Only this green, not disappointing the spring

Zhou Xiaoxi and the other two soon left the restaurant. They just gave Manager Li a smile before leaving and there was no further communication.

Fu Qiuyang was still busy dealing with social interactions and didn't even have the chance to glance away.

The three of them were not in a hurry to return to the village. They had to go to Doctor Zhang's house to wish him a happy new year in advance and give a birthday gift to Zhang Jiaojiao.

Zhang Jiaojiao had originally planned to attend the auction today, but she accidentally kicked off the quilt last night and caught a cold.

Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, so Zhang's mother decisively issued a house arrest order, asking her to stay in her room and recuperate.

They first went to pay a visit to Doctor Zhang, as well as Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang.

The New Year gift that Zhou Xiaoxi prepared for Dr. Zhang was a cotton waistcoat that she crocheted herself. It was simple in style, but comfortable and warm.

Doctor Zhang originally wanted to refuse, but when he opened the package, he couldn't let it go.

Zhou Xiaonan is not as clever as her sister, so she can only crochet simple scarves, of the most common style. But she uses enough material, and the scarf is six feet long.

Doctor Zhang had never seen such a thing before, and said with a smile that Zhou Xiaonan was giving him a piece of cloth. Zhou Xiaonan smiled and walked forward and put the scarf around his neck, not forgetting to tease:

"Your neck is so much thicker than mine. I can wrap it around three times, but it's a bit difficult for you to wrap it around two times."

Everyone laughed. Doctor Zhang slapped Zhou Xiaonan on the forehead with a skillful and natural movement, obviously he was used to it.

As for Uncle Zhang and Aunt Zhang, it was the first time they met.

Zhou Xiaoxi attached great importance to it and personally made a bunch of Phalaenopsis orchids for Aunt Zhang.

The bouquet of flowers had been held by Li Dali behind the two sisters, and Mrs. Zhang had glanced at it several times.

She had heard from her daughter that Xiaonan's sister was clever and intelligent. She had expected this, but still underestimated her talent.

The flower was a variety she had never seen before, beautiful and elegant, and lifelike. It was especially suitable for displaying in the living room during the New Year for people to enjoy.

When Zhou Xiaoxi handed her the bouquet, she couldn't say no.

As they came to visit directly and there was no time for preparation, Mrs. Zhang simply pulled out a gold hairpin from her hair and inserted it into Zhou Xiaoxi's head.

She held Zhou Xiaoxi's hand affectionately, looked at her carefully, and couldn't help but praise her:

"You are really full of spirit. I wish I could keep you by my side and raise you as my own daughter. If Jiaojiao is half as smart and well-behaved as you, I will be satisfied!"

Zhou Xiaoxi shook his head.

"Aunt, please don't say that. Our family can be in such a good situation today, all thanks to the help from sister Jiaojiao. She is the wise one!"

Mrs. Zhang was a little confused when she heard Zhou Xiaoxi's high evaluation of her daughter. Could it be that the girl she had raised for twelve years had always been hiding her incompetence?

Zhang Jingkang saw his wife like this and knew that she had started to have wild thoughts again. He could only helplessly take over the conversation:

"Miss Xiaoxi, you are too kind. Jiaojiao is just a little kid, not as powerful as you say. Everyone has a gift, have you prepared one for me?"

Zhou Xiaoxi's eyes were a little sore. She saw in Uncle Zhang what she imagined a father should be like.

In her previous life, her father died of illness when she was very young, and she grew up with her mother. Once she traveled to another world, she still could not experience the true love of her father.

Suppressing the tears in her eyes, Zhou Xiaoxi took the last thing from Li Dali's hand and handed it to Zhang Jingkang.

"Uncle, I heard that you need to work at your desk for a long time, and your waist may get uncomfortable. I made this called a cushion, which is placed behind your waist. This way, your waist will be supported when you sit on the chair, and it can help relieve the discomfort in your waist."

Zhang Jingkang then placed the pillow behind him and felt unprecedented relaxation.

"Xiaoxi, you are so thoughtful! I like this gift very much! I heard from Xiaonan that you have been learning to read with her. This is not a long-term solution after all. Do you want to consider moving to our house and studying with Jiaojiao? She is bored studying alone, and she will definitely be very happy with you by her side!"

Mrs. Zhang immediately agreed:

"That's a good idea. I can't wait for you to move in!"

Doctor Zhang shattered the couple's fantasy:

"You think too much. This girl is so busy all day long, running several businesses. How can she live in our house? If she wanted to come, she would have come a long time ago. I asked her to study medicine with me, but she was not willing to do it. Humph!"

Zhou Xiaoxi scratched his head embarrassedly:

"Doctor Zhang, I'm really not interested in studying medicine! I'm a person whose hands shake when I grab a needle, so I'm not cut out for studying medicine. Please don't hold it against me."

At this point she suddenly thought of something, so she continued:

"But I do want to cooperate with you, but I don't know if Huichuntang would like me!"

When they heard that there was something serious to discuss, the couple decided not to stay any longer and found an excuse to leave together.

Today Li Dali was a very qualified servant. He sat in the corner drinking tea and eating snacks without saying a word.

Doctor Zhang motioned Zhou Xiaoxi to continue.

"Are you interested in opening a health clinic? It is said that a great doctor treats illness before it occurs. If you can vigorously promote the way of health preservation and help people fundamentally improve their physical condition, there will probably be fewer patients coming to the clinic, right?"

Doctor Zhang joked:

"Then won't the people in Huichun Hall have nothing to eat?"

Zhou Xiaonan immediately interrupted:

"Doctor Zhang, why are you still saying one thing and thinking another! A few days ago, you were still sighing in the clinic: I hope that all people in the world will be free from pain and disaster, and you would be willing to break the inheritance!"

After saying that, he rolled his eyes a little.

Doctor Zhang was not annoyed and continued to say with a smile:

"Xiao Nan, don't interrupt. Xiao Xi, please continue. What does a health club do?"

"For example, we can teach people to practice Wu Qin Xi and Ba Duan Jin, and as for the wealthy families, we can provide door-to-door one-on-one service. Another example is to give free lectures to the public on a fixed day every month, and the content is all related to health. Well, and then we can sell some health products..."

Before he finished speaking, a clear and loud female voice came from outside the living room:

“What are health products?”

Zhou Xiaoxi immediately turned around and saw a small face peeking out from behind the cotton door curtain. It seemed that it had been eavesdropping for a long time.

Zhou Xiaonan immediately ran over and dragged the man into the house, his tone full of concern:

"Sister Jiaojiao, why did you come out? Didn't you catch a cold?"

Zhang Jiaojiao pinched Zhou Xiaonan's cheek and said with a smile:

"Xiao Nannan, you are the one who cares about me the most! Don't worry, it's my mother who is making a fuss. I'm fine. I just sneezed when I got up this morning, so I was grounded. Hey, you have to tell me about the auction later, I'm very curious!"

Then he looked at Zhou Xiaoxi again.

"Good sister, please continue. It sounds very interesting to me! If grandfather doesn't agree, then we can form a partnership and make the business flourish!"

Zhou Xiaoxi's eyes lit up, she had long wanted to work with this girl!
