Only this green, not disappointing the spring

It is true that there is strength in numbers. After the efforts of many parties, the inn built for the tourism industry of the three villages was basically completed that day.

Different from the traditional inn, it is closer to the homestay style of Zhou Xiaoxi's previous life. In order to fully guarantee the privacy of the guests, the rooms are independent, scattered and separated by bamboo fences.

Zhou Xiaoxi plans to plant a circle of climbing flowering plants around the fence in the future to make the environment of each courtyard more beautiful and more private.

The paths between the rooms are all paved with pebbles, which are local materials so the only cost is labor. There are springs flowing in several villages around, and the creeks are rich in mud, sand and stones.

The courtyard is full of Oxalis, and Zhou Xiaoxi has put a lot of thought into this aspect. For example, Oxalis of different colors is planted in specific locations, and if it grows well in the future, it will present a beautiful pattern.

The furnishings in the room are even more unique.

Zhou Xiaoxi and Li successfully made the Bohemian-style half-covered door curtains that she had bought in her previous life, hung wind chimes in front of the window, and placed crocheted simulated bouquets on the table. In addition, Zhou Xiaoxi also inserted cotton or large bunches of dry reeds in the bamboo vase.

A soft and comfortable crocheted carpet was placed next to the couch, and the bedding on the beds was covered with four-piece sets of uniform style, all sewn with the Shangpin Pavilion logo designed by Zhou Xiaoxi.

Focus on an invisible brand promotion.

The large piece of wasteland surrounding the inn is now full of Brassica rapa. In a few days, it will be covered with small yellow flowers, and the entire area will be golden yellow.

The dining hall is located in the middle of the courtyards. Zhou Xiaoxi designed it into hidden and independent single seats, warm and comfortable double seats and four-person seats.

The entire hall space is fully utilized, and there are no private rooms. If you need, you can order food in advance and someone will deliver it to the courtyard.

Zhou Xiaoxi took everyone around like a little tour guide, explaining the ingenuity of the design.

Zhang Jiaojiao was overwhelmed by the sight.

"Sister Xiaoxi, you are so amazing! In the future, the overall layout of our health center must be better than this inn! Oh, I have to get started when I get back, and I must not be lazy!"

"Oh, there really is no harm without comparison. You are feeling uncomfortable because our inn is so well built!"

Fu Qiuyang couldn't help but bickering on the side.

Whenever these two funny guys meet, there’s a smooch between them!

Fortunately, Xiaonan didn’t come today, otherwise if there was another couple making trouble, Zhou Xiaoxi would have collapsed.

Shangguan Lan was unusually quiet today. The design of the inn was very impressive, but he had something on his mind and couldn't calm down.

"Second brother, you seem to be worried. Did something happen?" Zhou Xiaoxi noticed Shangguan Lan's abnormality very early on. It was not very obvious at first, but now it can no longer be concealed at all.

Shangguan Lan's first thought was to conceal it, but she felt that her sister was not an ignorant girl, on the contrary, she was very capable. It seemed that there was no need to conceal it.

Thinking of this, he pulled Zhou Xiaoxi aside and said:

"Sister, this morning I received a letter from my mother sent by Brother Zi'an. They encountered assassins on the road. For safety reasons, they may not be able to come for a while."

Zhou Xiaoxi's heart tightened when she heard this. She couldn't help but grab Shangguan Lan's sleeve and asked nervously:

"How is mother? Is she not injured?"

Speaking of this, Shangguan Lan had to mention the adopted sister. He originally planned to keep it secret and then mention it after he got closer to his younger sister.

But now that things have come to this, I can only confess.

"Mom is fine. Yunxin's arm was scratched and poisoned. She is recovering locally..."

"Well, little sister, there is something I haven't told you yet, mainly because I'm afraid you will misunderstand. Yunxin is a baby that our parents found when they were looking for you, and we have been raising her as an adopted daughter at home. The reason why mother agreed to raise her by her side was that she wanted to accumulate more virtues, and I hope you can be treated well too."

Zhou Xiaoxi took a while to figure out what Shangguan Lan meant. After her family lost her, she happened to pick up another child on the road and kept raising him. Now the girl was injured and poisoned in order to save her mother...

Tsk, this is really ridiculous! How can there be such a coincidence in this world? Is it a popular way to throw children for fun? !

Seeing Shangguan Lan staring at him nervously and wanting to say something but stopping himself several times, Zhou Xiaoxi sighed lightly.

"Brother, what are you afraid of? My parents didn't lose me on purpose. Besides, they have been searching for me for twelve years. I have no right to blame you. Even if they adopted that girl just to ease the pain of losing their daughter, I can understand."

I understand, but it still makes me uncomfortable.

Is there really no selfish motive at all? Zhou Xiaoxi didn't believe it.

Alas! Shangguan Lan couldn't help but sigh in his heart. In fact, his father had admitted that one of the reasons for adopting Yun Xin was that he was worried that his mother would be too sad and hurt her body.

"Little sister, you must believe that our family has never treated Yunxin as a substitute for you over the years. She was adopted, and her real sister has not been found yet. This is what my parents have told me since I was a child. The same goes for Yunxin. Ever since she was old enough to understand, she has known her true identity. You..."

"Okay, second brother, now is not the time to talk about this. Mother's safety is the most important. What can we do for her?"

Zhou Xiaoxi was not angry or anything, she just felt a little uncomfortable, maybe more jealous. She didn't want to delve into it.

Shangguan Lan was a little frustrated, but what his younger sister said was indeed correct, so he spoke:

"I plan to write a letter and ask my mother to go to my grandparents' house first, and then come here after finding the murderer and eliminating the danger. What do you think, little sister?"

There is definitely nothing wrong with this approach, except that it is a bit disappointing.

"Xiaoxi, what are you talking about?"

Zhang Jiaojiao, who was bickering heatedly with Fu Qiuyang, turned around and found that Zhou Xiaoxi was no longer beside her.

"Nothing, just a quick chat. Can't you and Brother Fu get along peacefully? You're always like two firecrackers, ready to explode at any moment."

"Humph, it's all his fault. He always goes against me. It's so annoying!"

Fu Qiuyang was not to be outdone and immediately responded:

"Don't give me that. You are so mean and yet you blame others for criticizing you."

"Stop!" Zhou Xiaoxi subconsciously made a pause gesture, but found that the two of them didn't understand it at all, so he put his hand down awkwardly.

She said helplessly:

"You two, we're here to discuss business. We've looked around the inn, so please give us your suggestions."

"It's full of wild fun. Anyway, I'm 100% satisfied. How about a trial run before the official opening? Invite friends and family over first, let them experience it and give us suggestions, and we can also find loopholes. In addition, if they think it's good, they will naturally help us promote it."

Good idea! Zhou Xiaoxi knew that Zhang Jiaojiao was extremely talented in business!
