Chapter 510 The Manager is Here
After the song ended, Cheng Qiao took the children back to the farm. However, Wu Xiaolin asked Cheng Qiao with a sad face to prepare a room for her, as she didn't want to sleep in the same room with Mai Sui.
Of course Cheng Qiao knew why Wu Xiaolin was so excited. The little girl was thinking in the wrong way. She didn't expect that girls nowadays are so precocious. The little girl was only seven or eight years old.
"Go to bed early, tomorrow will be better."
"Well, thank you, Auntie."
Cheng Qiao went to settle Wangzai. Wangzai had already inspected the land. He knew that this would be his future home, and this land was the paradise that he needed to protect.
"This is your nest, like it or not."
There was a big wooden house right next to their courtyard. Wangzai disliked it a little. He liked his owner's space, which was a great place with beautiful scenery.
"Help me keep watch, and there will be a reward when I come back."
Wang Zai nodded. Cheng Li stretched out his hand and wanted to touch Wang Zai. Cheng Qiao was a little worried, but Wang Zai automatically put his head under Cheng Li's hand. There was a familiar smell on this boy.
"Son, is there anything you want your mother to help you with?"
Cheng Qiao noticed that Cheng Li was in a bad mood and asked him directly. She was also worried that her son was trapped in love. After all, he was only ten years old, and it would be a joke for him to talk about love now.
A trace of worry flashed across Cheng Li's eyes. He did have doubts in his mind. Ever since his convenience store opened, his grandfather had handed over all matters to Grandpa Yuan Guangming.
Grandpa Yuan has not been in good health recently. He keeps coughing and even medicine doesn't work. Cheng Liguo asked him to quit his job in the sand control team. The work is too tiring and hard, and it is no longer suitable for Grandpa Yuan to continue.
It just so happened that Cheng Li bought three acres of land and needed to build a small store, so Cheng Liguo handed the matter over to him and paid him a salary every month, which was equivalent to letting Grandpa Yuan change his job.
Cheng Li doesn't go there on weekdays, but on weekends or when he gets out of class early, he always goes for a walk. He wants to learn from his mother, expand the store, and build a small family farm on this land in the future.
When he told Yuan Guangming about his wish, he received his full affirmation, and the two slowly began to open their hearts to each other. At this time, Cheng Li discovered that Grandpa Yuan knew a lot, even more than Cheng Liguo.
Yuan Guangming's knowledge of poetry, songs, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, management skills, and business acumen made Cheng Li admire him so much that he even lived in Yuan Guangming's cave for a while. This made Cheng Liguo happy, as it was a good thing for the child to learn more.
But in this way, Wu Xiaoling felt a little lonely. She came to this place to suffer at the orders of her parents. If it weren't for Cheng Li, she wouldn't be able to survive a day.
There were no good friends to talk to her, no department stores to spend time in, no colorful clothes for her to choose from, no snacks and pastries, and even if there were, they were not the kind she wanted to eat.
Also, this place is close to the desert and the environment is extremely harsh. It is windy every day, and when it blows, it carries sand that often blinds her eyes. Sometimes, if she closes her mouth a little slowly, her mouth will be full of sand.
She wanted to go home very much, but her grandfather said that if Cheng Li could stay, his descendants should adapt even more, otherwise why would they be the general's granddaughter.
Wu Xiaoling knew that she could not compete with her grandfather, but she felt that her grandfather was right. Cheng Li was able to open a small store here in order to accompany his grandfather in sand control, so she could also overcome difficulties for Cheng Li.
But at some point, Cheng Li became very busy and he hadn't helped her with homework for a long time. Sometimes she couldn't even find him when she went to the canteen.
Fortunately, a girl named Mai Sui approached her. Mai Sui not only had a pretty face and good academic performance, but also had the spirit of hard work and perseverance.
Over time, the two of them could talk about anything and became true friends. It was then that Wu Xiaoling learned that Mai Sui was the orphan of a martyr. She was deeply moved and her relationship with Mai Sui became even better.
Cheng Li was happy that Wu Xiaoling found a good friend, but Wu Xiaoling was the general's granddaughter after all, so he would also be concerned about Wu Xiaoling's safety, so he also secretly paid attention to Mai Sui.
With this attention, Cheng Li seemed to have discovered a huge secret. Mai Sui was actually practicing boxing alone in the middle of the night. Cheng Li had learned martial arts from Ye Jun since he was a child, and he could tell at a glance that Mai Sui already had a very good foundation.
"Mom, I think Mai Sui has a secret, and Wu Xiaolin knows nothing about Mai Sui's secret. She has never told us about her martial arts training at night or the control she showed over Wang Zai today. Now I doubt her purpose for approaching Wu Xiaolin."
"So this is what you are worried about. Do you know the origin of wheat ears?"
"I only know that she is the orphan of a martyr, and Wu Xiaolin told me that, but I didn't investigate and I didn't dare to believe it. Wu Xiaolin is the granddaughter of General Wu, and her safety is very important."
"Don't worry, Mai Sui's biological mother is a superpower, and she may have inherited her mother's superpowers. As for Wu Xiaolin, there will naturally be someone who will protect her in secret."
Cheng Li trusts Cheng Qiao very much, and he trusts Cheng Qiao unconditionally whatever she says. Since Wu Xiaolin has someone protecting her, he doesn't have to worry.
"By the way, the New Year is coming soon. Wu Xiaolin will be returning to Beijing with us this time. Her family will pick her up at the train station."
Cheng Li nodded. He had known about this for a long time. Wu Xiaolin looked forward to the New Year every day so that she could see her parents whom she had missed for a long time.
Nothing happened that night. Early the next morning, Chen Xiaoniu came to find Cheng Qiao excitedly. Her parents were also there. Because of her call for help, her parents planned to stay here for a while this time.
"You said Uncle Chen and Aunt Cuihua are here."
Cheng Qiao was both surprised and happy. She was going to Beijing with Li Huan tomorrow, but the family farm here had just opened, so she was really worried.
I didn't expect Aunt Cuihua and Chen Weidang to come. They are both good at managing villages. In fact, there is not much difference between managing a family farm and a village.
"Where are they? Take me there."
"It's right at the entrance of the farm. Your prince is guarding the door. Without your invitation, they dare not come in without permission."
Cheng Qiao was happy, thinking that she had not raised this little guy in vain, and immediately walked towards the gate. However, when she saw Chen Weidang and Cuihua again, she couldn't help but sigh, as they both looked much older.
Cuihua hadn't seen Cheng Qiao for a long time. She was very surprised to see the fair-skinned and beautiful Cheng Qiao approaching:
"Oh my, you haven't changed at all, you're still so young and beautiful. Huanzi must have been very lucky in his previous life to marry you."
Cheng Qiao smiled slightly, took Cuihua's hand and walked inside. She wanted to temporarily entrust the family farm to Cuihua and Chen Weidang. As long as the two of them were there, nothing would go wrong on the farm.
