BXBX NOVEL Chapter 726 - Better than a Village Girl
Chapter 726: Better than a Village Girl
Regarding the Taoyuan Village Green Fresh Group, the upper class of the society didn’t really care about it even though this company’s assets had already jumped to tens of billions, and they were all using the stuff from this brand. To these people, the brand was still quite basic.
However, now that they understood the boss of Taoyuan Village Green Fresh was actually Old Master Gong’s granddaughter-in-law, everything was different. The vegetables and fruits they loved all came from Old Master Gong’s granddaughter-in-law!
“Dad, are you saying that Gong Tianhao’s wife is Xiao Lingyu, the person in charge of the Taoyuan Village’s Green Fresh Group?” The head of the Leng family asked very calmly.
Old Master Leng nodded and replied, “Yes, that’s what old Gong said.”
The head of the Leng family thought for a moment and said, “It seems that Gong Tianhao’s wife is not simple! She managed to get her name known by everyone through just selling vegetables.” Even top families like them had to use some means to get her stuff.
The family head of the Leng Family asked, “Dad, so has Grandfather Gong been hiding all these years at Taoyuan Village?”
“It has to be!” Old Master Leng looked at his son and said in a bad mood, “If he weren’t hiding in there, where would he find this granddaughter-in-law? His son fell in love with a village girl at first sight, and he pestered her until he won her over!”
“Ah?” The Master of the Leng family was a little confused. “Gong Tianhao pestered a village girl?! How is that possible? Dad, are you kidding me?” Why would a powerful man like Gong Tianhao waste time on a village girl? That must be a joke.
Old Master Leng snorted, “Who’s joking? Old Gong told us that himself. He said that his granddaughter-in-law looked like a fairy and was smart and capable, causing his grandson to fall in love with her at first sight. However, it wasn’t easy to woo that girl. Gong Tianhao pursued her for a long time before he won her over. Who knows if this is true or not.”
Old Master Gong had been bragging about his granddaughter-in-law to them for the whole morning. It was as if his granddaughter-in-law had surpassed all the socialites in the capital.
Wasn’t Old Gong being too proud? No matter how smart and capable his granddaughter-in-law was, without backing, other socialites could still bully her.
After a moment of silence, the head of the Leng family said, “Has Gong Tianhao gone insane? In the entire capital, he can choose any socialite he wants, but he chooses a village girl as his wife. Isn’t he afraid of being laughed at?”
Old Master Leng glanced at him and said coldly, “Son, don’t underestimate people. With the Gong family’s current status, Gong Tianhao can marry whoever he likes.”
But his son countered, “Even so, marrying a socialite will bring him more benefits than a village girl.”
“You don’t need to worry about him!” Old Master Leng said coldly. “If you want to worry, you can worry about Little Five’s marriage!” At this point, he suddenly thought of something and asked, “Oh, right, where has Xue ‘Er been? I haven’t seen her for a few days already.”
Leng Piaoxue was the only granddaughter of the Leng family. Old Master Leng loved her very much. He missed her after not seeing her for a few days.
Thinking of his daughter, the head of the Leng family said helplessly, “She said that she wants to cultivate a relationship with Jiang Tao and asked us not to disturb her.”
After thinking for a while, Old Master Leng immediately said, “Give Xue ‘Er a call and get her to bring Jiang Tao back for a meal!”
“Yes!” The Leng family head replied respectfully.
...
At night, when the Li family members surrounded the dining table to eat, they felt like swallowing the plates. These dishes were really too delicious.
They were even more delicious than the vegetables they bought from Green Fresh supermarkets.
“Grandpa, I believe you. These vegetables are the authentic fresh and green vegetables of Taoyuan Village!” A fair and tender 16-year-old youth said.
“After eating the vegetables, I can’t even eat meat anymore.” Grandpa Li’s eldest grandson picked up a piece of red braised meat and said with a frown, “I used to love eating red braised meat the most.”
“Dad, can you let me have a sip of that health wine?” The head of the Li family was thinking about the ordinary wine jar his father had been guarding.
“No!” This time, Old Master Li refused without thinking.
The jar was small. If he gave some to his eldest son, the others would ask him for some too. Then, he wouldn’t have much left. To prevent people from calling him biased, he wouldn’t give anyone a taste.
“Dad, I’ll just have a small cup,” the head of the Li family said again. The fact that his father resisted so hard meant that the wine had to be very good. No matter, he had to coax his father to let him try that mysterious wine.
“Grandpa, I want to drink some too, can I?” The youngest grandson looked at Master Li with red lips with a face full of desire.
“Great-grandpa, I want to drink a little too!” A five or six-year-old child grabbed Old Master Li’s arm and said crisply.
“Xuan ‘Er, you’re still too young. You can’t drink!” Old Master Li patted his little head.
Xuan ‘Er asked with a puzzled face, “Great-grandfather, why not?”
“Dad, we also want to try the wine!” Old Master Li’s youngest son joined in the fun.
“It’s already good enough that I’m letting you eat these vegetables. Now, you’re coveting my wine? Impossible!” Old Master Li said. He only had that one jar. It wouldn’t be enough to be shared with his family.
Madam Li said with a smile, “Dad, you’re not worried that we’d finish your health wine, are you?”
Old Master Li, “...” if you already knew, why did you ask?
Madam Li blinked her eyes and said with a smile, “Dad, we already know the source of this health wine. After we finish it, you can go to the Gong Family again. This is not like before, where we have to wait for another month to get another batch.”
“That’s right, grandfather. Anyway, this wine is brewed by grandfather Gong’s granddaughter-in-law. He must have a lot of it. After we finish it, you can just ask for more from Grandfather Gong.”
“Do you people take me for a beggar?” Old Master Gong snorted. However, he was indeed thinking about that internally.
“Grandfather, you are, of course, not a beggar!” The eldest grandson responded quickly, “If Grandfather Gong is really unwilling to give it, we can totally pay for it. Grandfather Gong’s granddaughter-in-law is a businesswoman. If we want to buy, she’ll have to sell. The only difference is the price.”
“He’s right!” Madam Li immediately echoed, “Dad, please give us a taste!” In any case, they had to taste this precious treasure that Old Master Li had been guarding fervently.
Not long after, Old Master Li’s heart softened. He said, “Alright then, you can have a taste. However, except for a few small ones, everyone present can only drink a little half a cup!”
“Thank you, father!”
“Thank you, grandfather!”
..
When Old Master Jiang heard Old Master Li and Old Master Li leaving the Gong Family with bags of things, his eyes were filled with disdain.
“Hmph, what good stuff can old man Gong have for them?”
However, his heart revealed some curiosity.
He wanted to go and find out, but when he thought of how they almost fell out back then, he couldn’t bring himself to face Gong Zhen.
However, when he got the news from Old Li and Old Li that Old Gong had given them a jar of health wine each, Old Master Jiang couldn’t sit still anymore. The two elders both said that the health wine tasted better than the ones on the market.
Old Master Jiang had a deep understanding of the miraculous effects of health wine.
In the past two years, he had spent a lot of money buying a few bottles of health wine. After drinking them, he slept well, ate well, and was in good health.
Therefore, he had been thinking about sourcing them directly. Old Master Jiang thought about it and decided to visit the Gong family.
