After a while, the family arrived at the county town to join the bustling Mid-Autumn Festival Lantern Parade. The streets were adorned with vibrant lanterns of different shapes and sizes, creating a festive and lively atmosphere.
Wang Jinhe, Su Xuan Xuan, and others who were not familiar with such celebrations marveled at the colorful and intricate lanterns that adorned the streets.
“Wow, it’s so beautiful! Look at those lanterns, they’re like works of art!” Su Xuan Xuan exclaimed, her eyes wide open with excitement.
Wang Jinhe was equally impressed. “I’ve never seen such a lively lantern festival. It’s truly spectacular.”
Su Jiu, walking beside Su Yu, couldn’t help but appreciate the vibrant scene. “It’s amazing how they’ve decorated the whole town. The lanterns are exquisite.”
Su Jiu couldn’t help but laugh as she watched Su Yu generously distribute money: “You’re losing quite a bit today.”
“It doesn’t matter,” Su Yu replied nonchalantly.
Su Jiu couldn’t help but feel curious, “I suddenly want to know how much is in your little treasury, Xiao Yu?”
Su Yu looked at Su Jiu warily, “Why do you want to know about that? Don’t think about touching my little treasury; it’s for supporting my wife and children.”
Su Jiu couldn’t help but laugh, “Why be so possessive? Don’t worry, your big brother won’t covet it.”
“I’m not worried. Covet it? Does he still want the annual share of profits or wants me to help him make money?” Su Yu replied disdainfully.
The conversation revealed the unique dynamic between the two brothers.
Ignoring the banter, Su Yu led the group to enjoy the lantern festival, appreciating the festive atmosphere and the joy of family gathering.
Later, they returned to the new residence for a rest before planning to explore the town more thoroughly.
“Xiao Zhi, do you want your parents to take you out to play today? After that, your parents have something to do and may not be able to visit you for a while. You have to listen to your godfather and godmother at home, okay? We’ll come to see you as soon as we’re done with our tasks,” Gu Jing said, negotiating with Xiao Zhi.
Zhang ZhiLin nodded, “Okay.”
Since Zhang Zhi Lin agreed, Xiao Bao could only follow Su Yu and the others outside.
The remaining people each went their own way to play and didn’t feel bored or distant from each other.
Su Yu held Xiao Bao in one hand and held Wang Jin He’s hand in the other, leading the family of three outside.
After lunch, the streets gradually became lively.
Xiao Bao had never seen these things before and looked around with curiosity.
Seeing Xiao Bao’s cute appearance, Wang Jinhe couldn’t help but smile, “Let’s take Xiao Bao out more in the future.”
“Sure, how about going out with me at the end of this year?” Su Yu asked Wang Jinhe.
“If we go out, we have to bring the two kids with us.” It wouldn’t be right to take Xiao Bao and not take Xiao Zhi.
“Bringing them is not a problem. By then, Yuan Bao and the others will be there to help take care of them. How about accompanying me to inspect the industry? If we go, we can start preparing for the things over there once the winery is ready. Let’s go in October and come back in the twelfth month.” Su Yu looked at Wang Jin He and asked.
Wang Jin He thought about it and didn’t want to go, “It’s troublesome to brew with you.”
“What’s the trouble? After today, we’ll take a month and a half to brew, and the rest will be handed over to Dad and the others. We’ll go out in October and come back in the twelfth month.”
Wang Jin He looked at Su Yu, “You only have two months. What can you see?”
“As long as I check the local business before the New Year, it’s enough. I’ll go to distant places after the New Year. The accounts for the outside will be sent over before the New Year, and I’ll be busy.” Thinking about this year’s accounts, Su Yu felt a headache.
“How about we don’t go out this year and let Yuan Bao and the others help you with the inspection? We’ll go next year.” Wang Jin He thought for a moment and decided not to go.
Xiao Bao looked at this and that, realizing he couldn’t understand, so he went to look at things on the street, occasionally letting Su Yu buy things for him.
“That works too. Let Wangu and the others take care of it. The accounts will be sent to me, and I’ll just look at the books then,” Su Yu said, seeing that Wang Jin He didn’t want to go, so he decided not to go either.
It just so happened that there were many things to do here this year.
“Alright, things on my end have just started and can’t be left yet. After the winery starts brewing, I’ll have even more to do. Later, I’ll also have to lead the villagers in growing vegetables.” Thinking about this, Wang Jinhe felt that she had a lot on her plate, and she couldn’t manage it all.
“Do you have so many seeds? You probably haven’t harvested many seeds yet this year.”
“I’ll cultivate the seedlings myself and distribute them to them later,” Wang Jinhe considered and said.
Alternatively, she could buy some ordinary seeds, soak them in Lingquan water, and there should be some effect later.
She had experimented before. Ordinary seeds, when soaked in Lingquan water and planted, wouldn’t be affected if not diluted with Lingquan water. The only downside was slower growth. Besides that, it couldn’t nurture the body. As for taste, it was better than those not soaked in Lingquan water.
This way, all the fruits and vegetables that could nurture the body would be with her. In this way, it was even better for her.
“That works too, but you’ll be very tired. Are you okay with that?” Su Yu looked at Wang Jinhe and asked with a frown.
“No problem. It’s just helping out,” Wang Jinhe said indifferently.
“Alright.”
Listening to the conversation between the two, Xiao Bao was getting a bit dizzy. Seeing that the two were almost done talking, Xiao Bao, in his childish voice, said, “Daddy, let’s go over there.”
Su Yu looked in the direction pointed out by Xiao Bao. There were people performing acrobatics there.
With Xiao Bao and Wang Jinhe, they went over to watch the acrobatics. Xiao Bao was amazed.
“Daddy, they’re so amazing!” Xiao Bao kept clapping, his little face filled with excitement.
For Su Yu and Wang Jin He, the acrobatics were full of flaws. However, seeing Xiao Bao enjoying it, they watched with him. After watching, they also gave some money to the performers.
“Daddy, over there.” Xiao Bao pointed to somewhere not far away, asking Su Yu to go there.
Su Yu and Wang Jin He exchanged a glance, then walked over in the direction pointed out by Xiao Bao.
“Mommy, what’s this?”
“Do you like sugar paintings?”
Xiao Bao nodded continuously, “Grandpa, can you draw anything? Can you draw me, Daddy, and Mommy?”
The old man selling sugar paintings smiled and nodded, “Sure.”
While watching the family of three, the old man quickly finished the painting. Wang Jinhe was also very interested.
Not to mention, the old man’s painting was really good.
“Daddy, do I look like this?” Xiao Bao held his sugar painting to his face and asked happily.
Su Yu looked at it carefully and nodded gently, “Yeah, it really looks like you.”
After the other two paintings were done, Xiao Bao couldn’t wait to compare them to Su Yu and Wang Jin He’s faces, “They really look like us.”
