Xu Guochang’s family of three followed Xiao Xiaoming to Xiao Jinli’s house.
There was no change to the Xiao family’s house.
“Sister Jin Li, I brought the guests here.”
Before entering the yard, Xiao Xiaoming started yelling.
In the yard, a cute child was playing with water in a pool, Xiao Jinli was sitting at a stone table, brewing a pot of hot tea, obviously preparing to greet the guests.
Seeing this quiet, tidy and beautiful yard, Xu Mengmeng’s eyes lit up, showing her admiration.
As soon as Xu Guochang stepped inside, he respectfully greeted, “Miss Xiao!”
Xiao Jinli put down the purple clay teapot and smiled, nodding, “President Xu, you’re here.”
It puzzled both Mother Xu and her daughter why their husband (father) was so respectful to Miss Xiao.
To be sure, ever since he became president of the Shenfeng Group, it was always others who showed respect to him.
Xu Guochang introduced to Xiao Jinli, “Miss Xiao, this is my wife, and this is my daughter. Wife, Mengmeng, this is Miss Xiao.”
Mother Xu and her daughter also showed their respect, calling out, “Miss Xiao!”
Xiao Jinli nodded and said, “Hmm, please have a seat, all of you!”
Xu Guochang nodded and then said to his wife and daughter, “Let’s sit.”
Xiao Jinli poured them a cup of tea and said, “Try this tea, everyone!”
Xu Guochang’s family of three had already noticed the fragrant tea, and they wanted to try it.
Therefore, without any hesitation, they picked up the teacups and took a sip.
Xu Mengmeng, surprised, exclaimed, “This tea smells so good! I’ve never had such fragrant tea.”
Mother Xu couldn’t help but sigh, “It’s so fragrant.”
Xu Guochang was equally amazed, “It really is fragrant. Miss Xiao, your tea-making skills are unparalleled.”
Xiao Jinli chuckled, “It’s not that my tea-making skills are great, but that the water here is good. No matter who makes the tea, it’s never bad!”
Xu Mengmeng’s eyes lit up, and she asked in astonishment, “Really?”
Xiao Jinli nodded and said, “Let Miss Xu try our well water. Jiang Yifan, go to the kitchen and bring some cold water.”
Xiao Jinli asked Jiang Yifan, who was playing with water in the pool, to fetch water.
Xu Mengmeng felt a little reluctant to trouble such a young child and said, “Let me do it myself.”
Xiao Jinli shook her head and said, “No need. He’s just idling around. It’s good for him to attend to guests.”
Xu Guochang and the others, . Aren’t children of three or four years old supposed to be idle?
Jiang Yifan stood up from the pool and complained, “Mom, do you call me just because I’m the youngest? Are you bullying me for my age?”
Xu Guochang was shocked when he heard the child call Xiao Jinli “Mommy”.
He stuttered, “Miss Xiao, is this… this your son?”
If he remembered correctly, Miss Xiao was only nineteen years old.
Does she already have such a big son at the age of nineteen?
Xiao Jinli responded, “It’s because you’re the youngest in the family and the easiest to order around. Now, stop complaining, and if I ask you to fetch water, go fetch water.”
Jiang Yifan grimaced, “You’re the only mother who treats a kid like this.”
Xiao Jinli smiled at him, “You’re not my son!”
Jiang Yifan,
