Hanhan helped her grandfather grill the fish, carefully removed the bones, and fed it to her grandmother.

"Hanhan is the best boy. His eyes are so sharp; I'm already seeing through them," Zhou Xing's mother said with a happy smile.

"I always thought that if every family could live together like in the past, with four generations under one roof, it would be so much more interesting. Now it's come true," Commander Zhou said with a smile.

"Little Fish made it happen for you, that kid is really something." The wife laughed too.

Wang Lei and Tang Fengqin arrived later, and they also brought Commander Wang and Wang Lei's father with them.

Everyone busied themselves to greet her. Commander Wang was an acquaintance, so no one was polite to her. It was Wang Lei's father's first time visiting, so he was a little reserved. Commander Zhou pulled him to sit down next to him.

"You can't resist good food," Zhou Xing's mother teased Commander Wang.

"I haven't even said anything to you yet, and you're already bringing me up. You come all the way to such a nice place to eat and drink, and you didn't even bother to call me?" Commander Wang said reproachfully.

“I don’t need to call you, you’ll come right over when you smell it!” Zhou Xing’s mother put a piece of meat on her plate.

"Where is my in-law?" Commander Wang looked around for his cousin-in-law.

"Aunt Wang, so this is what you call in-laws?" Qin Xiaoyu said with a smile, "My sister-in-law won't be here for a while, she's worried about us."

"This was already a done deal. By the way, we're going to meet our in-laws next week. Hey, Little Fish's brother, save me a big private room!" Commander Wang called out to Qi Si again, as he and Wang Lei were fiddling with grilling some seafood.

"Okay, just say the word." Qi Si replied.

"What a wonderful thing! Who would have thought that Aunt Wang and your cousin's wife would become in-laws?" The lady was overjoyed.

"She's lucky. You couldn't find someone like Fengqin even with a lantern," Zhou Xing's mother laughed.

"Yes, I'm lucky, so what?" Commander Wang deliberately shook his head, and everyone laughed.

"Is my brother about to have a grandson?" Commander Zhou and Wang Lei's father were already toasting each other when they heard the women chatting animatedly over there, so they picked up their glasses and clinked them together.

"No rush. My son Xiaolei said he wants Fengqin to finish university. She can study for as long as she wants. Our family supports her and has no objections. As long as the child is happy." Wang Lei's father is an honest and kind man who doesn't usually have the final say at home.

“You’re right. We shouldn’t interfere in the children’s affairs. Only when they are well can the family be well.” Commander Zhou’s face darkened as he said this, and he poured himself a glass of wine to gulp it down.

"Dad, drink less. Hanhan will scold you again soon. You never learn." Qin Xiaoyu knew he was thinking of Zhou Xing, so she deliberately came over to annoy him, snatched the wine glass away, and gave Hanhan a wink.

Hanhan had just fed his wife a fish when he rushed over, bent over, and rummaged under the small table to check if Commander Zhou had hidden any liquor.

"Grandpa didn't drink too much, look, he really didn't drink too much, just one sip..." Commander Zhou looked completely innocent and had already raised his hands in surrender. This old man had fought in many battles over the years, and now he was only surrendering to his grandson.

"I want an oyster, this big one, I want it!" Qin Xiaoyu went to cause trouble for Qi Si and tried to snatch an oyster from Wang Lei.

Wang Lei had baked it for Fengqin, so he wasn't about to give it away and took it away like a precious treasure.

"Brother, didn't I tell you to pick up your godmother? Why won't you come?" Qin Xiaoyu told Qi Si when she came back, asking him to go around picking up Aunt Wang instead.

"I was just about to leave when I went there to visit the detention center. I heard there's been some trouble there lately, and everyone's taking leave to avoid going to work. This time, the old lady is going to make a fortune." Qi Si clicked his tongue.

"Really? What happened?" Qin Xiaoyu recalled the last time she visited Aunt Wang, who was performing a shamanistic ritual at home. The old lady was quite capable.

"There was a policewoman surnamed Wen who suddenly went crazy and tried to attack her husband with a knife in the middle of the night. Her husband was also an insider and had a gun, so he shot her in the wrist. I heard her hand was broken and couldn't be reattached."

"Xiao Wen!" Qin Xiaoyu exclaimed in surprise.

"You know who hurt you last time?"

"right!"

"My godmother knows what she's doing. She won't take the initiative, but if someone bullies her, she'll definitely retaliate," Qi Si sneered.

"Give me one." Sister-in-law Xiao Si ran over with a plate.

"Don't eat anymore. Last time you ate so much you had diarrhea and the child went hungry all day," Qi Si said with a dark face.

"What! Is your son the most important person?" Fourth Sister-in-law stomped her foot angrily.

"Sister-in-law, you know, my brother and I have been together for quite a while now. He just says things in a sarcastic way, so you should just listen and analyze it. Even if he cares about you, he won't speak nicely," Qin Xiaoyu advised.

“Our Xiaoyu knows how to talk. I always tell your fourth sister-in-law, you should learn from her. If you learn even half of what Xiaoyu does, your husband will be able to flatter you to the heavens.” Fourth sister-in-law walked over with a chuckle.

Qi Si, finding the women too numerous and chaotic, took his wine glass and went to find Commander Zhou and the others.

Tang Fengqin sat next to Commander Wang, eating her meat politely and not saying much. Wang Lei sat next to her, his eyes glued to her, as if she were his whole world.

"I was just saying, Xiao Lei, if Feng Qin goes to university, wouldn't you go with her?" Commander Wang teased his son.

"Then get married and have children as soon as possible." Grandma Hanhan, though not good with words, still tried to join in the fun.

Tang Fengqin was so ashamed that she couldn't even lift her head. She put down the small plate, got up, and walked away.

Wang Lei didn't want to chase after them directly, so he awkwardly flipped the meat slices in the pot.

"We're late." My cousin's wife and brother arrived in Tang Long's tricycle.

Qin Xiaoyu quickly started another fire, and Wang Lei came over to help.

"Is there enough meat? If not, I'll go buy some more." Qi Si hurried over to check.

"That's enough. These people can't eat much; it's all cat food." Qin Xiaoyu lifted the lid of the bowl containing the meat, revealing that there was still about a third of it left.

She used chopsticks to remove half of it, put it in a small bowl, covered it with newspaper, and delivered it to Captain Chen.

The people on the construction site are all doing physical labor; I'm afraid no matter how much we send to them, there won't be any left over.

Qin Xiaoyu was right; the meat basins over there were empty, and the workers were roasting sweet potatoes and vegetables.

"I was just saying I'd buy some more, and you brought it over," Captain Chen said with a smile.

"Little Fish is so thoughtful, bringing us all this delicious food, and there's plenty to go around," one worker said with a smile, and the others echoed his sentiments, thanking him profusely.

When you go to work for someone else's family, you're lucky if they give you a few steamed buns for lunch and a pot of egg drop soup that's barely enough for hot pot. That's considered good food on weekdays. On weekends, they even give you barbecue, which is the best treatment you can get.

"Hey Little Fish, if this project is finished, where are we going to get any good food? If you ask me, just keep building, fill up this coal mine, and we'll all get a share of the profits," someone said, and everyone laughed.

"Okay, let's build it then, and continue next year." Qin Xiaoyu really did have this plan.

"Hey girl, come here. Let's get down to business." Captain Chen called her aside.
