Chapter 368: Two Professors

Translator: Lonelytree
Xiao Zhengyang was arranging the work for the villagers. Some were digging holes, and others were building fences.
Xiao Zhengyang walked to the two professors and said respectfully, “Professor Yu, Professor Ji, do you want to sit down and rest for a while in this hot weather?”
Xiao Zhengyang brought a small square tea table and a few small stools from his home and placed them under a big tree.
He bought some high-grade tea to serve the two professors.
To Xiao Zhengyang and the others, they were professors who had journeyed a long distance to help them so they couldn’t be mistreated.
However, the two professors were sensible people.
They were extremely angry when they were suddenly kidnapped here to guide villagers to plant fruit trees, However, when they saw Old Master Gong in the same village and knew that the person who ‘invited’ them was related to Old Master Gong, their temper disappeared immediately.
They respected and admired Old Master Gong very much.
There were rumors in the capital that Old Master Gong’s health was getting worse. The Gong Family’s second branch kept angering him, and he was sent to the emergency rescue several times already.
For this reason, Gong Tianhao was very angry.
After that, there came a rumor that Old Master Gong was dying from anger. Many people wanted to visit him, but they were all rejected. They said that Old Master Gong was recuperating, and it was inconvenient for people to disturb him. Therefore, many people stopped coming.
After all, they were not related to the Gong Family. If they insisted on visiting Old Master Gong, their purposes would be questioned.
Normally, Professor Ji and Professor Yu wouldn’t have the right to know Old Master Gong. They were lucky to have met Old Master Gong at a banquet. At the time, Old Master Gong indeed looked quite frail.
Therefore, when they saw the healthy old man in the yard, they were shocked. Then, they were happy for him.
Old Master Gong was obviously in good health. Why were there rumors that Old Master Gong was dying in the capital?
Later, they found out that Old Master Gong did suffer from poor health a while back. However, after coming to Taoyuan Village, his health improved tremendously. Even his attending physician felt that it was unbelievable.
In the past, Old Master Gong was fragile and frail, but now, Old Master Gong looked like he was going to live to be over a hundred years old.
“Elder Gong!” The moment they arrived at the Gong residence and saw Old Master Gong, Yu Jiadong and Ji Nianhua called out respectfully.
They were still confused about why Old Master Gong would appear in this remote village.
Seeing the two of them, Old Master Gong put down the watering can in his hand and said with a smile, “It’s Little Yu and Little Ji, I’m really sorry to have suddenly invited you here.”
Yu Jiadong and Ji Yanghua were flattered and immediately said, “Elder Gong, you’re really too polite. You don’t need to apologize. If we had known it was you who wanted to see us, we would have come without a second thought.”
Elder Gong shook his head and said, “Actually, it wasn’t me who wanted to look for you. It was my little brat.”
Professor Yu and Professor Ji opened their mouths slightly and were a little puzzled. “It was Young Master Gong?!”
Then again, when they thought about it, it made sense. In the capital, who dared to launch a kidnapping in broad daylight?
Old Master Gong explained, “Do you know that my brat is pursuing the Xiao Family’s daughter?”
“Young Master Gong is pursuing someone?” When the two experts heard this news, they were dumbfounded.
Young Master Gong was the prime bachelor of the country. Once he hooked his finger, women would pounce on him. However, Young Master Gong, the noble master was actually pursuing a woman from the countryside?
If this news were to spread to the capital, it would probably shock everyone in the noble circle.
While the two professors digested this shocking news, Old Master Gong continued, “Currently, the girl has contracted a few mountains and plans to plant some fruit trees, However, they require some experts in this area. That’s how my brat thought of the two of you.
“That was what happened. I apologize for my brat’s recklessness.”
Hearing Old Master Gong’s words, Yu Jiadong and Ji Yanghua felt even more flattered. At the same time, they were even more shocked that Old Master Gong sounded like he approved of this countrywoman.
How could a farmer’s daughter be worthy of Young Master Gong or the Gong Family?
Of course, these were not questions they could ask.
Yu Jiadong and Ji Yanghua immediately waved their hands and said, “Elder Gong, don’t say that. You’re too polite.”
Elder Gong didn’t say anything else. Then, he said, “Little Yu and Little Ji, I know you two are the authoritative experts in the study of fruit tree planting.
“Tm sorry to suddenly invite you here, but I hope that you can do your best to help the villagers here.”
“We definitely will.” Little Yu and Little Ji immediately nodded and replied, “Elder Gong, we will do our best.”
Old Master Gong nodded and said, “Then, I’ll place my hope in you. I hope to see the mountains full of fruit trees soon.”
Yu Jiadong and Ji Yanghua were even more astonished.
What did the Xiao family do to deserve Old Master Gong’s approval? He had done everything to help them! Of course, this was just a small matter to the Gong Family.
After Yu Jiadong and Ji Yanghua met Old Master Gong, Yue Qilin brought them to the Xiao family.
However, before they entered the courtyard, they almost stumbled when they saw the scene in the courtyard.
Yu Jiadong nudged Ji Yanghua’s arm with his elbow and asked in astonishment, “Ol Ji, am I seeing things? Why do I see Young Master Gong serving a woman?”
He saw Young Master Gong patiently peeling fruits and pouring water for a woman. This was not something Young Master Gong should do.
Ji Yanghua also said with surprise, “Ol Yu, I don’t think your eyes are tricking you. I see the same thing too.”
They stood at the entrance of the courtyard for a short while. After Young Master Gong finished peeling the fruit, he handed it to a woman. The woman was sitting with her back facing them, She had long, straight hair, and judging from her sitting posture, she was a tall and slender person.
This must be the daughter of the Xiao Family Old Master Gong had mentioned.
Yue Qilin was already used to his boss serving Xiao Lingyu. He also expected the surprise of the two professors.
He said to the two of them, “Professor Yu, Professor Ji, this is the Xiao family. The few mountains that we saw on the plane are contracted by this family.”
Then, he entered the courtyard and said to Gong Tianhao respectfully, “Boss, Miss Xiao, Professor Yu and Professor Ji are here.”
Yu Jiadong and Ji Yanghua snapped out of it. They had really lost their composure. They quickly entered the courtyard and quickened their pace.
They really wanted to see this daughter of the Xiao Family for themselves. How charming she must be to make the noble Young Master Gong lower himself to serve her.
Gong Tianhao stood up. He smiled and said, “Professors, I am Gong Tianhao. Thank you for coming.”
At this moment, Xiao Lingyu suddenly turned to look at the two professors..
