Back on shore, they quickly carried the cleaned fish and shrimp home.
Give some of everything to Wang Nuannuan and deliver it to her home!
After seeing this, Grandma Wang chuckled and said, "This girl went out to sea with Sister Meilan again?"
Wang Nuannuan smiled and nodded: "Yes! We're in for a treat tonight!"
Hearing the noise outside, Tang Zheng quickly came out and helped lift the fish box: "Wow, our Nuannuan is amazing! She even has a Napoleon wrasse!"
Wang Nuannuan explained, "This was caught by Sister-in-law Liu! Her 'newbie protection period' was really impressive; she caught the most and the best fish!"
Tang Zheng laughed heartily: "That's strange! When I go fishing with Meilan, I always catch a lot, which makes me really want to go fishing too! Now your mother wants to go fishing whenever she has free time! I don't think it's a bad thing, but I think it's windy now and it's easy to catch a cold!"
Grandma Wang smiled and said, "It's rare for Liwen to enjoy an activity, so don't stop her! You should accompany her, but if you're busy, let Liwen play with her friends!"
Tang Zheng raised an eyebrow: "Mom, I'm not stopping you, I'm just thinking that it's not good for us to always hitch a ride on Meilan and Xiaoyu's yacht! I'm thinking of ordering a yacht for Liwen!"
Grandma Wang and Wang Nuannuan were both stunned when they heard this, and then looked at Tang Zheng speechlessly.
Grandma Wang knew that Tang was willing to part with his daughter, but she didn't expect him to be this willing.
“Even if our family is rich, we can’t spend money like this! I’ve heard that a yacht costs tens of millions just to buy! And the cost of hiring someone to operate and maintain it for a year is several million!”
"Besides, Liwen likes going out to sea, but that's because she likes going out with Meilan and the others! She wouldn't dare to go out alone, and it wouldn't be fun either! So you should give up on that idea and buy something else as a gift!"
Wang Nuannuan quickly chimed in, "Dad, we all know you're good to Mom! But let's forget about buying a yacht! Like today, when I went out to sea on the yacht with Sister Meilan, Grandma wasn't worried at all! It's the same with Mom!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" Grandma Wang nodded quickly. "It turns out this child has great fortune at sea. I feel completely at ease letting her go out to sea with Meilan! On the contrary, I would be absolutely worried about Liwen and Nuannuan going out to sea alone!"
Seeing the strong opposition from his mother-in-law and stepdaughter, Tang Zheng had no choice but to give up: "I thought I'd buy it because I saw that you both liked it!"
“You don’t need to buy it even if you like it!” Wang Nuannuan said with a smile. “Sister Meilan likes a lively atmosphere, especially when she goes out to sea. The more people there are, the happier she is! It’s a good opportunity for us to get together, chat and laugh, and have fun.”
Tang Zheng stroked his chin: "But we keep hitching a ride on Meilan's yacht, and I feel a little embarrassed!"
Grandma Wang thought for a moment and said, "That makes sense! Then you can have your company act as the yacht's legal counsel. If any disputes arise, you can help handle them for free! You can also be responsible for insurance claims and such! How does that sound?"
Tang Zheng was surprised: "Using my expertise is no problem at all! I'll talk to Meilan about it later!"
Grandma Wang nodded: "Okay! Actually, what we need most in the village is a kind of attitude! It shows that we remember Meilan's kindness and want to give back!"
Tang Zheng laughed: "That makes perfect sense! By the way, there's a bilingual international school in the city that offered me a place and asked if I wanted to send my child there?"
When Grandma Wang heard this, her eyes almost popped out of their sockets: "Aren't the schools on our island good enough? Can't they accommodate your son?"
Tang Zheng chuckled awkwardly: "Of course not! I went to check out the schools there, and both the facilities and the teaching staff are excellent! They not only have the essence of exam-oriented education, but also the model of Western elite education."
Wang Nuannuan suddenly remembered the conversation between her sister Xiaoyu and her sister Meilan last week: "Dad, I don't think you need to take your brother to school at all! Xiaoyu is planning to transfer her two children back to school! Compared to the Ye family, are we really that rich?"
"Impossible! Sister Xiaoyu's father-in-law and husband personally came to inspect the primary and secondary schools on the island, and they're currently building a large-scale kindergarten! So it includes education from kindergarten to junior high! Xiaolingdang was attending the best bilingual international school in the city for kindergarten, but Sister Xiaoyu discovered the problem and has now transferred her to a public school. Once the schools here are built, she'll transfer her over!"
Upon hearing this, Tang Zheng was slightly taken aback: "Sigh, how come I didn't know about this?"
Wang Nuannuan smiled and said, "Dad, you're so busy with work! Sometimes you work late and stay in the city. We talked about these things over dinner, so it's normal that you didn't know!"
Grandma Wang nodded: "Yes! Children's education is a big deal. Since you have this idea, we won't stop you! But I suggest you think it over carefully!"
Tang Zheng stroked his chin: "If that's the case, then I do need to investigate further! I need to ask Xiaoyu why she wanted to transfer the child here?"
Wang Nuannuan blinked: "Dad, actually I can tell you! Look at my grades. When I went to high school in the city, I was among the top students in the best high school! In addition, there are many top students among those who graduated from junior high school on our island and went to high school in the city, and there are also average students. However, it doesn't mean that their qualities are not outstanding just because their grades are not outstanding."
"You can see them in all kinds of arts competitions and activities! Especially in our year, those who didn't do well in academics pursued sports, art, and music! Two of them even participated in the National Games and won gold medals in swimming!"
"There are basketball and soccer games too! Graduates from our school are well-rounded in moral character, intelligence, physical fitness, aesthetics, and labor skills! Our teachers are even more interesting; they praise the students who go on to our school for being good-looking!"
Tang Zheng stroked his chin: "No wonder! Recently, some big bosses I know have been asking me about the schools on the island! I told them that the island is special, and children who are not from the island or are not military personnel cannot study there. They were quite disappointed at the time!"
At this moment, Wang Liwen brought out fruit: "Of course! The schools on our island are amazing now! From the third grade to the ninth grade, in this final exam, we had a joint exam with schools in the city. Only the fourth grade ranked second, while all the other grades ranked first in the city! When our Principal Li went to the city for a meeting, he held his head high and walked with a swagger."
“Many people outside want to send their children to study on our island, but because of some mandatory regulations, no matter who complains, it’s useless, so they have to give up! But then some ‘clever’ people came up with the idea of transferring some of our teachers away. Our Principal Li was furious when he came back from the meeting!”
“Except for some teachers who need to return to the city due to family reasons, the other teachers are unwilling to leave and want to continue teaching on the island! Because the educational atmosphere here is particularly good, the teacher-student relationship is very harmonious, and the relationship between teachers and parents is also very good.”
