Shen Qiuhua nodded and said, “All right, let’s eat first.”

When the family finished setting the table, Su Fengmao and Luo Jin’an returned. Su Fengmao put down his basket and blew into his hands, saying, “Phew, it’s frigid out there. I didn’t expect it to snow so heavily.”

Su Fengmao took two towels and gave one to Luo Jin’an. “Here, wipe the snow off your head and clothes.”

“Thank you, Father-in-law,” Luo Jin’an said, taking the towel.

“You’re too polite, Jin’an.” Su Fengmao was pleased that his son-in-law would support Su Binglan in whatever she did. Although Luo Jin’an did not talk much, he was diligent and helped around the house.

Su Wenzhe happily said, “You two are finally home. We just finished cooking and setting the table. Come on, let’s eat.”

“Okay, we’ll wash our hands first.”

Meanwhile, Ye Feiran looked at Su Fengmao in surprise. Su Wenwu was attentive and noticed everything about Ye Feiran. He was concerned she would feel uncomfortable.

“That’s my father. What’s wrong?”

Su Binglan looked at Su Wenwu and Ye Feiran. She noticed Ye Feiran’s thoughtful expression and asked, “Feiran, do you recognize my father from somewhere?”

Ye Feiran shook her head and said, “l don’t know. It’s just… I think he looks familiar. It seems…

Shen Qiuhua became wide-eyed as her heart pounded, saying, “It seems what?”

Even the Su brothers could tell something was amiss with their mother’s reaction. Shen Qiuhua was just smiling just now but suddenly turned thoughtful.

Ye Feiran did not want Shen Qiuhua to misunderstand her, so she said, “There’s a portrait of a young man in my father’s study. My father said the young man had saved him and my mother. I don’t know the young man’s name, but he looks like Uncle Fengmao.”

Although it was only a portrait, it was a highly realistic one. Su Fengmao looked young for his age, so he still resembled the young man in the portrait. Ye Feiran felt it was bizarre, especially since her father mentioned the young man’s exceptional martial arts skills.

‘But that young man doesn’t look like he came from a village. 1 remember Wenvvu saying his father was born and raised in the countryside.’

Ye Feiran was puzzled and shocked because she thought Su Fengmao looked familiar. Although Shen Qiuhua reacted strangely to it, Ye Feiran did not want the others to misunderstand her.

Everyone sighed in relief when they heard Ye Feiran’s words. After all, she could not have known Su Fengmao since he was always in Su Teng Village—or so the Su brothers thought.

Meanwhile, Shen Qiuhua felt Su Fengmao’s forgotten memories would be the key to this. Otherwise, he would not be able to save Ye Feiran’s parents. Moreover, the Ye family was from the South.

‘Did Fengmao somehow end up in the South after the flood? He can’t recall those memories, so it’s pointless for me to speculate. I should wait until nighttime before asking Binglan if she knows anything.’

Shen Qiuhua realized it was no ordinary matter, so she said nothing.

However, Su Fengmao was stunned because he knew he had lost a few years of his memories. He said, “l don’t remember saving anyone.”

He told the truth because of his lost memories, so Ye Feiran did not overthink it. Then, Su Binglan observed her parents’ and Ye Feiran’s expressions, falling into deep thought.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Shen Qiuhua said smilingly, “All right, let’s eat. The glutinous rice balls and tangyuan are getting cold.”

Soon after, everyone forgot about the mysterious topic and sat down together for dinner. Su Fengmao happily said, “It’s great to eat a hot meal as soon as I get home.”

Su Wenwu added, “Feiran got you and Jin’an gifts.”

Shen Qiuhua said, ‘1 1 kept them aside for you two. She also gifted us prawns, so you can see her thoughtfulness.”

Su Fengmao was stunned. “Prawns?”

“What do you mean?” Shen Qiuhua playfully scolded, “You’ve eaten prawn dumplings before, you old man. Have you forgotten?”

Su Fengmao raised his brows. “Now that you mention it, I do remember having pravvn dumplings. Thank you so much, Feiran.”

“You’re welcome, Uncle Fengmao. I didn’t know what to bring and was worried your family wouldn’t like the things I brought. I was so nervous to meet everyone. Still, I didn’t expect Binglan to use prawns in dumplings. I can bring you more prawns if you like them.”

Su Fengmao waved. “There’s no need. We’re happy enough that you visited us.

You’re Wenwu’s sworn brother, so we consider you family. Don’t be so formal,

He was forthright and hospitable. Of course, he knew his limits and treated his people and outsiders differently.

Shen Qiuhua looked at Su Wenwu and urged, “What are you waiting for? Get

Feiran a pair of chopsticks.”

“Oh, right.” Su Wenwu passed a pair of chopsticks and a spoon to Ye Feiran. Then. he brought a small bowl and poured water for her.

“Try the food.” Shen Qiuhua smiled.

Ye Feiran ate a piece of glutinous rice, and her eyes lit up. She exclaimed, “Wow, it’s delicious! What’s the filling? It’s different from the ones I usually eat.”

Su Wenwu explained, “The one you ate has red bean filling. There are other fillings, too, so you can try them later.”

Ye Feiran nodded at Su Wenwu and said softly, “Try one, Wenwu.”

“All right.”

Su Wenzhe said, had the red bean one, too. It’s much better than the ones I bought elsewhere. It’s sweet but not greasy.”

Liu Yinyin agreed. Still, she wondered why it tasted better than the ones she bought, even though the cooking method was relatively straightforward.

“Indeed, it’s delicious,” Su Wenxiu was praiseful.

The family was happy to eat as much of the glutinous rice balls as they wanted. Su Binglan said, “Save some space in your stomachs. I’ll be making garlic vermicelli prawns soon..”
