Chapter 153: Spending the Night at a Farmer’s House



Du Ruhui didn't want to tell Chai Shijing about the past. "I know you're curious, but it's better if you don't know. If you don't know, you'll be more true to yourself. If you know, it will be easier to reveal your true colors."

The two are more like master and apprentice than father and son. Over the years, Du Ruhui has helped Chai Shijing a lot, and Chai Shijing also trusts Du Ruhui. "Then do as you say, teacher, and try this tea again."

Du Ruhui looked at the purple clay teapot in Chai Shijing's hand with some envy, "The tea brewed with this teapot tastes exceptionally good. Can you give me one later?"

Chai Shijing had a biological father, and his biological father was the emperor. It was unreasonable for him to give a good teapot to Du Ruhui but not to his biological father, so he never asked Kang Yueran for a purple clay teapot again.

"Okay! Wait for Yueran to come back!"

"Wait until she comes to the capital again, and see if I can find a chance to meet her." He was very curious about Kang Yueran.

Thinking of Kang Yueran, Chai Shijing smiled sweetly. "Okay!"

The capital city is bustling, and Kang Yueran's place is also bustling.

When she was passing by a mountain, she saw a wolf chasing a little boy. The wolf king stepped forward to stop the wolf and saved the little boy.

When they were about to send the little boy home, his relatives brought the villagers to the mountain to look for him. When they saw so many wolves, the villagers were so scared that their legs went weak and they could not walk.

Kang Yueran quickly said, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. The wolves won't hurt you."

The little boy threw himself into his father's arms, "Dad, it was that sister's wolf who saved me!"

Kang Yueran said to the wolf king, "It's getting dark. We'll spend the night on this mountain. Take them to dinner."

Only after the Wolf King and the White Tiger took the wolf pack away did the villagers recover.

The boy's father, Feng Erquan, was standing far away. He knelt down and kowtowed to Kang Yueran, "Thank you, young lady, for saving my son."

Kang Yueran took a few steps closer and said, "Get up. I'm just passing by with the wolves. We'll leave early tomorrow morning. Don't worry, they're only catching animals to eat in the mountains and will never come down to disturb you."

Feng Lizheng asked, "Why is the girl with the wolf?"

"I'm going to send them to Yuezhou. I also live in the mountains. We'll leave early tomorrow morning. Don't worry!"

Feng Lizheng hesitated for a while, then finally said, "Girl, why don't you come back to the village with us and stay for one night? It's not safe for a girl like you to live in the mountains."

"I have so many wolves. Who would dare to hurt me?"

Feng Erquan said, "Miss, you don't know that there are many snakes, insects, rats and mosquitoes on this Daping Mountain. It is indeed not safe to stay overnight."

Snakes? That's right, there are more snakes in the south. Kang Yueran couldn't help but feel a chill. "Thank you for your kindness. I have wolves, so I'm not afraid." Fortunately, she had space.

The little boy came over and took Kang Yueran's hand, "Sister, live in my house. I have a sister at home too."

He was about the same age as Kang Yuanhao. Kang Yueran touched his dirty little face and said, "Okay, I also have a brother who is about the same age as you."

Li Zheng Feng said: "Then let's go quickly!"

"Wait a moment!"

You can't go to a villager's house empty-handed, so Kang Yueran said to Feng Lizheng, "Wait for me at the foot of the mountain first. I'll go hunting wild boars and come down to find you. Ask the villagers to boil some water. I'll treat you to meat tonight!"

Unexpectedly, they still had meat to eat, and the villagers went down the mountain happily.

Kang Yueran shouted into the distance, "White Tiger!"

A moment later, the white tiger came running from a distance. "Master, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just asked you to stay with me!" Kang Yueran is afraid of snakes!

She followed the white tiger into the mountains. Just then, the wolf king led several wolves to hunt a wild boar. Just as they were about to bite it, she quickly stopped them, "Don't move! I've requisitioned this wild boar!"

Now that they had the wild boar, Kang Yueran said, "I'm going to stay in the village tonight. White Tiger and Wolf King, you two take good care of the wolf pack.

The villagers said there were many snakes and insects on the mountain, and asked everyone to be careful, gather together and rest early after eating, and not to run around.

She took out some seasonings from the space, tied the wild boar with a rope, and dragged it down the mountain.

Feng Erquan is the second son of Feng Lizheng. When the wild boar was brought to his doorstep, Feng Erquan asked Feng Wang, a hunter in the village, to kill the boar.

There are more than 30 households in Luping Village. The news that there will be meat to eat in the evening spread quickly in the village, and the villagers came to line up to get the meat.

Kang Yueran gave a packet of seasoning to Feng Lizheng's wife, Mei, and asked her to put it in the pot when cooking meat.

Mei nodded in agreement and turned to ask Li Zheng Feng, "Miss Kang gave me this and told me to put it in the pot where the meat is being cooked. Do you think I can put it in? Will it be poisonous?"

Feng Lizheng was very relieved. "If I tell you to let her go, just let her go. Her pack of wolves is larger than the people in our village. If she wants to harm us, why would she poison us?"

"That's right! How dare she, a delicate little girl, live with a wolf?"

Feng Lizheng whispered, "Why are you so nosy? Go and cook!"

Feng Erquan handed Kang Yueran two halves of fresh sugarcane and said, "Farmers don't have much to eat at home. This sugarcane is almost grown, so I cut down two. Miss Kang, try some, they're sweet!"

Kang Yueran asked in surprise, "There's sugarcane here. Are there many?"

"I've planted quite a bit. In two months, the sugarcane will be fully grown. Merchants in the capital will come to collect it. They say it can be used to make brown sugar."

"Why don't we make our own brown sugar? Are we worried we won't be able to sell it?"

Feng Erquan was stunned for a moment, "That's someone else's secret recipe, how can we make it?"

"I'll teach you!"

Making brown sugar is simple. Peel and chop the sugarcane, squeeze out the juice, and then boil it in a pot. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to low and simmer until thickened. Turn off the heat and pour into a mold. The brown sugar will clump as it cools.
