Chapter 447: Chapter 447 Don’t Let Me Wear the Green Hat (5)_1

Mo Heng stared blankly at the mooncake with chives and egg filling.

"This is called a mooncake!?" Zhang Gengshan exclaimed, his eyes wide.

Mo Heng cut a few more, looked at the variety of fillings that were anything but traditional for mooncakes, and couldn’t help but laugh. He picked up a piece, put it in his mouth, and took a bite. Only she could make such mooncakes.

"Young master..." Feng Wei frowned. Pei Qin had rejected the young master like this, and was still all lovey-dovey with Shen Songming, not taking the young master seriously. Just a few pieces of mooncake, and the young master is this happy!?

After Mo Heng finished half a mooncake, he glanced at Feng Wei, "You need to keep a good watch, I don’t want to end up wearing a green hat."

Feng Wei and Zhang Gengshan’s expressions stiffened. The young master is still in a good mood!?

As Mo Heng tasted another kind of mooncake, Feng Wei thought of what Zhang Gengshan had said about them drinking, so he took to the roof, hiding in the elm tree outside of Pei Qin’s house to keep watch.

Pei Qin wasn’t drunk; she was very sober.

Shen Songming wanted to get her to drink a few more cups. It was one thing for wine to intoxicate, another for a person to get drunk on their own, but Pei Qin was too sober for him to get a chance to get close.

Pei Qin wasn’t feeling claustrophobic like she did during the New Year, so she drank quite a bit of the low-alcohol drinks without showing any signs of intoxication, "Tomorrow we need to go and check on the harvesting of the corn at Tian Zhuang, everyone should go to sleep early!" Feeling it was about time, she started ushering people out.

Shen Songming, wanting to take advantage of his drunkenness, acted foolishly, "Today is the fifteenth of August, we can’t let the full moon be complete without us being complete! You need to agree to marry me today!"

"Haven’t you ever heard that the moon is rounder on the sixteenth!? Drag him back!" Pei Qin directly called for his guards.

Shen Songming had waited eagerly for an opportunity. He hadn’t managed to get one during Qixi, so he had to propose during the Mid-Autumn Festival, making her agree was a must!

His guards were reluctant to drag him away. Lu Hai stepped forward, efficiently dragging Shen Songming out.

"Lu Hai! I am your life-saving benefactor, have you all stopped taking me seriously!?" Shen Songming gritted his teeth.

"Young Master Shen’s grace is, of course, etched in our hearts," Lu Hai said coldly, then closed the door.

Pei Qin listened to him shouting outside, smiled, and went to bed early.

Seeing Shen Songming gone, Feng Wei still didn’t relax and kept watching from the tree all night until the next day, when he saw Pei Qin heading out with a few Little Radishes in a donkey cart, saying they were going to Tian Zhuang to pick corn, before he returned to report back.

After working the whole day at Tian Zhuang, when the siblings returned in the evening, Shen Songming was waiting for her, his face gloomy and grim.

Pei Qin boiled hot water, and they all took baths first, getting cleaned up. She then told Pei Yuan and Pei Qian to go to the noodle shop to get some noodles and make cold noodles for dinner.

"Include a portion for me!" Shen Songming reminded them, his face still looking unpleasant.

Pei Qin beckoned him over with a smile, "Come here, I have something to say to you!"

Shen Songming was suspicious, "What do you want to say?"

"Are you coming over or not?" Pei Qin glared.

"I’m not coming over! Unless you agree to marry me!" Shen Songming decided he would not help her anymore! He had to get a yes from her first.

"You dare to marry me if I agree?" Pei Qin raised an eyebrow.

"Just say yes, and I’ll take care of everything," Shen Songming stared at her, dissatisfied and with a hint of resignation.

"All right then!" Pei Qin nodded.

Shen Songming didn’t react for a moment, then suddenly sprung up after a while, "What do you mean all right? You’re agreeing to marry me!?"

"Mhm!" Pei Qin replied to him.

Shen Songming’s eyes immediately blazed with ignited fire, he excitedly lunged towards her.
