"It's the same," Ling Xiaotong teased him nonchalantly, "but you just happened to be a throwback to your ancestors."
"Hmph!" Zhou Wang glanced around the empty bedroom, feeling quite satisfied. "I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going home. Bye."
"Mom, look at his satisfied look at the end. I believe your doubt."
Ling Xiaotong's words couldn't dampen Zhou Wang's joyful mood, and he followed the last tractor.
After the guests left, Yi Xiangfan and Wu Minyi finally had the chance to talk to Zhou Xiang. "Auntie, are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay. I'm really sorry that I didn't have time to entertain you before the New Year."
Zhou Xiang's words were very vague. Although Yi Xiangfan and Wu Minyi didn't know what had happened, it was good that their aunt appeared in good health.
"It's okay. Your business is more important. We came here and felt the local New Year atmosphere. We had a very satisfying time."
After comforting the two guests, Zhou Xiangcai greeted his two aunts and grandchildren, "Jinxuan, Lexuan, come to your aunt."
Two three or four-year-old children who looked very similar ran over and said, "Auntie, Auntie."
"Hey! Hey!" Zhou Xiang responded, took out two red envelopes and gave one to each of the two children. "This is New Year's money from my aunt."
"Thank you, auntie."
"Thank you, auntie."
Zhou Xiang teased the two kids for a while, then told them to go find their mothers separately.
Fang Aiqing and Yuan Xiuwen hugged their son and daughter and expressed their concern for their aunt's health.
When they came back, they didn't see their aunt. Cousin Tongtong said that their aunt was recuperating. Even the two cousins had been playing around for a few days and didn't go into the room. They were very worried, but the Zhou Jian brothers were not worried, so they could only suppress their worries.
"It's okay, isn't it? Don't worry! If something really happened, Tongtong wouldn't be so calm and watch over it, right?"
The excuse of recuperating is too difficult to deal with the subsequent concern, but I have to continue.
As soon as they saw their aunt coming back healthy and safe, Zhou Jian and Zhou Kang looked at each other without saying a word. No matter what their aunt and uncle did or what excuses they gave them, they would just listen. Their aunt would not hide anything that could be told to them, and would not tell them anything that could not be known even if asked.
After chatting for a while, Zhou wanted to call his two sons out, and they all went out for a walk, record a video, take some photos, etc.
Ling Xiaoyuan knew that his mother wanted to keep it as a souvenir, so he cooperated very well.
People he met on the street would ask Zhou Xiang, "Boss Zhou, are you okay?"
Zhou Xiang always smiled and comforted, "It's okay, it's okay, I'm fine!"
Seeing my godfather in the exhibition hall was another comfort.
Filming and recording! The old man and the child took photos with Ling Xiaoyuan without realizing it, and they didn't go home for dinner until dark.
After dinner, Zhou Xiang and Ling Ran chatted with their two sons for a long time before settling into the guest room opposite.
The next day, Zhou Xiang got up early again and cooked for his youngest son himself. Of course, the other two children also had a share.
After sending the younger brother off, Ling Xiaotong hung on her older brother's shoulders and followed him into the bedroom. "Tell me the truth, why do I feel like my parents' love for my younger brother is a bit excessive?"
Ling Xiaoyi tugged at his sister's arm and said, "Go, go, go make a pendant on Yi Xiangfan. Isn't he leaving tomorrow too?"
"No rush. I can go see him anytime after he leaves. After you leave tomorrow, I don't know when you will be back. It's more important that I accompany you first. You are avoiding my questions." Ling Xiaotong used all her strength with her arms to prevent her brother from pulling her away.
"Are you still ready? Your days of freedom are numbered. Your brother has changed his ambition. The family business will be handed over to you. My brother and I will just take the dividends." Ling Xiaoyi looked at his sister with glee.
"Ahhh? Why did you change your mind about something we agreed on?" Ling Xiaotong was shocked by the news and forgot about what she had asked before.
"Plans can't keep up with changes." This time, Ling Xiaoyi easily pulled his sister's arms away. "You're on your own. Enjoy your freedom before you start working!"
Ling Xiaotong, feeling that the future was becoming bleak, went to her mother again and said, "Mom, my brothers bullied me and asked me to earn money for them."
"They don't have time," Zhou Xiang patted his daughter's shoulder. "Your eldest brother is just scaring you. Your father and I can still be busy for a few more years. You can have some fun first. When mom and dad are tired, you can come back and take over. You have to earn money for your two brothers to marry and support their families. What can they do with what they have?"
After being thrown down and then praised, Ling Xiaotong gave up the resistance and patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I promise to give them money every month and I will definitely not let them starve."
It's good to have a little freedom. I'll have fun first. "By the way, how about the dividends from the health garden this time?"
"I'm just giving you some pocket money. You're already in a relationship, so you can't be short of money."
Zhou wanted to know that Ling Ran was afraid that Fang Xin would take away last year's dividends, so he gave all of it to his three children. Fortunately, although some things in the house were touched, the tens of millions of dividends in the year were not taken away, so he felt less aggrieved.
Speaking of the health garden, Zhou Xiang quickly called his third brother. Zhou Hua had gone to the health garden on the third day of the Lunar New Year. He heard that the business of the health garden had recovered a lot, but it was still not as prosperous as before.
"Sister? Are you feeling better?" Seeing that it was his sister's cell phone number, Zhou Hua naturally asked this as his first question.
"It's okay. You're with Zuo Heng and the others, right?"
"Yeah yeah!"
"I want to close the health garden. Do you have any objections?"
"Why?"
"How about this? I'll go over and discuss this tomorrow. From now on, all reservations will be suspended. A sign will be put up stating that the park is undergoing maintenance and is temporarily closed."
"All right."
After her mother hung up the phone, Ling Xiaotong also asked why.
"Because of hunger marketing, because what you can't get is the best. Just wait, I won't shut it down completely! Someone will get anxious."
Ling Xiaotong understood what her mother said, but she couldn't guess who would be anxious, but she believed her mother.
Ling Ran curled his lips into a cold smile. Who's anxious? It's all about anxiety. The health park is a major taxpayer in Huai County. Over the past decade, Huai County's tax revenue has never been in deficit because of the health park. There's no need to apply for funding subsidies from higher authorities, and the balance can even be turned over.
The next day, Ling Xiaoyi and Ling Xiaotong also enjoyed their mother's loving breakfast. After eating and drinking their fill, one left home to return to the team, and the other accompanied her boyfriend back to work.
Also traveling with them were Wu Minyi and Zhou Yuan, as well as the two families of Zhou Jian and Zhou Kang who came to give courage to their sister.
The house was quiet, so Zhou Xiang and Ling Ran went to the health garden. It would take time to renovate the bedroom in Zhou's house, and the decorators had not arrived yet, so she planned to live there.
Her parents, in-laws and teachers all complained about the cold weather and told her to wait until spring to go, so she could go and relax.
When Zhou Xiang arrived, Zuo Heng and Ji Bin immediately surrounded her and asked her how she was feeling and why she suddenly fell ill.
"It's okay. I just announced I was recuperating. Let's talk about closing the health park," Zhou Xiang said, sitting down at the head of the conference room. "I said I wouldn't get involved in the management, but, after the last incident, no one has given the health park an explanation yet, right?"
"No." Zuo Heng's face looked unhappy.
