Having finally gotten to eat the rabbit he had been longing for, Jack's chopsticks never stopped moving.
This made Ye Xiaocui, who was cooking, very happy. She went to the kitchen, found a spoon, and scooped a full bowl of rabbit meat for him.
It's only because the Fu family is doing well now that they don't care about this way of eating. Otherwise, the bowl of rabbit meat that Jack ate would be a whole day's worth of food for most other families.
"Hey Jack, eat more! If you like it, I'll make it again tomorrow!"
Ye Xiaocui's face was full of kind smiles. Ever since her family started raising rabbits, they have been able to eat rabbit meat every few days.
There's no way around it, rabbits reproduce just too fast, one litter after another. If we don't hurry up and eat them, the rabbits in our house might start eating people.
Robert and Tom were dumbfounded by Jack's appearance.
Is rabbit meat really that delicious?
It's not that there aren't rabbits in Los Angeles; in fact, on Robert's estate, they've become an infestation.
Those rabbits destroyed the lawn, stole the vegetables and fruits that old Robert grew, and some of them were particularly fierce, even daring to fight with the family's hunting dogs.
Old Robert had killed a few rabbits with a shotgun before. They tried boiling them and roasting them, and Robert still vividly remembers the terrible taste.
Looking at Fu Wanjie and the others, Robert couldn't help but swallow hard, feeling both curious and afraid of being fooled by the soy milk again.
To Ye Xiaocui, his hesitant expression was a sign of embarrassment.
"Oh, your name is Radish, right? Come and try some of our home-cooked food. Don't be shy here! Make yourself at home!"
After saying that, Ye Xiaocui picked up a spoon and scooped a small spoonful for Robert. It wasn't that she was biased; she was just afraid that Robert wouldn't be used to spicy food.
Sigh, it seems that how beautiful Chinese people name their children is no different from how people in rural China do. Why would a perfectly good child be named Radish?
And the one next to him, his name is Tom. Can a boy be called "M"?
Ye Xiaocui inwardly complained, but remained outwardly enthusiastic.
They've all come all this way to have fun, so she definitely has to take good care of them and not leave a bad impression.
Moreover, Robert and the others were several years younger than Fu Wan and Fu Ming, so Ye Xiaocui treated them almost like her own children.
"Try it, it's delicious."
Fu Wan looked at Robert and advised him. Robert mustered his courage, picked up a piece of rabbit meat with his chopsticks, and stuffed it into his mouth.
Immediately, his eyes widened in surprise, his face filled with astonishment.
Surprisingly, it didn't have that weird taste I had when I was a kid. In fact, it was very fragrant and slightly spicy. Most importantly, it was delicious!
"How is it? Is it delicious?"
Fu Ming was very proud of himself. He wasn't bragging, but few people could resist Ye Xiaocui's cooking.
"Very Dilisuth!"
Robert gave a thumbs-up with sparkling eyes. Seeing this, Tom, without even needing Ye Xiaocui to ask, reached out and picked up a spoon to scoop some out.
Boss Fu couldn't help but remind them, "Don't you know how to eat? Look at the peanuts in the meat, that's the real essence!"
After saying that, he picked up two peanuts, put them in his mouth, chewed them a couple of times, and then took a sip of the wine in his cup. "Hey, that's really good!"
In Fu Dayou's words, that's called awesome!
Fu Dayou, the man who married a woman from Sichuan, has been fishing with Fu Laoda and his friends a lot lately.
Everyone was very satisfied with the meal. Luckily, Ye Xiaocui cooked some noodles later, otherwise there wouldn't have been enough rice.
Fu Ming and Fu Liang had a few drinks with Boss Fu, and Fu Wan was no exception. Everyone was happy to be back today.
Jack, Robert, and the other two tried it, but after only a small sip, they were overwhelmed by the spiciness of the Chinese liquor.
Her face turned bright red from choking.
The meal didn't end until almost 10 o'clock. Fu Ming, Fu Liang, and Ye Lin helped clear the table, while Fu Wan started sorting the local specialties she had brought back.
Ye Lin should take the money for Ye Jianguo's family back, Fu Liang should take the money himself, and the money for Village Chief Fu and Fu San should be taken out and delivered to Fu Laoda first thing tomorrow morning.
After finishing all that, Fu Wan washed her hands and prepared to take the children back to bed. But when she turned around, she found that the two children had fallen asleep while hugging their toy guns and Barbie dolls.
Fu Wan's heart softened, and she patted the two children's hands.
"Lingling, Mingzhu, wake up, let's go back to sleep."
Fu Ling and Qin Ming opened their eyes groggily, and when they saw Fu Wan, they instinctively closed their eyes again, thinking they were still dreaming.
When Fu Wan's voice rang out again, the two children realized that it wasn't a dream, but that Fu Wan had really returned.
"Mom, can I sleep with you tonight?"
"Me too, I want to sleep together too."
Fu Wan's heart melted at the thought. "Okay, okay, let's sleep together, let's sleep together!"
Fu Ming had finished tidying up by now, and seeing this, he picked up a flashlight.
"Ah Wan, let's go, I'll take you home!"
After saying that, he beckoned Jack and the others to follow him, saying that he had a spare room and it would be perfect for Jack and the others to stay there.
Ye Lin didn't go with them. He stayed in Fu Ming's old house and had to go back to Qingshan Village after breakfast the next morning.
The next morning, Fu Wan woke up at around eight o'clock. Although she had spent a day and a night on the train, the comfort of the sleeper berth on the train was not even a tenth of that of her bed at home.
She walked to the window and stretched. The weather was a bit gloomy today, but there were still many villagers gathering seafood and children playing on the beach. Fu Wan could hear their laughter from inside the room.
A sea breeze blew by, and I have to say, the air inside felt fresher than outside.
"Wan, Wan, are you awake? Let's go beachcombing!"
A jarring sound rang out, accompanied by the frantic barking of Big Yellow and Wangcai.
Fu Wan couldn't help but rub her forehead, almost forgetting that she still had three ancestors in her family.
"They're here! They're here!"
Fu Wan responded and quickly changed her clothes before hurrying downstairs.
Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu were running around trying to calm Wangcai and Dahuang down. If it weren't for them, the three foreigners would have been severely punished by Wangcai and Dahuang.
"Wan, you're awake! That's great! Let's go beachcombing! We see lots of people on the beach!"
Robert excitedly showed Fu Wan the crab in his hand.
Fu Wan glanced at it and immediately exclaimed in surprise.
"Wow, you guys caught crabs so early in the morning?"
"They didn't catch it, Grandma Huang gave it to me!"
Fu Ling added from the side, and Fu Wan suddenly realized, "I knew it, that method of tying up the crabs looked familiar."
Robert and his two companions had been talking non-stop since they came in. They had gone to the beach as soon as they got up that day. Although they were stared at by the villagers like gorillas for a while, they also saw the seafood that the villagers were carrying.
The early bird catches the worm, and the villagers who got up early to catch the receding tide also reaped a bountiful harvest.
