Chapter 1204 Surprised Red Rice, Traveling to the Farm
Cui Lingdang slept with Xu Hongdou at night. Zhou Chen agreed with Xu Hongdou about the time tomorrow morning and went back to his room to sleep.
Early the next morning, Zhou Chen started meditating as before, waiting for Xu Hongdou's call.
Because she had to accompany her niece, Xu Hongdou did not get up early to meditate with Zhou Chen today. Instead, she got up, packed the bells, and then walked downstairs.
"We are all ready, what about you, are you ready to go?"
Zhou Chen said: "I have nothing to prepare, let's just go."
Xu Hongdou said: "Okay, let's set off now. By the way, my sister is a bit talkative. If she says something later, don't worry."
Zhou Chen said with a smile: "I heard you say that your sister is the boss of the company. She must be a person with high emotional intelligence and won't say anything."
He is really not worried. Xu Hongdou thinks Xu Hongmi is fierce and bad because they are biological sisters. But if Xu Hongmi really has low emotional intelligence, how could she be in such a high position? It can be seen from the TV plot.
It can be seen that Xu Hongmi is a capable, smart and emotionally intelligent person.
The most important thing is that Xu Hongmi really cares about her biological sister Xu Hongdou.
Arriving at the parking lot at the entrance of the village, Zhou Chen drove Xu Hongdou and Cui Lingdang, and soon arrived at the town. First, he took Xu Hongdou and Lingdang to eat signature rice noodles, and then went to the B&B.
"call!"
Standing at the door of the B&B, Zhou Chen looked at Xu Hongdou who was taking a deep breath and said, "Why do I feel that you are more nervous than me?"
Xu Hongdou took a breath: "How could I not be nervous? If my sister knew that you were my boyfriend, she would definitely have to ask a lot of questions. Aren't you nervous?"
"To be honest, I'm not nervous at all, because I am determined and will never marry you unless I am in this life, so I am not afraid of seeing your sister. If I came to see your parents, maybe I would be more nervous."
In addition to this reason, there is also the fact that he has experienced this kind of thing many times and has already developed a mentality of not being afraid of danger.
Just meeting my girlfriend's family, could it be more scary than fighting on an ancient battlefield?
Xu Hongdou said: "As expected of a big boss, you have such a good attitude. In this regard, you are somewhat similar to Xu Hongmi. When she met my brother-in-law's relatives and friends for the first time, she was not nervous or afraid."
"What's going on? I called her and took so long. She still hasn't come down yet."
While Xu Hongdou was chanting, a woman wearing a straw hat, a dark dress, and her hair disheveled walked out from the door of the B&B.
As soon as Xu Hongdou saw her, she waved and called: "Sister, here."
The bell also shouted loudly for mother.
Xu Hongmi walked up to her, her eyes swept over Xu Hongdou and her daughter, and then landed on Zhou Chen.
Xu Hongdou immediately introduced: "Sister, this is Zhou Chen."
Xu Hongmi nodded and said, "I know, he was in the video you sent to the family group before."
Zhou Chen took the initiative to reach out his hand and said, "Hello, Sister Hongmi."
"Hello." Xu Hongmi replied politely.
Cui Lingdang suddenly said: "Mom, uncle is my aunt's boyfriend."
"Huh?" Xu Hongmi raised her eyebrows instantly.
Xu Hongdou glared at Lingdang, but Lingdang didn't care and smiled.
"Lingdang is right, Zhou Chen is my boyfriend now."
Xu Hongmi pointed at her: "Okay, Xu Hongdou, even if you have a boyfriend, you won't even tell me or my parents."
"Sister, our relationship was established just a few days ago. If you don't believe me, just ask Zhou Chen."
Zhou Chen explained: "Sister Hongmi, that's what Hongdou said. I have been chasing her for a long time. We only established a relationship after getting her consent a few days ago."
Xu Hongmi didn't have any objections to Zhou Chen because of this.
"I still know my sister, she..."
Xu Hongdou hurriedly stopped her and urged: "Sister, let's get in the car first, and we'll talk about anything else after we get in the car."
Zhou Chen also said: "Yes, Sister Hongmi, get in the car first."
Xu Hongmi nodded and said, "Okay."
After getting in the car, Xu Hongdou asked: "How are you? Did you sleep well yesterday?"
Xu Hongmi sighed: "No, the sound insulation is too poor, there are mosquitoes and flying insects flying everywhere, and the bedding is too rough and uncomfortable."
Xu Hongdou looked helpless: "This is already the best B&B in the area. Let's just do it. When we come back, I'll ask Zhou Chen to send you some mosquito repellent sachets. They'll be very useful."
"Mosquito repellent sachet?"
"Yes, Zhou Chen has researched on medicinal herbs, so he made his own mosquito repellent sachet, which is really useful. Anyway, I rarely get bitten by mosquitoes when I wear it."
"Really? It's so magical. You also do research on medicinal herbs. Are you a doctor?"
The last sentence was asked to Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen replied: "I'm not a doctor, I'm just interested in Chinese medicine and have been studying it for a while."
"oh."
Xu Hongmi asked again: "Then what do you do? Don't mind, you are my sister's boyfriend, but I don't know you very well, so..."
Zhou Chen said very understandingly: "Sister Hongmi, I understand. Hongdou, open the glove box. There is my business card inside. You can get one for Sister Hongmi."
Xu Hongdou asked in surprise: "You also brought your business card?"
While she was talking, she had already opened the glove box, found the business cards inside, took two of them, and handed one to Xu Hongmi in the back row.
"I put it in the car before, but I never took it out."
Xu Hongmi took the business card and was stunned when she saw it.
"Zhou Chen, chairman of Chenxing Capital and chairman of Chenxing Charitable Foundation."
She suddenly raised her head and looked at Zhou Chen in astonishment: "Are you the boss behind Chenxing Capital and Chenxing Charitable Foundation?"
Although there are countless large groups and companies in Shanghai, Chenxing Capital’s reputation in the industry has increased rapidly in the past two years. She is also the CEO of a company and has heard people talk about Chenxing Capital. She also heard that Chenxing Capital has great potential.
, the boss behind the scenes is also very mysterious and so on.
Zhou Chen said: "Chenxing Capital and Chenxing Charitable Foundation are companies I founded more than three years ago. Have you heard of it, Sister Hongmi?"
Xu Hongmi said with complicated eyes: "Of course I have heard of it. Chenxing Capital is a venture capital company that has grown very fast in Shanghai in recent years. Chenxing Charity Foundation is also well-known in Shanghai. I never expected that it would be here.
Knowing you, my sister is so virtuous and capable that she can actually become your girlfriend."
When Xu Hongdou heard this, he immediately became unhappy.
"What are you talking about, sister, have you ever belittled your own sister like this?"
Xu Hongmi retorted without giving any face: "I'm not belittling you, I'm just telling the truth. Although you are my biological sister, to be honest, you have only ordinary qualifications to be able to get a man like Zhou Chen."
My friend, you are just lucky."
Xu Hongdou was speechless, she was really a real sister, but even Xu Hongmi knew Zhou Chen's company, so it seemed that her boyfriend was really not simple.
Zhou Chen said: "Sister Hongmi is too praised. It was just my bad luck that I met Hongdou."
"Stop speaking for her. I know her better than you do. She is not as good as you think."
Xu Hongdou was furious: "Xu Hongmi, have you ever said that about your sister? Why am I not feeling well?"
"hehe."
Xu Hongmi smiled disdainfully, which made Xu Hongdou even more angry.
Zhou Chen said softly: "Sister Hongmi, Hongdou and I really love each other. Maybe Hongdou has shortcomings, but in my eyes, she is the truest and best. I also believe that she will be my lifelong partner, so we
Falling in love is not about temporary pleasure, but about serious consideration for the future."
Xu Hongmi kept staring at Zhou Chen. Seeing that Zhou Chen was sincere and serious, a complicated light flashed in his eyes, and she was very satisfied.
"I'm just Hongdou's sister. I can't make the final decision on whether your affairs can succeed or not. I still need my parents' nod for this matter."
Zhou Chen said: "I understand, and I will work hard. Hongdou and I have also discussed that we will leave when the lease period of the courtyard is up. At that time, I will go with Hongdou to visit my uncle and aunt."
"As long as you have this plan."
Xu Hongmi still agrees with Zhou Chen, because Zhou Chen's words like this show that he really doesn't just want to play with Hongdou, but sincerely wants to be together.
"Sister Hongmi, is there anywhere you want to go?"
Xu Hongmi thought about it and asked, "Are there any farms nearby? I want to introduce Lingdang to some crops and so on."
Ling Ding finally had a chance to speak. She said, "Mom, I also want to pick plums."
Zhou Chen said: "I remember Xie Zhiyao has a friend who runs an organic farm. I called him to ask him."
"Okay, you call him now."
Zhou Chen picked up his cell phone and dialed Xie Zhiyao's number. He soon learned the location of the organic farm from Xie Zhiyao, and then drove off.
"Xie Zhiyao said that his friend's farm basically has pumpkins, cucumbers, tomatoes, etc. You can also eat there, but they only serve two tables a day. If necessary, he will order it for us."
Xu Hongdou asked Xu Hongmi, Xu Hongmi nodded immediately, and then Xu Hongdou sent a message to Xie Zhiyao on Zhou Chen's mobile phone, asking him to book a table.
As the car drove on the road, Xu Hongmi looked at Xu Hongdou talking to Zhou Chen from time to time. Zhou Chen responded patiently and smiled unconsciously.
As a biological sister, she certainly hopes that her sister will live well. What she said to Zhou Chen about Xu Hongdou before was intentional.
After all, in her opinion, there is a big gap in conditions between her younger sister Hongdou and Zhou Chen, and she is worried that her sister will be hurt if the two cannot get together in the end.
Because she knows how emotional her sister is. If she invests too much emotion, it will be difficult to get out once she is hurt.
But judging from her observations, Zhou Chen seems to really care about Hongdou and is very serious. Maybe her worries are unnecessary.
The car drove onto the county road, and crops were planted on both sides of the road.
Ling Dang, who was sitting in the car, looked at the green crops curiously and asked Xu Hongmi curiously: "Mom, are those leeks?"
Xu Hongmi took a look and said, "That's wheat."
"What is wheat?"
"Wheat is the steamed buns eaten at grandma's house."
"Oh." Bell nodded.
Zhou Chen twitched the corner of his mouth when he heard the conversation between their mother and daughter.
Xu Hongdou couldn't bear it anymore and sighed: "Xu Hongmi, can you stop teaching me blindly? That's rice."
Xu Hongmi's expression froze: "Isn't that wheat?"
"No, rice, corn, and the waxy corn are all produced here, which are particularly delicious."
Passing by a flower field, she said to Ling Ding: "Ling Ding, look over there, there is a rose field over there."
Ling Ding immediately turned around and exclaimed: "Wow, what a rose."
Xu Hongmi frowned and said, "Why do these roses look so ugly?"
"Sister, this is a real edible rose. The roses we see in the flower shop are roses."
"Rose? I remember that the rose my grandma raised was broken by you and then beaten, right?"
Xu Hongdou sighed again: "What I picked was the rose from my uncle's house. The one grown at my grandma's house is called oleander."
Xu Hongmi didn’t believe it: “It’s true or not, how could I remember it’s the rose?”
…………
Soon, the group came to Xie Zhiyao's friend's organic farm, which was quite large.
Zhou Chen walked around the farm with the little bell, but the bell didn't recognize anyone and started running with Zhou Chen.
Zhou Chen has hundreds of years of experience. He can recognize almost all the plants on the farm. He uses a bell to identify people one by one. Whenever he talks about a crop, he will tell some short stories and stories about it.
common sense.
After a while, Lingdang looked at Zhou Chen with admiration. In her young mind, Zhou Chen, who knew so much, was really amazing.
Zhou Chen gets along very well with Lingdang. This is naturally his ability and charm. He has experienced more than a dozen worlds and has many children of his own. He is also a national-level pediatrician. Taking a five-year-old child to him
It's really too simple.
Xu Hongdou originally thought about taking her niece around to identify her, but soon discovered that Zhou Chen was much better than her, and Lingdang didn't need her as an aunt at all, so she walked to Xu Hongmi, and the two sisters watched from a distance.
Zhou Chen and Ling Dang got along very happily.
"You are a really good boyfriend. You see how much Ling Dang likes her. They have only known each other for a day."
"I didn't expect him to know so much and be so patient even with children."
Xu Hongdou didn't expect Zhou Chen to have such a side. Although she had seen Zhou Chen get along well with Xiao Hulu and the other naughty kids before, they were outsiders after all, and Xiao Lingdang was her niece.
Xu Hongmi said: "Chenxing Capital is very powerful. He is worth at least hundreds of millions. I didn't expect that such a big boss could be friends with you."
Xu Hongdou also said with emotion: "I didn't expect that I came here just to relax. I didn't expect that I would meet him, let alone that we would become boyfriend and girlfriend."
"Hongdou, although I just met him, I can see that he is a nice person. Although he is rich, he is not difficult to get along with. I can see that he is a bit arrogant, but this is normal, especially the way he looks at you, even if
Even I can see that he really cares about you."
"Really? You can see this?"
Xu Hongmi rolled her eyes at Xu Hongdou angrily: "I'm not blind. Anyway, your sister and I are also married. I can still tell if someone cares about you. The way he looks at you is that he cares a lot.
His appearance, and he is much more handsome than your previous ex-boyfriend."
Xu Hongdou said: "What kind of ex-boyfriend is that? I haven't met him a few times in total, and I haven't even called him a few times."
