Chapter 554: A Home with a Different World (Second Update)

Yue Qingsong and his family sat for a while, and when they saw little Feng Ruoruo start to yawn, they stood up and said goodbye.

Before leaving, Yue Qihao did not forget to make an appointment with his sister that he would come over tomorrow morning to take his sister to the vegetable garden to play.

When Feng Ruoruo heard that they could go to the vegetable garden to play tomorrow, she instantly woke up from her sleepiness.

"Okay, okay, Brother Haohao, you must come tomorrow."

Sure enough, children are relatively easy to get along with. Feng Ruoruo is no longer averse to making new friends and is very happy to play with her brother.

Yue Qingsong patted his son on the shoulder and said, "You promised your sister that you can't sleep in at home tomorrow."

When Yue Qihao was exposed by his father, he immediately said righteously: "I, I won't sleep in."

Yue Qingsong did not let his son go: "You haven't? You probably forgot. You slept until noon during the holidays. Don't think you didn't know because I wasn't at home."

Yue Qihao was not afraid either, and he confronted his father directly: "That's because I don't have to go to school in the morning, and I have nothing to do in the morning. I promised to take my sister to the vegetable garden tomorrow, and I will definitely get up early and come over to take my sister there."

Yue Qingsong nodded in satisfaction when he heard his son's assurance: "Well, very good, now you are like a real man."

Feng Yifan smiled and said, "As a father, it's wrong for you to force your son like this. It's a holiday for the child, so it's good for him to get more sleep. He works so hard at school."

Yue Qingsong smiled and said, "You can't sleep until noon every day. Going to bed early and getting up early is good for your health."

Su Ruoxi also said: "It doesn't matter, our Ruoruo will also sleep in tomorrow, you two can make an appointment and come back after ten o'clock to go to the vegetable garden together."

Hearing her mother say this, Feng Ruoruo immediately said, "Mom, Dad and I usually get up very early. I also go shopping for groceries with Dad before dawn."

Qi Yan was a little surprised when she heard the little girl say that: "You got up so early?"

Yue Qingsong said to his wife, "What do you think? Being a cook is not easy. You need to get up early to buy vegetables and make all kinds of preparations in advance. Otherwise, how can you cook such delicious dishes?"

Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Okay, stop bragging to me. You guys have already praised me too much tonight. These are what a normal cook should do. I am just a little more meticulous than the average cook. Qingsong, you are exaggerating a bit."

Yue Qingsong laughed: "Master Feng is really modest. You are still an ordinary cook. Do you want to let ordinary cooks do the job?"

Once I start talking, I can't seem to stop.

Fortunately, at this time, little Feng Ruoruo yawned again.

When grandma saw this, she couldn't help but say, "Okay, okay, Yifan is back. If you two brothers want to chat, you can continue tomorrow. If not, find a time to chat for a whole day and night. Just stop here tonight. Look how sleepy my little baby is."

Yue Qingsong's mother also said: "Yes, Xiao Baobai is so sleepy that he can hardly open his eyes. Let's go back quickly."

Just like that, Yue Qingsong and his family said goodbye and left.

After her childhood friend and her family left, Lu Cuiling picked up her sleepy granddaughter and said, "Okay, my little Ruoruo, I'll take you to take a shower. Then you can sleep with me tonight, okay?"

Feng Ruoruo also hugged her grandmother's neck, rested her little head on her grandmother's shoulder and said, "Yeah, okay."

Lu Cuiling carried her granddaughter to the back of the house, and Su Ruoxi naturally followed.

When they reached the side door to the backyard, Lu Cuiling turned around and said to her son, "Yifan, you and your father-in-law will stay in the two rooms on the east side tonight. You can help your father-in-law go to bed first. The bedding is all new. If you want to wash up, there is a place in the house to wash up and you can take a shower."

Feng Yifan responded, "Okay, Mom."

Then Feng Yifan walked over and pushed his father-in-law, preparing to go to the east room that his mother mentioned.

There are still a few rooms in front and behind this small courtyard of their home. In the past few years, the old couple has carried out some reconstruction, retaining the front and back courtyards, and also made some renovations to the house.

The main hall at the entrance was retained, while the rooms on the east and west sides were renovated in a more modern style.

The two rooms on the east side are connected, and each room is also equipped with an independent bathroom.

It is obvious that the mother designed this because she thought that her son, daughter-in-law, and even father-in-law might come back to live with her in the future.

As for the west side, it is a relatively large room where Feng Yifan's parents live, which can be considered as the master bedroom.

Of course, the room is also a suite, and there is also a dedicated study and a room originally designed for children.

All these designs reflect the mother's care and preparation for her son and his family's return.

Now that Feng Yifan has really returned, when he sees how his mother renovated the old house, he naturally understands her intentions.

He pushed his father-in-law into the room on the east side near the main hall.

Looking at the layout of the room, Su Jinrong couldn't help but say, "Yifan, your mother is really thoughtful. Did you see it? The design and layout here actually refer to some old-fashioned house layouts, but it also has the feel of a modern hotel."

When Feng Yifan stepped into the room, he was also stunned by everything inside.

He also didn't expect that his mother would have such a meticulous design. The interior decoration of the room was really exquisite.

Just as my father-in-law said, the whole room looks like a very quaint old-fashioned country house.

But if you look closely, you will find that the room is very fully furnished.

For example, there will be modern appliances, lamps placed in several places in the room, a desk, and a separate bathroom in this room.

I have to admit that this arrangement is very similar to the layout of a hotel room, but the decoration is very rustic.

Feng Yifan originally wanted to push his father-in-law to the bedside, but was rejected by his father-in-law.

"Push me to the bathroom. I want to wash myself tonight."

Hearing his father-in-law's words, Feng Yifan was still a little worried: "Dad, your health is not good, let me come, I will help you wash."

Su Jinrong was very stubborn: "I'll do it myself. I need this kind of training."

In the end, Feng Yifan couldn't persuade his father-in-law, so he had to push his father-in-law to the bathroom.

When I opened the door, I saw that it was fully equipped with various facilities and looked quite spacious. There was even a bathtub inside, as well as a washbasin, toilet and other facilities.

Seeing this scene, Feng Yifan was stunned again.

Su Jinrong smiled and said, "Yifan, do you think the countryside is better now? The place is big and you can build and decorate the house however you want."

Feng Yifan responded, "Dad, you are right."

Su Jinrong then stood up from the wheelchair at the door and walked into the bathroom step by step, holding on to the wall.

Feng Yifan was a little worried when he saw this and said, "Dad, please be careful."

Su Jinrong was extremely excited: "It's okay, I can do it."

With the help of something, Su Jinrong was still able to walk smoothly. He soon reached the sink, turned on the faucet, and began to slowly wash his face with his hands.

While washing his face, Su Jinrong was a little surprised again: "There is actually hot water."

Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Of course there are. My parents' house has a solar panel on the roof, and I also saw an electric water heater in the kitchen."

Su Jinrong was a little surprised when he heard this: "Huh? With all these things, why does your mother still need to burn the earthen stove?"

Feng Yifan felt a little surprised when his father-in-law said this.

The house is fully equipped with modern appliances, and my mother could easily ask someone to get us a gas stove, or even just use an induction cooker. Why does she still have to use that kind of clay stove

While Feng Yifan was still confused, his father-in-law had figured it out first.

"I see. Cooking on a clay stove should be more fragrant."

After hearing what his father-in-law said, Feng Yifan thought about it carefully and it seemed that cooking on an earthen stove was indeed very fragrant.

And perhaps the more crucial reason is that there is no gas in the village, so cooking with an induction cooker does seem to consume a lot of electricity.

On the contrary, it is simpler to use firewood to burn an earthen stove.

Because the village is backed by a mountain, there is no shortage of firewood, of course, there are also some dead branches and leaves left in the vegetable garden after the vegetables and fruits are ripe.

Those recycled materials can also be used as fuel for earthen stoves, so it is indeed more convenient to use earthen stoves.

While Feng Yifan was thinking about this question, his father-in-law had already finished washing up.

He hurried forward and prepared to help his father-in-law back to the wheelchair.

But after Su Jinrong came out, he pushed the wheelchair away and pushed Feng Yifan away as well. He stood there very seriously and walked towards the bed step by step.

After some effort, Su Jinrong really walked to the bed step by step.

Su Jinrong sat on the bed and said to his son-in-law with a smile: "How is it? Is your father-in-law recovering well now?"

Feng Yifan gave a thumbs up and said, "Dad, you've recovered really well."

Su Jinrong slowly lay down on the bed and continued to say to his son-in-law with a smile: "Okay, your dad will lie down, you should also go and take a shower and rest quickly."

Feng Yifan searched the room and found the air conditioner remote control.

But before he could turn it on, he was stopped by his father-in-law: "You don't need to turn on the air conditioner. This old house is cooler. I'm not hot at all lying here. Go ahead."

Feng Yifan put down the remote control and said, "Okay, Dad, you have a good rest."

After saying that, he turned and left the room, closing the door from the outside.

After walking out, Feng Yifan saw that his father had closed the door, placed Feng Ruoruo duckling under the persimmon tree, and did not forget to put some water in the duckling's plate.

Feng Yifan walked up to his father and said softly, "Dad, you and my mom have worked hard over the years."

Feng Jiandong turned his head to look at his son beside him and said with a smile: "Why are you working so hard? Your mother and I have to find something to do. If we are going to do it, we must do our best to do it."

Feng Yifan nodded and said, "Well, I admire you and my mother."

Feng Jiandong said: "If your mother and I are not as successful as you, then we are failures as parents."

Feng Yifan didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this: "I never thought that you and my mother would make the vegetable garden so big, and even bring the whole village to work together. Now the vegetables in Yanghu Township are very famous, and many people in Huaicheng know about it."

Feng Jiandong continued, "You are the one who forced me to do this."

Feng Yifan was a little surprised: "Me? Was I forced to do that?"

Feng Jiandong nodded: "That's right, you ran away by yourself and didn't come back. Your mother and I couldn't find you at the time, and we thought it was not a good thing to worry about you all day, so we found something else to divert our attention. Later, we simply focused on growing vegetables, and we didn't expect that we would really do it."

Although his father sounded nonchalant when he spoke, Feng Yifan could still imagine how difficult it must have been for his parents in the beginning.

But now, we are really doing it, and all the difficulties have turned sweet.

Feng Jiandong patted his son on the shoulder and said, "My son, don't think that your mother and I can only revolve around you. We also have our own pursuits. Now that we have started our own business, you must work hard, otherwise you will have to come back to inherit this family business."

After hearing this from his father, Feng Yifan was stunned at first, and then he couldn't help laughing.

If you don't work hard, you will have to come back and inherit the family business.

These words really left Feng Yifan speechless.

However, he could also hear his parents' expectations from his father's words. His parents still hoped that he could build his own career and become a top chef that everyone would remember.

After Feng Yifan finished laughing, he said to his father seriously, "Dad, don't worry, your son won't be like that."

Feng Jiandong smiled with satisfaction and said, "Good, this is more like my son, he has ambition."

As the father and son were talking, accompanied by a sound like a silver bell, Lu Cuiling and Su Ruoxi came back from the backyard holding Feng Ruoruo.

I saw that my daughter had changed her clothes and her hair was still wet, obviously she had taken a shower.

Feng Yifan couldn't help but feel a little strange: "Mom, is there a place to take a shower in the backyard?"

Lu Cuiling smiled and said, "Of course, your father and I have set up a hot spring in the backyard. You and your father can take your father-in-law to take a dip tomorrow."

Feng Yifan was a little surprised when he heard this: "What? You even built a hot spring in your backyard?"

Seeing her husband's surprised look, Su Ruoxi smiled and said, "It's not a natural one, it's actually a big bathing pool. Mom injects water from the sun into it."

Feng Ruoruo also came to her senses at this time, and said to her father excitedly: "Dad, that is so warm, it feels so comfortable to take a shower, you can go and take a shower."

Hearing his daughter's words, Feng Yifan responded with a smile: "Okay, dad and grandpa will go take a bath together tomorrow."

Feng Jiandong said, "You can use it in the summer, but not in the winter. There is not enough sunshine and hot water in the winter."

Feng Yifan immediately said happily: "Then it's finally time for us to come back. We can enjoy ourselves."

Lu Cuiling hugged her granddaughter and said, "Okay, you two should go to bed too. It's getting late. Our little baby is so sleepy. She almost fell asleep during the bath. Let's go to bed."

Feng Ruoruo hugged her grandmother's neck and waved to her parents: "Good night, Mom and Dad."

At the last moment, the little girl did not forget to blow a kiss to her father and mother.

Watching his parents taking their granddaughter back to their room, Feng Yifan reached out and picked up his wife, then walked towards their room.

Su Ruoxi was startled at first, but then she hugged her husband's neck sweetly.
