I'm dressed up as the timid eldest daughter, and the whole family has to listen to me!

Just as Su Banxia picked up the wooden stick beside her, ready to strike, she suddenly saw a white figure emerging from the grass, and tears immediately streamed down her face.

Su Banxia threw away the wooden stick she was holding and rushed forward to hug the barely alive Xiao Hei.

"Little Black, you scared me to death! Come on, I'll take you back to get your medicine. I brought you some dry food, eat some first."

As she spoke, Su Banxia held the steamed bun in her hand towards Xiao Hei's mouth. Xiao Hei wanted to eat but didn't have the strength. Seeing this, Su Banxia quickly broke the bun into small pieces and stuffed them into Xiao Hei's mouth. Seeing that Xiao Hei had started eating, she hurriedly picked him up and ran into the yard.

Su Banxia plans to stay in the courtyard on Dwarf Mountain tonight, which will allow her to take good care of Xiao Hei and also go into her space to focus on researching the flavors of candied hawthorn.

When Su Banxia arrived at the courtyard gate carrying Xiao Hei, Su Shiyan had just arrived to take her home.

"Little sister, why are you still not home so late? Your parents were worried about you, so they sent me to pick you up."

Su Banxia opened the courtyard gate as she spoke:

"Big brother, you should go back. I'll stay in the courtyard tonight. Little Black is sick right now, and I need to take care of it."

Su Shiyan looked at the little black dog that Su Banxia was holding in her arms and said with heartache:

“This little dog seems so clever, how did it get so sick? Oh well, I don’t know anything about these things. I’ll go back and tell my parents not to worry about you.”

As he spoke, Su Shiyan was about to help Su Banxia close the courtyard gate.

"By the way, remember to lock the door when you're staying here by yourself at night. Do you want me to come back and keep you company in a bit?"

Su Banxia hurriedly waved her hand and said:

"Brother, I'm not a child anymore. You go ahead and do your thing. Our family is having the house-raising banquet tomorrow. I'll stay here tonight so I can get up early and get things done tomorrow morning."

Su Shiyan nodded.

"Then don't overwork yourself, and remember to close the courtyard gate properly."

After giving his final instructions, Su Shiyan closed the courtyard gate and left silently.

Su Banxia went forward and bolted the courtyard gate before carrying Xiao Hei to the main room on the first floor. She made a warm bed for it, fed it well water from her space, and cooked some chicken for it, placing it beside it.

Then she went into her spatial dimension and brewed a small bowl of medicinal decoction using Lobelia chinensis on the stove. When Su Banxia came out of her spatial dimension, she saw that Xiao Hei had eaten all the chicken in the bowl, as if it were extremely hungry.

Now that Xiao Hei had eaten meat and drunk the well water from the space, it seemed much more energetic. Su Banxia quickly picked up Xiao Hei and fed it the medicine in the bowl. After the medicine was poisoned, Xiao Hei seemed to feel much better.

So Su Banxia put it back in its nest and said softly:

"Xiao Hei, don't go anywhere. Just stay here and get some sleep. Ming Wei will come to pick you up."

As she spoke, she reached out and patted Xiao Hei's head. Xiao Hei seemed to understand and obediently hummed a few times in response to Su Banxia.

After settling Xiao Hei in, Su Banxia went upstairs to her room. Upon entering, she saw that her room had been ransacked and the bed was all crumpled and wrinkled, which made her feel uneasy.

That girl is really a jerk, barging into someone else's room and making such a mess of it. Su Banxia tidied up a bit, made the bed, and then felt safe enough to enter her spatial dimension.

Today I was so busy taking care of Xiao Hei's affairs that the grape seedling Xiao Hei brought back from the mountain still hasn't been planted. Su Banxia first found a suitable place, planted the grape, and then...

They irrigated the grapevines with well water, and they grew a little taller in no time. Seeing this, Su Banxia quickly built a trellis for the grapes so that they could grow freely.

Seeing that the tomato seedlings she had planted earlier had all grown into tomatoes, Su Banxia picked a few small tomatoes, washed some hawthorns, and took out the red beans and glutinous rice she had bought earlier, washed them all clean, and steamed them.

Then, take out all the yams that were previously stored in the space, wash and cut them, and steam them together with corn and taro.

After finishing those tasks, Su Banxia started making bamboo skewers. She made some short bamboo skewers and some long bamboo skewers according to the size she wanted.

After the steamer boiled, Su Banxia cut the corn into three sections, then took out the taro, added sugar, and mashed it into taro paste.

There was no butter or cheese here, and Su Banxia thought the taro filling she made wouldn't taste good. But to her surprise, it added a touch of taro's own aroma, which, combined with the sweetness of sugar, was quite delicious.

Next, Su Banxia added sugar to the glutinous rice and pounded it into a glutinous rice filling in a stone mortar. Then, she mashed the cooked red beans into fine granules, added sugar, and stir-fried them in a pot for a while to dry out some of the moisture.

After preparing all the fillings, Su Banxia started skewering candied hawthorns. There were flattened candied hawthorns, pitted ones with filling, pitted ones, and pitted ones.

The yams were served in bunches of two pieces, the corn in bunches of one piece, and there was also a combination of tomatoes and hawthorns.

These were the only ingredients available at the moment, so Su Banxia made a little of everything to share with everyone at tomorrow's housewarming party.

Su Banxia looked at the candied hawthorns she had made, sticking them into the straw stakes, and felt very satisfied. If everyone tasted them and found them delicious tomorrow, she could make more to take to the market to sell.

After finishing all that, Su Banxia left the space. Just as she was about to go to sleep, she suddenly remembered that Xiao Hei was still sick, so she went downstairs to check on Xiao Hei. Seeing that it was sleeping soundly on its back, Su Banxia felt at ease.

The next day,

As soon as Su Banxia opened her eyes, she heard Wang Guihua banging on the courtyard gate downstairs.

"Banxia, ​​get up and open the door for your mother."

Su Banxia hurriedly got up, dressed, and went downstairs to open the courtyard gate for Wang Guihua. She saw Su Mo following behind Wang Guihua with an angry expression. As soon as she entered, she said unhappily:

"The housewarming party hasn't even started yet, and you've already moved in and are enjoying yourself. I heard from my older brother that you even brought a dirty dog ​​into our yard?"

Su Banxia frowned.

“Su Mo, don’t think you’re so great just because you threatened suicide. I paid for every single brick in this house. Letting you live here is an act of charity, and it’s perfectly reasonable for me not to let you live here. Do you understand?”

Upon hearing this, Su Mo's face stiffened, but she stubbornly replied:

“I came here to live with my parents, not with you. You are a girl and you will get married sooner or later. In the end, this house will still belong to my parents. So if my parents say I can live here, then I can live here!”

Su Mo became more and more confident as she spoke, and then put her hands on her hips, pointed at Su Banxia, ​​and said:

"Don't try to bully me. If you're so capable, why don't you kick our parents and older brother out too? You're the one who has no manners. Our parents haven't even moved in yet, and you've already moved in. Besides, why should you live in the biggest room?"
