Xing Yuan was surprised. Was this little guy responding to him?

She's just a baby, how can she be so smart? Yet she can communicate with him secretly.

Xing Yuan's lips moved again: What an obedient and good baby.

Su Tiantian smiled even more happily.

"Ah~"

Yes, I am a well-behaved baby, Uncle has good taste.

Xing Yuan was truly amazed, and the more he looked at Su Tiantian, the more he liked her.

Upon hearing Su Tiantian's voice, Su Luo subconsciously looked at Xing Yuan and saw that Xing Yuan was also smiling, as if he were talking to her daughter. Su Luo was slightly touched by something.

She felt uneasy about this feeling, so she subconsciously quickened her pace so that Xing Yuan couldn't see Su Tiantian anymore.

Su Tiantian looked at Su Luo with a blank expression and some curiosity.

Su Tiantian didn't know what was wrong with her mother; all she knew was that she had just felt her mother's heartbeat quicken.

They had been discovered. Xing Yuan keenly noticed Su Luo's change. He sighed and didn't approach any closer, simply following behind her.

He still has a chance, and he's not afraid of setbacks.

An excellent soldier is one who observes and seeks out the best opportunity to strike.

Xing Yuan maintained a polite distance, and Su Luo finally breathed a sigh of relief.

When we arrived at Liu's fish-collecting shop, he ran over from afar to help.

"Wow, little sister-in-law, you're incredibly lucky! I've walked the coast my whole life and never seen such giant sea cucumbers more than a few times, and you've collected so many!!!"

There's a saying that comparing yourself to others will only make you miserable, and you can't compare a horse to a mule. Liu, the fishmonger, is increasingly understanding the meaning of this saying.

Sea cucumbers can occasionally be found washed ashore by the waves, but I've never seen so many and so big.

"Just lucky."

Li Xue smiled and said that their family's success was more than just good luck, but they would only ever say that they were lucky.

"This is incredible! This sea cucumber is five yuan a pound. Come over here to weigh it and pay."

Liu, who was collecting fish, gave a thumbs up, and he was very happy.

The Su family was very lucky, and he made money along with them.

Such high-quality sea cucumbers are in high demand in the city, and there's no shortage of buyers.

However, such good things are usually bought up by the Monopoly Crown Hotel. As long as they are delivered there, they will take them all, no matter how much there is.

"Comrades, you really are something else."

Liu, who was collecting fish, gave a thumbs-up to the soldiers as they walked by.

His gaze swept over the soldiers, and his smile widened.

The Su family couldn't tell, but he could. He could tell that there was a high-ranking officer among those in military uniforms.

The Su family is just lucky despite their foolishness.

As for that former son-in-law, he was truly blind to have rejected such a wonderful woman. He deserves to regret it later.

"Serving the people is what we should do."

Xing Yuan said politely, and then turned to Su Luo and said, "You guys take your time, we'll head back to the unit first."

Although he wanted to spend more time with Su Luo, it was clearly no longer appropriate now.

Their help was to get the goods to their destination, and they have already done so. If they were still there when the customers were calculating the payment, it would inevitably lead to misunderstandings and undermine their initial good intentions.

"Thank you so much."

Li Xue quickly thanked her.

Thank you.

Su Luo smiled and thanked her.

Xing Yuan led his team away on foot, and met up with Xiao Zhang and Xiao Li halfway there.

After Xing Yuan left, Liu Shouyu said to Li Xue and Su Luo, "Now that's what a soldier should look like."

Remembering last night, Liu, the fishmonger, lowered his voice and said, "Little sister, I have something to tell you..."

Li Xue's eyes widened as she listened, and Su Luo looked incredulous as well.

"I heard yesterday that someone fell into the sea, which alarmed a lot of people, but when they got there, the person had already been washed back by the waves and had vomited a lot of foul water, as if God was punishing him."

Liu, the fishmonger, shook his head as he spoke, feeling that it was God's punishment for Yi Guohai.

Therefore, people should not do anything too immoral, otherwise they will be punished. It's not that they won't be punished, but that the time has not yet come.

"Sister-in-law, little sister, just listen to this for fun, but let's see how much it weighs."

Liu, the fish collector, smiled and gestured for Su Luo and Li Xue to come closer to check the weight.

Upon seeing Su Tiantian, Liu, the fishmonger, waved and said, "Sweetie, do you remember me?"

Su Tiantian smiled happily at Liu, the fish collector, and of course she remembered.

Liu Xinhua was overjoyed as she collected the fish: "This little darling is so sweet it melts your heart."

Li Xue couldn't help but feel envious, but she was mostly gratified.

As a woman, she understood better than anyone the difficulties a woman faces raising a child alone.

"The four buckets of sea cucumbers weigh a total of 130 jin, which is 650 yuan. I'll write a receipt and then pay you."

After Liu weighed the fish and paid, he picked up a sea cucumber and weighed it in his hand. Knowing the Su family's temperament, he figured he would definitely keep some for himself, so he decided to keep some to try as well.

As a fishmonger who handles so many good fish every day, it would be really pointless for him to be stingy.

"Brother Liu, we'll head home now and won't bother you any longer."

Li Xue slung several empty buckets over her arm, greeted Liu the fish collector, and then went home with Su Luo.

Liu, the fish collector, waved goodbye, told the fish collector to be careful on the road, and then sat back down in his wooden chair.

The two returned home together, where Liu Xiaohua and Zhou Chunmei were already processing sea cucumbers and razor clams.

Several children have already run out to play.

"You're back? Are you tired? There are some tender cucumbers inside, have a couple to quench your thirst."

Liu Xiaohua smiled and said that the cucumbers in the field were ready to eat. She had gone to the field early in the morning and picked them all, managing to gather six.

Zhou Chunmei just came back and ate half a stick. The children took two sticks, leaving three and a half sticks.

These cucumbers are crisp and tender, just the right time to eat them. We don't have any fruit at home, so we'll just eat some cucumbers.

"Ah Luo, eat up. I like to drink herbal tea."

Li Xue waved her hand and went inside to drink some herbal tea.

After Li Xue finished her tea, she gave Su Luo a cucumber.

Su Luo took out the money and said, "Second sister-in-law, we made a total of 650. The three of us will split it equally, with each of us getting a little over 216..."

Before Su Luo could finish speaking, Zhou Chunmei interrupted her with a smile: "Luo, we're just getting a good deal because of you, there's no need to be so clear about it. We'd be overjoyed if you could give me and my sister-in-law a hundred yuan each."

Li Xue smiled and nodded: "That's right."

Su Luo didn't stand on ceremony and said with a smile, "Then I'll give each of you two hundred. I'll take the lion's share and get a great deal."

Zhou Chunmei and Li Xue's eyes lit up. That was two hundred yuan, which belonged entirely to them. They wouldn't hesitate to spend it when they went back to their parents' home for the Mid-Autumn Festival to buy something nice.

"Thank you, Aro."

Zhou Chunmei and Li Xue happily accepted it.

Su Luo handed fifty yuan to Liu Xiaohua: "Mom, you help tidy up, you take the small share, this is our way of showing our respect to you."

Liu Xiaohua happily replied, "Oh, I can make money without even leaving home! Great!"

That way, each of the three of them has two hundred yuan, fifty yuan for filial piety, and everyone is happy.

Liu Xiaohua put the money away, then said, "How about I make sea cucumber porridge for lunch, and some fried razor clam omelets to go with the porridge?"
