On the night of New Year’s Eve, the sound of firecrackers can be heard at the foot of the mountain, while 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 would pass by outside, glance at him through the window, and then look 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 Excellency, 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. The younger generation rarely sees 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 sure to pay attention."

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

 Putting down the tea, Grandma Qin is 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 startled, nodded twice with difficulty, and then asked: "What's wrong, madam? 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. As a girl, she felt a lot of energy in her heart.”

“I feel that if I find my biological parents, I won’t be bullied anymore. 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 death comes. I think Ning Ning doesn't say anything, but she is still in pain in her heart."

 “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. I am old and I don’t have a few years to spend with her.”

“If I pass away one day, I’m afraid that 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 up his robe and knelt down. Grandma Qin was startled and she stretched out her hand to help her: "Prime Minister, this can't be done. Get up quickly."

Xie Su couldn't help but kowtow to Grandma Qin.

 His eyes were slightly red, revealing complicated 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 treat me as your son. From now on, I will be filial to my mother and love my daughter. If I disobey, I 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 you, sir, and you must never swear. Ning Ning will have to rely on you to take care of her when she grows up.”

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 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.

 She was surrounded by wolves.

 Everyone stayed with her and she slept soundly. Xie Suzhi looked at Shen Ningning's exposed little hands, as if flapping butterflies in a dream, scratching at 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, without saying anything, 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 come and 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's obviously the Black Wolf King who is stingy.

 Suddenly, a sneer came from the side.

"What are you doing here?" Mo Lingwei's black hair was spread out, showing the dignity of a 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 and his son slightly opened their eyes towards him.

 The prince has been here several times?

No wonder the Black Wolf King is annoyed.

 After the New Year, there were two heavy snowfalls.

 Although the National Preceptor said there would be no snow disasters 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 there was bright sunshine.

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

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

 There are more people selling cotton-padded clothes, quilts, and various cold-proof equipment on the street.

 The 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, it was March in Yangchun.

 It’s not snowing anymore, but the weather hasn’t warmed up yet.

 More and more people are selling winter supplies.

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

“Oh, why is the famous lucky girl silent now? Isn’t there a snowstorm? What about natural disasters? Where are they?”

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