On Friday, Lu Chi did not go to school. He called his counselor the night before to ask for leave.
He didn't hide the reason for his leave at all: his real estate company needed to start construction in the suburbs at 10 a.m., so he was taking leave.
The counselor was very open-minded and readily approved Lu Chi's leave.
Anyway, there's only one political education class tomorrow morning, so Lu Chi can go back and study to catch up on the missed lessons.
Such a smart student, the counselor couldn't bear to make things difficult for him.
Lu Chi got up very early in the morning.
There's nothing we need to do about the groundbreaking in the suburbs; that's all the construction company's job. We just need to start on time according to the schedule calculated by the Lu family.
Since construction was being carried out simultaneously in the four suburbs of the southeast, northwest, and southwest, Lu Chi couldn't be in all four places at once. Lu Yuanqing and Pan Feng made arrangements for the two of them to accompany Lu Chi to the southern suburbs, which had the best scenery.
For the eastern suburbs, the eldest daughter, Lu Sangning, will be assigned there; for the western suburbs, the second daughter, Lu Qingru, will be assigned there; and for the northern suburbs, the third daughter, Lu Yanxin, and the fourth daughter, Lu Xiaoyue, will be assigned there.
The fifth daughter, Lu Yunke, was originally scheduled to go to the northern suburbs with her second sister, Lu Qingru, but she dawdled and was still putting on makeup at home at 9:50 in the morning.
A girl who never wears makeup or dresses up has suddenly become obsessed with beauty lately, and I wonder which jerk has gotten her into this mess.
At 9:50, Lu Chi stood with his parents by Pearl Lake in the southern suburbs. The things that had been prepared for the memorial service before the construction started had been arranged by the construction company. On a long table were offerings of fruit, incense, and paper money.
At 9:59, Lu Chi's family and the construction team stood in several rows, bowed to the long table, and lit incense with Lu Chi's name on it.
At 10:00 AM sharp, the excavator started up and symbolically dug a big hole. The rumbling sound signified the start of the project, and Lu Chi's real estate business took a symbolic step forward.
After construction began, Lu Yuanqing and his wife sat on the shore of Pearl Lake with Lu Chi. Lu Yuanqing said to Lu Chi, "Son, it's fine to start construction here, but this beautiful lake should be preserved as much as possible. The houses shouldn't be built too close together."
Lu Chi nodded: "Dad, I know. The houses are all built in the more remote areas, with the inner ring designed to be lake-view rooms so that everyone can see the lake. It takes about 10 minutes to walk here from the houses, in order to preserve the original ecology of the lake as much as possible."
"But since we've decided to build a house here, such a great environment naturally deserves a nice house. I plan to build two big houses, one for myself and one for you and Mom."
Lu Chi pointed to the north side of the lake, where the scenery was even more beautiful than here.
"We plan to build it over there, and that area will become our family's private property. Anyway, the lake is 12 kilometers long, so even if our family occupies some land, there are still many places for everyone to enjoy."
Lu Yuanqing agreed with Lu Chi's words.
Pan Feng didn't understand and said, "Son, why do we need to build so many houses? We have our own house to live in, and you have a company with a dormitory upstairs, as well as a very large villa. Can you live in so many houses?"
Lu Chi shook his head and laughed, "Mom, rich people never think they have too many houses. Although I already have a big villa and my own dormitory upstairs at the company, the view from those houses is nowhere near as good as this one."
With more houses, I can stay at the company during the workday, and go back to my villa in Qingluanju after get off work. Once the lakeside villa is finished, I can also live here. I can live wherever I want.
"Besides," Lu Chi whispered mysteriously in Pan Feng's ear, "what if I have a bunch of kids in the future? We'll need more houses to divide them up!"
When Pan Feng heard Lu Chi say that she wanted to have children in the future, she laughed heartily, her smile almost reaching her lips.
Indeed, whether it's an ordinary family or a wealthy family, everyone is happy and serious about having the next generation.
"Okay, son, I'll listen to you. More children mean more blessings and more houses. Your dad and I will go look around and see where the environment and houses are better, then I'll buy two more."
Lu Chi was afraid his mother would actually buy a bunch of houses, so he quickly stopped her, saying, "Mom, there's no need to buy any more houses. Your son has already started building houses. The houses I build myself are definitely better than those built by others. You don't need to buy any more; we have enough to live in!"
"Okay, I'll do as my son says."
After sitting by the lake with my parents for a while, my dad went to a meeting, and my mom received a call from her old friend and went to play mahjong.
Lu Chi also returned to the city.
Because tomorrow at 3 PM is the day I move into my new villa, Qingluanju.
Although my parents said they would prepare things for me, it is my new house after all, so I should also take care of things and go to the supermarket to buy some things that can represent happiness.
Just then, Su Yunian called and said to Lu Chi, "Lu Chi, aren't you moving tomorrow? Come on, I'll go shopping with you."
Lu Chi was worried about having no one to accompany him, and happily said, "Great! With you with me, it will be much more convenient to shop."
Lu Chi, along with five of his men and Su Yunian, went to the supermarket and bought some cards with messages like "Moving House," "May you be happy," and "Happy Housewarming."
I also bought some bottles and jars, and some fresh flowers.
I also bought balloons to blow up at home.
In short, the moving ceremony was very meaningful.
At the same time, Lu's five older sisters were also busy.
Everyone was buying all sorts of festive items. In the afternoon, Lu Sangning, the eldest sister, called Lu Chi and said that they were coming to the villa to decorate Lu Chi's new home.
Twenty minutes later, the five sisters arrived in a large entourage with bodyguards.
They say that many hands make light work, and in less than two hours, the whole new house looked beautiful and vibrant.
After settling into their new home, everyone left the villa together and went to Lu Chi's company cafeteria, [Haha You], for lunch.
Because there were so many people today, we didn't get our food directly from the cafeteria. Instead, the chef specially prepared a special menu and set up two large round tables around which everyone sat to eat.
During the meal, Lu Yunke's phone kept ringing with messages, and every time she replied, her face was filled with a bright and happy smile.
Lu Chi was surprised and secretly asked Guagua in his mind: "My fifth sister is in a relationship?"
Lu Chi's inner thoughts were heard simultaneously by his four older sisters: the eldest, second, third, and fourth sisters, and Su Yunian.
The group of people appeared to be eating, but they were actually all listening intently.
Only Lu Yunke, the person involved in the incident, didn't hear it, because she was focused on replying to messages.
