fisherwoman

Chapter 64

Tonight, Zhao Shun's house is destined to not be peaceful.

A group of people gathered around him, yelling excitedly, why should they punish their own daughter-in-law, they should be punished together, if they have the ability to punish the whole village, it is clear that they are a bully, right?

There are also many people watching the fun, they are crowded in the yard of Zhao Shun's house, talking and laughing, as if they are watching a play, completely ignoring the anxiety of the parties, isn't it just kneeling for punishment!What's the matter!

Zhao Shun was so dizzy from their quarrel that he couldn't explain clearly for a while.

"People from our family have been waiting at the Dragon King Temple, but Zhao Ziliang's people won't let them come forward. What's the matter?" Xiao Jingzhi said loudly, "It's really people from our village. Let outsiders get involved?"

As soon as Xiao Chengshan and Xiao Chenghai heard about this, they went to the Dragon King Temple to see how their sister-in-law was doing, but they were stopped back, saying that they could not come forward without the order of the village head.

There is no way, the third child is not at home, his daughter-in-law has been punished for something like this, as an elder brother, he always has to move forward, although Shen and Yu don't want them to go into this muddy water, but because of love On the other hand, they had no choice but to wait on the seawall with other people. After all, there were only a few women inside. If something happened, what should they do?

"That's right, that's right, why should outsiders take care of our village's own affairs?" Several family members echoed.

Zhao Shun stood there with a black line on his face, he didn't want to go, he didn't want to go, after all, he kept saying that they were punished in the Dragon King Temple, if he went to release them now, wouldn't that be slapping himself in the face?

In the end, Father Zhao yelled: "Stop arguing, Zhao Shun. You go with them to the temple and release him first. We will talk about this tomorrow."

"Don't wait for tomorrow, let's clarify this matter tonight while everyone is here." With the support of his son, Mr. Du walked over tremblingly.

Everyone was taken aback, isn't this the Yin Yang Tong of their village?

All these years, this old man has been hiding at home and never going out, today.How did you make an exception?

"Old man, why did your old man come out?"

"That's right!"

"Hey, long time no see. It seems that the old man is in good spirits. When will we figure it out?" Everyone hurriedly gathered around and asked in one go.

Even Zhao Shun and Father Zhao were quite surprised.How could Mr. Du come to their house on such a late night?

"Grandpa, why did you come out in person this late at night?" Father Zhao rushed forward, "Please come to the room."

"No, no, no, I stay in the house all day. I've stayed enough, and I'm happy to see you today." Mr. Du waved his hands again and again, declined, and then said seriously, "I'm here to explain Haifa. The thing, the rumor that has been circulating in the village for so many years, is actually a dream I had 50 years ago, speaking of it, I am ashamed!"

Seeing that his father was a little excited, old man Du went up to tell everyone the cause of his father's dream, "My father has been very guilty these years, and he hopes that everyone will not be confused because of this matter." It hurts the peace. After all, our life is not rich. There is no need to punish those women for a dream of 50 years. Now that this matter has been revealed, I ask the village chief to let them go, and everyone will live a good life in the future."

"This..." Zhao Shun was a little embarrassed, he looked at his father hesitantly.

"Since the old man has said so, there is no need for us to guard against this rumor. Folks, what do you think?" Father Zhao pondered for a moment, then looked up at the fishermen who surrounded him.

"Of course we agree with the old man's statement. Besides, this sea hair is actually a kind of sea vegetable in the sea. It's just a strange name. After all, it's the same as fish and shrimp. It's all given by the Dragon King. We don't need to be serious. Is it right?" Xiao Jingzhi also took the opportunity to say, in fact, he never believed this rumor!

"Yes, Mr. Xiao is right." Er Shuan and Liu Qingyu who stood aside also shouted loudly, their daughter-in-law was also locked inside!

"That's the reason." Seeing that Mr. Xiao and Old Man Zhao, the most prestigious in the village, said the same thing, they naturally echoed. They didn't really have much reaction to this matter, isn't it just a kind of seaweed?It grows on the reef, except when fishing, it is a little troublesome to get entangled in the fish, but it tastes delicious.

Ma Xingzhi on the side heard this, nodded again and again, stepped forward and said, "Fellow folks, I'm a foreigner, and I shouldn't care about such things, but Haifa here actually has another name in the book, which is laver. , since this matter has been misunderstood for such a long time, why don't you call it Haifafa in the future, and just follow the book and call it Laver!"

"Laver?"

"Laver? Actually, the name is quite nice."

There was another whisper in the crowd.

Father Zhao and Xiao Jingzhi looked at each other, said a few words in a low voice, and then nodded to Zhao Shun.

Zhao Shun met his father's gaze, walked forward knowingly, and said loudly: "Okay, Haifa will be called Laver from now on, let's go to the beach to release people now."

"Okay, let's go." Then everyone walked out of the door one after another.

The two people guarding in front of the Dragon King Temple saw that Zhao Shun led a group of people noisy to release him, and they also left knowingly. What can I say!

"Sister-in-law three, sister-in-law three." Xiao Yun rushed forward and pushed open the temple door, barged in, and shouted loudly.

"Big sister, I'm here." Lin Xueman hurriedly ran over from the stairs, looking at the cold moonlight and big sister outside, she suddenly felt as if she had passed away.

"Let's go, let's go home." Xiao Yun stepped forward and took her hand, and couldn't help sobbing a few times. Although it was only half a day, but after all, it was her family who had been wronged, and she felt sad for a while.

"Okay, I'm fine, look well!" Lin Xueman looked at the sister-in-law standing in front of her wiping her tears, and felt moved.

"Okay, okay, it's okay, let's all go home!" Zhao Shun stood outside and shouted, "It's so late, everyone should leave!"

As soon as the women who were punished inside came out.The crowd gathered around immediately, each pulling their own daughters-in-law, asking about the cold and warm for a long time, and then they dispersed to go home.

Xiao Chengshan and Xiao Chenghai saw people coming out from a distance, so they returned home without saying a word, and didn't go forward.

Along the way, Xiao Yun took Lin Xueman's arm and kept asking if he was afraid, if it was cold, and so on.

"Not afraid. There are quite a few people!" Lin Xueman smiled, this sister-in-law is really considerate.

Xiao Jingzhi walked in front of the two, and the cold moonlight elongated his shadow, making him look taller and thinner.

"Father, you are tired." Lin Xueman walked a few steps quickly and said.She looked at him and felt a little sorry. Needless to say, for his own affairs, he must have been busy looking for someone to intercede.

"It's fine." After speaking, he strode forward.

"Daughter-in-law, are you okay!" Shi Yang and Xiao Qing also hurriedly came from the front.

"It's okay, mother. Am I back?" Lin Xueman rushed forward to meet her.

"Okay mother, let's go home quickly! The third sister-in-law hasn't eaten yet! If there is anything to do, we will talk about it at home, and we will talk about it tomorrow after dinner." Seeing tears in her mother's eyes again, Xiao Yun hurriedly urged.

"Well, okay, let's go home quickly!" Yang replied, "Mother has been warming up your meal. Let's eat first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow if we have anything to do."

Under the moonlight.A group of people walked sparsely on the way back to the village, and there was a little life in the lonely field.

Lin Xueman ate some food in the old house before returning to the new house and fell asleep. This day is really tiring!

It is true that everything depends on good fortune. After all this trouble, Longtan Village can suddenly pick sea hair, no, it can pick seaweed, which surprised Lin Xueman.

She knew the whole story from Xiao Yun, and she was very grateful to the old man Ma next door. This person's heart is actually pretty good!

For this reason, she went to his house to thank him.

Ma Xingzhi laughed and said that this matter started because of him, and it should be calmed down because of him.

Zhao Ziliang knew about it, and a rival complained that Zhao Shun had no idea and let the villagers lead him by the nose, which was so unruly!

Zhao Shun just laughed, and Yin Yang Tong explained it himself, and the villagers didn't care about it anymore, so why should he care about the truth!

In the past few days, people came and went on the reef by the sea, and everyone took advantage of their free time to pick these laver one after another, and then imitated Lin Xueman, went home to dry, put them in cloth bags for storage, and kept them. Make soup and drink it!

We all know that there is a set date for picking seaweed, and when the weather is hot, it cannot be picked.

Naturally, Lin Xueman and Xiao Yun were not idle, they stayed by the seaside almost every day, helped the eldest and the second child to clean up the fishery, then went there to pick seaweed, seeing more and more seaweed piled up at home, the whole family burst into laughter, Even if you don't sell it, you can eat it at home!

Shen and Yu have no time to pick seaweed. They go to the town to sell the fish every day, and they have to go home to wash and cook, and take care of the children. !

In the blink of an eye, it entered February, and the weather was getting warmer and warmer. Xiao Chengyu had been away for more than ten days and hadn't come back yet. Lin Xueman also began to worry, why didn't he come back?

In the past few days, Mrs. Yang has also started to talk about it. Since she is on duty, she should be back. At least, a letter is fine!

For this reason, Xiao Jingzhi went to the yamen for several times and asked Lu Zhixian. The answer he got was, don't worry, they will be back in a few days!

The family had no choice but to wait with peace of mind. After all, all the maritime patrols here had gone, and none of them came back. Xiao Chengyu was not the only one.

It is gratifying that Wang Qingnian also came to Longtan Village again as promised. After going to the town to prepare the goods, he stayed at Xiao's house for one night, and brought the canned fish that Lin Xueman had marinated to the boat, ready to go Try it in Beijing.

"The taste is not bad. I think it can fetch a good price. I will try my best!" Wang Qingnian looked at these exquisite small clay pots and smiled. "The packaging is not bad. Fortunately, you can still think of using clay pots to pack them."

"Uncle, I'm laughing. Cheng Yu thought of it." Seeing that Wang Qingnian cared about her canned fish, Lin Xueman was also very moved. After all, he really came to solicit goods, not just for fun.

"Well, not bad, spicy small yellow croaker, and the name is good." The more Wang Qingnian looked at it, the more satisfied he was, "I have seen your seaweeds, they can keep for a long time, and I will bring them to you, and put them in my shop for sale. , will definitely sell for a good price.”

"So uncle still has a shop in the capital?" Lin Xueman asked.

"Hehe, I have been delivering goods to people these years. This time, I planned to open a grocery store there to sell special products from our Yuzhou side. When the store opens, I will take my family and let them Looking at the shop, after two years, I will stop sailing and let my son go on this sea route."

It turned out that Wang Qingnian had a son, so he must be younger than Xiao Chengyu, right?Lin Xueman thought to herself, is it just that Wang Qingnian's son is relative?

"Uncle is really a person who travels north and south, take one step, watch a few steps, and pave the way for the future." Lin Xueman looked at him, if her mother-in-law followed this person, it would be good, after all, this person is not mediocre ....

"Haha, don't you? As the saying goes, relying on mountains to eat mountains, relying on seas to eat seas, if you think about this seafood thoroughly, you will be able to live a good life. As long as you are not afraid of hardships, tiredness, and worry about earning To silver." Wang Qingnian said solemnly.

"Well, I see!" Lin Xueman took the opportunity to ask, "Then how much do you think is suitable to sell this batch of small yellow croakers?"

"You fish, like this, sell it for five cents first! If it's good, then slowly increase the price."

"Okay, everything is yours." Lin Xueman responded briskly, and quickly calculated in her mind. If each bottle sells for five cents, two hundred bottles are worth one tael of silver, plus her larger dried fish and those Seaweed, with all the miscellaneous things, can still earn some money. Besides, she basically has no cost for these things, just earning hand money.

Although it is said that Wang Qingnian has a good relationship with his family, in terms of business, he still has to follow the rules of the business field. At that time, the freight and labor costs must be calculated clearly!

After all, this is the first sale, and it might be possible to bring it back without changing the original packaging, so let’s talk about it at that time!

Although Mrs. Yang was very happy about Wang Qingnian's arrival, she no longer had the excitement and joy she had before. The two of them spoke indifferently, as if nothing happened.

On the other hand, Xiao Jingzhi ate and chatted with him as always, without any grudges!

I don't understand!

Could it be that I made a mistake?Xiao Chengyu wasn't Wang Qingnian's child at all?

Lin Xueman thought of the jade pendant again, and remembered Yang's words. She said that no one knew about it except Xiao Jingzhi, so Wang Qingnian didn't know either?

In this way, Xiao Jingzhi must also be hiding this matter, so what kind of background can make a man willing to raise other people's children without regrets or complaints?

Yang also said that she was innocent, so since Xiao Chengyu was not Xiao Jingzhi's child, why did she still say that she was innocent?

Obviously inconsistent!

Forget it, no more!

After sending off Wang Qingnian and those things, Lin Xueman felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart. No matter what, this is also a way for her to make a living in this other world!

Xiao Yun is right, relying on no one is better than relying on oneself! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
