Chapter 49: Deny This
On the beach of Longyu Island.
While Su He was picking fish and shrimps, he suddenly saw a person floating towards him from a distance.
"Sister, look, is it a person?"
He pulled Su Xi forward to check, "Hey, look at the piece of wood in his hand, is it the one on Sister Qian's boat?"
Su Xi stepped forward and observed carefully. "It seems a bit like that. How come he has Ah Qian's plank? Did something happen to little Ah Qian?"
"Ah? No way? Sister Qian is very powerful. She is the messenger of the sea god. How could anything happen to her?"
Su He glanced at the man in black with a puzzled look on his face.
"Ah He, carry him back first, then find a way to wake him up, and then we'll know if Ah Qian is in trouble!"
After thinking for a while, Su Xi suggested.
"Okay, then you hold the barrel and I'll carry him!"
…
Here, Su Qian returned to her fishing boat and caught a lot of fish with the fishing net. Then she exchanged some cotton wool from the market and took out the hoes used for clearing the land that were placed in the space.
Since they were going to open up wasteland and plant crops, they also needed vegetable seeds, potatoes and sweet potatoes! She also bought some from the market.
"Old Starfish, I'm going back! What about you?"
Su Qian asked as he looked at the six-pointed starfish jumping on the deck at the stern of the ship.
"Little girl, I'm not called Old Starfish. I have a name!"
The six-pointed starfish's voice was full of displeasure, "My name is Chen, you can call me Xingchen."
"Stars?"
What a nice name. Is this guy planning to become a star in the sky?
She curled her lips, "Okay, old starfish, do you plan to stay here, or go back to Longyu Island with me?"
"I would like to go back with you, but you have to take good care of your man and make sure he doesn't bully me or threaten me."
The six-pointed starfish muttered softly.
"What do you mean he's from my family? What are you talking about? I don't know him well, okay?"
Su Qian rolled his eyes speechlessly.
"How is that possible? His father told me that you are his wife-to-be. How could he not be familiar with you?"
The six-pointed starfish jumped onto her shoulder and said.
"Me? His future wife?"
Su Qian was dumbfounded. When did she have a fiancé?
Wait, it seems that there was an arranged marriage in the original body’s memory.
The third prince of Dongli Kingdom?
Then, it definitely isn’t Yan Qinghan!
However, the marriage with the third prince of Dongli Kingdom probably doesn't count, right?
The reason why they were arranged to be married was because his mother was a favorite and she had her eyes on the military power held by General Su. But now...
If the Third Prince recognized this marriage, why did he ignore it and not show up when the original body was exiled?
So Su Qian tacitly agreed that the marriage was automatically cancelled.
Getting married in ancient times was so troublesome!
Once a woman gets married, she becomes a man's vassal. She cannot do what she wants and can only stay at home to take care of her husband and children!
This kind of life is not what Su Qian wants!
She likes the kind of unrestrained and free life!
Just like now, you can swim freely in the sea, you don’t have to care about what others think, you can do whatever you want!
Perhaps, she could directly register the Su family's household registration on Longyu Island. After all, it was much more comfortable here than those fishing boats on the seaside.
It's just a little far from town, but it's the same as having fishing boats!
After things are settled, she can also go look for General Su. Everyone can live a leisurely life on Dragon Fish Island. Isn't it much better than the intrigues in the court?
When Su Qian rowed the fishing boat back to the dock, she found Su He had been waiting for her at the dock.
"Sister Qian, I'm glad you're okay. We thought something happened to you!"
Only when he saw her fishing boat did Su He feel relieved.
Su Qian was slightly surprised. What could happen to her?
"That's right. Today we found a man on the beach. He was holding the planks of your fishing boat in his arms."
Su He noticed that a piece of plank was missing from Su Qian's boat, and continued, "My sister and I thought about taking him back to ask what happened, but he still hasn't woken up!"
Su Qian raised her eyebrows.
Is that person so lucky?
It actually drifted to her Dragon Fish Island?
There are quite a few undercurrents around this island, but he is not dead!
"Really? Then send him away when he wakes up! We should not leave any strangers on this island!"
Su Qian said calmly, "Let's go back. There are fish and shrimps in the cabin. We can use them to cook at noon."
"Okay, I'll go get a wooden barrel to carry it back later."
Su He helped Su Qian with tools such as hoes and potatoes and sweet potatoes, while Su Qian carried cotton wool and vegetable seeds, and the two walked towards the stone fort.
"Sister Qian, now that you have bought the tools and seeds, we can grow some food!"
Su He looked at the tools in his hands happily, "I went to see that large piece of wasteland today. There are no stones and the soil is fertile. As long as we remove the grass, we can plant seeds."
He suddenly remembered something, "Oh, by the way, Sister Qian, the sweet potatoes and potatoes we were given were snatched away by the Su clan. Did you buy them in Haiping Town?"
"Yes, I saw some being sold in that town, so I bought some. One seed of these potatoes and sweet potatoes can grow a bunch!"
Su Qian said with a smile.
"Well, but speaking of the Su family, they really went too far. They took away everything in the house, including the banknotes on my aunt's body! They didn't even let us go."
When talking about this matter, Su He became angry.
What?
Even the two hundred taels of silver from Gu Luyun were taken away?
A sharp light flashed across Su Qian's eyes, and then disappeared.
Forget it, let’s consider this banknote as buying out their connection with the Su family on that island!
From now on, if they come to provoke me again, don't blame me for being ruthless!
After arriving at the stone fort, Su He placed the things in his hand at the entrance of the stone fort, and took a large wooden barrel and the plank that Su Qian had thrown to Dongfang Yi from the kitchen and went to the dock.
Su Qian carried Cotton Wool back to her room.
but!
When she found that the man in black whom she had met in the sea before was lying on her bed, the indifferent expression on her face disappeared!
Oh my god!
Why was this bastard in her room?
"Ah Qian, you're back?"
Su Xi came out of the kitchen carrying a bowl of porridge. "Do you know that man? When he was washed onto the beach by the waves, he was still holding your plank in his hands!"
"No. My plank just fell into the sea by accident."
Su Qian decided not to admit it.
I haven't met him, um, I haven't met him.
"Why is he in my room?"
Su Qian frowned slightly, but still asked.
"Oh, isn't your room the closest to the door?" Su He carried it over directly. "I have already prepared your room for you. It's next to mine upstairs, the one at the back."
Su Xi explained.
