Dressed as a vicious stepmother, farming and raising cubs

As soon as he finished speaking, cheers and applause erupted from the audience.

Su Liu and Shen Luochen also smiled and applauded Da Wa in perfect agreement, and the host immediately announced that the answer was correct.

In the final count, the Su Liu family guessed the most lantern riddles correctly. In addition to getting an exquisitely crafted dragon and phoenix lantern, they also got some precious medicinal materials.

Su Liu secretly rejoiced in her heart and felt very happy. With these medicinal materials, she could exchange for many things from the military supply market.

After the lantern riddle guessing session was over, the family was not in a hurry to go home, but went shopping again.

Su Liu bought candied haws for each child and held up a bunch herself. She liked eating this sour and sweet thing very much.

Only Shen Luochen is not very gregarious, saying that he doesn't like to eat these things that children like.

While walking around, suddenly an old woman reached out and grabbed Shen Luochen's sleeve.

"Young man, bring your family to the lantern festival."

Several people stopped and looked towards the source of the sound. It turned out that the old lady was setting up a stall here. There were some knotted handicrafts on the stall behind her, which looked very delicate.

Shen Luochen didn't speak, just nodded.

"Hey, young man, buy a concentric knot for your wife. It means a happy marriage for a hundred years. Your wife will definitely like it."

The old woman picked up a hanging ornament with two knots connected from her stall, with tassels hanging from the bottom, and a small jade pendant on top, which was very beautiful.

Su Liu felt a little embarrassed. After all, he and Shen Luochen were not a real couple, and it was too strange to buy such a thing.

She originally thought that Shen Luochen must have the same idea, so she waved her hand, and when she was about to refuse, she heard him say:

"how much is this?"

When the old woman saw this, she immediately introduced her enthusiastically.

"It's not expensive, it only costs two hundred cents. I beat it with my own hands. The top is made of chalcedony."

After hearing this, Shen Luochen actually took out the wallet in his arms and prepared to pay.

Su Liu hurriedly pulled his sleeve from underneath and winked at him secretly. What happened today? He actually wanted to buy such a thing.

However, Shen Luochen didn't seem to feel it and still paid.

The old woman almost burst into laughter. After taking the money, she put the concentric knot into Su Liu's hand, winked at her and said:

"Girl, you are so lucky that your husband loves you so much."

Su Liu laughed awkwardly twice, without saying anything, and quickly took the dolls away.

However, the concentric knot is indeed very finely made and the style is beautiful. I just use it as a decoration and hang it up.

When I went home at night, the sky was actually filled with white stars.

"It's snowing!" Su Liu raised his head and said in surprise.

The snow was still light and sporadic at first, but gradually turned into heavy snow. Large flakes of snowflakes danced in the air, and soon a thin layer of snow accumulated on the ground.

"Let's go back and build snowmen!" Several children also cheered and ran impatiently, wanting to get home early.

"Hey! Slow down! Don't fall!"

Su Liu hurriedly caught up with them. Seeing that the children couldn't stop shouting, they started running after them.

Shen Luochen followed a few people, with a faint smile on his lips. He reached out and took off the mask from his face, put it in his hand and looked at it for a while, not knowing what he was thinking.

As soon as they entered the yard, the children seemed to be unaware of the cold and actually reached out to dig out the snow on the ground.Seeing this, Su Liu hurriedly ran to the house, took out gloves, and put them on several dolls.

The dolls rolled a snowball, placed it on the ground, and started rolling it in circles until a big snowball rolled out to make the snowman's head.I swept some more snow and gathered it into a pile to make a snowman's body.

After some more assembly, a round and chubby snowman is made. Black pebbles are used as eyes, making it look very vivid.

Su Liu also participated in the whole process, and he seemed to have returned to his childhood.

The few of them played very late, and when they returned to the room, Shen Luochen had already gone to bed.

In order to avoid waking him up, Su Liu gently lay down next to him. She was now used to the two of them living in the same room, so she quickly fell asleep.

Early the next morning, as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw that Shen Luochen was fully dressed and looked like he was about to go out.

"Wait, where are you going?" Su Liu stopped him.

Shen Luochen seemed not to expect that she would wake up. He turned around and explained:

"There are some things that I have to deal with. I may come back in a few days."

Su Liu got up from the bed, a little dissatisfied with his intention to leave without saying goodbye, and pouted and said:
"Then you should say it in advance. Your injury is healed and we won't stop you."

Shen Luochen lowered his head with no expression on his face:
"Nineteen stays here, he will tell you."

Su Liu had spent so much time with him, and had already understood his behavior pattern, and knew that he seemed calm now, but in fact he was feeling guilty.

So she sighed softly, waved her hands, and said:

"That's all, go ahead, just be sure to pay attention to safety this time."

After all, she didn't want to take care of a wounded person for another two or three months.

Shen Luochen left again, and only Su Liu and the child were left at home again. Taking this opportunity, she simply moved back to her room.

Before, she heard a new way to attract customers from Boss Jia.

Yuelaiju's dishes are very famous in Yucheng, and there are many wealthy families in the city, so Boss Jia launched a private custom banquet service, where his chef would go to other people's homes and personally prepare the banquet.

This method also quickly became popular among the wealthy people in Yucheng, because you don’t have to go out in person, you can still taste the first-class quality at home, and it is very honorable to entertain guests.

Su Liu was also inspired and followed suit and launched a similar package.

But hers is different from Yuelaiju. It incorporates many modern dishes and is paired with Xinliuzhai's dim sum, which can be said to be unique.

However, perhaps because she is not as well-known as Boss Jia and Yuelaiju, the private customization in her shop has not developed.

It wasn't until this day that Uncle Zhang, the housekeeper of Prince Xian's Mansion, came to her door that she remembered that she still had such a business.

Uncle Zhang came to the store to find her. At that time, she was researching new medicinal foods.

"January 21st will be January [-]st in two days. My eldest son hopes that you can prepare a banquet. There are no specified dishes. Miss Su can do whatever she wants."

As soon as he walked in, he simply explained his purpose.

Su Liu put down the goods in his hands and pointed to himself in disbelief: "Me?"

She didn't expect that the first time she opened the store, it would be a heavyweight customer like Prince Xian's Mansion. You should know that most of the customers Yuelaiju received were just ordinary rich people.
