Chapter 1386 Only She Likes
Once aboard the yacht, Xu Chongyang turned on all the lights and began working on his problems.
Liu Meilan felt the rocking of the fishing boat and advised, "I'll take you to school tomorrow and tell your teacher. Don't rush, start doing your homework now! Although the lights are bright, it's hard on your eyes to see the questions clearly on this rocking fishing boat!"
Xu Chongyang smiled, put away the test paper, and said, "Thank you, Aunt Meilan! I'll talk to the teacher tomorrow, so you don't need to take me there! You've been so busy with your own work and my family's affairs these past few days! It's been very hard on you!"
"Can you really handle it yourself?" Liu Meilan raised an eyebrow.
Xu Chongyang nodded, "Okay! My mom already told the teacher when she asked for leave for me. Tomorrow I just need to explain to the teacher that I'll be back late tonight and won't have time to do it! The teacher will forgive me!"
"Alright!" Liu Meilan nodded. "Does your Uncle Hu know this family?"
Xu Chongyang nodded, "Although I don't know much, I feel good about them! Genuine feelings can't be faked; they really want to acknowledge Uncle Hu! For Uncle Hu, it's actually a kind of psychological comfort! I used to think that children needed elders, but today I feel that adults need them too!"
Liu Meilan agreed, "That's right! Parents are where we come from, and children are where we return! Only with orderly inheritance can we have a long and prosperous future."
When I got home, it was already past 9 o'clock. Liu Meilan urged me to wash up and get some rest.
Grandpa Liu and Professor Xie had been waiting for Liu Meilan. After hearing her recount the day's family reunion, they breathed a sigh of relief. "Hu Jian's hardships have finally come to an end. I'm relieved. You should get some rest too!"
After escorting Grandpa Liu back to his bedroom, Liu Meilan began calling Fu Chen. "You're in the army, so don't worry too much. Everything is fine in Fujian."
Fu Chen smiled, "The hardships of the past have been transformed into the happiness of the present!"
"Yes!" Liu Meilan chuckled, "Just do good deeds and don't worry about the future!"
Fu Chen said gently, "I have a mission the day after tomorrow, so don't call me! I'll call you again after I finish my mission and come back!"
"Okay, I'll wait for your call!" Liu Meilan wanted to say more, but all the words she wanted to say came down to just four: "Come back safely!"
"Mm," Fu Chen replied.
The next day, Lu Yiwen and Cui Wenfang were in good spirits after a night's rest. After breakfast, they asked Hu Jian to take them to see the apartment in that neighborhood.
Liu Meilan has already spoken to the people there, and if Hu Jian brings people to buy a house, they can get a 9% discount.
Lu Yiwen was very generous this time, buying five houses in the same neighborhood.
The largest house was transferred directly to Hu Jian's name and given to him.
After yesterday, Hu Jian didn't refuse. He accepted the house, intending to use it for his parents' retirement, and didn't waste any more words.
Although Lu Qinqin refused, Lu Yiwen still bought a smaller house for his daughter as a private property and gifted it to Lu Qinqin separately.
Although Karu didn't lack the house, he couldn't refuse his in-laws' kind offer.
One apartment will be for the elderly couple to live in, while the other two will remain in his name and will be passed down to his two younger sons.
These five houses almost depleted Lu Yiwen's savings, but he felt it was worth it.
Having left in a sorry state back then, I now return home in glory and with honor, and the sense of satisfaction I feel is beyond words.
Moreover, Shenzhen is developing rapidly, and house prices will continue to rise in the future.
Although they wanted to stay longer, they also had a farm at home, and many fruits were ready for harvest, especially durians.
After staying here for a week, I had to go back.
Hu Jian and Zhang Xiufang saw them off at the airport. "Mom and Dad, you must come visit us whenever you have time!"
"We'll come over when the farming season is over!" Lu Yiwen smiled. "We'll trouble you to take good care of the durian imports! We'll even give you a 10% cut of the profits!"
Hu Jian smiled broadly, "Okay, I'll definitely try my best!"
Lu Qinqin and her two younger brothers also hugged their elder brother and sister-in-law, bidding them farewell one by one.
Watching them enter the waiting room, Hu Jian breathed a sigh of relief, "Things are finally over!"
Zhang Xiufang smiled and gently patted her husband Hu Jian's back, "Are you happy now?"
"That feels so good!" Hu Jian laughed heartily. "I feel so clear-headed and at ease, like never before! Thank you, my wife, for always being there for me no matter what happens!"
Zhang Xiufang smiled gently, "Of course, because we're family!"
The matter in Fujian came to a successful conclusion. The import and export company continued to import high-quality Golden Pillow durians from Thailand, which indeed became an instant hit in major cities such as Shenzhen.
Durian, priced at just over ten yuan per kilogram, instantly dominated the high-end fruit market.
You should know that apples only cost a few cents a pound now, and watermelons only cost a couple of cents a pound.
Those who love it adore it. Those who dislike it treat it like dirt. Opinions are polarized, but that doesn't change the fact that durian is a high-end fruit.
Because of the sales channels here, Lu Yiwen only wholesales two types of fruit: imported bananas in bulk and imported durians.
Because he has been in this industry for twenty years and has a wealth of experience, the fruits he buys are of very high quality and at fair prices.
Although some of Lu Yiwen's colleagues were jealous, the local Karu family was not to be trifled with.
After all, Karu also invested in the company and put in a lot of effort in dealing with these unfair competition practices.
They made a lot of money just from importing bananas and durians that year.
Liu Meilan loves durian, making her an oddball in the entire Liu family.
Everyone else kept their distance when they smelled durian.
Even Fu Chen, who firmly believed he loved Liu Meilan completely, couldn't bring himself to kiss her after seeing her eat durian.
Liu Meilan, this "bad" woman, often kissed Fu Chen after eating durian, which always frightened Fu Chen and brought a lot of fun to their married life.
With Hu Jian going on business trips for her, and the children growing up and becoming less dependent on her, Liu Meilan started going out to sea on large fishing boats again, enjoying the wonderful feeling of drifting on the sea.
Every catch of seafood brought Liu Meilan great joy.
Every time she speaks, Liu Meilan gets as excited as a child, and her laughter always brings joy to people.
Seeing Liu Meilan like this, Sister Chen was delighted. "Meilan came aboard with us, and I feel so energetic!"
The others nodded quickly, "Yes, Meilan's luck is still so strong. Every time, every net is so big!"
As the captain, Xu Kaifa felt all the pressure disappear the moment he saw Liu Meilan going out to sea with him.
Because he knew that he could easily return home with a full load on this trip.
The wonderful life continued until one night Liu Meilan received a satellite phone call.
Liu Meilan was startled. If it weren't an emergency, the phone wouldn't have rung at all. She quickly answered, "This is Liu Meilan!"
Liu Zhengtao's voice came from the other end of the phone, "No matter where you are now, return to base as soon as possible."
Liu Meilan was taken aback. "Dad, something happened to Fu Chen?"
