The old village chief insisted on keeping Feng Xi Er and Xiao Tu Dou for dinner, and also introduced her to the villagers.

“Ms. Feng here is the benefactor of our refugee village, let us toast to her.” The old village chief took out his precious jug of good wine that has been in his collection for a long time, to attend to Feng Xi Er. Most of the villagers were honest and simple-minded, and they were very grateful to Feng Xi Er’s kind intentions to save Chan Zhen and his brother. All of them gathered together to toast her wine.

Feng Xi Er did not reject them. Because she was not good at drinking, she openly downed a cup and stopped drinking after. To celebrate the matter of the plague being resolved, the villagers deliberately made many good dishes. Chan Zhen could not speak, but vigorously took a lot of food for Feng Xi Er. 

The good-natured villagers laughed and said: “It’s all thanks to Ms. Feng that we’re eating such good dishes in a long time.” 

The old village chief also said: “Our place is simple, and there isn’t any good food to attend to Ms. Feng. I hope you don’t mind.” 

Feng Xi Er looked at the wild vegetables, bean sprouts, tofu, and fish soup on the table. These dishes may be considered insignificant to the people of the Tianlong Dynasty, but for those in the refugee village, they are considered a luxury.

“Chan Zhen is my friend, so Old village chief do not have to be so polite in the future.” Feng Xi Er said magnanimously, and also picked food to place in Chan Zhen’s bowl.

After dinner, Feng Xi Er had to rush back. When she was leaving, Feng Xi Er gave all the silver on her to the old village chief. The old village chief absolutely refused to accept it, “We are already unable to repay Ms. Feng for your great kindness, how could we even accept your silver?”

“Take these monies to buy some sows to raise, or raise some livestock. Don’t eat birds any more, and ask the villagers definitely not to eat dead animals. Although Chan Yu’s disease is stable now, it still needs treatment. Everyone still needs to pay attention and watch what they eat. Just accept the money. I’m the lady of a rich family in Tianlong dynasty, and have a lot of money, and am very happy to help. I believe that the village is so united and you all will surely be able to overcome poverty.”

The old village chief wanted to kneel down to Feng Xi Er again, and Feng Xi Er supported him before he knelt down. “I have accepted your thanks. It’s dark and I have to go back now. When I have the chance, I will come back to see you all.” 

Chan Zhen rushed over to hug Feng Xi Er, and wrote on Feng Xi Er’s hand, “May a good person be safe throughout her life”.

Feng Xi Er patted Chan Zhen’s head and said to the old village chief: “Old village chief, please buy a pair of shoes for Chan Zhen, I see that her shoes are all torn.”

Chan Zhen waas moved and her eyes were full of tear. Feng Xi Er patted her on the shoulder: “Chan Zhen, I will come to see you often in the future. I will also try to find a cure for your brother’s illness.”

Chan Zhen nodded.

The old village chief gave a horse to Feng Xi Er. Fortunately, Feng Xi Er learnt horse-riding in modern times, and her horse-riding skills were not bad. The old village chief and Chan Zhen walked Feng Xi Er out of the mountain and watched her leave.

Halfway through their journey back, it started drizzling. In the night, the cold wind blew along with the cold rain. Feng Xi Er found that there was a deserted house in the forest, and so they went inside to keep warm. The two started to chat.

“Miss, you are more and more like a heroine. When did you learn to ride a horse?” Xiao Tu Dou looked at Feng Xi Er with a face full of admiration.

Feng Xi Er nodded with satisfaction, and teased: “I learnt it in my dream.”

The drizzle stopped after a while, and Feng Xi Er went out to lead the horse. Suddenly, she heard the sound of horses galloping in front. There were people. Feng Xi Er shrank behind the big tree. Someone shouted: “Your Highness, please wait for me.”

Your Highness? Is it the crown prince?
