Chapter 1194

The moon, gradually crescent-shaped~

And beneath the star-strewn sky.

Inside the "Big White" motorhome.

In the dim light, mostly turned off.

Qin Feng, as if coaxing a child,

Told Reba the legendary story about Miao batik.

Reba pulled the small quilt over herself.

Only her head peeking out~

She blinked her eyes and said to Qin Feng: "I'm ready~ Let's start, Dad!"

Qin Feng:...

Good heavens~

Before, I tried every trick to set a trap for this woman, yet she wouldn't call me Dad.

Now she's so proactive?

But then again~

To hear a story,

Calling me Dad twice is no harm, right?

At least for Reba right now, that's how it is~

Qin Feng lay on his side on the motorhome bed.

And began to speak gently.

He said: "Let's clarify first: legends are legends because they are passed down through word-of-mouth stories."

"So, a story isn't history; just listen for fun."

Reba nodded repeatedly.

Like a chick pecking rice~

Her head bobbing like pounding garlic~

She said: "I know! I'm not a three-year-old; how could I believe everything I hear?"

Qin Feng shrugged and said: "Sometimes, your judgment might not even be as good as a three-year-old's."

Reba's expression: (´; ω; ｀)—┬─┬

She pursed her lips and said: "That's too much!"

Chirp chirp~

Squeak squeak~

Amidst the faint chirping of cicadas and croaking of frogs in the summer night.

Qin Feng said: "Legend has it that long, long ago, there was a Miao girl who felt her clothes were not beautiful because they lacked pretty patterns." Reba nodded: "Everyone loves beauty~"

Qin Feng said: "But in ancient times, there were no convenient dyeing techniques, so naturally, pretty patterns couldn't be printed on clothes."

Reba nodded again: "That's true; after all, the earliest humans didn't even know how to use fire."

Qin Feng raised an eyebrow, looking at his silly sister-in-law.

He smiled and said: "Are you just flattering me here?"

Reba shrugged and said: "You talking alone is so boring~"

Qin Feng smiled and shook his head, continuing: "So this Miao girl thought, 'If only my clothes could have pretty patterns!'" Reba said: "The pursuit of beauty is also one of the reasons for human progress."

She then asked: "So, the second half of the story..."

"... is that this Miao girl worked hard to study and finally discovered the Miao batik technique?"

Before Qin Feng could speak,

Reba shook her head and denied her own guess.

She said: "No~ If that were the case, the story wouldn't have a legendary feel or any drama!"

People often say:

"In literature, like viewing mountains, one dislikes flatness."

So, Reba thinks,

In the story Qin Feng is telling,

If this Miao girl merely encountered a problem and then solved it immediately,

That would be too plain, wouldn't it?

Completely lacking any twists and turns.

So!

The story's development must not be like that.

It must have some twists and turns~

Qin Feng spread his small hands, smiled at Reba, and said nothing.

Reba puffed her cheeks and said: "I know my guess is wrong, but I feel it should be like this..."

Forced
