Chapter 613: Construction

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Everyone had different thoughts on spending their vacations or preparing for the New Year, but most preferred taking an early leave from work because it would give them more time with their families.

After all, New Year was a time for families to reunite. Most worked hard all year just to reunite with their families and celebrate the new year. Moreover, they could spare time to help their families prepare needed things.

Su Binglan slept well this time and only woke up when half of the morning pa.s.sed. The sunlight s.h.i.+ned through the window into the room, giving it a warm glow. It made her feel lazy as she lay in bed.

Since she slept so well, she felt more energetic after waking up. She had a quick breakfast and started her day by asking her family members to show her their accounts.

Su Binglan wanted to calculate the tofu factory’s profits to give everyone their bonuses. She did not worry about the workers’ salaries because those were fixed amounts.

After calculating, she would give everyone their year-end bonuses based on the factory’s most recent profits and earnings. The workers’ year-end bonus was more than usual. That way, everyone could have a good New Year when they went home to their families.

While the Su family prepared their accounts, Su Binglan wrote her script. She even wrote some lyrics to a song. She wanted to teach Yang Xiaoxun to sing at least two songs.

Su Binglan thought Yang Xiaoxun had a beautiful voice, so the former ensured the song she wrote would sound as lovely as possible. Fortunately, the two songs Su Binglan wrote were relatively simple.

She was busy writing her script when Su Xueye ran over. He was excited to see Su Binglan, greeting, “h.e.l.lo, Aunt Binglan!’

Whenever Su Xueye was with his workers, he was severe and did not smile. He always behaved like an adult and spoke calmly. Everyone said he resembled his grandfather, Su Zhengde, the most.

However, no one knew how Su Xueye looked in front of Su Binglan. He resembled a more youthful boy in front of her.

“Xueye!” Su Binglan had not seen Su Xueye for a long time. She felt he had grown taller and more mature since she last saw him. He was even a head taller than Su Binglan.

“l didn’t expect you to grow so much since I left. You’ve matured so much, but you’ve gotten tan, too.” She said he was tan, but his skin had only turned slightly darker because he spent most of his time in the sun.

Su Xueye embarra.s.sedly scratched the back of his head and chuckled. “Well, that’s because I’m always on-site with the workers when they’re building houses.’

“Although you’re a little darker, you seem much healthier because of the sun. Why’d you come looking for me, Xueye?” Su Binglan looked at the paper Su Xueye held and guessed it was an architectural drawing he had made. Su Xueye handed his blueprints to Su Binglan and said, “You said you wanted to build a place on the land between the town and our village. You also said you wanted to build a community near Blue Mountain Academy.

“l drew these according to your requirements. I don’t know if they’re up to your standards, so I came here to ask for your advice.” Su Xueye was highly interested in architecture and loved learning about it.

Su Bingfeng was surprised. She had mentioned some ideas about real estate planning on a specific piece of land. However, she had yet to implement it because she had too many things to do.

She wanted to discuss it with Su Xueye and draw the blueprints herself after the New Year. She did not expect Su Xueye to take the initiative and put in so much effort to draw the blueprints during her absence.

Su Binglan looked at Su Xueye’s blueprints, and her eyes lit up. She said,

“These are impressive. You drew these perfectly, Xueye.”

Su Xueye was thrilled to receive praise from Su Binglan. He explained, “l modified the staff dormitory building according to your specifications, too.”

Previously, Su Binglan built the staff dormitories next to the embroidery shop based on her blueprints. At that time, Su Xueye was unfamiliar with such structures and did not understand them.

He had only seen two-story structures before. The stairs to these structures were not independent, and each room had stairs leading upstairs.

However, the dormitory building Su Binglan designed had stairs on the side of the building instead of in each room. That way, people from upstairs would not intrude whenever they needed to go downstairs to leave or vice versa.

Su Binglan’s design inspired Su Xueye greatly. He constantly considered it and drew the kind of house Su Binglan had mentioned. Still, he wondered if he had done well and nervously asked Su Binglan for her feedback

He knew Su Binglan returned at noon yesterday, so he planned to look for her in the afternoon. Then he thought Su Binglan would have many things to do and would need to rest after finally returning from her long journey.

Ultimately, he decided to wait until the following morning before asking for Su Binglan’s feedback.

Finally, Su Xueye shared his blueprints with Su Binglan. “There are three

floors in this area. 1 put the stairs on the side of the building, and each floor will have two units. Also, some can have two-story houses, while others will have one-story houses with a courtyard.”

Su Binglan listened to Su Xueye while looking at his blueprints. She felt his plans were perfect.

‘It’s great that he can draw like this.’

Still, there were some flaws in Su Xueye’s designs, so Su Binglan gave him some guidance. She also shared newer architectural knowledge with him.

Su Xueye listened attentively, his expression full of excitement.

Su Binglan lightly drew on Su Xueye’ s blueprints while explaining, “How about this? You can always ask me if you have any concerns.

“You don’t have to rush in the construction. We’ll build these after the New Year’s celebrations. You should rest during this period and avoid tiring yourself out.”

Su Xueye shook his head and enthusiastically said, “l won’t, Aunt Binglan. I feel incredibly fulfilled since you shared your knowledge about architectural design with me.”

He knew he had learned and done many great things since then and felt at ease. It was unlike before when he felt confused when learning about carpentry from his father and grandfather.

Ultimately, he was not interested in carpentry. However, he realized he needed some knowledge of carpentry to design buildings.

When Su Xueye was younger, he followed his father and grandfather. Their knowledge played a significant role in Su Xueye’ s pa.s.sion for construction.

Previously, Su Binglan told him it was impossible to draw accurate architectural blueprints without basic carpentry knowledge. Therefore, Su Xueye kept learning and practicing.

Su Binglan encouraged him, and he excitedly ran home to study Su Binglan’s remarks on his blueprints.

After lunch, Su Binglan called her parents, uncles, and aunts over for a meeting. The meetings primary focus was to discuss the workers’ year-end bonuses and gifts. She also had to arrange the time for everyone’s vacation.

“l heard people whispering about taking vacations for the holidays when I went to the embroidery shop,” Ding Wan said, “Everyone’s pretty excited, but they don’t know how accurate the news is.”

Shen Qiuhua said, “Binglan, I told the workers at the tofu factory about your plans yesterday afternoon. 1 think they’re the ones who spread the news..”
