As the evening descended, the dishes in the kitchen were finally all prepared.

Ten dishes and a soup!

In the countryside, this was already the highest standard. Generally, even for weddings, funerals, or other events, families wouldn't have so many dishes on the table.

Jiang Feng was genuinely a bit overwhelmed by the hospitality.

This was nothing like those millionaires spending tens of millions to treat him to a meal; it entirely showed the sincerity and thoughtfulness of the Mu Shuisheng couple.

Mu Yanluo brought out the steaming hot ten dishes one after the other from the kitchen and placed them on the stone table.

She couldn't resist going back to her room to change into another outfit, putting on Ruan Xiuqin's youthful farmhouse attire.

A simple cotton vest adorned with floral patterns, long single-layer pants, and homemade embroidered cloth shoes.

The mother and daughter had similar figures, and these clothes fit her perfectly.

Although the outfit appeared quite rustic, it had a unique charm on Mu Yanluo, devoid of any village girl aura.

After helping her father around for half a day, Mu Yanluo's cheeks were already flushed, radiant like a flower, with a faint sheen of sweat, making her resemble a dewy blossom, gracefully moving with the wind, exuding a fragrance that was truly captivating.

Jiang Feng stood up to help her place the dishes on the table one by one, reluctantly saying, "This is too much; we can't possibly eat it all."

"Haha, eat to your fill, you rarely come to visit my house!"

Mu Yanluo playfully rolled her eyes at Jiang Feng, pointing at a dish and said, "I made this fish, make sure you eat plenty!"

"Sure."

Soon, Mu Shuisheng and Ruan Xiuning also finished their tasks in the kitchen, washed their hands, and sat down on the stone stools.

"By the way, honey, I haven't asked you yet, what was that horn outside about? Did something happen to someone's family again?"

Only after Mu Shuisheng sat down did he remember and asked.

"Don't even talk about it, Shuanshuan died in childbirth."

Ruan Xiuning shook her head in lament, "Neither the mother nor the child was saved. What's happening to our village, incidents keep happening one after another. Could it really be like Xiao Feng said, that the Wei Family is behind it...?"

"Mom, let's eat first, let's not talk about unhappy stuff, or the dishes will get cold!"

Mu Yanluo quickly changed the subject, not wanting the hard-prepared dishes to go to waste, and couldn't let the atmosphere at the dining table become heavy.

"Right, let's eat first, and not talk about that!"

Mu Shuisheng responded, then smiled at Jiang Feng asking, "Xiao Feng, there aren't any fancy dishes at home, just some simple ones, hope they suit your taste!"

"You're too kind, I love these," Jiang Feng replied.

"Haha, that's great! Come, let's have a drink first, to welcome you from afar to visit our home, and thank you for saving me. Also… about you and Xiao Luo, her mom and I have no objections, we hope you both do well and you can take good care of my daughter..."

Mu Shuisheng chuckled heartily, toasting Jiang Feng.

"Dad!!"

Mu Yanluo suddenly felt uneasy again, why bring this up again? Doesn't he want to let her eat!

"Haha, I also forgot to mention one thing, that our eldest daughter has returned! Come, to celebrate our eldest daughter coming home, let's have fun and don't sleep until we're drunk!" Mu Shuisheng laughed again, looking at Mu Yanluo as he spoke.

"No way! Dad, you just recovered, drink less! Besides, if you drink too much, you might start talking nonsense!" Mu Yanluo said indignantly.

"Uh..."

The couple looked at their daughter's shy and complaining demeanor, enjoying the moment, further solidifying their thoughts on Jiang Feng and their daughter's relationship.

Thankfully, a little awkward episode quickly passed peacefully.

Jiang Feng found the meal quite pleasant, and Mu Shuisheng's cooking was decent. The simple chicken, duck, fish, and meat were quite to his liking.

However, as he continued eating, Chu Feifei and the other girls kept messaging him, asking where he was and what he was doing.

Jiang Feng could only respond briefly without giving too much detail.

After a third round of dishes and five flavors of drinks, Jiang Feng asked for two more buns to eat with the dishes.

Mu Yanluo watched curiously, "Jiang Feng, are you really that hungry?"

She couldn't believe her parents' cooking was really that good to make Jiang Feng eat with such satisfaction.

"Not really." Jiang Feng smiled lightly, "You need to be full to have the strength to work. I have something to do later."

"Ah? Xiao Feng, it will be late after dinner, what else do you need to do?" Ruan Xiuning asked quickly.

"Nothing much." Jiang Feng wouldn't reveal the truth, "Just a small matter, Uncle Mu and Aunt, no need to ask, I'll just go out for a bit, don't wait up, get some rest."

"Alright, Xiao Feng, just be careful!"

Mu Shuisheng thought Jiang Feng was curious about the village and wanted to take a walk, so he didn't ask further, "But it's fine, our village's security at night is even better than the city's."

"Okay."

After dinner, Mu Shuisheng and Ruan Xiuning cleaned up the dishes, and Mu Yanluo helped bring the leftovers back to the kitchen, while Jiang Feng walked out of the yard alone.

Who knew, just as he stepped out, Mu Yanluo hurriedly followed him.

"What's wrong?" Jiang Feng stopped and asked.

"Jiang Feng, I feel like you're hiding something from me."

Mu Yanluo looked at him seriously, "Since the afternoon, you've been acting mysteriously!"

"You noticed?" Jiang Feng smiled slightly, understanding that women truly have a strong sixth sense.

"What is it, can you tell me?" Mu Yanluo asked, her curiosity piqued.

"I'm going to the back mountain." Jiang Feng replied evasively, in a concise manner.

"Back mountain?" Mu Yanluo was taken aback.

"Yes, to see the Wei Family's cemetery." Jiang Feng remained calm.

"Wha… why? It's so late, what are you going there for?"

Mu Yanluo found it even more unbelievable, who goes to a cemetery at night?

"You don't need to worry about me, go back, and get some rest early, I'll be back after a short walk." Jiang Feng waved her off.

"No!"

Mu Yanluo suddenly stepped forward, her eyes intense, "I'm not at ease! Besides, without you, I can't sleep…"

Saying this, she blushed again, "No matter what you're doing, I'll go with you, I know the way..."

"It's really not necessary, I can go alone—"

"Jiang Feng, please take me with you!"

Mu Yanluo said embarrassingly, "To be honest, here, unless you're with me, I don't feel safe, what if Wei Shuaizhong comes looking for me again…"

Hearing her say this, Jiang Feng had no choice but to say, "Alright, we'll go together, don't be afraid."

With that, he took Mu Yanluo to the eerie and dark Wei Family cemetery on the back mountain!
