Lu Jing said, "Sister-in-law, we chose martial arts skills. This is what we have pursued since we were young. Love only came into the picture halfway through. The two are not in conflict. If there is a conflict, martial arts skills are naturally the most important, because what we truly possess is what will accompany us forever until death."
"Yes, that makes a lot of sense. Okay, anyway, renovating a house takes time, and the smell will dissipate. It will be over in a few months or half a year. Just work hard."
"yes."
"Yes, thank you, sister-in-law."
"You're welcome. If it weren't for my intention to strike down your boss, I wouldn't have thought of you. So, am I really selfish?"
Lv Jing and Lv Ying nodded. "If you had trained with us earlier, you might have become a master of internal energy by now. Let's stop talking and go back to continue."
Looking at the sisters' backs, Zhou Xiang hoped that they were no longer two martial arts fanatics.
The security guards' competition was over. The winners laughed and the losers jumped, because the bonuses that had not been paid to the security guards in the past two days were distributed on the spot.
The townspeople who were watching the game in the cold wind wanted to rob the security guards when they heard the amount of their year-end bonus, but unfortunately they couldn't win.
The last three are Xiao Wang, Li Chun and Yin Jiu. This is the second time that Yin Jiu has been ranked last, and it has been a consecutive ranking.
Li Chun patted Yin Jiu's shoulder and said, "Come on! This year, you have to work harder."
Yin Jiu shook his head. "I'm trying my best just like everyone else. For example, I feel like the gap between us is even bigger than last time."
Li Chun looked at the boss and saw that he was not paying attention to this side, so he whispered in Yin Jiu's ear: "Try the dried fruit tea prepared by my sister-in-law. My wife saw Zuo Zhen drinking it and she wanted to drink it too, so I shamelessly asked for it, didn't I?
My wife let me try it, and I felt a big difference. Then I remembered that the fruit from the two orchards was selling well, so I found Xie Zhuang and bought some of the last clearance items.
Li Chun stopped talking at this point. Yin Jiu was a little anxious, "Go on!"
Li Chunbai glanced at him, "What are you talking about? I've explained it so clearly. Try it yourself, especially after training, drink a few sips. I can't describe the feeling."
Yin Jiu wanted to ask a few more questions when their names were called to collect their prize money.
Zhou Xiang didn't care about this matter. He only knew that Xiao Wang had been third for three consecutive times. However, he said, "Ling Ran, you should push him to do his best! If someone else were to come, he might end up second to last, and then last."
"He's more anxious than you and I. Don't worry about it. Mom and Dad asked us to go back for dinner tonight. Why didn't you go back for lunch?"
"With so many of you playing, it'll be a bit chaotic when we get back."
Ling Ran looked at his wife suspiciously, "Why do you sound a little guilty?"
"Smell? Your dog nose? I won't tell you anymore. Hurry up and pack your things. I'll go and urge Sanbao and the others. Let's go home and bring some things back to your house."
After saying that, Zhou Xiang went to the playroom. His wife's back looked like she was feeling guilty. No matter what it was, it would be exposed in the end, so he didn't intend to point it out.
It doesn't matter that his wife is hiding some little secrets from him.
Professor Chu's follower Xiao Tan retired in December and earned a little money. Xiao Tan can cook and his food tastes pretty good, so he no longer comes to eat for free because Professor Chu said he wants to eat vegetables he grows himself.
He used to give a lot of the vegetables he grew to his students, but they had so many families, how much could he eat? Mixing them with other vegetables and cooking them together didn't give him that feeling, that happy feeling of eating until you were full of vegetables you grew yourself.
Professor Chu naturally didn't say this out loud. He just said that the peace and quiet was enough and he could come over for more meals. Zhou Xiang had no objection and told the teacher to come as he pleased and live as comfortably as he wanted.
A-Lian and Jiang Yi didn't come either. They had vegetables at home, and the weather had turned completely cold. A-Lian preferred to stay at home and not go out.
Every now and then, Zhou Xiang would ask Brother Xu to stew meat or fish and bring a pot to each of the two families.
Another month passed in a flash, and the park's business was catching up with the peak season of spring and summer.
The black swans are fond of thick soil and grass. They fly into the sky several times every day and then fall back into the Rain Lake, attracting the admiration of tourists.
The first thing I do when I go to work every day is to use a long bamboo pole to break the thin ice on the surface of Yu Lake, from beginning to end, and then drive the broken ice to the lakeside.
This job was taken over by Uncle Xu and Uncle Liang. Xia Fei asked Accountant Wang to make a payroll, with the two old men each working half a day and earning three hundred yuan a month.
The two elderly people who had already received a month's salary were extremely happy. Their eldest son (son-in-law) said that if they were given the salary, they would accept it, and if not, they should not complain. How could they possibly complain?
After the youngest sons of the two families got prosthetic limbs, their lives became more fulfilling. From Monday to Friday, they make some small gadgets from their hometown, and set up a stall at the market on weekends, earning two to three hundred yuan a month.
The yard can be used to grow vegetables. This year, they harvested vegetables grown with the help of their next-door neighbors. The yard is more than one mu, but only one-third of it is used for growing vegetables. In the spring of next year, they will re-tidied the land, and they won't have to buy vegetables for the whole year.
If they could earn a little more money, their family would be better off.
This winter, the food station's business depends on this park. The pigs in the pigpen have been sold. Two of them were slaughtered by themselves, and the rest were taken away by people sent by Mr. Xiao.
The business of the post station was very depressed, not only because the piglets were gone, but also because Zhou Xiang had not installed air conditioning. Every year from late autumn to early spring was the off-season for the post station.
Later, Zhou wanted to give the servants a holiday, but the servants were worried, so two of them took turns sweeping the dust every day to prevent any guests from occasionally wanting to experience it.
During the five months of vacation, Zhou Xiang would pay them basic salary.
The Black Swan boosted the park's business, but it also attracted complaints from jealous people. Lawyer Fang simply made copies of various documents, laminated them, and posted them near the park gate.
During this month, Ling Ran discovered that his wife and Lv Jing and Lv Ying were acting mysteriously, especially Lv Jing and Lv Ying, who always hid in their room. When he wanted to criticize them, his wife criticized him for being harsh on his employees.
Did he? Didn't he see Xie Chen and Xiao Chen staring at Lu Jing and her room door eight out of ten times? They were almost like two stones looking at their wives.
My wife’s little secret must be related to these two bodyguards.
It’s already the 21st day of the twelfth lunar month, and there are many more security guards asking for dried fruits recently. Could it be that there are also many pregnant women?
Ling Ran shook his head. "I don't know who discovered the secret of dried fruit. Everyone secretly drinks a cup after training. Oh, right, should I drink some before meditating?"
Zhou Xiang remained silent, but Ling Ran was full of energy.
After drinking a cup of strong dried fruit tea, I went back to the room to meditate, and then went to the bathroom twice in a row.
Zhou Xiang pretended not to see it, but laughed in his heart. This guy is almost possessed.
Ling Ran sat down next to her, "Wife, please give me some fruit!"
Zhou Xiang nodded, and a pile of fruits appeared on the coffee table. "Put them away and eat them slowly."
After meditating for two days while chewing on fruits, Ling Ran gave up this shortcut. Those security guards drank it after intensive training, and it seemed that meditating alone would not be of much use.
Zhou Xiang just watched him struggling. She didn't want to dampen his spirits because it seemed quite interesting to watch him with such a cold eye.
