Chapter Twenty-Nine: Waiting for You Ecological Farm
By the afterglow of the setting sun, four cars drove mightily on the Desire River Avenue. Liu Yan's car was in front, then Su Ru's family, then An Youting, and Lao Tian was behind.
The evening breeze was blowing, An Youting opened the car window to let the wind blow his hair around, as if the week's fatigue had been taken away by the wind, and he screamed in an unusually relaxed mood. caused people in other vehicles to look at him frequently.
Sedum asked Xia Yunbo, "Dad, what's wrong with that uncle?" ”
Xia Yunbo smiled, "That uncle has been locked up for too long, and he is so happy to be released suddenly"
Sedum laughed after hearing this, it was really a long time, Liu Yan felt that he hadn't been so happy for a long time. Since Sedum was sick last time, Liu Yan thought very clearly, only being healthy and alive is more important than anything else. She watched the two men in the back seat having fun, and suddenly a beam of light from the future entered her heart.
Su Ru's family was also very happy to see this scene all the way, and everyone had a happy smile on their faces.
Lao Tian couldn't stand An Youting's high decibels, and pressed the window to the front and shouted, "An Youting, shut up, don't hinder me from driving." An Youting acted as if he hadn't heard it, but it was still the same. Lao Tian ignored him.
Because it is to the suburbs, there are fewer and fewer vehicles on the road. The road slowly changes from a wide highway to a tree-lined country road.
After about 40 minutes of driving, we arrived at the farm, a building that looks like a folk villa is located in a rustic fruit forest. A two-way concrete road connects the farm with Yuhe Avenue.
Because Qingyuan called Boss Tang of the farm in advance, Boss Tang stood at the gate of the farm with several staff members and waited before the car arrived.
After the staff instructed everyone to park the car, Boss Tang stepped forward to shake hands with everyone one by one to welcome.
Qingyuan and Boss Tang shook hands cordially and said, "Boss Tang, I brought a few friends over for dinner this time, you have to worry about it." ”
"Rest assured, the service is absolutely in place!"
Boss Tang looked at Xia Yunbo and the three of them, their temperament is extraordinary, judging from their clothes and cars, they should not be ordinary people. So he shook hands with them in turn, and said with a smile on his face, "Welcome to the ecological farm waiting for you!" ”
An Youting smiled and nodded, "Waiting for you Ecological Farm...... Nice name"
Then he led them through the door.
Sedum and Tian Tian are very familiar because they have been here, and the two children are running and playing happily as if they have arrived at their own home. Liu Yan shouted at Sedum's back, "Don't run too far, let's go play together for a while."
Although it is late autumn, the seasonal fruits and vegetables in the lodge are in season, and the fruits are attractive. Xia Yunbo and the others usually stay in the city for a long time, tired of seeing high-rise buildings, and then looking at this rural scenery, they feel very relaxed and in a very good mood.
An Youting couldn't help but say, "I didn't expect there to be such a good place here, it's really beautiful!" ”
"Yes, I feel relaxed both physically and mentally," Xia Yunbo said happily. Although Lao Tian didn't say anything, it could be seen from his smiling eyes that he was still quite happy. Liu Yan looked at the relaxed appearance of the three bosses, and knew that they should be satisfied here.
Then they met Su Ru and Qingyuan, and the three of them breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, no matter what the meal was, judging from their current expressions, this treat would definitely not disappoint them.
Seeing that everyone was in such a good mood, Boss Tang began to introduce the farm and led everyone to the reception hall.
"Our farm covers an area of more than 2,000 acres, 500 acres of orchards, 600 acres of vegetable land, 100 acres of livestock ancestral halls, 100 acres of fish ponds, basically without any foreign fertilizer, are biological chain planting and breeding. Therefore, vegetables, melons and fruits, chicken, duck and fish meat taste more delicious and more original. Although there are not as many flavors as the big hotels in the city, I guarantee that you will not forget the food. Presumably, the three of them are very good friends of Mr. Lin and Miss Liu! In order to ensure that the guests who come to our farm can eat seasonal fruits and vegetables and naturally grown livestock, the farm has never been operated since its establishment, and can only come by invitation from acquaintances. In addition, we make it easy for guests to relax after coming, and there is also an outdoor swimming pool and a hot spring pool. Soaking in a hot spring in this weather is quite relieving. "Boss Tang's introduction is very detailed, and it can be seen that Xia Yunbo and they are looking forward to it. An Youting said, "No wonder we don't know this place. It turns out that there are so many rules. Boss Tang smiled back to what An Youting said, "In this way, we can ensure that every guest who comes here can enjoy the VIP service, and will not neglect everyone because of the large number of people and miscellaneous things." Of course, this is certainly not cheap. Everyone, please ----" said that, Boss Tang had already taken everyone to the reception area. The place is not big or small, it is very warm and quaint, and there is a feeling of crossing. Liu Yan is really grateful to Boss Tang at this moment, because after Boss Tang said this, it can show that Liu Yan values this treat very much.
Boss Tang smiled and said, "Let's sit down for a while, and I'll go down and pay for it." ”
Boss Tang, who was about to walk away, turned around and asked Liu Yan, "Miss Liu, do you still want to do it yourself this time?" ”
Liu Yan looked at Su Ru and said with a smile, "Let's do the vegetables ourselves, you can get the rest, this time we came late, I'm afraid we will have to wait until midnight to eat." ”
Boss Tang smiled and said, "Okay, the tools and everything are still in the same place." I'm going to get people ready first."
Xia Yunbo and the others sat down, and Qingyuan poured them tea, "A few bosses, drink some water first." I am Lin Qingyuan, Su Ru's husband. I didn't have time to introduce myself just now. Liu Yan is like my sister, the first time I invite you to dinner, I will bring you to the countryside, if you don't take care of it, please take care of it. "After all, Qingyuan is mixed in the workplace, and he is more thoughtful in his words and deeds.
Xia Yunbo stood up and stretched out his hand and said, "Hello, I'm Xia Yunbo." These two are my friends An Youting and Tian Zongbing." Lin Qingyuan shook hands with them one by one and sat down.
"It's nice here, green and healthy!" Xia Yunbo smiled and smashed An Youting with his hands. An Youting stammered and replied, "Yes." I really didn't know there was such a good place outside the city, the air is good, the environment is beautiful, and there are beautiful women to accompany you", making everyone laugh.
Liu Yan drank some tea and said to Xia Yunbo, "I don't know what dishes you like to eat, I'll pick some." This question turned them down, don't look at them usually very good at eating outside, really choosing vegetables in the vegetable garden is really difficult for these bosses, everyone looks at each other. Xia Yunbo said, "Why don't I go with you to see and choose, you ask us at once, we really don't know." ”
Liu Yan smiled and replied, "Okay", but looked at Xia Yunbo's neat suit and shiny leather shoes, frowned and said, "But the mud in the field will stain your clothes, and I forgot to let you change your clothes."
Xia Yunbo realized that except for him and Lao Tian, everyone seemed to be dressed very casually. It's just that An Youting, isn't this guy also in formal wear when he goes to work? When to change sportswear. An Youting saw Xia Yunbo looking at him with curious eyes, and knew what he was curious about, so he only smiled proudly and didn't speak.
Xia Yunbo said to Liu Yan, "It's okay, I'll just pay attention" and then took off his blazer, revealing his blue shirt, and rolled up his sleeves, with a posture that I have experience in farm work.
Seeing that everyone went to work, An Youting and Lao Tian were left behind. An Youting, who grew up abroad, also wanted to experience the life of a farmer, so when everyone took out their tools and baskets, he ran out and said, "Wait for me, I'll go too." ”
Lao Tian grew up in the countryside, so he was not as curious as An Youting, but everyone left, and it was boring to sit and drink tea alone, so he had to go with him.
Xia Yunbo gave An Youting a set of tools and said, "This is for you, you can pick what you like to eat." If you like to eat tonight, it's up to you" An Youting took the basket, looked at the unfamiliar tools in the basket and frowned, and said, "Lao Tian, do we have dinner tonight?" ”
Lao Tian teased him back, "No, we'll eat fruit," Lao Tian said, pointing to a fruit grove in front of him.
But when I really arrived at the vegetable base, everyone's mouths became Oh-shaped, to be precise, An Youting's mouth became Wow-shaped, "Wow!" There are so many different vegetables, it's so tempting."
The vegetables here are carefully cared for every day, and there is a real urge to eat them raw. The vegetable garden is divided into many rectangles, each of which grows one type of vegetable, so as long as you don't pick vegetables on the same plot, you won't pick them again. The ground is very flat, and as long as it doesn't rain, your shoes won't get dirt.
Liu Yan looked at everyone's imminent appearance and said, "You can do it yourself if you see what you like to eat, except for the shovel buried in the soil, you can use scissors for other dishes" This was said to the three young masters who had never done farm work.
Before Liu Yan finished speaking, everyone ran to the ground and started to move. Looking back, Su Ru and Qingyuan were picking vegetables, and Liu Yan hurriedly went to pick the cucumbers that Sedum liked to eat. Xia Yunbo watched how Liu Yan used tools, and then followed her example and picked his favorite tomatoes. Seeing that everyone was busy, An Youting stood in front of his favorite dish and didn't know how to start.
So he shouted to Liu Yan and said, "Liu Beauty, teach me how to pick this dish." Liu Yan went over to teach him while talking, and Xia Yunbo looked a little uncomfortable. Put down his basket and say, "I'll teach you", and snatched An Youting's tools from Liu Yan's hand. An Youting said disdainfully, "You are all half-and still teach me", "I have more than --- to teach you"
Liu Yan smiled and went back to pick his own vegetables.
After a while, everyone's baskets were full and full of vegetables, including beans, eggplants, cucumbers, greens, leeks, tomatoes, sweet potatoes, celery, lettuce, chrysanthemum, peppers, mushrooms---。 Su Ru looked at these colorful organic vegetables and said, "With so many dishes, I will definitely make a full banquet tonight." ”
Liu Yan looked at Xia Yunbo and said, "Let's send the vegetables back first, you see what else you have to pick, there are still some fruits over there," Liu Yan pointed to the direction of the fruit forest and said.
"Then let's send the food back first, you can't take so much," Xia Yunbo said, carrying the basket and walking back.
Liu Yan pointed to the direction of the kitchen and said, "Someone will handle the food when it is delivered there, and we will pick the fruit when we come back", and soon everyone sent the dishes to the back kitchen. The chefs will take care of the rest.
