Chapter 114 A Joyous Event

Old Mrs. Zhao was well aware of this, but it was precisely because Zhao Zhifang and his wife were eyeing her money so covetously that she wanted to spend it.

"Shanshan is all grown up now, and I want to transfer the house to her name and make a will while I'm at it."

After she dies, everything under her name, including the house in the city, will be left to Zhao Shan.

“I’m too old to protect her for long. If I leave the money to her, she’ll eventually run out of it.”

Why not leave her a bed and breakfast that provides a long-term income?

Even if she doesn't make money, having this house means she has a home.

Yan Sui nodded. "Once you've made up your mind, go ahead and do it. I'll give you Aunt Ruan's nephew's contact information. You can contact him to help you with the renovation."

Ruan Wenze is a kind-hearted man, and out of consideration for Aunt Ruan, he wouldn't take advantage of the villagers of Changqing Village.

Old Mrs. Zhao just wanted some affirmation, and hearing Yan Sui's words made her feel at ease.

"Okay, I'll head back now."

Everything has to wait until Zhao Shan finishes her college entrance exam.

As soon as she stood up, Old Lady Zhao couldn't help but ask again, "Guo Qiang's ducks, have nothing to do with you, right?"

Although Guo Qiang was raising the ducks, it was actually Gao Wen and his wife who paid for them.

All the ducks are gone, and Guo Qiang has been arrested and taken to the police station. Can Guo Lan just let it go like this?

Yan Sui smiled indifferently, "I wouldn't go so far as to harm a duck. There are surveillance cameras over at the lotus pond. If Guo Qiang wants to see them, I can pull up the recordings anytime."

Grandma Zhao was relieved that Yan Sui hadn't interfered.

While they were talking, Fu Yansheng had already picked all the small cucumbers that he could.

Two large baskets were full, and Yan Sui also packed some for Old Lady Zhao.

The rest, after being divided up, isn't actually that much.

"Mr. Fu is becoming more and more skilled at his work."

He put his coat aside and wore only a black shirt, which gave him an unfathomable air.

He doesn't look like someone who does farm work at all; he even looks more like a big boss than Qu Jiang.

"Thanks to Miss Yan for giving me the opportunity to gain experience."

Yan Sui asked him to help deliver these small cucumbers home.

"My aunt makes really delicious pickled cucumbers, do you like them?"

Fu Yansheng didn't actually have any particular favorite foods; he just felt that most things he ate were pretty much the same.

Upon closer reflection, he was actually a completely boring person.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Yan Sui tilted her head and leaned forward.

"It's okay if you don't like it, I won't get angry."

Looking at the small face so close to his, Fu Yansheng said softly, "I've never eaten it before, so I don't know if I'll like it."

Yan Sui thought it was something serious that would make him worry about it for so long.

"I'll send you some to try later. It's very refreshing and appetizing. If you like it, you can take some home with you."

"good."

At that moment, Song Yuxia ran over.

"Yan Sui, I found two ducks by the lotus pond!"

"Guo Qiang's duck? You can leave it there for now and return it to him later."

Yan Sui waved her hand, not paying much attention to the duck.

"It's not Guo Qiang's duck, it must be a wild duck that was bitten by a leopard cat."

Song Yuxia ran back to tell Yan Sui because she thought the two ducks were cute.

The two pheasants that Yan Sui's family raises are wild chickens; they only kept them because they were pretty.

"Alright, I'll go take a look." Yan Sui clapped her hands and called to Sui Sui to go together.

After all, she was the one who summoned those leopard cats, and she had to take responsibility for accidentally injuring the wild ducks.

As Yan Sui arrived at the lotus pond, she noticed two wild ducks in a cage that didn't look too well.

They do look quite unique, with dark green heads and necks that gleam with a beautiful metallic sheen.

The crest is very long, like a disheveled student who gets cornered at the classroom door by the headmaster for not combing their hair in the morning.

Judging from their appearance, these two animals are male and female, and they are somewhat different in appearance.

The injured duck was the female; it had been bitten on the leg.

Yan Sui picked them up and took them home.

The wound is not deep and is relatively easy to treat.

The two wild ducks were quite docile and did not resist, letting her treat their wounds.

If it were the king or the prince, they would have already started fighting with her.

"Alright, I don't know what you like to eat, so have some vegetables first, and I'll go to the market tomorrow to buy you fish."

Yan Sui casually grabbed a handful of green vegetables and threw them into the cage.

At first, they seemed uninterested, until the king strode over with domineering steps, trying to squeeze into the cage and snatch it from them.

Two wild ducks, wanting to defend their food, began to eat it eagerly.

Sure enough, no one could resist the vegetables Yan Sui grew, and the ducks were no exception.

Yan Sui slapped the king's forehead, "There's good food in your nest, don't you dare fight with them for it."

The king rubbed his head against her palm, expressing his dissatisfaction.

It viewed the two wild ducks as outsiders competing with it for food.

However, it was clever and soon changed its strategy, bringing its flock of fluffy chicks over to fawn over it.

He tried to win back Yan Sui's heart with the cute little chicks and drive away the two wild ducks.

Yan Sui patted each of their heads. "I won't keep them at home. Once they've recovered, I'll send them back to the lotus pond."

"Meow~" Sui Sui nodded in agreement.

The king was relieved; as long as the long-term meal ticket remained faithful, that was fine.

Yan Sui was both amused and exasperated; she was really easy to coax.

The next day, seeing that the two wild ducks were in good condition, she asked Song Yuxia to release them back to the edge of the lotus pond.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Song Yuxia carried the cage out the door, the female duck began to quack weakly.

"Yan Sui, it seems a bit bad. It looks even worse than yesterday."

Yan Sui took the cage and examined it. "No way, I've been observing it all morning. It can eat, drink, and jump around. It seems to be in good condition."

Song Yuxia felt a little reluctant, "How about we observe it for another day and put it back tomorrow?"

"Alright."

Yan Sui then put the cage back in its original place.

Now the two kings were furious and wanted to fight them even through the cage.

We agreed to send them away.

The female duck cried and called out twice to Yan Sui.

Through the years, Yan Sui came to understand its meaning.

The gist is: "Won't they be unhappy if you keep me here? Or you could send me away and let me fend for myself. I'm fine with that."

It sounds like a Longjing tea from 1982.

Yan Sui tapped Sui Sui on the head, "Promise me you won't watch too many short dramas with Grandma, okay?"

Meow~

She observed for a while and confirmed that the female duck was faking it, which made her both amused and exasperated.

"My house doesn't have a pond for you to play in; the lotus pond area is a better place."

The female duck remained unmoved.

"If you don't leave, I'll send your friend away!"

Continue lying there pretending to be dead.

Yan Sui nodded her chin. "Sui Sui told them to go back to the lotus pond obediently, and I'll bring them food."

"Meow!"

After some effort, Yan Sui finally understood that it was all for this meal.

She glanced at the king chicken obediently incubating its eggs in the coop and couldn't help but feel worried.

We can barely afford to raise them anymore.

"Sister Yuxia, let's take these two wild ducks back."

Song Yuxia laughed and said, "Why don't you give them names too?"

Yan Sui gently stroked the ruffled feathers on the female duck's head, "Mandarin ducks are red and wild ducks are blue, so let's call it..."

“Willows red and willows green!” Song Yuxia blurted out.

Yan Sui glanced at her, "Why are you stealing other people's names?"

"What else should we call it?"

"Call them diamonds and spades."

Song Yuxia: "Then why did you recite this poem?"

Yan Sui said confidently, "This makes me seem cultured."

Song Yuxia said with a long face, "Okay."

She carried the cage, preparing to release them back into the lotus pond.

Before she even stepped out the door, her parents, whom she hadn't seen in a long time, came over.

"Yuxia! You child, I've been looking for you everywhere. Come home with me now." Song's mother grabbed her arm.

Song Yuxia had never been close to them, was not used to physical contact, and stood still like a wooden statue.

"Why are you here?"

Song's father couldn't hide his joy. "Of course, there's something I need."

Song Yuxia looked suspicious. "What is it?"

Song's mother smiled and replied, "It's great news for you. You'll find out when you come home with us!"
