Professor Xie commented: "It's a little different from the local ones, but they are all delicious."

"Really? I think it's delicious too." Liu Meilan said with a smile, "Originally Fu Chen wanted to take me to eat Yangtze River knife fish, but it was very scarce and we didn't have time, so we didn't get to eat it." (Photo)

Liu Yiwen asked softly, "Is it expensive?"

There is no cheap delicious fish, and since it is rare, it must be expensive.

Liu Meilan nodded: "It's quite expensive, but it's even harder to find fresh ones. I didn't get to eat it this time, which is a bit regrettable."

Professor Xie replied: "As long as something tastes good, it will soon be reduced in number or even become extinct."

"Yes, the local boss also said that it is harder to buy than before." Liu Meilan said, "It may be because more people eat it and the price is high. I didn't have time to eat it. When I go there again next year, I will order it in advance and I will be able to eat it."

Liu Yiwen smiled and said, "Okay, next year when I'm free, I'll take you to Jinling for a trip."

"Let's talk about next year's affairs next year." Professor Xie chuckled. "You still want to get engaged during the summer vacation and get married at the end of the year. Maybe Miao Xiang will be pregnant next year. You should not go anywhere and stay at home."

Liu Yiwen suddenly found a problem: "Mom, I'm getting engaged during the summer vacation and getting married at the end of the year. Fu Chen also wants to get married at the end of the year. Isn't it a bit urgent?"

Professor Xie thought for a moment, and then said, "There is an order of seniority. You are the elder brother, so of course you should get married first. Meilan is the younger sister, so of course she should come later. Anyway, we are engaged, and the Fu family can't argue with us, so we can postpone the marriage until next summer. Meilan, what do you think?"

Liu Meilan smiled: "Okay!"

Deep down, Professor Xie still wanted to keep his daughter at home for a while longer.

After dinner, Liu Meilan came to the company the next day.

Tang Xiaoyu told Liu Meilan about Liu Ruoshi's death: "Although it's not right to say this now, it's actually fortunate that Liu Ruoshi died in Hong Kong Island, far away from us. Otherwise, someone would have come to blame us!"

Liu Meilan agreed with Tang Xiaoyu's words. When the action took place, Rene Liu was in Hong Kong Island, which was indeed a bit troublesome, but it also provided evidence that they were not involved.

"Yes, Liu Fugui and Yang Xiaolian must be arguing with Ye Lingling's company over money now, right?" Liu Meilan asked, changing the subject.

Tang Xiaoyu chuckled, "You guessed wrong, then. Ye Lingling fooled Liu Ruoshi's parents. It was mainly about the compensation from Hong Kong Island, about 380,000. She added 20,000, a total of 400,000, and they happily accepted it."

"Liu Xiangbei, on the other hand, has studied a few more years. According to my investigation, Liu Xiangbei has already hired a lawyer to sue Liu Ruoshi for her previous shares, album copyright, and ownership of her new songs."

Liu Meilan was startled, and then she thought of Liu Xiangbei, who was very smart and had gained a lot of benefits since he was a child: "Liu Xiangbei should have asked for a lot of money at the beginning, but Ye Lingling didn't agree."

Tang Xiaoyu nodded: "10 million for shares and 1 million for copyrights, but we haven't reached an agreement yet. Ye Lingling is reluctant to part with the money, so a one-time buyout would be the least troublesome."

Liu Meilan mocked: "If you are reluctant to spend money, you will have a lot of trouble. It depends on who is better."

Liu Ruoshi is dead, and her confidant is gone.

Liu Meilan didn't care except for the possibility of a killer lurking in the dark.

"Is there anything in the company that needs my attention recently?" Liu Meilan asked.

Tang Xiaoyu thought about it and shook his head: "No! The jade mine in Qing Province is progressing smoothly. Wang Lemei called me and said that it is a rich mine with great mining value. We are negotiating with them!"

Liu Meilan looked at Tang Xiaoyu's belly: "Are you tired? If you have something to do, let Xiaohan do it."

"Yes, since you mentioned Xiao Han, I have to tell you about the follow-up." Tang Xiaoyu chuckled, "Not long after you went out to sea, your second brother and I discussed organizing a social gathering here. Xiao Han went and met Lu Keyao, the deputy captain of the underwater salvage company. The young man is very strong, 1.9 meters tall, and has wheat-colored skin."

"You like him?" Liu Meilan was stunned. "Where is this guy from? What's he like?"

Tang Xiaoyu blinked and smiled secretly, "He is strong and looks fierce, which is quite intimidating, but people who know him know that Lu Keyao has a gentle personality. He is from a mountainous province in the interior of China and has four brothers. He has already bought a house here and plans to settle down here."

Liu Meilan breathed a sigh of relief: "As long as Xiao Han likes him, it's fine. He's a good person, but his family background is not good. He should be more cautious about marriage, so as not to jump from one pit of fire to another."

Tang Xiaoyu nodded: "I also advised Xiao Han, but when Lu Keyao was sending Xiao Han home, he met Xiao Han's two brothers who came to make trouble again, and this time Xiao Han's parents were there, insisting that Xiao Han give up the house. Lu Keyao did not take action against Xiao Han's parents, but he dealt with Xiao Han's two brothers. From then on, Xiao Han and Lu Keyao confirmed their relationship. Lu Keyao will pick up Xiao Han after get off work tomorrow. Oh my, look, Lu Keyao is here to send Xiao Han to work!"

Liu Meilan followed Tang Xiaoyu's gaze and was slightly startled. She had good eyesight and could see Lu Keyao's appearance clearly. He was not very handsome, but indeed a bit fierce. When he smiled, he looked a bit silly, which was a cute contrast.

"No wonder it progressed so quickly, he is indeed different from the local men." Liu Meilan said with a smile, "I wish Xiao Han happiness."

Tang Xiaoyu chuckled: "This world is still too harsh on women! If you have something good, you will be coveted."

Liu Meilan sighed, she saw it more clearly: "Apart from the so-called civilized cloak of this society, in fact, it is still the law of the jungle, the survival of the fittest. If Xiao Han can beat up her two brothers and has enough strength, will she still be bullied?"

Tang Xiaoyu saw more: "Who says it's not true? In places with sound laws, women are more protected, but even here, the law doesn't take all aspects into account. It's actually very unfair, just like my parents spoil me in my hometown, but there is one thing I will never get."

"What?" Liu Meilan asked.

Tang Xiaoyu replied: "As long as you have sons, you can get a homestead on the island. My brothers all have homesteads, but I don't. My parents said that they will give me their house in the future. Although I have no shortage of homesteads, isn't it unfair to compare them like this?"

Liu Meilan was stunned: "You make sense, it's the same on Sanlian Island. Girls don't have homesteads, but boys can. So, with the advancement of urbanization, many girls will be more willing to come to the city, after all, they can buy a house and the property rights with money."

She thought of the tens of millions of leftover men and women she often talked about in her previous life, and that most of the leftover men were concentrated in rural areas, while the leftover women were concentrated in cities. These two groups had no intersection and were destined to be left alone. The root cause turned out to be here.
