Why are you just standing here daydreaming?
Lin Wanwan looked up at him and smiled, "I was thinking that you must have been very naughty when you were a child, running all over the yard. Lu Feng, I am very happy to be able to come back here with you, and I am also very happy that our children can grow up here."
Lu Feng lowered his head and kissed her. "I'm even happier. I'm so glad I married you back then. I didn't miss out on you."
Lu Feng helped her to the living room, which was more spacious. Song Lanzhi was having snacks with Tuanzi and the two little ones from the Ren family.
Seeing Lin Wanwan return, Song Lanzhi was very happy and helped her sit down. "Are you tired?"
"Mom, I'm not tired, don't worry."
"It's hot outside, turn on the fan. Lu Feng, turn it down a bit and turn it on, otherwise you'll easily catch a cold."
Turning to Lin Wanwan, he asked, "Would you like something to eat?"
Lin Wanwan nodded, "Do you still have that sweet tofu pudding from last time? I want to eat that."
"Yes, I just had my aunt make it this morning. You said you wanted to eat it a few days ago, and I remembered."
"Thank you, Mom. When will my older brother arrive?"
Song Lanzhi didn't know either, and turned to look at Lu Feng.
Lu Feng handed the tofu pudding to Lin Wanwan before slowly saying, "We should arrive at 10 a.m. the day after tomorrow."
Lin Wanwan drank half a bowl of tofu pudding and felt much better, and the heat in her body was also driven away.
"Have you prepared everything for my eldest brother?"
"Alright, the rooms are all prepared as before, and the bathroom and toilet have been renovated according to your instructions, so don't worry."
"Have you prepared all of your brother's daily necessities? Did you have Auntie buy the things your brother likes to eat?"
"I bought it, I bought it. Don't worry, you should rest now."
Lin Wanwan nodded, "I won't go to the airport with you the day after tomorrow. I'll stay home and take care of Tuanzi. Otherwise, there won't be enough room in the car later. My brother must have brought a lot of luggage."
Song Lanzhi nodded, "Don't run around in this hot weather."
Lin Wanwan turned her head and asked Lu Feng, "If Big Brother comes back, he won't leave again, right?"
Lu Feng shook his head. "I don't know. My older brother has a green card in the United States. If he comes back, he will have to give up his status there."
"Well, transportation is convenient now, so I can go home. And our country's economy is gradually improving. Have you ever thought about coming back to invest, brother?"
Song Lanzhi chimed in, "That's right, that's right. Things aren't like they used to be. You should try to persuade your older brother to stay home. He's been away for so long, he shouldn't run away anymore."
Lu Feng nodded. "I know."
After finishing her meal, Lin Wanwan went back to her room to take a shower. She had walked around outside and was covered in sticky sweat.
Lu Feng came in just as I finished showering and came out of the bathroom.
"Want to sleep?"
Lin Wanwan shook her head, "I'm not sleepy. I'll draw some diagrams first. Now that there are two stores, I need to put in more effort."
"That stubborn old man still hasn't given in?"
Lin Wanwan laughed when she mentioned it, "No."
"Why are you so fixated on that place? I think the other one is pretty good too."
Lin Wanwan was certainly persistent; the demolition compensation would bring in a lot of money.
"Brother Ren is already negotiating another place, and we're negotiating here too. It would be best if we could close the deal. We're not that tight on funds right now, so this price is acceptable. The location there is indeed quite good, and the people around here have purchasing power."
Lin Wanwan thought for a moment and told him her idea, "If the stubborn old man relents, I'm going to do something different over there. The people there are capable, and I'm going to do personalized customization."
"Personalized customization?" Lu Feng raised an eyebrow.
"It means exactly what it says. Rich people like things to be unique, right? I draw designs based on each person's preferences and create custom designs. I don't produce in large quantities, so the price is naturally much higher. Besides, the circle of rich people is just a few people. There are many hidden talents in Beijing. There are too many rich and powerful people. You and your friends should support me when the time comes."
Lu Feng stared at her intently. "When did you come up with this idea?"
“I had this idea when I first saw this house. Brother Ren mentioned that the owner of the house next door was also interested in selling it. The location is great; I went to see it. It's right at the intersection. If we open up both sides and do a luxurious renovation, with your and your wealthy friends supporting us, and with good products and people helping with promotion, why would we have to worry about money?”
"Is this how you schemed against me?"
Lin Wanwan nestled in his arms, smiling sweetly, "What are you talking about scheming? We're husband and wife."
Lu Feng pinched her cheek. "Isn't it about drawing?"
"Draw it right away!!"
Lin Wanwan spent the whole afternoon revising and editing, leaving only a few usable images.
Lu Feng picked it up and looked at it. "Why are there men's clothes here?"
“When Dongsheng came over before, didn’t I say that someone asked about his clothes? I told him directly that his menswear is all custom-made. He can make them, but the price is very high. He designed four different styles.”
"Who are we going to hire to do it? If we send it to a factory, it'll be hard to keep the blueprints from being leaked."
Lin Wanwan put down her paintbrush. "Actually, it will be leaked no matter who makes it. As long as someone wears it, someone will imitate it. I asked Brother Ren to hire a master tailor. He used to work in a clothing factory. He's retired and still knows how to embroider."
“Brother Ren visited him many times but he refused to come out of retirement. He’s an old man and a bit arrogant. He’s not good at interpersonal communication. Even after retirement, he’s still just a team leader.”
"How did you eventually agree to it?"
Lin Wanwan chuckled, “The old man has a son and a daughter. He’s in a tight housing situation. He’s getting old, and his children are not filial. His wife is sick and often needs to take medicine. His meager retirement pension isn’t even enough to cover his wife’s medicine. His children look down on him because he has no money.”
How did you find out about this information?
“Where there are people, there is trouble. What secrets could be hidden in this alley? I asked Yan Yan to find out. Later, I asked Brother Ren to invite him with conditions: arrange a private courtyard for him and a high salary. It would be hard for him not to be tempted.”
