Every time Wei Chiyu mentioned that man, he could feel a bloodthirsty hatred in him.

He didn’t even want to call him his father. It was obvious how much he hated him.

Zhou Xiaoli was not good at comforting people, so she reached out and held Wei Chiyu’s hand instead.

Feeling the warmth on his hand, the bloodthirsty hatred in Wei Chiyu’s eyes gradually subsided.

Zhou Xiaoli apologized, “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have asked you this at this time.”

Wei Chiyu held Zhou Xiaoli’s hand and said seriously, “Never say those three words to me.”

Zhou Xiaoli raised her head and looked at Wei Chiyu. For a moment, things seemed heated.

Just as the two of them seemed to be looking at each other with affection, a string of firecrackers suddenly went off which instantly woke the two of them up from their trance.

Zhou Xiaoli instantly withdrew her hand.

“Well, it’s midnight. I’m going to make a wish for my parents!”

With that, she pressed her palms together and made a wish.

After a while, Zhou Xiaoli opened her eyes and heard Wei Chiyu ask, “What wish did you make?”

Zhou Xiaoli smiled. “I can’t tell you. It won’t work if I tell you.”

Wei Chiyu smiled and sighed. “I don’t know what else I can do for my mother.”

Zhou Xiaoli pursed her lips. “I know what you can do for your mother.”

Wei Chiyu was stunned and looked at Zhou Xiaoli, “What?”

Zhou Xiaoli: “Live happily! This must be what your mother wants you to do for her the most.”

“I understand.” Wei Chiyu’s eyes were deep. “Li’er, thank you.”

Zhou Xiaoli laughed heartily and punched Wei Chiyu’s shoulder. “What are you thanking me for? We’re friends!”

As soon as she finished speaking, a strong gust of wind blew over, carrying with it powder snow. Zhou Xiaoli immediately shivered and retracted her hand to put it into her warm sleeve pouch.

“Aiyaya, it’s so cold. I can’t take it anymore. I miss the warm bed!”

With that, she ran home.

After the Spring Festival, Zhang Lan brought Zhou Xiaoli to visit others.

She first went to the village chief’s house, then to the Liu family.

When they returned home, they saw that many families had visited their family.

Most of them were from the same village and had a good relationship with their family.

Lin Xiujuan and the village chief’s wife also came with their sons and daughters.

Liu Liangcai and the village chief each brought a pot of wine to drink with Zhou

Everyone was happy.

At this moment, someone started talking about the Zhou family’s prosperity.

“Aiya, Brother Zhou, your family is rich now. When can you bring us along on the ride!”

Zhou Yu laughed out loud. “Of course, we can do it together next year!”

Instantly, everyone became excited.

“Really? What good business did Brother Zhou have to share?”

Zhou Yu looked at Zhou Xiaoli and laughed. “It’s like this. The three families were doing the sugar business together.”

“Now, the three of us have come up with a plan. We want to expand our business and when spring comes, we’ll prepare to build a sugar factory in the village. You can plant beetroots on whichever land that you have at home!”

“Our family will accept it all. Moreover, after you’re done farming, you can come to our sugar factory to work. Salary will be calculated at 40 copper coins a day!”

Everyone’s eyes lit up.

“That’s good. My family has three acres of poor farmland which I can’t grow any food on. If I don’t plant anything, it’ll be a waste of the land. I’ll plant beetroots on it all as soon as spring comes!”

“Me too. Me too.”

The men drank and chatted. The women sat on the warm bed and chatted. The naughty children played in the courtyard.

Lin Xiujuan’s family celebrated a prosperous new year this year with a smile on their faces.

She looked at the children playing in the courtyard and smiled.

“I’ve discussed it with my man. I’ll send Brother Feng to a private school in spring.”

Zhang Lan: “That’s a good thing!”

When they talked about the private school, someone thought of something and said in a mysterious voice.

“Hey, did you guys know? Madam Lai’s two grandsons have dropped out of school!”

Lin Xiujuan was surprised. “Really? Why haven’t I heard of it?”

The old woman continued, “It happened a few days ago. I heard that their family ran out of money. Their family quarreled every day and it was chaotic. I lived next door to their house and was so annoyed by the noise.”

Zhou Xiaoli was peeling peanuts then, but her heart was as clear as a mirror.

Although she had changed the formation she set up in the old Zhou family’s courtyard to a weak Feng Shui formation, living in that formation for a long time could also make them lose money and cause chaos in their homes. Even with this outcome, Zhou Xiaoli’s heart did not soften at all.

This was all their own doing and they deserved it!

After the Spring Festival, it would be the Lantern Festival. Unfortunately, since they live in the village, they would not be able to see the pretty sights.

Just as Zhou Xiaoli was feeling regretful, Big Sister Zhang arrived with Little

Zhou Xiaoli immediately welcomed her warmly into the house.

“Come, let me hug Little An and see if he’s gained weight.”

Zhang Yan was all smiles. “Brother An, this is Aunt Zhou. When you grow up, you have to be filial to Aunt Zhou.”

Zhou Xiaoli could not help but laugh. “How old is Brother An? How can he understand words right now?”

Zhang Yan smiled. “Of course he can understand, right, Brother An?”

As if he really understood, Little An actually started babbling.

Such a cute baby.

Zhou Xiaoli did not even want to let go of him.

Zhang Yan laughed at her. “Oh right, I’m here to bring you to my house today. There are fireworks in the prefecture city tonight.” Finally, she added.

“Take Wei Chiyu with you and let him protect you.”

Zhou Xiaoli rolled her eyes at her. “I’m a strong girl. Do I look like I need protection?”

“I think so.”

At this moment, Wei Chiyu came out of nowhere and spoke slowly.

Zhou Xiaoli was speechless. “You should not have eavesdropped on my conversation with Sister Zhang.”

However, in the end, Wei Chiyu still followed them.

As Zhang Lan was worried, she insisted on Wei Chiyu following them.

When they arrived at the prefecture city, the sky had just turned dark. They went to the Zhao Residence for a meal before heading to the streets.

Zhou Xiaoli did not expect the Lantern Festival in ancient times to be so lively.

There were lantern riddles, acrobatics, and rows of red lanterns on the street. They were extremely beautiful.

When it was time, there was an explosion and fireworks bloomed.

It was not as beautiful and colorful as what she had seen in her previous life. However, for some reason, she felt that this was the most beautiful fireworks she had ever seen!

“I heard that Lingyun Pavilion is a good place to watch fireworks. Shall I take you there?”

Wei Chiyu suddenly said.

Zhou Xiaoli could not help but nod. “Alright!”

“Sister Zhang, let’s go to Lingyun Pavilion!”

Zhang Yan rolled her eyes and said regretfully, “Aiya, that might not be possible. I have to go back and feed my husband his medicine. You guys go ahead. I’ll look for you guys later!”

After saying that, she pulled her maidservant backwards with her and said regretfully, “Aiyaya, that husband of mine is very pretentious. He won’t drink his medicine if I’m not the one feeding him it!”

When they were far away, the two of them immediately hid and secretly looked at Zhou Xiaoli.

“Hey, Chun Tao, how was my acting? Isn’t it good?”

Chun Tao looked helpless.. “My lady, madam, you’re so convincing!”
