Chapter 589: Restaurant renovation progress (first update)

Views:

Feng Ruoruo’s nap time is very fixed, basically after lunch, and she usually wakes up about an hour later.

After returning to her grandparents' house, the little girl still kept this habit and took a nap for an hour after lunch.

Feng Ruoruo did not get up immediately after waking up, but lay on the bed and listened to the sounds outside.

After hearing the noise outside and the voices of her father, mother, grandfather, grandmother and grandfather, she quickly got up from the bed and put on her own clothes.

Feng Ruoruo quickly got out of bed and put on her shoes in a hurry. She didn't even notice that one of her feet was not wearing a sock.

He rushed out of the room quickly, followed the direction of the voices of the adults at home, and rushed into the main hall of his grandparents' house.

"Ruoruo, wake up."

Rushing into the main room, Feng Ruoruo shouted to the people inside.

Then she noticed that everyone in the main room seemed to be watching something on their mobile phone video.

Feng Ruoruo moved closer curiously and heard someone talking to her mother through video on her phone, and the person knew Feng Ruoruo.

"Is Ruoruo awake yet? I can hear her voice."

When Feng Ruoruo heard the voice from the video, she quickly pulled her mom and dad’s hands and shouted, “Mom and Dad, hurry up, let Ruoruo see it. Ruoruo heard someone calling Ruoruo.”

Su Ruoxi quickly lowered her phone so that Feng Ruoruo could video chat with the person on the other end of the phone.

Then, through the mobile phone video, the little girl saw the person talking over there.

"Oh, it's Uncle Xiaolin and Sister Shen. Hello, Sister Shen, hello, Uncle Xiaolin."

Shen Qingluo on the other side of the video smiled and waved: "Hello Ruoruo, Ruoruo has your nap come out? Is Ruoruo happy at grandpa and grandma's house?"

When Feng Ruoruo heard Sister Shen's question, she immediately started talking.

"Sister Shen, I am very happy at my grandparents' house. Every morning I go to pick vegetables with my grandparents, and then when we come back, I ask my dad to make delicious food for us. Sister Shen, let me tell you, the vegetable garden at my grandparents' house is so big..."

Feng Ruoruo is still that little chatterbox, and once she starts talking, she can't stop.

Shen Qingluo on the other side of the video was also very happy and listened carefully to what Feng Ruoruo said.

Listening to the little girl's story, Shen Qingluo felt that life in the countryside was quite interesting. As a child who grew up abroad, she had never experienced rural life in China.

Shen Qingluo knew that the rural areas in China were not like the farms or manors in foreign countries. They should be the kind where each household cultivates their own land.

But according to Feng Ruoruo, it seems that the vegetable gardens of her grandma and grandpa should be planned in a unified manner.

This made Shen Qingluo very curious, and he wanted to go to Feng Ruoruo's grandparents' house to take a look.

Of course, she was just thinking about it, because her shop on the old street was also under renovation and she couldn't do without people. Lin Ruifeng was also very busy setting up the stall every day, and the other two had to help take care of Su Ji's shop and help take pictures of the renovation of the shop.

So Shen Qingluo wanted to go, but he didn't have the chance. Maybe if he wanted to go, he had to wait until Feng Yifan and the others went back, and then everyone could make an appointment to come over later.

Before Feng Ruoruo came, the adults could talk to their phones, but now when she starts talking, no one can get a word in.

Seeing her daughter talking endlessly, Su Ruoxi couldn't help but say, "Ruoruo, can you let mommy and daddy finish what they are saying with Sister Shen and Uncle Xiaolin?"

When Feng Ruoruo heard what her mother said, she raised her little head and looked at her mother in surprise.

"Mom, do you have anything else to say?"

Su Ruoxi nodded: "Yes, Mom and Dad video chatted with Uncle Xiaolin and the others to see the progress of the renovation of Grandpa's restaurant. Look, as soon as you came, you pushed us aside. Mom and Dad haven't even had a good look at the progress of the restaurant's renovation. Isn't that inappropriate?"

After being told by her mother, Feng Ruoruo suddenly felt a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry, then mom, you talk to dad."

Seeing her daughter voluntarily give up the space, Su Ruoxi smiled and touched her daughter's head: "Ruoruo is so good. Mommy and Daddy both thank Ruoruo."

Feng Yifan took his daughter into his arms and said, "Well, Daddy thanks Ruoruo too."

Then the father whispered to his daughter, "After we finish the video call with Uncle Xiaolin and the others, Dad will take you and Brother Haohao to catch butterflies, okay?"

Hearing her father say this, Feng Ruoruo was immediately surprised, but she quickly concealed her joy.

The little girl put her finger in front of her mouth and whispered carefully, "Dad, let's be quiet."

Feng Ruoruo didn't know that her cautious look had been seen by everyone. Grandpa, grandma and grandpa couldn't help laughing, but no one would point it out.

On the other side of the video, Lin Ruifeng held up his mobile phone and took a photo of the restaurant under construction for his master and his wife to see.

Su Ruoxi took a careful look and felt quite satisfied. The restaurant's decoration was basically in line with the previous design.

And you can see that the original kitchen wall has been knocked down. This is also a point that was determined in the previous design, that is, Feng Yifan decided to make an open kitchen so that diners in the lobby below can directly face his cooking.

This is considered an original idea in China, and abroad only a few restaurants that are very confident in their cooking skills will choose to do this.

Of course, only part of the cooking area is shown, and some preparation areas will not be shown.

The design of Su Ji is different from that of some foreign restaurants in that the overall design style of Su Ji is ancient Chinese, so the dining table facing diners is designed as an old-fashioned counter, but the countertop is wider and has a liftable light on it.

Part of this dining table is for diners to sit down and eat, while the larger part is used to display the dishes before they are served.

The overall style of the restaurant perfectly presents Su Ruoxi's original design.

The antique decoration looks like a traditional old street shop.

Lin Ruifeng held up the camera on his mobile phone and led everyone upstairs to take a look.

The rooms upstairs have now been demolished, and the interior walls and floors are being completely redone. Even the window sills are being covered with solid wood.

Although the rooms have not been isolated one by one, just looking at the overall effect, we can already get a glimpse of the clues.

Looking at the scenes captured in the video, Su Ruoxi was quite satisfied, and the family members nearby also thought it was good.

Feng Jiandong said seriously: "It seems that the decoration team you found this time is quite reliable."

Su Ruoxi said immediately, "Yes, Feifei's grandparents helped introduce it to us. It's a well-known decoration company in China, and all the decoration materials they use are healthy materials, so after we return, we should be able to pack up and reopen quickly."

Shen Qingluo heard it on the video and immediately stuck her head out and said, "Aunt, don't be too happy too soon. The reconstruction of the ancient street here is not yet completed. It seems that there is a problem with the pipeline, so it may be necessary to re-lay the pipeline, and the construction period may be delayed for a while."

Lin Ruifeng also quickly explained the reconstruction of the ancient street to the video.

To be precise, the renovation contractor did not check the pipelines properly, so deviations occurred during construction.

So now the ancient street is mainly undergoing the re-laying of pipes, and it is almost impossible to enter or exit the ancient street. Lin Ruifeng had no choice but to lock the stove and cart in the small market.

"Master, Master's Wife, I locked the cart and the stove over there, and asked someone to help weld a small door to prevent people from entering and leaving our stall at night. Don't worry, our stall is still doing well. I didn't cut corners."

After hearing his apprentice's words, Feng Yifan came to his wife and said to the apprentice on the other side of the video: "Okay, you did a good job, but don't forget to keep up the knife skills you learned."

Lin Ruifeng nodded seriously: "I know Master, I have never stopped practicing knife skills."

Shen Qingluo beside him immediately said, "Yes, I can prove that Xiaolin practices knife skills every night when he comes back."

Su Ruoxi couldn't help but laugh and asked, "Xiao Lin practices knife skills every night, Qing Luo, how did you know about this?"

Shen Qingluo immediately realized that she seemed to have exposed something.

"Oh, Auntie, please don't say that."

Feng Ruoruo was beside her mother, stretching her head to watch. Seeing Sister Shen's shy look on the video, she asked curiously, "Sister Shen, why are you blushing?"

Hearing the little girl's question, Shen Qingluo felt even more embarrassed.

"Oh, I, I don't want to chat with you anymore. Here's your phone. You can continue chatting with your aunt and uncle."

Feng Ruoruo saw Sister Shen running away and became even more curious: "Why did Sister Shen leave?"

Su Ruoxi hugged her daughter and said, "Okay, Sister Shen and Uncle Xiaolin are still a little shy, so don't ask. Let's continue to let Uncle Xiaolin take us to see Grandpa's restaurant."

Feng Ruoruo could only agree: "Okay, keep watching, keep watching."

Continuing to look, the decoration of the restaurant is indeed very good, and all aspects have taken shape. It can be seen that the decoration company is still very attentive, and basically completely restores the previous design. The effect in many places may be better than the previous design drawings.

Of course, some details are not so good, but it does not affect the overall decoration.

So Su Ruoxi didn't nitpick, and in the end she was quite satisfied with the overall look.

Seeing that his wife was very satisfied, Feng Yifan nodded and said, "Well, as long as my dear wife is satisfied, our design was not in vain."

Su Ruoxi looked at her husband and said, "What are you talking about? Didn't we agree that this restaurant would use our design? And you agreed to all the designs before. Don't say yes now, or you'll feel bad after the decoration is finished."

After hearing what his wife said, Feng Yifan was a little amused. He didn't expect his wife to be so sensitive.

But Feng Ruoruo said at this time: "Mom, Dad will definitely like it, because Dad definitely likes you."

Su Ruoxi was immediately amused by her daughter's words.

She reached out and pinched her daughter's face: "Little thing, you are becoming more and more reasonable now. Well, you are right. Mom can't argue with you, okay?"

Then Feng Ruoruo shouted that she wanted to chat with Sister Shen, so Lin Ruifeng called Shen Qingluo back and let Shen Qingluo and Feng Ruoruo chat for a while on the video.

This time, Feng Ruoruo didn't want to talk for long. She was obviously thinking about asking her father to take her to catch butterflies.

So after chatting with Sister Shen for a while, she waved goodbye to her obediently.

After hanging up the video chat, Feng Ruoruo immediately said to her father: "Dad, Dad, let's go quickly. You promised Ruoruo that you would take Ruoruo to catch butterflies."

Su Ruoxi was stunned when she heard her daughter's words, and then she laughed: "Okay, I was wondering why you finished talking to Sister Shen so quickly? It turns out that you were thinking about going out with Dad to catch butterflies. You little thing, you really don't want to think about anything else until you have something to play."

Feng Ruoruo ran to her mother with a smile, hugged her and said, "Mom, let's go together."

Su Ruoxi pouted: "You go with dad, I won't go."

Feng Ruoruo naturally couldn't let her mother go, so she hugged her mother and shook her vigorously: "No, Mom, let's go together, let's go together."

After her daughter's constant nagging, Su Ruoxi finally had no choice but to nod and agree.

"Okay, okay, let's go together."

Seeing that her son was going to go out with his daughter-in-law and grandson to play, Lu Cuiling asked curiously, "Why? Aren't you going to research new dishes today?"

Feng Yifan smiled and said, "Let's take a break today. We can't just study cooking every day."

Feng Jiandong nodded and said, "Yes, it's good to take a proper rest."

Su Jinrong pretended to be relaxed and said, "Oh, I can finally take a break. I've been exhausted these days. It just so happens that you guys go out to play, and I can rest at home."

When Feng Ruoruo heard what her grandfather said, she immediately asked, "Grandpa, aren't you going with us?"

Su Jinrong smiled and responded to his granddaughter: "Grandpa is not going today. Grandpa needs to have a good rest for a day. Can you go with mom and dad?"

Feng Ruoruo wanted to say something, but was stopped by her mother.

"Let's let grandpa have a good rest today. Ruoruo will go out to play with mom and dad. Let's go and call brother Haohao, okay?"

Feng Ruoruo listened to her mother, looked at her grandfather again, and finally the little girl nodded.

"Okay, Grandpa, have a good rest."

Su Jinrong smiled and nodded: "Okay, Grandpa, have a good rest at home, Ruoruo, Dad, Mom, and Brother Haohao, have fun."

Feng Ruoruo pouted and said, "Dad will take Ruoruo with him today. He must help Ruoruo catch a beautiful butterfly."

Feng Yifan naturally nodded and agreed to his daughter: "Okay, Dad will definitely help Ruoruo catch a beautiful butterfly today so that Ruoruo can come back and make a very beautiful butterfly specimen herself."

Feng Ruoruo cheered immediately after hearing this: "Great, let's go."

Then Su Ruoxi changed her daughter into a set of sportswear and changed her own clothes as well.

The family of three went out together.
