Just as the family sat around the table and picked up their chopsticks for dinner, Kong Dahong suddenly arrived.
Kong Dahong placed the lunchbox on the coffee table and said, "This is wild boar meat. Since no one in your family went to the canteen to get it, I brought it back for you."
The person who killed the wild boar was credited and could receive a large portion of wild boar meat without spending any money. However, since his family didn't lack meat, Luo Shicheng didn't go to claim it.
Sun Bailing weighed the lunchbox in his hand and smiled, "The portion is quite large, thank you."
Kong Dahong then showed off the new water bottle he was carrying, saying, "This is for Yanyan."
Upon hearing this, Luo Yan jumped off the chair like a marble and took the pink water bottle from Kong Dahong's hand.
"Thank you, Uncle Kong."
Luo Yan's emotional value is off the charts.
"Pretty, Yan Yan has congee."
"I'm glad Yan Yan likes it..." Kong Dahong smiled broadly.
"Grandma?" Luo Yan looked up, her big, bright eyes gazing at Kong Dahong as she asked.
Kong Dahong's smile widened. "Alright, the doctor said the test results will be out tomorrow. If there are no problems, you can go home to rest."
"Great job!" Luo Yan clapped her hands and laughed as she carried the water bottle on her back.
Kong Dahong patted Luo Yan's head affectionately, "Yes, that's great, Yan Yan is even better."
Sun Bailing invited Kong Dahong to eat with him, but Kong Dahong declined, saying...
"My grandmother survived this ordeal and wants to celebrate with everyone. Your whole family must come the day after tomorrow; not one of you can be missing."
Sun Bailing nodded, "This is a joyous occasion, I must go."
"Then it's settled."
Kong Dahong took his leave, and Sun Bailing personally saw him off at the door.
Upon reaching the main gate, Kong Dahong stopped and whispered to Sun Bailing.
"Your family even brought up the fact that you have over a thousand in savings for the child you picked up... Comrade Shen Suyin's financial strength is undeniable, there's nothing more to say about this."
But you must be careful, watch out for those unseen villains.
Sun Bailing thanked him, and Kong Dahong waved and left.
After dinner, Hua Li and Luo Shicheng each picked up a book to study, Sun Bailing and Shen Suyin walked the chickens, and Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu went out to play.
Seeing that it wasn't dark yet, Luo Yan decided to go to the foot of the mountain to collect some birch bark.
"Brother, Shanshan."
Without saying a word, Xiao Xiu and Luo Yan headed towards the back door.
Passing by an abandoned courtyard, Luo Yan heard children shouting and cursing coming from the half-open gate, which sounded like Yang Tie and Leng Jian.
Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu tiptoed to the door and peeked through the crack. They saw Xu Yuncong leading a group of children in a beating of Yang Tie and Leng Jian.
Despite being beaten, Yang Tie and Leng Jian remained defiant, shouting and cursing that Xu Yuncong was not allowed to slander Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu.
After listening for a while, Luo Yan raised her little foot and kicked the door panel. Because she kicked too hard, the door panel fell to the ground with a crash, scaring a group of children into scattering and running away.
Yang Tie and Leng Jian were also terrified. They huddled together and looked towards the door. Amidst a cloud of dust, they saw two pigtails swaying and coughing as they walked towards them.
Xu Yuncong was shocked and couldn't believe that a little baby who was a head shorter than him could kick down the door panel.
"Why are you fighting?" Xiao Xiu, walking beside Luo Yan, asked Yang Tie, but her eyes remained fixed on Xu Yuncong, who was dumbfounded.
Yang Tie, “They called you and Yan Yan the bastards of capitalists. I wouldn’t let them say that, so they beat me up.”
Xiao Xiu knew Yang Tie and Leng Jian's fighting strength. "You won't fight them?"
Yang Tie and Leng Jian pulled Xiao Xiu back, saying, "No, we can't fight."
Luo Yan agreed, not because she was afraid of the Xu family's power, but because she couldn't embarrass the old hero Xu Baojuan.
"Let's go catch some fish."
Yang Tie and Leng Jian spoke up for her and Xiao Xiu unconditionally, so they deserve to be rewarded.
Yang Tie and Leng Jian jumped up with joy and followed Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu.
Xu Yuncong ordered his followers to stop them, but none of them listened to him; all they could think about was how they could get fish by following Luo Yan.
“Brother, we also want to eat fish…” one of the bolder ones asked Xu Yuncong.
Xu Yuncong had no skill in catching fish, but he didn't want to lose to Luo Yan, so he took out some money from his pocket.
"Catching fish is too dangerous. I'll give you money; you can buy whatever you like to eat."
Each person received 50 cents, and Xu Yuncong's pocket money was almost gone.
As Luo Yan and her group approached the back door, they saw Chen Yuanshan standing there.
"Run!" Xiao Xiu grabbed Luo Yan and turned to run.
Yang Tie and Leng Jian, not understanding what was going on, instinctively followed suit.
Knowing that the two little rascals wouldn't listen, Chen Yuanshan took off chasing after them.
Luo Yan and Xiao Xiu ran faster than rabbits, but Yang Tie and Leng Jian were unlucky. They were caught by Chen Yuanshan not far away and sent home to be dealt with by their parents.
Xu Yuncong and his henchmen laughed until their stomachs hurt when they saw Yang Tie and Leng Jian being dragged away miserably by Chen Yuanshan.
Back home, Xiao Xiu asked Luo Yan why she wanted to go down the mountain.
Luo Yan, "A gift."
Didn't you say you wanted to give Grandma a wedding gift? Let's make a gift by hand, it won't cost any money but it'll be a thoughtful gesture.
"We didn't collect any?"
Who knew that one day we would need to use birch bark that can't be eaten? Luo Yan shook her head.
When Chen Yuanshan returned and saw that the two little ones were both there, he didn't report them, but just gave them a warning look not to be naughty anymore.
Luo Yan's eyes lit up the moment she saw Chen Yuanshan, "Daddy Chen..."
Chen Yuanshan's eyes crinkled with delight at being called out, "What do you need your father Chen to do this time? Speak up."
"Cough cough cough..." Luo Shicheng looked up from behind his senior year physics book. "Yanyan, tell Dad what you want to do."
"Old Luo, you've gone too far. My daughter contacted me first, what are you trying to take?"
Luo Shicheng: "With me here, we don't need you."
