Lu Qing's daughter was fascinated by what she heard, her mouth wide open and her eyes sparkling with excitement, as if she could already see herself sitting in the library, happily flipping through books.
Although Mrs. Lu didn't say anything, the confusion in her eyes was gradually replaced by a hint of amazement. She began to carefully examine the vacant land in front of her, as if she was imagining what the future would look like in her mind.
"Grandma, look, with a library, children don't have to go to school and squeeze in to read books. They can learn knowledge at home. How great!" Shen Qiqi struck while the iron was hot and continued to "sell" her library to Mrs. Lu. "Also, our family can have another place for leisure and entertainment. When we have nothing to do in the future, we can come here to read books and cultivate our sentiments. How meaningful!"
Lu Qing also joined the "sales army" at the right time. He walked over to Mrs. Lu and whispered, "Mom, Qiqi is right. Building this library will be good for the children and for our family. Just agree to it!"
Hearing what her son said, the hesitation on Mrs. Lu's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a hint of relaxation.
She sighed, her eyes softening. "Never mind, you young people can do whatever you want! As long as you don't waste your money, I have no objection!"
As soon as these words came out, Shen Qiqi jumped up excitedly. She hugged Mrs. Lu and kissed her on the face excitedly, "Grandma, you are so kind! I love you so much!" Lu Qing's daughter also cheered and the whole yard was instantly shrouded in a joyful atmosphere.
Shen Qiqi turned around and looked at Lu Qing. Their eyes met, and all the emotion and joy were concentrated in them.
Lu Qing held Shen Qiqi's hand tightly, as if to say: "Don't worry, I'm here, everything will be fine."
"Then, can we start building the library?" Lu Qing's daughter tilted her head and asked curiously.
Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing smiled at each other.
"Get started! We must get started!" Shen Qiqi waved her hand, like a female warrior with chicken blood, rolled up her sleeves and got to work.
Lu Qing was naturally her most loyal ally, and he picked up his tools and rushed to the construction site.
Although Mrs. Lu and her daughter Lu Qing didn't have much strength, they consciously acted as cheerleaders, shouting "Come on" from time to time, and the atmosphere was very lively.
In the following days, all members of the Lu family turned into infrastructure maniacs, working day and night.
Lu Qing also demonstrated his amazing hands-on ability. He was proficient in carpentry, bricklaying, and plastering. He was simply an all-round master.
Shen Qiqi was responsible for coming up with ideas and perfectly integrating modern architectural concepts with the rustic style of the 1970s, making the library both practical and beautiful. She is simply a leader in the "rustic trend."
After the unremitting efforts of the whole family, the family library was finally completed on a sunny day!
The red brick walls, wooden bookshelves, and sunlight shining through the windows onto the pages of books make the entire library exude the fragrance of knowledge.
There are more than 500 books neatly arranged on the bookshelf, covering all kinds of genres. It is simply a small library!
Not only that, they also successfully raised more than 300 yuan for building the museum, which was absolutely an astronomical figure at the time!
"Wow, this is exactly the library of my dreams!" Shen Qiqi looked at everything in front of her and almost jumped up with excitement. This scene was more exciting than her winning five million!
Lu Qing stood beside her, with a proud smile on his face.
Although Mrs. Lu was still saying "it's a waste of time", she had a big smile on her face. That was the result of the hard work of her grandchildren and granddaughters-in-law, and she was proud of it!
Lu Qing's daughter was even more happy running around in the library, touching books and looking at the window, completely immersed in joy. The most genuine happiness of a child was fully displayed in her.
"We succeeded! We really did it!" Shen Qiqi hugged Lu Qing excitedly, her eyes filled with tears. That was joy, that was touching, and that was proof that all her efforts were not in vain!
Lu Qing also hugged her tightly, responding to her excitement with a warm embrace.
Old Mrs. Lu and Lu Qing's daughter also joined the hugging team. The family hugged each other tightly, laughter and crying intertwined, and the whole yard was filled with the smell of happiness.
This is not only the completion of the library, but also the best proof of their family's unity!
The completion of the family library caused quite a stir in the village, and villagers came to watch and marveled at it.
Looking at the dazzling array of books, many people showed envy.
Shen Qiqi knew that this was just the beginning. She wanted to make this library play a greater role and let the seeds of knowledge take root and sprout in the entire village!
As the sun sets, its afterglow shines on the red brick walls of the library, giving the small building a golden glow.
The Lu family sat at the door of the library, talking and laughing, it was very warm.
Shen Qiqi took some of the funds she had raised earlier, her eyes gleaming with determination. She turned and walked into the house, pulling out a canvas bag from under the bed...
