When Feng Zhiyi and the others arrived at the municipal compound, it was exactly nine o'clock.
Because Lu Lingxiao had called Mayor Zhou yesterday to tell him that they would be visiting the Zhou family today, Old Mrs. Zhou was waiting outside early in the morning.
Knowing that Feng Zhiyi was coming to their home, Mrs. Zhou took a day off and stood there with Old Mrs. Zhou, eagerly awaiting Feng Zhiyi's arrival.
When they first saw the luxury car approaching from afar, Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou didn't think it was Feng Zhiyi. They just assumed it was someone from a prominent family visiting relatives.
It wasn't until Feng Zhiyi rolled down the car window and leaned out to wave to them that they finally stopped.
"Auntie, Grandma Zhou!"
"Hey! Zhiyi, you're here!"
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law then realized that the family sitting in the luxury car was actually Feng Zhiyi's family.
The Rolls-Royce stopped in front of Mrs. Zhou and Mrs. Zhou the next second.
Feng Zhiyi pushed open the car door and got out.
However, as soon as her feet touched the ground, she was warmly embraced by Grandma Zhou. The old lady was overjoyed, her face filled with a happy smile. "Girl, I've been waiting for you!"
The old lady's voice was extremely gentle, and it was filled with joy and excitement.
"Zhiyi, your aunt has been looking forward to your visit for months, but you and Commander Lu suddenly had to go back to Beijing for some business, so we've been waiting until now."
Xie Huixian looked at Feng Zhiyi with a happy expression.
She patted Feng Zhiyi's hand and then led her into the courtyard. "Zhiyi, come on, let's go to Auntie's house! You can't leave at noon today. You have to stay and have lunch before you can go back to the army."
No sooner had she finished speaking than Grandma Zhou reminded her from the side, "Huixian, wait a moment, there are still guests!"
Upon hearing this, Xie Huixian immediately stopped and turned around. She saw an old lady get out of the car, followed by three children. Only then did she realize that she had forgotten about the others in her excitement.
"Hello, Grandma! Hello, Great-Grandma!"
The three siblings, Lu Xiaoning, Lu Zirui, and Lu Ziheng, all remembered Old Madam Zhou and Xie Huixian, so they obediently greeted them without Feng Zhiyi having to tell them.
"Oh, very good!" Grandma Zhou replied with a smile.
"Wow, these three little guys have grown quite a bit taller in just a few months!"
Xie Huixian smiled and patted their little heads, her smile full of love. She said something happily and then quickly turned her gaze to Grandma Feng. Just as she was about to greet her, she heard Feng Zhiyi introduce her.
"Grandma Zhou, Auntie, this is my grandma, He Wanrong. She just came back and is visiting Jincheng with us for a while," Feng Zhiyi introduced them to each other.
"Grandma, this is Grandma Zhou, and this is Aunt Xie Huixian."
"Hello, we've come to bother you today." Grandma Feng nodded to the two of them and greeted them with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Grandma Zhou immediately stepped forward to greet her. She warmly grasped Grandma Feng's hand and said with a smile, "Grandma, you're too kind. We've all been looking forward to your visit!"
Xie Huixian nodded with a smile and said in greeting, "Yes, you are welcome to visit our home anytime, Auntie!"
After exchanging pleasantries, the group entered the municipal government compound and finally went to the Zhou family's residence.
The Zhou family lived in a three-story villa in a very nice environment with a large yard. As the top official in Jincheng, Zhou Weiguo naturally lived in the best place.
Everyone sat down on the sofa in the living room. While the two sides were exchanging pleasantries, the Zhou family's nanny had already prepared and poured tea, placing a cup in front of each person. There were also four kinds of pastries and four kinds of snacks on the coffee table.
Grandma Zhou handed the bird's nest that the nanny brought over to Feng Zhiyi and Grandma Feng, saying, "Yi'er, old sister, this bird's nest was just cooked. It can warm your stomach. Try it and it will warm you up."
When Grandma Zhou learned that Feng Zhiyi was coming to her house today, she was overjoyed. Without saying a word, she took out the bird's nest that her niece had brought as a gift for her and told her daughter-in-law to buy more hearty dishes to entertain Feng Zhiyi and her family.
We must not neglect the great benefactor of the Zhou family.
Feng Zhiyi quickly accepted the ceramic bowl with both hands, as this was the most basic courtesy. She then said to Grandma Zhou, "Grandma Zhou, you are too particular. This bird's nest should be saved for you to enjoy slowly. It's good for your health, and you should eat more of it."
Grandma Feng took a look at the bowl and immediately recognized that the bird's nest was from Zhanji.
"Zhanji's bird's nest is very famous, and their cordyceps also sell very well. The quality is top-notch, and they are very popular among wealthy ladies and heiresses abroad."
"Did you also live abroad, old lady?" Grandma Zhou understood the key point from her words.
This bird's nest is indeed from Zhanji. It's not sold in China. Jin Suzhen bought it for her from Hong Kong. I didn't expect Old Madam Feng to be so capable. As soon as she took the bowl, she immediately said whose bird's nest it was.
It seems that Feng Zhiyi's grandmother comes from a very powerful family!
Just as she expected.
Hearing this, Grandma Feng smiled and nodded, "Our Feng family has been in Y country for more than 20 years. We have been doing business abroad all these years. I returned to the country with Zhizhi and Lingxiao. We just got back about ten days ago."
"Zhizhi's grandfather, uncles and aunts, as well as her cousins and their wives, will be returning to China soon and will settle down in our hometown of Jiangnan."
"So Zhizhi is actually from the Feng family in Jiangnan!" Old Mrs. Zhou exclaimed in surprise.
No wonder she always felt that Feng Zhiyi's surname sounded familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before. It turns out she was Feng Jiaxiang's granddaughter!
Perhaps few young people today know the name Feng Jiaxiang, but the older generation, especially those who have received help and favors from the Feng family, all know who Feng Jiaxiang is!
"Who is from the Feng family in Jiangnan? Aunt, are we having guests?"
Huh, what's that sound?
Feng Zhiyi paused in her eating, slowly raised her head, and saw a familiar figure. Wasn't this Aunt Jin, whom she had met on the plane back to Jincheng?
Today, Kim So-jin wore a purple mink coat, paired with black trousers and high-top boots. Her long, wavy hair was casually draped over her shoulders. She wore a full-green jade necklace, a jade bracelet and a gold bracelet on each wrist, and also wore light makeup.
It has that 1980s vibe!
"Hey? Zhiyi, girl?" Jin Suzhen saw Feng Zhiyi at this moment and exclaimed in surprise.
"Aunt Jin, we meet again!"
Feng Zhiyi smiled and waved to her. She had originally planned to visit Jin Suzhen's family after leaving the Zhou family, but she didn't expect that the two of them would meet at the Zhou family's house.
