Hmm? Hmm?

Shu Ran suddenly opened her eyes. On her hand was a familiar interface; around her were familiar furnishings. She was indeed still in the study.

No, she saw it with her mental powers!

Trying to recreate the feeling again, it wasn't long before Shu Ran was able to "see" the scene next door.

"...twenty-two, twenty-three small silver nudes."

Cuizhi carefully placed the counted silver coins one by one into the belt she had sewn herself. It was made of ordinary homespun cloth with a blue background and white flowers, and was very inconspicuous.

Shu Ran's face lit up with joy as she opened her eyes. Could this be considered a breakthrough in her spiritual power? An advancement?

Thank you, Ruby Goose, for sacrificing yourself to bring this treat! She loves it!

After carefully placing the harvest, the geese that had been caught were unloaded from their backs and stored in the backpack slots, as usual. Although the geese only occupied one backpack slot, there were already 765 of them.

I can’t finish it, I can’t finish it at all!

You only get one chance per day for the limited-time scenario; if you fail, you have to wait until tomorrow.

On the third attempt to complete the normal scenario, a red warning popped up on the page.

[Friendly reminder: You have used up your attempts for today. Please try again tomorrow!]

The 1/3 mark on the screen almost made Shu Ran doubt her eyes, but then she realized that the Spring Festival scene was also counted as one of the three times a day.

Fine! Twice it is!

This is Shu Ran's second year spending the New Year here, and just like last time, she feels completely uninvolved.

The difference this time was that Shu Ran attended the Qian family's New Year's banquet.

Qian Chengji was a filial son and worried that his mother would catch a cold, so he arranged the family banquet in the old lady's courtyard.

After the meal, the younger members of the family came forward one by one to kowtow to the matriarch at the head of the table, offering New Year's greetings and valuable gifts. The matriarch helped each of them up and handed them a red envelope.

To receive preferential treatment from the old lady, you either need to be her grandson or give her a gift, and it has to be an expensive one!

Shu Ran didn't want to kneel. Who kowtows during the New Year? Her family didn't have that custom.

She didn't force herself. When it was Shu Ran's turn, she bowed slightly and that was it.

"Snapped"

The red envelope was thrown on the ground.

"you……"

Before he could utter any harsh criticism, it was swallowed back down.

"Grandma, this is a pomegranate ornament with the inscription 'A Hundred Sons and a Thousand Grandsons.' I'm thinking that only you can handle something so precious."

It's fake; it was printed using broken stones and glass from the ground.

Shu Ran asked Cui Zhi to open the box she was carrying and show it to the old lady.

The festive and bright red color instantly captured the old lady's attention, causing her to swallow back her harsh words and a smile to appear on her face.

"Good, good, good! It's my eldest granddaughter who remembers me. This gift has a good meaning and is perfect for our family!"

The old lady couldn't stop smiling. As soon as she heard the name, she thought of how she had hinted and suggested that she wanted it back then, but that deadbeat man left it to his own granddaughter and even scolded her in front of the family.

In the end, it still fell into her hands!

Oh dear, poor thing, without a backer, you can't protect anything anymore!

The old lady was gloating, and for once she found Shu Ran somewhat agreeable, but only slightly.

"I'm glad you like it. I'm too young to use it. Grandma, you're very lucky."

Shu Ran glanced at Qian Chengji, and thinking of the page she had accidentally seen while burning the diary, she couldn't help but laugh.

"What's wrong, Duoduo? Did you also prepare a gift for Daddy?"

Qian Chengji also became interested and almost forgot that his father always valued the direct bloodline the most, and when he was alive, he doted on Duoduo the most, giving her a lot of good things.

Unfortunately, as a father, he felt embarrassed to accept his daughter's gift. Since she had brought it to him, he reluctantly accepted it.

"Yes, I also prepared a gift for Father." Shu Ran nodded with a smile.

The fabric she carefully selected looks black under normal circumstances, but once it gets wet and is exposed to sunlight, it will fade to green.

The news that her most beloved youngest son was born to her "true love" and her true love is truly shocking.

This is a message that Shu Ying wrote in her diary. I don't know how she found out about it, or what her motivation was for writing it down, but she didn't tell anyone.

"Look, this is a hat I made myself. Now that the weather is cold, it will keep you warm when you go out wearing this hat."

It's fake. I paid extra to have Cuizhi do it.

Shu Ran held it in her hand and showed it off. The material was indeed a rare and excellent one. She then handed it to the third concubine next to her.

"I'm short, so please, Third Concubine, put it on Father!"

He looked at Shu Ran with curiosity, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the familiar red rope around her neck.

"Come, let me put it on the master. Our third young lady is so filial. Unlike her silly second sister, who only knows how to play. She even said that she wants to go horseback riding with the young master of the Lu family after spring."

He bowed his head and let his third concubine put the hat on him. Upon hearing the familiar surname, Qian Chengji's mind raced, and he reached out to shake his third concubine's hand: "Which Lu family? Is it the Lu family of the Shanghai textile tycoon?"

"It's his house. I don't know how Xinyi met him, but the young master of the Lu family always tries to ask her out. Unlike the third young lady, who is so quiet and doesn't even leave the house..."

You've really figured out how to play the game of praising someone while criticizing them, and criticizing someone while praising them!

Shu Ran rolled her eyes quietly, watching as the Third Concubine and Qian Xinyi overshadowed her with just a few words, and silently took a step back.

Without even glancing at the red envelope on the ground, it was obvious that the contents of the red envelope were worthless, since Old Madam Qian was reluctant to part with them!

Shu Ran didn't like it, but Cui Zhi didn't want to waste it. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, she quietly covered it with her foot, backed away, picked it up, and stuffed it into her sleeve in one go!

Even a tiny mosquito is still meat, and she doesn't mind!

Back in the courtyard, Shu Ran took off the red string around her neck, from which hung a small embroidered charm containing a good luck charm.

It wasn't the one Qian Xinyi sent; it was a copy made from scraps of cloth. Although it was a bit rough, it wasn't poisonous.

When January ended, the Spring Festival activities were still ongoing, and Shu Ran didn't want to use her only extension opportunity on it, so she had no choice but to reluctantly let go and submitted a report with little hope.

As expected, it was rejected as soon as I submitted it.

This work efficiency is top-notch! She hadn't even started extracting the new plugins yet, and the reply had already arrived.

According to the report submitted by the testers: The interface lacks prompts that can not be prompted more than three times a day.

Our company has rejected the application after review.

Reason for rejection: To ensure accessibility for all intelligent beings, our company adjusted the difficulty level when distributing the game, limiting playtime to three times per day! Furthermore, infants in the Kepler Galaxy can withstand this intensity; perhaps they should consider their own limitations!
