Chapter 40: Farmhouse Smoke

Before Vivian Chow could say anything, she was dragged away by Zhou Mingjun.

Zhou Huixin followed behind.

"She's putting on airs. She even saw us having dinner with Brother Xi. The bitch Zhou Huimin's scolding was too harsh. I'll definitely teach her a lesson someday."

Lu Yuzhu thought about it and still couldn't swallow it.

"Let's go back too. It's almost time for dinner." Gu Nanxing pulled Tianjiao and walked with her to the ridge of the field.

When they returned to the bridal chamber, the table was already set. The three of them put on aprons again and went in and out to help serve the dishes.

It is rare to have a happy event in the village, so almost the whole family came.

There are tables in the front yard and on the first floor. If there are not enough tables, the tables of each family can be used to make up the difference, as well as the bowls and chopsticks.

Fortunately, there was enough food prepared.

The eldest uncle sat at the same table with his son, daughter and niece. Since they were the host's family, they had to be treated with courtesy and sat on the right side of the main table.

Naturally, the main table was occupied by Old Man Gu, the village chief, and the elders of the older generation in the village.

Joey Wong's pouting lips are so beautiful that a dung bucket could be hung on them. Eating is like chewing wax. She is asking for trouble by coming here alone today.

If I had brought my breasts and mother over, maybe I wouldn't be dominated by that little bitch.

Gu Nanxing and the other three were so busy that they were exhausted. In the end, they just had to hold their bowls and make do with a bite in the kitchen.

After dinner, they started to collect the dishes and wash them. After seeing the guests off, the Gu family slumped on the sofa on the first floor and didn't want to move.

"Master, this young master is here to see Lei."

When Gu Nanxing heard the familiar poor Mandarin voice outside, he stood up and walked out.

Lu Yuzhu and Li Tianjiao followed behind.

Xi Zhifan, wearing a suit, was standing in front of a big black Mercedes outside the door, and Old Xu, who was driving a pickup truck behind him, rolled down the window to greet him.

Gu Nanxing nodded and looked at Xi Zhifan in confusion, "Why are you here?"

"You agreed to invite me to the house-warming party, but you forgot whether you tied it or not. Luckily, I have connections everywhere." Xi Zhifan stroked his hair with his arrogant hand.

I gave the phone to my mom, she really forgot to tell me.

Gu Nanxing smiled apologetically, "A guest is a guest, please come in, sir."

As he said this, he pushed open the door and extended his hand in invitation.

Xi Zhifan pointed to the pickup truck behind him and said, "Of course you have to bring gifts when you visit. Old Xu, drive in and unload the goods."

Old Xu in the pickup truck received the order, stepped on the accelerator and drove the car into the yard.

The car pockets are filled with large appliances, including a refrigerator, washing machine, TV, large oven, and combination induction cooktop.
Lu Yuzhu couldn't help swallowing her saliva. Brother Xi is so fucking rich!
Gu Wenmei helped her mother out to watch the fun, "Nanxing, these are all high-end goods. I asked your aunts to chip in for a washing machine, but they all hesitated."

"Where did you meet such a rich friend?"

Both Old Lady Wang and Old Man Gu had seen these two young men before. They felt embarrassed for a moment when they saw them bringing so many things.

Old Master Gu came down and greeted him warmly, "It's cold outside, young man, come in and warm yourself by the fire."

"Hey~" Xi Zhifan smiled and followed the old man.

Gu Nanxing pulled his aunt aside and said, "Grandpa and I saved his life before, and he's very grateful. I don't know how he knew we were moving into a new house today, but he came all the way here to congratulate us."

This is not surprising, as my kind-hearted father will save sick kittens and puppies.

Gu Wenmei nodded to show that she understood, then pulled her into the house, "Yuzhu and Tianjiao, come in and warm yourself by the fire. You must be tired after a busy day." "Yeah." Lu Yuzhu and Li Tianjiao responded and followed.

With no one to greet him, Old Xu had to unload the goods with Xiang Huaibing.

According to local custom, the warm-up banquet only has lunch, but there are still guests in the afternoon. After they have rested for a while, Mrs. Wang and her daughter-in-law Zhou Xiaoqing start to work in the kitchen again.

Xi Zhifan is also a cheerful person. He has been in the business world for many years and can chat with anyone.

This made Mr. Gu laugh out loud, and at the same time, it also made him discover a business opportunity, which was to make some herbs and sell them.

He acts as a middleman, specializing in purchasing medicinal materials from rural areas, such as individual traders like Mr. Gu, and finally sells them on a large scale to suppliers or pharmacies.

While chatting with the adults, she did not forget to take care of the little master, and found an excuse to visit the house to let her take her out for a walk.

Lu Yuzhu and Li Tianjiao are old acquaintances, so naturally they go out together.

"Young Master, Lei's yard is not simple. It's very warm, much better than standing on the road outside." Xi Zhifan knew that some Feng Shui masters knew the ins and outs, but he didn't expect to meet one here with the young master.

Gu Nanxing looked at him appreciatively, "Of course."

She didn't want to say too much about it, after all, he wouldn't understand even if she did.

"Tianjiao, what do you think? I don't feel any difference." Lu Yuzhu looked at the people around her in confusion.

Li Tianjiao smiled without saying anything. She had suffered from hunger and cold many times, so she was naturally very sensitive to the environment. She discovered this the first time she came to Nanxing's new house.

"Black grape cherries? Oh my god, this variety of cherry is very difficult to grow in the south. Even Chile, known as the cherry country, has to build greenhouses and carefully care for them. Usually, only the king can eat them."

Xi Zhifan was amazed and praised the young master, saying that he was so amazing!
The trunk of the cherry tree is very thick, and there are already buds on the branches. If you take good care of it, it will bear fruit next year.

The thought of this made his mouth water.

Gu Nanxing smiled and said, "Master Xi knows a lot. Grandpa bought this for 500 yuan at the market. I thought it was expensive at the time."

The whole family likes to eat cherries, but unexpectedly, grandpa bought a cherry tree by accident.

At this time, Old Xu came over and said, "Miss Gu, your uncle doesn't know where to put some of the appliances. Why don't you go over and take a look?"

"Let's go together." Xi Zhifan smiled and punched Old Xu's arm. The big fool didn't ask about the young master's family.

The aunt gave her a washing machine, and now there is another one. Gu Nanxing directed them to move it to the second floor and put it in the public bathroom upstairs for his mother to use.

The combination stove is a bit troublesome. It requires a professional to measure the size and customize the cabinets to embed it. Xiang Huaibing was also a little troubled by this.

The kitchen is big enough, so you can just move a table in to put the oven and other things.

After a busy afternoon, the aroma of cooking wafted out of the kitchen window and everyone rushed to the kitchen.

Xi Zhifan didn't know about rural stoves, so out of curiosity he went over to chat with Grandma Wang while they warmed themselves by the fire.

"The countryside is still the best. The whole family chats and cooks, and the aroma of home is so strong. I can't eat such hot and fragrant meals at home."

Old Lady Wang was very fond of this talkative young man. "I can tell you're from a wealthy family. You're such a poor kid, you can't even get hot meals. Come to Grandma Wang's house more often. I'll make you some delicious pork elbow in sour soup."

"That's great!" Xi Zhifan grinned. He was willing to stay with the young master and liked her family very much.

Gu Nanxing was too lazy to pay attention to him and kept Yuzhu for dinner.

There was a large table of dishes, all of which were freshly cooked in the afternoon, and it was embarrassing to serve the leftovers from the morning to the young master.

It was Xi Zhifan’s first time to eat in the countryside. He ate hot dishes while chatting. The atmosphere was very friendly and he enjoyed the meal very much.
