In the blink of an eye, it was the middle of September. Wang Cuizhi and Su Changsheng had agreed to move the day before the Mid-Autumn Festival.

The new house was almost cleaned up. Xu Fengqiao went to take a look a few times and even accompanied Wang Cuizhi to the town to buy some things.

By the day of the move, the kids had gone to school, and a few adults had stayed home and moved.

Wang Cuizhi and Zhao Yan did not have many things. The three adults walked back and forth a few times before they were done.

After moving, Su Changsheng looked at their empty courtyard thoughtfully.

“Cuizhi, you said that you want to raise chickens in the courtyard. Do you want me to buy them for you?”

Wang Cuizhi was a little embarrassed. “How can I do that? Why don’t you tell me where it is? I’ll go myself.”

Su Changsheng seemed to be a little dissatisfied with her polite words. “We’re all neighbors. Besides, you’ve helped our family so much. Don’t refuse such a simple thing.”

Xu Fengqiao also chimed in, “That’s right. Changsheng is familiar with that person, so he can get it for cheaper.”

Speaking of which, Xu Fengqiao had previously thought of raising chickens in the courtyard. However, Su Ling treasured her flowers so much, and the courtyard was only so big. There was really no space.

Seeing this, Wang Cuizhi could only agree and give Su Changsheng the money.

Su Changsheng did not want it and only said that she could give it to him after he had bought it.

Wang Cuizhi was in a difficult position. She knew that even if he bought it back, he would not want her money.

However, this was not a small sum. She wanted to find another time to secretly give it to Xu Fengqiao.

In the evening, Xiaochun and Xiaoqiu returned. Wang Cuizhi pulled Xiaochun to a place and spoke softly.

“Xiaochun, Auntie wants to ask you a favor.”

Xiaochun was confused. He scratched his head and asked, “What is it?”

Wang Cuizhi pointed at her courtyard. “Look, my courtyard is so empty. I’m thinking of planting some flowers in the courtyard. Can you help me bring back a few packets of flower seeds tomorrow?”

Xiaochun understood what she meant and readily agreed.

He was usually in charge of buying ingredients for the restaurant, so he knew where to buy flowers.

Wang Cuizhi was very happy to see this. This time, she decisively stuffed the silver into his hand and turned to leave, not giving him a chance to refuse.

Xiaochun scratched his head, still in a daze. When he was about to chase after her, he saw that Wang Cuizhi had already returned to the kitchen and was blinking at him.

So at the table, he held back his voice.

Su Ling was a little distracted during the meal because she knew that Wang Cuizhi and Zhao Yan would be returning to her house tonight and would not eat with them in the future.

Xu Fengqiao could tell that she was not in the right state of mind. She was usually very proactive when it came to eating. But now, she was holding her chopsticks and did not eat for a long time.

“What’s wrong with Girl? Are you feeling unwell?”

The girl shook his head, looking troubled.

Wang Cuizhi guessed her thoughts and asked gently, “Is Girl a little sad that Zhao Yan and I are moving away?”

Su Ling nodded, then quickly shook her head.

She was not a little sad. She was very sad.

Although she could still see them every day, she felt that something was different.

During this period of time, she had actually treated them as family.

Wang Cuizhi did not ask about her strange actions and only said gently, “Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival. This is the first time we’re celebrating in Ancient Tree Village. Auntie will make mooncakes for you tomorrow, okay?”
