Chapter 26 Return to the Deserted Island

"Girl, have you bought your fishing boat?"

As she walked out of the boat shed, she heard an old man's voice from next door.

Su Qian looked up and saw the old man who had brought them to Haiping Town.

"Yeah." She responded softly and said no more.

Fortunately, I had drawn the awning curtain when I was in the boat awning just now, otherwise I would have been seen by the old man.

"Oh, then I won't be able to get money from the girl. What a pity!"

The old man's tone was full of regret.

Su Qian glanced at his greedy eyes and said nothing.

The silver hairpin I gave him should be worth at least a few hundred coins, which is enough!

Soon, Su Boquan came over with the blacksmith's boy. He had collected money from several families this time and came to buy iron pots and farm tools for reclaiming wasteland.

"Hey, Qian girl, why are you sitting on someone else's boat? Come here quickly, we have to go back soon!"

"Uncle Quan, I just bought this fishing boat. I'm waiting for my second uncle."

Su Qian explained this sentence softly.

Su Boquan looked around and said, "Okay, then Uncle Quan will take this old man's boat back first. We agreed on this before. If there is anything in the future, I will have to borrow Qian's boat for use."

"All right, as long as I don't go out to sea."

Su Qian nodded indifferently.

"Okay, since you want to wait for your second uncle, then Uncle Quan will go back first."

Su Boquan and Su Qian said hello, and the fishing boat quickly left her sight.

About a quarter of an hour later, Uncle Su appeared at the dock.

Behind him followed a servant carrying an iron pot, with two rolls of cloth and two pairs of embroidered shoes in his hands.

Su Qian then remembered that he had forgotten to buy shoes!

Fortunately, they were sold in her trading market, so she quickly bought a few pairs of shoes in dragon and pheasant sizes for herself and Gu Luyun before Uncle Su got on board, and put them in the boat awning.

Oh, and we also need a few barrels and tubs!

After Su's second uncle jumped onto the boat, he took the iron pot handed to him by the servant and put it on the deck.

"Ah Qian, you can go now!"

The second uncle of the Su family wiped the sweat from his face with his sleeve, then spoke loudly.

"Second Uncle..."

"Um?"

"I don't think I can row a boat..."

…

Half an hour later, Su Qian's fishing boat slowly and crookedly left the dock.

Su Qian followed the way the old man on the fishing boat rowed the boat and finally figured out the key to rowing the boat.

The second uncle of the Su family was amazed and said, "I didn't expect that rowing a boat is such a profound art. Ah Qian, you must teach me."

Su Qian was helpless, "Second Uncle, you still need to figure this out on your own."

"Well, when we get back, Second Uncle will learn it slowly. When Ah Qian comes to Haiping Town in the future, Second Uncle will do the painting for you."

The second uncle of the Su family scratched his head embarrassedly and said.

Afterwards, Su Qian's plan went more and more smoothly, and the island where they lived gradually came into sight.

When Su Qian arrived at the beach, it was low tide and a large group of people were picking fish and shrimps on the beach.

"Look, there comes another boat!"

The children screamed happily and ran towards Su Qian and his friends.

Su Qian looked at those carefree children and couldn't help but smile.

After bringing the bow of the fishing boat close to one of the reefs, Su Qian walked to the bow and hooked the anchor of the fishing boat onto the reef to secure the boat. He then sat at the bow and looked at the people running over.

"Ah Qian, did you row this boat back by yourself?"

Su Xi screamed and rushed over, her face full of joy.

"Daughter, haven't you seen your father?"

The second uncle of the Su family asked Su Xi with a helpless look on his face, holding the things he bought.

Su Xi waved her hand, "Dad, you go ahead and do your thing. I'm going to help Ah Qian move things."

The other Su clan members behind her also came over and looked at the fishing boat with only Uncle Su and Su Qian on board and smacked their lips, "Qian girl, why is there no boatman on this boat?"

The second uncle of the Su family said proudly, "This boat was bought by our Ah Qian."

"Wow, Qian girl, you are so amazing!"

The Su clan members were amazed and asked, "Then when we go to Haiping Town in the future, can we take a ride on your boat, Qianyatou?"

They all asked Su Qian questions at once.

"Of course, if I don't go fishing, it's fine. But..."

Su Qian curled her lips and looked at everyone, "Can you row a boat?"

“…”

Afterwards, the second aunt of the Su family, along with Su He and Gu Luyun, rushed over after hearing the news and helped the two move their things back.

As soon as she arrived at the door of her house, Su Qian fanned herself with her sleeves, and saw Su Boquan and two others carrying her family's iron pot walking towards her from the east.

"Uncle Quan, what's up?"

Su Qian asked, looking at the two hoes for clearing land in his hands.

"Oh, that's right! My father said that since everyone has a pot now, we should eat our own food. Also, my father asked us to give you these two hoes, saying that we can go to the center of the island to open up wasteland tomorrow."

Su Qian shook his head slightly, pointed to a few picks and axes leaning against a rock corner and said, "Thank you Uncle Quan and the old patriarch. I have already bought these things."

Su Boquan looked in the direction of Su Qian's finger. He frowned slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but finally changed his words, "Okay, if you have anything, just come to me."

Afterwards, he instructed the two people behind him to put Su Qian's iron pot on the stove and went back.

Su Qian found the ten big meat buns he had bought and gave one to each person.

"Mm, it smells good."

Su Xi couldn't wait to take a bite, and said to Su Qian with a bright smile on her face.

After finishing the meat buns, Su Qian began to pack up the things she brought back.

First, the stone house had to be covered with tarpaulin so that they would no longer have to sleep on leaves.

She took another one and gave it to Su Xi, "Sister Xi, this is for you!"

When she bought it, she also bought one for Su's second uncle and his family.

"Wow, our Ah Qian is so nice, Trojan~"

Su Xi happily kissed Su Qian on the forehead.

Su Qian: “…”

After laying the oilcloth, Su Qian moved the cloth and cotton into the stone house.

These fabrics still need Gu Luyun to make clothes and quilts, as she cannot do these needlework by herself.

When everything was almost cleaned up, Su Qian took an axe and prepared to go to the woods behind the rock to chop some trees.

During the apocalypse, she had survived in the wilderness and made some simple wooden beds and wooden tables, so she planned to make some out of it.

"Ah Qian, where are you going?"

When the second uncle of the Su family came out of the stone house after spreading the oilcloth, he saw Su Qian holding a big axe and asked hurriedly.

"Oh, I'm going to go cut some trees and make some wooden beds and wooden tables."

Su Qian responded casually.

"Let your uncle accompany you! There is a carpenter among our Su clan who is very good at making tables, chairs and benches. Let him help you make a set, what do you think?"

Su's second uncle suggested.
