Bai Xi asked somewhat uncertainly, "Wouldn't this be inappropriate? After all, her son is an official."

“What if we accidentally offend them and they cause us trouble later? We won’t be able to find a place to seek justice then, because ordinary people can’t afford to offend officials.”

Yang Zhi smiled and said, "Don't worry about Yang Shuo. He doesn't even look at us. He only respects the rich and ignores the poor."

"So, as long as you have money, he will never cause you any trouble. If you have any problems, just go to him if you have enough money. He will definitely help you because of the gift you gave him."

Bai Xi nodded thoughtfully, indicating that she understood.

Then he asked Yang Zhi, "When are we going back to the city?"

"In a few days, we need to go back to the city to prepare for opening the shop. Once the factory starts operating and everyone who went home for the New Year returns, we can prepare to open for business."

She gave a perfunctory "oh."

After Yang Zhi and Bai Xi finished eating, they went to help out at their host's house, while Bai Xi sat comfortably on the balcony, basking in the afternoon sun and drinking tea.

A few days later, Bai Xi and Yang Zhi packed their things and returned to the city.

Before returning, there was a small incident: Yang's mother overheard Bai Xi's conversation with Bai's aunt and felt that Bai Xi was a bit cold-hearted.

If even the relative who raised her can be treated so coldly, how much sincerity can she possibly have for her own son?

After all, she was the one who raised her. No matter how many mistakes she made, they should be in the past. But Bai Xi still held a grudge against her aunt. Yang's mother felt that Bai Xi was a bit heartless.

So Yang's mother was a little worried about her son and even pulled Yang Zhi aside to whisper something to him.

It was simply to warn Yang Zhi to be more careful and to remind him not to entrust all his money to Bai Xi for safekeeping.

As soon as Yang's mother said this, Yang Zhi immediately retorted, feeling that his mother was becoming increasingly tactless.

Without even understanding the whole story, they made random comments, and Yang Zhi's few words left Yang's mother speechless.

Of course, Bai Xi didn't know this. The thought of going home made her very excited. After all, she really couldn't stand living in Yangjia Village. In Bai Xi's heart, her only home was in the city.

Bai Xi missed home after being away for so long. She missed her big bed, the soft sofa, and the flowers and plants in the house.

As soon as Bai Xi stepped into the small house where she had lived for many years, she took a deep breath with delight, feeling that everything here was so pleasing to the eye.

Especially when she saw the plants and flowers she watered with flower petal water, they grew lush and vibrant.

Even after being away from home for only ten days, Bai Xi felt that the plants and flowers on the balcony looked listless.

The renovated house now has a spacious living room, a large dining room, and the bedrooms are much bigger than before. In short, it's huge!

Because Bai Xi loves growing flowers, Yang Zhi specially reserved a flower room for her during the renovation, which is connected to the large balcony.

Bai Xi hadn't rested enough when she couldn't wait to go to the greenhouse to water the plants that needed watering and fertilizing. Looking at the flowers she had carefully tended, Bai Xi felt incredibly satisfied.

The living room has become much fresher and free of any odor thanks to these green plants.

Yang Zhi looked at the lily bamboo, schefflera, and orchid on the TV cabinet in the living room and found them very pleasing to the eye.

Looking at his fair belly, he couldn't imagine whether the green plants would still be the same once the baby could run and jump.

Looking at Bai Xi, who had become lively and energetic as soon as she returned, Yang Zhi knew that she must have been uncomfortable staying in Yangjia Village.

Since Bai Xi is uncomfortable going back, he can go back alone from now on.

Yang Zhi wanted to go up and help Bai Xi, but she stopped him, saying she wanted to take care of the flowers herself.

Just then, Yang Zhi's phone rang. He looked at it and saw that it was Hu Qiaosheng calling.

"Hey Yang Zhi, I'm having dinner out with some guys from the police station and the health bureau. Want to come over?" Hu Qiaosheng's highly recognizable voice came through the phone as soon as he answered.

Yang Zhi immediately knew that Hu Qiaosheng was going to introduce him to his network of contacts, and readily agreed.

"Honey, Qiao Sheng asked me to go out for dinner. Are you okay staying home alone?"

Yang Zhi was about to leave as soon as he got home. Although Bai Xi felt a little awkward, she knew he was really busy, so she quickly adjusted her mood.

Bai Xi wasn't surprised at all that Hu Qiaosheng was asking Yang Zhi out. Ever since she and Yang Zhi got married, they had been very close and often dined together with friends, which was quite normal for them.

"I'm fine, you go ahead."

"What do you want to eat tonight? I'll bring it back for you when I get back."

Bai Xi thought for a moment about what good food was available outside, then shook her head. "Don't worry about me. I'll go to the market to buy some groceries and cook it myself."

Suddenly, Bai Xi seemed to remember something. "Wait a minute, do you have enough money on you? I'll go get you a bank card. You're always treating people to meals, what if you don't have enough?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Bai Xi turned and went into the room to get the card for Yang Zhi. After Yang Zhi left, Bai Xi tidied up the house and then went to the market.

The "Original Flavor" hot pot restaurant became incredibly popular as soon as it opened. The scene was packed with people, and it was so lively that you had to ask someone you knew in advance to book a private room.

There's no way around it, this hot pot is just so authentic and delicious. Everyone who's tried it raves about it, and there are tons of repeat customers.

In just over half a year, Bai Xi, who was in charge of the accounts, had already made a fortune. Apart from paying taxes, the money was flowing in like water.

So she bought two more houses, after all, she now has two sons and needs to plan for their future.

Of course, this wasn't just thanks to the hot pot restaurant. During the World Cup, Bai Xi, seeing Hu Qiaosheng and Yang Zhi so engrossed in watching the games, casually mentioned the final champion to them, encouraging them to take a gamble.

Although the two people were obedient, they didn't do their research properly and bought things randomly, so they only made a small profit in the end.

Hu Qiaosheng regretted it for two whole months afterward, feeling that he had been too hasty and constantly lamenting that he had missed the opportunity to become a tycoon.

That day, Yang Zhi returned home slightly drunk. As soon as he entered the door, he rushed to the nursery, eager to see his adorable little son.

Unfortunately, he was stopped by Bai Xi before he could get close.

"Yang Zhi, how many times have I told you? When you come back from outside, don't go straight near the child. Why can't you remember?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Zhi chuckled, revealing an embarrassed yet mischievous expression.

Bai Xi stepped forward and smelled the strong odor of alcohol on him, which made her furious.

She lifted her foot and gently kicked him. The kick was like a tickle; it didn't hurt Yang Zhi, but it made him feel a little itchy.
