Tian Mi changed from squatting to sitting on the ground.

Even if she acts sexy and charming on a daily basis, it is just a means after all. When has she ever had such close contact with others?

This time her face really turned red, and she inexplicably felt a trembling sensation because Su Xuan's fingertips always accidentally touched the soles of her feet.

Su Xuan carefully observed Tian Mi's injuries and repeatedly touched her calves. After confirming the injuries, he started to divert her attention, "By the way, where is your home?"

"My home is..." Before he could finish his words, he heard a click, and his sprained calf instantly recovered. Apart from some redness and swelling on the surface, he no longer felt any pain.

She was shocked again. Is there such advanced medical skills?

"Hey, it doesn't hurt at all!" She looked surprised, put on her crystal sandals, stood up and walked a few steps, without noticing any strange feeling.

"It's not suitable for strenuous exercise these days. Just rest for a few days and you'll be fine." Su Xuan stood up and acted like a warm man, and gave instructions.

"Master Xiangguo, thank you so much!" She looked grateful and invited, "It's getting late now. If Master Xiangguo doesn't mind, please have dinner at my house before leaving."

"I will prepare a sumptuous lunch to entertain you, my Lord."

How rich is it?

Su Xuan blurted out almost subconsciously.

At that time, ordinary farmers only had two meals a day and basically did not eat lunch. Only wealthy or powerful families would have three or even four meals a day.

Seeing that Su Xuan didn't say anything, Tian Mi looked at Su Xuan with eyes full of expectation, making it impossible for people to have the heart to reject her.

Su Xuan nodded and agreed to her.

It was not for any other reason, he just simply wanted to see what other tricks Tian Mi had. The worst result would be to feed the tiger with his own body, and he could afford this loss.

"Is this what you usually eat?" Su Xuan asked as he watched Tian Mi carrying the bamboo basket.

"That's not the case. On weekdays, we also eat sunflowers, leeks, and the like. During festivals, we eat some meat." Tian Mi responded, "This is the life of an ordinary farmer's disciple. As a member of the Tian clan, I am naturally treated better."

"Since the Prime Minister is in a high position, he must have tasted all kinds of delicacies from land and sea. Trying some farm dishes today may give it a different flavor."

Su Xuan shook his head. "I'm not so particular about food. I can eat delicacies from the mountains and the sea, and I can also eat farm dishes. It all depends on whether it suits my taste."

The two walked towards Four Seasons Town while talking.

Along the way, people were pointing and whispering from time to time. Although the voices were small, Su Xuan could still hear them clearly.

"This vixen, I don't know where she seduced this man from, she is really a slut!"

"She exposes her chest and legs every day. I don't know who she is showing it to. Who knows what bad intentions she has!"

"I heard that this vixen has bewitched Chief Wu Kuang and Hall Master Tian Meng, but I don't know if it's true or not."

"You better keep a close eye on your man. Last time he saw this bitch, his eyes went wide open! Who knows, they might end up getting together someday!"

"This heartless guy! I'll teach him a lesson when I get home today!"

.....

Most of them are gossiping women who dare not speak to others’ faces and only talk in a low voice behind their backs.

Su Xuan frowned slightly, somewhat displeased.

But he did not act like a hot-blooded young man and come forward to help. Instead, he glanced at Tian Mi and found that she remained calm from beginning to end.

It was not until they entered the courtyard that Tian Mi put down the bamboo basket and spoke, "Master Xiangguo, do you know why they said that to me but I didn't refute them?"

"The clear will be clear, the turbid will be turbid, and rumors will stop at the wise." Su Xuan answered without thinking.

Tian Mi's eyes lit up, and she murmured softly, as if recalling the past. Then she looked at Su Xuan and asked seriously, "Does the Prime Minister think... that I am a vixen?"

Su Xuan did not answer directly, but asked, "Why do you want to label yourself? The one carrying the bamboo basket, singing ballads, and happily picking plantain seeds, isn't that you?"

Tian Mi was slightly stunned, and then she saw Su Xuan continue, "Beauty is a gift, but it is also easy to be envied. When they say this about you, aren't they envious of your beauty?"

Tian Mi's mood instantly brightened up. She blinked her eyes. Her pair of beauty moles and peach blossom eyes made her look charming and enchanting.

"Can I take this as the Prime Minister praising me?"

"If you think so." Su Xuan shrugged without comment.

Tian Mi brought the tea set and poured tea for Su Xuan. She put her hands behind her back, leaned forward slightly and said with a smile, "Then I will take it as a compliment from the Prime Minister."

"Please sit down for a moment, my Lord. Lunch will be ready soon."

After saying that, she tied on an apron and went to the kitchen to prepare.

Not long after, she brought a few plates of fried side dishes and placed them on the table.

"Mr. Prime Minister, please try it." She brought a pot of fine wine and poured a glass for each of them.

Su Xuan tasted the side dish and was a little surprised because it tasted really good.

"We farm girls are quite proficient in cooking." Her charming peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, looking somewhat proud.

"I noticed that there seems to be no trace of other people in the room. Have you lived alone all this time?" Su Xuan asked tentatively. He was actually a little curious about how Tian Mi changed from her current appearance to her appearance in the future.

Tian Mi was silent for a while, and her expression became obviously depressed. "My parents died a long time ago."

"Sorry..." Su Xuan looked apologetic.

Tian Mi waved her hand, "It's okay, it's been a long time."

She took a sip of the wine, her red lips were moist, and her peach blossom eyes stared straight at Su Xuan, "Master Xiangguo, do you want to hear my story?"

"Since my parents passed away, I have no one to talk to. I have kept everything in my heart for too long." She drank the wine in the crystal glass and fell into nostalgia. "My father died on the battlefield because of the army conscription when I was ten years old."

"Since then, I have been dependent on my mother. The first year was relatively ok, and many people helped me and my mother."

"But soon, everything changed. Every time they came to help, they always looked at my mother with ill intentions. Although their eyes were very hidden, I still noticed it."

"I drove them all away and told my mother about it. She sighed but didn't say much. Since then, our lives have become much more difficult. We have been hungry and full every day."

"Gradually, rumors started to spread from somewhere, saying that my mother was a vixen who flirted with men everywhere."

"They were just like they are now, being sarcastic and gossiping behind each other's backs."

"My mother couldn't stand the rumors and collapsed, so she jumped into the river and committed suicide."

"The night before that, my mother held me and talked to me for a long time. I thought I could get through it all."

Her nose twitched, and her voice trembled a little, becoming much colder. "Later, I began to take revenge on them. Didn't they say that my mother and I were vixens? Then I became the vixen!"

"I began to learn to use my beauty to make them fight for my favor, causing fights and family discord."

"I took revenge on everyone, but I can't be happy at all, because my mother will never come back."

Two lines of clear tears slid down from the corners of Tian Mi's eyes. She sobbed softly. She looked so weak that I felt pity for her.

"Master Xiangguo, can I borrow your shoulder for a moment?"

Although she was asking, she threw herself into Su Xuan's arms without saying a word, rested her head on his shoulder, and sobbed softly.
