A clear and pleasant voice rang out; it was Song Yuqing speaking.
Fu Fengying doted on her granddaughter, and immediately nodded and smiled kindly in agreement.
"Okay, okay, Grandma will go with you later."
Fu Wan didn't miss Song Yuqing's furtive glances at her and smiled at her.
The child looked so well-behaved and clever that Fu Wan also missed her own daughter.
"Grandma, can this cousin come with us?"
"Then we'll have to ask my cousin what she thinks."
When Song Yuqing woke up this morning, her father was still asleep.
She caused a scene, and then Song Zhirong had his wife Jiang Lan take her away.
He fell asleep as soon as his head hit the pillow last night, and even dreamt of cleaning tuna.
Jiang Lan put the child to bed early last night and hasn't met Fu Wan yet.
Just as she came out with the noodles, she saw an unfamiliar girl sitting next to the old lady and immediately guessed who she was.
"Cousin, right? Come and have breakfast."
Fu Wan quickly stood up and greeted her, "Hello, I'm Fu Wan."
"Hello, I am Yuqing's mother, Jiang Lan."
Jiang Lan is also Chinese, and her family is better off than Song Zhirong's. The two knew each other when they were in school, and got together after graduating from university.
Song Yuqing looks a lot like Jiang Lan, especially her big, dark eyes, which make people want to get close to her.
While Fu Wan was sizing up Jiang Lan, Jiang Lan was also observing her cousin who had come from afar.
When Fu Fengying told me last time that she had found her lost family in China, she and her husband agreed that they had been scammed.
But seeing the resemblance between Fu Wan and Fu Fengying, she immediately dismissed the idea.
They really found their relatives!
The old lady always eats on time, and she must have already eaten by now.
"Ah Wan, are those fish in the refrigerator ones you caught yesterday when you went out to sea?"
Fu Fengying took a sip of warm water before remembering the scene she saw when she opened the refrigerator that morning.
Good heavens, the entire refrigerator is full of fish. Besides the cleaned tuna, there are also a few other fish that haven't been processed yet.
Jiang Lan also saw it, and was especially shocked to see that they were all valuable fish such as red sea bream and sea bass.
With such skills, one can become rich anywhere.
Therefore, Jiang Lan guessed that Fu Wan was not a poor relative who came to freeload, and treated her with kindness and gentleness.
"I see some red sea bream, sea bass, and a few groupers. Why didn't you sell them, Awan?"
Jiang Lan asked with genuine concern, explaining that she often went to the docks or supermarkets with Fu Fengying to buy groceries and knew the approximate prices of these fish.
Fu Wan smiled and said, "These fish are what we caught yesterday. Both red sea bream and sea bass have few bones, making them perfect for children and the elderly."
As a mother, of course, I like it most when others don't ignore my child.
When Fu Wan arrived at Fu Fengying's house yesterday, she already knew that Fu Fengying had a little granddaughter, since there were still toys on the chair that hadn't been put away yet, and Fu Fengying also mentioned it later.
However, when they arrived yesterday, they happened to run into Jiang Lan taking Song Yuqing to visit her parents' home, so they didn't see her.
When Jiang Lan heard that these fish were for her family, especially the children and the elderly, her smile became even more genuine.
"Ah Wan, you're amazing! You managed to catch such an expensive fish."
"I heard from your cousin last night that the tuna in the fridge is bluefin tuna?"
Fu Wan put down her chopsticks and nodded. This morning's noodles were egg noodles, which she had finally managed to finish.
Fu Fengying was speechless when she heard about this; she didn't know whether it was Jack or Song Zhirong who did it.
This morning, Jiang Lan got up early and asked the maid to steam egg custard for Jiang Yuqing. Unexpectedly, when she opened the refrigerator, a huge tuna head was right in front of her, which almost sent Jiang Lan and the maid to their deaths.
Fortunately, Fu Fengying came downstairs just then and explained to them where the fish came from.
When Fu Fengying told Fu Wan about it, Jiang Lan laughed heartily. As they were talking, Song Zhirong came downstairs looking sleepy.
"Hurry up and eat, you're the last one!"
Fu Fengying urged her hurriedly, and Fu Wan noticed her words and couldn't help but feel a little strange.
"Have Jack and Bai Qianzhou already eaten?"
"Yes, they got up early today and said they were going to Los Angeles to buy plane tickets. I asked them to go to the supermarket and bring back some groceries for me so we can have a nice meal at home today."
"Oh, I see," Fu Wan suddenly remembered that Bai Qianzhou had mentioned this to her last night. She was too sleepy and had only vaguely agreed.
When Song Zhirong came out of the kitchen with his bowl of noodles, the maid had just taken away Fu Wan's bowl and Song Yuqing's bowl.
To be honest, having a maid is actually quite nice. It's just a pity that this isn't feasible at home right now. Not only is it unsafe to hire a nanny, but Ye Xiaocui and the others wouldn't agree to it either.
The villagers might even grumble that this is capitalist behavior.
"Cousin, am I calling you 'cousin'?"
Song Yuqing ran to Fu Wan's side and asked curiously.
"Yes, it's my cousin."
Seeing such a cute little girl, Fu Wan couldn't help but pat her head.
Song Yuqing was initially a little embarrassed, but seeing how friendly Fu Wan was, she quickly revealed her true nature.
"Auntie, I heard you found a lot of beautiful seashells. Can you take me with you?"
After saying that, she looked at Fu Wan with her big, watery eyes. Ellie, who was playing on the side, also ran over when she heard this.
Ellie's Chinese is so-so; she often imitates Song Yuqing's speech.
Under the irresistible charm of the two children, Fu Wan agreed without hesitation.
"Okay, let's go collect seashells together!"
As soon as she finished speaking, the sound of car horns blared outside the yard. Fu Wan looked over and thought it was Jack and Bai Qianzhou returning, but to her surprise, it was Robert and Tom who got out of the car.
Hey, Jack!
Jack isn't home!
Robert was initially a little embarrassed when he saw Jiang Lan, but his expression became excited again when he saw Fu Wan come out.
"Hey Wan, good morning! I brought you strawberries!"
strawberry?
Jiang Lan was quite surprised. She had seen a small bowl of strawberries in the refrigerator today and had initially thought that her husband had bought them with his salary. Now she realized that her husband was clearly not stingy.
Good morning, Robert.
"Wan, Tom and I came to visit you. Are we going fishing again today?"
Fu Wan could roughly understand what he meant, and then shook her head helplessly.
"No, I'm too tired. I want to spend today with my family."
Upon hearing this, Robert immediately became somewhat dejected.
"But we're going to the beach to collect seashells now, do you want to come along?"
"Yes!"
Tom answered first, saying that he had seen other people find a lot of fish on the beach before, and maybe if they followed the mysterious Chinese people, they could also find fish!
Robert couldn't wait any longer. He took a large bucket off the car and showed it to Fu Wan like a treasure.
"Look, this is a gift from my grandfather to you."
Fu Wan and Jiang Lan looked over, puzzled, and to their surprise, there was a whole bucket of strawberries inside.
It looks like it weighs at least 15 pounds!
