Reaching out, Yao Zhi rubbed her wolf cubs’ heads and muttered, "Both of you grow up so fast. I think in a few months, you will be taller than ."
Hearing this, both Ye Ying and Bai Xue turned to her and nudged her palm. They let out a soft whimper as if telling her that no matter how tall they were, they were still her wolf cubs.
Yao Zhi smiled and added, "If you are bored at ho, go to the mountain and play. Or, do you want to go into the grassland and have a good run?"
When they heard this, both of them nodded. Since they wanted to go to the system’s grassland, Yao Zhi asked, "System, can I bring them to my grassland?"
Soon after, a chanical voice echoed in her mind. "The Host cannot bring the divine beasts into the system’s grassland, but you can bring them to your shared manor."
"Do I have to pay to get the permission?" she asked again.
"Since the divine beasts are connected to the Host through a soul link, they are counted as the Host’s property and can enter freely."
Yao Zhi nodded and said, "It’s rare for you to be so generous."
After the wolf cubs finished their als, she brought them to the shared manor. This was the first ti she had entered the manor. While the wolf cubs went to check their new place, Yao Zhi toured the house.
Compared to the outside world, the air in this shared manor was more refreshing and comfortable. The main courtyard was very large, but it was empty. She needed to decorate it personally.
Opening the manor’s setting panel, she saw the option of the default design. She clicked on it and saw that she could choose several designs for her shared manor.
From ancient-style designs to modern minimalist designs, every possible design was available. Since the ancient style didn’t have a good bathroom, she chose the modern, warm style.
Since this design included a bathtub, swimming pool, gym, modern kitchen set, and modern furniture, she had to pay 150 million points to fully decorate the entire manor.
After she considered the pros and cons, she gritted her teeth and paid for it. The mont her points were reduced, the main courtyard and 3 secondary courtyards were fully decorated.
She checked every part of the shared manor and nodded in satisfaction.
With these modern tools, she didn’t have to buy them from the system’s shop anymore. Also, the system provided her with unlimited electricity. The water was drawn from the system’s river.
After she was done touring her manor, she left. Appearing outside, she realized that she appeared at the sa location where she had entered the manor.
She noted this in her mind and went to prepare breakfast. Since it was not early anymore, she just took out 55 pieces of youtiao and 5 liters of milk from her system’s storage.
Not long after, Xi Yi entered the kitchen and helped her.
They had a simple breakfast together before Yao Zhi changed into a set of new clothes and left the house, followed by Ling Shi’er, Ling Shiliu, Ling Shiqi, and Ling Shijiu.
They used a donkey cart to deliver the gifts. Before leaving the village, they visited Wang Shen, the Village Chief, and the village elders.
When she sent over the gift, everyone was surprised but didn’t refuse. While they didn’t have this kind of custom, they were happy to receive her goodwill.
After sending out the gifts, they went to Zhu’an town. As usual, Yao Zhi put on her disguise as Lei Feng in the abandoned temple.
Today was a holiday for every citizen of the Great Yan Kingdom. Therefore, the number of people lining up to enter the town was more than usual.
They waited for half an hour before it was their turn. When the guards saw Yao Zhi, they greeted her warmly.
Yao Zhi handed the gifts she had prepared for them. Besides a jar of apricot wine, she gave them 2 fresh apricots, so vegetables, and a slab of pork belly.
There were a total of 10 guards she had a good relationship with, but there were only 4 of them on duty today.
"Sir, I had prepared so gifts for the brothers. Thank you for your hard work. Please help deliver the gifts to the brothers who are not on duty today."
The guards were happy to receive the gifts. Although she didn’t give them money, these gifts were harder to get, so no one complained.
"Young Master Lei, don’t worry. I will deliver them to the brothers personally," one of the guards replied with a smile.
"Thank you."
After the brief conversation, she paid the entrance fee and left. They didn’t go to the storefront but went to the Fei Long Escort Agency directly.
When they arrived, the door was closed, so Ling Shi’er had to knock.
Not long after, the door was opened, and Luo Bo walked out. Seeing them, he was surprised and asked, "Guard Shi’er, what brought you here today?"
"My master ca for a visit."
Hearing this, Luo Bo quickly opened the door and welcod them. Yao Zhi followed him to the hall while her n unloaded the gifts.
Seeing the sacks, Luo Bo asked, "Young Master Lei, these are..."
"New Year’s gifts."
After a mont, Yao Zhi added, "In my hotown, we usually visit friends and relatives the day after the sacrificial ceremony. We will send so gifts to wish them a better year ahead."
"These are so ho products of my family. We grow the vegetables and brew the wine personally. I hope Master Luo won’t find them lacking."
Luo Bo was flattered by her words and replied, "I can’t thank you enough, Young Master Lei. How could I find them lacking?"
"As long as you like them," Yao Zhi nodded.
They exchanged so words, and she took her leave. The next destination was Zhou Boming’s shop. Unlike the Escort Agency brothers, she gave Zhou Boming an extra jar of apricot wine.
