Chapter 582: Tomato and Egg Noodles

When An Xiaohui and the others were brought to a row of houses with white walls and red tiles, they were somewhat dumbfounded.
These houses were the employee dormitories that boss Xiao mentioned?
Her company treatment was too good!
The houses had just been built. They were brand new and arranged very neatly.
“This is my company’s dormitory.”
After Xiao Lingyu brought them to the room, she said to the visitors, “If you don’t mind, you can stay here. But if you want to stay in a hotel, you need to leave early in case there’s no room left. If not, I can help you ask some villagers and see if they have a room for you to stay in.”
An Xiaohui’s eyes lit up when she saw the dormitory. A discerning person could see that the dormitory was new and no one had stayed in it before.
The walls were white and the furniture was brand new. There was a kitchen and a bathroom. Most importantly, it was a two-person dormitory.
The conditions couldn’t be better.
On second thought, this was a rural area. The land and building fee wouldn’t be expensive. It should be fine for a rich person to prepare a dormitory for the employees.
“This is not bad.” An Xiaohui and the others said, “We’ll stay here for one night. Sorry to trouble you, Boss Xiao.”
Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “It’s no trouble. As for tonight’s dinner, if you don’t mind, you can also eat at my house. However, we can only make some simple dishes.”
“Thank you, boss Xiao.” An Xiaohui said again, “It’s okay. We just want to eat something that is not instant.” After all, people like them often ate biscuits and instant noodles. Sometimes, they wouldn’t even have hot water. Then, they had to eat dry noodles. Of course, they could make a fire to boil water, but it would be too much trouble just for food. Plus, they had to go hunt for firewood.
These people had decided to come to Taoyuan Village. They came from different parts of the country. Some had traveled for two days, some even longer. Therefore, they hadn’t had warm food in a long time already.
Xiao Lingyu brought them back to the Xiao family home.
On the way, An Xiaohui asked doubtfully, “Boss Xiao, you have built so many dorms, so you must have a lot of employees, right? Where is your company?”
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “My company has just been established not too long ago, but all the departments in the company have been put in place. It’s just that each department is still short of talent.”
The initial capital needed to register the company was only 50,000 RMB. That was easy for Xiao Lingyu.
Xiao Lingyu added, “My company currently focuses on agriculture and sales. As for tourism development, I plan to focus on the natural attraction of Taoyuan Village.”
An Xiaohui said, “Boss Xiao, I really think it’ll work. The scenery here is amazing, especially the rain of peach blossoms. It’s the ideal paradise.” After saying this, she paused and thought for a moment before continuing, “Nowadays, many young people in big cities usually have a lot of work pressure. Occasionally, when they have a break, they want to calm down and have a good rest. Taoyuan Village is a good destination.”
“Yeah, now that we’re here, we don’t want to leave.”A person at the side nodded in agreement.
“Taoyuan Village is really beautiful, especially peach blossoms and pear blossoms all over the mountains and plains.”
Xiao Lingyu listened quietly and smiled. “That’s the idea!” However, tourism development required time and a large amount of money.
Suddenly, someone twitched his nose and asked, “What’s that smell? It smells so good!”
The others also perked up their noses. They agreed, “Yes, it smells so good!”
“It smells like tomato eggs to me.”
“Yes, it smells like that to me too. But this is too fragrant.”
“It’s amazing!”
“Where does the smell come from?” Someone looked around. “It’s simply too fragrant.”
“Boss Xiao, can you tell which restaurant makes this dish?” Ye Feifei came over and asked. She swallowed her saliva and said, “It’s too fragrant.” She really wanted to eat it. Many people also looked at Xiao Lingyu.
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “If I’m not wrong, this fragrance probably comes from my house.”
“What?” The visitors were ecstatic.
“That’s great!” Someone exclaimed, “This dish smells so good. It must taste even better.”
“Boss Xiao, how far is your house?” Someone was tempted by the fragrance and couldn’t wait.
Xiao Lingyu said, “It’s not that far. It’s only 100 meters from here.”
Soon they arrived.
Although the night was a little dark, under the hazy moonlight, one could vaguely see a two-story-tall house. There were many flowers and plants growing in the courtyard.
To these visitors, this house was very ordinary. However, the white light with a hazy feeling could show the warmth and harmony of this family.
The moment they walked into the courtyard, they saw three round log tables placed in the courtyard. In front of each table were ten plastic stools. The stools could be stacked together to save space.
“Wow, there are so many flowers in this courtyard.”
In March and April, there were many kinds of flowers blooming.
Among them, the most eye-catching ones were the rose flowers that were climbing on the wall.
“These flowers are so fragrant.” Someone squatted down and closed his eyes to smell the jasmine flowers.
“And these rose flowers are in so many colors. They are so beautiful.”
The flowers in the yard were all ordinary flowers. The valuable flowers had been moved to the Gong Family yard.
Old Master Gong and his grandson did not live there anymore. However, Xiao Lingyu was married to Gong Tianhao, so she was the daughter-in-law of the Gong family. Therefore, she was the one who was taking care of the Gong family house. After all, the Gong family house contained many valuable items despite its ordinary appearance. For example, the tables and chairs in the house were real mahogany furniture. Each set was worth hundreds of thousands or even millions.
There were also all kinds of flowers and trees in the greenhouse.
Of course, Old Master Gong left someone to take care of the house. For example, Xiao Zhang and Xiao Zhao stayed behind. Even so, Xiao Lingyu was careful. She would go to the Gong Family house daily to take a look.
“Wow, it smells so good!” The visitors were charmed by the flower fragrance. Their eyes lit up as they exclaimed, “It smells so good!”
At that moment, Eldest Aunt Xiao and the others came up with noodles. Seeing the young strangers in the courtyard, they said generously, “The noodles are here. Young guests, you can wash your hands and then eat the noodles.”
Xiao Lingyu pointed to the well and said, “There’s a sink over there. You can wash your hands there.”
As soon as she said that, everyone squeezed over.
Someone saw the noodles on the table and gulped. “I’m going to eat first. I’ll wash my hands later!”
His companion beside him immediately said disdainfully, “Then, you’ll be despised by all of us!”
The person who spoke, “…”
These tourists had only eaten some bread and biscuits in the morning and noon. After a day of sightseeing, they were hungry.
When they saw the poached egg and tomato noodles on the table, they drooled. The visitors enjoyed the noodles with their eyes.
The two poached eggs were fried on both sides. They were golden yellow. The soup was made from tomatoes. It was red and fresh. Six soft and tender tomatoes were placed next to the poached eggs. Then, some chives were sprinkled on top.
It looked like an ordinary bowl of tomato and egg noodles, but it was very homely. More importantly, the fragrance that assaulted their nostrils made their appetite soar.
“This smell is heavenly!” They quickly washed their hands.
“Sob… it’s so delicious!” Someone couldn’t help but take a sip of the soup, but for some reason, he felt like crying. It was because he missed home.
“It’s really delicious!”
One by one, they started to eat.
“I’ve never eaten such delicious noodles.”
“I’ve never eaten such delicious poached eggs!”
“And I’ve never eaten such delicious tomatoes!”
“Why do I feel like crying when I eat these noodles?”
“I have the same feeling. It’s making me think of home and my parents!”
“Yeah, me too! Sob… how can these noodles be so delicious?”
…
Xiao Lingyu, Eldest Aunt Xiao, and the other members of the Xiao family, “…” Why are these young people crying over a bowl of noodles?
The Xiao Family was used to Mother Xiao’s cooking, so they naturally couldn’t understand the feelings of those travelers.
Mother Xiao always imbued her love in her cooking. Different people would react differently when they eat it.
Some people felt warmth, and some people felt happiness… For these visitors, it aroused their feelings of longing.
They were too selfish. To go on these trips, they left their elderly parents at home. Usually, these backpacking trips would take around one year or even more. Their parents must be worried sick about them. Perhaps they’d call home every day but if they forgot one day, their families would panic.
The backpackers thought of these things and they wept as they ate the noodles.
When Eldest Aunt Xiao saw this, she shook her head helplessly and said, “Eat slowly. There’s still some in the basin. You can eat as much as you want.”
Eldest Aunt Xiao placed a big basin of noodles on the stone table.
Some people had small appetites. No matter how delicious the food was, they would be full after eating one bowl of noodles.
Some people had bigger appetites. After eating one bowl of noodles, they felt that they were not full yet, so they naturally went to get another bowl.
Ye Feifei ate the noodles in the bowl and could not help but ask, “Boss Xiao, who made these noodles? It’s really delicious.”
Xiao Lingyu was also eating the noodles. She smiled and said, “My mom made this. If you think it’s delicious, then eat more.”
“Your mom?” Many people were surprised. They knew that Xiao Lingyu was very rich. She should be rich enough to hire a chef, so they didn’t expect the person who cooked the noodles was Boss Xiao’s mother.
Xiao Lingyu raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, “That’s right. My mother’s cooking skills are very good. She gets the praises from everyone who had eaten her food.”
Everyone nodded as if they understood.
After Xiao Lingyu ate a bowl of noodles, she returned to the house.
When she came out again, she was holding a white and chubby child in her arms.
“Wow, this child is so beautiful and cute!” When they saw the child, the eyes of the female visitors immediately sparkled with excitement.
“This child is white and chubby, so beautiful!” Someone stepped forward and wanted to pinch the child’s cheek.
When the child saw someone reaching out their claws at him, he immediately turned his head and pointed the back of his head at the person who wanted to attack him.
Ye Feifei raised her hand and said with a smile, “This child is so smart. Boss Xiao, how old is the child?”
Xiao Lingyu carried the baby and sat down in front of the table. There was also a bowl of noodles in front of her, but this was a small bowl for the child to eat.
Because Xiao Tong was still too young, his food had to be made separately.
“Six months!” Xiao Lingyu carried the child and adjusted her posture. She crushed the noodles. Then she said, “This child is a little resistant to strangers.”
“He’s only six months old and already knows how to recognize people. He’s too smart,” someone said immediately.
At six months, some of the children could listen but they wouldn’t understand the words. However, Xiao Tong was very good at expressing himself.
When the child saw the shredded noodles in front of him, his expression changed, but he quickly returned to normal.
He did not want to eat these shredded noodles at all.
In fact, with his physique, it would not be a problem for him to eat the normal adult food.
However, he was a six-month-old baby and he had to follow the rules.
Xiao Lingyu fed Xiao Tong a mouthful of shredded noodles and asked with a smile, “Tong Tong, is Grandma’s noodles delicious?”
Xiao Tong immediately understood and expressed that he liked it. “Ya… Ya…” He mumbled and waved with his hands.
Xiao Lingyu smiled, “Tong Tong loves Grandma’s noodles, so Tong Tong has to finish the bowl.”
Xiao Tong agreed again.
The visitors gasped, “Wow, the baby is really smart!”
