Shen Qiqi pulled Lu Qing aside mysteriously and whispered something.

After hearing this, Lu Qing was stunned at first, then his eyes lit up and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

He nodded heavily and gave Shen Qiqi a look that said "Leave it all to me."

Early the next morning, a tense atmosphere permeated the Lu family compound.

Shen Qiqi got up early on purpose, cleaned the yard thoroughly, and placed a large table in the middle of the main hall, covered with a brand new red cloth, which gave it a sense of ceremony.

With this posture, people who didn’t know the truth thought that the Lu family was going to have a wedding!

"What are you doing? Why is it so formal?" Old Mrs. Lu walked in with a suspicious look on her face, followed by Lu Qing's sleepy daughter, who was yawning as she walked.

"Hold a family meeting!" Shen Qiqi said in a firm tone, with the words "no doubt" written all over her face.

Other members of the Lu family also arrived one after another, each with a question mark on their face.

"Ahem," Shen Qiqi cleared her throat and signaled everyone to be quiet, "I called everyone to a meeting today mainly to discuss a very important matter - our family library!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Mrs. Lu and her daughter Lu Qing were immediately furious.

"Library? Again? Shen Qiqi, you haven't given up yet?" Mrs. Lu said with disgust, "What's the point of building that thing? It's a waste of money!"

"That's right," Lu Qing's daughter also agreed, "Why not buy some delicious food!"

Shen Qiqi had expected this kind of reaction from them and was not panicked at all.

She took a deep breath and said slowly, "Grandma, my daughter, I know you don't understand now, but please believe me..." She paused, a sly look flashing in her eyes, "This time, I came prepared!"

Seeing this, Lu Qing immediately understood and walked to Shen Qiqi, holding a mysterious package in his hand.

He blinked at Shen Qiqi, then opened the package with a swish...

When Lu Qing opened the package, he found many exquisite drawings!

What was drawn on the drawing was nothing but a 3D rendering of a home library.

This drawing was not just a random drawing, but was carefully designed by Shen Qiqi using modern knowledge and combining it with the architectural style of the 1970s.

The library not only has a book collection, but also a comfortable reading area, windows with plenty of sunlight, and even a small children's corner. It's simply perfect!

"Wow! What is this? It looks so fun!" Lu Qing's daughter was immediately attracted by the drawing. She looked reluctant just now, but now her eyes were shining.

Although Mrs. Lu didn't show it as obviously as her daughter, the disgust in her eyes was less, replaced by a hint of curiosity.

She picked up a drawing and looked at it carefully, muttering to herself, "This drawing really looks like it."

Seeing this, Shen Qiqi felt a little relieved, but she still refused to relax: "Grandma, this is not just a drawing for fun, this is our future library! Look, there are shelves for books, this is a place to read, and there is space for children to play..."

She pointed at the drawings and began to talk incessantly.

However, Mrs. Lu and Lu Qing's daughter were confused and felt that what Shen Qiqi said was too novel and difficult to digest for a while.

"After saying so much, I still think this thing is useless!" Old Mrs. Lu said stubbornly, but her tone was obviously softened.

The smile on Shen Qiqi's face froze in an instant. She felt that she had seen hope just now, but now she was beaten back to her original state.

Her shoulders slumped slightly, her frustration clearly written on her face.

The air seemed to freeze, and a depressing atmosphere spread in the small hall.

Lu Qing walked silently to Shen Qiqi's side, patted her shoulder gently, and told her with his eyes: "Don't be discouraged, I'm always by your side."

At this moment, Lu Qing's daughter suddenly spoke up: "Mom, can this library really become like this? Can I go and take a look first?"

When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.

Why did Lu Qing's daughter, who had just sneered at the library, suddenly change her temper?

Old Mrs. Lu was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth and her eyes were as big as copper bells.

Shen Qiqi was also stunned, her surprise was beyond words. Her originally dim eyes instantly lit up again, as if the flame of hope had been rekindled.

She excitedly grabbed Lu Qing's daughter's hand, her voice trembling: "Really? Do you really want to go and see it?"

Lu Qing's daughter nodded heavily, her eyes full of anticipation: "Yes! I want to see what a real library looks like!"

Shen Qiqi took a deep breath, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise. She raised her head, looked around at everyone, and said firmly: "In this case, let's set off now without further delay!"

Shen Qiqi waved her hand, like a female general commanding thousands of troops, and marched towards the "construction site" with her family.

It was called a "construction site", but it was actually an open space in the backyard of the Lu family. Lu Qing had already brought people to compact the foundation, and was now waiting for Shen Qiqi's "stroke of genius".

As soon as she arrived at the place, Lu Qing's daughter was immediately attracted by the "big pit" in front of her. She touched here and looked there, as curious as a bird just out of a cage.

Old Mrs. Lu also walked closer. Although she was still muttering "what a mess", the disgust in her eyes had disappeared, replaced by a hint of inquiry.

"Grandma, my daughter, look, this will be our family library in the future!" Shen Qiqi pointed to the foundation and began to explain incessantly, "This is the library. All the books we buy will be placed here in the future. They are neatly arranged and it's comfortable to look at! Over there is the reading area. It has plenty of sunlight and it's comfortable to read! And over there is the children's corner, a place for children to play. It's so wonderful just thinking about it!" Shen Qiqi danced with joy as she spoke, as if the library had already risen from the ground and appeared before her eyes.
