Chapter 395 Adults are speaking, children shouldn't interrupt.
Chapter 395 When adults are talking, children shouldn't interrupt.
"Kids are all like that. They get spoiled at home, so they tend to be a little willful." Yu Huan smiled and shrugged.
Wang Weiwei was focused on watching the scenery rushing past the window, completely unaware that Uncle Shuai and Aunt Susu were chirping crickets behind her.
Soon, the sightseeing bus arrived at its final stop behind the statue.
Yu Huan carried Wang Weiwei and followed behind as they got off the bus.
Wang Weiwei wrapped one arm around his neck and held the bamboo skewer of the candied hawthorn tightly in the other, occasionally sticking out her little tongue to lick the sugar coating on the candied hawthorn.
She opened her big, round eyes and looked around curiously at the unfamiliar crowd, as if everything around her was full of novelty.
Lin Yourong turned around and wiped her mouth with a tissue, saying gently, "Weiwei, why are you being so well-behaved today? It's not like you at all."
Upon hearing this, Wang Weiwei turned her head and looked down at the gentle eyes between the brim of her hat and her mask.
She replied sweetly in her childish voice, "Mommy said that adults like children who don't cry or fuss. I want handsome uncles to like me!"
After saying that, she hugged Yu Huan's neck tightly.
Yu Huan glanced around, found his direction, and started walking. Hearing Wang Weiwei's words, he reached out and patted her little head, smiling as he said, "Weiwei is such a good girl, of course Uncle likes you."
When Wang Weiwei heard Yu Huan's praise, her eyes smiled like crescent moons.
She gave Yu Huan a quick kiss on the side of his mask and said happily, "I like handsome uncles too!"
When Xing Yujia returned from throwing away the bamboo skewers from the candied hawthorn, she saw this and chimed in, "Weiwei really likes Huan-ge. Ever since Sister Ru taught her to keep a proper distance from boys, her grandfather won't even let her hug him anymore."
Upon hearing this, Wang Weiwei buried her face in Yu Huan's shoulder, feeling somewhat embarrassed, and immediately fell silent.
"Oh, this little girl is so precocious, she can even be shy."
Yu Huan smiled and gently patted Wang Weiwei on the back.
Lin Yourong, following beside Yu Huan, noticed Wang Weiwei's round eyes, which were shyly peeking at her. She couldn't help but smile and say, "Weiwei, you only like handsome uncles? Don't you like aunties?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Weiwei immediately looked up at Lin Yourong.
She released Yu Huan's neck, waved her little hands, and hurriedly said, "No, no, I like Aunt Susu too! Weiwei likes Uncle Shuai and Aunt Susu the most!"
Her face was full of seriousness, as if she was afraid that Lin Yourong might misunderstand.
Yu Huan hugged her tighter, amused by her anxious and eager expression, and thought to herself that human babies are really fun.
He pinched Wang Weiwei's little cheek: "Weiwei, you're so good at talking!"
"So, between me and the handsome uncle, who do you like the most?" Lin Yourong asked with a smile in her voice.
Wang Weiwei bounced up and down with Yu Huan's steps, tilted her head and thought carefully for a moment, then loudly emphasized: "I want to divide my affection equally between Aunt Susu and Uncle Shuai!"
Yu Huan and Lin Yourong exchanged a smile upon hearing Wang Weiwei's reply.
"Weiwei, if your uncle and aunt both give you candy, whose will you take first?" Yu Huan teased her on purpose.
Wang Weiwei blinked her big eyes, her small brows furrowing slightly, as if she were facing a great problem.
Her eyes suddenly lit up, and she shook her little fist: "I'll take Uncle Shuai's in my left hand and Aunt Susu's in my right, I'll take them both!"
Those around Wang Weiwei were amused by her childlike words and laughed.
In a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, the group slowly made their way to the side of the statue.
At this moment, the sunlight poured down, as if draping the statue in a layer of dazzling golden light, making the statue appear exceptionally majestic and magnificent.
Wang Weiwei tilted her small head back, her eyes wide open, her pure gaze filled with amazement.
She exclaimed "Wow!" again, "Handsome uncle, this statue is so tall! I used to see it often by the river, but when I got here... I realized how big it is!"
Yu Huan smiled warmly and said, "Yes, this statue is to commemorate a great figure."
Wang Weiwei nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.
"Haven't you been here before?" Yu Huan asked casually.
Wang Weiwei shook her head hurriedly, and the two little braids behind her head swayed along with them.
“My grandparents brought me here, and we’ve only ever played in the sand.” Wang Weiwei’s childish voice was especially clear and crisp amidst the noise.
Upon hearing this, Yu Huan understood. The beach park was on the other side of Orange Isle, not in the same direction as the statue.
The square in front of the statue today is not as crowded as it would be ten years later; not even a fly could get in, and there is no longer that bustling, lively scene.
At this time, they gathered in groups of three or five in front of the lawn fence.
People chatted quietly or posed in various ways, smiling broadly as they took photos for the camera.
Yu Huan looked around and immediately spotted Luo Ruiyang not far away.
Luo Ruiyang was dressed in casual clothes, with a string of bright orange amber beads hanging from his chest, which gleamed warmly in the sunlight.
He had his arm around a little girl with a ponytail who looked about seven or eight years old, while a burly young man was taking pictures of them with a DSLR camera in front of them.
Yu Huan carefully examined Luo Ruiyang and found that he was not as pot-bellied as she remembered. His belly seemed to have shrunk, and he looked more energetic.
Once he identified his target, he led his group straight there.
As the distance closed, Luo Ruiyang clearly noticed and turned his head to scan the area.
He saw a tall man and woman walking hand in hand, with the man carrying a little girl who looked no more than five years old.
Even though the adults were all wearing masks, Luo Ruiyang recognized the little girl and the slightly chubby girl behind them immediately.
The person we've been waiting for has arrived!
Luo Ruiyang's smiling face immediately broke into a deeper smile. He released his grip on the little girl's hand and walked towards her with unhurried steps.
When they were only a few steps apart, Yu Huan bent down slightly and gently placed Wang Weiwei on the ground.
As soon as he looked up, he saw that Luo Ruiyang had already reached out his hand to him.
"Xiao Yu, it's been a long time." Luo Ruiyang's voice was loud and full of enthusiasm.
Yu Huan quickly reached out and shook his hand tightly, saying gratefully, "Long time no see, Uncle Luo. I'm so sorry to have troubled you today."
Luo Ruiyang laughed heartily and said in a cheerful tone, "Xiao Yu, you're too kind. It's nothing. As long as everyone is alright, that's all that matters."
"Uncle Luo, you are so generous. If this had happened to someone else, it would have been much more troublesome."
Luo Ruiyang waved his hand casually, looked down at Wang Weiwei's young face, and then said, "You brought a child with you. You must have come by sightseeing bus, right?"
“Yes.” “In the past, I really didn’t like walking.” Luo Ruiyang sighed suddenly.
Upon hearing this, Yu Huan smiled brightly and said in a friendly greeting, "Uncle Luo, you seem to have lost some weight, but you look much more energetic than before!"
Luo Ruiyang waved his hand, a hint of emotion on his face, and said helplessly, "Sigh! I was suddenly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, which really scared me. The nutritionist told me to control my diet and exercise more, which may also be due to the disease, and I gradually lost weight."
"Diabetes?" Yu Huan's face showed concern: "Uncle Luo, you must take good care of your health and get proper treatment."
Luo Ruiyang sighed, "When you reach middle age, everything seems to fall apart, but all sorts of ailments start to appear!"
The voice just fell.
He turned to the side and looked at his two children who had followed him, introducing them to Yu Huan: "This is my daughter, Luo Yue—and this is my good-for-nothing son, Luo Hao."
Upon hearing this, Yu Huan's voice, tinged with a smile, came through from beneath her mask: "Hello."
Looking into Yu Huan's gentle eyes, Luo Yue said shyly in a soft voice, "Hello, brother."
"Hello."
Luo Hao pursed his lips tightly, his expression slightly tense, as if he were a taut string.
Yu Huan could tell from the boy's appearance that he must have been lectured by Luo Ruiyang.
However, standing behind his father, he was a head taller than him. Judging from his appearance, he was about fifteen or sixteen years old and probably close to 1.8 meters tall, with a build roughly the size of a smaller version of Yu Songnian.
“Uncle Luo, this is my beloved, Lin Yourong.” Yu Huan introduced, pointing to Lin Yourong who was holding Wang Weiwei’s hand beside him, and then jokingly said, “Uncle Luo, you should have already met the other one, the older one and the younger one.”
Luo Ruiyang smiled and nodded, about to speak—
Wang Weiwei opened her big eyes and looked up at Luo Ruiyang curiously. Suddenly, she said in a clear voice, "Uncle, I'm sorry, my mother bumped into your car. That must be your car, right?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Ruiyang looked down and met her gaze, replying gently, "Little girl, it is indeed my car."
"Mom said that if you do something wrong, you should apologize. I'm saying sorry to you on behalf of my mom!" Wang Weiwei looked very nervous, her little face tense.
Luo Ruiyang seemed amused by Wang Weiwei and quickly said with a smile, "Haha, it's okay, it's okay, the little girl is so sensible."
Upon hearing Luo Ruiyang's response, Wang Weiwei's tense expression gradually relaxed, and a happy smile returned to her face.
Luo Ruiyang suddenly turned his gaze to Lin Yourong, who was covering her face.
See this.
Lin Yourong nodded slightly and greeted her politely, "Hello."
Luo Ruiyang wore a warm smile, but spoke slowly and deliberately: "Miss Lin, your uncle and I used to go to your house for a meal. Back then, you were about the same age as this little girl."
talking.
He glanced at Wang Weiwei and continued with a smile, "She's very clever and knows how to get things done. She had your uncle completely under her thumb and got him to take you to the mall to buy snacks and toys. In the end, your uncle lost his wallet, and I ended up paying the bill."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yourong was slightly taken aback, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
"Is that so?" Yu Huan asked with a laugh.
Luo Ruiyang nodded and said cheerfully, "I was very poor at the time, with only twenty or thirty yuan on me, which was my food expenses for a month. Most of it went into it. I'm a proud person, so when your uncle offered me money, I refused. In the end, I ate salted vegetables and steamed buns for more than a week, so I remember this very clearly."
Looking at his slightly wistful smile, Yu Huan said, "Uncle Luo, back then, vegetables must have cost one or two cents, right? You were so generous!"
At this moment, Wang blinked her big eyes and asked curiously, "Uncle, are the steamed buns delicious?"
Everyone laughed at Wang Weiwei's naive question.
Luo Ruiyang replied gently, "Back then, there weren't as many snacks as there are now, and the steamed buns even tasted sweet."
Wang Weiwei tried hard to understand Luo Ruiyang's words, nodded as if she understood, and then said seriously, "Uncle, I understand what you mean. That is to say, the steamed buns were delicious back then, but the steamed buns are not delicious now."
"The little one is so smart." Luo Ruiyang gave Wang a slight thumbs up, then said to Lin Yourong, "Time flies. You were just this size back then, and now you're so tall."
"I also feel like I've grown up in an instant," Lin Yourong said softly, releasing Wang Weiwei's small hand and taking a step forward.
She handed the candied strawberry stick in her other hand to Luo Yue: "Little sister, this is for you."
Luo Yue hesitated for a moment, raising her right hand, which was hanging by her side, slightly before quickly lowering it again. Then she looked at Luo Ruiyang.
"Your sister gave it to you, so just take it." Luo Ruiyang nodded.
His words trailed off.
Luo Yue happily accepted the strawberry candied hawthorn with both hands and said shyly in a soft voice, "Thank you, sister."
"Sister!" Wang Weiwei suddenly called out, waving the candied hawthorn skewer in her hand, which only had a few pieces on the front, and said in a clear and loud voice, "This strawberry candied hawthorn skewer is so delicious! Sister, you have to try it!"
Luo Yue knew they were calling her.
He glanced down at Wang Weiwei's clear black and white eyes, nodded in acknowledgment, but did not rush to unwrap the plastic wrap. Instead, he held the strawberry in his hand and examined it closely.
The girl from a wealthy family seemed quite fascinated by this.
Luo Ruiyang suddenly took a step back, patted Luo Hao's shoulder lightly, and said with a smile, "Do you want to take a picture? My son is quite good at photography; he's had some formal training."
His tone carried a hint of pride.
Yu Huan was thinking that Luo Ruiyang must be the strict father type, after all, his children were all so afraid of him and had to watch his expression.
Hearing this, he smiled and waved his hand, saying sincerely, "Uncle Luo, we just came out to relax. There are too many people here, which is a bit inconvenient."
Upon hearing this, Luo Ruiyang smiled mischievously and joked, "There are too many people here. Now that you're a leader, it's inconvenient for you to show your face, right?"
Yu Huan smiled helplessly and replied, "Uncle Luo, please stop joking with me."
Luo Ruiyang laughed heartily: "Haha, I understand, I understand. Celebrities value their privacy. Okay, I won't force you to take pictures."
"Dad, what leader? A celebrity?" Luo Hao muttered to himself, carefully examining Yu Huan's handsome features.
Luo Ruiyang turned to the side, smiled, and patted his head: "When adults are talking, kids shouldn't interrupt."
As soon as she said this, Wang Weiwei, who was about to emphasize that Aunt Susu was a big star, rolled her big eyes around, stopped licking the strawberry candied hawthorn, and tightly closed her mouth.
She is very smart.
She knew this uncle must be a very powerful person; even her mother was afraid of him.
