Shen Qian and Xiao Qi exchanged glances and both chuckled softly.
Lian Manman also smiled with pursed lips.
The three of them understood implicitly. After all, Nian Garden was newly built, and the koi in the lotus pond were primarily for decorative purposes. Knowing that Shen Liu wanted to fish, someone below them had bought numerous live fish to stock the pond.
The three children grabbed chopsticks and happily shared a grilled fish. The elder girl Shao Yao was considerate, bringing up fresh tea and two plates of fresh fruit.
"...It's tastier than the ones we grilled ourselves before..." Lian Manman said to Xiao Qi after a couple of bites.
"Yes." Xiao Qi nodded, then turned to Shen Qian, "Brother Xiao Jiu, what seasoning did you use for your family's grilled fish?"
