Chapter 28 Sea Serpent

"Ahem...my mouth is a little thirsty, I thought this was water."

Yin Huaishan forced himself to calm down, turned around and left the kitchen again.

This time Jiang Wan didn't laugh, but Yin Ning laughed non-stop. Yin Huaishan, who hadn't walked far yet, had red ears.

The atmosphere at home was very good, and the piled up sea urchins now had a place to go. Jiang Wan wanted to try the stall for another day, but the sea urchins were gone, and her mother also wanted to use the mint leaves, so the remaining ones were not enough for her to drink at home, let alone for the stall.

So the two sisters stayed at home in the afternoon to learn how to cut fabrics and make clothes from Song Wenhui, and to take measurements.

Jiang Wan's face was filled with painful expressions.

It is late June now and the weather is hot, but she is still wearing long sleeves. Even so, she has to add another layer underneath!

People in ancient times were really tired.

They cannot dress freely, speak freely, socialize freely, and even marriage requires the approval of their parents.

Fortunately, A Niang is still the same A Niang. In a way, I am freer and happier than 90% of the girls in this dynasty.

People should be content with what they have. Just wear it. When the weather gets warmer, I will ask my mother to make a bra for me. If I can't wear it, my cousin and aunt will definitely want to wear it.

Anyway, no one can see it when you wear it inside.

Only those who are cool know.

Jiang Wan's mind was racing and she felt more and more sleepy the more she thought about it. She fell asleep on the bed before she was even dressed.

Yin Ning smiled when she saw Rourou, and grabbed the hem of her skirt to fan her cousin gently. In her dream, Jiang Wan felt as if she had returned to her modern home, with the fan blowing, and she slept more soundly.

Seeing her daughter like this, Song Wenhui was indescribably happy. Her daughter had been smiling more and more recently, and finally she looked a little more lively. She was always scared when she thought of her lifeless appearance on the road to exile, and she always felt that if she was wrong, something would happen to her daughter.

The girl had grown up and didn't talk to her about anything. She and her husband had to take care of the elderly on the road, and we were exhausted after a day's work, so we didn't have time to talk. It was only after her parents-in-law passed away that she gradually realized that her daughter was not depressed because of exile.

Although I still don't know why my daughter was depressed those days, it's enough that she has become cheerful again. Wanwan has helped a lot, and I have to love her more in the future.

The mother and daughter stopped talking. One was quietly sewing clothes while the other was fanning herself gently.

Jiang Wan was sleeping soundly, but Fu Yuanling, who had come all the way to find her, waited until he was sweating all over, but no one showed up. He asked a servant to ask around along the way, but nothing came out. Most people didn't know there was a stall selling water and sea urchins on the roadside, and those who knew about it just glanced at it without exchanging any words, so they naturally didn't know the details of the two people.

When it was almost dark, Fu Yuanling had no choice but to return home.

"Uncle! Where's the sea urchin? Where's the sea urchin? Where did you hide it?"

As soon as he entered the yard, a fat boy rushed towards him. Fortunately, he had practiced martial arts and was able to hold his ground, otherwise he would have been thrown out together with him.

"Can't you be a little quieter, little brat? You keep bumping into me and I'm about to get internal injuries from you."

The fat boy frowned and said bluntly: "Uncle, you are so useless. I bump into my uncle every day and he is still fine."

Fu Yuanling: “…”

Brat, can you speak?

"snort!"

"Uncle, stop whining. Where's the sea urchin? Didn't you say you'd buy some for me?"

The little fat boy blinked his eyes and looked at his uncle hopefully, imagining that he would suddenly make things appear from his hands like he did before.

Fu Yuanling's scalp was slightly numb, and he smiled awkwardly. He explained while moving towards his own yard.

"Yuan, it's not that your uncle won't buy it for you, it's just that the stall is closed today. Wait until tomorrow, I'll go buy it for you tomorrow morning!"

When he heard that there was no purchase, the little fat boy's watery eyes blinked and suddenly filled with water.

"Don't cry, ancestor!"

Fu Yuanling thought to himself that something was wrong and wanted to cover his mouth but it was too late. His nephew was already howling and running towards his grandmother's yard.

"Grandma! My uncle lied to me! Wow..."

The little guy was full of energy, and his howl could be heard by most of the yard.

Fu Yuanling had no choice but to run to his mother's yard to explain.

Alas, there was clearly no sea urchin when the brat woke up yesterday, so why should I bother to ask him to eat my own?

After eating, his appetite was whetted. He wanted to eat sea urchin even though he didn't eat during the day. But there was not a single piece of sea urchin at the pier. He could only go back to where he came from and try to buy it from the two girls, but they didn't have any stall.

Can you blame him?

Of course not.

I will definitely be reasonable, right?

“Third brother!!”

It's Daddy's voice!

Fu Yuanling was startled suddenly and walked into the yard sadly.

He was wrong. Since he had a grandson, his son was no longer a treasure. How could he be reasonable in matters concerning a grandson? He was definitely wrong.

Tomorrow, tomorrow he must buy some sea urchins!

Jiang Wan didn't know that someone was thinking of buying sea urchin from her, so she slept late the next day, which was unusual for her.

Because the tide didn't come that early today, she didn't have to get up early.

At this time, her mother and aunt went to the mountains to collect herbs, her cousin was at home cutting coarse cloth to make clothes, and her uncle went out early in the morning for some unknown reason. She couldn't stay at home, so she said goodbye to her cousin and went to the sea with a basket and a bucket on her back.

The wooden barrel was a bit heavy, so it wasn't too tiring to carry it to the sea without water. She was mainly worried about encountering the same situation as yesterday with the grouper. It would be a pity if she really encountered it and had nothing to carry it. If there was no water in the basket, the fish would become dead and she couldn't sell it for a high price, so she took a bucket out to be safe.

When she got to the beach, she put the barrel aside and went to the rocks with a small stick.

I didn't look for any particular seafood today, I just picked up whatever I saw.

There were a few faint splashes in the water, which were fragmentary and weak, and I knew it wasn't a fish. This was not the sound of a fish's tail struggling against the water.

Jiang Wan walked around the reef and looked into the puddle. It was a bit turbid.

She couldn't see clearly what was under the water and didn't know what was inside, so she certainly wouldn't reach out to touch it. The cautious little girl poked it with a stick, and the next moment she saw a small snake with black and white ring patterns come out of the water and swim leisurely into the crevice of the reef.

OMG! Sea snake!

Jiang Wan was so frightened that her heart was pounding and her hands were a little stiff.

Sea snakes are extremely poisonous creatures. If you get bit by one, you will die without even being able to see your mother for the last time.

It's a safe bet...
