Feng Haidong showed his design drawings to Tang Anguo and others.

Tang Anguo was somewhat surprised after looking at it: "Haidong, the picture you drew on the screen is really good."

Feng Haidong said with a smile, "Senior brother, after so many years in the factory, this is all the stuff I can still use now."

Lu Yue followed her great-uncle. When she heard people praising him, the little girl took his hand and stood on tiptoe, wanting to see the drawing he had made.

Tang Anguo saw the little girl peeking out from next to Feng Haidong and smiled as he lowered the blueprints in his hand.

"Yueyue wants to see too? Come on, let's all watch together."

Seeing that Tang Anguo had lowered the blueprints, Lu Yue smiled and said, "Thank you, Uncle Tang."

Then the little girl looked at the drawing carefully before saying, "This was drawn by my uncle? It's so beautiful! All the lines are so straight!"

Feng Haidong said with a smile, "Because these lines were drawn by my uncle with a ruler, of course they are very straight."

Lu Yue looked at it carefully again and asked, "Uncle, is this a house?"

Hearing his niece's words, Feng Haidong was somewhat surprised: "Yueyue recognized it as a house?"

Lu Yue pointed with her little finger and said, "Yes, these are individual rooms, and these two lines are walls."

Feng Haidong said, "You're absolutely right. This is indeed a house, but it's the floor plan of the shop that my uncle rented out to run his business."

Lu Yue looked up and asked curiously, "What's a floor plan?"

Feng Haidong explained, "A floor plan is a view of the entire house from the roof, showing one side of the building. It looks like a flat surface, and that's what a floor plan is."

Lu Yue nodded and said, "Yueyue understands. Then, Uncle, please continue."

Feng Haidong smiled and said, "Okay."

Then Feng Haidong had a discussion with Tang Anguo.

Where should the kitchen be located? Approximately how much space should be allocated to the kitchen area? What should be done with the remaining space? How should the partitioned or separated seating areas be distributed and arranged?

Tang Anguo was completely astonished as he listened to Feng Haidong, and he didn't know how to respond to Feng Haidong.

After listening for a while, Tang Anguo basically understood, so he also gave some of his own suggestions.

Following Tang Anguo's advice, Feng Haidong made some modifications to the renovation drawings.

Finally, a fairly complete set of renovation drawings was completed.

Next, Tang Anguo and Feng Haidong went to the building materials market to purchase building materials for the renovation.

Tang Anguo is quite experienced in this area.

When the factory was building staff housing, it was Tang Anguo who helped with the contacting and purchasing of materials.

Later, Tang Anguo renovated his own house bit by bit.

So Feng Haidong went to the provincial capital's building materials market with Tang Anguo and thought to himself that asking Tang Anguo to come to the provincial capital to help with the renovation was a very wise choice.

With Tang Anguo's help, Feng Haidong had much less trouble with the renovation of the new store.

Tang Anguo personally purchased almost all the building materials, while Feng Haidong simply contacted his elder brother and younger brother directly for things like cement.

Because they all work at cement factories in their hometowns, contacting them allowed us to get a cheap factory price directly.

With all the materials prepared, Feng Haidong and Tang Anguo officially began the renovation.

In order not to disturb the rest of the surrounding residents, Feng Haidong and his colleagues basically start their day after the residents leave for work and finish their busy day when they return from get off work.

At lunchtime, Feng Haidong was about to buy boxed lunches when his older cousin and brother-in-law came to check on him.

Big cousin Liu Fenzhen said, "From now on, your brother-in-law and I will take care of all three meals a day, and we will make sure that everyone eats well and is full. Don't order any boxed meals outside and waste your money."

Feng Haidong understood that his older cousin wanted to help, so after consulting with everyone, he agreed to let his older cousin and brother-in-law be responsible for the construction team's meals.

Feng Haidong originally wanted to give money, but his older cousin and brother-in-law refused.

Later, he thought that once the store opened and started making money, he could make up for the shortfall by giving more money to his older cousin and brother-in-law.

Feng Haidong's new store renovation is in full swing in the provincial capital.

He would go to the shop every day to work and renovate with Tang Anguo and the others. They would eat together every day, take a bath together at the bathhouse next to the small hotel in the evening, and then he would go back to his third cousin's house to sleep.

The week passed smoothly, and everything proceeded steadily.

Feng Haidong also took advantage of the weekend to take the train home to check on everyone's situation and to tell them about his life in the provincial capital.

When Feng Haidong went home for the weekend, he brought his niece Lu Yue with him.

The main purpose is to let my parents-in-law meet their granddaughter, and also to let my brother-in-law, Lu Yaobin, take care of my daughter on weekends.

Holding his niece Lu Yue's hand as they entered the train station, Feng Haidong looked at the things his older cousin had bought for him and felt a little helpless.

I was just going home to visit my family on the weekend, but my older cousin insisted on buying me a whole bunch of things.

Lu Yue held her uncle's hand and followed closely beside him.

It seems the little girl has gotten used to being with her aunt, and now that she's home with her uncle, she feels a bit out of place.

Feng Haidong took his little niece onto the train, and only after they sat down did he ask seriously, "Yueyue, does it feel like coming home has become a strange place?"

Lu Yue turned to look at her uncle-in-law, asking with a puzzled expression, "Uncle-in-law, what do you mean by 'stranger'?"

Feng Haidong said, "Strangeness is when you feel like you're not going home, but rather going to a place you don't recognize."

Lu Yue understood immediately, nodded her little head and asked, "Uncle, are we going to see Grandpa and Grandma?"

Feng Haidong nodded and said, "Yes, go see your grandparents and your father. If Yueyue misses her mother, your uncle can take you to see her too."

Lu Yue thought for a moment and said, "Okay, Uncle, please take me to see my mother."

Feng Haidong agreed: "Yes, Yueyue wants to go. After we go back and visit Grandpa, Grandma, and Dad, your uncle will take you to see Mom."

Speaking of which, since her brother-in-law got divorced, apart from the time Lu Yue's mother made a scene, Lu Yue has hardly seen her mother in the past few months.

Although his niece didn't say she missed her mother, Feng Haidong felt that the child must still miss her.

However, because her aunt took good care of her, she temporarily took her mother's place.

Feng Haidong felt that, after all, they were mother and daughter, and so much time had passed, they should be allowed to meet.

Not long after the train started moving, Lu Yue, being a child after all, was quickly drawn to the scenery outside the window and some interesting things happening in the carriage. She regained her lively demeanor and occasionally let out a silvery laugh.

When the train arrived at the station, Feng Haidong led his little niece out of the train station.

To Feng Haidong's surprise, his brother-in-law Lu Yaobin and Zhou Xiaoxiao came to pick them up together.
