When Aunt Bei Cuihua came down from the car with her granddaughter Zhang Xiaotong, Zhang Guodong, Xuanjia, Qingzhu, and Qin Lina were already waiting outside the courtyard.

Then, Aunt Mei, carrying her grandson Zhang Xiaowen, along with Zhang Zhengrong, Zhang Guodong's father, and Fatty, got out of the car. Then, a stunningly beautiful woman emerged from the red sedan. She was like a pure lotus flower, captivating Zhang Guodong; that was Zheng Le.

Xuan Qingji personally came out to greet her. It even had a touch of fictional tropes. Initially, when Zhang Guodong interrupted her cultivation, Xuan Qingji was furious, seemingly ready to explode if she didn't receive a reasonable explanation. However, since the Zhang family elders were there, Xuan Qingji had to give them face. Of course, this face was given to the elders, not Zhang Guodong, given that he had been nagging at the Zhang family for quite some time.

Qingzhu was much easier to talk to, but she still hated Zhang Guodong so much she wanted to tear him apart. She even wanted to extort some crystals or other benefits from him, but Zhang Guodong wouldn't take the bait. Fortunately, when she heard that the babies had arrived, she immediately perked up.

Qin Lina followed the two women. There's not much to say about that; looking at Zheng Le and the twins, there was nothing more to say.

Everyone got off the bus. Except for the fat man and the driver, everyone, including Zheng Le, who had once come here for her honeymoon, was captivated by the current scenery of Taoyuan Xiaozhu.

This place is absolutely beautiful!

On the slopes and along the roadsides, nourished by the rich spiritual energy, all kinds of flowers bloom in vibrant colors, vying for attention; in the fields and outside the courtyards, hundreds of trees stand tall, filling the gardens with fragrance; bees and butterflies flutter about, two brightly colored parrots occasionally take off and play, and birdsong rises and falls in waves, creating a harmonious and tranquil scene, as serene as a paradise.

The herb garden was filled with the fragrance of herbs. In the orchard, many trees had grown to three meters tall, and some even had tender flower buds. Next year, perhaps they would grow even stronger and taller, and maybe even bear fruit.

The newly built, enormous swimming pool, and the jade-like stream flowing beneath it, captivated and delighted everyone. The closer they got to the courtyard, the denser the spiritual energy became, and the more comfortable it was to breathe. The air here was ten or even a hundred times more wonderful than in the city, the town, or even other parts of the village.

It's as if breathing in the air here can bring joy and prolong life.

A hundredfold increase in spiritual energy is indeed not something that can be found everywhere.

Everyone was stunned and couldn't quite put their finger on it. In any case, they liked the place immediately.

While the four elders and the two little ones were looking around, Zhang Guodong glared fiercely at the fat man, who awkwardly touched his nose and smiled bitterly, shrugging his shoulders, there was nothing he could do.

With the four elders arriving, he had to stay with them; leaving under the pretense of leaving would be impolite. He could only pray that Zhang Guodong wouldn't give himself away. Speaking of which, this was also the first formal meeting between Fatty and Zheng Le. Moreover, in terms of official rank and position, Zheng Le was Fatty's superior.

Zhang Guodong walked over to Zheng Le, who was silently watching him, took her hand, and whispered, "Wife, why are we doing a surprise inspection today?"

Zheng Le laughed. She had originally intended to ignore him for a while, but at the crucial moment, she couldn't help herself.

Zheng Le rolled her eyes at Zhang Guodong. She said with a hint of resentment, "Mom said you're never home. Tong and Xiaowen don't even recognize you as their father anymore, so they wanted to come and check on us. Is that alright?"

"Haha, how could there be a problem? Actually, I've been wanting to bring the four elders here for a long time. The environment here is very nice. It's much better than the villas in our city. They can live here from now on. Look, didn't I build a small building next door? It was built especially for my parents!" Zhang Guodong couldn't admit it, and laughed a little guiltyly.

Fortunately, Li Yun was cultivating in the Peach Blossom Spring Space; otherwise, the two women would have met. How could Zhang Guodong not understand Zheng Le's question, "Won't there be a problem?"? She was afraid that a meeting between the four elders and Li Yun would lead to trouble. She truly cared a great deal for Zhang Guodong.

Zheng Le then smiled sweetly and walked over with Zhang Guodong.

"Mom, come in quickly. It's our own home, so we can visit often. Oh, daughter, come here, let Daddy hold you. You've grown into a beautiful girl!" Zhang Guodong tried to take his daughter, but Bu Dian seemed reluctant. She snuggled into her grandmother's arms, but her mother glared at her before carefully giving way to her.

"Be careful, don't be clumsy!" Mom couldn't resist giving a nudge.

Daughter Zhang Xiaotong's hair has grown quite a bit, and her eyebrows and eyebrows resemble her mother Zheng Le's. But according to Mei's mother, Xiaotong is much prettier than Zheng Le was when she was a child.

Her bright, dark eyes looked at Zhang Guodong as he held her, and she seemed somewhat unfamiliar with him. She thought of her grandmother's arms.

"Grandma, hug me!"

"Wow, our daughter can talk?" Zhang Guodong exclaimed in surprise. Then he felt embarrassed. Several pairs of eyes stared at him; clearly, his words were poorly phrased, and he was a terrible father.

However, it was Aunt Mei who came to her son-in-law's rescue, smiling and saying: "Xiao Wen can talk now. The two siblings can talk much earlier than other children, and they speak very clearly. They can also walk."

Zhang Xiaowen, the son in Mei's arms, looked at Zhang Guodong with blinking eyes, as if wondering who this person was. He looked like a serious little man.

"Hehe, Mom. Mom, I've just been too busy, but I promise I'll spend more time at home in the future," Zhang Guodong said sheepishly.

"Son, you said it yourself. If you can't keep your word, I won't acknowledge you as my son anymore!" Mother Ye Cuihua said fiercely.

That was quite a serious statement, but Zhang Guodong could only accept it with a wry smile.

The four elders, Qin Lina, and Zheng Le were not acquainted. After a brief introduction, Qin Lina addressed them respectfully as "Uncle" and "Aunt," which made the four elders look at Zhang Guodong with suspicion. What was the relationship between Qin and Zhang Guodong?

But Zhang Guodong, praising Gan for his unwavering integrity, is a director who can withstand any test, introducing the artillery operation.

Indeed, not far away, there was a courtyard that echoed the Peach Blossom Spring, which temporarily dispelled everyone's doubts and worries.

Xuan Qingji remained cold and aloof, but he still addressed him with the respect due to a junior, which was quite rare.

Qingzhu was probably the only one who was relatively relaxed, especially when looking at Xiaowen and Xiaotong. Her eyes were sparkling. Back at Zhang Guodong's villa, Qingzhu thought the two little ones had wrinkled skin and weren't very pretty, but now, they looked incredibly cute, so she was eager to hold them.

Three black lines appeared on Zhang Guodong's forehead. Does Qingzhu like children? Or does she treat her son and daughter like toys? Probably the latter! That's why she wouldn't let her hold them, making her very unhappy. Finally, Zheng Le agreed, finally letting her have her wish and making her smile happily.

The group entered the small courtyard. Xuan Qingxiong stayed for a while before apologizing and returning to his house. The four elders didn't find anything amiss. After all, they all knew Xuan Qingbai's identity—he wasn't an ordinary person—so the four elders treated Xuan Qinghui with great courtesy.

Qingzhu and Qin Lina accompanied Zheng Le, taking him for a walk around the courtyard. Qingzhu, in particular, knew Zheng Le, so she talked a lot.

With Zhang Guodong keeping the four elders company, the fat man showed no sign of leaving. Looks like this kid's here to freeload again.

During the conversation, the fat man casually mentioned, "Guodong, Peach Blossom Abode is quite different from before. The air here is so fresh!"

It wasn't just refreshing; it was incredibly soothing. Every breath invigorated him, washing away all fatigue. The fat man wasn't just envious; he was almost greedy for this place. How wonderful it would be to live here!

But that's impossible. He's the head of a township, and he's incredibly busy every day. It's already a miracle if he manages to sneak in a little time to relax.

Upon hearing what the fat man said, his father, Zhang Zhengrong, nodded in agreement and said, "The environment and air here are indeed quite nice, but it must have cost a lot of money, right?"

In the eyes of the four elders, this place was like a true paradise, far more comfortable than any villa. Naturally, it probably cost a considerable amount of money.

Zhang Guodong is rich. They don't know how much, but they are very clear about how much he spends—he's incredibly extravagant.

“Uncle, Aunt, you’ve guessed wrong. Guodong didn’t actually spend much money here. From what I understand, it was only about four million. But this place, even if it were sold for twenty million, I think someone would buy it!” The fat man glanced at Zhang Guodong and laughed.

"Oh? So you made a profit?" Mom's eyes lit up.

"Why have you become such a money-grubber? Enough money is enough. Wouldn't it be better to live here by yourself?" Zhang Zhengrong frowned and scolded his wife.

Mom snorted. Indeed, it would be such a waste to sell it!

“Dad’s right. This prescription was originally prepared for the family, we won’t sell it! Anyway, our family isn’t short of that money.” Zhang Guodong smiled as he saw his parents’ worry.

Everyone nodded.

Just then, Erhei and Erqing squeezed in, not wanting to be left behind. They were quite obedient this time, seemingly trying to flatter the old couple. Everyone immediately noticed them, but were almost startled by them. Especially Fatty, who instinctively wanted to back away upon seeing the two! Being around them was quite stressful!

Big Black and the others were never polite to Fatty, and Fatty could only accept this frustration.

"Is this Big Black? Second Black? Or Big Green and Second Green?" When Mom saw the two big guys in front of her, she hesitated for a moment, then asked excitedly.

When the family saw Dahei and the others, their size was so different from what it was now that they didn't recognize them at first.

“It’s Erhei and Erqing!” Zhang Guodong explained. “Dahei and the others are in the mountains right now, they might come back sometimes, right?”

The encounter was particularly shocking to Mr. Zheng and Ms. Mei.

Everything here seemed to be beyond their imagination.

After chatting for a while, Zhang Guodong led everyone up to the second small building and arranged assigned rooms for them. This building had already been renovated and had four spacious rooms. The furniture was also in place, and it was ready for occupancy at any time.

My parents and Mr. and Mrs. Zheng's parents were here for the first time. They picked out an apartment, and Mr. and Mrs. Zheng's parents also picked out an apartment, all very happy. They had gotten what they wanted from their son-in-law. All four elders chose apartments on the first floor for easy access.

In the afternoon, the fat man was asked to stay, and they all had a meal together before saying goodbye.

The four elders ultimately decided to stay here for a few days so they could spend some quality time with their grandchildren.

Unexpectedly, the two little ones became interested in the small parrot and a female parrot that had appeared out of nowhere. They kept trying to catch it, swaying around the yard, which was quite worrying. Then they chased the small parrot all over the yard. Their giggles echoed throughout the Peach Blossom Abode. But surprisingly, although the siblings walked unsteadily, they never fell down.

These past few days, Zhang Guodong hasn't been researching the teleportation array anymore. Instead, he's been spending all his time with the two little ones, driving his wife to and from work every day, and Zheng Le has also moved in. He's also been chatting and playing chess with the four elders—and you should know, Zhang Guodong's chess skills are truly appalling. He's certainly had a few happy days.

"Guodong, your father and father-in-law need to see you. Go quickly!"
