Nan Feng shook her head: "No."
Aqiu said, "I thought as much. But you surely spend time with Ye Ge from time to time, don't you?"
Nan Feng blushed at the thought of Ye Ge's kisses every time they met. Seeing her reaction, everyone teased her, "Look at her, she's eager to get married."
"Set a date and get married."
"Look, she's blushing. She must be really fond of Ye Ge. But to be fair, ever since Ye Ge's hunchback healed, his stature and aura, goodness, there's no comparison in our village, let alone the whole of Ping County..."
"..."
So they finished their meal with laughter and banter.
After the meal, Nan Feng took them to a nearby bathhouse (originating from the Song Dynasty). It was her first time in a public bathhouse. It was segregated by gender and was filled with lukewarm water. While they were initially shy, they soon felt at ease, joking and laughing, often teasing one girl about her flirtations with the butcher's son.
