When the children arrived home, Bonnie had just gotten out of bed; she had been lying comfortably all morning.

"Mom, we're hungry!"

Sanqi ran into the house.

"I'm hungry too, let's go eat. What would you like to eat, hot pot or roast duck?"

"Hot pot lamb!" the children exclaimed in unison, their voices surprisingly in sync.

“Okay, let’s have hot pot for lunch, all the meat you can eat.” Bonnie waved her hand, it was her treat.

"Mom, do you have enough meat tickets?" Sanqi asked doubtfully.

"You don't need to worry about that, just eat." Bonnie had already thought it through. If they didn't have enough meat coupons, she had dried sea cucumbers and dried abalone. She would talk to the chef about it later.

Gu Xuanyu led the way, with the others following behind, and Bao Ni carrying a bag at the very back.

The group arrived at the bus stop; to eat hot pot, they would have to take a bus to the city.

It's really cold outside. Bonnie looked at the children and saw that they were all dressed warmly, so there was nothing to worry about.

When the group arrived at the hot pot restaurant, many people had already left, and there were still quite a few empty seats.

Bonnie told Gu Xuanyu to take the children to find seats while she went to talk to the head chef. Luckily, the chef wasn't busy and had time to come out and see her.

Bonnie had known how this was done since she was little, and besides, the seafood she was carrying was from a secret base, so the head was no ordinary item.

"Okay, the quality of your seafood is good. I agree to your request. You guys go and eat first. I'll pack some mutton and beef for you when you leave."

The chef was overjoyed; such high-quality sea cucumber and abalone were rare, and his New Year's Eve dinner special was secured. This woman was definitely a veteran; she knew the ins and outs perfectly and wouldn't be taken advantage of.

Bonnie is back, and the dishes are being served one after another, especially the thinly sliced ​​meat. After swirling it in the boiling copper pot and dipping it in the prepared sauce, oh my god, it's so delicious, the aroma is indescribable.

The children were practically swinging their chopsticks away, and even Xuan Yi, who doesn't usually like to eat, had a huge appetite after being dragged around so many laps by Liu Jiu, and was eating with great relish.

Eating hot pot and drinking soda, this is the perfect life!

Liu Jiu's appetite is comparable to Gu Xuanyu's.

The group of one adult and four children ate countless plates of meat. In the end, they were all stuffed and ate everything up, leaving not a single crumb.

Bonnie carried the meat the chef had given her. It was pretty good, about ten pounds, enough to make a good deal.

While Bonnie and the others were eating meat heartily, the people in the family compound were discussing Gu Liujiu.

"Uncle, do you know Gu Yun Chu?" Han Bei asked curiously when he returned home and saw Han Wei Dong lying on the sofa.

"Gu Yun Chu, Gu Yun Chu, ah, you said sixty-nine?"

Han Weidong thought for a long time before he remembered that Liu Jiu's real name was Gu Yun Chu. Everyone usually called him Liu Jiu, so he couldn't recall his real name for a moment.

"You know him?" Han Bei thought about it and realized that since Uncle Gu Ye was there, his uncle must be familiar with him.

"What's wrong? Did you see Liu Jiu?"

"Yeah, Gu Xuanyu took a few of them to the gym today. I didn't expect that little girl to be so good. She's good with words and good with her skills. She beat up Zheng Jun. That kid is pretty good among his peers in the compound. I didn't expect him to be thrown to the ground in the end."

Han Bei thought about Liu Jiu's over-the-shoulder throw; it was quite powerful, and he felt pain just from hearing the sound.

"Liu Jiu has been practicing morning exercises with her dad since she was three years old, including horse stance, so her basic skills are quite good. Not to mention that little Zheng Jun, even if you went there, you might not necessarily have an advantage."

Han Weidong knew Liu Jiu's fighting prowess; he was like a child version of Bao Ni.

"Really? I don't believe it. I'm six or seven years older than her!" Han Bei thought his uncle was exaggerating; he had also undergone training.

"If you don't believe me, just try it."

Han Bei thought about it and decided to give it a try if he had the chance, since his skills were about the same as Gu Xuanyu's.

"Uncle, can I ask you something? Next summer vacation, can I come visit you for a few days? I want to see the ocean and go diving to see the underwater world."

"Would your parents agree to you going to my place?" Han Weidong felt that his older brother and sister-in-law wouldn't feel comfortable letting their son go to his place.

"What's there to worry about? I'm going to my uncle's house to play, and Gu Xuanyu will be there with me, so I'll have company."

Han Bei could already imagine himself swimming freely in the ocean, catching some seafood, and having a seafood feast on the beach – it would be unbeatable!

"What are you thinking about, smiling so slyly!" Han Weidong nudged his nephew, who wasn't much younger than him.

"I'm craving a seafood feast, oh my, my mouth is watering."

Han Weidong kicked him, "Look at you, so full of yourself, talking about a seafood feast. Seafood isn't that easy to catch, what a pipe dream."

"Just tell me if it's okay or not, whether you'd welcome me or not?" Han Bei's mind was now filled with thoughts of the ocean and seafood.

"If you can get your parents' permission, I'll let you come stay with me for a few days."

"Okay, it's a deal. I'll convince my parents myself." Han Bei will deal with his uncle first, then go and convince his parents tonight, and that'll be it.

Han Weidong waved his hand, indicating that he should do as he pleased.

When Zheng Jun got home, his parents weren't there. But his grandfather was home, which was rare!

"Where did they go and cause such a ruckus? How did they get so covered in dirt?" General Zheng and General Han were of similar rank and power.

"Grandpa, my brother got beaten up by a little girl! He fell to the ground with a thud!" Zheng Jun's sister, Zheng Hongyu, excitedly tattled to her grandfather.

"Don't tell!" Zheng Jun tried to stop her, but his sister had already told everyone. Oh no, she'd broken her promise; she'd said she wouldn't tell their parents.
