An An didn't ask about political issues. As a child, her brain capacity is very limited and she can't think about complicated things.

Zhou Yu's smile quickly disappeared and he sighed again.

An An raised her hand to touch his brow and said seriously, "Uncle Zhou, don't sigh so often. Sighing will make you age faster!"

"You mean that?" Zhou Yu pinched her nose and smiled, "Okay, I won't sigh anymore. But when I think about the many things that need to be rebuilt in Qin County, I feel very worried.

"After four years of severe drought, Qin County lost 50% to 60% of its population. It will be difficult to revive it."

"Actually, Uncle Zhou, you can think about it from another angle," An An said seriously, "With a smaller population, wouldn't everyone have more money, grain, and farmland on average?

"If you give them some more encouragement, wouldn't everyone's enthusiasm rise?"

She said in a condescending manner, "In this world, people die and people are born. Even though newborns are just babies and can't do anything, they will eventually grow up!"

Zhou Yu couldn't help but laugh again: "Yes, we should be optimistic. The drought is over, which is a good thing in itself. Everything is difficult at the beginning, but as long as we get the beginning right, things will only get better!"

"That's right!" An An patted Zhou Yu's hand like a little adult, "Uncle Zhou, you have to cheer up. You are the leader. If you feel hopeless, the people below you will feel even more hopeless.

"Every day, everyone is listless and has a gloomy face. The good days are being ruined."

Zhou Yu smiled and asked, "Where did you get these words from?"

"My grandma said that!" An An said confidently, "What's the matter? My grandma is wrong? My mom also said that my grandma is absolutely right!"

"Right, right, right," Zhou Yu quickly agreed, "Your grandma is right. Without faith, people can't go far."

An An thought for a moment and reassured Zhou Yu: "Uncle Zhou, don't worry, we will all get better and better!"

"Yes," Zhou Yu nodded, "I believe it!"

After a while, he asked again: "Regarding the question of seeds..."

An An sighed in her heart, thinking that her small body had to bear too much, but she still said, "Don't worry, the food in Tongshu Village and the surrounding villages is all good food!

"Uncle Zhou, please stop focusing on my family. My grandma said, 'A tall tree attracts the wind, and people are afraid of fame, just like pigs are afraid of being fat.' If someone were to target us, wouldn't my family be at a disadvantage?"

Although with her around, I will never suffer any loss in the future, but I still have to show my attitude and not let the handsome uncle "become arrogant because of his favor". Well, is this word used correctly?

Zhou Yu accepted it humbly: "Yes, I was indeed a little inconsiderate before. Well, I will collect grain seeds from your township in all directions.

“But it is undeniable that your family’s grain is indeed outstanding.

"Or, just mix all your grains in there?"

An An curled her lips and said, "Uncle Zhou, you're such a smart guy, how come you also have moments of stupidity?"

Zhou Yu couldn't help laughing at this little appearance, but seeing An An's serious face, he quickly put away his smile, straightened his attitude, and asked, "Please give me some advice, An An."

An An said, "My mother doesn't want to be famous, but she can't refuse Uncle Zhou's request..."

"It's not a request," Zhou Yu interrupted her hastily, emphasizing, "it's a plea."

"Alas," An An waved her hands, "Uncle Zhou, it's boring if you say that! You're an official, and my mother is just a country girl farming. How can you ask her for something?

"No matter what you say, she won't dare to refute it, right?"

Zhou Yu moved his lips, wanting to say something, but he didn't know what to say, feeling quite frustrated.

"But that's not important," An An waved her hand and continued, "Anyway, my mother can summarize her experience and write it down for you. Wouldn't it be great if you could teach more people in the same way?

"Of course, my mother can't guarantee that everyone can grow crops well after learning it. After all, not everyone is as capable as my mother!"

Zhou Yu nodded silently. How come some of them, who all studied under great scholars, became famous while others remained unknown?

Although luck is partly to blame, talent still plays a big role.

After saying so much in one breath, An An felt a little thirsty and reached out to pour her some water. Zhou Yu hurriedly poured her a cup, tested the temperature, and then handed it to her.

An An drank the water slowly and added softly, "Of course, I will help too."

With her assurance, Zhou Yu finally felt relieved and a slight smile appeared on his face: "Okay, thank you very much. I know you have done so much for me, and I can't thank you enough.

"But I want to ask again, what do you need most?"

He turned around and took out a list from the box, opened it and showed it to An An: "This is the land and shop I helped you buy before. All four of you have it in your name."

An An's eyes sparkled: "I think my mother can succeed in anything she does! However, I really need to ask my mother what she likes most."

Zhou Yu quickly said, "Tell me when you're done asking."

An An looked at him with a half-smile: "Why, Uncle Zhou?"

Zhou Yu's face suddenly flushed, but he still said calmly, "I want to give a gift. How can I not give someone a gift that pleases them?"

An An smacked his lips and said, "Okay, you're right!"

But she was also very worried. She could see that the handsome uncle was interested in her mother, but her mother didn't seem to be interested.

If it were another time and space, if you were attracted to someone, you would pursue them. The worst result would be rejection.

But in this era, feelings are all implicit. The identities of the handsome uncle and the mother are so different that there are many obstacles for the two to be together!

Oh, so worried!

My mother is a good person. She hopes that she will have someone to support her throughout her life. Although it is a bit foolish for a woman to pin her hopes of happiness on a man, this does not prevent my mother from having a successful career and having someone who understands her by her side!

The handsome uncle is also a good man, and he has good looks, a good figure, and a good net worth. Only such a person is worthy of being with my mother!

She is not a matchmaker and does not bring lovers together. She only has this idea because her mother is her mother.

After talking for so long, An An yawned, leaned his little body onto the kang, and shook his hand: "Uncle Zhou, I'm sleepy, I want to sleep for a while!"

Zhou Yu hurriedly brought her a pillow and spread out the quilt...

After completing the set of movements, An An fell asleep.

Zhou Yu looked at her sweet sleeping face and couldn't help but sigh again. Alas, why is there nothing smooth sailing in this world?
