Suddenly, the strawberry seedlings blossomed with small flowers.

The wheat also turned green, as if it was about to produce grains again.

Liu Xia was excited. Could the result be repeated?

She told Su Yun about this, and they both went out with the strawberries.

Su Yun took three strawberries and put one into the mouth of Liu Quanzheng, who was teaching Su Bing.

She ran to the aisle and fed Su Huaiyi who was weaving a basket.

Without giving anyone a chance to react, he ran to the kitchen and gave the last one to Li.

"Milk, is it delicious?"

"It's delicious. What is this?" Li asked puzzledly.

Su Yun smiled, "Strawberries, I don't know where my dad got them from!"

Li nodded without asking any more questions.

She guessed that the strawberry might have been given to Guaiguai by Lin Linyi.

Liu Xia said the same words to Liu Quanzheng and the others.

Su Bing had a lot of questions in his head.

Where did he get these strawberries? He himself has never tasted them!

Seeing his father eating it with such relish, it must be delicious. Why not give it to him? "These strawberries are delicious. Where did you pick them, Tingyun? I'll go pick some for Xia'er later!" Liu Quanzheng asked.

"I picked these wild fruits from the mountains. I called them strawberries because they grew next to the weeds!"

When Su Bing met Liu Xia's threatening gaze, his brain started working rapidly and he blurted out the answer.

Su Huaiyi shouted at the door, "Don't go into that deep mountain next time!"

The few people had no doubts. Although it was freezing cold, there were still many things in the deep mountains!

Su Bing smiled bitterly and nodded, but in the end he also tasted what strawberry tasted like.

The family shared a few strawberries on the plate and ate them all.

…

At noon, Guan Qing asked Su Yun to remove the formation.

He went to distribute the food purchased by the villagers.

Guan Qing has some inside information that this natural disaster will not last long, and someone from the imperial court has taken action!

He can now share the food he stored among the families without any worries!

The new county magistrate arrived early and took office today.

County Magistrate Zhao and his entire family were thrown into prison.

It was said that too much tax was collected, and several large boxes of silver and a warehouse of grain were found in the house.

The newly appointed county magistrate immediately sold the grain to people who did not have much food at home at the usual price of 20 wen per pound.

Those who have no money can buy on credit.

Each household is limited to purchasing 100 kilograms.

These grains only belong to County Magistrate Zhao. After the disaster relief grain arrives, the poor households can get another 100 kilograms.

Longde Town actually does not belong to any county, and has a registered population of 10,000. It was renamed Longde County when County Magistrate Zhao took office, but the entrance relief has not been changed, so everyone still calls it Longde Town.

Now that the new county magistrate has taken office, he has changed the relief at the entrance from town to county in a very efficient way! Su Yun untied the formation and listened to the people around her talking about the new county magistrate.

"Zheng County is young, approachable, and efficient. You don't even know that he talked to me when I went to the county to watch the fun this morning! We will be the closest village to the county from now on!"

"Does it mean that the imperial court has discovered a new type of grain that can withstand cold weather? It will be distributed soon!"

[This is not going in the right direction! Wasn't this the barley seed that Su Xiyue discovered in March? How come there is a new grain seed now? ]

Su Yun couldn't understand.

"Sister Yun."

Hearing the shout, she turned around.

Su Yuansheng was holding a New Year gift, wearing a long green cotton gown, and standing there with a gentle smile like jade.

He is thirteen years old and is as tall as Su Jianan.

[Ahhh, how come they are all so tall! ]

Su Yun was so angry that she rubbed the snow with her feet.

Su Yuansheng's expression froze for a moment. Was this Sister Yun's voice?

He tried to touch Su Yun's head gently but was avoided.

The hand that was stretched out in the air was withdrawn uncomfortably.

He laughed and said, "Why, after not seeing each other for half a year, you don't even recognize me, brother?"

Su Yun turned and ran.

Only Su Yuansheng was left standing there, weathered by the wind.

Su Jianan on the side smiled bitterly, "Since the separation, the two families have become more distant. Now Yun girl doesn't even call me second uncle when she sees me! She used to be the closest to you, but I didn't expect she wouldn't even call you big brother!"

Su Yuansheng was so shocked that his palms were full of sweat. Isn’t he sister Yun’s biological brother?

Could it be that dad is not grandma’s biological son?

And his father's words always sound a bit strange...

Su Yuansheng calmed himself down and explained to Su Yun with a smile.

"I'm afraid she missed me too much, so she ran back to call for milk! Besides, it wasn't Xiyue who was wrong first, it's normal that uncle's family is estranged from us, isn't it?"

"What Xiyue Xiyue, she is your biological sister!" Su Jianan frowned.

What he couldn't stand most was that his son was close to the maid in the old family, but ignored his own sister.

It was so in the past and it is so now!

Su Yuansheng's voice turned cold.

"She's not my sister!"

He carried his things and walked towards Su's house.

Su Jianan was following behind and was so angry that he had a headache. He had no way to deal with this son who had never listened to him since he was a child.

When Su Yuansheng came back from New Year holiday, he noticed something different about Su Xiyue.

He didn't like it, either in the past or now! He had tried to be nice to this timid sister before, secretly leaving the remaining eggs for her to eat.

But Xiyue turned around and gave the egg to his mother! He also wanted to hug this little sister who lacked love, but Xiyue turned around and ran away when she saw him!

There were too many, so many that he couldn't count them all, so he no longer cared.

And he dislikes Xiyue even more now!

He is a dark person, with ambition and desire in his eyes!

Su Yuansheng walked silently until he stood in front of the Su family's door.

Looking at the closed door, he raised his hand and knocked.

"Grandpa, grandma, I'm Yuansheng, I'm back to wish you a happy new year!"

Li hardened her heart and pretended not to hear.

Su Huaiyi stopped weaving the basket and said, "Okay, go open the door for the child!"

"I won't open it. You go and open it if you want!" Li wiped the stone table with a rag for a long time, but her eyes were looking towards the door.

[My grandma is actually open-minded, right? Yuansheng has been sensible and filial since he was young. How can we just end our relationship after so many years? ]

Exposed by Su Yun, Li went into the kitchen with a rag.

Su Huaiyi patted the bamboo chips off his legs.

"You old woman, you say one thing and mean another!"

He stood up and opened the gate.

"Yuansheng is back, come in and sit down!"

"Happy New Year, Master!"

“Okay, okay!”

Su Huaiyi took the snack from Su Yuansheng's hand and ignored Su Jianan behind him.

[Don't come over here! ]

When Su Yun saw Su Yuansheng walking towards her, she quickly hid behind Liu Xia.

Liu Xia was making small clothes for the two children in her belly and she smiled helplessly.

"Yuansheng is back!"

"Aunt, where is my uncle?" Su Yuansheng nodded with a smile.

Liu Xia pointed to the main room, "Your uncle is studying!"

Su Jianan felt like an outsider at this moment, neither standing nor sitting.

His face turned black and he said to Su Huaiyi.

"Dad, I came here today to inform you and mom that after the New Year, our family will move to the capital!"

Su Huaiyi said nothing and continued to weave the basket in silence.

[Moving to the capital proves that the plot is about to begin. After entering the capital, the concubine of Ronghou Mansion should be anxious to get rid of the first lady! In less than a year, Su Xiyue's family will be recognized back in Ronghou Mansion. ] Su Yun thought silently.
