Chapter 201 Who did you take a fancy to?



When Tang Qiyue heard Shanhu say that she had someone she liked, she immediately reminded her, "Those soldiers in the barracks can't do that. They have their own rules!"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Coral's face. She was also aware of this matter.

When she took Tang Qiyue to see the man she liked, she was rejected and only then learned about this rule, so she did not force it.

This time, when she heard Tang Qiyue's reminder, she interrupted hurriedly: "He's not a soldier!"

Tang Qiyue breathed a sigh of relief.

It is really difficult for her to make connections with those soldiers, but if it is other people, then there is no problem.

"It's someone from the research institute!"

But after Shanhu said this, Tang Qiyue's head still hurt.

Those research maniacs in the research institute?

Those people are more difficult to deal with than soldiers, and although they are research fanatics, they are not easy to fool.

Soldiers are all rough guys. Even if they are smart, at most they have some requirements about appearance and background, and it is really not difficult to get along with them. But those people in the research institute.

Let’s not talk about others, just talk about Bai Xu, he just wants to find a soul mate.

For a man like this, marrying a mermaid like Coral would be more painful than killing them.

Tang Qiyue didn't know how to curb Shanhu's horrible thoughts, fearing that she would be hit again.

The fisherwoman next to her noticed Tang Qiyue's hesitation and pointed out directly, "Shanhu, do you think cultured people would look down on us roughnecks?"

coral:……

She pinched her pigtails and said, "So what? I may not be educated, but I'm the most beautiful girl in our fishing village. Don't those men care about appearance?"

The fisherman's wife shook her head slightly at Tang Qiyue, not wanting her to be the bad guy.

"You're just a little flower in the fishing village, but you know full well that the people in the research institute are all intellectuals from outside. They must have seen all kinds of people and haven't found a partner outside. Do you think you can catch their eye?"

The fisherwoman held Shanhu's hand and said, "Shanhu, you're looking for a live-in son-in-law, not someone you'll marry. Don't set your expectations too high!"

Fundamentally speaking, it is impossible for Coral to find those people in the research institute.

Perhaps her fantasy was shattered by the fisherwoman. Shanhu drooped her head like a wilted cabbage. After a long while, she finally said, "But I don't want to just settle for a man. Not only is he not good-looking, but he also has a bad temper. I'm looking for a man to live with, not to be my boss!"

Even though she was a girl, she knew what marriage meant.

This son-in-law is looked down upon by others and has even less status at home. To put it bluntly, who would want to be a son-in-law if the family is not struggling to make ends meet?

"Even if I only want to have children with them and not get married, is that not okay?"

This was Shanhu's idea, but in return, she received a warning from the fisherwoman: "You'd better not have such thoughts. It's okay for a man to sleep with a woman, but what about you? You have to raise a child alone and be gossiped about. Can you bear it?"

Tang Qiyue interrupted her thoughts in time.

Times are different. This era is more demanding on women.

The key point is that the child born in this way will be miserable.

"You should go and take a look first. Don't get stuck in a rut. The thing this world has the most of is men! There's always someone you like!"

Tang Qiyue followed suit and persuaded.

Perhaps knowing that the men on the island really wouldn't have anything to do with her, Coral sighed and said, "Well, let's talk about it after the rally!"

At worst, she could sneak out and find a man.

There are plenty of men out there who can’t make ends meet.

Yu Niang and Tang Qiyue didn't dare to provoke her anymore, and quickly avoided the topic and talked about Yu Niang's man Dashan's legs.

Ever since Qin Mingyue broke his leg and reapplied medicine on it, Yu Niang has to stay at home and watch over Dashan every day, fearing that Dashan could not bear the pain and give up treatment.

The fisherman took the medicine given by Tang Qiyue, and she naturally chose to believe Tang Qiyue, but Dashan didn't know.

Originally, he was just lame and could still go out and do things, but now he can only lie in bed. Dashan feels like a waste and is in a bad mood.

Tang Qiuyue came here today to ask Yu Niang to ask Dashan to help weave some baskets if possible. She had a lot of vegetables in her yard and needed a lot of baskets. She could have exchanged them in the system, but found that the price was very high, so she got some mutated rattan and asked Dashan to help weave them.

Although Dashan is a man, he is very skillful with his hands.

Although he felt uncomfortable, it was only his legs that hurt, not his hands. Besides, he knew that the medicine he was using was given by Tang Qiyue, so how could he refuse?

I started weaving it on the bed.

Because the craftsmanship of making the vegetable basket was not complicated, and the sizes Tang Qiuyue wanted were available, he made a small one first and let Tang Qiuyue see if it would work.

Tang Qiyue naturally thought that it was not a big problem, as long as it was strong enough.

She checked the time and told Yu Niang: "Don't worry, Dashan. I'm not in a rush. Just take your time and edit it. The main thing is to find him something to do to distract his attention!"

The fisherman was very grateful and pulled Tang Qiyue to stay for dinner.

There was no way Tang Qiuyue would stay. It was getting colder and every household had little food.

After coming out of the fisherman's house, Shanhu also followed Tang Qiyue out.

Instead of going home, the two went to the beach.

The weather is very cold at this time, and there are not many good things to find at the beach, but there are still quite a lot of shellfish, some crabs, and some sea vegetables.

Tang Qiuyue mainly wanted to get some seaweed to take back. The weather has been cold recently, so she could use seaweed to make soup and blanch vegetables.

There were other people fishing at the beach, most of them were from the fishing village. Tang Qiuyue thought they all looked familiar, but she was not familiar with them. She just nodded and did not chat.

However, an old lady came over and greeted Tang Qiyue enthusiastically.

Shanhu explained to her in a low voice: "This is Aunt Xiahua!"

Tang Qiyue called someone, and Aunt Xia Hua said cheerfully, "As expected, he's from a big city. He's so pleasing to the eye!"

Aunt Xia Hua called Tang Qiyue and Shanhu to an area not far away: "There are a lot of shrimps there today. It's best to catch them and cook them directly!"

Tang Qiyue didn't understand Aunt Xia Hua's character, but Shanhu knew it very well. She didn't doubt what Aunt Xia Hua said, but was just curious why she was so enthusiastic.

The two followed Aunt Xia Hua to the place where there were shrimps. Sure enough, they saw quite a few shrimp holes. They didn't hesitate and started digging together.

Aunt Xia Hua was very skilled at digging for these seafood. While teaching Tang Qiyue how to find them, she looked at Shanhu and said, "Shanhu, tell me the truth. What are you thinking? Comrade Tang is here today, so you can't fool me!"

Tang Qiyue looked at Shanhu curiously.

Shanhu stamped her feet: "Auntie, didn't I tell you, no, really no!"

These words successfully aroused Tang Qiuyue's curiosity. She felt that what Shanhu would say next was a big gossip.
