Chapter 150: Melon is poisonous

But those vague figures were like ethereal souls. He can’t reach it, he can’t catch it, he can’t even tell if it was a male or a female. Not to mention, no one ever responds to him.

Every time he woke up, he was so tired and full of sweat. And when he woke up, he couldn’t sleep anymore.

When Hu Feng walked out of his room, he saw the breakfast on the table. The breakfast was consist of white porridge, boiled eggs, spicy and sour shredded potato, and black fungus salad.

There were two small side dishes he had never eaten, so in a glance, he knew Bai Zhi prepared them all.

“What about Zhi’er?” Hu Feng asked Hu Changlin.

Hu Changlin pointed his finger to the outside and smiled: “Meng Daren is here, she just went outside to greet him.”

Hu Feng went to the door and looked outside. He saw Meng Nan and Jin Shiwei standing outside the fence. Behind them, there were two carriages parked.

Two carriages?

Hu Feng’s lips curved into a smile, that girl, Bai Zhi seemed to have succeeded! Then, he turned around and walked towards the backyard. While walking, he said to Hu Changlin: “I will wash my face. If Meng Nan comes in, remember to call me.”

“Meng Daren’s face seems to be in no serious trouble, congratulations!” Bai Zhi saw that wound on his face had all been scarred. Right now, although it still looked ugly, it won’t be long before these scab shells fell off. After that, it would look much better.

Meng Nan pointed at his face: “Although it doesn’t hurt, itch and rot anymore. Will it leave scars on my face?”

Bai Zhi shook her head: “After all the scab shells fall off, it will leave some faint red marks on your face, but it will not get in the way. After a long while, these faint red marks will disappear on their own, and will not leave any scar on your face.”

Fortunately, he met her when the wound has not continued to deteriorate. Otherwise, it will really be difficult to say whether it will leave scars or not.

Hearing Bai Zhi said that it will not leave any scar, Meng Nan was relieved. Then, he pointed his finger into the house and asked: “Have you eaten breakfast?”

Bai Zhi shook her head: “Not yet.”

Meng Nan said with a happy face: “That’s good, I haven’t also, why don’t we eat together?”

Although he asked, he didn’t wait for Bai Zhi to reply. He went to enter the house on his own. Jin Shiwei hurried his footsteps to keep up, he’s afraid that if he was late any minute, the food in the house will be swept away.

Behind the two, Bai Zhi looked helpless: “There is nothing much for breakfast, it is only white porridge and a few side dishes.”

Ever since Meng Nan eaten Bai Zhi’s meal, he couldn’t eat much in their house for these past two days. He thought of coming back to eat. Otherwise, why would he come here in person to send a carriage? There was no need for him to do that.

When Meng Nan entered the house, Hu Feng also just came back from the backyard. The two men looked at each other. And without saying a word, the two men rushed to the table with a speed of lightning.

There were two bowls of white porridge on the table, so the two had each one. Jin Shiwei who was one step late could only stare and hope for Hu Changlin to serve another bowl.

Hu Feng was not happy: “A government official will eat regardless of place?”

Meng Nan smiled and said: “Since I came here, there is no reason to leave with an empty stomach.”

Hu Feng picked up his chopstick and clipped some spicy and sour shredded potato. The spicy and sour shredded potato taste very appetizing. The white porridge also tastes very good. It has the touch of sweetness he has never tasted before. He couldn’t tell how many times this white porridge taste much better.

After Meng Nan tasted a mouthful of spicy and sour shredded potato, he busily asked Bai Zhi: “What is this dish? I seem to have never eaten it.”

Bai Zhi smiled and pointed her finger to the basket of potatoes in the corner of the house: “Oh, this is that.”

“Melon? This is melon?” Meng Nan was surprised.

When Jin Shiwei heard that it was a melon, he quickly stopped Meng Nan’s hand: “Gongzi, I heard melon is poisonous, you can’t eat it.”

  1. 😂So that’s why Hu Feng told Hu Changlin to call him if Meng Nan came in! He was safeguarding his breakfast🤣🤣🤣

    Thanks for the chapter.

  2. Here i thought HF had another reason for saying that Hu Bo need to call him if Meng daren comes in.
    *sigh*
    I should have thought that it is because of the food XD

  3. To late Meng Nan😝!!! You already ate the melon that everyone thought as something poisonous😋!!! Hahahaha🤣😂🤣😂! If you could just time travel here in our time you’ll see how much these melons of yours have been abused by us future generations! Lmao!

  4. This was a fun chapter. With both men racing for breakfast, the good thing is that the magistrate is going to learn about “melon” and its benefits. Melon is not poisonous and the community is going to learn about this with BZ making a lot of money in the process.
