Chapter 270: Sending Peaches Again (Third update)_1

Feng Gu swept up the leaves and commented, "I just had a steamed bun."

"Just one steamed bun?" Nan Feng frowned, "I've been quite generous with your board allowance. Why did you only have one bun? You're at the age where you need to eat to grow. At least three to be full, right? Why are you saving that bit of money?"

Feng Gu paused before responding, "I...save some money for my father, he often goes hungry too."

"For your father? Didn't I already give him five taels of silver?"

"He used that five silver taels to pay for a bride price. I heard he brought my sister-in-law home a few days ago," Feng Gu blurted out naïvely.

"So your father doesn't have money for food now?" asked Nan Feng.

"Yes," Feng Gu quickly added, "Sister Nan Feng, you don't have to worry about me. I actually have enough to eat. I haven't needed much in the past, one steamed bun is enough."
