Xia Ruofei looked up and saw that it was Old West's wife, Cabelli. He was pleasantly surprised. "Auntie Cabelli! Why are you here? I was going to visit you guys at the winery after I've settled down! "
Liang Qichao got out of the car and smiled. "Uncle West is here too! He was cooking his signature dishes in there! The two of them said that they wanted to give you a surprise, so they purposely didn't pick you up at the entrance! "
"Xia! We missed you so much while you were away! "Madam Cabelli came up and gave Xia Ruofei a warm hug.
Old West was wearing an apron and carrying a plate of apple pie to the door. He laughed and said, "Boss! Welcome back to Australia! "
Xia Ruofei was also in a good mood. He smiled and said, "Uncle West, you guys have worked hard for the past few months!"
"Oh right, Sister Jing, let me introduce you!" Xia Ruofei said. "This is Uncle West, and this is his wife, Auntie Cabelli! They helped me take care of the two wineries in Australia! "
Considering the language barrier, out of respect for Old West and Cabelli, and Feng Jing's English was very good, Xia Ruofei introduced them in English.
He then said, "Uncle West, Auntie Cabelli, this is …"
Cabelli smiled and said, "Xia, this beautiful lady must be your girlfriend!"
Xia Ruofei and Feng Jing couldn't help but blush. Xia Ruofei quickly explained, "No, no, no! You misunderstood. She's the CEO of my domestic company, and she's my business partner! Of course, we're also very good friends! "
After Feng Jing heard that, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
However, after Old West heard that, he immediately said, "I know, I know! I heard from Liang that the two of you were coming together. I even learned a sentence of Chinese from Liang! "
"Oh?" Xia Ruofei was a little surprised. "You even learned a sentence of Chinese!"
"Of course. Although I'm old, my learning ability is still very strong!" Old West said proudly.
Then he walked in front of Feng Jing and said in a strange tone of Chinese, "Lady boss, reverse!"
Xia Ruofei and Feng Jing were stunned. Liang Qichao finally couldn't help but laugh.
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but glare at Liang Qichao. He said in Chinese, "Brother Liang, aren't you being too mean?"
Old West could not help but feel a little strange when he saw everyone's reaction. He hurriedly asked, "Xia, is there anything wrong with what I said?"
Xia Ruofei glanced at Liang Qichao and asked, "Auntie, Auntie, do you know what this sentence?"
"Of course!" Old West said. "Boss, nice!
to
meet
you！ (Hello, boss!) "
Old West wasn't very clear about Xia Ruofei's asset structure. He didn't know that Wonderland Farm and the two wineries were actually privately invested by Xia Ruofei. Strictly speaking, they weren't businesses of the Taoyuan Company.
So when he heard from Liang Qichao that Xia Ruofei, the chairman, and the company's president, Feng Jing, were coming to Australia together, he learned this sentence of Chinese from him.
On the other hand, Liang Qichao wanted to be funny and deliberately translated 'boss' as' lady boss', making Xia Ruofei and Feng Jing extremely awkward.
Xia Ruofei glared at Liang Qichao, then said to Old West, "Uncle, your pronunciation is still a little inaccurate. It should be 'Hello, boss!'"
"Understood! There's no ending syllable, right? " Old West had never learned Chinese. He thought that the word "mother" was like an English suffix.
The more he explained, the messier it would be. So Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "More or less!"
Old West said humbly, "Looks like Chinese is really difficult! Let me try again! "
Feng Jing quickly said in English, "Uncle West, it's okay, it's okay … I'm not your boss! Ruofei is! You can just call me by my name! "
"Alright!" Old West nodded and said, "Then I'll call you … Feng?"
"Mm! Your pronunciation is very accurate! "Feng Jing nodded and said.
"Feng, nice to meet you! Come, let's go! Dinner is ready! " Old West said enthusiastically. "Today's dinner was prepared by me and Carberry. This apple pie is my best dish. You must try it!"
"Okay, okay, okay! I'm starving. Let's go in! "Xia Ruofei said quickly.
As the group of people walked in, Xia Ruofei, who was at the back, could not help but pinch Liang Qichao. She said in a low voice, "Brother Liang, if you do something like this again, I'll ask Elder Tang to transfer you back to America! I'll ask him to transfer Liang Xiaojun to manage the farm! "
Liang Xiaojun was the one who was competing with Liang Qichao for the right to inherit the farm. Back then, when Tang He was looking for Gold-Rimmed Phoebe Zhennan, the two families were fighting openly and secretly. Now, Liang Xiaojun's performance in Tang He's company was average, while Liang Qichao's performance in the farm was outstanding. The scales of victory were tilted towards him.
Liang Qichao quickly smiled and said, "I'm just trying to adjust the atmosphere! I won't do it again! Besides … You're worried about letting Liang Xiaojun come over, aren't you? This is such a big business. It's better to have someone who knows the ins and outs of the business to manage it! "
Xia Ruofei snorted softly and said, "Then I'll ask Mr. Tang to send a professional manager over! By then, you and Daphra will be separated from each other … "
"Don't, don't, don't! Boss Xia! Brother Xia! Master Xia! I won't dare to do it again … "Liang Qichao quickly smiled and begged for mercy.
"I'll propose a toast to Manager Feng later!" Xia Ruofei said, "Girls are thin-skinned. You can't make such jokes!"
Liang Qichao mumbled, "Aren't I busy trying to matchmake you two?"
"What did you say?" Xia Ruofei raised his eyebrows and stared at Liang Qichao.
Liang Qichao quickly waved his hand and said, "Nothing! Nothing! I'm saying that I'll definitely propose a toast to Manager Feng! "
Xia Ruofei then stretched out his finger and pointed at Liang Qichao, then walked in front of him.
Actually, Xia Ruofei naturally heard it. But this kind of thing was meant to be a joke, so it was fine to stop there.
The group walked into the villa, and Liang Qichao said, "Boss Xia, Manager Feng, leave your luggage in the living room first! I'll arrange a room for you after dinner! Let's eat first. You must be starving! "
After saying that, Liang Qichao politely led everyone to the dining room on the first floor of the villa.
The dinner prepared by Mr. and Mrs. West was very sumptuous. There was a very special Queensland meat pie, grilled fish fillet in herb oil, deep-fried crab sticks, and of course, there were also desserts prepared by the couple, including Mr. and Mrs. West's apple pie.
Other than that, there was also a roast pig that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It was paired with Mrs. Carberry's personally made sweet sauce. Just looking at it made one's appetite whet.
Xia Ruofei and Feng Jing's stomachs were already rumbling with hunger, so after they sat down, they ate two big pieces of roast pig. Xia Ruofei was full of praise for this delicacy, especially the crispy skin that was cooked just right. Xia Ruofei ate with relish.
Xia Ruofei gave a thumbs up and said, "It's very delicious!"
Mrs. Carberry was very happy and said, "Eat more if you like it!"
Mrs. Carberry was happy from the bottom of her heart that her personally made food was appreciated. She kept urging the two to eat more. Xia Ruofei couldn't help but think of the scene when he ate at his mother's house in Huzi. On this point, the feelings of the elders had no boundaries.
After filling their stomachs, Xia Ruofei and Feng Jing finally had time to taste the wine that Mr. West brought.
This was the semillon produced by West's winery. It was also quite old, and the wine was very rich. Although it couldn't be compared to the semillon that Xia Ruofei stored in the space, the quality was definitely excellent.
In fact, this was the semillon that Mr. West treasured. Usually, he couldn't bear to take it out to drink.
Mr. West smiled and said, "Xia, we saw the news. The Australian TV station immediately reported that the flight you were on deviated. At that time, Carberry and I were very worried! Fortunately, you were safe in the end! "
Carberry also gave Xia Ruofei a thumbs up and said, "Son, you're amazing! Now many people in Australia know you. Everyone is saying that you're a great hero! "
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "I was forced to do that. If I didn't bite the bullet and stand up, I would have lost my life! Fortunately, I was lucky! "
He had been bombarded by the news of the flight's forced landing for the past few days, so he didn't want to talk about it anymore. He directly changed the topic and said, "By the way, I stayed in Saipan for two days. Will the winery be delayed?"
Mr. West said, "We've been organizing the grape harvest for the past two days. The rainfall in Australia is quite abundant this season. If the grapes are not harvested in time, they'll rot easily."
Xia Ruofei nodded and said, "It's good that the progress is normal. I was worried that I wouldn't arrive in time and delay things here!"
Mr. West laughed heartily and said, "Don't worry! I'll control the progress. I won't rigidly wait for you to arrive in Australia before starting the harvest! "
"By the way, we'll start brewing wine tomorrow!" Mr. West continued, "Boss, you're just in time! It'll be a pity if you miss this meaningful customer! "
"Then I'll go directly to the winery tomorrow!" Xia Ruofei said. "Didn't you travel thousands of miles just for this?"
After dinner, Mr. and Mrs. West happily accepted the small gifts that Xia Ruofei had brought from China — Peach Garden Dahongpao and Jade Skin Ointment. Then, they said goodbye and went back.
They also knew that Xia Ruofei had been tired from the journey, so they should let him rest early.
Liang Qichao had always kept the master bedroom in the villa. This time, he let Feng Jing live in it. Xia Ruofei chose another guest room on the second floor.
After chatting for a while, everyone went back to their rooms to take a shower and rest. Xia Ruofei didn't even let Liang Qichao report the situation at Paradise Farm in detail. Everything would wait until the next day.
The next morning, Xia Ruofei started his cultivation on time. After finishing his cultivation, he took a shower. Then, he put on his linen home clothes and shuffled downstairs in his slippers.
As soon as he arrived downstairs, Xia Ruofei saw Feng Jing standing by the lake through the window. She opened her arms and took deep breaths.
He smiled and walked out of the villa. "Sister Jing, you're up so early!"
Feng Jing turned around and smiled sweetly. "I set an alarm! The farm is too quiet. If you don't have a mobile phone alarm, it's easy to oversleep! "
"So what if I oversleep? I'm here to relax. I'll do whatever is comfortable! "Xia Ruofei said.
"If I sleep in, won't I miss this beautiful morning?" Feng Jing said with a smile. "The scenery here is so beautiful! I really don't want to leave after staying here for a while! "
The two of them cast their gazes forward. The surface of the lake was still shrouded in a layer of gauze, making it look like a paradise on earth. Taking a deep breath, they could feel the faint fragrance of grass in the air, making them feel relaxed and happy.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Then stay for a while! Or just accept my suggestion and take a month off! Don't worry about the company! "
"That won't do!" Feng Jing said. "I don't want to lose my ambition so early! By the way, how long will you be in Australia this time? I still have to go back to work! "
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but touch his forehead and smile bitterly. "Here we go again … I don't know how long I'll be staying! We have to wait for this batch of wine to finish brewing! Anyway, don't worry about it! If you're still worried about the company, call everyone for a remote meeting or something! "
"Okay!" Feng Jing nodded and said, "Oh yeah, I'll go with you today! I haven't seen how wine is brewed yet! "
"Sure! Anyway, you don't have a mission this time. If you want to go, hurry up and have breakfast! "Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
"Okay!" Feng Jing said happily.
The breakfast was prepared by Liang Qichao himself, and it was quite sumptuous.
After everyone finished eating, Xia Ruofei asked Liang Qichao for the car keys. He then drove Feng Jing out of Wonderland Farm and went straight to West Winery.
As for Liang Qichao, he wasn't interested in brewing wine. He was focused on the farm, so Xia Ruofei didn't let him join in the fun.
After getting out of the car in front of West Winery, Feng Jing looked at the old door and the nameplate of the winery and asked, "Ruofei, this is your winery! It looks quite old, doesn't it? "
"This is one of the wineries. It's barely a hundred years old!" Xia Ruofei said. "Didn't we pass by a vineyard just now? That's the winery's property! "
"It's so big!" Feng Jing said in surprise. "This winery doesn't look that big! I thought it was one of those small-scale wineries! "
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "Australia has a lot of land, right? West Winery isn't that big in the Hunter Valley. Okay, let's go in! "
That day, Old West and Carberry were both wearing shirts and suspenders. They were giving instructions to the workers. When Old West saw the two of them enter, he immediately put down his work and came up to them.
"Xia! Feng! Come in! "Old West said with a smile." I was just about to call the farm! They're about to start brewing wine! "
"You came at the right time!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
"Xia, I'll get you something to eat!" Carberry came over and said.
"Don't worry, Aunt Carberry!" Xia Ruofei quickly said. "We just finished breakfast at the farm and came over! You guys do your thing. We're just here to watch the fun! "
After that, Xia Ruofei pointed at the workers and asked, "What are they busy with?"
