After looking at the hotel venue and the restaurants packed with tourists, Zhong Xiong, Ma Zhao, Chen Ou, Wang Qiao, Guan Zanfu and Guan Zanqiang contracted a restaurant respectively, discussed the differences in their signature dishes and the standardization of prices, and then quickly started operations.
Those restaurants had already been simply renovated, so the six people started purchasing tables, chairs, pots, pans, etc. to share the pressure on the restaurants as soon as possible and to make money as soon as possible.
Three families moved into Nanyuan, so they decided to buy groceries together. Zhou's father was the most active in this matter, so Professor Chu sent Ge Xin to help. Every day, Zhou's father drove his scooter to the parking lot, and Ge Xin drove the car to the county vegetable market.
That day, Ge Xin and Zhou's father came back and brought back four people.
Zhou Xiang reached out to Mengmeng in Xie Lin's arms and said, "Come, little Mengmeng, come to your aunt."
"No," Xie Lin held down his granddaughter's outstretched arm. "Go play with your brothers and sisters. Grandpa will beat them up."
"No, no," Mengmeng said anxiously, "Auntie loves Mengmeng."
Xie Lin's stern face could no longer hold back, and he said to his granddaughter with a smile that wrinkled his face: "Okay, no fighting, I'll just scare your aunt."
Xie Meng stared at Grandpa for a long time before nodding, "Just for a moment."
"Hehehe," Zhou Xiang smirked fearlessly at his cousin. "My niece is kindhearted. Unlike some people who insist on acting like superiors, Lu Jing, take your husband and father-in-law out for some fun first."
"yes."
Lu Jing obeyed her sister-in-law's orders without hesitation. She winked at Xie Chen, who immediately pulled his father away. "Let's go have some fun, and then we'll come back and convince them with reason."
Little Xie Meng was put down outside because it was too sunny and her grandfather couldn't bear to leave her there, so he gave her to Xie Meng's aunt.
After Lu Jing and Xie Chen brought their men back from touring the entire health park, Xie Lin kept silent.
Zhou Xiang came up to him and asked, "How is it?"
"Alas," Xie Lin sighed. "It's a small thing compared to a big one. Ten yuan a ticket is a bit pricey, but people are willing to go! They charge ten yuan for ten minutes of horseback riding on the lawn. There are also people who want to ride for an hour straight for sixty yuan. The administrator doesn't pay any attention and only takes the horseback riding ticket. When the ten minutes are up, they kick people off. The person tried to cheat, but was dragged down by the tourists behind him."
When Zhou Xiang heard this, he quickly called his third brother to ask if he had made an appointment for horse riding.
"I made a reservation! Even the rafting was booked in advance." Zhou Hua didn't know why his sister asked this. "Is there a problem?"
"Yes!" Zhou wanted to tell his third brother what his cousin had seen. "Talk to the reservation service. When people make reservations for horseback riding, explain the reservation time to them and ask for it clearly. It should not exceed half an hour."
Zhou Hua hurried to deal with the matter.
"Thanks to my cousin for spotting the problem," Zhou wanted to flatter Xie Lin. "If it weren't for my cousin's carefulness and good eyesight, there might be trouble in the future. Would you like to come work here?"
"No," Xie Ling smiled, "I'd rather stay in the food station and have some fun. I'll come back when the weather is cooler."
After seeing off the cousin and his son, Lu Jing and her mother were left behind.
With Lu Jing's arrival, Guo Jia now had someone to accompany her for walks. She had been living there for a month and everyone was busy, so she didn't dare to leave casually for fear of causing trouble for everyone. After all, her cousin had taken the blame for her, so she had to be careful too.
Xie Meng and her three cousins Yuanyuan, Tongtong and Hanhan were having a great time behind her and didn't even look for their mother. Lu Jing was relieved to be able to let go. She hadn't done anything for her sister-in-law in almost two years. Now she was just accompanying Guo Jia. She was happy too, at least it was her sister-in-law who arranged it.
Six restaurants opened one after another, and the pressure on the restaurant industry was suddenly reduced. Wang Qiao and Zhong Xiong's common in-laws contracted two more stores. Zhou Hua and Zuo Heng suddenly felt more relaxed and began to tinker with the outer garden with Ling Ran.
Jiang Weihua, who left his wife and children to his niece a few days after the opening, secretly brought three people to the health park.
Zhou Xiang saw the newcomers and glared at Jiang Weihua fiercely, "Where are you going to put them? They are not welcome here."
The people who came were naturally Jiang Xing'an and Ding Fengqin, and the other person was Jiang Xing'an's bodyguard.
Jiang Weihua scratched his head, "How about living with the teacher?"
"No," Zhou wanted to refuse, "The teacher likes quietness."
"Okay," Professor Chu agreed. He didn't want to embarrass the two students. "I live on the first floor anyway, so just ask them to stay on the second floor. I'll come over to your place for dinner, and they can figure out their own dining options. There's no conflict."
"Teacher~" Zhou Xiang felt sorry for the teacher's humility.
"Thank you, teacher." Jiang Weihua knew that he had not done well enough, especially when it came to dealing with matters concerning his elders, he really couldn't handle it.
Before the old couple Jiang Xing'an could even sit down on the bench, they were kicked out of Nanyuan No. 4 and moved to Nanyuan No. 1.
The scenery on the second floor made Jiang Xing'an and Ding Fengqin's eyes light up. "Hua'er, this place is very beautiful. It is a peaceful beauty."
"Yes!" Jiang Weihua agreed, "This was created by Zhou Hua and his friends."
"It's Zhou Hua?" Jiang Xing'an was surprised. "This kid is not bad. He did things according to the rules in the capital without making any mistakes. When he returned to Huai County, I thought he would live a mediocre life for the rest of his life! I didn't expect him to be able to create this health park. You don't know, after seeing the advertisement on the provincial TV station, I wanted to fly back to see it."
"Father," Jiang Weihua said solemnly, "Except for the second child, no one in my eldest sister's family is bad. You should be careful with your words. I heard that Zhou Niao plans to participate in the National Art Exhibition next year. As long as he can make it to the re-evaluation, he can be considered to have truly entered that circle."
Ding Fengqin hadn't spoken a word since she entered the health garden. Compared with the historical sites in the capital, Shanghai, this health garden had only a rough description, but it could make people calm down, and it was not an exaggeration to describe it as a place that cleansed the soul.
Just like her, when she stepped into Huai County openly for the first time, the uneasiness and guilt in her heart seemed to be cured by this primitive wildness, and her steps became lighter.
After settling his parents, Jiang Weihua returned to Nanyuan No. 4, shamelessly went into the kitchen to get rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and sugar, and asked Ge Xin to run a trip to deliver them to Nanyuan No. 1.
Then he sat down next to his niece and coaxed her, "I brought him here because he pestered me so much that I had no choice."
"Did he tie your feet?"
"No," Jiang Weihua touched his nose. "He said this was his last wish in this life. He would stay here for a few days and then go back to wait for the day when he was old. You know that their status is limited, and they have almost no freedom in the second half of their lives."
"Forget it," Zhou said, not wanting to embarrass his uncle who was only interested in protecting him. "If he comes, I can turn a blind eye, but don't mention any other requests, especially safety issues. We won't take care of them."
"Thank you for thinking about it." The little niece gave in, and Jiang Weihua grinned happily.
Zhou wanted to turn her head away from the man's silly smile. Since such a person was thanking her, she accepted the thanks without hesitation.
In the capital, Mr. Xiao packed his luggage and got into the seven-seater car that his granddaughter had just bought for him. His granddaughter said that the seven-seater car was spacious and he wouldn't feel too cramped even if he sat for a long time.
