They first drove towards Ji City, with the master and mistress talking to the kids about the events of those tis, sharing amusing stories about the original owner. Luo Qiao was also listening attentively, and the car was filled with occasional laughter.
By noon, they reached Ji City. Without going into the city, they headed directly to a local branch of ’Jinyuan Garden,’ where everyone got out to stretch their legs and planned to have lunch there.
Since Luo Qiao had called ahead, everything was well-prepared upon their arrival.
The staff at the restaurant received the notification yesterday and couldn’t believe that the third owner would be dining at their place on the second day of the Lunar New Year, but that’s what the notice said.
Today, all the employees were very enthusiastic and attentive in their service. None of them had seen this third owner before, and they were afraid of making any mistakes.
When Luo Qiao and her family showed up, they truly surprised everyone.
No one expected such an attractive family, and that the third owner had five children, all of whom were handso and beautiful.
The most surprising thing was that the third owner didn’t look like she had kids at all. She looked like a college student, with fair, soft skin and a figure comparable to a model. Her husband was tall and handso, full of masculine charm—truly a high-profile family.
The manager ca to greet them, so nervous that his hands were trembling a bit. Luo Qiao jokingly said, "We’re just passing by for a al, so feel free to treat us as you usually would."
The manager didn’t expect the third owner to be so approachable, and instantly felt much more at ease.
After they were led to a pre-prepared private room, the dishes were quickly served.
Once most of the dishes were on the table, Luo Qiao said to the manager, "Please book four hourly rooms for us at the neighboring hotel. We will head over in about forty minutes, thank you."
They had eaten breakfast early, and were genuinely hungry, so everyone was eating rrily. Observing how the kids ate, it seed the etiquette lessons they took earlier hadn’t gone to waste; even now, they maintained their composure.
After finishing the al, they went next door to the hotel.
They agreed to rest for an hour and then set off again.
Anyway, they planned to stay in the county tonight and visit the farm early tomorrow. There was no rush; letting the four elders rest before continuing would be just fine.
Before leaving, Luo Qiao wrapped a 5,000-yuan red envelope and said to the manager, "Apart from the room expenses, use the rest to buy so New Year gifts for the staff. This is my personal token of appreciation and a New Year greeting."
The sending staff responded, "Wishing President Luo and the family a Happy New Year, and may all your wishes co true in the New Year."
Luo Qiao smiled and waved goodbye to everyone. After the manager and so staff watched Luo Qiao’s car leave, they cheered excitedly, "Oh my God, I really t the third owner."
After calming down, everyone clamored the manager to check how much money was in the red envelope.
Besides the 200 yuan for the room, there were 4,600 yuan. Everyone clamored to discuss whether to buy items or share the money.
Actually, Luo Qiao hadn’t planned to give the red envelope initially. It was a spur-of-the-mont decision, prompted by the festive atmosphere upon arrival.
Five hours later, the car stopped at the best hotel in the county. They booked rooms for a short rest before heading downstairs together to find a place for dinner.
Yang Jiancheng beca quite excited: "The farm isn’t far from here. I used to co here frequently to get dicine back in the day. The changes here are indeed significant."
Feng Shumin agreed, "I still rember how you always brought so at buns from the state-run restaurants every ti."
The two exchanged a glance and burst into laughter.
