Parents are busy farming

Before Chen Lixing could say anything else, Magistrate Su arrived.

"It's already noon, let's go back and eat!"

Ye Zifen checked that it was indeed getting late, so she stood up and walked out.

When the others saw that Ye Zifen was gone, they also stood up and walked out. They did not forget to put the various drawings in a safer place before leaving.

These drawings all record the dimensions they are currently working on. If they make a mistake, they have to start from scratch.

Don't wait until three days have passed and everyone else has done well, but you are the only one who can't do it well. It will be embarrassing and no one will accompany you.

Su Jincheng and Ye Zifen walked back to the back office.

"I heard that you are interested in a piece of land at the dock and want to use it to build ships?"

Ye Zifen glanced sideways at his godbrother and said, "You are very well-informed, and you actually got the news."

"You're laughing at me because I had something to do today to see the clerk. I happened to overhear a colleague chatting with the clerk, telling him to prepare the contract and you can use the money to buy the land tomorrow."

Magistrate Su specifically explained that it was not that he was too busy or that he was popular, it was just a coincidence.

Zi Zifen kept listening with a smile, and suddenly she sighed with emotion for some reason: "It feels like time is going so fast, but it also feels like time is going so slow!"

"How do you say that?" Magistrate Su was also curious as to why Ye Zifen had such emotion.

Ye Zifen explained: "I feel that time goes by so fast because I have to face one problem after another before I am ready. I feel that time goes by so slowly because I already have ideas, but because of various external factors, I feel that time goes by so slowly." The conditions are not good enough to start the next step, so I’m a little anxious.”

"I see. In fact, the only thing we can do is to do the right thing right now. As for the rest, it really depends on God's arrangements. Aren't you always very transparent? How can you still get into trouble by yourself?"

Ye Zifen glanced into the distance and said: "It's not that I'm trying to get something wrong, but sometimes I'm just too whimsical and want to achieve it overnight."

After hearing Ye Zi Fengfen's self-deprecating words, Su Jincheng suddenly stood up and said, "You don't need to be in such a hurry. Take your time. Even if you slow down, nothing will happen."

Ye Zifen shook his head and said he had no problem.

"The ground is about to thaw. Our county has basically not had any water replenishment since last winter!"

Su Jincheng nodded, he knew what Ye Zifen wanted to say.

"Don't worry. People know the priority of the matter and will dig all these ditches as soon as possible. After the ditches are dug, the water from the canal can nourish our entire county."

Ye Zifen only said four words: "I hope so!"

The two of them had already reached the door of Mrs. Su's courtyard. The maid who was looking at the door immediately lifted the curtain and announced inside.

Ye Zifen and Magistrate Su stopped talking and quickly walked a few steps towards the house.

"Girl, you've been gone for such a long time, and it's still so cold. Do you know how worried we are about you?" Mrs. Su kept holding on to Ye Zifen's hand, with disapproval on her face.

Instead, Ye Zifen smiled and asked the maid next to her: "I asked Fu Ke to deliver fish today, did they deliver it?"

The girl nodded quickly, "It has been delivered, and the fish is very big. The kitchen is already cooking it."

At this time, Ye Zifen said to Mrs. Su: "Godmother, try that fish later. It was caught by our own boat. It is very big and the meat is particularly delicious."

Madam Su sighed heavily, "Isn't that why you set off so early because of the fishing boat?"

Although it was a guessing tone, for some reason, Ye Zifen heard a definite answer from it.

Before Ye Zifen could say anything, Mrs. Su added, "It's a good thing to be able to eat fish, but my godmother still wants to tell you that nothing is more important than your health!"

Ye Zifen ignored the presence of Magistrate Su, gently leaned into Mrs. Su's arms and said with a smile: "I know everyone is caring about me, how could I let something happen to me? I am very careful on the road."

"Alas, your child is still young and cannot understand the feeling of being an elder. Although children and parents are always gradually separated, we still can't bear to see you suffer!"

Ye Zifen came out of Mrs. Su's arms and said with a smile: "But we don't think it's hard work. We can see our ideas come true. The unprecedented sense of accomplishment makes us very satisfied!"

Mrs. Su didn't say anything, she just patted Ye Zifen's hand. She was once young, so she naturally understood the ambition.

"You guys go and see if the food is ready? If it's ready, bring it over and eat it in my room!" Mrs. Su knew that there was no way to change the children's minds, so she had no choice but to urge the maid to serve the food.

Where no one could see, Ye Zifen stuck out his tongue.

However, this scene happened to be seen by Magistrate Su, and he felt that the girl had become naughty again.

The food was served soon, but Ye Zifen found an unusual dish on the table, a soup made with cordyceps.

"The quality of this cordyceps is good. Where did my godmother get it?"

Since Mrs. Su served this dish, she must not be afraid of Ye Zifen's questions.

Zi Zifen is also sensible. If the other party treats her with such good things, of course she has to ask.

Mrs. Su laughed when she heard this and said to Ye Zifen, "Guess!"

While letting Ye Zifen guess, she actually glanced at Magistrate Su.

What is there that you don’t understand? Ye Zifen asked: “But my future sister-in-law sent it to you?”

When Ye Zifen answered, she also looked at Magistrate Su with teasing eyes.

Magistrate Su touched his nose and pretended to cough.

"Our Zifen is smart enough to guess right. It was the child who brought it to me. I don't know what to give as a thank you gift yet. I just thought that when you come, the two of us will go to the warehouse to take a look. Look, find something to give her as a gift in return."

After hearing Mrs. Su's words, Ye Zifen smiled and praised: "You are always blessed. My wife here has started to respect you even before she got married!"

"Don't envy me. The child also prepared a gift for you, but you were not at home, so I didn't ask anyone to send it to you. I thought you would always come to see me when you came back, so I just took it with me today."

After Mrs. Su finished speaking, she looked back at the maid behind her.

The maid immediately understood, walked into Mrs. Su's bedroom, and came out soon holding a box.

Just as Ye Zifen lowered his head and took a sip of the soup, he saw the maid walking to his side and gently opening the lid of the box.

A pair of crimson agate bracelets were revealed. Just from the color, you could tell that they were valuable.

After Ye Zifen swallowed the mouthful of soup in her mouth, she sighed: "My future sister-in-law is a bit generous. As a younger sister, I don't even know what to give in return!"

Ye Zifen showed a fond expression at the right time.
