"Madam, let's go."
After Wei Zhan finished his lotus root paste soup, he took his wife's hand and left once she finished as well.
At this time, the boatman rowed over with about twenty lotus root chunks on his boat.
Wei Zhan helped Yingbao onto the boat first. He gave a sigh of relief when he turned back and saw that Xiao Mo hadn't followed.
The two of them navigated through the dense lotus leaves on the boat. Wei Zhan casually washed a piece of tender lotus root, took a bite, and found it to be incredibly refreshing and sweet.
The boatman chuckled and said, "In a few days, we'll have water chestnuts and barnyard millet here. If young master visits again, you can have some."
Wei Zhan smiled, "I will buy some when the time comes."
Yingbao quickly picked several large lotus leaves. She placed the lotus roots on them and immediately carried them back to the shore.
