,” Ye Ge hugged her tighter, “However, officials are supposed to be public servants.

If the people think he’s a good official, then he is a good official.

If they say he’s not, then he’s not.”

Seeing Nan Feng’s puzzled expression, Ye Ge added, “Many years ago, I t Zhuang Xiang.

I was impressed by his manner of speaking and overall deanour.

His temperant was similar to Xiaodie’s – stubborn and headstrong.

Recently, I heard from Master Song that Zhuang Xiang was beheaded for defying powerful court figures.

And it struck that if soone like Zhuang Xiang serves a wise ruler, he’s a blessing for the commoners.

But if he serves a foolish ruler, it’s his own tragedy.”

In the darkness, Nan Feng asked idly, “Did your life as a guard provide an opportunity to et Zhuang Xiang?”

“Running around from place to place as I used to do naturally led to so opportunities.”

Afterwards, Ye Ge moved closer toward Nan Feng.

“It’s been a while since I’ve eaten at,” he said.

Nan Feng dodged, “You rascal!”

“According to my friends, there cos a ti when ladies start to like the rascals…”

“Just how much have your friends taught you?”

“They also say that ladies always say the opposite of what they an.

If they call you a rascal, they actually like you.”

“…”

Nan Feng finally got a servant, given as a gift from Long San.

It didn’t cost her a di, no wages to speak of, and she only had to provide food and shelter.

Moreover, this Xiaoqing was extraordinarily hardworking, never idle for too long.

However, she seed to be lacking a little in… insight.

For instance, when Nan Feng and Ye Ge were sailing, Nan Feng had confessed that she had a fear of boats and couldn’t go to the deck, needing to stay inside the cabin.

Usually, Nan Feng was quite strong, but she appeared frail when it ca to sailing, making Ye Ge feel the need to offer extra support, holding her in his arms.

But Xiaoqing, constantly asked, “Miss, would you like to fetch so water for you?

You look a little scared.”

Nan Feng shook her head, indicating she didn’t need it.

“Miss, are you cold?

Do you need another layer of clothing?”

“No need!” Nan Fram claid, continuing to nestle into Ye Ge’s embrace.

“Miss…”

“Xiaoqing,” Nan Feng finally had to remind her, “if you have nothing to do, just stand on the deck.”

“The deck, huh…” Xiaoqing responded, “But what if you give a command and I don’t hear it?”

“You don’t need to hear it; I will call you when we dock,” Nan Feng thought to herself, if she doesn’t go up there, I might just leave her on the boat.

“Oh, okay.

Just be sure to call if you need anything, Miss,” after finishing, Xiaoqing looked at Ye Ge, “I’ll leave Miss in your care then.”

Xiaoqing finally went up to the deck.

Nan Feng leaned on Ye Ge’s shoulder again, but it seed as if… she didn’t harbour fear anymore.

That was all thanks to Xiaoqing’s commotion.
