Chapter 548 (1/2)

It will be late.

With a light salty sea breeze blowing slowly, the vast boundless sea waves surging, the water light in the sunset reflects a little bit of gold.

At the end of the field of vision, the edge of the white sand beach is faintly visible.

An old sea boat, about two feet long, came briskly from the distance. The girl in red at the stern of the boat rowed her oars with sweat on her delicate face. Her tired eyes showed a smile of satisfaction.

From time to time, there are ships passing by from nearby, and occasionally some familiar fishermen say hello from afar and laugh a few words. We are all from the same village, and we are naturally familiar with each other.

“…… The Yingjia girl went out to sea alone again today? ”

”The child is also poor. Her parents didn't come back to sea more than half a year ago, and her younger brother died of illness. She was the only one left in the family.”

”No matter how hard it is, you have to live on. It's better to find a good family for her some other time.”

”Come on, she's such a rotten fate. Who's serious? In the future, I will not be rejected by my husband's family. ”

”But the girl looks good. Maybe she can...”

……

The voice of the discussion goes away with the wind. With Yingxin's strength now, these words, intentionally or unintentionally, are heard in her ears without a word. Of course, she doesn't need to care.

Back at the dock, she quickly packed up her cabin, got off the boat, tied the ropes, picked up the fish basket and net and left.

Half an hour later, the familiar low stone wall on the outer edge of the village appeared in the field of vision. Yingxin quickened her pace. She had been out to sea for a long time today, and did not know what was going on at home.

”Yingjia girl,”

at the entrance of the village, an idle man with a sly and playful face squatted in the corner of the wall, gnawing at half a chicken leg. Seeing her coming, she said with a shy face: ”is it going to sea again today? I'll go to your house to propose a marriage tomorrow. As long as I follow you, I won't have to suffer this crime again! ”

Around a group of poor and evil looking friends of pigs and dogs followed, all kinds of nonsense in the ear, Yingxin low voice scolded a sentence, lazy to pay attention to them, lowered his head to step away.

A moment of time, a simple wooden house door, Yingxin push into the door.

”Master, I'm back.”

There was a trace of joy in the girl's clear voice.

From the inner room came a gentle and pleasant male voice: ”is the sea going well today?”

”Fortunately, I'm lucky this time. I got two Liwen snowflake fish, about six or seven Jin in weight. If you take them to the town and sell them, you can get at least ten taels of gold.”
