Aunt Li suddenly wiped away her tears, took Xiaobao's hand, and said, "Xiaobao, I don't have anything else I want, just these few eggs. If you don't accept them, I'll be really upset. Do you think I'm poor? Do you look down on me? Fine, I'll take them back."

sweat……

Tang Xiaobao felt very upset. He quickly took the basin back and put it on the table. Then he took Aunt Li's hand and said, "Auntie, please don't say that. No matter how far I go or how high I rise, I am still your Xiaobao. I am planning to come visit you during the New Year. Your roasted sweet potatoes are my favorite. You must roast a few for me to try. When I am away from home, your roasted sweet potatoes are the ones I want to eat the most."

When Aunt Li heard this, she said happily, "Okay, okay, I'll wait for you at home. I'll make dumplings for you. Oh, and I'll kill a chicken for you. I don't have much good stuff at home, but I can still spare some chickens and ducks."

"Okay, I'll listen to you, Auntie."

Tang Xiaobao agreed readily.

After seeing Aunt Li off, Tang Xiaobao had just sat down when Tang Qingshan said seriously, "Xiaobao, Aunt Li really loves you. She took care of you for many years when you were a child. Don't forget, what Dad said is the truth. As a human being—"

"Don't forget your roots!"

Tang Xiaocao chimed in from behind, "Dad, you've said this so many times, my ears are almost callused."

The whole family laughed.

After eating for a while, Tang Xiaocao suddenly asked, "Brother, do you really like Auntie Li's roasted sweet potatoes?"

Tang Xiaobao felt guilty and said, "Yes."

"Okay, I'll grill it for you tonight, and you don't have to eat anything else. I guarantee you'll have enough." Tang Xiaocao blinked and said mischievously.

Tang Xiaobao was horrified.

"I told you not to lie. You obviously hate sweet potatoes the most, but you still pretended to be me." Tang Xiaocao was very proud.

Tang Xiaobao glared at her and lectured her, "You are just too young. You will understand in the future."

Tang Qingshan supported his son this time and said, "That's right, you are too young. Your brother did the right thing."

"You, you all are talking about me!" Tang Xiaocao pouted.

The father and son burst out laughing.

They are indeed father and son, and they have a good understanding.

Liu Qingqing winked at Tang Xiaobao.

Tang Xiaobao didn't understand.

After several times, Liu Qingqing coughed and said to Tang Qingshan: "Uncle Tang, I have a suggestion."

Tang Qingshan was stunned and asked, "Qingqing, we are all family, just tell me what you have to say."

Seeing everyone looking at her, Liu Qingqing blushed and said, "I called President Shen a few days ago. She's staying in Bazhong for the Spring Festival. Why don't you invite her to your home for the Spring Festival? It wouldn't be good for her to be alone in Bazhong. She's always been devoted to the company and works very hard. She's the biggest contributor to the company's success today. What do you think?"

"Okay, we must invite her." Tang Qingshan slapped his thigh and said, "Qingqing, you are really thoughtful. I am old now, and sometimes I don't think things through enough. I always forget things. This is a good idea of ​​yours."

Wu Chunmei also said: "Yes, it's sad for her as a girl to spend the New Year alone. We should invite her, but will she come?"

"Xiaobao has to step in for this matter. As long as he goes and invites them, they will definitely come." Liu Qingqing said with a smile.

Tang Xiaocao also said: "That's right, he is the boss."

"This has nothing to do with the boss." Tang Xiaobao said quickly: "How about I go to Bazhong this afternoon to see her and pick her up."

"I'll go with you." Wanru said suddenly.

She didn't want to stay at home alone, she was used to being with Tang Xiaobao.

Before Tang Xiaobao could say anything, Tang Xiaocao quickly said, "I want to go too."

"What are you going to do?" Tang Xiaobao glared.

Tang Xiaocao said, "Brother, I've grown up and I've never even been to Bazhong. The farthest I've ever been is the county town. Now that you're so rich, can't you give me some money and let me go shopping in Bazhong so I can buy some new clothes? Besides, Sister Wanru is going too, so we can go shopping together. She hasn't been there either, right? It's perfect, let's go shopping while you do your business."

"Or, let her go and take a look," said Wu Chunmei.

Tang Xiaobao has actually softened his heart.

Yes, he is so rich now and has even gone abroad, but his sister has never left the county. This is a bit sad.

"Okay, let's go together." Tang Xiaobao asked Liu Qingqing: "Sister Qingqing, why don't you go shopping too?"

"I won't go. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve and I have to prepare the dishes for tomorrow's meal." Liu Qingqing said.

…

After lunch, Tang Xiaobao took Wanru and his sister to Bazhong.

The car was good and the road was good, so the journey was fast. We arrived in Bazhong city in just two hours.

At the square, Wanru and Tang Xiaocao got off the car early, and Tang Xiaobao did not forget to pay.

Ten thousand yuan in cash, this is today's limit.

He didn't have much cash on him.

Tang Xiaobao was driving around Bazhong City. He originally wanted to call Chen Mengyao, but then he thought it would be better to give her a surprise.

So he called Ma Ming first.

Ma Xiaofeng is not at home now, so he must go see Ma Ming first, otherwise he will feel guilty.

Coincidentally, Ma Ming is also in Bazhong now.

Ma Ming owns properties in Tongjiang County and Bazhong. This year, he chose to spend the Spring Festival in Bazhong.

When we arrived downstairs of the residential complex where Ma Ming lived, Ma Ming was already waiting there.

Tang Xiaobao got out of the car, opened the trunk, and took out a box, which contained several cans of wine he had prepared for Ma Ming.

They are all brewed by him personally and are not available on the market. They are perfect for conditioning the body.

Ma Ming seemed very cheerful, laughing heartily and welcoming Tang Xiaobao upstairs.

Sitting on the sofa, Tang Xiaobao felt guilty. He smiled awkwardly and asked, "Is Uncle Ma doing well?"

"Just make do with it." Ma Ming smiled and made a cup of tea for Tang Xiaobao.

Tang Xiaobao said, "Oh," and then asked, "Have you prepared all the New Year's goods?"

"I'm celebrating the New Year alone, and I haven't prepared anything. I own shares in several large restaurants in the city, so I'll go celebrate the New Year with my employees tomorrow."

"How about going to my house?" Tang Xiaobao suggested.

Ma Ming smiled and shook his head: "No, I've already made my arrangements."

Tang Xiaobao didn't know what to say.

She felt that Ma Ming was very close to her and they were old acquaintances, but Ma Xiaofeng ran away because of her, which always made her feel sorry for Ma Ming.

The two started chatting.

Ma Ming is now cooperating with the Cao family, and the cooperation is going well. The business has expanded to more than 20 provinces and cities, and the business is booming. However, Tang Xiaobao can still see that Ma Ming is not happy.

The root cause was that Ma Xiaofeng was not at home.

He only has this one daughter and no other relatives.

The Spring Festival is the time for family reunions. How can he be happy when his daughter is not around?

Finally, Tang Xiaobao couldn't help asking, "Where is Xiaofeng now?"
