Chapter 152 Fu Zhewen

Yunxi felt that the town was too quiet today, lacking its usual liveliness.

You know, it's holiday time now, and the children don't have to go to school, so the streets should be very lively.

Yunxi only caught a few glimpses of people occasionally, so it seemed she would have to wait until they reached the pharmacy to ask Zhang Feng what was going on.

Yunxi had never imagined that these people weren't in town and might have gone to the market, so she was a little shocked when she heard Zhang Feng from the pharmacy say that today was market day.

I patted my forehead, feeling that my life was getting more and more chaotic, and I had actually forgotten such an important thing.

Since I finally have a holiday, I should definitely go to the market and buy some things that I'm missing.

Yunxi has never been to the market many times. She either has to go to school or work in the fields. The last time she went to the market, she was probably digging for medicinal herbs in the mountains. It was just such bad luck.

He sold all three sacks of medicinal herbs to Zhang Feng and felt quite accomplished looking at the money in his hand.

At least these were all things I pulled out myself, one blade of grass at a time.

"Zhang Feng, I'm on break during this time and don't have to go to school, so I'll have a lot of free time and might go dig up a lot of medicinal herbs. Can you handle it here?"

Zhang Feng was processing medicinal herbs when he heard this. Without even looking up, he said, "Just send me whatever herbs you have. My family owns more than just this one pharmacy; we have dozens. If we don't use them all here, we can send them elsewhere. Nothing will go to waste, so don't worry."

Yunxi didn’t have much interest in his family’s dozens of shops, but she was just a little envious of how rich his family was!

But when he thought about the cash and gold in his own space, he realized that if he wanted to buy shops, he could buy a dozen or twenty shops at the current prices, and he instantly stopped being envious, because he could afford it too.

"Okay, Zhang Feng, thank you so much. I'll be going now. I have to go to the market. I completely forgot it's market day. My family still has some medicinal herbs, which we'll probably deliver in a couple of days. Goodbye."

Zhang Feng never looked up until Yunxi left, when he looked up to see her off, his eyes fixed on her retreating figure as she walked away.

From the moment Zhang Feng first saw Yunxi, he had a crush on the beautiful girl. As they spent more time together, his feelings for her grew stronger.

But Yunxi had no feelings for him at all; her clear eyes revealed it immediately, unlike him, whose eyes always betrayed his affection for Yunxi.

As expected, her grandfather understood her best. He saw through her little scheme at a glance and immediately arranged a marriage for her, just to put an end to her little thoughts.

The other party was, after all, a girl next door whom he had known since childhood, so Zhang Feng did not refuse his grandfather, or perhaps he did not love Yunxi as much as he thought.

He was easily persuaded by his grandfather's reasoning, his sense of responsibility, and his concern for family tradition.

So when Yunxi came to sell medicinal herbs this time, I felt like I couldn't look her in the eye, and I felt like I didn't love her that much, that I was too shallow.

Deep down, I still love my family responsibilities more.

Perhaps because he had a clearer understanding of himself, he felt a little embarrassed when facing Yunxi, and was even too embarrassed to look up at her, keeping his head down and pretending to be processing herbs.

Zhang Feng felt that he would probably remember Yunxi forever. After all, he had met such a beautiful girl when he was young, who amazed him throughout his youth. It would not be an easy thing to forget her.

Yunxi had no idea what the young master of the pharmacy was thinking. At that moment, she couldn't wait to leave the town and quickly ran towards the market.

We finally managed to get out, and it just so happens to be market day, so we can't miss it.

After traveling for half an hour, we finally arrived at the market.

Perhaps Yunxi arrived too late, and most people had already gone home, which is why there seemed to be fewer people at the market.

When people go to the market, they usually buy what they want and then go home. They never wander around outside. They would rather spend that time working in the fields.

It truly can be described as coming and going in a hurry.

Luck is just that good. After Yunxi entered the market, she was looking around at the stalls, searching for something that interested her, when she spotted Li Xingtang.

Li Xingtang wasn't alone; he was with three companions. They sold game, casually tossing it on the ground for people to see, because someone would like meat.

Looking at it this way, it suddenly becomes clear that Li Xingtang seems quite down-to-earth.

He used to have the air of a rich young master, and even when he helped me work in the fields, he didn't seem like a farmer. But now, squatting there selling his prey, he actually seems quite down-to-earth.

After Yunxi saw Li Xingtang, Li Xingtang probably sensed Yunxi's gaze and looked back in her direction.

Then he gave Yunxi a big smile, and suddenly it felt like a rich young master had turned into a landlord's silly son.

"Yunxi, you've come to the market too! If I had known you were coming, I would have gone to your house to pick you up and we would have come together."

Yunxi noticed the three people next to Li Xingtang exchanging glances and winks. Were they teasing Li Xingtang, or were they teasing her?

"I had completely forgotten that today was market day, so I went to town to sell medicinal herbs. I only came here because the owner of the pharmacy told me it was market day. You don't need to come looking for me. Judging from your appearance, you've had quite a good harvest lately!"

Yunxi was quite happy for him. Although he wasn't at the age where he could start earning money for the family, it was still good that they had the intention to do so.

Hearing Yunxi's praise, Li Xingtang was even happier than if his own father had praised him. He smiled broadly and took the opportunity to introduce his brothers to Yunxi.

"Yunxi, let me introduce you. These are my childhood friends. This is Fu Zhewen. He's not studying in town anymore. He went to work with his father in the military. He's on vacation now and came back to visit me."

Then, turning to the tall, muscular man next to him, Fu Zhewen, who was about 1.9 meters tall, he said, "Zhewen, this is my classmate Yunxi, the top student in the class. Let's get to know each other."

Hello, Yunxi.

Fu Zhewen was quite tactful; he greeted them but didn't say anything more.

Yunxi nodded at him, just to get a general idea.

Although she felt that the name was somewhat mismatched with his physique, the combination of a refined name and a robust build was rather unexpected.

Then Li Xingtang began to introduce the other two people next to Yunxi.
