After returning to the Taoyuan Village, the Xiao family was very happy when they saw how good the business of the supermarket in City Z was.

However, after a while, they became worried again.

“The supermarket has a discount for the first three days of opening. Will the previous customers be scared away?” Grandma Xiao began to worry again.

Grandpa Xiao didn’t have such worries. He said cheerfully, “Old Woman, didn’t you say that you trust your grandchildren? Don’t worry so much.

“Based on what our eldest granddaughter said, the supermarket is going for the high-end market. The main audience is the rich. The rich don’t care about the money for vegetables.”

Grandma Xiao relaxed her brows and said with a smile, “Old man, you’re right. We don’t have to worry.”

“Hey, Yu ‘Er is back!” Grandma Xiao saw Xiao Lingyu’s car driving back.

“Yu ‘Er is back for Tong ‘Er,” Grandpa Xiao said, “But it’s not good rushing back and forth like this. It’s too tiring.”

“Indeed!” Grandma Xiao agreed. “Let’s discuss it later and see if we can buy or rent a house in City Z. When Yu ‘Er goes to City Z, Qiuying can go with her.”

“The weather is still cold. Yu ‘Er might get a cold rushing around like this,” Grandpa Xiao said, “Yes, we should discuss buying or renting a house with Yu ‘Er. If it’s a matter of money, we can provide her with our retirement funds.”

Grandma Xiao agreed, “Okay! The houses in City Z are expensive, but we can rent a small suite.”

While they were talking, Xiao Lingyu drove to the front of the courtyard.

Seeing her grandparents standing at the door, she called out, “Grandpa and Grandma.”

The two elders smiled and said, “Yu ‘Er, welcome back!”

Xiao Lingyu came back early in the morning and did not have breakfast yet.

Grandma Xiao immediately went to the kitchen and made simple fried egg noodles for Xiao Lingyu. She smiled and said, “Come, have some breakfast.”

Although Grandma Xiao’s cooking skills were not as good as that of her second daughter-in-law, she was much better than Xiao Lingyu and the others.

“Thank you, Grandma!” Xiao Lingyu said with a smile.

While Xiao Lingyu was eating the noodles, Grandma Xiao said, “Yu ‘Er, your grandfather and I were discussing just now. We are going to take out our retirement money and buy you a house in City Z so that you won’t have to run back and forth like this anymore.”

Grandpa Xiao also nodded and said, “With the big supermarket opening in City Z, you need a place to stay in City Z.

“Of course, we hope we can get to buy a house instead of renting one.

“Even though our retirement funds aren’t much, it should be enough for the rental deposit.”

Hearing this, Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Grandpa, I was already planning to buy a house in City Z, but how could I use your retirement funds? That would be unfilial.”

Grandma Xiao hesitated for a moment and asked, “I heard that the houses in City Z are very expensive. Now that you have invested so much, do you still have the money to buy a house?”

Xiao Lingyu used her money to rent a mountain, build a factory, and open a supermarket. All in all, she had invested tens of millions. How could she still have the money?

Xiao Lingyu said, “Grandpa and Grandma, don’t worry. I don’t have much money now, but I can still buy a house with a down payment.”

With the monthly income of all her stores, a down payment was enough.

Grandma Xiao still wanted to say something, but Grandpa Xiao nodded and said, “Okay, when Yu ‘Er needs money, just let Grandpa and Grandma Know.”

“Okay, thank you, Grandpa and Grandma!”

…

Xiao Lingyu also told Zeng Yaozu about buying a house, so she wanted him to go take a look at houses when he had time.

Zeng Yaozu was a little speechless and said, “Sis, aren’t you afraid that I will scam you out of your house?”

Xiao Lingyu curled her lips and threatened, “Then you’ll never marry my Xinxin.”

“You’re ruthless!” Zeng Yaozu took a deep breath and said, “By the way, this is extra work. Don’t you have to give me a raise?”

Xiao Lingyu rolled her eyes and said, “Aren’t you being too greedy? I’ve already given you 20% of the shares of the supermarket. Your monthly salary is 12,000. What more do you want? Haha.”

Zeng Yaozu also rolled his eyes and said, “Hmph, just say that you’re stingy. Fine, I’ll look around for houses for you. After all, Xinxin will also need a place to stay when she moves here.”

Zeng Yaozu was not short of money at the moment. He could buy a house with no problem. Having said that, Zeng Yaozu asked seriously, “Ling Yu, do you think Xinxin will agree to my proposal now?”

Xiao Lingyu suggested seriously, “You can try!”

At this moment, Zeng Yaozu said, “How about this? Can you help me test Xin Xin’s attitude? And help me persuade her. I… I’m a little old now. I really want to get married.

“But I swear that after we get married, I won’t restrict her freedom. She can do whatever she wants.”

Xiao Lingyu thought for a moment and asked seriously, “Zeng Yaozu, as you said, you’re not getting younger. Will Xinxin be pressured to have children once she marries you?

“I remember Grandpa Zeng is quite old already. Doesn’t he want a great-grandchild? Plus, once Xinxin marries you, she will be the only mistress. She’ll need to take care of many things in the Zeng family.

“Will Xinxin still have the energy to focus on her work? Have you ever thought about this?”

Zeng Yaozu was silent for a moment before he said, “I have thought about all these problems. I will always respect Xinxin’s will. If she doesn’t want to have a child so soon, then it’s fine. I’ll handle everything from my family. Plus, my father and grandfather are very open-minded people. They will understand us.”

Xiao Lingyu sighed softly and said, “You said that you love Xinxin, so you’ll take care of everything. But what about Xinxin? Is she willing to let you sacrifice so many things for her?”

Zeng Yaozu fell silent again.

Xiao Lingyu thought for a moment and said, “Forget it. I’ll check on Xinxin’s attitude first. In fact, my best suggestion is for you to get engaged first.

“After the engagement, she’ll be your fiance. Even if you live together, no one will say anything. As for when to get married, you can discuss among yourselves.”

Zeng Yaozu nodded and said, “Okay, I get it!”

Xiao Lingyu put down the phone and smiled.

She had a lot of faith in Xiao Xinxin and Zeng Yaozu. Both of their parents knew that they were in a relationship, and neither parent had any objections. Zeng Yaozu was liked by Xiao Xinxin’s parents, and Xiao Xinxin was also liked by Zeng Yaozu’s parents.

Therefore, it would be no problem for them to get engaged.

However, the views of the older generation were different from those of the younger generation.

Even if Zeng Yaozu’s family and friends didn’t urge him to have children right after marriage, Xiao Xinxin’s family and friends would.

Zeng Yaozu had a family background and was very handsome. He was devoted to Xiao Xinxin now, but what about the future? Therefore, to keep a man’s heart, it was best to give birth to a child to tie him down.

Thinking of this, Xiao Lingyu smiled. Zeng Yaozu and Xiao Xinxin still had a lot to do with regard to their communication with the elders.

Otherwise, the elder’s interjection might ruin their relationship.

…

As the days passed, the business of Taoyuan Village’s Green Fresh Fruits and Vegetables Supermarket only increased.

The number of uncles and aunties dropped after the promotional period, but there were more young people.
