Wear It with Space - Chapter 14
Sister-in-law Liu threw the fishing net into the lake and heard the call. When she looked up, she saw Shen Ling in the water. She pushed the fishing boat over a little bit, walked to the bow, lifted Shen Ling from the water, and asked, “Where is the big brother who came with you?”
Shen Ling tossed her hair behind her shoulders, twisting her clothes, and said: “He swims faster than me, and he probably has already gone ashore.”
Sister-in-law Liu seemed hesitant to speak after hearing this.
Shen Ling said: “If he hadn’t been greedy for cheap, he would not have encountered such a thing. But the four people are really ridiculous, but with a little underwater skills, they dared to break ground on our heads. But I was frightened when I played with them. It’s so pissing.” She glanced at Sister Liu, “It’s just that since Sister-in-law knows that they are uneasy and kind, why didn’t she say something to remind her?”
Sister-in-law Liu smiled bitterly: “Then Lao Er Liu is one of our tyrants, and his brothers are not even good people. Where do our usual fishermen dare to go against them? Sometimes I can’t see it, and I will say a few more words. Mouth, it’s useless to just say it. Those customers are still greedy for cheap, but I used the opportunity to blackmail. You think, we fishermen only rely on the fish and shrimp caught every day to eat. If we send the boat passengers to the other side, we won’t be able to fight. Fish, naturally, make up for that loss.”
Shen Ling said, “I have a way to allow you to carry more guests in the future.” She saw Sister Liu’s look willing to hear the details, and said, “To tell you the truth, today I acted as a water ghost to scare them four. It’s not easy. When you go back, don’t tell anyone about seeing me again.” So the four people really thought they had met a water ghost. As long as they cherished their lives, they wouldn’t dare to go into the water to murder the boat passengers in the future.
Sister-in-law Liu is a shrewd person, and she understands it immediately, “Okay, I know what you mean.” It’s just a little curious, “The water level of Lao Er Liu and his brothers is pretty good here, why? Still scared by you?”
Shen Ling smiled and said: “My family has been fishing on the sea for generations. We often go to the bottom of the sea to gather some pearl shells. The water is slowly developed. The water of Zhubi Lake is just a small pond in our eyes.”
Sister-in-law Liu understood, “It turned out to be like this.” Because Shen Ling thought of such a way to solve Lao Er Liu’s problem, she wanted to sell her.
“Since you go to the bottom of the sea to collect pearls, you must have to deal with the bead shop. By coincidence, my natal brother worked as a second shopkeeper in a bead shop in Fucheng. You went to report my name to ensure that the price is higher than that of other shops. “
Sister-in-law Liu reported the name of the store, and also said the name of her natal brother. She saw that the ship had already reached the shore, but she couldn’t see Shen Ling’s eldest brother, so she couldn’t help but look back at Shen Ling.
“Big girl, where’s your big brother?”
Shen Ling smiled and said: “He is a quick temper, and I can’t wait until I’m guessing that he has already left. It’s okay, we have arranged to meet at an inn in Fucheng, and I just leave.”
She watched Sister Liu’s fishing boat go away, and smuggled Zhao Gang out of the space under the cover of the bamboo forest by the lake. She saw that the other party was still asleep, and could not help but secretly admire the strength of this body. She went out to sea to fish since she was a child. Just big.
She poured some water on Zhao Gang’s face and shook him vigorously for a long time before the latter woke up slowly.
“What’s wrong with me?” Zhao Gang touched the back of his head, and there was a dull pain.
Shen Ling said: “You don’t remember, when the boat was halfway, the second Liu and the three men attacked us. I hurried you into the water, but unexpectedly you were knocked out of your head by one of them. If it weren’t for the later sister-in-law Liu When it saves us, I’m afraid we have already confessed here.”
Zhao Gang remembered the situation before, and only felt afraid for a while.
Shen Ling wanted him to rest for a while before leaving, but Zhao Gang was a little frightened, and he urged Shen Ling to leave without waiting for his clothes to be dried by the sun.
Shen Ling Renxiao followed him quickly leaving here and rushed to Fucheng at dusk.
At this time, most of the shops on the street were closed, and the two discussed to find an inn to take a break. After Zhao Gang learned a lesson, he stopped being greedy for cheapness. Following Shen Ling’s suggestion, he found an old-fashioned inn and opened two rooms.
On the second day, Shen Ling found the shop in accordance with Liu’s instructions. After talking to the buddy about the name of the second shopkeeper, a man with a short beard walked over behind the counter.
He had seen the fineness of the pearls in Shen Ling’s hand, and offered a price of seven taels of silver each.
Shen Ling felt that the price had exceeded his expectations, so he happily sold the ten pearls and got seventy taels of silver.
When returning home from Fucheng, Shen Ling proposed not to take the Zhubi Lake waterway instead of land. Zhao Gang naturally agreed with both hands.
Three days later, the two brought home seventy taels of silver. Under the light, Father Zhao and Aunt Zhao looked at Bai Huahua’s pile of silver and laughed from ear to ear.
After the family was happy, they discussed the purpose of the silver.
Because the pearl was brought up by Shen Ling, the old couple first asked the girl what she meant. Shen Ling meant that he could use the money to buy a house in the town, and then use the remaining money to buy some land in the countryside and rent out fishing boats, so that he could live by collecting rent in the future.
The old couple thought about it, and both thought that Shen Ling’s idea was good. It’s just that they feel that the house they live in now is deserted.
Shen Ling smiled and said: “Then give Zhao Gang! I saved his life, father, you give him the house, it is not an exaggeration to recognize him as a godson!”
When Shen Ling handed the silver to the old couple, Zhao Gang had already escaped in order to avoid suspicion. At this time, Shen Ling went out to find him, saying that Father Zhao wanted to recognize him as a godson and give him the house. Zhao Gang immediately kowtowed his head and shouted at Father Zhao. He was just a house. He refused to pay for it in vain, and finally wrote an IOU for Zhang Shiliang.
Within a few days of work, Shen Ling went to the town to take a good look at a two-door house, because the owner was eager to sell it, and only spent thirty taels of silver to buy it.
Then I bought the land, and it was a lot of toss.
During this period, people in the fishing village heard that the Zhao family had made a fortune, so they asked a matchmaker to come and propose marriage if they had the brains to turn quickly. In this regard, Mr. Zhao refused all but said in the future.
It’s just that when Father Zhao talked to Aunt Zhao in the evening, he couldn’t help but say: “What on earth did Xiaodie think? Nowadays, there are more people who come to propose relatives. I think there are many good people inside. Why is she not willing to be one of them? “
Aunt Zhao said: “I’m wondering too! I thought she had taken Zhao Gang back. It was so interesting, but when I turned around, I let people recognize you as a godfather.”
Father Zhao said: “Zhao Gang is a good child, but this marriage is about your love and my wish. I don’t think neither of them mean that, so you shouldn’t bring it up in the future. But tomorrow, you will take care of Xiaodie. If you do, see what she means.”
When Aunt Zhao opened the door of the girl’s room early the next morning, Shen Ling was facing the bronze mirror and smearing pearl powder on her face. Although Aunt Zhao couldn’t understand what she was playing around, it was obvious to all that the girl’s complexion became whiter day by day, so she didn’t say anything, just mentioned Daddy Zhao.
Shen Ling smiled and said: “Mother, don’t worry about it. None of those people in the town leave their daughters to marry until they are seventeen or eighteen. We will wait until we move to the town.”
The house they bought in the town was originally an old house. It was abandoned for a period of time. After it was bought, it still needs to be repaired, so they still live in the fishing village for the time being.
Shen Ling’s idea is very simple. Now that they have bought a house in the town, they will live in the town in the future. Then even if you want to find your in-law’s house, you have to find it in the town. After all, the water flows to the lower places and people go to the higher places.
After half a month, the house was repaired.
On the day of moving, Zhao Gang went to the town to rent two carriages. One pulled furniture and covered pots, pans and pans, while the other was seated.
Because the Zhao family has been in the limelight this month, buying a house and buying land has attracted the attention of the whole village. So on the day of the move, half of the villagers came to see them move.
It didn’t take long before they noticed Zhao Xiaodie, Father Zhao’s daughter. Because this girl had been going to sea with Father Zhao a long time ago, her skin was dry and dark, and she could not dress up, and her clothes were either black or gray. Some people believed that she was a kid.
But today, everyone feels that Fluttershy is like a changed person, wearing a primrose-colored dress embroidered with roses, making her complexion quite fair. He wore a simple bun on his head and wore two delicate yellow velvet flowers, looking delicate and neat.
The eyes of those unmarried youngsters looked straight, and they didn’t realize until now that Xiaodie was pretty good-looking, but he didn’t have a good dress before.
