Jleb!
"It hit!" Sheng Qi Rou happily ran to the rabbit she hunted and picked it up. The one arrow she shot managed to kill the rabbit easily.
Feng Ao Si watched Sheng Qi Rou action and nodded. "You're good."
"Thank you." Sheng Qi Rou smiled. "My brother will never let me go up to the mountain if I didn't learn how to use bow and arrow."
In terms of physical strength, Sheng Qi Rou would have difficulties to match with men, especially those who were more skilled than her. Thus, she had to learn some self defense to protect herself when her older brother was away on the army.
"That's good." Feng Ao Si nodded. "Let's go back and skin the meat. We'll be able to eat good meal again today."
"Yeah." Sheng Qi Rou smiled happily.
The two of them went down the mountain and this time, Feng Ao Si helped to skin the rabbit. When he was on the frontline, there was time when he also hunted additional ration by himself, so he was already used with this practice.
Before long, the rabbit was skinned and handed to Sheng Qi Rou to process.
At the back, Feng Ao Kuai watched Feng Ao Si and felt that his brother had completely sold himself.
"I think that Ao Si had agreed with this matter?" Sheng Shan Lang weakly asked.
Feng Ao Kuai glanced at Sheng Shan Lang, scaring the other party until he shivered. However, Feng Ao Kuai had no interest in 'torturing' Sheng Shan Lang more. "Yeah, it's good enough."
Sheng Shan Lang scrutinized Feng Ao Kuai's expression and heaved a sigh of relief.
It seemed that he would be able to keep his life.
That was good.
The past few days had already scared Sheng Shan Lang greatly. He finally understood why the soldiers called Feng Ao Kuai as great demon when he was interrogating the prisoners.
It was indeed very scary to be subjected under his questioning.
In the afternoon, Nan Luo came to Feng Ao Kuai. "I have to return earlier. The next place for my assignment is deep in the areas around Yi City. I wouldn't have enough time to go back if I stay longer here."
"You don't want to watch any longer?" Feng Ao Kuai arched his eyebrows.
"What is there to watch?" Nan Luo laughed. "As long as Brother Si is happy, I don't really care about his future wife. Anyway, you have already seen that the Sheng Family is not here just for Brother Si's money or position. They should be good enough."
"Yeah."
Feng Ao Si was by no means poor. As the first young master in the Feng Family and also a 3000 men commander, his wealth was already more than enough for him to live a comfortable life for the rest of his life.
And such a stupid Feng Ao Si was naturally the target of many people to fool.
Of course, Dai's presence had already allowed Feng Ao Si to fend most of them. Only this Sheng Shan Lang was hard to defend against.
"Ok, I'm going back. You should take care." Nan Luo waved his hand.
Feng Ao Kuai nodded and noticed that Nan Hua was staring in his direction. "Did I do something wrong?"
"No." Nan Hua shook her head. "You don't have to worry so much about First Young Commander Feng. He might be a bit stupid in some matters, but he should understand that his marriage is a serious matter and will not just pick a random person."
"I know." Feng Ao Kuai snorted. "But I still have to see and check to know whether his vision was good or not."
Nan Hua said nothing more.
Feng Ao Si might be stupid on daily basis or even more. However, he was also a person who knew very well that it was important for him to select someone good. And behind him, there were still his grandfather, father, and mother who will definitely watch him over before he made his decision.
Thus, Nan Si Qiao's appearance tomorrow should be able to help Feng Ao Si to understand more of his future wife.
Anyway, in this era where marriages were usually conducted without the groom and bride met with each other before the day of their marriage, this treatment was actually pretty good.
Afterwards, they will have a lifetime to know each other better.
…
The next day, Nan Si Qiao arrived and was so excited. She talked about many things with Sheng Shan Lang, Sheng Qi Rou, and also Feng Ao Si. It was to the point that Feng Ao Kuai and Nan Hua didn't even have the chance to enter the house.
From the way it looked like, Nan Si Qiao had no problems with Feng Ao Si marrying a commoner.
Uh wait, a former commoner?
After all, Sheng Shan Lang was a noble after getting several military merits.
"Marrying a woman from a rather ordinary family should be fine. There's no need for the Feng Family to grow into large power either." Feng Ao Kuai thought about his father and sighed. He was sure that when the latter received the letter, he would take a leave to pay a visit to his wife and knew about the peasant woman who attracted his first son better.
He didn't want to take care of this.
"Gege* go?" the young boy looked at his older brother curiously and stretched his two hands. Feng Ao Qian was 6 years this year. He had grown up since the last time they saw him, but he was still relatively young.
"I'm your second brother, Ao Qian." Feng Ao Kuai looked at the young boy and then picked him up. "We shall wait for Eldest Brother to finish his talk, ok?"
Feng Ao Qian blinked his large eyes and then nodded.
As a 6 years old, Feng Ao Qian didn't know much about the world as of yet. After all, he was living a sheltered live with his mother. With her first two children went to the battlefield, she longed to have a child who could accompany her more.
Even though Nan Si Qiao must have already started to educate Feng Ao Qian, he was still given more free time as compared to her first two children.
