The night was as dark as ink When it was close to midnight, it started snowing again.

The snowflakes rustled and soon left a layer of white on the ground.

'The auspicious snow is a sign of prosperity," Shen Dashan, who was guarding the central room, said happily as he wrapped his coat around his body.

"It's a good sign," Zhao Lanhua rubbed her hands and replied with a smile.

'Mother, I'm so sleepy-'t Second Sister-in-law Shen leaned on Second Brother Shen's shoulder with half-closed eyes and asked in a daze, "Where did Ah Tao

At that moment, in the Shen family's kitchen.

Ji Zhao held a pair of iron pliers in her hand as she sifted through the roasted sweet potatoes in the furnace. Other than the roasted sweet potatoes, she also specially made beggar's chicken.

The layer of yellow mud wrapped around the Beggar's Chicken shattered with a tap. The fragrance of the lotus leaves was completely stimulated. After raising her hand and slashing down, Ji Zhao cut the Beggar's Chicken and plated it.

'Smells good!"

Before Ji Zhao could enter the central room, Second Sister-in-law Shen, who was a little sleepy, suddenly jolted.

"Father, Mother." Ji Zhao carried the full tray and walked into the central room with a smile. "I made some sweet soup.'

'Child, why did you make so much delicious food without making a sound?

Why didn't you tell me?" Zhao Lanhua was both joyful and full of heartache. She quickly went forward and helped Ah Tao distribute the sweet soup to everyone.

Ji Zhao had made a sweet soup with red dates, wolfberries, and snow fungus. The taste of the sweet soup was sweet and mellow, leaving a lingering aftertaste.

'This chicken tastes really good." Second Sister-in-law Shen, who was nibbling on a chicken wing, smiled with satisfaction. 'Ah Tao, you're really amazing. I was just saying it casually, but you really made the Beggar's Chicken!"

Ji Zhao could not help but smile. The smile on his face was obedient and cute. 'Second Sister-in-law, what do you think of the taste?"

"It's extremely delicious!" Second Sister-in-law Shen said happily. "If it weren't for the fact that I can't chew this chicken bone, I would have swallowed it!"

Ji Zhao was amused.

"Dong—"

Accompanied by a deep chime, everyone welcomed a brand new year.

Ji Zhao had just returned to her room to rest when Shen Yao returned home in the snow.

She did not ask anything. Instead, she brought the bowl of sweet soup that she had left for him into the room.

The moment the still warm sweet soup flowed down his throat and into his stomach, Shen Yao felt the coldness in his body completely dissipate.

'Ah Tao." After Shen Yao put down the bowl of soup, he immediately grabbed her wrist and asked gently, "Don't you have anything to ask me?"

Ji Zhao looked up at his eyes that were as bright as obsidian and shook her head gently.

"I know martial arts."

'Yeah.'

Ji Zhao's calmness was beyond Shen Yao's expectations.

'Ah Tao, actually, I...'
