Feng Haidong rode his bicycle with his two children back to his parents-in-law's house.
A lot of people have already gathered at the house.
My parents-in-law are preparing dishes for the New Year's Eve dinner with the rest of the family.
This is a unique feature of Feng Haidong's in-laws' family; they usually spend a week preparing for it every year.
All the delicious dishes prepared must not be touched before New Year's Eve; they can only be eaten during the New Year's Eve dinner.
In his past life, Feng Haidong still remembered that after his parents-in-law passed away, his wife would do the same thing every year, and then invite her younger siblings to her home for New Year's Eve dinner.
However, his wife's condition worsened, and she gradually became unable to do so.
When his wife also passed away, Feng Haidong in his previous life looked like a lonely old man during the New Year.
Because in my previous life, my son and daughter didn't have a good relationship with me.
So after his wife passed away, his son and daughter didn't come home very often.
Now, upon entering the house, seeing his father-in-law and mother-in-law leading the family in preparing various dishes again, Feng Haidong's nose instantly welled up with tears.
Looking at the familiar scene at his parents-in-law's house, Feng Haidong sighed inwardly: This is what Chinese New Year is all about.
As soon as Lu Yue entered the door, she immediately went to her grandparents, aunt, uncle, father, and uncle to show off.
She took out all the things her uncle had bought for her and showed them to everyone, one by one.
The little girl was truly happy at that moment.
Lu Wanhong couldn't help but tease her little niece, asking, "Yueyue, your uncle has bought you so many things. Are you closer to him now? Why don't you become his daughter from now on?"
These words stunned everyone in the family.
Lin Guojin immediately said to her daughter, "What nonsense are you talking about? How can you say such things in front of a child?"
However, Lu Yaobin quickly came to his senses and said with a smile, "Mom, it's okay. I also think that our Yueyue can call her brother-in-law 'Dad' in the future. My sister and brother-in-law seem to be much more responsible than me, their father."
After Lu Yaobin said that, the atmosphere at home instantly became cheerful.
Lu Wanling slapped her younger brother and said, "You know that too? Look at you, do you act like a father? You don't spend any time with your daughter, you're always running around."
Lu Yaobin said, "Big sister, I've been busy with company matters. My brother-in-law has opened a store in the provincial capital, and I need to catch up with him as soon as possible."
Lu Wanling said, "Your brother-in-law does business in the provincial capital, but he hasn't neglected taking care of the children. He comes back to see his son every week and also goes to the hospital to take care of me and the children. Your daughter has been living with us in the provincial capital, and your brother-in-law has taken good care of her. Can't you learn from him?"
Lu Yaobin said with a smile, "After hearing what my older sister said, my brother-in-law is simply an all-around good man. I really need to learn from him. I will definitely try my best to learn from my brother-in-law."
Upon hearing this, Feng Haidong couldn't help but laugh and said, "You shouldn't rush to learn. You should focus on getting your own company in order first."
Speaking of his brother-in-law's advertising company, Feng Haidong asked, "By the way, Brother Tang went to the provincial capital. Do you have enough staff at your company back home to make billboards and storefronts?"
Lu Yaobin said, "That's enough. A lot of the people who went with Brother Tang to renovate for you have come back, haven't they? They've returned to my company now. But my thought is that it's not worth it for my company to keep such a group of people. It would be better to outsource the billboard and storefront design."
Feng Haidong looked at his brother-in-law and asked, "Are you planning to outsource all the construction and only have the company do the design?"
Lu Yaobin said, "Yes, and brother-in-law, I think our company can develop television advertising in the future, instead of just doing billboards and storefronts."
Upon hearing his brother-in-law say this, Feng Haidong immediately thought of how his brother-in-law had done the same thing in his previous life.
Later, in addition to television commercials, his brother-in-law's company also started doing film and television business after the development of the internet.
Feng Haidong was well aware that this was indeed a direction for development.
If my brother-in-law's company wants to grow bigger and not be limited to the local area, then going through television advertising is inevitable.
Feng Haidong looked at his brother-in-law and said, "If you want to do TV advertising, you can try cooperating with TV stations. However, our local station's market is probably limited. For TV advertising to really take off, it needs to be done at least at the provincial level. So you can't give up those billboards and storefronts for now."
Unlike his previous life, where he went to another place and risked everything to make a name for himself, Lu Yaobin did not live up to his previous life.
Now, under Feng Haidong's influence, his brother-in-law has already made a name for himself in his hometown.
Therefore, he naturally faced some choices in the future.
Lu Yaobin said, "I'm not thinking about that for now. I might go out and travel after the New Year, to the provincial capital and other big cities, to see how they do things."
Upon hearing this, Lin Guojin immediately asked, "Are you going to another city?"
Lu Yaobin said, "Mom, we need to keep up with the times. Many things outside are changing, and we can't keep up with the changes here. You can ask your brother-in-law about this."
Feng Haidong looked helpless. His brother-in-law kept bringing up the topic of him, which was giving him a headache.
Faced with the gazes of his mother-in-law and family, Feng Haidong could only continue what his brother-in-law was saying.
“There have indeed been many changes outside. Many things here are lagging behind. Even in the provincial capital, there may be some lag. It can only be said that the provincial capital is slightly better than here. So, if the third brother wants to go out and see the world, that is certainly possible. I suggest he go directly to the south to take a look.”
Seeing that his brother-in-law supported him, Lu Yaobin immediately perked up: "Yes, I think the same way as my brother-in-law. I also want to go to the South to see the world."
Feng Haidong said, "You can go, but you need to take care of things at home and in the company, and what about you and Xiao Zhou? What are you going to do? You can't keep going on like this with them, can you?"
Lu Yaobin said, "It definitely won't stay like this forever. Actually, I've already decided that I'll go with her to get our marriage certificate after the New Year."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the family immediately looked at Lu Yaobin.
Lu Wanhong said, "That's great, Third Brother, you're really efficient."
Lu Feng smiled and said, "Congratulations, Third Brother."
Lu Wanling frowned slightly and asked, "Are you just going to get your marriage certificate with Xiao Zhou?"
Lin Guojin added, "That's right, is just getting a marriage certificate enough? Will Xiao Zhou's family agree? Since you're getting married, you should at least have a wedding ceremony, right?"
Lu Yaobin said somewhat helplessly, "Mom and Dad, it's not that I don't want to have a wedding, it's just that I don't have a place right now."
Hearing this, the whole family felt somewhat helpless.
Now that Lu Yaobin is divorced and the house has been given to his ex-wife, even if he wants to hold a wedding, he doesn't have a house now. So what will he do about the new house if he wants to hold a proper wedding?
Just when everyone was at a loss for what to do.
Feng Haidong suddenly spoke up: "Actually, you three could try a more trendy option, like a destination wedding?"
