Chapter 984: The Secret of Aging Gracefully

Translator: Lonelytree

After spending a day, Ian and the others finally understood the whole picture of Taoyuan Village.

Then, in the evening, they came back to look for Xiao Lingyu.

“Oh, you’re all back. How was it? Did you have a good time?” Xiao Lingyu saw them coming back and asked with a smile.

“Yes, we had a great time!” Ian and the others said with a smile, “This place is so beautiful that I don’t even want to leave. Also, the food in the gourmet canteen is so delicious!”

Xiao Lingyu said with a smile, “Yes, but it’s impossible that you don’t want to leave. After all, with your work ability and work experience, you’ll probably be arranged to manage foreign markets. However, the food will not be a problem. Every branch of our green fresh group will have its own canteen. The ingredients in the canteen are all from our company’s products. We also hire many chefs with superb culinary skills to cook. Therefore, you can rest assured about this.”

Ian and the others nodded, indicating that they knew. After all, they had heard of this matter before.

Xiao Lingyu asked directly, “Then do you have any requests or thoughts?”

Ian thought for a moment and said, “We want a family apartment here, can we?”

Xiao Lingyu nodded, “We give preferential treatment to high-level managers here. Those who don’t have family members can stay in single-person dormitories. Those who have family members can stay in a couple’s room or a family room. A couple’s room is slightly bigger than a single-person dormitory. Furniture and the like are all available. As for a family room, there are two rooms, one living room, and three rooms, one living room. There’s nothing bigger. After all, this is a company, and the local resources are limited. It’s impossible for me to build a villa for my employees.”

Ian and the others looked at Xiao Lingyu.

Xiao Lingyu said, “I’ve arranged for you to work abroad. If you’re willing to bring your family over, of course, I can give you a house.”

Most of the company’s top managers flew all over the country. Therefore, Xiao Lingyu did not interfere with whether they brought their family over or not. It was up to them.

If they were willing to bring their family members, as long as the company investigated and confirmed that they were family members, they would approve it.

Why would they have to do an investigation?

Of course, it was to prevent these higher-ups from bringing their mistresses, illegitimate children, and the like here.

Although she did not interfere with the freedom of these subordinates’ private lives, she absolutely did not allow anyone to ruin the atmosphere of Taoyuan village.

After all, once one of them took over the illegitimate children of his mistress, there would be a second and third. Then what would the Green Fresh group become? What would Taoyuan village become? A gathering place for illegitimate children and mistresses?

Therefore, the company’s family apartment would only allow proper family members to move in.

Of course, the higher-ups of the Green Fresh group were very self-aware and understood the boss’s personality very well.

Even if they had mistresses and illegitimate children outside, no matter how much they doted on these mistresses and illegitimate children, they would never bring them to Taoyuan Village. If they were to be caught by president Xiao or president Xiao’s family, they might be fired.

Xiao Lingyu asked, “If you are willing to bring your family over, I welcome them. Of course, I am willing to give you a family room. However, I heard from Bruce that your families live in big villas and are served by servants. Will they get used to living here?”

Of course, Xiao Lingyu asked this out of curiosity and not because of a reason to refuse.

This was indeed a problem.

Ian and the rest frowned.

They were willing to live here, but their family members were already used to being served by others. They had to do everything by themselves when they came here. After all, there was no place for the servants to stay here. It was impossible for them to hire so many servants and nannies. At most, they could hire a part-time worker to come over and clean up the place.

Xiao Lingyu gave them a small suggestion, “How about this? You should bring your family members here to take a look first. If they are willing to stay here and there are no problems, I will give you the house. How about that?”

Ian and the others thought for a while and said, “Yes, that would be the best!”

“I believe that my family members will definitely fall in love with this place.”

Xiao Lingyu looked at the time and stood up to tidy up the table. She said, “It’s time for dinner. Let’s go. I’ll bring you guys to my house for dinner!”

She had already informed her family that she would be entertaining a few foreign guests tonight.

Ian was a little surprised as he asked, “CEO Xiao, are you talking about going to your house for dinner?”

Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “Yes. My house is right here in the village. Is there a problem with going to my house for dinner?”

Ian and the others quickly shook their heads and said, “No problem, no problem!”

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Don’t worry. The food at my house will definitely be unforgettable to you after eating it once.”

Ian and the others’ eyes lit up as they asked, “So, president Xiao, your family’s food is better than the food in the gourmet hall, right?”

Xiao Lingyu rolled her eyes in amusement and said snappily, “Of course. I’m not showing off, but you’ll know that going to my house for a meal is a kind of reward for the employees of the company.”

Her subordinates all chose to go to her house for a meal instead of a monetary reward. The food that her mother cooked was truly delicious.

When Xiao Lingyu brought Ian and the others back home, she saw that her family had already returned and the food had already been arranged.

“Mommy, you’re back.” Xiao Letong was the first to rush out. He hugged her leg and called out.

Xiao Lingyu knew that her son had already lived for more than two thousand years. However, to her, no matter how old her son was, he was still a young child.

“Mommy!” Xiao Ling hugged Xiao Lingyu’s other leg and looked at Xiao Lingyu with his big eyes.

Xiao Lingyu bent down slightly and gently patted their heads. She smiled and said, “Yes, Tong Tong and Ling ‘Er are both obedient.”

Grandma Xiao walked over with a smile and said, “The two of you, the moment you see Mommy, you run over and hug mommy’s legs. How is your mommy going to walk like that?”

Hearing Grandma Xiao’s words, the two children stuck out their tongues.

“Hehe, let go of Mommy and wash your hands for dinner,” Grandma Xiao said again.

Then, Grandma Xiao smiled and looked at the five golden-haired and blue-eyed foreigners behind Xiao Lingyu. She asked, “Yu ‘Er, the five of them are the guests tonight, right?”

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Yes.”

Then, Xiao Lingyu introduced the five of them, “This is my grandmother.”

Ian and the others looked at their grandmother, who was so young, and their eyes revealed some surprise. They exclaimed, “Ah, grandmother? Oh My God, your grandmother is very young.”

They were speaking in English, so of course, grandmother Xiao could not understand them. She looked at Xiao Lingyu and then looked at them with a smile.

Xiao Lingyu said, “My grandma is seventy-five years old this year. Grandma, they said that you are very young.”

Grandma Xiao was already used to being called young.

Actually, it could be said that all the elders in Taoyuan village were getting younger and younger.

Two years ago, Grandma Xiao looked to be in her seventies and sixties, but now, she looked even younger. She looked only in her fifties or sixties, and there was not a single strand of white hair on her head.

Grandma Xiao said to them, “If you eat well and sleep well, with a good attitude, you will get younger and younger!”

Xiao Lingyu explained to them, “Grandma said that if you eat well and sleep well, with a good attitude, you will get younger and younger.”

Hearing this, Ian was full of doubt.

Was that really the case?

Then, they glanced around and saw a few elders sitting in the courtyard. However, these elders looked very young.

Therefore, they looked at Xiao Lingyu with doubt.

Xiao Lingyu smiled and introduced, “These two are my grandfathers. One is 78 years old, and the other is 82 years old.”

Hearing their ages, Ian and the others were so shocked that their jaws dropped.

“Huh?! How can they still look so young?” Ian asked in disbelief.

An old man in his seventies or eighties, looking like he was only sixty years old!
