On New Year's Eve, the sound of firecrackers below the mountain is endless, and the house on the mountain is quiet and warm.

Xie Suzhi sat by the window of the guest room, watching the light snow falling in the yard.

After the fun of keeping the New Year's Eve together, everyone went back to their houses to rest.

Only Xie Suzhi couldn't sleep, looking at the outline of the mountains hidden in the snowy night in the distance, and the red lantern under the dark corridor was like a tall tower in the ocean.

Guide the lost people home.

From time to time, a patrolling black wolf passed by outside, glanced at him through the window, and then looked back coldly.

These beasts that grow in the mountains absolutely don't like to deal with people.

But for Shen Ningning, they also became humane.

Xie Suzhi covered his heart and coughed lightly.

At this moment, a kind and old question came from the door: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister, haven't you rested yet?"

Xie Suzhi quickly stood up, opened the door, and welcomed in Grandma Qin who had just woken up from the night.

"No, I saw it was snowing outside and the whole yard was quiet and peaceful. It's rare for juniors to see such a comfortable and comfortable scene, so I couldn't help but look at it for a while."

Grandma Qin walked in with a smile and put a pot of hot tea on the table.

She reminded: "It's cold at night, be careful to catch a cold. I heard you cough just now, so be careful."

Xie Suzhi nodded in agreement and supported Grandma Qin like he was taking care of his own mother.

Putting down the tea, Grandma Qin was about to leave.

As soon as he arrived at the door, the old man seemed to remember something.

She turned around and asked, "Prime Minister, please don't blame the old woman for talking too much."

"There's one thing I've always wanted to ask you privately. Are Ning Ning's parents... really missing?"

Xie Suzhi looked slightly stunned, nodded twice with difficulty, and then asked: "What's wrong, old lady? Why do you ask this suddenly."

Grandma Qin shook her head and sighed: "It's nothing, I just feel sorry for Ning Ning."

"In the past, when Wang Guihong was still alive, she beat Ning Ning almost to death. This girl, she was holding back a lot of energy in her heart."

"I feel that if I find my biological parents, I will no longer be bullied. I also use this to encourage her from time to time and give her the motivation and courage to live."

"But now, she is looking for her parents who are waiting for her, but only the news of her death comes. I think Ning Ning is still suffering in her heart even though she doesn't say anything."

"This child is sensitive and kind. No matter how much sadness he has, he keeps it in his heart."

"Now that I see her growing up and living, I am both happy and worried. As an old lady, I don't have a few years to spend with her."

"If I pass away one day, I'm afraid she will feel that her last concern in the world is gone. So, Prime Minister, I beg you, if one day I..."

Xie Suzhi hurriedly interrupted: "Old madam, don't say that. You have a strong body and will definitely live a long life."

As he spoke, he lifted his robe and knelt down. Grandma Qin was startled and she reached out to help her: "Prime Minister, this is impossible. Get up quickly."

Xie Suzhi couldn't help but kowtowed to Grandma Qin a few times.

His eyes were slightly red, showing mixed emotions.

"Ning Ning is destined to our Xie family. She will be my daughter from now on. I will protect her and love her like a father."

"You can even treat this junior as your son. From now on, this junior will be filial to his mother and love his daughter. If he violates this, he will be struck by lightning and die!"

Grandma Qin pulled him up in fear: "Bah, bah, bah, it's the Chinese New Year. Who will die?"

"I believe my lord, you must never swear. When Ning Ning grows up, you will have to take care of her."

Xie Suzhi knew that Grandma Qin was worried about Shen Ningning. The old man had little ability and only hoped to get the Xie family's promise.

But Grandma Qin didn't know that Xie Suzhi would take good care of Ning Ning even if he risked his life.

After seeing off Grandma Qin, Xie Suzhi couldn't help but go out and walked lightly to the door of Shen Ningning's room.

The little one's house is the warmest, and her windows should be opened just a crack, so that she won't be stifled by the heat and can sleep comfortably.

At this moment, through the window, Xie Suzhi saw the little guy lying on the bed, sleeping soundly.

There were wolves lying around her.

Everyone watched over her and slept soundly.Xie Suzhi looked at Shen Ningning's exposed little hands, as if flapping butterflies in a dream, grabbing the air from time to time.

As he looked at it, he couldn't help but smile fondly.

Sudden.

A huge wolf head emerged from inside.

The Black Wolf King propped his forelimbs on the table and glared at Xie Suzhi through the window.

It looked at him coldly, said nothing, and closed the half-open window with its head.

"boom."

Xie Suzhi:...

Why is this wolf so angry?
"Father?" Xie Mingxu called in a low voice from behind: "Why are you here?"

Xie Suzhi turned around and saw that Xie Mingxu was not sleeping either and was walking in this direction.

He coughed lightly: "I couldn't sleep, so I wanted to see if Ning Ning was asleep, but the Black Wolf King closed the window."

Xie Mingxu hesitated for a moment and sighed silently.

"It's all my father's fault. Otherwise, I would still be able to see Ning Ning through the window."

Xie Suzhi:...

It was obviously the Black Wolf King who was stingy.

Suddenly, a sneer came from the side.

"What are you doing gathering here?" Mo Lingwei's black hair was scattered, showing the nobility of a jade gentleman.

He walked to the window and saw the closed window, and his smile disappeared.

"Why did you close the window? Wasn't it still open just now?"

After Mo Lingwei finished speaking, the Xie family's father and son slightly opened their eyes at him.

The prince has been here several times?

No wonder the Black Wolf King was annoyed.

After the New Year, there were two heavy snowfalls.

Although the National Master said there would be no snowstorms in winter, some people still decided to believe what Fu Nu said.

They were waiting with supplies in hand, wondering how long the snow would last.

Unexpectedly, just after January, the snow stopped and the bright sunshine emerged.

The seasons change, like winter gradually disappearing, the grass on the ground sprouts, revealing patches of new green.

The rotation of floating clouds, sun and moon finally brings the arrival of spring.

More people began to sell cotton-padded clothes, quilts, and various cold-proof equipment on the street.

Normally expensive fox furs, bear skins and mink coats are all sold at the cheapest prices.

Mo Lingwei pocketed them all and then threw them into the warehouse for Shen Ningning to store.

The Xie family didn't stop collecting wood. After knowing that the little guy's attitude had not changed, they kept buying dead wood.

And Shen Ningning was never idle. When she had time, she went to her granary and put the wet wood she bought one by one into the fairyland to bask in the sun.

Soon, March came.

It's not snowing anymore, but the weather isn't getting warm yet.

More and more people are hawking winter supplies.

Wang Qiaoer led people several times to yell and laugh at Xiangyun Village.

"Oh, why is the famous lucky girl not talking now? Isn't there a snow disaster? Where is the natural disaster? Where is it?"

"It's already March, and the willow branches have sprouted. What else can you say? These fools in Xiangyun Village have been defrauded of a lot of money by you, right?"
