Chapter 918: Chapter 915: Did the Young Couple Just Get Married?

Two young ladies and an Eldest Young Master, who had only ever had to open their mouths to eat, unexpectedly spent half an hour wandering the Food Area for the first time, filling up a shopping cart with an abundance of meats and fruits.

Their conversation basically went like this, "Huh? Are there actually fresh winter mushrooms? I thought they were all dried goods."

The third Young Master of the Yan family, who always enjoyed teasing Tong Xiaohua these days, also couldn’t dare to show even a hint of disdain at this moment, because he shared the same thoughts as Tong Xiaohua.

Tong Xiaohua had just thrown a box of fresh winter mushrooms into the cart when Young Master Yan picked up a bag of baby bok choy to compare it with regular bok choy, "I always thought baby bok choy was just the heart of the regular bok choy, but it seems that’s not the case."

A nearby auntie couldn’t help but observe the two young people’s conversation and teasingly said with a smile, "You two just got married, didn’t you? Clearly, you don’t know anything about these things!"

Tong Xiaohua’s face turned red all of a sudden, but Yan Bo was quite pleased, nodding in acknowledgment to the auntie with a smile, "Yes, we really don’t know anything and are learning slowly."

Seeing that the couple looked handsome and pretty, the auntie took a liking to them, and her tone became much friendlier, "No worries, it’s like this for everyone when they first get married, fumbling your way through daily life and still living harmoniously. The key is to work together in unity."

After speaking, she glanced at the varieties of meats and fruits in their shopping cart and enthusiastically taught them numerous methods to select meats and fruits.

Yan Bo nodded while following the auntie’s instruction to replace most of the ingredients in the shopping cart with better ones.

Having imparted her knowledge without asking for anything in return, the auntie happily waved goodbye to them and pushed her cart toward the Seafood Area.

Yan Bo and Tong Xiaohua exchanged a look and, in perfect agreement, caught up with the auntie and selected some seafood such as fish, shrimp, and crab. By the time they left the supermarket with several large bags of ingredients, it was five minutes to nine o’clock.

Xiao Yang, who had been waiting outside all along, hurried over to take the large bags they were carrying, but Yan Bo stepped aside, "You help Xiao Hua with hers."

As a full-grown man, he surely could carry a few bags of stuff.

Xiao Yang helped to load the ingredients into the trunk of the car, "Young Master, what did you guys buy? There’s so much!"

Yan Bo also felt that he and Tong Xiaohua had outdone themselves, "Haha, I think we practically bought everything from the supermarket’s Food Area."

"There are only a few of you, can you finish all this food?" Xiao Yang asked, eyes full of doubt as he looked at the trunk filled with ingredients.

"It’s fine, we’re staying for a couple of days. If we don’t finish it today, we’ll eat it tomorrow."

Yan Bo knew they couldn’t finish all the food in one meal, but the key point was that he and Tong Xiaohua wanted to eat everything they saw, so they didn’t bother to fuss and simply bought whatever they wanted.

The car met up with Old Master Tong and his wife at the entrance to the village and headed to the resort, one following the other.

In the car, Yan Bo dialed Ling Qingyun’s phone.

"Ling Young Master, it’s me!"

"I heard you just hired a very skilled chef, can I borrow him for a couple of days?"

"Sure, thanks ha, I’ll send you the address in a bit, please arrange for someone to send him over."

After Yan Bo ended the call, he was unsurprised to meet Tong Xiaohua’s teasing smile.

"Young Master Yan, is this your solution?"

Tong Xiaohua had assumed that Yan Bo was planning to ask a friend for cooking advice and then try it out for themselves.

But it turned out, he had never intended to give it a try and instead simply borrowed another family’s chef.

"Yes, the four of us, none of us know how to cook. Without a chef, relying on just the four of us, I’m afraid we won’t even have food by tomorrow!"

Tong Xiaohua fell silent, because she felt Yan Bo was right.

The resort was neither too far nor too near to L City, and with traffic flowing smoothly, the car gently ascended the mountainside highway around ten o’clock.

The bodyguards were responsible for carrying the luggage, whereas Master Tong, his wife, and Tong Xiaohua walked ahead with Yan Bo.

"Xiao Yan, the boss here is a brother of mine who retired a few years ago. With nothing much to do, he spent a few years building this resort, which will open to the public next month. You can bring your friends over for a visit," Master Tong said.

Not until that moment did Master Tong bring up the boss of the resort to Yan Bo.

"Uncle Tong, I will. I’m planning an exchange meeting next month and was worried about finding a good venue. This place looks great. Could you help me ask the boss later? If it’s possible, I’d like to make an early reservation for the venue," Yan Bo said.

Tong Xiaohua looked at Yan Bo in surprise, feeling that his flattery seemed rather awkward, so she discreetly tugged at his arm.

Yan Bo looked down and gave her a reassuring glance.

Master Tong was naturally very pleased to hear this. "Of course, of course. I’ll introduce you two later, and you can discuss the details yourselves," he said.

Just as Master Tong finished speaking, they heard a hearty laugh coming from ahead, "Big brother, sister-in-law, welcome!"

A man of average height and middle age came out from the lobby.

Master Tong and the man gave each other a perfunctory hug, exchanged pleasantries, and then the man’s gaze finally turned toward Tong Xiaohua.

"Hello, Uncle Zhang!" Tong Xiaohua stepped forward with Yan Bo, greeting him with great docility.

"Tsk tsk, it’s been a few years, and little Hua has grown into a beautiful young lady. I’m lucky you came with your dad today, or I wouldn’t have recognized you if you stood in front of me," the man said.

Tong Xiaohua smiled, "I’ve grown up, but Uncle Zhang, you’re still as young and handsome as you were years ago."

Zhang Chengzhi laughed heartily, pleased, "You girl, your words are still as sweet as ever. And this is...?"

His gaze finally shifted from Tong Xiaohua to Yan Bo.

"Uncle Zhang, this is my boyfriend, Yan Bo."

"Hello, Uncle Zhang!" Understanding the deep connection this man had with the Tong family, Yan Bo’s manner was very respectful.

After the introductions, Zhang Chengzhi invited the four of them into the lobby and then led them to his office.

"Sit in my office and have some tea while I have a waiter take Xiao Yang and the others to settle the luggage," Zhang Chengzhi said, and then he stepped out.

Soon, a female waiter in her early twenties came in with a tray.

On the tray, aside from tea, there were also some fresh fruits.

After pouring tea for everyone, the waiter pointed to the fruit plate and said,

"Master Tong, Mrs. Tong, these oranges and star fruits are all freshly produced and sold here on our property; they’re very sweet."

Yan Bo took an orange, peeled it, and passed it to Shen Weiyao.

"Aunt Tong, you should try it."

Shen Weiyao took the orange, split it in two, and handed half to Master Tong.

Master Tong took it and in the blink of an eye, he had gobbled up half an orange. After a few chews, he nodded in satisfaction, "The orange is quite sweet. It seems Ah Zhi is doing a good job."

By this time, Yan Bo had already peeled another one and was handing it to Tong Xiaohua.

"Let’s ask Uncle Zhang later if he’ll let us go pick some oranges," he suggested.
