Chapter 63: Chapter 63 You should have more friends_1 Chapter 63: Chapter 63 You should have more friends_1 In the courtyard, Nan Feng was sitting on a small stool while Ye Ge continued to chop wood.
He asked Nan Feng while chopping wood, “Did you co here looking for for a reason?”
In her mind, Nan Feng thought if it was in the past, she would have lodramatically said, “Can’t I visit you without a reason?” But this was ancient tis, she couldn’t be too nonchalant.
So she simply said, “It’s mostly about the tug-of-war during the town’s celebration.
Several people asked to persuade you, and I couldn’t refuse, so I ca to run through the motions.
Otherwise, I wouldn’t be able to answer to them.”
Nan Feng couldn’t simply persuade Ye Ge to participate in the ga, that would make her look nosy.
Ye Ge paused for a mont, then said, “You know I’m not fond of hustle and bustle.
I wouldn’t feel comfortable participating.”
Nan Feng said, “I felt the sa way at first, not wanting to participate in singing folk songs.
But now that I’m involved, every day a few ladies and I practice together.
Then, I found out it’s quite fun being part of the excitent.
Maybe it’s because of my hard work, the ladies have started to treat much better.”
Ye Ge thought for a bit, then said, “Well congratulations, you should mingle more with the crowd.
That way you won’t be so lonely, and you won’t have to…spend all your ti following around.
I an, as long as you’re happy, that’s all that matters.”
“What about you?
Don’t you need more friends?” Nan Feng asked.
Ye Ge casually smiled and said, “I don’t need them.”
“Why not?”
Ye Ge, looking at Nan Feng, said, “Never mind.
I will be there to watch your competition.
I hope you will perform well then.”
“…”
Since Nan Feng could not persuade Ye Ge, naturally no one else dared to.
Though, it wasn’t clear who started the rumour that Ye Ge only had eyes for Nan Feng.
Therefore, this matchmaking-like competition was of no interest to Ye Ge.
The rumours escalated, so saying there was a big row between Ye Ge and Nan Feng because of this.
Ye Ge didn’t just refuse to participate himself, but didn’t want Nan Feng to participate either, afraid that she would be snatched away when seen by others.
Nan Feng simply laughed off these rumours.
Ye Ge’s sches were profound, not sothing she could see through.
…
The town’s celebration ca in no ti.
That day, residents from the five villages in Qingshui Town all gathered at a large lawn on the outskirts of the town.
The terrain was flat and accommodated thousands of people.
n, won, old and young all wore their cherished clothes, ready for the annual entertainnt event.
When Nan Feng, Aqiu, and Zhou Dongdong arrived, the place was already bustling with people.
There were those banging on gongs, playing drums, lion dancing, selling candied hawthorn berries, and those scolding children for running around…
It was the first ti Nan Feng saw so many people in this era, and she felt excited inside.
She was also wearing new clothes that day, her hair was tied into big braids following the current fashion in the village.
Her face was lightly touched with make-up.
All the costics were sponsored by Wenxuan’s mother, who said it concerned the reputation of their village and asked each girl to apply so.
The costics covered most of the sores, making Nan Feng look much prettier than usual.
One of the girls joked, “Nan Feng you truly have a good foundation.
If you completely get rid of those sores, you would be the prettiest in the village!”
At this, Zhou Dongdong seed a bit uncomfortable.
Aqiu then scolded the girl, “What nonsense are you talking about?
Can’t a girl be pretty without being the ‘most’ sothing?”
Zhou Dongdong was acknowledged as the prettiest single lady in the village.
Nan Feng brought so copper coins to dispel the awkwardness and said, “Let treat everyone to candied hawthorn berries, one stick each!”
At that, the girls perked up and excitedly took their candied hawthorn berries and looked for a place to sit.
