Chapter 666: Landlord and Landlady
“Great-grandfather, my mommy is now a landlady. “Xiao Letong pointed at a large green vegetable patch and covered his mouth as he laughed.
Old Master Gong asked with a smile, “Oh, Tong Tong actually knows what a landlady is?”
Xiao Letong nodded his head and said, “Of course I do. It’s on television every day. However, my mother often says that she’s not a landlady. She’s just lucky.”
“Haha…”Old Master Gong was amused by his grandson.
“Great-grandfather, why are you laughing?” Xiao Letong asked in confusion, “Did I say something wrong?”
Old Master Gong patted Xiao Letong’s little head and said with a smile, “Tong Tong didn’t say anything wrong. Everything you say is right. Your mommy is a landlady and also a little rich. Then, it means that our Tong Tong is a little landlord too!”
Xiao Letong nodded happily and said, “Yes, I’m Mommy’s son after all!”
Old Master Gong, “…” His little great-grandson was really smart.
Xiao Letong held Old Master Gong’s hand and said, “Great-grandfather, let’s go a little further inside. It’s really pretty there!”
Old Master Gong immediately asked with great interest, “Oh, how pretty is it?”
Xiao Letong tilted his little head and thought for a moment before saying, “I don’t know how to explain, but my mommy says it’s very artful.”
“If that’s what your mother said, then I really want to go and take a look!” Old Master Gong said.
“Then great-grandfather, let’s go!” Xiao Letong happily held his great-grandfather’s hand as they walked on the ridge.
Not long after, Xiao Letong brought them to another vegetable patch.
Xiao Letong said, “Great-grandfather, this is the place. Look, isn’t this place very beautiful?”
Even the experienced Old Master Gong was severely shocked by this vegetable patch. “Yes, it’s really beautiful!”
The purple eggplants and red tomatoes were planted in the shape of a Taiji eight trigrams. Of course, there were other natural installations like the four divine beasts, twelve zodiac signs, and so on.
Old Master Gong couldn’t help but exclaim in joy, “This is really an artform! How did they even think about doing something like this?”
Many people around were taking pictures.
When they wanted to go down the field to take pictures with these vegetables, they would be stopped by the staff.
After all, the vegetables were still part of the harvest. If the tourists got too close, they might accidentally damage the crops.
Xiao Wang and Xiao Zhang, who were beside grandfather Gong, were also very surprised by the living art.
Xiao Letong added, “Great-grandfather, there is also a sea of flowers. There are many insect sculptures there. Let’s go take a look.”
Old Master Gong smiled and nodded. “Alright!”
In the past, Taoyuan Village was beautiful, but the scenery was rather monotonous. But his granddaughter-in-law had made the place very lively.
Old Master Gong was quite aged already. There were a lot of people and the farming ridge was muddy and slippery. If one was not careful, they might slip and fall.
Thankfully, Xiao Lingyu had considered this issue as well. She had widened the ridge into a small road that could allow two people to walk side by side. Plus, there was nothing that was planted along the ridge. This was to prevent people from getting injured just in case they fell.
As for why she didn’t widen the road bigger… it was because no matter how wide the road was, it wouldn’t stop the narrowness of people’s hearts.
There were many tourists who came here to watch and take photos.
When they saw Old Master Gong and Xiao Letong, they naturally gave way to them. Of course, the discerning tourists also noticed the two tall and imposing bodyguards following behind them and knew that they were not simple characters. The tourists knew who not to offend.
However, Xiao Letong, who had the combination of Gong Tianhao and Xiao Lingyu’s good looks, was too cute and beautiful. Many tourists wanted to take photos with him.
Then, Xiao Letong immediately said with a smile, “Brothers and sisters, I know I’m very cute. Of course, I’ll be happy if you take photos of me. However, can I ask you not to expose me on the internet? My Mommy said that a beautiful, cute, and smart child like me is the easiest to be targeted by bad people.”
“Haha, you’re so cute!” Many people said with a smile, “Okay, we won’t post it!” With the internet, many things couldn’t be kept a secret anymore. What the child said did make sense.
“Ah, this child is so cute and smart!” Someone said in surprise. “He doesn’t look that old. How can he speak so fluently?”
“Little friend, can you tell sister how old you are now?”
Xiao Letong raised his head and replied very seriously, “Little sister, I’m two and a half years old now.”
“Ha, two and a half years old?Are you sure you’re not three or four years old?” This little sister asked in slight surprise.
Xiao Letong’s small face immediately turned serious as he said this, “Little sister, I’m only two and a half years old. My grandmother said that I eat well, so naturally, I’m taller than other children of the same age!” But the real reason was that he had been cultivating.
“I do not doubt your age. It’s just that you’re so good with your words, and you don’t look like a two-year-old child at all.”
“That’s also because I’ve been smart since I was young. I can learn anything quickly,” Xiao Letong said without any modesty. The current Xiao Letong didn’t know what modesty was at all.
“Is that so?” The Little Miss and the people around her were obviously a little suspicious.
Old Master Gong saw the disbelief in their eyes and was immediately unhappy.
His precious grandson was telling the truth, so how could anyone doubt him?
Old Master Gong also started to show off. “My great-grandson is indeed extremely intelligent. Despite his young age, he can already read and write.”
At this moment, Xiao Letong interjected, “Great-grandfather, not only that, I can already memorize the entire dictionary before I was one and a half years old!”
“Huh?” Most people obviously did not believe it. That was too hard to believe. How many words were there in a dictionary to memorize? That was something most adults couldn’t do, much less a one-year-old child.
At this moment, someone suddenly flipped through his phone and exclaimed, “Oh, I remember now. A friend of mine came here before and said that there was a child prodigy in the village. That child prodigy can indeed memorize the entire dictionary.”
“No way? Is this true?”
“It’s true!” That person said, “At first, my friend didn’t believe it either. Later, in order to verify whether it was true or not, my friend went to the bookstore to buy a dictionary. In front of many people, he tested that child prodigy. In the end, the child prodigy got everything correct.”
“Okay, now I have the impulse to rush to the bookstore to buy a dictionary.”
Xiao Letong said proudly with his head held high and chest puffed out, “Then go and buy it. I definitely won’t let you down. Oh, you don’t have to go to the bookstore outside. You can directly go to the youth guide information desk. You can either rent or buy a dictionary there.”
Of course, it was impossible to borrow one for free. Once the visitors were inside the Taoyuan Village, it was like Disneyland, and you had to pay for everything.
There was a long-standing legend of a child prodigy in Taoyuan village.
Many people didn’t believe it. In order to prove it, many people went to the bookstore to buy dictionaries.
Dictionaries were thick and expensive. After the visitors bought them, they left them in the village. Gradually, the dictionaries started to pile up.
Xiao Letong had an idea. He wanted to use these dictionaries to earn some pocket money for himself. He gathered all the dictionaries at the youth guide center.
Although his family was very rich, they were not his money. He was still young, so his family only gave him a few RMB for pocket money.
But once he could earn his own money, he could buy anything he wanted.
Once the visitors heard that there were dictionaries for rent at the youth guide center, someone rushed over to rent one.
