"Mommy... don't be angry with your son..."
This time it was Zhu Qianying's turn to laugh. "Why would I be angry with you?"
"Zizai only asked his dad because he saw that we had a motorhome. If we didn't have a motorhome, Zizai definitely wouldn't have asked for one!"
The little guy was earnestly defending himself. His brain had analyzed everything Mommy and Daddy said clearly, so it was really difficult to fool him.
Zhu Zhu Qianying pinched his nose. "Okay, I'll let you off this time, but you can't make unreasonable demands in the future, understand?"
Zhu Qianying understood better than anyone that it is easy for a person to go from simplicity to luxury, but very difficult to go from luxury to simplicity.
It might only take a day or two to turn a boy who's always been frugal into a big spender.
In particular, Zizai is such a smart child. He has already begun to realize that he is a young master from a wealthy family, and it is hard to guarantee that he will not become arrogant and conceited because of this.
"Mommy, I know I was wrong. I'll wash the dishes in a bit!"
Sitting to the side, Yan Shao looked as if he had heard some big news, "Zizai, you can wash dishes?"
Zizai glared at him, "Of course! Who's as dumb as you? You can't even wash a dish."
Yan Shao assumed he was lying and tugged at his pouty little face, "Little brat, don't brag!"
Feeling blatantly scorned, Zizai pouted, "Hmph, who's bragging? Zizai really knows it! Mommy can vouch for it!"
As he spoke, he twisted his body and tried to burrow into Zhu Qianying's arms, begging her to be his witness.
“Yes, he can wash them!” Zhu Qianying nodded in affirmation. “However, he did something wrong, and he’s washing the dishes to atone for it!”
Upon hearing Zhu Qianying explain the situation, Yan Shao coughed twice, barely suppressing the urge to burst out laughing.
Well, it's a good thing that my son knows his mistakes and can correct them. I shouldn't laugh at him!
Strictly speaking, the seafood market was not far from the villa. A few minutes later, the cars of the Yan family and the Qin family stopped one after the other on the large lawn in front of the market.
As soon as the three kids got out of the car, they ran off towards the crowd like wild horses, and Zhu Qianying and Shao Shan immediately jogged after them.
Yan Shao and Qin Xiu, on the other hand, calmly followed behind into the market.
For someone like Yan Shao, who rarely even goes to supermarkets, visiting a market, especially a free-style wholesale market like this, is a completely new experience.
Therefore, after walking a few steps, Yan Shao heard a noisy commotion coming from the market and smelled a strange odor mixed with the fishy smell of seafood, which made him frown.
How could Qin Xiu not understand his master?
For someone who demands spotless surroundings, let alone a place to sit, visiting a noisy, bumpy, and filthy suburban market is tantamount to taking their life!
"Sir, why don't you sit in the car for a while?"
When the two were arguing and fighting, they would always try to hit each other's sore spots, but in truth, Qin Xiu really cared about Yan Shao.
Yan Shao stood still, pursing his lips as he gazed at the bustling market, seriously considering whether or not to accept Qin Xiu's suggestion.
Suddenly, a little figure peeked out from the crowd, then stood on tiptoe, waved its little hand at him, and shouted, "Daddy, come here quickly!"
Compared to his son, his feelings of retreat and disgust became insignificant.
His son called him over, and even if there were mountains of knives and seas of fire ahead, or the eighteen levels of hell, he would jump over them. Besides, it was just a distribution market, and it wasn't even that scary!
Yan Shao took a deep breath, mentally prepared himself, and then strode off with the tragic heroism of a warrior going into battle.
Qin Xiu stood beside him, unsure whether to sympathize with his master or be happy for him.
As for pity, it's because he was once such a proud and aloof god, seemingly untouched by worldly affairs, and now he's fallen to earth and become just another ordinary person.
Is he happy? It's because he used to be so lonely and isolated. His world, apart from work, had nothing that could bring him any real joy. But now, whether it's Zhu Qianying or Zizai, even the smallest gesture or a simple word can directly affect his emotions.
"Master, how about I go and buy you a mask?" In the end, Qin Xiu couldn't bear to see his master suffer.
Yan Shao's face lit up with joy, but he quickly shook his head. "No, if Ying'er sees this, she'll definitely throw me back into the car."
Yan Shao could even imagine Zhu Qianying's disdainful expression as she said, "Look at your attitude, if you can't stand it, go back to the car and be a good young master!"
A true man can bend and stretch; how could he, in the face of heat and cold, not even endure this little bit of suffering!
Besides, he really wanted to accompany Zhu Qianying and Zizai around. If the mother and son wanted to go somewhere, he would probably accompany them without hesitation, even to the underworld, let alone the market.
Qin Xiu could only silently shed a tear of sympathy for his boss, and then followed closely behind his master as they walked towards the young master.
Soon, Yan Shao and Qin Xiu found two mothers and three children at a stall. At that moment, Zizai and Nannan were pointing and gesturing around a large red round basin.
Despite the discomfort caused by the pungent, fishy smell, Yan Shao reached out and touched his son's head.
Zizai turned his head and looked at him excitedly, pointing at the big basin with his finger.
"Daddy, look, it's a starfish!" The little girl's face was full of wonder and excitement.
"Hmm, that's interesting!"
Honestly, Yan Shao couldn't tell whether it was interesting or not. In fact, he found the stuff in the basin disgusting. He only agreed with it to avoid disappointing his son.
Zizai was overjoyed to receive Yan Shao's approval, and afterwards, whenever he saw something new and interesting, he would pull Yan Shao aside to talk about it.
And so, the three little kids became the leaders, with the four adults bouncing around behind them.
Chef Zhu Qianying acted swiftly, buying up all sorts of fresh seafood to prepare ingredients for a seafood feast at noon.
Yan Shao and Qin Xiu followed behind, naturally becoming the ones carrying the bags.
Actually, Young Master Yan didn't need to carry it himself, after all, he had several strong bodyguards following behind him.
But today he wanted to be a good father and husband, so he dutifully carried the fish, shrimp, crabs and various shellfish that Zhu Qianying had given him. Even through the bag, he could still smell their unpleasant salty and fishy smell.
At first, Yan Shao suppressed his nausea, but gradually got used to it, and eventually became somewhat numb to it. Although he still disliked the smell wafting through the market, he no longer resisted or rejected it as much as he had at the beginning.
