Salted Fish has been out studying for over four months, and Xu Sanye feels like the kid has been gone for a year.
Salted Fish is coming home to take a self-study exam, and he couldn't be happier; just yesterday, he asked Old Qian to prepare a few extra dishes, and today, early in the morning, he and Old Zhang rushed together in vehicle 002 to Bailong Port Passenger Pier to pick the kid up.
Zhang Junyan and Liu Xinmin heard the news and came, and the four of them stood on the dunship at the passenger pier, chatting idly while waiting for the Bai Shen to dock.
"This one has been gone for over four months; do you guys think Salted Fish has grown taller?"
"I don't know about growing taller, but one thing is for sure; he must be darker than before."
"Blowing in the sea breeze on the ship every day, even the fairest person would turn dark."
"Being darker is good; it adds a manly stature."
