This ink painting depicts a scene of a rural courtyard, with a plum blossom sprouting from the wall, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. Mr. Feng has drawn a rope in a child's hand, with a spotted dog at the end of the rope.
After finishing the painting, Mr. Feng put down his brush and examined it carefully. After a long while, he frowned and said, "Zhenkun, come here for a moment."
"What's wrong?" Butler Zhenkun asked as he walked over.
"I clearly drew a dog, but the more I look at it, the more it looks like a tiger!" Mr. Feng frowned.
Zhenkun glanced at it and said, "What you drew is a dog."
"Is that so?"
“However…” Zhenkun laughed and said, “When you drew the chain, you used too much ink, so the chain is too thick.”
"A thicker one is better, a thicker one is better." Mr. Feng stared at it for a while longer and said, "Tell me, if you paint this dog yellow, wouldn't it look like a tiger?"
"What's wrong with you?" Zhenkun sensed something was amiss.
“It’s alright, would it be appropriate to give this painting to Lu Feng?” Mr. Feng asked again.
"It's suitable. The painting depicts a family scene, with several children enjoying themselves and adults standing nearby. It's a good painting to give as a gift, and the meaning is also quite nice," Zhenkun praised.
“Then it’s settled. This will be a gift.” Mr. Feng sat down and said, “Give him a call and tell him to come to Hong Kong for a visit. Don’t say anything else.”
"good!"
Lu Feng was playing with Duo Duo on the beach, digging for seashells, when Zhou Ya ran over and said, "Mr. Lu, there's a phone call for you from Hong Kong."
"A call from Hong Kong?" Lu Feng was startled and hurriedly asked, "Male or female?"
"A man!"
"Okay, I'll go back right away." Lu Feng stood up and breathed a sigh of relief. He reached out and took Duo Duo's hand, saying, "That's enough playing, let's go back."
"I want to build a castle and dig a canal!" Duoduo didn't want to leave.
"You stay here with her and make sure you don't go into the water, the tide is coming in soon," Lu Feng instructed.
“Okay!” Zhou Ya nodded in agreement.
Lu Feng returned to the living room and asked Jiang Xiaoyan, "Who called?"
"It's the Feng family's butler calling. They even have a butler in their household?" Jiang Xiaoyan asked curiously. "A wealthy family, they still keep the tradition of having a butler."
“The wealthy people over there are sentimental; they’re basically close executives.” Lu Feng sat down and picked up the phone. He already knew that Mr. Feng was preparing to take action, and he felt relieved.
The phone was answered after a while, and Zhenkun's voice came through: "Is this President Lu?"
“It’s my Uncle Kun,” Lu Feng replied.
"Long time no see! How have you been?"
"Thanks to Mr. Feng, everything is stable. The company encountered some problems, but they have now been resolved. Mr. Feng, are you in good health lately?" Lu Feng said politely.
"President Feng, it's been a long time since we've seen you. Zhiyao mentioned you after he came back and wanted to invite you over to catch up. When are you free?" Zhenkun asked.
"I'm free recently, tomorrow..."
Upon hearing that he was leaving tomorrow, Jiang Xiaoyan, who was sitting next to him, hurriedly tugged at him and said, "Tomorrow won't work."
Zhenkun, who was on the other end of the phone, had obviously heard this and laughed, saying, "You should discuss it with your wife."
Lu Feng turned to look at Jiang Xiaoyan, covered the microphone with his hand, and asked, "When will it be ready?"
“Today is the 25th. You can leave on June 10th, giving yourself half a month to prepare,” Jiang Xiaoyan said, calculating the days.
"Half a month? The daylily is almost cold." Lu Feng looked at her. He didn't know if the daylily was cold or not, but Su Yourong was definitely going to be cold.
“You might not be back for a while since you're away on a business trip, so let’s make it June 5th, ten days!”
Lu Feng thought for a moment and said, "June 1st, five days should be fine."
"Five days isn't enough. This isn't something that can be done three or five times. We need to be more reliable. Next year is the Year of the Dog, a very auspicious zodiac sign. Let's hurry up!" Jiang Xiaoyan looked at him and said, "Why aren't you in a hurry at all? How old will I be after the New Year?"
"I'll be back in a few days, it's set for June 1st." Lu Feng picked up the phone and said, "There's something urgent at home these days, I'll definitely visit Mr. Feng on June 1st."
"Okay, I look forward to Mr. Lu's arrival." Zhenkun said a few polite words and then hung up the phone.
Lu Feng turned around and saw Jiang Xiaoyan taking out a calendar and flipping through it, counting the days on her fingers. Lu Feng sighed and muttered, "What a mess!"
