Farming Space Makes Me Rich Novel - Chapter 681
Chapter 681: Meeting You is the Greatest Fortune of my Life
Old Master Gong and Xiao Letong stuck close to Xiao Lingyu for the past few days.
Since Old Master Gong was following Xiao Lingyu, Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang, who were Old Master Gong’s bodyguards, also followed her too. Thus, Xiao Lingyu would grab attention everywhere she went.
The Xiao family was a little confused.
Xiao Lingyu knew that Old Master Gong and her son were only concerned about her, so she let them be.
It was about to be winter, so Xiao Lingyu wanted to go to the farms to check on the plants and do some anti-freezing measures.
Discounting the residences, two-thirds of farmland in Taoyuan Village belonged to Xiao Lingyu. The villagers received dividends as well as rent. Rather than farm the land themselves, it was better to rent it to Xiao Lingyu. It was so much more cost-effective.
There were still many people working in the fields, mainly weeding, catching insects, and picking vegetables.
Currently, there were more than 30 Green Fresh chain supermarkets in China. Each supermarket needed at least 20,000 catties of stock. In a day, that was hundreds of thousands of catties.
It was fortunate that Xiao Lingyu had contracted thousands of Mu of land in the entire village. Otherwise, how would they be able to supply such a large market?
Because of that, she needed to hire a lot of people to come to harvest the vegetables every day. In short, she hired around 200 workers daily. Some of them were local and others came from other villages. The majority of them were from other villages. This was because ever since Taoyuan Village became a popular tourist spot, the villagers turned to do small businesses. Therefore, only big families or those who were free had the time to go farming. Most families at Taoyuan Village didn’t need to worry about income anymore. They could live as they wished.
On the way to the farms, the workers greeted Xiao Lingyu. There were some repeat tourists who greeted her too. These tourists knew that the beautiful woman was the owner.
Old Master Gong looked at the lush green vegetable fields and exclaimed, “Yu ‘Er, Tong Tong said that you are a landlady. He’s right!”
Xiao Lingyu was dumbfounded. “Really?” She looked suspiciously at Xiao Letong. How would a child that young know about real estate?
Old Master Gong immediately smiled and said, “Why, don’t you know that your son sees you as a rich landlady?”
Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang chuckled. They found the little young master to be very interesting. Not only was he beautiful and cute, but he was also intelligent and shrewd. He was very good at conversations. Many times, even the adults would be confused by his words. It was very amusing.
Xiao Lingyu looked at her son and smiled. She was really beautiful.
…
However, in Xiao Letong’s eyes, he felt that it was a little creepy. His body suddenly became alert, and he explained with a smile, “Mommy, didn’t I see on the television that those who own a lot of lands are called landlords? So you are a landlady.”
Xiao Lingyu chuckled and said, “You’re right.” Haven’t I told the kid not to brag about wealth?
Xiao Letong, “…” Mommy’s smile has become even creepier.
Old Master Gong listened to the conversation between the mother and son with a smile on his face. ‘Life is more interesting staying by my granddaughter-in-law and great-grandson.’
However, what made him feel slightly regretful was that his brat still hadn’t remembered them. How could he forget about his wife and child?
Xiao Letong immediately went forward and said fawningly, “Mommy, you’re a beautiful landlady!”
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Enough, you flatterer.”
Xiao Letong immediately felt a little wronged. He walked over to grandfather gong and said, “Great-grandfather, I was just speaking the truth. How come mommy doesn’t look too happy?”
Old Master Gong held back his laughter and rubbed his little head as he said, “Yes, you’re a good child who speaks the truth. Your mother just doesn’t know how to phrase her words.”
Xiao Zhang and Xiao Wang, “…”
Xiao Lingyu, “…”
Compared to his great-grandson, even Xiao Lingyu had to be sidelined.
A worker beside them heard their conversation and burst out laughing. “Xiao Tong, ignore your mother. Your mother is just too modest and doesn’t like to be praised.”
“Xiao Tong, come and say something nice for Auntie. Auntie likes to hear it!”
“Xiao Tong, your mother is a beautiful landlady. It doesn’t change that fact even if your mother doesn’t want to admit it.”
Xiao Lingyu, “…” Now, look at what he has done.
Xiao Letong immediately said with a grin, “Yes, my mother is a beautiful landlady. She is gorgeous, elegant, attractive, charming, and everyone loves her…”
Everyone, “…” They knew that his mother was beautiful but did he need to hit her with the thesaurus?
Everyone immediately nodded speechlessly and said, “Yes, you’re right!”
“…” Xiao Lingyu said with a smile, “Enough, son. If you continue to lay on the praises, your mother will be so shy that I’d crawl into a hole!” Why would her son always find ways to attract attention to her?
A tourist at the side teased, “Lady Boss, your son is really clever. If my son praises me like that every day, I would be so happy.”
“Lady Boss, we all think that your son is telling the truth. What’s there to be embarrassed about? If someone should be embarrassed, it’s us. We don’t even dare to stand next to you!”
“Lady Boss, you’re really lucky to have such a smart and obedient child. My own son is just horrible in comparison. He’d go around asking for fights.”
“Haha, I heard that the Lady Boss’ son is a genius prodigy. He’s only a few years old, and he has such a wide vocabulary.”
All of them started to praise Xiao Letong.
Xiao Lingyu said humbly, “Thank you, but you need to stop praising him, or he’d get even more arrogant.”
Xiao Letong immediately said, “Mommy, when was I even arrogant?”
“That’s true, but see that smile on your face! It can’t even fit anymore!” Xiao Lingyu said with a smile.
“That’s not true!” Xiao Letong defended himself.
“Haha…”
…
Although Xiao Lingyu was beautiful and had an outstanding temperament, she was amiable. When she chatted with these workers, she did not put on any airs.
That was why everyone joked with Xiao Lingyu so casually.
Xiao Letong, the little devil of the village, was only obedient in front of his mother. When she was not around, he’d be causing trouble. It was infuriating and funny.
However, Tong Tong was also a kind and cute child. He would not bully these workers just because of his status.
..
Xiao Lingyu looked at the lush green vegetables and could not help but sigh in her heart.
Over the past three years, she had slowly cultivated her farming kingdom.
At the same time, she knew that her development was so smooth because she had many people’s help and protection, especially from the Gong Family.
If she hadn’t been lucky enough to meet Old Master Gong and marry the richest man in the country, Gong Tianhao, Taoyuan Village would have been taken over by others already.
There was a saying that it was easy to conquer a country but difficult to defend it!
Old Master Gong and Gong Tianhao were her guardians.
‘Gong Tianhao, meeting you is the greatest fortune of my life! Thank you!’
