A stunning mermaid dressed in the 1980s, the whole family lined up to pamper her endlessly.

Chapter 239 Method
There's no rush to find the remaining houses.

First, we need to figure out how to deal with the Chen family.

Yun Jiao and her fourth brother went to take pictures at the three-courtyard house and also went to get something to eat.

She discovered that there were many delicious things sold in these old alleyways.

Besides soy milk!

Meanwhile, Yunlin Hai and Mu Lao discussed solutions at home.

"Candied hawthorns, selling candied hawthorns!"

A vendor selling candied hawthorns carried a straw target and called out his wares in the alley.

Yun Jiao grabbed her fourth brother and chased after them.

I want candied hawthorns.

This looks delicious.

"Alright, little one, how many skewers do you want?"

Yun Jiao: "I want one."

"What?"

A few minutes later, the candied hawthorn vendor squinted as he counted his money. Yun Chenbei, carrying a bunch of candied hawthorns, went to the Liu family with his sister.

"Grandpa Liu, is Grandma Liu home?"

Yun Jiao licked the sugar coating off her candied hawthorn and politely knocked on the door.

She knocked twice, but no one answered the door. Yun Jiao, with a candied hawthorn in her mouth, estimated the height of the wall and was just about to try to climb over when the door opened.

Yun Jiao's eyes immediately showed a hint of regret.

She wanted to try and see if she could get over it.

Old Liu glanced at the two of them and said, "Come in."

"Grandpa Liu, please have some candied hawthorn. It's sweet and sour and very delicious."

Yun Jiao followed behind the old man, pointing at the candied hawthorns that her fourth brother was carrying.

Old Liu refused: "No need, only children eat that. I'm too old to eat it."

"Have you lost all your teeth? Then you really can't eat."

"You're the one who's lost all your teeth! My teeth are perfectly fine, I can still eat for over ten years!"

The old man and the child entered the house amidst all the bickering.

Grandma Liu was sitting upright at the stone table under the jujube tree, brewing tea with fluid and graceful movements.

It's a pleasure to look at.

Yun Jiao, ever the friendly type, walked over and sat down on the stone bench next to her.

"Grandma Liu, can you eat candied hawthorns? I bought a lot, here's one for you, you can take another one after you finish it."

Yun Chenbei arranged the candied hawthorns.

Grandma Liu smiled and said, "Thank you, Jiaojiao, but I won't eat it."

"Oh, what are you doing, grandma?"

"Make tea."

"Come on, have a taste."

She handed Yun Jiao a teacup, and the tea inside smelled delicious.

The temperature was just right, and Yun Jiao picked it up and drank it all in one gulp.

Then smack your lips.

"Hmph, a cow chewing on a peony!"

Yun Jiao looked around and asked, "Where? Where are the cows? Grandma, do you still raise cows?"

Immediately, both Granny Liu and Yun Chenbei couldn't help but laugh.

Yun Chenbei explained, "This is a word; it doesn't contain the character for 'cow'."

"What does that mean? I'm not a cow either."

She muttered in dissatisfaction.

Grandma Liu said, "Alright, Jiaojiao is still a little child."

She said gently to Yun Jiao, "Jiao Jiao, don't drink your tea too fast. You can only appreciate its flavor if you drink it slowly."

The old man taught her from the side, and Yun Jiao learned very diligently.

It was Yun Jiao's first time drinking tea, and she wasn't used to the slightly bitter taste.

My first thought was that it didn't taste as good as sugar water.

But after drinking it twice with Granny Liu, I really did experience the aftertaste she described.

"If you get used to drinking tea, you'll only like it more and more."

She went to her room and took out half a can of tea.

"I'll give you this half-can of tea."

Yun Jiao took it, and when she opened it, the tea leaves inside exuded a rich aroma. She didn't refuse, saying, "Thank you, Grandma Liu."

"Grandma Liu, may my fourth brother and I wander around a bit?"

"of course can."

After getting permission, Yun Chenbei took Yun Jiao to wander around the courtyard, taking pictures from time to time.

After taking enough photos of the buildings, Yun Jiao then pestered the two elderly people to take photos together, or just the two of them alone.

After taking the photos, Yun Jiao left two strings of candied hawthorns and skipped away with her fourth brother.

Yun Chenbei chased after her, his voice filled with helplessness as he advised, "Jiaojiao, stop eating. This is already your fifth skewer. Eating too many will ruin your teeth."

Yun Jiao retorted, "No way! My teeth are perfectly fine; I could bite a brick off!"

They went to a photo studio first and asked the owner to help them develop the photos.

Then Yun Jiao dragged Yun Chenbei, who looked very reluctant, to go shopping.

Yun Chenbei: Can't recognize faces, doesn't want to talk, doesn't want to go out...

"what is this?"

Yun Jiao pinched her nose and stood in front of a food stall selling stinky tofu.

She was shocked. "Do humans eat shit?"
The owner immediately called out, "Little one, would you like a serving of stinky tofu? It smells bad but tastes amazing!"

Yun Jiao hesitated, seeing other people buying things around her.

Curiosity, curiosity, curiosity...

Out of curiosity, I ended up buying one anyway.

And thoughtfully, she gave the first bite to her brother.

Yun Chenbei: …………

Yun Jiao held up the stinky tofu and gave her brother a quick wink, urging him to eat it.

Yun Chenbei: I don't want to eat.

"Brother~"

In the end, the unlucky Yun Chenbei bowed his head in response to the repeated calls of "brother."

I took a bite, and it tasted pretty good?
"Yes, that's good."

Yun Jiao then put a bite into her mouth.

It does smell bad, but after one bite, the bursting stinky tofu actually tastes pretty good.

Shaking her head, Yun Jiao ate until her cheeks were round and full, and then went to the next restaurant.

"what is this?"

"Donkey roll, would you like some, little one?"

Yun Jiao nodded: "Yes, yes, yes..."

We strolled around and ate our way through the area.

Whether it's pastries, snacks, or hot food, she has to try them all.

If you think it tastes good, buy an extra portion to take home.

Then... after this trip, Yun Chenbei and Yun Jiao returned home with large and small bags.

"Oh my, why did you bring so much food? Are you sure you can finish it all?"

The happiest person was Yun Xiaoliu, who gave Yun Jiao a bear hug as soon as she put her things down.

"Sis, why didn't you take me with you when you went to buy food!"

Yun Jiao let out a burp; she was a little stuffed.

"Next time, I'll bring Sixth Brother."

Yun Xiaoliu nodded vigorously, then couldn't wait to start eating.

Yun Jiao strolled over to the adults.

Old Wu has also arrived and is currently giving them advice.

"You're not staying here for the time being, right?"

They certainly won't be staying here anytime soon. Fishermen who have lived by the sea their whole lives will find it hard to adjust to suddenly leaving the sea to live in the capital.

Yunlin Hai and his friends still want to buy a big boat to go out to sea to fish.

The family is wealthy now, but that all belongs to Jiaojiao; what does it have to do with them?

Jiaojiao has already bought them houses, so who would be shameless enough to spend her money as if it were their own?

"In that case, you might as well rent out the house."

"Rent it out?"

Old Wu nodded: "We have to choose the right tenant. First of all, they must be able to deal with the Chen family's group of deadbeats, and they also have to be of good character. Otherwise, what if we rent out a house to someone of bad character and they ruin it?"

"Yes, yes, but how do we choose the people?"

Old Wu said, "It's simple, just rent it to veterans. Although we can't guarantee that everyone is a good person, veterans who have received training in the military are definitely much better than others."
