Trantor: Endless?antasy Trantion Editor: EndlessFantasy Trantion
All the families in the vige had grown ustomed to visiting their neighbors for the New Year.
“Let’s go to Granduncle Su and Grandaunt Su l s house first.”
Even though the Su family had wished each other at midnight, they habitually visited their elders in the morning.
Su Wenxian, Su Wenlin, and Su Wenchi typically visited their grandparents first. Then, they would gather at Chief Su l s house to wish him and his wife. The trio had done that since childhood.
Su Binn and Luo Jin’an decided to stay home to greet guests while the rest of the family went out. The family would wish people ording to their seniority, so they greeted their elders first.
Soon after, someone knocked on the Su family’s door. Su Binn did not expect to see Li Dazhuang, Jiang Xiaocheng, Li Erying, and Li Sanzhu.
The four wished Shen Qiuhua, Su Fengmao, Liu Yinyin, Su Binn, and Luo Jin’an a happy New Year. Shen Qiuhua gave them the red packets she had prepared.
Li Dazhuang said, “W-We can’t ept these, Madam Shen. My family’s living conditions have greatly improved thanks to you and your family. We’d be ashamed to receive these red packets.”
“These are gifts from an elder, Dazhuang. You must take them.”
Li Dazhuang became emotional and felt like he was a family member.
Su Binn also gave a red packet to Li Erying, saying, “Here’s one from your teacher.’
Li Sanzhu and Jiang Xiaocheng were thrilled to receive red packets. Soon after, Li Dazhuang led his wife and the rest to their neighbors’ houses to wish them a happy New Year.
Later, Li Mei and Du Xiaoshuan brought their siblings to the Su family’s house to wish them a happy New Year.
Shen Qiuhua handed out red packets while Su Binn gave everyone snacks and red packets. Everyone was delighted.
Li Su wanted to chat with her teacher, but more people visited the Su family. Su Binn had many visitors to entertain, so Li Mei and Du Xiaoxhuan did not overstay and continued visiting everyone else.
Many people visited the Su family with bright smiles.
Shen Qiuhua was busy entertaining everyone and giving them red packets. Everyone was thrilled to receive red packets and snacks. The vigers could not get the snacks Su Binn had made elsewhere.
Everyone knew about Su Binn’s delicious food, so they happily epted the snacks.
Li Shi and the others also visited the Su family. Yang Xiaoxun and the other actors and actresses also visited. Everyone who visited could not help but want to chat with Su Binn.
However, she received too many visitors, and they knew she was busy. Ultimately, the visitors could onlye and go quickly. Some even skipped breakfast to visit Su Binn in the morning.
Su Binn was very weing to everyone. When her brothers returned from their visitations, she and Luo Jin’an finally took turns paying their New Year’s greetings.
The vige elders looked at Su Binn and Luo Jin’an with great interest.
When the young couple returned, Liu Yinyin followed Shen Qiuhua, Madam Liu, and Lin Tongtong to visit the elders.
Liu Yinyin had always gone to pay her New Year’s greetings with her husband. However, she had grown ustomed to bringing her children with Shen Qiuhua and the others.
After all, women could discuss simr topics. That way, Su Wenzhe could go with his brothers to pay their New Year’s greetings instead.
Su Fengchen and Miao Zhizhi had just been married for a year, so they went to pay their New Year’s greetings together. That was also a tradition.
The entire vige bustled with activity, even before dawn. The vigers would greet each other on the streets. It was the same in the surrounding viges. Time passed quickly, and the sky gradually brightened.
It was time for breakfast after the New Year greetings. Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua made dumplings at home, and the family happily ate together. Although they did not get much sleep, they were excited.
Su Xuexuan and Su Xuehai had received many red packets, and Liu Yinyin and Su Wenzhe had kept them properly.
After breakfast, the atmosphere at the Su family’s house became lively again. Many more people visited Su Binn. Everyone knew she was busy and was too embarrassed to chat with her.
However, Su Binn had more time now, and everyone was happy to talk to her. She found it interesting to catch up with everyone.
As she chatted with everyone, she thought it would be better to have melon seeds while chatting. However, there were no melon seeds during this season. When she thought about melon seeds, she suddenly sensed them appearing in her pocket dimension.
Su Binn was shocked and used her mind to observe her pocket dimension.
‘Did my pocket dimension get an upgrade? If I think of something, will it appear here?’
She tried thinking about a fruit, but it did not appear. She wondered what was happening and why the melon seeds appeared in her pocket dimension. Su Binn failed to discover anything, even after observing her pocket dimension for a while.
She decided to stop observing. Since she had the melon seeds, she quietly removed them from her pocket dimension and put them into a basket.
Everyone asked, “What’s that, Miss Su?”
“Miss Su, what kind of seed is this?”
Everyone was curious about what was in Su Binn’s basket. They instinctively wondered if the seeds would taste good.
Su Binn smiled and exined, “These are melon and sunflower seeds. You can eat or extract oil from them.’
“We can get oil from those? But the rapeseeds we nted will mature soon.
Can we also get oil from these seeds?”
Su Binn smiled and exined, “Sure, but extracting oil from peanuts and rapeseed is much more convenient. It’s best to eat melon seeds. I’ll fry them for everyone.”
She liked eating melon seeds with good taste. As expected, everyone looked forward to trying Su Binn’s cooking. Although they did not know what melon seeds were, they knew it would taste good.
Everyone helped Su Binn.
“Just help me with the fire,” she said, “Frying melon seeds is easy.”
Everyone fought to help Su Binn with the fire while she prepared the seasonings. She wanted to make the seeds tastier after stir-frying them..
