After returning from the town, the Minister of Agriculture finally stopped mentioning the hybrid rice seeds.

Old Mrs. Xu also thought that he had given up, so she took her son and daughter-in-law to prepare New Year's goods.

The New Year is approaching, and the villagers of Xianyu Village have made a lot of money from the Xu family this year, and almost every household is smiling.

They were grateful to the Xu family for giving them the opportunity to make money, and they spontaneously sent things to the Xu family in the past few days.

Then the Xu family discovered that every day when they opened the door, they could see a chicken or a duck lying on the ground, a few fish, a few baskets of vegetables, etc.

Because she didn't know who sent them and couldn't send them back, Old Mrs. Xu asked her son and daughter-in-law to accept them all.

Around the Xu family mansion, the sea breeze blew through the bamboo forest, and dry bamboo leaves were flying all over the sky. The little kid who was hiding in the corner of the bamboo forest and peeking found that the Xu family had put away the things, so he immediately got up and ran back to the village to tell everyone the good news!

Grand Minister of Agriculture Qin Wen thought about it for several nights and finally gave up asking Xu Ning for seeds. He told Old Lady Xu that he would leave the Xu family after the New Year. Before leaving, he rented land in the backyard of the Xu family and started growing vegetables.

Xu Ning never went out since she went out through the back door that day. Whenever she had something to say, she would ask Xu Yuan to pass on the message.

As for herself, apart from eating and going to the toilet, she basically stayed in her room and rarely even went out of the yard.

As for what she was doing, only the Xu family knew.

"Baby, what is the Minister of Agriculture doing today?" After finishing lunch, Xu Ning crawled back into bed, with one toe sticking out of the quilt and wiggling.

"Just like yesterday, I'm working in the backyard."

"Okay, someone tell me, I'll watch some drama." Xu Ning turned over, took out his tablet and started watching drama.

Here it comes again, the treasure chest is speechless.

On the first day, when Xu Ning did this, Bai Baoxiang tried to persuade him to complete the task, but Xu Ning replied, "It's so cold, and we can't grow any crops. Why suffer this? Isn't the bed nice? The play may not be new, but isn't it interesting?"

"But players, can you take this opportunity to make plans for next year?"

"It's too early. What's the point of making a plan? Plans can't keep up with changes. If there's another disaster, we're not sure whether this place will be habitable or not!!" The Xu family had been fleeing famine for such a long time and finally settled down. Plus, the Chinese New Year was coming soon, and Xu Ning didn't want the Xu family to be unhappy throughout the year.

As for food and drink, she had already prepared them.

The thing Xu Ning had the most of was points. Before purchasing the space for free, he had exchanged it for tens of thousands of square meters and put all the things from the Evil Ghost Island and the county government office in it.

Also, when she was in Wancheng, she secretly put in a lot of cloth and other useful things.

Therefore, even if natural disasters continue to occur, Xu Ning is confident that he can take the Xu family to hide and have enough food and drink!

The treasure chest found that Xu Ning could not be persuaded at all, so it gave up. After all, if the task could not be completed in the end, it would not be the only one to be punished!

In the blink of an eye, it was New Year's Eve. Xu Ning originally wanted to go back to his room after dinner, but before he even left the stool, he was grabbed by Old Lady Xu.

"You have to stay up all night today, Xu Daya, and put all important things aside." Old Mrs. Xu spoke softly without a stern face.

"Okay, grandma, Daya will listen to you." Xu Ning immediately agreed with a smile. It was just a matter of watching less drama, which was not a big problem. Besides, there was a brazier in the hall so it wasn't cold. It was just that sitting was not as comfortable as lying down.

Xu Ning and Xu Yuan sat together, stretching out their hands to warm themselves by the fire. Xu Feng threw seven or eight sweet potatoes into the fire, and he and Xu An would dig into them from time to time.

There was a knock at the door of Xu's house. Xu Da ran to open the door. Soon Pei Jiao and the people from the small mountain village came in carrying things.

"Grandma Xu! Happy New Year!" Mr. and Mrs. Xu accepted the New Year gifts from them, and Xu An spontaneously stood up to help show everyone to sit down.

"Happy New Year!"

“Happy New Year’s Eve!”

Pei Jiao and the others were busy washing up all day, and only had time to come to the Xu family in the evening.

Old Mrs. Xu looked at the freshly dressed Pei Jiao and the people behind her, and couldn't help but smile lovingly. She brought out a bamboo basket filled with candies, biscuits and other snacks, and warmly invited them to come and eat!

"Sister Pei! Pei Ni Da Zhuang! I'm here! Come over and warm yourself by the fire!"
