Chapter 89: The Students Have Arrived

Li Yuanhang reported the few places with good scenery and Feng Shui to Gong Tianhao. He continued, “This is Liu Family Village. It is 2000 km away from the capital. The place relies on tourism. It attracts many tourists with its good scenery.
“This is Jiang Nan’s Zhou Zhuang. It’s known as China’s Venice…”
Li Yuanhuang introduced seven to eight places for retirement. However, most of them were tourist spots. One was not, but it had lots of rainy days, and humidity was not good for Old Master Gong’s recovery. Therefore, Gong Tianhao rejected all of them.
Gong Tianhao sat there and emitted a cold aura. His facial features were as exquisite as a sculpture, sharp and perfect. His thin lips were tightly pursed into a cold arc.
He tapped on the table with one hand as his dark and sharp eyes scanned through the information. He frowned slightly, “These places are not suitable. Let’s look again.” He paused, and a sharp light flashed across his deep eyes. “The final location has to be quiet and secluded enough that people won’t come to disturb grandfather.” His grandfather couldn’t withstand any more provocation.
As long as Old Master Gong was still in Beijing, those people would come to disturb him. Gong Tianhao couldn’t allow that. Therefore, the only solution was to move his grandfather to a place where these people could not find him.
Li Yuanhang understood Gong Tianhao’s intention. He thought for a moment and took a file out of his folder. “Tianhao, what about this?”
Gong Tianhao accepted it, and the title was Investigation Report of Taoyuan Village.
Li Yuanhang explained, “Taoyuan Village meets our requirements, but it has a very bad transportation system!”

After Xiao Lingyu made her first sales, she decided to start farming in earnest. However, the backyard was no longer large enough for her. They could no longer meet her needs.
After careful consideration, Xiao Lingyu decided to hold a family meeting when Xiao Lingye returned.
Xiao Lingye returned that Saturday. He brought with him his three roommates. They only had one goal–tomatoes.
After having Xiao Lingye’s tomatoes, the other vegetables and fruits tasted as bad as pig’s feed. Sadly, Xiao Lingye didn’t bring back more tomatoes after that day. It made them miss the taste even more. Therefore, when Xiao Lingye was coming home, they decided to tag along.
Along the way, they were greeted by the beautiful scenery of Taoyuan Village. Ning Weiyi, Yang Baolin, and Kang Le were mesmerized.
“Damn, Xiao Lingye, this is your hometown? It is like Shangri-la!” Ning Weiyi exclaimed. Ning Weiyi was born in the county town. He would visit the countryside occasionally, but he had only been to holiday villas. They were overly produced and fake.
However, Taoyuan Village was naturally beautiful. Taoyuan Village got its name from the peach trees that grew everywhere. Peach was called tao in Chinese. The small rivers accentuated the natural beauty of the place.
The other two nodded. “Yes, the scenery here is beautiful. Ye, no wonder you’re so good at your studies.”
Xiao Lingye, “…” What does good scenery have to do with that?
Xiao Lingye nodded and said, “Yes, you’ll feel relaxed living here. It’s easier to focus on your studies.”
His three roommates immediately said, “Ye, we still have two months before the college entrance exam. Other than school, we’ll follow you to come back here every time. We’ll rest and prepare for the exam here. I’m sure it’ll help us score well in the exam! What do you think?”
Xiao Lingye, “…” If that were true, Taoyuan Village would be filled with university students. However, the only university graduate around this part was his big sister.
Xiao Lingye sighed helplessly, “Sure, you can do that if you like. My family has an empty room, so you can come to stay there if you want.”
The group soon arrived at Xiao Lingye’s house. They saw the house in the courtyard. It was not luxurious, but it was clean and welcoming. Flowers climbed on the wall. The roses swayed in the wind. They were dazzling with their colors. Purple, red, pink, yellow, and white, it was like an art installation!
“Wow, Ye, this is gorgeous!” Kang Le gasped, “From afar, your house looks like a garden!”
Xiao Lingye said proudly, “My sister planted these flowers herself. She likes to garden. She said the flowers will make the place look beautiful and the heart of the people will become more beautiful too!”
When they heard that, the other three covered their mouths and giggled, “Ye, our sister is amazing! We can’t wait to see her!”
Xiao Lingye was a little displeased. He said, “Yang Baolin, what do you mean by ‘our’? That’s my sister, not your sister!”
They giggled even harder.
Why?
It was because Xiao Lingye was a sis-con.
Every day, he went about mentioning his big sister everywhere he went. His sister was beautiful, smart, and outstanding. She was the top scorer of their county. She was diligent. She was the paragon of womanly attributes.
After staying with Xiao Lingye for three years, they felt like they already knew Xiao Lingyu. However, they had not even seen her before. The tomatoes they had were sent over by Xiao Lingye’s sister.
The three ignored Xiao Lingye’s pout and asked, “Ye, is our sister home?”
They had heard from Xiao Lingye that Xiao Lingyu worked in a big company in City Z.
Xiao Lingye said with uncertainty, “She should be.”
Ever since his sister came back, she was moving everywhere to buy seeds, sell vegetables, and so on. Xiao Lingye also had no idea if Xiao Lingyu was home or not.
Xiao Lingye walked through the door. Then, he shouted, “Dad, Mom, Sis, I’m home!”
Mother Xiao stormed out of the house and scolded, “You bastard, why are you shou…” However, she halted when she saw the three teenagers beside her son.. She changed her words and said, “Ye ‘Er, you’re back. Who are your friends?”
