Lu Yaobin received a page from his brother-in-law and quickly drove back to his parents' house.
Upon entering and seeing his brother-in-law, Lu Yaobin was overjoyed: "Brother-in-law is back! I received your pager and came to see you right away."
Feng Haidong said with a smile, "It must have been tough for the third brother to come back so late."
Lu Yaobin said, "It's not hard work. I have a car, so it's convenient for me to drive back."
Lu Wanling said, "You still need to be careful when you drive at night."
Lu Yaobin replied, "Okay, don't worry, big sister."
Lin Guojin said, "Your brother-in-law is going to pick up your older sister and the children to go to the provincial capital this weekend. He wants to celebrate Children's Day with the children and Fanfan's tenth birthday. If you don't have anything to do this weekend, could you drive them back to the provincial capital?"
Lu Yaobin asked after hearing this, "Is it this weekend?"
Feng Haidong nodded: "Yes, this weekend."
Then Feng Haidong asked, "Where's Yueyue? You didn't bring her back?"
Lu Yaobin said, "Yueyue was picked up by Xiaoxiao in the evening, and Xiaoxiao took Yueyue back to her parents' house to stay."
Feng Haidong smiled and said, "Not bad, it seems Yueyue and Xiao Zhou get along well."
Lu Yaobin was quite proud: "It's alright. Xiaoxiao treats Yueyue very well. Yueyue can accept Xiaoxiao now. In particular, Yueyue is quite well-behaved and is also liked by Xiaoxiao's parents."
Lu Wanling said, "It's better not to let Yueyue go to Xiao Zhou's house all the time. What will her parents think? Xiao Zhou isn't even married to you yet, and she's already taking care of your child?"
Lin Guojin agreed with his eldest daughter: "Yes, we can't go too often, otherwise their parents will have opinions even if they don't say it, after all, you and Xiao Zhou are not married yet."
Feng Haidong asked, "When are you and Xiao Zhou planning to get married?"
Lu Yaobin said, "It should be in the second half of the year. I've been busy with company matters lately, and I need to finish the cases I have in the second half of the year so I can have the money to get married."
Lu Yaobin continued, "No matter what, I have to prepare a house. I can't let Xiaoxiao live with me in a rented house after she gets married, can I?"
Lu Chengzong couldn't help but say, "Whose fault is this? Didn't you cause this yourself?"
Seeing his father-in-law's annoyance, Feng Haidong quickly advised, "Dad, that's all in the past. Now, Xiao Zhou and Lao San have a good relationship, and Xiao Zhou treats Yueyue well too. Lao San's company is also making money, and they'll buy a house in the second half of the year. They should be able to get married."
Lu Yaobin echoed his brother-in-law's words, "That's right, Dad, don't worry, I will definitely bring you a wife."
Lu Chengzong was still a little uncomfortable after hearing his son's words, but he didn't say anything more.
Lin Guojin said, "Do you have time this weekend? If you do, drive your older sister, brother-in-law, and children to the provincial capital."
Lu Yaobin readily agreed: "I definitely have time. If I don't have time, I can make arrangements to make time."
Lu Yaobin then asked, "Mom and Dad, are you going?"
Lin Guojin laughed and said, "Look, another one is asking us if we want to go. It's the weekend, you're taking all the kids with you, can't you leave the two of us old folks at home to rest?"
Lu Yaobin immediately replied, "Yes, yes, we'll take the kids out this weekend. Mom and Dad, you can get some rest."
Lu Yaobin then did some calculations and said, "In that case, my minivan will be just the right size to fit everyone. I'll invite Xiaoxiao along too, and we'll go to the provincial capital for a nice weekend."
Lu Chengzong said, "You're taking so many children with you, so please be careful while driving."
Lu Yaobin promised, "Dad, don't worry, safety will definitely be my top priority."
After finalizing their weekend plans, Feng Haidong and his brother-in-law led their son and Yang Xiaoxi away from his parents-in-law's house.
Tonight, Feng Haidong plans to take his son home to stay.
Since there were still a few days until the weekend, Feng Haidong planned to go back to town tomorrow to take a look.
Before leaving his parents-in-law's house, Feng Haidong tiptoed to his sleeping daughter's bedside.
Then I saw that my daughter was already awake, looking around with her big, dark eyes wide open.
When the little girl saw her father, she stared at him intently for a while.
This time, the little girl wasn't scared by her father; instead, she smiled at him.
Seeing his daughter smile at him, Feng Haidong smiled happily, bent down and leaned closer to his daughter and said, "Mengmeng is such a good girl. Daddy is taking your brother home to sleep. Mengmeng, you have to be a good girl and listen to Mommy tonight."
After saying that, Feng Haidong kissed his daughter's little face.
This surprised Feng Shimeng.
The little girl stared at her father for a while, then raised her little hand and gently patted his face, and then surprisingly smiled at him again.
Seeing his daughter's smile filled Feng Haidong with immense satisfaction.
Finally, with his wife holding their daughter as they saw him off, Feng Haidong and his brother-in-law led the two older children away.
Under her mother's guidance, Feng Shimeng waved goodbye to everyone with a smile.
Feng Haidong and his entourage returned to the restaurant.
The restaurant was doing brisk business at the time; although there was no queue outside, the restaurant was already full.
Looking at the business in the restaurant, Lu Yaobin said to Feng Haidong, "Brother-in-law, your restaurant business has always been very good, especially after crayfish came into season, business has become even better."
Feng Haidong said with a smile, "It seems that everyone still prefers crayfish."
Lu Yaobin said, "That's true. Many people in my company like it too, especially the women. They really love crayfish. They often come to your restaurant together on weekends."
Upon hearing this, Feng Haidong said, "Really? You won't be sending all the wages you pay them here from now on, will you?"
Lu Yaobin was taken aback at first, then chuckled and said, "No, eating crayfish doesn't actually cost that much."
Lu Yaobin then asked, "Brother-in-law, I heard that your store in the provincial capital is doing even better business than this?"
Feng Haidong said, "I can't say it's okay, it's probably about the same. It's just that there are more people in the provincial capital, and my store in the provincial capital is near the pedestrian street, so the opening hours are later than at home."
Lu Yaobin said, "Now, the businesses around here stay open quite late every night."
Upon hearing this, Feng Haidong asked, "Does the business stay open very late? Does Xixi also stay up very late at night?"
Yang Xiaoxi immediately said, "Uncle Feng, I don't stay up very late with my parents. I usually sleep at my grandparents' house with my brother Fanfan."
Feng Haidong only realized what was going on after hearing what the children said.
It turns out that Yang Xiaoxi is now staying at Feng Haidong's parents-in-law's house at night.
Then, Feng Qifan would sleep in a small folding bed in the same room as his mother and sister at night, while Yang Xiaoxi would sleep in Lu Wanhong's room.
This arrangement is quite good, as it makes it convenient for Feng Qifan and Yang Xiaoxi to go to and from school together.
Of course, this arrangement relieved Yang Chengjian and Dong Xia of their worries, allowing them to stay open later in the evenings during the crayfish season.
Feng Haidong checked the time; it was almost nine o'clock in the evening. He went in and told everyone.
Feng Haidong took his son and Yang Xiaoxi home together. He planned to let Yang Xiaoxi sleep at his house tonight, so that it would be more convenient for the two children to go to school tomorrow.
