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

In the courtyard of the Guo family, the ladies who had been locked up in the back yard for a long time heard that they were going to the beach soon, and they all happily talked about the seafood they had seen in books.

Chang Pingning and Ye Xiuying saw the excitement of the ladies in the yard, and they knew that this trip was necessary.

Seeing this, Ye Xiuying asked Chang Pingning to go to the yard to get two barrels and pliers so that the girls could go to sea.

Meng Xia on the side heard Ye Xiuying's words and quickly asked Chang Pingning to get a few more, preferably the same number as the number of people here.

Chang Pingning blinked and remembered Meng Xia's previous proposal: let the rich spend their own money to catch the sea.

Could this be the first money Meng Xia asked them to spend?
Chang Pingning thought, and as Meng Xia asked, he took the barrel and pliers from the corner of the yard and placed them in front of the ladies.

Meng Xia nodded with satisfaction and pointed to the wooden barrel on the ground: "Ms. Chang just brought us the tools we need to catch the sea. But these tools are from their family. I make the decision for Aunt Guo and Mrs. Chang. These tools, If you rent it, it’s one thousand cents; but if someone wants to buy it, it’s only five hundred cents.”

As Meng Xia spoke, his eyes swept over the rich ladies standing behind Liu Qingwan one by one. Finally, his eyes fell on the county magistrate and smiled at her.

Chang Pingning couldn't help but gasp after hearing Meng Xia's words. She didn't expect that these tools that she bought for more than ten cents could be sold by Meng Xia for such an astonishing price.

Chang Pingning looked at her mother-in-law. Sure enough, her face was full of disbelief.

As if Meng Xia knew what Chang Pingning was thinking, Chang Pingning heard Meng Xia continue speaking loudly.

"Everyone knows that wooden barrels and iron tongs are not worth the price I just quoted, but what is valuable is that Mrs. Chang and Mrs. Guo know where to go to catch the sea and when the tide goes out. So I want to give you ladies, it is definitely not I will be stingy with these few hundred pennies."

As soon as Meng Xia said this, the ladies who were standing still in the yard began to slowly take off the pockets on their clothes.

Seeing this, Meng Xia blinked happily at Chang Pingning and Ye Xiuying.

After hearing what they could not say, Chang Pingning and Ye Xiuying became even more determined to take these young ladies raised in a boudoir to the sea.

When handfuls of copper coins were handed to Chang Pingning and Ye Xiuying, they secretly decided in their hearts that they should keep an eye on these young ladies when they went to catch the sea.

Thinking of this, Ye Xiuying looked at Meng Xia after accepting the money and told her: "Mrs. Meng, when I go to catch the sea in a while, I also ask all the ladies to follow the arrangements. I said that if you want to leave the beach, you must leave the beach. You must not stay. …”

As Ye Xiuying spoke, she saw another lady who seemed to be unable to hold the iron pliers, and hurriedly added: "Ladies, when you see seafood, you must use iron pliers and don't do it yourself. Some seafood is poisonous. If you are not careful, It’s easy to get poisoned and your body will swell.”

After listening to Ye Xiuying's words, Meng Xia looked at the rich ladies in front of him who didn't care, and mentioned it again, only then could he hear their responses.

Everyone set off from Guo's house, just as Meng Xia expected. When these rich ladies walked to the beach, the sea water had just receded.

Various seafood is scattered on the beach.

There were crabs walking sideways on the beach, trying to find a shelter; there were holes on the beach, and Chang Pingning knew at a glance that there must be seafood such as conches and clams hidden under the holes.

Chang Pingning saw the excited expressions of the rich ladies and quickly taught them a few words on how to use iron tongs to pick up seafood. Then he saw them eagerly looking for various seafood from the beach.

The scenery on the beach was something that the girls locked up in the backyard had never seen before. They were all very happy. Some people rushed towards the crabs, some kept using iron tongs to pick things near the rocks, and even more Someone wants to dig holes in the beach to see what's hidden under them...

Seeing how happy they were, Chang Pingning recalled the scene when she and her mother-in-law came to catch the sea for the first time. She still remembered that all she caught at that time were big guys.Thinking of this, Chang Pingning crouched down and looked for a large conch like the first time he came to catch the sea.

Unexpectedly, when Chang Pingning was looking for seafood, he was stopped by his mother-in-law.

"Ning Ning, we are not in a hurry." Ye Xiuying's calm expression even showed some worry.

Chang Pingning agreed and quickly stood up.

This time, the two of them brought three or five rich girls to catch the sea, but they must not make any mistakes. What she and her mother-in-law had to do was to ensure the safety of these girls.

Chang Pingning thought and realized that he had indeed been a little reckless just now.

The two stood on the beach, always paying attention to the whereabouts of each lady, almost all of them nearby.

Chang Pingning breathed a sigh of relief. She felt the sea breeze blowing on her face and felt that the tide was about to rise.When she looked at her mother-in-law, her expression was very nervous, and she was always paying attention to the direction of the rising tide, so that the group of people could have fun picking without being in danger.

Thinking of this, Chang Pingning looked at the wooden buckets in everyone's hands. Some ladies' buckets were already full and they were wandering around on the beach; while those who didn't fill their buckets didn't seem to care about this and were still on the beach. Looking for something.

"The tide is coming." Ye Xiuying felt the sea breeze on her face and suddenly shouted, "Get back to the shore quickly!"

The ladies whose buckets were not full, after hearing Ye Xiuying's words, first ran nervously towards the shore for two steps, but when they looked back, they found that the sea water had not changed, and then they slowed down.

The wave came and the water rose up to the knees.Only then did the ladies who had previously slowed down speed up again.

But someone's barrel was overturned by the waves just now, and the lady squatted down anxiously, groping under the water with her hands.

Upon seeing this, Chang Pingning shouted anxiously to the young lady: "The water is coming up, don't pick it up!"

But the other party was unmoved and continued to feel for something under the water. He shouted to Chang Pingning: "My bucket was knocked off by the waves."

Chang Pingning had no choice but to look at the rising water. He quickly ran to the young lady and pulled her up, speaking in an urgent tone.

"Stop looking, go to the shore quickly." Chang Pingning said, grabbing the young lady and running to the shore.

The young lady was frightened by Chang Pingning's sudden behavior, and originally wanted to shake her hand away, but then, a wave fell behind her, and she realized that the sea water had risen to her thighs.

The two of them ran to the shore anxiously.

After Chang Pingning saw that the two of them were safe, he let go of his hand and took a deep breath.

Only after the young lady returned to the shore did she realize how dangerous it was for her to squat in the rising tide.
