Country Love: Xie Dajiao, 37, is pregnant!

Chang Gui held Wang Musheng's hand tightly, his face full of smiles.

"Musheng, we've been waiting for you! Come on, let's go into the village, rest and have a drink of water!"

As Wang Musheng followed, he looked around the village and mumbled incoherently:

"Great, great! Chunli has changed a lot. It's much more organized than when I came back from Shangchi. The environment and the village look so nice. By the way, Uncle, how's Xiangxiu?"

"Xiangxiu? Xiangxiu is fine. The clinic was busy today, so we didn't have her come. Why don't you go and see her?"

Wang Musheng waved his hand and said:

"I'd better not bother them. They're already married; let's not give them any more misunderstandings."

Chang Gui thought to himself, "What are you afraid of misunderstanding me from mentioning..."

A group of villagers thronged around him, accompanying him to the village committee. Once inside the courtyard, which was clearly well-arranged beforehand, Wang Musheng strolled around for a while, but didn't see Liu Da Nao. He then turned to look at Chang Gui.

"By the way, Uncle Changgui, where's our Assistant Liu? Big-Headed Liu, he's not here?"

Chang Gui glanced at the half-open door and stammered:

"Ah... Assistant Liu... he... he stayed up late last night, so he's... he's taking a nap in his room now..."

Wang Musheng chuckled upon hearing this and waved his hand:

"Okay, I got it. Don't worry about it. I'll go in and check on him."

He quietly pushed open the door and entered the room to see Liu Da Nao lying sprawled on the bed in a floral pajama set, fast asleep, drool dripping onto the pillow.

Wang Musheng stood by the bed, leaned over, and whistled loudly.

Liu Da Nao rolled over haphazardly, smacked his lips, and didn't wake up.

Wang Musheng then imitated a rooster's crow in a high-pitched voice:

"Ooh ooh ooh... ooh ooh ooh..."

Liu Da Nao waved his hand irritably, muttering with his eyes closed:

"Where did this chicken come from... It's so noisy..."

Seeing that he still didn't wake up, Wang Musheng raised his voice and shouted:

"What the hell are you doing, still half asleep! Get up! What time is it?!"

After shouting this, Liu Da Nao jumped up from the bed, reflexively yelling without even opening his eyes:

"Hey! Chairman!"

When he rubbed his eyes and realized it was Wang Musheng, he panicked and almost fell off the bed.

"Oh my! Mr. Wang! Oh my, what brings you here... I'm here..."

"You really know how to enjoy yourself, sleeping in here." Wang Musheng crossed his arms and glanced at him sideways.

"No, no, Mr. Wang, absolutely not!"

Liu Da Nao was sweating profusely and hurriedly waved his hands to explain:

"I stayed up all night last night organizing research materials, working until the wee hours. I was so tired that I only managed to doze off for a short while! Just a little while!"

Wang Musheng looked at the crowd of people in the courtyard outside, and without embarrassing him in public, waved his hand.

"Alright, enough with the nonsense, what's the plan now?"

Liu Da Nao quickly seized the opportunity and replied:

"Hey Mr. Wang, how about we take a stroll in Ivory Mountain? Let's walk around, take a look at the terrain, and see what development resources the village has!"

"Okay, you should tidy up first. What kind of appearance is it to be wandering around in your pajamas?"

Wang Musheng turned and walked out, casually giving the order:

"I'll go check on my younger brother Lin Chen first, then we'll meet up again."

"Okay, okay! I'll get ready right away! I'll come find you in a bit!" Liu Da Nao replied quickly, his attitude very respectful.

After Wang Musheng left and closed the door, Liu Da Nao patted his chest and gasped for breath. While frantically changing his clothes, he muttered to himself, still shaken:

"My goodness, Wang Musheng just showed up like that, without any warning..."

After leaving the village committee, Wang Musheng had no time for pleasantries with the villagers; his mind was set on seeing Lin Chen as soon as possible. He urged the driver as soon as he got in the car:

"Drive quickly, I'll tell you how to get there."

Driver Xiao Li didn't dare to delay and immediately started the car, driving along the village road towards Lin Chen's house.

They soon arrived at Lin Chen's house. The door was open and unlocked. Upon seeing this, Wang Musheng simply raised his hand and waved to the driver.

"Just drive straight in, no need to stop at the entrance."

The driver slowly turned the steering wheel, and the car steadily drove into the spacious courtyard. As soon as it stopped, Wang Musheng couldn't wait to push open the car door and jump out, shouting loudly, his voice echoing throughout the courtyard.

"Hey bro! Are you home? I've come to see you!"

At that moment, Lin Chen was chatting with Wang Xiaomeng in the living room about the bean product factory. The two were talking about the factory's operation and closing up orders. They were having a lively conversation when a familiar voice suddenly came from the yard. The two looked at each other and immediately got up to go out and greet the person.

Just as he stepped out of the house, he bumped into Wang Musheng, who was striding in.

The two brothers hadn't seen each other for a long time and were especially close. Wang Musheng stepped forward, raised his hand and patted Lin Chen's shoulder heavily, looking him up and down with a smile on his face.

"How have you been lately? You look great, you seem to be living a good life."

"Not bad, bro. How did you get here by yourself? Where's Grandpa?"

"He hasn't returned from Inner Mongolia yet."

Lin Chen stepped aside and gestured for him to come inside:

"Come in and sit down, have some water and rest."

The driver following behind carried two exquisite gift boxes, tiptoed into the house, placed the items at the door, and then turned back to the car to wait quietly.

The two brothers walked side by side into the living room, chatting animatedly, their conversation filled with the warmth of family.

They chatted about everything from Wang Dana's recent health condition to the current situation of the Wang Group, and then about the investment plans for Ivory Mountain Village, moving from one topic to another without any sense of awkwardness.

As Wang Musheng entered the living room, he glanced up and immediately saw Wang Xiaomeng standing by the table, pouring water.

He was stunned by that glance, his steps faltered instantly, and his eyes widened in disbelief.

Wang Xiaomeng wore a light pink shirt, her jet-black hair tied in a ponytail. She had a clean and delicate temperament, with the down-to-earth nature of a country girl, yet also a lively and gentle charm. She was even more attractive than the girls he had seen in the city before.

He quietly reached out and tugged at Lin Chen's arm, lowering his voice and stammering as he spoke, his face full of curiosity.

"Brother, who...who is this? I've never heard you mention him before?"

Lin Chen couldn't help but smile at his naive and unsophisticated appearance. He took the water glass from Wang Xiaomeng and introduced it to her in a natural and generous tone.

"Big brother, this is your sister-in-law, Wang Xiaomeng."

Wang Xiaomeng's cheeks flushed slightly. She lowered her head shyly, smiled shyly, and whispered:

"Big brother."

Wang Musheng was stunned on the spot, and the water glass in his hand wobbled. He widened his eyes, quickly leaned close to Lin Chen's ear, and asked in a low voice with an incredulous expression.

"No... What about Xiaomei? Isn't Xie Xiaomei your wife?"

"That's true."

Lin Chen's tone was incredibly calm, as casual as if he were chatting about everyday things like eating or drinking:

"They are good sisters, and they are equally important to me. However, Xiaomei is the one in the public eye. Just keep that in mind, brother. Don't let anything slip by."

This one sentence completely stunned Wang Musheng, leaving him utterly speechless.

His gaze towards Lin Chen instantly changed completely, filled with admiration and fervor, as if he were seeing a living god. He immediately reached out and tightly grasped Lin Chen's hand, his eyes even reddening with excitement.

"Bro... no, Brother Chen! From now on, you're my brother! You're amazing! I'm in my late thirties and don't even have a boyfriend, and you've quietly found two, both so good-looking, and they get along so well! You must have some secret formula! Please teach me! I'm begging you!"

Lin Chen was amused by his exaggerated appearance and laughed out loud. He raised his hand, pulled it back, and gently patted his shoulder.

"Brother, what's the secret? It's all about sincerity for sincerity. How about this, I'll take you somewhere in a bit to broaden your horizons."

After saying that, he turned to look at Wang Xiaomeng, who was smiling slightly to the side:

"Xiao Meng, is your factory open today?"

Wang Xiaomeng gently shook her head and replied softly:

"No, the orders in Changchun were just completed. I gave the workers a day off to rest. There's just some finishing work left."

Lin Chen nodded, then turned to wink at Wang Musheng and introduced him with a smile.

"Brother, your sister-in-law runs her own bean product factory, and she's quite capable. Shall we go check out the factory later and take a look at local businesses?"

Wang Musheng's eyes lit up instantly, and he immediately understood what was meant. He nodded repeatedly, showing an exceptionally positive attitude.

"Great! We must investigate! We absolutely must strongly support my sister-in-law's factory!"

Without hesitation, Wang Musheng pulled out his phone, dialed Liu Danao's number, and immediately gave the order as soon as the call connected:

"Hey, Assistant Liu, let's change the itinerary. We'll skip the mountain climb for now and check out some local businesses first. Let's go to Wang Xiaomeng's Bean Products Factory."

Liu Da Nao, who was on the other end of the phone, had just hurriedly changed his clothes and was adjusting his buttons in front of the mirror when he heard this, and he was completely confused.

"Huh? Mr. Wang, wasn't it agreed that we'd first inspect Ivory Mountain? What are we going to the tofu factory for? What's there to inspect there?"

"Why...why wasn't any investigation conducted?"

Wang Musheng immediately began to argue earnestly, speaking with righteous indignation;

"If we develop ecotourism in the future, won't tourists have to eat tofu? Tofu is essential to people's livelihood! Tofu is the foundation, so we have to check the quality of the tofu first."
