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...
Chapter 21 Promise Me One Thing
The sea is merciless.
Chu Xuan knew that if she didn't leave now, she would be in danger.
She cherishes her life.
She decisively moved towards the place where she had placed the bucket. When she returned to the shore with the bucket, she found that someone was trapped in the sea.
That seems to be where the big bass is.
It turned out that she was not the only one who coveted the big bass.
Fortunately, she is not so greedy, otherwise she would be the one trapped.
“Help! Help!”
When the person in the sea shouted for help, Chu Xuan immediately recognized it as Chu Zhi's voice.
Thinking of the murder she suffered in her previous life, she wished Chu Zhi would be taken away by the sea.
Chu Zhi can swim, but he was shouting for help because he was probably scared because he couldn't swim back.
In his previous life, Chu Zhi was also trapped in the sea because of his greed for fishing. In the end, he swam to the shore while shouting for help and successfully saved himself. But not today.
Chu Xuan pretended not to hear and left with the bucket.
There is no seafood that needs to be sold at the dock today, so I will go home directly.
After returning home, Chu Feng took the bucket from her hand and took a look at it in the light of the yard. "Sister, are you unlucky today or did you find some good stuff and sell it? Is it just clams and two skinned fish?"
Chu Xuan hadn't noticed when he came back, so he quickly used his flashlight to check carefully, "No! There are still two Spanish mackerel."
"Was it stolen?"
"It must have been stolen by Chu Zhi. Little brother, I'm going out for a while."
The mackerel was definitely not going to be retrieved, as Chu Zhi’s bucket had been engulfed by the sea water, but he had to let out this anger.
Chu Xuan took a sack and went out again, hiding in the place where Chu Zhi had to pass on his way home.
After a while, Chu Zhi's cursing voice could be heard, "Damn it! They all say that Chu Xuan, that bitch, is so lucky when it comes to shipping. Today, I wanted to take advantage of her, but she almost drowned me. I didn't catch any big bass, and the two Spanish mackerel I did catch were washed away by the waves. I even lost a bucket. It's really unlucky! Hmm..."
The quilt was covered with a sack.
Chu Xuan beat him up with punches and kicks.
Chu Zhi begged for mercy again and again, "Please spare my life, sir! Please spare my life!"
Chu Xuan deliberately used a man's voice and said, "Stay away from Pan Xiaoli from our village from now on! Otherwise, I'll beat you up every time I see you!"
Pan Xiaoli is the girl Chu Zhi has a crush on, and she is not a good person.
When Chu Zhi hurriedly escaped from the sack, Chu Xuan had already returned home.
Chu Zhi felt guilty and dared not tell anyone about this. After all, he had secretly kissed Pan Xiaoli and thought it was revenge from Pan Xiaoli's suitor.
The next morning, Chu Zhi was unable to get up and had a high fever. Feng Chunhua wanted to block Chu Xuan's door, but unfortunately she was too busy and had to take care of her son first.
Chu Xuan borrowed a bicycle to go to town to buy pork belly. He planned to have stir-fried clams and stewed pork belly with eggplant and potatoes for lunch.
When we got to the town, we saw someone selling grilled fish fillets.
It is made from skinned fish.
This was one of Chu Xuan’s favorite snacks at her husband’s house in her previous life.
I bought one for two cents and tried it. The fish fillet was a bit hard and hard to bite. It was not as delicious as the roasted Qin Mahua one.
In her previous life, Chu Xuan loved to eat this and she learned how to grill fish fillets from Qin Mahua.
At this moment, Chu Xuan had an inspiration. Maybe he could open a small grilled fish fillet workshop first.
It can be made into salty and sweet, spicy and hot, sweet and spicy and other flavors.
Once the new house is built and the yard is tidied up, the grilled fish fillet business can be started.
When life has a purpose, the mood will be wonderful.
With a confident smile on his face, he walked forward with big strides.
It happened to be captured by Mu Chenze who had just returned from the county town.
This was the first time that Mu Chenze saw a fat man walking on the street so confidently, and the key point was that it didn't look out of place at all.
Chu Xuan didn't see him, so he didn't go up to disturb her.
At half past nine in the morning, she returned home carrying meat and vegetables.
Gao Meijuan and Wang Shasha just happened to come to the door.
Chu Feng and Wang Shasha went to wash the vegetables, and Gao Meijuan took Chu Xuan to the bedroom.
"Xiao Xuan, I asked Sasha's grandmother. She said that Feng Chunhua had a difficult labor before giving birth, so she went to the county town to give birth. Hua Daling's mother-in-law was with her. Her mother-in-law passed away several years ago. I think Hua Daling should know something."
Chu Xuan muttered softly, "She definitely knows. She just won't say it. Grandma Gao, thank you, now I know what's going on. There's no rush, let's take our time."
Gao Meijuan looked at Chu Xuan with admiration in her eyes and patted her shoulder gently to show her approval.
That night, Chu Xuan went to the beach as usual.
This time, she was much calmer.
It would be best if you could find good stuff, but if you can’t, don’t worry.
After all, she had thought of another way to make money.
It will be implemented in about half a month.
For this purpose, she also communicated with Lin Lou specifically and decided to build two barbecue ovens in the yard after the house was built.
As soon as I walked onto the beach, I met Mu Chenze.
Chu Xuan took the initiative to greet him, "What a coincidence, you came over for a walk to help digest your food?"
Mu Chenze pretended to be serious. "That's right. I've been strolling on the beach every day, and I found a great place to go fishing. I wonder if you're interested in going with me?"
Disguised subsidies are worse than teaching people how to fish.
With that good place to go, Chu Xuan's family will have a better life in the future.
Chu Xuan said without hesitation, "If you're interested, take me to see it."
In her previous life, Mu Chenze once told her that there was a good place to go fishing. At that time, she was lazy and selfish. She didn't want to endure the hardship of fishing and refused to listen to him about the location. Finally, he told his sister-in-law Fu Qing.
Mu Chenze took a few steps forward and suddenly stopped. "I can take you there, but you have to keep it a secret. No one else is allowed to go with you."
Chu Xuan said very seriously, "No problem! I will keep it absolutely confidential."
In this life, she must seize this opportunity.
There is a convex mountain on the seashore, part of which extends into the sea.
Half an hour later, Mu Chenze took Chu Xuan around a mountain road and arrived at a wet beach where the tide had just receded.
On the beach, in addition to clams, there are also conchs, crabs and the like.
Chu Xuan was about to pick it up when Mu Chenze stopped him.
"Let's go check out the front first."
"good."
Chu Xuan followed immediately.
After walking for more than ten minutes following the receding tide, I found a dozen tide pools of different sizes, which contained many different kinds of fish.
Chu Xuan was stunned. Isn’t this a pie in the sky?
Mu Chenze raised his hand and waved it in front of her eyes, "Why are you still standing there? Where's the hand net? Hurry up and catch some fish!"
Chu Xuan's heart was filled with joy as he came back to his senses. "Okay! Let's go fishing! From now on, I'll give you half of all the seafood I find here after selling it."
Mu Chenze was about to say no, but thinking that she was not someone who would take advantage of money, he changed his words and said, "Just give me 30%, after all, I won't have time to come here to catch seafood in the future. If you don't agree, I will find someone else to cooperate with."
Chu Xuan responded cheerfully, "I agree! I have to agree! You've helped me make more money, so I have to thank you! I'll treat you to dinner at my house someday."
Mu Chenze asked, "When is the next time?"
"After we finish building the new house!"
"good!"
We chatted while fishing, and half an hour later, we had two full buckets of fish.
Each person carried a bucket, one in front and one behind, walking around the mountain road towards the dock.
Mu Chenze said as he walked, "Chu Xuan, you have to promise me one thing, otherwise I will regret bringing you here."
Chu Xuan was in a very good mood, her mind was extremely rational, "Except for not marrying you, I can agree to everything else."
