Lin Yu watched as Bao Ni busied herself building the wall. He wanted to go up and argue with her, but she completely ignored him. He wanted to spar with her, but then he remembered the spot where he had been kicked and couldn't bring himself to do it. In the end, his sister-in-law helped him back into the house.
"Grandpa, are you heartbroken that you beat up your eldest grandson?"
"Good riddance! You should have been beaten a long time ago. Your grandma told you before that a little kindness is appreciated, but too much kindness breeds resentment, and you never took it to heart. Now you know, right?"
Grandpa pointed with his finger from afar, saying, "This girl can be quite stubborn sometimes; she won't listen to anything I say."
“Grandpa, I’m giving those things to you, Grandma, and Mom and Dad. They’re all freeloading, and I have to worry about what they think. Aren’t you tired? If you can’t stand it, give them a beating. If one beating isn’t enough, give them two. If you beat them too many times, they’ll have no more ideas.”
"Haha... my dear niece, I definitely won't have any ideas in the future, so don't use me as a practice subject."
Good heavens, Lin Baoni is still the same as ever after ten years. Even after getting married, she's still so simple and straightforward. If she can take action, she'll never nag.
"No, I can't lay a hand on my elders. At most, I'll just hold you down and let Grandpa do it."
Bonnie joked, trying to ease her father's anger. There was no need to be angry; it was no big deal. She could give her things to whomever she wanted, whether she was happy or not. Who cared?
"Alright, you're a mother of two now, and you still can't get rid of this habit of hitting people. You'll set a bad example for your children."
Bonnie's dad knew his daughter wanted to cheer him up, so he wasn't too angry. The child is grown up, has her own family, and has her own ideas, which is understandable. If they can't get along, they can separate; it's that simple.
The Lin family has lived on the island for so many years, braving wind and rain, and more than one person has perished at sea. Most of them have a very open-minded attitude. Their parents raised them, gave them the skills to make a living, and the rest was up to them.
Not to mention others, his two uncles' families were the same; they separated early on and lived their own lives, earning a living through their own abilities. The only variable in his family was that Bonnie found a way out for her brothers through her own abilities.
Seeing that her father didn't really care, Bonnie stopped worrying and quickly finished her work so her uncle could cook her a nice meal.
Delicious food can make people feel happy.
Seafood is never in short supply on the island. Bonnie went to the grocery store and bought a piece of pork liver and more than a pound of pork belly. That was enough for her uncle to cook.
At noon, Uncle Lin performed exceptionally well, preparing a table full of colorful, fragrant, and delicious dishes, the aroma wafting far and wide.
That evening, when Bonnie got home, she told Gu Ye that she had beaten up Brother Lin. Gu Ye patted Bonnie's head, smiled, and didn't say anything.
Nothing is more important than making Bonnie feel better. So what if she gets beaten up? It's not a big deal.
When it comes to protecting his own, Gu Ye is absolutely number one.
What's done is done, Bonnie won't dwell on it; she's already forgotten about it. She has other things to do.
Professor Gao's research on spores has made some progress, but further experiments are needed. Perhaps he will succeed in the near future. Bonnie needs to start preparing for many things.
That day, Bao Ni took San Qi to her parents' home. Because of Bao Ni's brilliant idea, the wall in the yard was built a bit high. After seeing it many times, it didn't feel so awkward anymore. She just didn't know how her mother would react when she came back and saw it.
"Grandma, put it down there, I'll take care of it. How's your recovery going?"
"Everything's fine now. Your uncle came over and cooked for me these past few days. I didn't expect him to have such a talent; he cooked really well. Your grandfather and I ate a lot of it. Now, I'm much better and can do everything again. You don't have to come back every day anymore."
Grandma is sharp-witted and perceptive; she knows everything. Her daughter, Bao Ni, is just too carefree and loose-fisted. Sigh, silly girl!
Bonnie, who lived in an era where food and drink were plentiful for over twenty years, really couldn't live like people do nowadays. Fortunately, the original Bonnie wasn't short of money either, and their personalities were quite similar; otherwise, the deception would have been exposed long ago.
"Grandma, I'm busy these days. Could you keep an eye on the Panax notoginseng for me? Once I'm done, I won't be coming over. If you don't want to cook, my uncle can cook for you. They don't go out to sea much anymore."
"Yeah, your uncle is thrilled. He can practice his skills and get a good meal at the same time."
"Hehe, it's okay. We don't need his food and drink. Let him eat. When he becomes successful, we'll eat our way back."
Bonnie and her grandma chatted on and on, making her grandma laugh until tears streamed down her face.
"Alright, go ahead and do what you need to do. I'll stay home and look after Sanqi."
"Alright, I'll take my leave now. Comrade Sanqi, have fun at home with your wife, and wait for your mother to come and take you home."
"Go away, go away, let your wife play."
Sanqi probably didn't want to listen to his mother's nagging, so he waved his little hands rapidly, as if he was about to get an electric shock.
"I know, you really are my son!"
Bonnie went to the educated youth settlement and could still hear the sounds of things being thrown and broken coming from the neighboring courtyard. Bonnie couldn't be bothered with it; when she didn't care about you, you were nothing to her. Except for Da Bao, Bonnie didn't care what they were like; they were all adults.
Is Han Weidong here?
"Sixth Sister, you were looking for me?"
"Isn't that obvious? Why would I call Han Weidong to find someone else? Are you out of your mind? How did you manage to be so powerful in Beijing?"
Looking at the man who had Gu Mei completely infatuated with her, Bonnie couldn't see any way that could compare to her own Gu Ye. With such an outstanding older brother standing beside her, Gu Mei's judgment was poor, and her brain wasn't up to par either.
"What do you want?"
Han Weidong was speechless. Wasn't Liu Jiu Niang's expression of disgust too obvious? Was this really okay? She didn't even try to hide her disgust.
