You Said You Didn't Want to Acknowledge Me, So Why Are You Crying Now That I've Truly Cut Ties?

Yun Zhiyi always thought she was the fake young mistress who had taken another's place. After the real one returned, she held back in every way.

Only after being thrown into the mass grav...

Chapter 170 Building a Flower Garden

Yun Zhiyi turned her head, waiting for her to ask.

Princess Fu'an hesitated for a long time, but in the end she did not ask the question in her heart. Instead, she continued to follow them to the backyard forest as if nothing had happened.

Princess Fu'an is a clever person.

He grew up in the palace and was deeply loved by the Empress Dowager.

The reason she remains detached from the power struggles among the princes and factional affiliations even now is because she is rational and clear-headed enough.

If it weren't for the Emperor Emeritus's address of "Master".

She might actually ask out of curiosity.

But now she has realized that whether it is Prince Cheng or her maternal grandfather, their presence here may not be solely for medical treatment.

There must be some secret that she shouldn't know.

After all, a life-saving favor alone is definitely not enough to make the retired emperor do things for him.

The term "boss" implies a subordinate position.

Who in this world could make a high-ranking emperor do such a thing?

Therefore, the power behind Yun Zhiyi is probably deeper and more mysterious than anyone imagined, and they don't even care about the royal family.

Even royalty had to look up to them.

Even though she couldn't imagine what this force was, she was surprised that it actually existed.

Yun Zhiyi had long been aware of Princess Fu'an's intelligence, but it still surprised her at this moment.

This woman's character and intelligence were even better than she had imagined.

She won't bring it up unless asked.

That evening, Yun Zhiyi hosted a small outdoor barbecue party in the courtyard where Princess Fu'an was staying.

There are only four of us, so it's not worth having a banquet.

It was originally intended to be placed over the grape trellis.

However, Fu Wenyu didn't dare to step out of the courtyard, so she simply held the event in their courtyard.

Two long, specially made charcoal grills were placed in the center of the courtyard.

All the ingredients were marinated in advance by the chef, skewered on iron skewers, and then placed on several tables around the kitchen.

Several layers of mats were laid out on the side, and a small table and a futon were placed on top of them.

The group then sat down to eat.

In addition to the barbecue items, the kitchen also prepared several hot dishes and snacks.

Yun Zhiyi and Princess Fu'an then sat at the table, eating and chatting.

Fu Ziyu and Fu Wenyu, the aunt and niece who were strangers to each other, were enjoying the barbecue.

Neither of them had ever experienced this kind of open-air barbecue before, and they were having a great time, forgetting the conflict they had during the day.

At first, Fu Wenyu was unwilling to even leave the house.

It wasn't until I saw them setting up a fire and barbecuing in the yard through the window that I couldn't resist my curiosity and came out.

Once you get the hang of it, you'll enjoy it immensely and temporarily forget all your worries.

As she sat on a small stool, carefully brushing sauce onto the chicken wings, she casually picked up some strawberries from the table and ate them one by one.

My mouth was bulging from being so full.

Perhaps good food really can soothe the soul.

Anyway, she's as happy as a lark right now.

Today, Yun Zhiyi took out all the fruit that was available in the village and cut it into a fruit platter.

Princess Fu'an and Fu Wenyu had tasted some of these fruits, while others they had not.

But without a doubt, either one can instantly capture their hearts.

Besides fruit, there were also tea drinks they had never seen before.

Colorful, beautiful and delicious.

Upon hearing that Yun Zhiyi had opened a shop in the city that specializes in selling this kind of beverage, Fu Wenyu immediately said that he would go to the shop to take a look tomorrow.

She completely forgot that there was a mountain pressing down on her from the outside.

Yun Zhiyi and Princess Fu'an exchanged a glance and couldn't help but chuckle.

But he didn't spoil her mood at this time.

The next day, after breakfast, Yun Zhiyi took the two adults and one child to tour the farm.

The main purpose was to visit the sunflower field.

Yesterday during the barbecue, Fu Wenyu heard Fu Ziyu recount the amazing story of how sunflowers could turn their heads to follow the sun, and he disregarded his fear of his third brother and insisted on coming to see.

Of course, he made a point of sending a guard out to scout before leaving the manor, only daring to go out after confirming that his third brother was not there.

With the autumn harvest approaching, farmers are busy in the fields early in the morning.

The village was very quiet.

The group went directly to the sunflower field.

The sun was already high in the sky at that moment.

The September sun is no longer strong, but rather mild, although the temperature is relatively low.

In September, the temperature in Lufeng City had already dropped to below 20 degrees Celsius.

Especially in the early morning, the temperature is only around 15 degrees Celsius.

When they went out in the morning, the two of them had put on thick cloaks, and they couldn't help but shiver when the cold wind blew.

"Why is it so much colder this autumn?" Fu Wenyu couldn't help but complain.

Princess Fu'an explained, "Lufeng City should enter late autumn earlier than the capital."

Yun Zhiyi nodded, "The average temperature in Lufeng City is a bit lower than in the capital. Frost will start to form around next month, and it will snow in November."

"It's snowing so early, when will it stop?" Fu Wenyu asked in surprise.

Although it snows in Beijing in winter, it usually happens during the coldest part of January, and the snowfall stops after a few snowfalls.

During that time, she didn't even want to go out.

If it weren't for the need to study and learn manners, she would have preferred to stay in her bed filled with hot water bottles forever.

When Yun Zhiyi said it would take another three months, she was immediately filled with sympathy.

That's terrible. It's so cold, and we still have to endure it for three months.

She couldn't endure it for even a month.

The group walked and talked until they finally arrived at the sunflower field.

Although the weather is getting colder, the sunflowers have not been greatly affected.

Firstly, these sunflower seeds were created using her supernatural abilities, so their vitality is unmatched by ordinary plants.

Secondly, sunflowers are not weak in cold resistance, and there is sunshine now.

If the planting were delayed by another month, the flowering period would coincide with the frost, and without her further enhancement using her supernatural abilities, it would be affected.

The flower head may rot in the frost, making it difficult for the sunflower seeds to grow, or most of them will be empty shells.

As Yun Zhiyi led them around the sunflower field, she gave them a brief introduction to the sunflowers.

Fu Ziyu also took out his snack pouch and shared a handful of caramel sunflower seeds with the group.

However, only Fu Wenyu was casually cracking sunflower seeds into the shells.

She ate a handful of caramel sunflower seeds last night. If there hadn't been so many delicious things that filled her stomach, she probably wouldn't have been able to stop.

She never knew that these snacks, which usually didn't interest her, could be so delicious.

Moreover, it has a peculiar magic; once you start hitting it, you can't stop.

Holding a handful of delicious sunflower seeds, I looked closely at the sunflower head and discovered that the tiny flower core inside was actually the stem of a sunflower seed.

I heard that once the seeds are ripe and dried, the green stems will fall off, and then you can crack them open.

She really wanted to pick one off and take a look.

However, I still remember that it was because I wanted to pick flowers that I attracted Third Brother yesterday.

Moreover, she promised Fu Ziyu last night that she would absolutely not pick or damage the flowers.

So, unfortunately, we had to give up.

After looking at the sunflowers, I walked right up to the vineyard next door.

However, at this time, the vineyard only has rows of old grape stalks with few leaves left.
