The daughter was ruthlessly driven out of the wealthy family and went to the countryside

space.

Shen Xuening brought in three grilled fish, placed them on the table, and then opened the lid of the takeout box: "Ren Xiaocan, why aren't you being as enthusiastic this time?"

Ginseng Doll didn't come over immediately. Usually, he would come over as soon as he saw Shen Xuening: "Coming right away, coming right away."

Shen Xuening set out the bowls and chopsticks: "It's freshly packed and still hot. Come and eat. This is grilled fish; it won't taste good if it gets cold."

"Coming, coming!" The ginseng doll finished its spell and ran over quickly. "Wow, it smells so good, and the spiritual energy is so rich! Where did you get this fish?"

Shen Xuening replied, "I raised them myself in the stream. I put a spirit stone in the stream, and these fish grew up nourished by the spirit stone. After I caught them, I processed them, and they tasted especially delicious."

The ginseng doll looked at Shen Xuening: "Did you eat some too?"

Shen Xuening said, "Of course we ate it, and my family members all tried it too."

The ginseng doll nodded: "Then I'll eat first, and then I'll talk to you."

"Eat up, I'll go plant some more." Ginseng Baby was busy planting sorghum, and she helped plant some too. The distillery needs a lot of sorghum, and this year's sorghum won't be ready for a while, so she'll have to fill in for now.

"Come and eat with us." The ginseng baby beckoned the two little ginsengs to eat grilled fish, still remembering their contributions.

Shen Xuening was planting sorghum very diligently, so time passed quickly. Before she knew it, Ginseng Baby's voice came over: "Have you been very busy lately?"

"I'm very busy," Shen Xuening said. "There are too many things to do, I can't keep up. Zizhou will send me the betrothal gifts the day after tomorrow, so I'll be even busier."

"Sending betrothal gifts? You're getting married?" the ginseng doll exclaimed in surprise.

Shen Xuening said sincerely, "Yes, I came in tonight to ask you if you want to come over for dinner the day after tomorrow?"

The ginseng doll walked towards Shen Xuening, looked up at her and said, "Of course I'm coming. I can skip other days, but I definitely have to attend such an important one."

Shen Xuening reached out and patted the ginseng doll's head: "Then I'll save a spot for you."

The ginseng doll raised its eyebrows: "Absolutely."

Shen Xuening said, "Alright, I won't bother you anymore. I mainly came in to talk to you about this. I'll release you tomorrow morning."

The ginseng baby agreed: "Okay."

Shen Xuening left.

The ginseng doll sat on the rock, resting its chin on one hand: "So much time has passed without me realizing it. Xue Ning is getting married soon. Will I ever see little Xue Ning again?"

Ren Xiaodong and Ren Xiaoxi walked over together and squatted down in front of the ginseng doll.

Ren Xiaodong's eyes sparkled with curiosity: "Boss, can you bring us some good food after you go out?"

Ren Xiaoxi was also full of anticipation.

"Of course we'll bring you some, no doubt about it," the ginseng doll lectured. "But you can't just think about eating; you need to think more about cultivation. Do you understand cultivation?"

Ren Xiaodong immediately replied, "We understand. Isn't it because we'll start cultivating after we're done with our work?"

"Good boy." The ginseng doll patted Ren Xiaodong's head. "Don't worry, I will definitely not forget you. I will buy you clothes, shoes, and all kinds of fun things."

Ren Xiaoxi then asked a question: "Boss, do you have money?"

The ginseng doll immediately stammered, "Someone will give me money."

Ren Xiaodong and Ren Xiaoxi exchanged a glance. They still trusted their boss, so they said nothing more and just waited for him to bring them the gifts.

The ginseng baby got up and stretched: "Let's get to work, do more work, and have a good rest tomorrow and the day after."

The three ginseng babies quickly got busy.

……

Shen Xuening came out of her room and went to the study. Seeing that the living room light was on, she went downstairs to check on her: "Wenxu, you're still awake?"

Shen Wenxu was still sitting there preparing the wedding candy wrapping. The young boy had great patience. After hearing Shen Xuening's voice, he turned around and asked, "Sister, why did you come down?"

Shen Xuening walked over and said, "I wasn't planning on coming down, but I came down because I saw the lights were on. It's almost ten o'clock. I'll do it tomorrow."

Shen Wenxu shook his head: "No, I need to prepare. I'll go to sleep at eleven o'clock. Anyway, I don't have school tomorrow."

Shen Xuening patted Shen Wenxu on the shoulder: "There's still time tomorrow, go to sleep."

"Sister, I can't sleep." Shen Wenxu sighed. "The thought of you getting married makes me so sad. How can I sleep?"

Shen Xuening comforted her, "Even after I get married, I still live at home, so don't worry."

Shen Wenxu's eyes lit up: "Really?"

Shen Xuening chuckled: "Really? My sister's business is here, so she must live here permanently. You can still see her every day, so there's no need to feel reluctant."

Shen Wenxu was overjoyed: "That's good, that's good. If you go to City A, it will be so difficult to see you."

Shen Xuening said, "No, but I'll probably be going to two places."

Shen Wenxu said with heartache, "Sister, you've worked so hard."

Shen Xuening feels that her current life is already ideal: "This is life."

Shen Wenxu patted his chest and said resolutely, "Sister, I will help you when I grow up, and then you won't have to work so hard."

Shen Xuening smiled and nodded: "Okay, I'll wait for you to grow up and help me."

Shen Wenxu said, "Sister, you go ahead and do your thing. I'll go back to my room to sleep at eleven o'clock."

Shen Xuening was worried: "You're so young, you shouldn't stay up late."

“It’s okay if it happens once in a while.” Shen Wenxu gently pushed Shen Xuening toward the stairs. “Sister, hurry up and go up. I can finish faster by myself.”

"Alright, alright, I'll go upstairs." Shen Xuening sighed and went upstairs, turning back to look at herself every step of the way.

Shen Wenxu sat back down on the sofa and started wrapping the wedding candies. He was determined to do his best to handle his sister's affairs properly.

……

June 5th.

Early in the morning, Madam Wei and Madam Lin arrived at the Shen family home hand in hand.

Grandma Shen greeted the two women with delight, saying, "Gentlemen, what brings you here?"

Madam Wei said with a smile, "We're here to help you. How could we stand idly by when it's such a big deal as an engagement?"

Grandma Shen smiled happily and said, "It's just the betrothal gifts being sent over, it's not an engagement yet."

Madam Wei waved her hand. She knew these things better than Grandma Shen: "Once the betrothal gifts are sent, the engagement will be soon. It's about time."

Grandma Shen smiled and said, "Then thank you both for your help."

Madam Wei said, "Of course, of course. We also treat Xue Ning like our granddaughter. Now that she's engaged, we naturally want to do our part."

Madam Lin also said, "Xue Ning has been so good to us. Now that she finally has a chance to help us, we naturally want to lend a hand."

"Thank you so much." Grandma Shen stopped refusing. To be honest, she didn't have much experience either, and with their help, everything would be perfect.

The Shen family members have already assigned their respective responsibilities, and now everyone is getting ready.

At eight o'clock, the three chefs that Shen Xuening had hired drove over. Shen Xuening led them into her home and said, "You can prepare here. If you need anything, just call my mom, Liu Juan. We need to prepare a total of thirty tables of food, with twenty-four dishes per table. Any questions?"

The head chef said confidently, "There's definitely no problem, otherwise why would we dare to accept the order?"

Shen Xuening smiled and said, "Then I'll have to trouble you."

"Of course." The chefs said nothing more, took out the knives and other supplies they had brought, and began preparing for tomorrow's banquet.

Shen Xuening's task was to make arrangements for the next two days in advance, otherwise she would be too busy with work to attend her engagement ceremony.

The betrothal ceremony is the first step in the engagement, so it can be considered an engagement. However, the formal engagement ceremony will be held in City A, mainly by the Qin family.

Engagement can also involve some business activities, killing several birds with one stone. Shen Xuening doesn't mind, since it's not a formal wedding anyway.

……

office.

After finishing processing the documents, my uncle suddenly remembered Qin Zizhou and Shen Xuening's engagement, so he asked, "Yueyun, Zizhou and Xuening are engaged. Have you prepared a gift?"

Aunt nodded: "I've prepared, of course I've prepared. We owe Xue Ning such a great debt of gratitude, how could I not prepare a gift?"

The uncle breathed a sigh of relief; he had been so busy that he had completely forgotten about it: "How come I didn't even notice?"

Aunt walked up to Uncle and handed him a glass of water: "I didn't tell you because you were busy with company matters. Don't worry, I've made all the preparations. Xue Ning will definitely like it."

My uncle asked curiously, "What have you prepared?"

Aunt held up one finger and waved it: "It's a secret, but Xue Ning will like it."

The uncle chuckled: "Alright, I won't ask about your little secrets."

"I won't tell you even if you ask." Auntie chuckled and turned to leave. "I'm going to help out. Don't wait for me to have lunch together."

"Do you need my help too?" the uncle asked, watching his aunt's retreating figure.

"No need, I can manage on my own." Aunt waved her hand and walked out of the office.

Before going to help, she had to pick up the three children from the airport. They called and insisted on coming. If she didn't allow it, they would sneak over. Helpless, she had no choice but to let them come.

She went to the airport to pick up her three children, but unexpectedly ran into Shen Xuening: "Xuening, what are you doing at the airport?"

"I'm here to pick up a friend," Shen Xuening smiled at her aunt. "Where's your aunt?"

"I came to pick up my three children. They insisted on coming, and I couldn't refuse, otherwise they would sneak over." The aunt was both happy and helpless.

“They can come whenever they want,” Shen Xuening said.

“Let them come over from now on, they’re too lazy to make the trip.” The aunt couldn’t understand the three children’s thoughts.

“Kids love to travel and play, and besides, they probably miss you since you’re here,” Shen Xuening said, speaking up for the three children.

"Maybe. Actually, I miss them too. If the education here wasn't so bad, I would want to keep my children with me." The aunt's eyes were filled with longing.

“So let them come if they want to,” Shen Xuening said, advocating for the three children.
