Murong Kuo went to Gu Siting's house that night to call his little daughter-in-law, asking her to reminisce about visiting Murong Zhuang's house in the past few days, and then asked the driver to send her to Fenghezhuang.
As soon as Tang Yan, the second young lady of the Murong family, heard the call from her father-in-law, she sat on the sofa a little dumbfounded.
"Mom, why are you stunned? It's time for dinner. Tang Yan's daughter Murong Yunxiu interrupted Tang Yan's thoughts.
Tang Yan came back to her senses and followed her daughter to the dining room.
Murong Kuo's youngest son, Murong Jie, looked at his wife and asked puzzledly, "Whose phone is it?" ”
"It's Dad's." Tang Yan replied lightly.
"Dad?" Murong Jie was surprised: "Didn't Sister-in-law Li say that he went to the student's house for the New Year?" How will the call come? Is something wrong? ”
Tang Yan shook her head: "No, Dad asked me to go back to the old house, and then sent the driver to take me to him." ”
Murong Jie and Murong Yunxiu were even more puzzled.
Tang Yan smiled and said to Murong Jie: "Husband, I lost my mind because I heard the tone of my father's speech just now. ”
Tang Yan was a little mysterious: "You didn't hear it just now, Dad's voice was very loud, as if he wanted me to appear in front of him immediately, and I felt that the whole person was full of vitality." ”
Tang Yan paused and continued: "It's the feeling of suddenly rejuvenating infinite vitality. ”
Murong Jie and his daughter looked at each other, completely unable to understand what Tang Yan wanted to express.
Tang Yan stopped speaking speechlessly and shrugged: "Forget it, since you can't understand it, then I won't say it." But I'll go back to my old house tomorrow. ”
"Mom, if you really go back, maybe grandpa is just playing around and letting you run for nothing." Murong Yunxiu said with wide eyes.
Tang Yan stretched out her hand and patted her daughter's head, and said angrily: "You said that about grandpa!" I usually don't go back to accompany my grandfather when I'm on vacation, no wonder my grandfather doesn't talk about you. ”
Murong Yunxiu pouted indifferently: "I don't want to go back, every time I go back, my grandfather tells me a lot of traditional Chinese medicine principles, and my ears are calloused" Murong Yunxiu couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body as he said that: "I don't want to poison my ears anymore." ”
"You!" Tang Yan gave her a doting look.
However, every time the family thinks of Murong Kuo's expectations, they feel helpless. The ancestors of the Murong family have always practiced medicine, and Murong Kuo also hopes that his children can inherit the mantle, but both sons are engaged in business, and the only two grandchildren are not interested in medicine at all.
After a long time, Murong Kuo was angry when he saw a few juniors, and he didn't want them to go back to the old mansion during the New Year's holiday, and finally this year Murong Kuo didn't say that he wouldn't let them go back for the New Year, but they couldn't leave, it was really providential.
"Go back, go back, it's rare for Dad to take the initiative to call us, this time I guess there is something urgent to find you." Murong Jie still knows his old man.
Tang Yan nodded: "Well, I'll go back to the old mansion tomorrow." ”
It was already evening when Tang Yan returned to the old house, but thinking of Murong Kuo's instructions, the driver drove to Fenghezhuang overnight.
On this morning, as soon as the Li family opened the door, they saw the dusty Tang Yan and the driver standing at the door of the house.
Liang Xiaomei, who went out to pick vegetables in the vegetable garden, saw that Tang Yan was dressed extraordinarily, and when she saw the driver who sent Murong Kuo here, she knew that Tang Yan was probably also from the Murong family.
Liang Xiaomei saw Tang Yan's bloodshot eyes, obviously rushed overnight, and hurriedly welcomed people into the house: "Sister, you are here to find Old Man Murong, right?" ”
Tang Yan smiled and nodded: "Eldest sister, I am Tang Yan, the second daughter-in-law of the Murong family." ”
Murong Kuo also happened to get up, and when he came out of the courtyard and saw Tang Yan, he nodded expressionlessly: "I came early, come in." ”
Tang Yan followed Murong Kuo into the house, while Liang Xiaomei on the side quietly asked Ye Xiaoyu to boil the bath water.
Tang Yan sat down and asked Murong Kuo respectfully, "Dad, are you in a hurry to call me here?" ”
"Don't worry, you can take a shower and sleep first." Murong Kuo was not in a hurry to get down to business.
Tang Yan saw that Murong Kuo really didn't look like he was in a hurry, and he was really tired from coming overnight, so he should go.
Ye Xiaoyu had just finished boiling the bath water, and when he heard Murong Kuo say this, he hurriedly led Tang Yan to the door of Lin Zichen's room.
Ye Xiaoyu knocked on the door a few times and shouted to Lin Zichen in the house: "Xiaochen, are you awake?" ”
Lin Zichen had just put on his clothes, opened the door and came out to see a young woman next to Ye Xiaoyu, and was surprised: "Second aunt, who is this?" ”
"This is Old Man Murong's family, who came to us overnight, and I will bring her to your room to rest for a while."
"No problem, come in." Lin Zichen let Tang Yan in.
Tang Yan put down the bag in her hand and sat down on the chair.
Ye Xiaoyu saw Tang Yan's tired face, and asked softly, "Sister, do you want to take a bath before sleeping?" ”
Tang Yan looked at the crumpled clothes on her body and said, "Then the troublesome eldest sister will take me to the bathroom." ”
Toilet? Ye Xiaoyu's mind was a little unable to turn.
Lin Zichen smiled, waved his hand at Ye Xiaoyu, and motioned for her to come to the reception.
"Auntie, do you want to change your clothes? I've got a pair of unworn pajamas that you can wear if you don't like them. Lin Zichen took out a set of oversized pajamas from the closet.
Tang Yan is petite, and Lin Zichen has reached a height of one meter six because of drinking Lingquan for a long time, and Tang Yan is completely wearing the pajamas he took out.
"Thank you, the eldest sister called you Xiao Chen just now, you don't mind me calling you that." Tang Yan smiled and took the pajamas.
Lin Zichen led Tang Yan to the shower room, and replied with a smile: "Of course you can." ”
Lin Zichen led Tang Yan to the shower room, turned on the chandelier, and said to Tang Yan embarrassedly: "We don't have a tiled bath room here, and I hope you don't mind." ”
Tang Yan looked at the narrow bungalow in front of her, and said nonchalantly, "It's okay." ”
At this time, Ye Xiaoyu came with a bucket of water: "Xiaochen, the water is here." ”
Lin Zichen asked Ye Xiaoyu to carry the water into the shower room, and said to Tang Yan: "The water in the tank is cold water, you can test the temperature of the water in the bucket with your hands, and if it is cold, I will add some hot water to you." ”
Tang Yan stretched out her hand to test the temperature of the water, and smiled gratefully at Lin Zichen and Ye Xiaoyu: "The temperature is just right." ”
"Okay, then you wash slowly."
Lin Zichen and Ye Xiaoyu exited the shower room.
"Second aunt, I'll go make breakfast." Lin Zichen turned around and went to the kitchen, while Ye Xiaoyu went to do something else.
Tang Yan took a simple shower and returned to Lin Zichen's room with the changed clothes.
Lin Zichen was already waiting for Tang Yan in the room with a bowl of hot porridge.
Lin Zichen already knew from Murong Kuo's mouth that it was his second daughter-in-law Tang Yan.
"Aunt Yan, you eat something before you sleep, if you don't mind, I'll wash the clothes for you, and then dry them over the fire and put them on the chair for you, okay?"
"Then I'm bothering you." Tang Yan gave Lin Zichen the clothes, picked up the porridge and ate it slowly.
Lin Zichen deliberately added spiritual spring to the porridge, and Tang Yan only thought that he was too hungry, so he drank a bowl of porridge in one go.
"Aunt Yan, you have a good rest, I'll go out first." Lin Zichen gently closed the door and went out.
Tang Yan lay on the soft bed and fell asleep after a while.
When I opened my eyes again and glanced at the clock on the table, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon.
The clothes she was wearing had been folded and placed on the chair, Tang Yan changed her clothes, folded her pajamas and put them on the bed, and walked out of Lin Zichen's room.
The rest of the Li family went to the orange grove, and only Murong Kuo was waiting for Tang Yan in the hall.
"Wake up, follow me to the back mountain."
Murong Kuo was the first to get up and walked towards the back mountain, and Tang Yan hurriedly caught up.
Tang Yan was wearing high-heeled shoes on her feet, which was very inconvenient to step on the uneven mountain road.
Although Murong Kuo didn't look back, he guessed that Tang Yan was not going well when he heard the footsteps, so his footsteps quietly slowed down a little.
It wasn't until Murong Kuo stopped that Tang Yan dared to withdraw her mental power from her feet, and as soon as she looked up, she saw the hot side, and what she had in front of her was a dozen baskets full of oranges.
Murong Kuo picked up an orange from the basket and handed it to Tang Yan: "You taste it." ”
Tang Yan knew that Murong Kuo had never liked to talk nonsense, so she silently took the orange, peeled it and tasted a slice.
As soon as she entered the entrance, Tang Yan's eyes widened in surprise, and she ate several more slices in disbelief, until she finished eating an orange, and then she looked at Murong Kuo with unfinished eyes.
"Dad, that's why you called me." Not a question, but an affirmative.
Murong Kuo didn't nod either, and asked, "How much do you think this orange can sell for in your store?" ”
Tang Yan estimated it and said, "Even if it is sold for a few yuan, there are people who are willing to buy it." ”
Murong Kuo nodded with satisfaction: "Look at so many here, how much can you digest?" ”
Tang Yanshun looked at the entire orange grove: "The hundred or so fruit trees here are estimated to be thousands of catties, and my shop can completely digest them." ”
Murong Kuo nodded, and then beckoned Li Bangguo: "Brother Bangguo, come over for a moment." ”
Hearing this, Li Bangguo put down the scissors in his hand and came to Murong Kuo's side.
When Tang Yan came to the Li family, most of the Li family had not yet gotten up, so Li Bangguo did not know about Tang Yan's arrival.
"Brother Murong, who is this?"
Murong Kuo introduced without a smile: "This is my second daughter-in-law, this is your Uncle Li." ”
Tang Yan greeted Li Bangguo with a smile: "Hello Uncle Li, I'm Tang Yan, you can call me Ah Yan, I'm here to see your oranges." ”
"Oh, thank you, thank you." Li Bangguo bowed to Tang Yan gratefully.
Tang Yan hurriedly helped Li Bangguo up: "Uncle Li, I am a businessman, I value interests, I have eaten your oranges, they are the best I have ever eaten, I dare to guarantee that these oranges will be robbed when they arrive at my fruit shop, and it will be time for me to thank you for bringing me so much good business." ”
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be." Li Bangguo said modestly.
"Uncle Li, when will your oranges be picked?" Tang Yan asked.
If she can, Tang Yan hopes to go public as soon as possible, and she wants to witness the sales frenzy brought by this orange soon.
"It's going to be finished today, you see, there's only a few left." Li Bangguo pointed to the remaining fruit trees and said.
Tang Yan nodded: "Okay, then I'll notify the truck to transport the goods immediately, and send us the contract by the way." ”
"Okay, it's all up to you." Li Bangguo replied heartily. R1152
