Chapter 683: Winter Peach Blossoms

Winter was supposed to be a season of barrenness.
Most the animals and plants are in hibernation. There are no green branches or leaves on the treetops. For some tourist spots, winter was the down season. Rather than going out to look at the emptiness, it was more interesting to stay at home and watch TV.
However, there was one place that was extremely popular and full of tourists.
That was the Taoyuan Village!
Taoyuan Village was not spared from the passing of the four seasons. The biggest reason why Taoyuan village was famous was that it had a large number of peach trees. When the flowers bloomed in spring, the mountains and plains were filled with peach blossoms. It was such a beautiful scene.
The main flowering season of the peach trees was in March or April in spring. When spring came, the flowers bloomed. It would shade the whole village in its pink color.
But the trees at Taoyuan Village were also special. There were peach blossoms in winter. Yes, Taoyuan Village had cultivated a batch of peach blossom trees that could bloom in winter. These trees wouldn’t bear fruits. They were only for admiration.
In order to add some beautiful scenery to the village in winter, Xiao Lingyu hired many horticulture and agronomist experts to let them research peach blossoms that could bloom in winter.
In fact, as long as she wanted, Xiao Lingyu could make all the peach trees bloom in winter. But if she did that, it would definitely be too eye-catching.
Therefore, Xiao Lingyu hired the horticulture and agronomist experts. They were all well-known experts and professors in the industry. Xiao Lingyu provided them with Little Light’s manure which was mixed with the spring water for their research. As expected, these experts and professors quickly cultivated peach blossom trees that bloomed in winter. This variety didn’t need to be in a greenhouse. They could be planted in the open air.
Once this variety was developed, Xiao Lingyu planted it in large quantities.
Xiao Lingyu didn’t publicize it much, but it was reported by some media. Then, the news spread. Thus, Taoyuan Village got on trending again.
Other than the peach blossoms, Taoyuan Village had a large greenhouse to house tropical plants. It was a great botanical garden.
Taoyuan Village was filled even in the winter. The inns, thatched huts, and lodgings were filled every day. The reservations for the huts were very long. Many people lined up daily. Many people came to Taoyuan Village because they could eat the things directly produced by the Green Fresh Farm.
The stock at the supermarkets was sold out daily. They couldn’t buy them even if they queued up early.
Many customers were filled with resentment. For this reason, many of them decided to come to Taoyuan Village directly. They heard that the village had a large canteen. Many good chefs were hired to provide good food. The food was delicious but not expensive. Honestly, many people came for the food alone.
All in all, Taoyuan Village had many famous features, and every tourist traveled there for their own reason.
…
When Situ Xing and Gong Tianhao arrived at Taoyuan Village, they were dumbfounded. Actually, when they arrived at Xing Yin County, they could feel the difference already.
In the past, Xingyin County was a relatively poor, backward, and stable small county. But now, high-rise buildings had been built and shops were everywhere. It was much more luxurious and lively than before.
The changes over the past three years were too much!
Situ Xing asked excitedly, “Boss, do you still have any impression of this place?”
Gong Tianhao raised his eyebrows lazily and said, “How could I not? Didn’t Tao Zi work here in the past?”
“Hmm? In that case, do you remember the days you, Tao Zi, and Xiao Lingyu were working together?” Situ Xing probed.
Gong Tianhao frowned and said unhappily, “I don’t remember!” He couldn’t remember anything related to Xiao Lingyu, even though everyone around him told him that Xiao Lingyu was his wife and that they had a son.
Situ Xing immediately revealed a disappointed look.
He thought that coming back here would trigger some memories in his Boss. But it seemed that Gong Tianhao had selectively forgotten everything about Xiao Lingyu.
Situ Xing scratched his head in annoyance. He could not help but ask, “How could you not? You’ve lived here for a long time.”
Gong Tianhao stared at him coldly with his sharp eyes. His voice was even colder as he said, “I told you I couldn’t remember. Why repeat the question?”
Situ Xing shut his mouth. Then, his hand made a zipper gesture.
Gong Tianhao, “…”
Then, from Xing Yin County to Xing An Town, all the way to Taoyuan Village, Situ Xing kept his mouth shut tightly.
When he was about to reach Taoyuan Village, he couldn’t help but open his mouth again.
Seeing a large number of people and vehicles on the road, Situ Xing exclaimed, “Wow, there are so many people! Taoyuan village has changed so much!”
In the past, this was just an ordinary village. The villagers were poor farmers. Also, no matter how beautiful the village was in the past, it had not been renovated. It looked a little messy, but now it was modern and clean.
Gong Tianhao glanced at him and asked indifferently, “Wasn’t Taoyuan Village like this in the past?”
“Of course not!” Situ Xing immediately jumped up and said, “Although Taoyuan Village used to be beautiful, it was still an ordinary village. Moreover, it was the poorest village in the city.
“Do you see this road? The peach trees that symbolize the village line it on both sides. However, this road used to be narrow and muddy in the past.
“I remember Li Yuanhang saying that when you two first came here, it took almost two hours to traverse this path. Therefore, when the old master decided to move here, you funded the construction of this wide and big road.
“Because of this road, the villagers of the Taoyuan Village are very grateful to you, and you and the old man have become the great benefactors of the village.
“Also, I remember Li Yuanhang said that when you drove here, you didn’t bring any food and were hungry. You even got off the car midway and stepped on cow dung in the fields… When I heard that, I almost laughed to death!” Situ Xing laughed loudly.
Gong Tianhao frowned tightly. He couldn’t remember it at all.
“Boss, do you really have no impression at all?”
Boss Gong looked at Situ Xing with a serious expression and then shook his head.
Situ Xing, “…”
Situ Xing was a little discouraged.
As he drove, his eyes glanced outside. Suddenly, he said in puzzlement, “Huh? It’s winter now, right?
“Many people will either stay at home or travel abroad in the winter, right?
“Taoyuan Village is beautiful, but there’s not much to see in the winter. It’ll look bleak. But look at the crowd. What’s going on?”
Although they had seen the changes to the village, they didn’t expect the large flow of people during winter. This was highly unusual.
Out of curiosity, Situ Xing pulled over and asked a tourist about it.
“Hey, Beauties, why did you think of coming here for a vacation?” Situ Xing stopped four ladies who were traveling together.
Situ Xing was handsome and drove a luxury car. The ladies who were asked stopped. Among the four of them, two of them stared at Situ Xing with shining eyes, and two of them looked inside the car. When they couldn’t see through the tinted window, they pouted.
A woman with long straight black hair deliberately brushed her hair in front of Situ Xing and said with a smile, “Handsome, then why did you travel here? Do you have a partner?”
Situ Xing’s eyes flashed, and he said with a smile, “My girlfriend asked me to come here. But it’s my first time here, and I don’t know why she’d ask me to come here.”
When the woman heard that Situ Xing had a girlfriend, her expression changed. She revealed an expression that said she’d take this challenge. She secretly winked at Situ Xing and even gently touched the back of his hand with her fingertips, her voice was flirtatious and a little coquettish, “This is interesting. Did your girlfriend invite you here? Don’t you know that the peach blossoms also bloom here in winter?”
Situ Xing raised his eyebrows. “Peach blossoms? Will they bloom in winter?”
“Hehe, handsome, don’t you know? This village has a peach forest that blooms in winter.”
A girl at the side covered her mouth and laughed, “Handsome, don’t you know how to search on the internet first? The winter peach blossoms here have become quite famous!”
Situ Xing’s eyes flashed. Then, he ignored the obvious attempts at flirting. He smiled and said, “Thank you, ladies!”
Then, the car started and left.
The Four Beauties, “…”
“He left just like that? Can’t he at least take us with him?” The woman who flirted with Situ Xing looked at the leaving car in disbelief.
They were just a little tired from walking, so when they saw a handsome man with a car, they decided to stop. They wanted to take a ride in the car.
In the end, the man asked for directions and ran away.
“Forget it. We’re almost there. Once we’re there, we can rest!” Another friend comforted her.
“How can I just forget it?” The woman felt a little hurt. This was the first time she had met a man who didn’t fall for her charm.
Situ Xing smiled curiously as he drove, “Peach blossoms in winter. This is interesting. No wonder so many people came!”
Peach blossoms in winter were only available in the capital botanical garden. They were planted in large greenhouses. The entrance tickets were very expensive.
“I didn’t expect Taoyuan Village to have winter peach blossom. And from what those people said, there are a lot of them,” Situ Xing continued, “Sister-in-law is really capable. She thought of using peach blossoms in winter to attract tourists!”
Gong Tianhao pursed his lips tightly and didn’t say anything!
A moment later, they arrived at the entrance of Taoyuan Village and saw a few long lines.
Situ Xing asked curiously, “What are they lining up for?”
Gong Tianhao said, “You should have your eyes checked. It’s clearly written there that this is the ticket office. We need to buy tickets here.”
“Huh?” Situ Xing was surprised. “Should we go and line up too?” The question was a test.
Gong Tianhao glanced at him and said, “It’s rude to jump the line.”
Situ Xing sighed and said, “Okay, I’ll go and line up now.” He had just put down his seatbelt. “No, boss. Can’t you call Xiao Lingyu to take us in? How long would we need to wait in these long lines otherwise?”
Gong Tianhao, “…”
