Children can be spoiled, but not excessively.
No one else could scare A-Yuan, but his mother could, so when she saw him making too much of a fuss, she came over.
At first, A Yuan tried to resist, hiding behind Er Ye and timidly peeking out while holding onto his trouser leg. When he saw his mother, he first smiled and showed his little white teeth to test her, but after a few attempts, seeing no sign of warmth on his mother's face, he reluctantly came out, afraid of getting a slap on the bottom.
Chen Rou bent down and said to her son, "The fish are like little babies. They don't want to leave home. We can only look at them, not take them away, and we can't touch them because our hands have germs, okay?"
"Mom won't let me take it, then I won't take it," A-Yuan said clearly, enunciating each word distinctly.
But he was clearly unhappy. Looking back at the big golden koi with its fluttering wings, he really wanted to touch it, but he didn't dare. Sigh, baby is so sad.
Seeing this, Dong Ye, who had spent his life doing bad things, couldn't hold back any longer. He raised his hand and beckoned to Ah Lang. When Ah Lang bent down, Dong Ye whispered, "Tonight, you come and get that big fish..."
If we sneak back to Yiyong Hall, next time A-Yuan goes there, he'll be able to see the fish he likes.
Ah Lang nodded and gave an OK sign with his fingers.
Ornamental fish have rather demanding living conditions. Grandpa was just trying to make A Yuan happy; old people spoil their children without restraint. But Chen Rou knew that the fish weren't suited to shallow water. If they were bumped or scratched, they would get hurt and die if not properly cared for.
Nie Zhao was also checking his watch; he had other places to go. So she handed the net to Brother Chicken and said, "Put the fish back."
A-Yuan didn't cry loudly, but when he saw Yu-Yu was about to leave, he immediately pouted.
Grandpa Er couldn't stand this and got a little angry: "Arou, take the child back."
He added, "I gave it to him; let the child take it now."
What I fear most is that the elderly spoil the child without any restraint. A Yuan nodded vigorously, raised his little arm to show his mother, and mumbled repeatedly to his mother that the baby could be carried, which sounded like "dududongdong".
Grandpa didn't care about a fish, as long as the child was happy. He simply asked Brother Chicken to find a plastic bag to put the fish in and let A Yuan hold and play with it. But seeing his attitude, Nie Zhao couldn't stand it anymore. He picked up his son and said seriously, "A Yuan, if you take it away now, the fish will die and won't be able to play with you anymore. Do you want it?"
The child doesn't understand how the world works and thinks the fish can be a pet for him to play with.
But if the fish can never play with him, how could he possibly want it?
Sure enough, A Yuan got serious, pouted, and tears welled up in her eyes: "No way."
But he's so young, yet so sensible, which makes him even more adorable.
And at this moment, wouldn't you find Master Dong, who was hiding in the corner with a gloomy and repulsive face, even more annoying?
Master Dong felt that without Master Er, he would be the only one watching A Yuan play and enjoying his grandchildren, just like Master Er.
If there hadn't been any other conflict between them, things would have been fine. However, when Master Dong quietly told Ah Lang to sneakily steal the big koi, neither of them noticed that Brother Liang was tiptoeing behind them.
Now everyone was heading out to the mountains surrounding the village, and Brother Liang seized the opportunity to tell Grandpa Er about what had happened.
Master Er knew that his opponent was treacherous and despicable, the worst old man in Hong Kong. He also knew that since the opponent wanted to steal, he would definitely send someone to steal. The best way was to ambush people at night, catch the fish thief, and hand him over to Chen Rou.
In that case, even if Master Dong is her biological grandfather, Chen Rou will still turn against him, which is the best solution.
But since Master Er could disband the gang more than a year before Master Dong and become a leisurely old man, he wouldn't do that.
So, everyone went up the mountain together. In February, the spring flowers were in full bloom, and the whole mountain was a riot of color. Little Kuangzai was holding Ah Yuan, and his father was snapping pictures of his son with his camera. Erye deliberately lagged behind and walked with Chen Rou. He relayed what Brother Liang had just said to Chen Rou verbatim, but he didn't blame Dongye. He just said, "I was afraid that old guy would send people over in the middle of the night. In his haste, he might hurt Ah Yuan's beloved fish. Let's hurry. I'll have someone deliver the fish to the Repulse Bay mansion. I heard you just finished renovating your house. Consider it my congratulatory gift. Ah Yuan can keep an eye on it from now on."
Seeing Chen Rou frowning and looking quite angry, although he was also a bit of a green tea bitch, trying to sow discord between Chen Rou and Master Dong, he saw things more clearly and further ahead when it came to matters of principle.
He said, “My people are scattered like stars in the sky, but united we are one heart. I was just about to confront the Yi Yong Tang. Don’t underestimate Ah Liang just because he’s a movie actor. He has real kung fu skills and can fight. But Ah Rou, even if you’re not a mainland spy or 007, you brought Cheung Tze-keung to the mainland. The Nie family still has so much work in the mainland. As his grandfather, before the handover, at such a sensitive time, I must put away my weapons, put aside the disputes, and let the mainland government see our sincerity.”
This was the first time Chen Rou had addressed him differently: "Father, thank you."
Master Er suddenly stopped, paused for a moment, and his expression became unnatural, but after a while, he smiled and said, "It's only right."
Heaven knows how many years he had waited for that "Ah-ye" from him.
