In this story of daily life during the 80s, the once fat and ugly Chu Xuan is reborn in a small fishing village in 1983. In this life, she doesn't want to cause Mu Chenze's family to be rui...
Mu Chenze said that they could have a good chat, and then said that they could just exchange a few words.
Chu Xuan was amused by his inconsistent statements, "You came to my bedroom, not just to talk, right?"
Mu Chenze felt seen through, and a blush appeared on his face, but he still responded shamelessly, "Yes. I want to hug you. If you are not afraid of being seen by Xiaofeng, I don't mind doing it here..."
Pretend to open your arms.
Chu Xuan surrendered immediately, "Not here. Follow me."
But Xiaofeng can’t see them hugging each other.
They walked into the bedroom one after another and turned on the light.
Mu Chenze closed the door, drew the curtains, and looked at Chu Xuan lovingly.
"Xiao Xuan, you are so beautiful!"
Gently hold her in your arms.
Just when he wanted to kiss Xiao Xuan, Chu Feng's voice rang out from outside the door, "Brother-in-law, I don't know how to solve a problem. Can you help me?"
"Okay, I'll be there right away." Mu Chenze let go of Chu Xuan helplessly.
Go to Xiaofeng's bedroom and explain the questions to him.
Chu Xuan covered her mouth and laughed, laughing at Mu Chenze's failure to succeed in doing something bad.
There were a lot of questions that Xiao Feng didn't know how to answer tonight, which took up more than an hour of Mu Chenze's time.
Only then did Mu Chenze realize that Xiao Feng did it on purpose.
I guess she did this because she was worried that he would take advantage of Xiaoxuan.
After finishing the question, he did not linger.
After watching Mu Chenze leave, Chu Xuan locked himself in the courtyard gate and was about to return to his bedroom when Xiao Feng pulled him into the main room.
"Sister, before you and your brother-in-law officially get married, it's best to keep a proper distance. I heard from my classmate that his sister got pregnant after kissing his brother-in-law in the bedroom. You can't get pregnant before you get married. It's okay for you two to talk in the living room or the kitchen, but you're not allowed to go to the bedroom."
Chu Xuan held her forehead with her hand, "Kissing won't get you pregnant. And your brother-in-law and I didn't kiss..."
Chu Feng frowned, "Then how can I get pregnant?"
Chu Xuan was too embarrassed to explain. "Go find your junior high school biology book some other day! Xiao Feng, I know you're doing this for my own good. I'll keep my distance from your brother-in-law from now on. Go back to your room and get some rest!"
"good."
The next day, Chu Xuan and Mu Chenze both put on rubber shoes, took their sea-hunting tools, and went to the secret sea-hunting place together.
Haven't been here for a long time.
The tide is receding.
They followed the tide and picked up six conches as big as an adult's fist, a sea bass over 30 centimeters long and a dozen swimming crabs.
As for those small clams and the like, I didn't pick them up.
The tide continues to recede.
A strip of kelp more than five meters long was left on the beach.
Put it in the backpack.
After waiting for a while, the dozen or so tide pools appeared.
They took a look.
I estimate there are more than 100 kilograms of skinned fish.
The grilled fish fillet factory in the village now sells this for 5 cents per pound.
All of these can be put into a backpack and sold for more than 5 yuan.
Since there was nothing good, they no longer disliked the skinned fish.
Just when they thought that this was all they had gained for the day and were about to go back, a wave hit the beach.
There was a big mackerel about half a meter long on the beach.
Mu Chenze and Chu Xuan looked at each other. Is this the Sea God sending fish?
Before they could go forward to pick up the fish, another wave came.
There was another big mackerel on the beach, even bigger than the previous one.
Chu Xuan looked towards the distant sea, "Ze, look over there, there seems to be a blue whale."
Mu Chenze looked over and saw that on the sea in the distance, there was indeed a blue whale jumping out of the sea, drawing a beautiful arc, and returning to the sea.
Just when they thought the blue whale had left, they saw it jump out of the sea again, as if saying hello to them.
Then another wave hit the beach.
There was another big mackerel on the beach.
Chu Xuan suddenly remembered the blue whale he had saved. "It might be the one I saved. Could the big mackerel on the beach be given by it?"
Mu Chenze made trumpet shapes with his hands, placed them on his mouth, and shouted into the distance, "Blue Whale, thank you for the big mackerel! I'm engaged to your benefactor, No. 9! Are you happy for us?"
Chu Xuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Luckily, it didn't understand what you said to it about our engagement. If it could understand, it would have thought you were asking for an engagement gift in disguise!"
Mu Chenze continued to shout, "These three big mackerels are your engagement gifts for Xiaoxuan and me!"
Chu Xuan also imitated Mu Chenze and shouted, "Blue whale, it's easy to run aground here, go back to the deep sea! Go back quickly!"
The blue whale on the sea in the distance circled the sea three times and left.
Fortunately, they also brought baskets, shoulder poles, ropes and other things.
The three big mackerels weighed more than 100 kilograms and were put into the basket.
Mu Chenze wanted to carry the fish on a shoulder pole, but Chu Xuan snatched it away.
"Your rib injury still needs to be healed. I'll take care of it."
Mu Chenze patted his ribs lightly and said, "It doesn't hurt anymore. I'll pick it, no problem."
"It takes a hundred days to heal a broken bone. I'm already very grateful that you can accompany me to the sea. But I can't bear to let you carry such a heavy fish."
Including the skinned fish, it would weigh about two to three hundred kilograms.
"I can carry more than 50 kilograms without any problem. Give me some."
At Mu Chenze's insistence, Chu Xuan gave him a basket of fish.
The rest of the seafood was carried by Chu Xuan.
They first went around the mountain road to the dock to sell big mackerel.
Arriving at Li Tong's stall, Mu Chenze was the first to speak, "Boss Li, Xiaoxuan and I are bored at home, so we wanted to buy fish to make some money. We actually managed to get a few big ones. Do you think you'd take them? What's your price?"
I won’t admit that I am collecting goods at sea, so as not to be targeted.
In the past, Mu Chenze would sell all large quantities of goods under his name.
This time is no exception.
Li Tong was amazed. "Such a big Spanish mackerel! I'll charge 1.5 yuan per pound! Skinned fish are 0.5 cents per pound, the same price as the grilled fish fillet factory. This way, you two don't have to go to the grilled fish fillet factory to pick it up."
The price offered by Li Tong was suitable, and Mu Chenze and Chu Xuan immediately nodded in agreement.
There were a total of 135 kilograms of Spanish mackerel and 126 kilograms of skinned fish. They did not sell the other seafood and planned to take them home to eat.
The total amount was 208.8 yuan, and Li Tong directly gave 210 yuan.
Chu Xuan was responsible for collecting and counting money.
After confirming that everything was correct, Chu Xuan and Mu Chenze said goodbye and left.
Their daily income was more than several workers’ monthly salary, and they were very happy.
The money was in Chu Xuan's hands, and Mu Chenze no longer wanted any dividends.
"Xiao Xuan, go home and change your clothes. Let's go shopping in the county town, shall we?"
He has not yet completed the task of buying gold jewelry for Xiaoxuan that his mother arranged for him.
The five hundred dollars was still hidden under his pillow in his bedroom.
Chu Xuan didn't know about this yet, "Didn't you just go there yesterday?"
"Go see if the photos have been developed."
Mu Chenze knew that if he told the truth, Xiao Xuan would definitely not go.
Chu Xuan was surprised. "Didn't the owner of the photo studio say it would take at least a week?"
"Let's go and urge him, and go shopping together to cultivate our relationship."
"Do we still need to cultivate our relationship?"
"Of course it's necessary. I'll take advantage of my free time to accompany you to visit every corner of the county."
"Okay then! In an hour, you can ride your bike to my house. You can take the remaining fish back home and we'll eat it at your house tonight."
"Okay."
They each went home to take a shower and change clothes.
An hour later, Chu Xuan had just finished taking a shower and changed into clean clothes when there was a knock on the door.
Thinking it was Mu Chenze, he said, "Wait a moment, I'll collect the clothes in the yard and then go out."
Qin Mahua's voice came from outside the door, "Xiao Xuan, it's me. I want to talk to you about something. Please open the door first." (End of this chapter)
