Lin Chuxia didn’t say much, she directly approved the document Wang Tianyu submitted, and handed it over for him to handle.
And Wang Tianyu really didn’t disappoint her. In just over a month, the incubation base for the Daqing Mountain Village chicken farm was completed.
In the blink of an eye, it’s almost the Spring Festival again.
This year’s Spring Festival is different from previous years. Not only do we have Little Qi Qi, but Zhuang Jingshu and Zhuang Yang are also spending the holiday with Lin Chuxia and others.
Old Sir He didn’t come back during the Spring Festival; he called Lin Chuxia early on, telling him he would return after spring next year.
Lin Chuxia is very willing for Old Sir He to have his own circle, his own life.
On the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, Qin Yang’s workplace officially went on holiday. The couple brought Little Qi Qi, along with Zhuang Jingshu, Zhuang Yang, and Jia Liang, Qin Juan’s family, and returned to Ancheng County with lively enthusiasm.
The house in An City, which Lin Chuxia gifted them as a wedding present, was tidied up by Jia Liang before the holiday. After returning to An City, Jia Liang and his group went straight to the Jia Family’s courtyard, while Lin Chuxia and others went directly to Qin Family Village.
As soon as they entered the village, they saw from afar the two-story building located in the middle of the village, right at the Qin Family’s spot.
“Brother really meant what he said, he actually built the first small Western-style house in Qin Family Village.”
Lin Chuxia said as she pointed out the location to Zhuang Jingshu.
In the past two years, with Xiyang Food Factory and the vegetable greenhouses in Qin Family Village, the villagers have made money, and there are quite a few refurbished houses, but there are really only a few families who can build small buildings.
Being able to build is one thing, actually implementing the plan is yet another.
Qin Han is a man of action.
Zhuang Jingshu already knew about the Qin Family’s situation.
The Qin Family are honest farmers, and Brother Qin and his wife have interacted with her a few times, getting along well with their daughter and son-in-law.
She knows her daughter’s abilities. Not just the Qin Family, but the entire Qin Family Village has developed thanks to her daughter.
But people are indeed different.
Some people might envy you for your achievements, some might think they’re entitled to them, and yet others, because of your goodwill, feel grateful to you.
Zhuang Jingshu knows the Qin Family are the last kind.
Qin Yang’s lips carried a faint smile too, knowing better than anyone his brother’s temperament.
Appearing steady and honest, but actually has a child-like simplicity and straightforwardness.
Now with money in hand, he loves to show off.
Qin Yang could already imagine his brother’s proud look upon seeing him soon.
Sure enough, when Qin Han saw them come back, his mouth almost reached his ears.
While welcoming them out of the car, he began introducing the two-story house behind him.
“The area our family got isn’t small; we could have built five rooms originally. But I listened to my sister-in-law’s advice, did four rooms upstairs and downstairs. Well, you can’t call it four rooms, from the outside it seems like four, but inside there’s plenty to discover. You’ll know once you’re inside, it was actually my sister-in-law who designed it. I hired several batches of workers to understand the blueprint. Initially, I worried the outcome wouldn’t match the drawings. After tidying up and taking a look, I’m glad my sister-in-law helped design it. Those who’ve seen more of the world think differently than we do. My imagined two-story building was just stacking two rows together. Now it’s great, inside the house, there’s a place to eat, sleep, and even shower and relieve oneself—all without leaving the house…
Once he started talking about the house, Qin Han wouldn’t stop.
Mrs. Qin pulled at him when he started speaking indelicately, “Stop talking nonsense, go brew some tea, guests are here, all they hear is you.”
It’s not right for the elder brother to talk about urination in front of the sister-in-law and especially in front of the mother-in-law.
Zhuang Jingshu didn’t mind though; after experiencing so much in the business world, she rather liked Qin Han’s personality.
The building was already decorated and moved into, so the group went straight into the living room.
Zhuang Jingshu glanced around, indeed, the design was quite good.
Unlike those uniform apartment buildings in China, it resembled the design of villas abroad.
When Qin Han mentioned earlier, it was Chuxia who helped with the design.
She suddenly had an idea.
…………
Meanwhile, Jia Liang brought Old Mrs. Jia and Qin Juan mother and daughter to their courtyard as well.
Returning to the familiar courtyard after almost two years, Old Mrs. Jia’s eyes brimmed with tears.
Ningning saw Grandma crying and quickly reached out her little hand to wipe her tears, “Grandma, what’s wrong? Is the wind blowing into your eyes?”
She didn’t know the story behind the courtyard; she only knew that this was their home in An City.
Old Mrs. Jia nodded with a smile, wiped her eyes with her sleeve, “Yes, yes, Grandma’s eyes got some sand, Ningning, we’re home now, Grandma will take you inside to have a look.”
She walked a few steps quickly forward and suddenly remembered something, turning to Qin Juan, “Juanzi, come quickly too. Now, this is really your dowry. Let’s take a good look together.”
Qin Juan shook her head helplessly, first responding to Old Mrs. Jia, then turned to Jia Liang, “Mom always keeps this on her mind.”
She didn’t care about the dowry matter; this was the Jia Family’s old residence, and now she’s married to Jia Liang, the family living here, making no distinction.
But Jia Liang said earnestly, “Mom’s right, this is your dowry. We coming back this courtyard is because of you. You shouldn’t be polite here.”
Qin Juan chuckled, “Alright, I won’t be polite. I won’t be polite anywhere.”
Jia Liang also laughed along, “That’s the way, that’s the temper my wife should have. It’s cold outside, let’s go inside. I’ll go light the boiler.”
The courtyard has four rooms originally, and Jia Liang tidied it up before, replacing all the furniture except in the old lady’s room.
It’s not like he didn’t change for his mother; Old Mrs. Jia specifically asked for it.
If the furniture at home is still there, her room must be the same as it was.
Even all the furniture from Jia Liang’s room she couldn’t bear to throw away, insisting on moving it to her room instead.
People grow old, they tend to be nostalgic.
Especially in the year they rented in Yan City, Old Mrs. Jia often longed for her small shabby courtyard.
In addition to a living room, the four rooms were made into bedrooms.
Old Mrs. Jia still stayed in her original room, Jia Liang and Qin Juan stayed in the room Jia Liang had before, and Ningning, having grown up, got her own room cleaned up by Jia Liang.
Little Ningning had already seen her room and came out running excitedly, pulling Qin Juan towards her room, “Mom, come quickly and see, Daddy Jia bought me pink sheets, a pink quilt, and pink curtains, I love them.”
Jia Liang was adding wood to the boiler, hearing Ningning’s voice, he turned around to see his wife and daughter, smiling broadly showing his big white teeth.
Qin Juan gave him a sideways glance with a smile.
This man, no wonder he kept asking Ningning’s preferences during that time, it turns out he was arranging her room.
Feeling a gratitude beyond words.
