Reborn and Divorced: I'm Raising My Kids and Lying Low to Get Rich

Opening her eyes, Chen Hong was reborn. She was reborn just before she was about to take her children back to her parents' home. Not wanting to live a life of looking at others' faces for a...

Chapter 129 Harmony

It turned out that Yu Yang had also gone back inside to change into a blue and white tracksuit.

The little one muttered to himself, "You guys wore the same clothes without telling me. Now it's all good. Luckily, I have the same clothes too, so we have matching family outfits."

Zhou Yi was overjoyed to hear his words, knowing that Yu Yang had accepted him.

Hearing the same words made Chen Hong feel particularly bad. No matter how sensible a child is, he still longs for a normal family.

Unfortunately, his mother was a disappointment and never gave him anything!

After the meal, Yu Yang couldn't stay still. He dragged Zhou Yi up and down the stairs, showing him around every room.

After touring the house, he took Zhou Yi on a walk around the front and back yards, carefully introducing the chickens, ducks, and vegetable garden to Zhou Yi, and then took Zhou Yi to feed the two dogs.

It's as if they're afraid the I Ching won't fit into this family!

The two men, one big and one small, cleaned up even the front and back yards.

Last night it was windy and rainy, and some leaves fell in the yard. Before Chen Hong could even start picking them up, the other two had already finished.

They also cleaned the chicken coop, duck pen, and doghouse, and finally, even cleaned the pickup truck inside and out.

This was the best treatment the pickup truck had received since Chen Hong bought it. Every time she washed the car, Chen Hong would use her spare time to run a hose and rinse the surface of the vehicle.

Chen Hong had never done such a thorough cleaning and wiping before. It wasn't worth it for a car that only cost around 200,000 yuan!

The sun was shining brightly, and the pickup truck, which the father and son had washed until it gleamed, finally looked brand new again.

Chen Hong walked over and touched the car door, then the car window. Looking at her fingers, she saw they were spotless. She said sheepishly, "..."

"You two cleaned the car so well. It's a good thing we're at home. If this were in a city parking lot, people would be jealous."

"Those naughty kids will definitely scratch our car paint. We don't need to clean it so carefully normally, just enough to look decent."

The two exchanged a knowing smile, then lowered their heads to continue their work, ignoring the remark.

Seeing that it was already ten o'clock, Chen Hong asked the two men, "What do you want to eat for lunch? I need to start making lunch."

The two exchanged a glance, and Zhou Yi said, "We'll eat whatever you make. We trust your skills; anything you make will taste good. I'm not picky; anything you make will do."

Yu Yang said, "Mom, you should cook seafood, like lobster, crab, and big fish. Make some so Uncle Zhou can taste your cooking. He definitely can't get fresh seafood in Beijing."

Chen Hong nodded, "Then you two shouldn't work anymore. The sun is too strong now. Go back inside, have some tea, and rest for a while."

I'll go to the dock and see if they have any freshly caught seafood for sale today. Seafood is always the freshest and tastiest when it's just pulled from the water.

Zhou Yi hurriedly said, "No need to go to so much trouble. Just make whatever you have at home. I think the vegetables in the backyard are very fresh. It would be nice to stir-fry some greens."

It's still early, I'm going to drive Yu Yang around for a bit.

Chen Hong nodded, "You know where the keys are. Drive carefully and come back early for lunch."

I'm free this afternoon, so I'll take you two out to sea in my boat. The seafood at the hotel up ahead is running low, so we need to get some more.

"Let's go fishing and bring back some fish; we need to cook for ourselves too."

Since the two of them were going to drive out, Chen Hong went to the front yard, got the tricycle, and headed straight for the dock.

Actually, very few fishing boats return at this time. Chen Hong's trip was just an excuse.

Before entering the village, after checking that no one was around, I took out some seafood from my storage space and put it in the water tank of the tricycle.

I bought some ribs and pork at the village supermarket and then went home to prepare lunch.

When they got home, they found that Zhou Yi had already driven off with Yu Yang, which conveniently allowed Chen Hong to smuggle herself out of the space.

There was a plastic water tank in the kitchen. Chen Hong took out two crabs, a large lobster, and a grouper from her spatial storage.

Knowing that fewer fishing boats return to port in the morning, Chen Hong didn't dare to take too much. She took out a sea bass, some scallops, oysters, and whelks.

These are all seafoods that are easy to find by the sea, and there's enough for one lunch.

Chen Hong went to the backyard and picked some vegetables, just in time for all the vegetables in the house to be harvested.

Thanks to the improved space, all kinds of vegetables are growing very well, producing a lot of fruit, and the fruit shape is much better than last year.

She picked some cucumbers, tomatoes, celery, and rapeseed, and also gathered some scallions, ginger, garlic, and cilantro. Chen Hong returned to the front yard, first preparing all the vegetables, and then washing and cleaning the fish, shrimp, and shellfish.

Chen Hong first cooked a pot of rice, this time adding an extra bowl of rice. She planned to stir-fry six dishes for lunch, thinking that should be enough for Zhou Yi to eat!

Chen Hong tried to increase the amount of food to avoid not having enough to eat. She chopped all the vegetables, marinated the grouper, and all the preparations were done. All that was left was to turn on the heat and start cooking.

Chen Hong called Zhou Yi and learned that they were already on their way back.

She started cooking, steaming three kinds of ingredients in a large pot.

Garlic scallops, steamed lobster and steamed grouper, jellyfish with cucumber, scrambled eggs with tomatoes and spicy crab, and finally a seaweed and egg drop soup.

Lunch is ready!

Just as Chen Hong turned off the stove in the kitchen, she heard the door open. She went out to check and, sure enough, Zhou Yi had returned with Yu Yang.

She looked into the car and was amazed to see that Zhou Yi had bought quite a lot of things; the truck bed was almost full!

Chen Hong was speechless for a moment. She knew that you were eager to build a good relationship with the child, but you can't bribe and fawn over Yu Yang like this!
