Rebirth of a Farmer's Dad

Since they were going to the county to attend an event organized by the police in three days, Luo Feng decided to have everyone pack up and return to the county town the next day.

To be honest, it's been almost half a month since I left the store. I wonder how Tiger and the others have managed it. I should go and check on it.

So, early the next morning, the group headed to the town to catch the bus to the county.

After several hours of bumpy travel, the group finally arrived at the store before lunchtime.

Since Luo Feng's return was a last-minute decision, he didn't inform Hu Zi and the others, so no one here knew that Luo Feng and the others had returned, which gave Hu Zi and the others a huge surprise.

"Brother Feng, and you guys, why didn't you call the shop when you got back? We could have come to pick you up." The first person to see them was Ade, who was greeting customers at the shop. He had taken over Zhugan's job after Zhugan left.

"This was a last-minute decision for us. We just wanted to let you know," Luo Feng said with a smile to Ah De, and then greeted several of the shop's regular customers.

"Ade, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and serve the guests." At this moment, a shout came from the kitchen. Luo Feng knew immediately that it was Hu Zi's voice.

Hearing Hu Zi's shout, Ade hurried to the kitchen to get some plates. Luo Feng followed Ade into the kitchen, preparing to make some food for everyone.

"Brother Feng, why are you back?" Shunzi, who was squatting there washing dishes, saw Luo Feng at a glance and looked up to ask.

Shunzi's words brought Luo Feng's figure to the attention of everyone busy in the kitchen. They quickly came forward to greet him, but Luo Feng waved them off, indicating that they should continue working.

Then Luo Feng walked up to Hu Zi, helping him out while asking him about the recent situation at the store.

Fortunately, everything was normal and nothing unusual happened in the store, which reassured Luo Feng a little.

Then Luo Feng grabbed some food from the kitchen, put it on a tray, and carried it all upstairs. On his way up, he greeted Biaozi and the other two, inviting them to come and eat with him.

As for Xinghua, she went upstairs early as soon as she arrived at the shop, and it was unclear what she was in such a hurry to do.

After the meal, Luo Feng sent Biaozi and the other two to help out at the shop. He planned to have Biaozi and the others squeeze in with Zhugan and his group at the wedding courtyard for the next few days.

As for Luo Feng himself, he naturally had to start preparing and memorizing his speech. After all, this was something Director Li had assigned him, and it wouldn't be good if he messed it up.

To be honest, Luo Feng hadn't memorized anything in a long time, except when he was in school. Forcing himself to memorize things now felt a bit rusty.

But Luo Feng had no choice but to bite the bullet and take the blame. If he messed this up, his business would be in serious trouble.

But for some reason, Luo Feng couldn't concentrate, and he attributed it all to Xinghua, who was making a ruckus nearby.

Luo Feng thought it was his daughter's noise that was making it hard for him to concentrate, and he was about to let his daughter play somewhere else.

But then he suddenly realized that this wasn't the village, but the county town, and the children were all on holiday. If he sent his daughter out now, she probably wouldn't be able to find any playmates.

You know, at this time of year, most children choose to go back to the countryside for summer or winter vacation. After all, there are still elderly people living there, and perhaps due to the strong bond between grandparents and grandchildren, the children always want to stay close to their grandparents.

Since it's not realistic to let my daughter go out to play, I can only find myself a quieter place.

With this in mind, Luo Feng went out to check out the wedding courtyard.

Luo Feng, hands in his pockets, strolled leisurely to the wedding courtyard. Even before entering the courtyard, a stench wafted from within.

Luo Feng deliberately looked around, seemingly searching for the source of the stench. Unfortunately, he eventually confirmed that the smell was indeed emanating from his own wedding courtyard.

"What on earth is Wang Dana up to? With this smell, who would want to come here? Isn't this our old man's brand?" As he spoke, Luo Feng entered the wedding courtyard.

"What are you guys doing?" Luo Feng asked, covering his nose as soon as he entered the room.

"Brother Feng, you're back! Go check on him! That kid Wang Dana's gone mad. He's messing around with something in the house, and it stinks!" Zhu Gan, who was standing in the yard, said to Luo Feng as soon as he came in.

After hearing his words, Luo Feng frowned and went inside.

"What are you doing? It smells so bad." Luo Feng asked Wang Dana as soon as he entered the room.

"Luo Feng, you're back! You've come at just the right time. Try this, it's good stuff, I specially asked someone to bring it from out of town." Wang Dana looked up and saw Luo Feng, and quickly said to him, while opening a paper package next to him.

"What is this?" Luo Feng asked, enduring the increasingly strong stench as he covered his nose and leaned closer.

"Haha, never seen this before, have you? This is a stinky fruit, a good thing I specially asked a friend to bring it from out of town." Wang Dana thought Luo Feng didn't know what it was, so he quickly explained it to him.

"What? Isn't this durian? No wonder it smells so strong!" Luo Feng said dismissively.

"Have you seen this thing before?" Wang Dana asked curiously, as this was the first time he had ever seen one.

"I've eaten it before. It smells awful, but it tastes pretty good. It's the same as stinky tofu," Luo Feng said to Wang Dana, a hint of reminiscence in his eyes.

"Haven't had this in a long time, why don't you try it?" Wang Dana urged Luo Feng to eat durian.

"Alright, I can't afford to sell this stuff. You should keep it for yourself and eat it slowly." Luo Feng said, turning his head to leave.

The smell in this room is so awful it makes me feel nauseous.

"Wait, quickly wrap this up. If you want to eat it, take it back with you. Don't eat it here. If the smell spreads, who would dare to come here?" Luo Feng realized this as soon as he reached the door. He couldn't let them mess around here.

"That's not right! We agreed beforehand that I'm the kind of person who can't keep a mouth to myself," Wang Dana yelled at Luo Feng, determined to protect his rights.

"I didn't say you couldn't eat. If you want to eat, take it home. Don't affect business here. Look around, is there anyone else here? This is all your doing," Luo Feng said impatiently.

"I know, you guys really don't know how to enjoy life." Looking at Luo Feng's serious expression and then at the deserted streets nearby, Wang Dana could only complain. He then reluctantly rewrapped the durian and put it in the cabinet next to him.

"Can you be more careful next time? This is our business place, after all. Is it really okay for you to make such a mess of things?" Luo Feng was still scolding Wang Dana.

"I know, I'll just stay home and eat alone next time, okay?" Wang Dana said somewhat sheepishly, scratching his head.

"Alright, tell me how things are going here lately? Is business picking up?" Seeing Wang Dana's response, Luo Feng decided not to pursue the matter further. To give Wang Dana a way out, he deliberately changed the subject.

"Business at the store is so-so, not much improvement. I think our brand awareness isn't high enough, we need to think of a solution." When it came to professional matters, Wang Dana immediately became serious.

"What are your thoughts? Tell me in detail," Luo Feng said to Wang Dana after thinking for a while.
