Lei Junshan was very busy with work and did not spend much time in Taoyuan Village. Xiao Lingye was still in school. At the same time, he had to follow his master, who was now his big brother, to learn professional skills.
The next day, they returned to the capital and left Lei Zongze behind.
Lei Zongze did not reject that at all. On the contrary, he liked it very much. Everyone here, except for Xiao Lingye who was a little repulsive, was so good and kind.
He liked the room that Mother Xiao had arranged for him. After seeing the decorations in the room, Lei Zongze finally understood why Xiao Lingye had asked him what color he liked.
Lei Zongze was slightly moved.
Even his big brother did not care about him so much. Xiao Lingye and his family had meticulously arranged such a comfortable room for his arrival.
"Second uncle, where do you want to go now?" Xiao Letong held the hand of his new second uncle. On his red face, his expression was cute and innocent.
Lei Zongze smiled and said, "Bring me to the mountain to see the peach blossoms today!"
Xiao Letong nodded and said, "Okay!"
Then, Xiao Letong and Xiao Ling held Lei Zongze's hand on both sides and went up the mountain to see the peach blossoms.
Before they reached the foot of the mountain, they raised their heads and saw pink flowers. From time to time, there were pink petals fluttering in the wind.
"So beautiful!" Lei Zongze raised his head and exclaimed. Then, he saw a white flower among the ten thousand pink flowers and asked curiously, "What is the white flower in the middle of the peach blossoms?"
"Those are pear and plum flowers!" Xiao Letong replied with a smile, "Most of the trees planted on the mountain are fruit trees. We also call them fruit forests. There are all kinds of fruit trees in the fruit forests. Second Uncle, let me tell you, the fruit trees on our mountain also have apple trees in the north!"
Lei Zongze was slightly surprised and said, "Apple trees? Aren't apples only planted in the north? How can they be planted here?"
The fruits in the south would only be delicious if they were produced in the south. Similarly, the fruits in the north would only be delicious if they were produced in the north.
On the other hand, if the fruits in the south were transplanted to the north to be planted, not only would they not be able to be planted, but even if they were planted, the fruits they produced would definitely not be delicious.
However, the Taoyuan Village was clearly in the south, yet the apple tree was planted here.
"Can this apple tree produce apples? Can the apples it produces be eaten?" Lei Zongze asked curiously.
Xiao Letong was already used to his fuss. He nodded and said, "Yes. Second uncle, the apples grown here are actually very delicious. My mother has hired a technical expert to help us. Also, second uncle, let me tell you, not only did our family grow apples, but we also planted tropical fruits like durian and pineapple. Aren't you surprised?"
Lei Zongze was indeed surprised. He said in surprise, "They can be planted and even bear fruit?" He felt that Taoyuan village was really magical.
"Tong Tong, tell second uncle how many kinds of fruits are planted on this mountain?" Lei Zongze asked curiously.
Xiao Letong said with a smile, "I remember my mother said that there are 108 kinds of fruits!"
"Dang!" Lei Zongze suddenly staggered, and then his expression became incredulous. He confirmed again, "108 kinds? That many?"
Xiao Letong nodded and said, "Yes. However, most of them are peaches. Some fruits are only grown to eat, and some fruits are sold in the shop."
Lei Zongze knew that the shop he was talking about was Green Fresh Supermarkets. The things produced in Taoyuan Village were all sold in Green Fresh Supermarkets.
However, after eating the food of the Xiao family, he felt that the vegetables and fruits sold in the supermarkets were inferior. The Xiao family knew how to enjoy themselves. They would keep the best stuff for themselves.
Lei Zongze said with a smile, "Alright. Today, we will go and admire the peach blossoms. I also want to see other fruits bloom! Come, Let's go up the mountain!"
"Okay, let's go up the mountain!" Xiao Letong shouted happily, "Second uncle, let me tell you. The flowers on the mountain are not only pink but also yellow, red, purple-red, white, and so on. They're all very beautiful."
When they reached the mountain, Lei Zongze closed his eyes and took a sniff. He said, "It smells so good. I finally feel the fragrance of fresh flowers."
In the forest, there were many tourists. The flowers on the trees were meant to bear fruit. Like the peach blossoms in winter, they were not allowed to be pulled.
The security here was not as tough as in the winter peach blossom forest, where every peach tree was equipped with a sensor and a voice-activated reminder. However, there were staff members patrolling the mountains from time to time. Once they found tourists pulling the flowers on the trees, the consequences would be quite serious.
However, the video of dancing in the rain of flowers was too beautiful. Some tourists couldn't help themselves but violate the rules.
Most of such actions would be caught, but there were a lot of people who were lucky enough to escape.
Lei Zongze recognized the peach blossoms because they were shown on television quite often. However, he was not familiar with the other flowers.
"Tong Tong, what is this white flower?"
"Second uncle, didn't I tell you just now that this is a pear blossom?"
"A sudden evening breeze brings thousands of pear tree blooms."
"Second uncle, you can even recite poetry!"
Lei Zongze was somewhat speechless as he said, "We studied this in school. We must know about it."
Xiao Letong nodded and said, "Oh, is that so?"
Xiao Letong said, "Second uncle, how about we play a game?"
Lei Zongze asked in amusement, "What game?"
"Every time we find a new fruit flower, you have to recite a poem, okay?" Xiao Letong raised his head and looked at Lei Zongze with his round and sparkling eyes.
Lei Zongze said in a very awkward manner, "I... I don't know that many poems!" He was a bad student, to begin with. He was able to remember a few ancient poems in primary and middle school because of the strict supervision of the primary and middle school teachers.
At this time, Xiao Ling asked curiously, "Then, second uncle, what do you know?"
Lei Zongze, "..." Okay, that hurt.
He realized that other than his field of expertise, he didn't seem to know anything else.
Lei Zongze squatted down and patted their heads. He said with a smile, "Second uncle really doesn't know ancient poetry. Why don't we appreciate these flowers properly, okay?" But in his heart, he secretly decided that after he knew about each type of fruit flower, he would go online and find out what poems could be matched.
He had let the children down once, but he couldn't let them down again.
Xiao Letong didn't make things difficult for his second uncle. He nodded happily and said, "Okay, I'll be second uncle's tour guide."
Lei Zongze nodded happily and said, "Okay, thank you, Tong Tong!"
...
"I wonder how Tong Tong is doing with Xiao Ze?" Mother Xiao asked Father Xiao.
Father Xiao smiled and said, "Are you seriously worried about Tong Tong?"
"No," Mother Xiao shook her head and said worriedly, "I heard from Ye 'Er that Xiao Ze is now in his rebellious stage. They might do things differently."
Father Xiao said in amusement, "You worry too much. Xiao Ze has been in our house for two or three days. Look at his behavior. He's sensible and polite. How is he in a rebellious phase?"
Mother Xiao thought about it and said with a smile, "Indeed. This child is a sensible and polite child. It's just that he doesn't seem to be on good terms with our son. Ye 'Er said that they got into a fight when he went to Junshan's company for the first time."
"Boys will always fight." Father Xiao said in amusement. "After coming here, didn't their relationship become better?"
"Yes! You're right."
