Chapter 99 Chapter 99 The energetic little dumpling.

Lin Nanjiang really likes the villa he booked this time. It is not very spacious, and the decoration is not the popular magnificent style. In his wife's words, it is called exquisite luxury, but it just particularly appeals to him.

All the designs and decorations in the villa were eye-catching to him. It was unlike the cold and gorgeous feeling given by the hotel. Living in the villa, Lin Nanjiang felt not like he was on vacation, but rather like he was back home, feeling at ease and comfortable.

The green plants and flowers that filled half the yard, and the romantic rattan chairs and lounge chairs in the garden were exactly the home he often dreamed of; the open kitchen and the exquisite island between the dining room and the kitchen made him feel fresh and interesting. The island was equipped with two high chairs. The boss said that if he and his wife wanted Western food with some red wine, they could sit opposite each other at the island and enjoy it slowly. The knives, forks and high-heeled glasses could be found in the cupboards, and if they needed anything, he could deliver it at any time.

Lin Nanjiang couldn't help but laugh out loud just by imagining him and his wife having a candlelight dinner alone at the island counter.

Not to mention that the master bathroom has a bathtub that is big enough for two adults to play and soak in the water. The feeling is simply indescribable.

But his favorite is the audio-visual entertainment room on the first floor, especially the singing function. Lin Nanjiang tried it once and immediately became addicted to it. If he didn't have to accompany his wife and children to take photos during the day, he could even stay in the villa without going out.

Of course, the villa made Lin Nanjiang obsessed, and the scenery outside was equally charming, especially when it came to going out with his wife and children. Lin Nanjiang was as active as ever. The family would sometimes visit scenic spots, or drive to a remote but undisturbed beach to relax, occasionally take a yacht out to sea for fishing, or bring a swimming ring to the beach to play in the water. One day, he had a sudden idea and climbed up the mountain to wait for the spectacular sight of the setting sun. However, the weather was not good, and the sun disappeared directly into the clouds, allowing them to overlook the entire island city. It was a picture they had never expected, very beautiful and shocking.

Liu Suqin only made detailed plans for departure and departure. As for the itinerary in between, she was half a hands-off boss. Where to go for fun every day was the result of a temporary discussion between the couple. If neither of them knew where to go, they would just go out for a walk. It was also very pleasant to take the children to enjoy the wind and play in the sand.

At that time, the island had not yet begun to fully develop tourism. The island was mainly inhabited by indigenous people, and the locals were warm and friendly to tourists who came to eat, stay and spend money. In addition, Lin Nanjiang was also good at chatting up people. Several times, when they were having breakfast outside, Lin Nanjiang inexplicably started chatting with local diners or bosses, and was recommended many attractions or specialties that only locals knew about. Among them, there were some that interested them. After eating and drinking to their heart's content and paying the bill, they followed the route given by the locals, following their own will and doing whatever they wanted.

The result of being too casual is that small problems often occur during the trip, but surprises are often hidden behind these accidents.

Just like life.

Liu Suqin also likes this state very much. The sunshine and sea breeze seem to have a sense of freedom and laziness.

If adults are like this, little Fangfang can't resist the charm of the resort. She loves the sun and the sea that her mother likes, and she is also interested in the big house that her father is obsessed with studying. She can play outside all day long, and when she comes back, she still has the energy to accompany her father to explore the functions of each room in the big house.

After washing up at night, the little one would sit on her parents' big bed in her pink pajamas. She would hold the telephone receiver with both hands and share her experiences and happiness of the day with her grandparents, uncles and aunts across the street in a baby voice.

Although she is young, she is already a qualified master of keeping things balanced. When she calls her grandparents, she will inevitably include her grandparents, and Grandma Zhang who has always taken care of her tenderly, then her uncle and aunt, Uncle Quansheng and Aunt Li Hong. In short, none of the elders who are good to her will be left out.

It takes some talent to be the group's favorite.

When Xiao Fangfang saw that her mother had a notebook for recording things, she was very impressed and asked for one too. Although she could not read, Liu Suqin still took her to a stationery store near the community. The child picked out the pinkest one herself and also bought a few colorful watercolor pens.

After returning home with her own little notebook, Xiao Fangfang immediately asked her mother to write her name on it.

Liu Suqin found it interesting and not only met the child's request, but also took the initiative to write down her home address and contact number. This inspired the little one, and she took a pen and paper and ran to find other elders and uncles and aunts who came to visit her home to leave their addresses and phone numbers.

Xiao Fangfang's enthusiasm for the notebook lasted for several days. Liu Suqin, who caused this incident, was busy with work and didn't pay much attention to it. She only heard her mother mention it a few times, saying that the little one cherished her little notebook very much. She would carry a small bag when going out to play, just for the notebook. Most likely, she learned it from her biological mother. She also carried a bag whenever and wherever she went out, and liked to buy bags of different colors and styles and change them every day.

Qian Juxiang's original intention was to complain that her mother did not set a good example for her child, but instead taught her a life of extravagance and waste through words and deeds all day long.

Liu Suqin smiled when she heard this, and thought to herself that "bao" can cure all diseases. Her daughter has realized this at such a young age. She has a bright future. She won't have to worry about having no one to accompany her shopping in the future.

In short, their ideas were completely different and neither of them focused on the notebook.

Until this time when the family of three went on vacation, the luggage was packed by Lin Nanjiang. Liu Suqin made the final check and confirmed that everything was correct. Just as they were about to carry the suitcase out, Xiao Fangfang saw the bag in her mother's hand and suddenly remembered her own small bag. She ran back to the room and came out two minutes later. She also had a colorful handmade bag on her little shoulders. Seeing this, Lin Nanjiang praised his daughter for her beautiful bag and went downstairs first with a suitcase in one hand.

Liu Suqin originally wanted to help her daughter check the items in her small bag, as some items could not pass security check. However, when she saw Lin Nanjiang had already gone downstairs, she forgot about it in an instant. She took her daughter's hand, checked the doors and windows one last time, locked the door and prepared to leave, and picked up the travel bag at the door.

When we arrived at the airport, the ticket checking and security check process went very smoothly. Xiao Fangfang was in high spirits all the way, carrying her small bag.

She and her parents couldn't finish the chocolate snacks given by the beautiful sisters on the plane, so they put them carefully in their bags. Liu Suqin paid a little attention and saw that the little one didn't try to sneak some candy from time to time, so she felt more relieved and let her daughter keep her personal belongings herself.

It was Xiao Fangfang who suggested calling her grandparents. Probably because on the first night on the island, they used the bedroom phone to call relatives and friends to report their safety. Xiao Fangfang remembered this. On the second night, after washing up, seeing that her parents had no intention of calling, Xiao Fangfang, who had been squatting beside the cabinet where the telephone was placed for a long time, lost her patience and pulled her father, who was still watching TV in the room, to make the call.

Lin Nanjiang was also a bit of a mouthful, deliberately teasing his daughter by saying that he had finished his phone call yesterday and had nothing much to say today. Xiao Fangfang shouted, "I do have a lot to say to grandpa and grandma!"

"So you're going to call them?"

Xiao Fangfang nodded vigorously.

Lin Nanjiang: "Do you have their numbers? Dad doesn't know their phone numbers."

I thought I'd see a tearful little cutie, but his daughter was well prepared. With a snap, she pulled out a colorful little notebook from her bag. The little girl couldn't read, but she had a good memory. She flipped through the pages one by one to show her dad, "This is what Mom wrote. It's our home address and phone number. Mom said that if Fangfang gets lost, she can't wander around or talk to strangers. She has to find a police officer in uniform and tell him our address and phone number. He'll then notify Mom and Dad to pick Fangfang up. If we lose the notebook and can't remember the phone number or address, it doesn't matter. We should still find the police officer and tell him Mom and Dad's names and where they work. They'll help Fangfang find her home."

Xiao Fangfang held her head high and chest out, remembering every word her mother said.

After recounting the instructions her mother had given her when she left the phone number, Xiao Fangfang continued to turn the pages. "The second one is my grandparents' hometown number, and the third one is Grandma Zhang's home number. She and Grandma can't write, so Mom wrote it. Grandma told Fangfang to study hard and learn to write so she wouldn't have to bother others. The one after Grandma is Uncle Quansheng, but Uncle Quansheng went back to his hometown for the New Year and called Grandpa and Grandma, but Grandpa and Grandma's number isn't on the list. Dad, do you remember?"

Lin Nanjiang silently wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, "Remember, remember, Dad will call you right now. Who do you want to call first, my dear?"

I really didn't expect that at an age when other children couldn't even control their pee and poop, his daughter was already so amazing that she had figured out the interpersonal relationships at home.

When Liu Suqin came out of the bathroom after drying her hair, she saw her daughter talking in a baby voice on the other end of the phone, while Lin Nanjiang was squatting at her daughter's feet, holding something in his hands and studying it intently.

Liu Suqin could hear her mother's loud voice through the phone line, so she didn't need to ask her daughter who she was talking to. She moved behind Lin Nanjiang to see what he was studying, and this one glance made her speechless.

Lin Nanjiang raised his hand and held the notebook to her eyes as if presenting a treasure. "Our daughter drew this. Isn't it beautiful?"

Liu Suqin pondered for a moment, "Uh... the color is very bright."

How could the graffiti created with the watercolor pens she bought not be bright and eye-catching?

Lin Nanjiang didn't catch her hidden meaning and continued admiring it happily, "Look at how rich and harmonious the colors are. It shows that our Fangfang has a talent for painting, and we can't bury her!"

"so what?"

"How about sending her to learn painting in the future?"

Liu Suqin didn't hesitate. "Sure. If Fangfang is willing, I'll find her a painting class in two years. I'll just cultivate her interest and hobby."

Lin Nanjiang was curious: "Why two years?"

"I'm sending her to kindergarten after the Lunar New Year just to get her acquainted with group life and make more friends. I don't expect her to learn anything at such a young age. When she's five or six, she'll be in the senior class of kindergarten and have had enough fun. I think she'll be able to sit still. It's a good time to try to arrange some extracurricular interest courses for her."

Lin Nanjiang scratched his head. He said that he would send his daughter to learn painting several years later, but he didn't expect his wife to be so anxious. A five or six-year-old child is about to start attending interest classes, not just one or two. From what his wife said, their daughter will face a lot of pressure in her studies in the future.

Lin Nanjiang lit a candle for his daughter in advance, but it was absolutely impossible for him to resist his wife's arrangement. His wife was also doing it for the good of the child. He nodded without hesitation and said, "Okay, honey, whatever you arrange is fine."

Little Fangfang, oblivious to her parents' nonchalant attitude, had already discussed her future studies after she turned five or six. She was happily sharing with her grandmother the joy of building castles and playing ball on the beach with a group of other children. "Sister Linlin said they'll come back tomorrow, but Mom and Dad are taking me fishing. We'll be out all day, so I can't be with Sister Linlin... But Fangfang will be home tonight. I'll call Grandma as soon as I'm done. Please wait for me!"

The adults on both sides were amused by the little guy's busy work and agreed on a time to talk on the phone tomorrow. Qian Juxiang said with a smile, "Grandma, remember, be by the phone at this time tomorrow. Fangfang, don't forget the time."

Xiao Fangfang promised earnestly, "I won't forget."

After that, I called other people and they had similar content and the same agreement. The little guy was very patient and talked for almost half an hour on the phone. After saying the last "bye", he was so sleepy that tears came to his eyes and he fell asleep. He was completely unaware of the house-destroying noises that followed from his parents and slept soundly.

After waking up, she was a lively girl again, happily repeating the previous day's actions, playing outside, going home to explore the big house with her father, and then patiently sharing her happiness of the day with every elder who was waiting for her call.
