The neighborhood committee's sudden visit was something Feng Haidong hadn't expected.

At the same time, he began to feel wary, fearing that someone in the family compound was probably watching his home.

However, after thinking about it carefully, Feng Haidong felt that it wasn't surprising that his neighbors were watching his house.

After all, Feng Haidong's restaurant has been doing better and better during this period, and it has become famous throughout the city.

Such a reputation inevitably attracts envy and jealousy from neighbors.

So, there will definitely be people watching your home, trying to find something bad about it, or even taking the opportunity to spread rumors about you behind your back and report you to the neighborhood committee. And this kind of thing will probably happen again in the future.

It's impossible to completely eliminate this kind of thing, and it's not easy to find out if someone is sabotaging you behind your back.

At that moment, Feng Haidong's only thought was to buy a big house as soon as possible next year and move out of this family compound.

Of course, this does not mean that Feng Haidong is afraid of some people in the family compound.

Just like the threats made to the two women from the neighborhood committee.

Feng Haidong could have easily asked Chen Zhiyong to help find some people to warn the neighbors in the family compound.

However, Feng Haidong does not intend to do that, because doing so might completely destroy the feelings between neighbors that have existed for so many years.

It's like breaking ties with everyone.

Feng Haidong felt that doing so was unnecessary.

He still hoped to maintain harmony with his neighbors before moving out, even if that harmony was only superficial.

Feng Haidong closed the door and returned home from the yard.

She saw her son standing in the living room, looking at her.

Facing his son, Feng Haidong did not hide anything from him.

"You must have seen and heard everything, right?"

Feng Qifan nodded when he heard his father's question.

Feng Haidong said, "Dad doesn't want to hide anything from you because Dad thinks you're already in fourth grade and should be considered a big kid now. You should be sensible by now."

Feng Qifan said, "Dad, I know that the grandma and aunt from the neighborhood committee don't want the baby in Mom's belly to be born."

Feng Haidong said, "Yes, because the birth of the baby in the mother's womb violates some current policies. Actually, they can't be considered bad people. They are here for their job, but we should still protect the mother and the baby in her womb."

Feng Qifan said, "Dad, I will definitely protect Mom and the baby in Mom's belly."

Feng Haidong nodded and said, "Very good. If anyone asks in the future, you must not tell them, understand?"

Feng Qifan nodded earnestly: "Dad, I understand, I definitely won't tell."

Feng Haidong said, "Son, you and Dad are the men of the family. As the men of the family, you must protect our home and protect Mom and the baby in Mom's belly."

Feng Qifan said earnestly again, "Dad, I know. I will definitely protect Mom and the baby in Mom's belly."

Seeing his son's sensible manner, Feng Haidong was quite satisfied.

“Great, Dad believes you can do it. Mom isn’t home these days, and Dad is quite busy too, so you might have to rely on yourself for your studies every day. But Dad believes you can do it, right?”

Feng Qifan said, "Yes, Dad, I can do it well."

After thinking for a moment, Feng Haidong said, "Then from now on, we'll do this: you'll go home with Yang Xiaoxi after school every day, and you'll have to do your homework at home, as well as practice your piano and calligraphy. Can you do that?"

Feng Qifan said, "I can do it."

Feng Haidong said, "Okay, Feng Qifan, you must remember that you are the man of the family, so you must keep your word."

Feng Qifan nodded and said, "Dad, I will definitely keep my word."

Feng Haidong said, "Dad has already talked to your Uncle Yang and Aunt Dong. From now on, Aunt Dong will cook dinner for you and Yang Xiaoxi every day. Afterwards, your aunt will come to keep you company. You have to listen to your aunt and not stop studying just because your aunt is keeping you company."

Feng Qifan said, "Don't worry, Dad, I will definitely study hard."

Feng Haidong concluded by saying, "Son, Mom won't be home for a while, and Dad will be busy with our restaurant business, so I won't be able to spend time with you. But everything Dad does is for our family. Dad promises to give you, Mom, and the baby in Mom's belly the best in the future."

As Feng Qifan listened to his father's instructions, a touch of maturity appeared on his still very young face.

"Dad, I will definitely study hard. I know you are working very hard right now. You are working so hard to earn money to buy better things for me, Mom, and the baby in Mom's belly. I promise you that I will study hard, practice the piano and calligraphy, and I will definitely keep my word."

Looking at the maturity on his son's face and listening to his son's words, Feng Haidong smiled and nodded.

"Good son, you are your father's pride."

The father and son spoke in a rather masculine manner. Afterwards, Feng Haidong began preparing lunch, while Feng Qifan took out his violin to practice.

In the following time, Feng Haidong was busy in the kitchen preparing lunch.

Feng Qifan is playing the violin in the living room.

Occasionally, if the tune is off, Feng Haidong will come out of the kitchen to remind him.

When Feng Qifan heard his father's reminder, he would take a good look at the sheet music and quickly correct the mistakes he made.

Lu Wanling probably never imagined that the bond between her father and son would grow so strong that the family would remain harmonious even when she was away.

In particular, Feng Haidong's respect for his son indirectly boosted his son's self-confidence.
