"Sister Erhua..."
Wen Shishi immediately rushed over and took Niu Erhua's hand.
Niu Erhua bent down, her movements skillful and efficient, and hugged Wen Shishi in her arms.
For some reason, Niu Erhua's actions naturally reminded the Song brothers of their second brother.
He speaks very frankly and acts very decisively.
Song Chengjian and his brothers went forward to greet them.
Chen Hai explained the purpose of their visit on behalf of everyone.
It turned out that the fishermen had come to visit Song Chenghou on their own initiative after learning that he had fallen ill and was in critical condition.
They were worried about disturbing Song Chenghou's rest, but each family sent a representative.
"Second Young Master, we've discussed it..."
You don't need to go beachcombing anymore.
You need to send people to procure timber, and the second young master is even preparing explosives to ensure everyone's safety...
She had to treat and care for the eldest son, cook, and look after Shishi...
Everyone felt that the burden was too heavy.
We've been discussing this, and from now on, each family will contribute a small amount based on their own beachcombing experience, and give you a share in return.
You won't have to cook separately, which will save you a lot of time.
Starting the fire, cooking, plus washing and cleaning—it may not seem like much work...
One person can work all day long!
Chen Hai's voice betrayed his worry, "Previously, the eldest young master was concerned about everyone..."
No one really knew that the eldest son's background was this bad...
If I had known, I would never have let the eldest young master worry so much about everyone!
The fishermen and fisherwomen behind them echoed their sentiments.
"Yeah yeah!"
"That's right! That's right!"
"Who knew the eldest young master's health was so poor..."
Otherwise, we must make sure the eldest son is well cared for, and we'll handle anything that needs to be done!
......
The Song brothers were deeply touched upon hearing this.
Before he could speak, two monks walked over from the side, carrying two bowls of sweet potato porridge.
The second and third brothers stepped forward and respectfully accepted the gift with both hands.
The monk bowed with one hand and said, "Master, I originally intended to visit you in person..."
But he said that the eldest son had fallen ill, and the patrons had important matters to discuss...
To avoid the hassle of greeting everyone if I come over, I won't take up any of your time.
My master asked me to pass on a message to all the young masters...
If you need any help, feel free to go to him anytime; the temple doors are always open to you.
The second and third brothers, along with their younger brothers, thanked their two senior brothers and watched them leave.
Song Chengjian looked at his younger brothers, about to speak and politely decline the fishermen's offer...
With a typhoon approaching, the Song family had some stored grain that Jiang Xinyu had given them last time...
Fishermen don't have that many.
Although the Song family made the decision last time and distributed some to each family...
After so many days, there should be very little left.
"Second Young Master, if you are refusing, there's no need to say anything more!"
Chen Hai raised his hand, displaying for the first time the demeanor of an elder.
"You've already thought too much about everyone!"
They went to the Dong people to collect timber to build a roof...
You also took everyone into consideration.
If it weren't for you all, we wouldn't have had the money and supplies to raise to buy timber...
When a typhoon hits, who knows what will become of the yard that we finally managed to build?
You not only helped rescue the fishermen, but also helped everyone build houses, not to mention the other assistance you provided...
Since we're living together, you didn't treat us like a burden...
You are, of course, our own people whom we need to look after and care for.
"Helping to express our feelings and share some food—what is that compared to what the eldest son and the other young masters do?"
After Chen Hai finished speaking, the others echoed his words:
"Exactly! Are they treating us like outsiders?"
"You all make such a big deal out of such a small matter. How can we trouble you if we need anything in the future?"
"That's right! We'll listen to Uncle Hai! Whatever Uncle Hai says, we'll do!"
......
Upon hearing this, Song Chengjian knew he couldn't contradict Chen Hai in front of the other fishermen.
Niu'erhua then spoke up, "I've discussed it with Uncle Hai, and we'll be working on it during this time..."
I'll take care of Shishi, my older brother..."
Niu Erhua's older brother, Niu Erzhuang, has a kind and honest smile and comes from a family of fishermen...
The injuries I sustained while being kidnapped by pirates are no longer visible.
Niu Dazhuang said, "I'll take care of the eldest young master..."
Before the Song family could politely decline, he proactively explained, "My father was once bedridden for a period of time, and I'm good at turning him over, washing him, and massaging his legs..."
Besides, I'm strong, so turning over patients is much easier for me.
Looking at the genuine smiles on Niu Dazhuang and his sister's faces, and then at Chen Hai and the other fishermen...
The second brother, Song Chengjian, didn't speak, but the third brother stepped forward.
