Reborn peasant girl: I became rich overnight by traveling to sea

Chapter 6
Chang Pingning on the side was watching Ye Xiuying picking the seafood in the barrel, trying to remember what sizes could be sold in the town. For a moment, she didn't realize what it meant when Ye Xiuying asked Guo Bomo to buy a bed frame.

At the same time, Chang Pingning felt Guo Bomo coming to his side.

"Did you tell mother?" Guo Bomo lowered his voice deliberately.

Chang Pingning nodded, and then added in a low voice: "I just happened to say it, nothing special - do you still have enough money on hand?"

Chang Pingning was originally worried that Guo Bomo would misunderstand that she was complaining, but unexpectedly Guo Bomo smiled at her.

"I told dad and he gave me some money." Guo Bomo said, not paying attention to lowering his voice for a while.

"Hmph, how much money can he make from selling sea fish today?" Ye Xiuying heard the conversation between her eldest son and her daughter-in-law. She put the iron pliers aside and took out a cloth bag from her arms, "Ning Ning and I sent it to ' That shop's two barrels of seafood sold for a lot of money." As he spoke, he opened the cloth bag.

Seeing this, Chang Pingning excused herself to clean up the room, turned around and walked towards her and Guo Bomo's house.

In the last life, when Chang Pingning accidentally broke into the scene where Dong's mother gave Dong Xiuyuan money, she was severely scolded by Dong's mother, scolding her that only the money could be seen through the two holes under her eyebrows.

Although Dong Xiuyuan later gave her a few pennies to buy snacks, Chang Pingning would take the initiative to avoid the mother and son after that time when they encountered them taking money.Therefore, the money of the Dong family in the previous life was always in the hands of Dong's mother.

Affected by the influence of his previous life, Chang Pingning thought that he had just married into the Guo family, and he also needed to avoid suspicion when it came to money.Back in the house, Chang Pingning prepared to tidy up the mattress that had been laid on the floor last night so that it would be easier to put the new bed frame later.

The wooden door of the house was pushed open with a creak, and Chang Pingning turned around and saw Ye Xiuying walking into the house.

"Girl Ning is a diligent person." Ye Xiuying moved the debris on the low cabinet next to her so that Chang Pingning could put the packed mattress on it, and then talked about paying money to the public school.

Because there are still three boys in the Guo family, plus An An, a girl, only the eldest is getting married now, and it is far from the time when the family will be separated. Therefore, after Chang Pingning and Guo Bomo make money, they still need to give half of the money to Guo's mother.

The two barrels of seafood they sent to the Liu family in the morning were sold for a total of 430 Wen.Ye Xiuying gave Guo Bomo 150 Wen to buy a bed frame, of which [-] Wen was Chang Pingning's money for a bucket of seafood, and [-] Wen was from the father-in-law.

"Thank you, mother!" Chang Pingning, who was used to Mrs. Dong's way of managing money, heard Ye Xiuying tell her clearly about the distribution of the family's money for the first time, "I'll make lunch!"

Chang Pingning speeded up making the bed and swept aside the splintered pieces of wood on the ground.

"What's there to be thankful for? We're all one family." Ye Xiuying waved her hand to Chang Pingning, "Don't be in a hurry to clean up and cook. The boss thought that I just picked out a few seafood and couldn't sell them for the price, so he took the money and went out to town. It’s on. It’s because my family wasn’t prepared before, so you two have to lay the floor on your wedding night.”

Ye Xiuying sighed as she spoke.

"Mom, isn't this a good thing?" Chang Pingning was still in a happy state when Guo's mother shared her money, and wanted to say some nice words to flatter her. Soon, she noticed Ye Xiuying's joking eyes.

Chang Pingning reacted and realized that what he said sounded like he was looking forward to something. His face heated up, and he picked up the broken wood lying next to him and walked out of the room quickly.

"Mom, I'm going to chop wood in the yard."

There was only a little girl named Guo Ling'an in the yard, squatting next to a big pot, poking at the clams in the pot with a branch.

"Why is An'an playing here alone?" Chang Pingning looked at the four-year-old little sister of the Guo family, feeling close to her for no reason. Especially when he called her by her nickname, he always thought of his well-behaved daughter in his previous life.

"Mom won't let me go out." Guo Ling'an looked at the sister-in-law in front of him and sighed like a little adult, "Mom and dad told us to avoid 'that house'. Alas, so I can only play with the clams at home." After that, I poked the open clam in the pot a few more times.

Chang Pingning didn't understand the connection, but after thinking about it, he took the wood to the corner of the yard to chop firewood, and reminded Guo Ling'an to play in a shady place.

Ye Xiuying must have heard the conversation in the yard. She walked out of the room and brought some clams to Guo Lingan and asked her to play with them.He came to Chang Pingning again, asked her to put the wood aside, and took her to deal with the seafood at home.Chang Pingning imitated Ye Xiuying's handling of seafood, and asked curiously, why not let An An go out to play?The two boys at home were let out and ran around.

Unexpectedly, the Liu family who had been exiled heard Ye Xiuying complain.

At first, they heard from the village chief that a family was exiled to Guojia Village. The people in the village thought they were some vicious men, and the children of each family were not allowed to go out.

Later, it was discovered that there were many women and elderly people in the Liu family, and they only had one little boy with them.People in Guojiacun believe that little girls cannot go out to play. The most they can do is run errands and deliver messages.

Hearing this, Chang Pingning raised his chin and pointed in the direction of the Liu family: "What exactly did their family commit? Did the village chief say anything about it?"

"Who knows." Ye Xiuying shook her head, as if remembering something, she lowered her head and continued to handle the seafood in her hands.

Chang Pingning saw Ye Xiuying pry open the black thorn shell on the outside of the sea urchin, revealing the yellow orange petals inside.Only then did Chang Pingning realize that the sea urchin fried rice she had made had been processed in advance by the cook at Dong's house.

"Mom, I'm going to get a bowl." Chang Pingning stood up immediately, "I'll make sea urchin fried rice for lunch." He winked at Ye Xiuying.

Ye Xiuying usually eats sea urchin raw, and this is the first time she has heard of sea urchin fried rice.

Until noon, when the Guo family ate sea urchin fried rice at the dinner table, they all praised the sea urchin fried rice on the table. Even the father-in-law Guo Dayong served three bowls of rice in a row.

This made Ye Xiuying complain that as a father, he didn't even know how to leave some for the boss.

Chang Pingning couldn't help but laugh when she saw the Guo family liked it, and said it didn't matter, she had already left a meal for Guo Bomo.

While the family was talking, Guo Bomo's voice sounded from outside the door.

"What did Ning Ning leave for me? My second brother came to help me and unload the bed frame." After Guo Bomo finished calling people, he walked away again.

Chang Pingning saw his father-in-law Guo Dayong holding his second brother Guo Zhongzhou down and walking out of the yard.The two people moved a bed frame from outside the yard, temporarily placed it in the yard, and then went to the big table in the main room to eat.

"Brother, eat quickly! The sea urchin fried rice made by my sister-in-law is delicious!" Guo Zhongzhou greeted.

"Don't worry, I still have some left on the stove." Chang Pingning said.

Soon, not only was all the sea urchin fried rice served on the table, but even the portion specially reserved for Guo Bomo was almost taken away.

After dinner, Chang Pingning was about to wash the dishes, but Ye Xiuying held her down and said that she was a great contributor to the delicious lunch she cooked, so just let her sit down.

Guo Bomo also pulled Chang Pingning and told her that he had something to tell her.

Chang Pingning thought it was something about the bed frame and followed Guo Bomo to the yard.

Unexpectedly, Guo Bomo said: "I have inquired. I will follow you back to your home the day after tomorrow. There is a boat going out to sea the day after tomorrow."

Chang Pingning heard the term "going to sea" for the first time and didn't understand why Guo Bomo's expression was so serious: "How long will it take to come back?"

"If it goes quickly, it will take ten days." Guo Bomo looked at a scratch on the bed frame, "If it goes slowly, it will take a month."
