reshape life

Lu's father and Lu's mother standing at the door were both surprised and delighted. They never thought that Wei Zhanjie and Fang Yuqing would rush over on the third day of the Lunar New Year. They hurriedly let people in to wash fruit and make tea.

Sitting in the living room, Wei Zhanjie and his wife took a look at the rosy complexion and looked good, the eldest son was very happy, took the hot tea handed over by Lu's mother, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your trouble, brother and sister-in-law. I think Linxuan seems to be a little fatter than when he was in the capital."

"Really?" Lu's mother looked back at Wei Linxuan, and said, "I think this child is still too thin, and his appetite is small. Now is the time for him to grow up, so he should eat more."

Wei Zhanjie and Lu's father smiled at each other and shook their heads.There is always a kind of thinness in this world called "Mom thinks you are thin", and it is obvious that Lu's mother is a typical representative.Not only did she feel that Wei Linxuan was thin, even when the two brothers Lu Chi and Lu Heng first arrived home, Mother Lu kept talking about losing weight, and she had to make up for it during the Chinese New Year.

Fortunately, the two brothers of the Lu family and Lu Miaomiao both have big appetites, and they can eat three bowls of rice without being forced by Lu's mother.In contrast, Wei Linxuan, who only served a bowl of rice every meal and did not need to add more rice, became the focus of Lu's mother's care.

And Lu's mother's thinking is also very simple, that is, it's okay not to fill the rice, eat more vegetables, even if the amount of food can't keep up with the two foodies Lu Chi and Lu Heng, at least it must be aligned with the little girl Lu Miaomiao...

So Fang Yuqing said that her son's complexion has improved and he has gained weight, which is definitely not a simple polite statement.

Seeing Wei Linxuan living so comfortably in Lu's house, Wei Zhanjie and his wife couldn't say how happy they were.The two of them were afraid that Wei Linxuan would spend the New Year alone at someone else's house during the New Year's Eve, for fear that he would feel uncomfortable, so they hurriedly dealt with Yanjing's affairs, and they had the cheek to visit on the third day of the Lunar New Year.

But he didn't expect that his son's life in Lu's house was more comfortable than he imagined.

This can't help but make Wei Zhanjie and his wife sigh again that Wei Linxuan is lucky to be able to make a good friend like Lu Heng.

Several people sat and chatted for a while, and then Fang Yuqing noticed that the five members of the Lu family and their son were still wearing down jackets, and there were hats and gloves on the coffee table opposite, obviously looking like they were about to go out but were blocked at home appearance.

Fang Yuqing couldn't help asking curiously what everyone was going to do.

Before the Lu family could speak, Wei Linxuan had already said with a smile: "Uncle Lu will take us to the door to carve a snow sculpture of the family portrait, and then take pictures as a souvenir."

As he said that, he told the whole story about the whole village carving the twelve zodiac signs together two days ago.

This is a very fresh and exciting way to play.

The eyes of Wei Zhanjie and his wife lit up. When they came, they saw twelve snow sculptures piled up at the entrance of the village. They were ugly and cute, and they looked very cute.Fang Yuqing originally thought that this was a landmark sculpture hired by Lujiacun, but she was still wondering what kind of aesthetic point of view could make the snow sculpture look like this.After hearing Wei Linxuan's words, I realized that it was the head of Lujia Village who called on the villagers to hang out together.

Such a novel way of playing, not to mention the children at home, even Wei Zhanjie and his wife, who rarely do outdoor activities, are eager to try it.

"Such a fun thing, take us with you, too?"

Of course, Lu's father and Lu's mother would not object, so the two families dressed up and walked out of the house.

There was another heavy snowfall last night, and the weather turned fine in the morning, and the sun shone on the ground, reflecting a dazzling light on the white snow.

Father Lu commanded Lu Zhi, Lu Heng, and Wei Linxuan to push the nearby new snow over. He himself took Lu Miaomiao, Lu Miaomiao, and Wei Zhanjie and his wife to squat in front of the gate to make eight big snowdrifts next to each other. Then he skillfully rolled out eight snowballs as the snowman's head, and pressed them side by side on the eight big snowdrifts according to the proportion.

Then I took out my own carpentry tools, and the snow sculpture tools I borrowed from my neighbors and laid them on the snowman to paint a little bit.The other five members of the Lu family and the three members of the Wei family stood next to Father Lu and acted as models for him.

It is said to be a model, but in fact, no one stands honestly.The snow sculptures in front of my house are different from the public version at the entrance of the village. Each snowman represents my family.

In the beginning, Lu Miaomiao had a whim and wanted to wear a floral skirt and a red scarf for her snowman.So Mother Lu took Lu Miaomiao back to the house to find a few colorful plastic bags, and stitched them together to form a skirt for Lu Miaomiao's snowman to wear. The picture was a bit beautiful, but Lu Miaomiao felt too ugly. In the end, I decided to wrap a red scarf around the snowman myself, and put a plastic bucket on my head as a hat.

Then Lu Heng and Wei Linxuan made a suggestion, saying that they wanted everyone to sign on their own snowman as a souvenir, but when signing, Lu Heng and Wei Linxuan accidentally signed their names on the other party's snowman up.Fortunately, with Lu's father's carving skills, the face of the snow sculpture is not so clear, and no one else pays much attention to it.

Only brother Lu Chi looked at the two little ones with a smile.He was noncommittal about the two men's sullen show of affection.Then secretly put a top hat made of snow on my own snowman, so that it can look a little taller than other people’s snowmen~~

Wei Zhanjie and his wife haven't played such a childish and relaxing outdoor game for many years.President Wei and the president's wife, who are used to sitting in offices and beauty salons, made their own snowmen clumsily. Although they are not as round and cute as the snowmen made by the Lu family's experienced workers, they are still the fruit of their husband and wife's labor. The two of them were very satisfied.

Only Lu's father and Lu's mother were very simple and didn't make beautification on their snowmen. They just put the two fat snowmen next to each other, found a long red scarf, and wrapped it around the necks of the two snowmen. Mom cleverly tied a concentric knot.

This industrious and simple show of affection almost confused a certain couple's faces.

The Northeast is extremely cold in mid-winter. Even though they put on the heaviest clothes, when the two families finished making snowmen at the door, their soles were still cold and their hands were icy.

After the whole family took a family portrait in front of the snow sculpture, they couldn't wait to get back into the house. The warm air was blowing on their faces. Everyone's noses instantly itched under the alternation of cold and heat, and they sneezed several times in succession.

Mother Lu hurriedly went to the kitchen to fill a few bowls of brown sugar ginger jujube tea that had been boiled long ago, and asked everyone to drink a bowl of it to relieve the cold.In addition, Mother Lu specially made her own best jujube cake.

Unlike the cakes sold outside that are mixed with various additives and saccharin, the jujube cake made by Lu's mother is purely made of peeled jujube meat, then mixed with brown sugar and rose water, mixed with millet Stir well into the prepared batter, then pour it into the mold and steam it directly in the pot.So relatively speaking, the taste is not as sweet and greasy as the outside, but with a thick and sweet taste.With the brown sugar ginger jujube tea boiled by Lu's mother, everyone's hearts are warmed up.

Lu's mother also said: "It's still early, let's eat some snacks first. We can eat more in the evening."

People who like to maintain their health pay more attention to eating or not eating at night, but for people like the Lu family who can starve to death if they miss one of their three meals a day, it often means eating a big meal at night.Because the family members who have been busy all day leave school after school and get off work after get off work, the whole family gathers lively at the dinner table while eating and chatting, and the gossip they chat can fill another bowl of rice.

Wei Zhanjie and Fang Yuqing were secretly speechless.His eyes turned around calmly on Er Sang's body, and he thought to himself that it's no wonder that he has only come to Lu's house for a few days, and his son's complexion is not only ruddy and shiny, but also looks fatter.

They are all fed like this.

Just as everyone was drinking tea and chatting with teacups in their hands, someone knocked on the door of Lu's house.

The person who came seemed to be very polite, and the way he knocked on the door was restrained. Mother Lu put down her job and went to open the door in confusion. She saw that most of the villagers in Lujia Village were standing outside the house—all of them came to see the famous star Fang Yuqing of.

Lu Heng's third uncle even asked a little shyly if he could take a photo with the big star or something.

Everyone didn't have the guts to come and disturb them, for fear that Wei Zhanjie and his wife would not like it.But when everyone in the Lu family was making a snowman outside the door, the elders and fellow villagers in the village were secretly spying one by one, and found that Wei Zhanjie and his wife seemed quite amiable.So with the mentality of giving it a try, the folks in Lujia Village elected the village leaders headed by the third uncle to play the forward. If Fang Yuqing is willing to chat with them and take pictures, that would be the best thing.If they don't want to, then they don't want to bother them, and they just go back.

Wei Zhanjie and his wife came all the way to spend the New Year with their son, not just to show their prestige to the Lu family.Noticing the movement at the door, before the embarrassing mother Lu could speak, Fang Yuqing, who was following behind, greeted everyone with a smile. The screen goddess of thousands of people.

Mother Lu was relieved by Fang Yuqing's approachability, and quickly let the villagers in.

Fortunately, the Lu family's new home was big enough, and although it was a bit crowded for everyone standing or sitting, they all came in.

After taking photos with Fang Yuqing one by one, they were all content to find places to take them with them. Wei Zhanjie talked with the third uncle and complimented the current development of Lujia Village.The third uncle who heard it smiled and couldn't help but said: "...it's just here now, everyone has money now, and we still want to learn from those villages abroad, where every household builds a villa, which is beautiful. A little bit. You said that they are all from the village, and the crooked nuts can make the village so foreign and beautiful, which is worth learning from.”

The third uncle has never thought about resting the country since Papa Lu opened a farmyard resort in Yanjing.In the first few years, it was due to the fact that the foundation of Lujia Village was too weak, and there were few people coming and going. It was because there was no money to invest and fear that no one would come to invest.However, in the past two years, because of Lu's father and mother Lu helping outside, the villagers in Lujia Village should plant land and raise livestock, especially those who have introduced the most advanced scientific breeding machines from abroad. After the method, the living standard of Lujia Village is definitely not what it used to be.Not only can it fully satisfy Papa Lu's resorts and chain stores, but it can also leave a lot of wealth to sell to surrounding provinces and cities.After the family fortunes of the whole village trembled, they thought more and more about how to enjoy and how to make more money.

The third uncle reads newspapers and related magazine reports every day, and finds that some cities in the south are engaged in tourism, that is, to explore their own local characteristics.Their Lujia Village has real mountains and real water, and the scenery is quite beautiful. The third uncle also wondered if it is possible to build Lujia Village as a whole into a resort.That is, when there are guests, every household entertains them, and when there are no guests, the house is used for their own living...

Wei Zhanjie was all smiles and listened patiently to the nagging of the third uncle.Originally, I just wanted to talk with the old man, but I didn't expect that after listening carefully, the third uncle's opinion was still closely following the trend.

Brother Lu Chi, who was sitting by the side, thought of something, and looked at Wei Linxuan with a smile.He opened his mouth and asked, "Third Uncle, have you ever thought about what style our Lujia Village's new village renovation plan should have?"

"New village renovation plan?" The third uncle was stunned by the new words in Lu Chi's mouth. After thinking about it, he immediately patted his thigh and applauded: "Yes, it is the new village renovation plan. It's a good name. After all, he is a scholar. The words that come out are better than us big bastards."

The third uncle said, and asked Lu Chi's opinion: "What do you think?"

As the only student in Lujia Village who studied abroad at a university that is famous all over the world, Brother Lu Chi's academic qualifications are admired by everyone in the village.The big guys all regard Lu Chi as the standard for educating their children, and they often "how was your brother Lu's back then".Not to mention that everyone can learn such advanced agricultural management knowledge from abroad, thanks to Brother Lu Chi's matchmaking.

Now that the third uncle asks Lu Chi's opinion, it's not just a polite gesture, but he really values ​​Lu Chi's words.

Brother Lu Chi was silent for a moment. Of course, he also had his own ideas about the new village renovation plan of Lujia Village.It's just that with his personality, he never speaks at will when he is not sure, so Brother Lu Chi just smiled and said: "I want to hear what the third uncle and all the uncles think first?"

"That's fine!" The third uncle nodded, and said, "I'll talk about our thoughts first. As for the old man, I'm old-fashioned, and I'm more nostalgic. If you want to say that the bungalows in foreign villages are really beautiful, Especially those with a swimming pool, foreign style, enjoyment. But people in Lujia Village may not be able to enjoy it, especially those who grow lawns, it is a waste. If there is such a place, it is better to clear out a yard to raise chickens and ducks Grow vegetables. Even if you don’t sell them for money, you can eat them yourself. So old man, I still like the farmyard your father built in Yanjing. I also want to build a village with our Northeast characteristics. You said that if those people from other provinces come to travel What, it's not for the mountains, rivers, waters, and local customs."

But there are still many people in the village who think the big villa is quite good.Even if there is no condition to open a swimming pool in the yard, the big guys still want to live in a two-story bungalow villa after they have money. sick?

Especially in the Northeast, it is necessary to burn fires and coals for heating in winter. If a villa is built or a small western-style building is built, won’t it be able to provide heating?As long as there is heating, among other things, at least the two generations of the family will not have to suffer in winter.

The third uncle felt that these people were right.

After all, the family is rich, and who doesn't want to have a high-end standard of clothing, food, housing and transportation.Especially under conditions.

The words of the third uncle immediately aroused the response of the elders and villagers. They spoke one after another. You said what you said and I disagreed with each other. They always felt that their own ideas were better.If it wasn't for the third uncle who insisted on making the new village renovation plan of Lujia Village according to a style for tourism, everyone would probably have to do it themselves.

At that time, once you enter the village, every house will be colorful and look the same, it will look good.

Brother Lu Chi listened to the discussion of the villagers and blinked his eyes.

Lu Heng remembered a report he had read in his previous life, which was also about demolition and renovation of houses.The designer wants to build an antique-style new house according to the local folk customs, but the local villagers are more inclined to European-style houses. The final result is that after serious discussions, the designer persuaded the local villagers that the newly built resettlement area Yise Wuwa with white walls The ancient houses in the south of the Yangtze River look elegant and simple, and they also attract many foreign tourists to visit.

So the most important point is that the designer can give the best of both worlds.Anyway, the villagers in Lujia Village care more about heating and convenience, and the living habits of most elderly people are difficult to change, and the young people are not too opposed to building distinctive houses for economic benefits.

"It would be great if we could invite a reliable designer to help us design the farmhouse, and see how we can make the water, electricity and heating more suitable for living while retaining the characteristics of our Lujia Village."

When Lu Heng said this, he turned his head and glanced at Wei Linxuan. At the beginning, Lu's father's farmhouse was designed and built with the help of the real estate company under Wei's Group.Because of Wei Linxuan's face, Wei's real estate company was very careful during the construction of the project.The scenery is pleasant and beautiful. Not only the main building of the farmhouse has strong local characteristics, but also it is particularly suitable for living, especially some guest rooms use kang instead of beds. In winter, when the electricity is turned on, the whole room is warm and sleep One night can almost play a healing effect.

Speaking of which, many returning guests in the resort will choose to stay in the kang hut of the guest room in winter, just to cure their rheumatism, old and cold legs.Even Lu Heng and Wei Linxuan like to order a room to lie down on the hot kang in winter, and bake themselves like pancakes all night.

However, the young man is young and strong, and he occasionally gets nosebleeds from sleeping too much.

Hearing Lu Heng's words, the third uncle slapped his thigh, and immediately said: "That's what I meant. It's just that we can't find such a powerful decoration company and construction company in a small place like Lujia Village."

You can't just move the blueprint of Papa Lu's resort back to Lu's Village intact, can you?To be honest, that doesn't meet the requirements of Lujia Village's suitability for living.After all, no matter how comfortable the living conditions of Lu’s father’s farmhouse are, the main purpose is to receive guests, and many details are still not enough for daily life.If the third uncle really followed the design, I'm afraid the villagers will have more opinions after a long time.

Brother Lu Chi who was sitting on the side suddenly said, "I remember that the real estate company under the Wei Group should be under Uncle Wei's name now, right?"

Wei Zhanjie, who was idly listening to gossip, was slightly taken aback, wondering why Lu Chi would ask about this matter so well.

Wei Zhanjie was a person who was idle and idle when he was young. He took over the entertainment company Huaxia Emperor Entertainment after he got married. Since then, he has been safely guarding his one-acre three-point land, living a happy life with his wife and children. of a stable life.

He actually doesn't have any big ambitions, otherwise he wouldn't have been there for so many years. Knowing that he also has the right to inherit and even many people in the group are optimistic about him, he still takes care of his own entertainment company indifferently and never oversteps the threshold. step.If Dafang's family hadn't done too badly, he wouldn't be so angry that he would split up directly.

Even after half of the property of the Wei Group was divided, Wei Zhanjie did not show too much ambition, but only devoted himself to helping his son hold this half of the property. Apart from the direct line company, they are not very concerned about the additional real estate electronics factory and other industries.At best, he just put his confidants in the financial departments of several companies, and then attended the monthly general meeting of shareholders and the annual quarterly company summary meeting, and the rest of the specific management work was still handed over to the company's management.

These people were still worried that after Wei Zhanjie's new official took office, three fires would be set ablaze to set them off.As a result, after several months of conscientious work, I immediately found that the new boss's style of doing things was very different from the previous boss——

When Wei Renjie was managing the company before, he was afraid that someone would take away his power, so he was used to meddling in every detail of everything.But Wei Renjie's own talent is very ordinary. To put it bluntly, it is more than conservative but not enough to develop.Coupled with the sluggish real estate industry in mainland China in the past few years, Wei Renjie's management style made the entire group in an embarrassment of being slow to respond.Although it can be guaranteed that the group will not be put in a dangerous position because of some radical and risky big projects, it has also lost many valuable opportunities.

After all, risk is often directly proportional to benefit.

After Wei Zhanjie took over the company, he got used to being a hand-off shopkeeper. The idea of ​​running the company is to let professional people do professional things. He only needs the most professional people to be responsible to him, and the rest of the specific things Let a few managers decide for themselves, and only contact him when they are uncertain or need help.

Wei Zhanjie did this out of habit.But he didn't expect that it was his act of delegating power that gave the company's excellent managers a place to use, and promoted the subjective initiative of the company's managers to the greatest extent, especially when a project planned by a certain manager gave them a chance. After the company made a lot of money, Wei Zhanjie directly kicked out a certain department manager who was inclined to Wei Renjie and always hindered the company from the company, and then directly promoted this manager to be a department manager. This kind of preferential treatment of salary increase and promotion immediately stimulated the eyes of others.

Under the fetters of absolute interests, the originally complex and slow behemoth finally began to regenerate vitality from the inside, and exuded shocking power.

However, no matter how outsiders comment on Wei Zhanjie, it cannot conceal the fact that President Wei Da actually likes to be a shopkeeper.

So under the bewilderment of Wei's father, Brother Lu Chi said: "I think the new village renovation plan of Lujia Village can hire designers from your company to help design. To solve related problems such as water, electricity, heating, etc., as for the specific methods of developing tourism and maintaining daily life... I think we can learn from the development and maintenance of many ancient castles abroad."

Although Wei's father is a dandy, he is also a dandy with a keen sense of business.Hearing Brother Lu Chi's words, Dad Wei's eyes flashed, and he suddenly realized something.
