Chapter 740 Red Pearl



"Hey, Qing, did you take the wrong fish? How come you brought out fish from Ah Wan's shop too?"

Fu Qing and Fang Min were about to push through the crowd to go back when they were stopped again by Yu Guixiang, who was watching the commotion from the dock. Fang Min immediately shielded Fu Qing behind her. Yu Guixiang's words were full of malice, clearly implying that Fu Qing had stolen Fu Wan's fish.

"Aunt Yu, this is what I'm giving to Aqing and the others to eat when they get home. Don't hold Aqing back, tell them to go home quickly."

"Oh dear, Ah Wan, don't protect this fool! Look at that lobster! Who takes a lobster that big to eat?"

Yu Guixiang's eyes were red with jealousy. In her eyes, Fu Qing was a fool, and her son had also been foolish for a few days before.

Why is Fu Wan so good to Fu Qing, but only donated two yuan to her own son?

Fu Wan chuckled twice, then looked coldly at Yu Guixiang and said, "Auntie, I was only at sea for a day and a night. In such a short time, you've already become the manager at the dock?"

“I can distribute the fish from my own boat as I please. Ah Qing is hardworking and not stupid at all. I'm giving her so much fish because she deserves it! Auntie, you should worry more about your own affairs and not interfere too much!”

"you!"

Yu Guixiang didn't expect Fu Wan to speak so bluntly, but Fu Wan wasn't afraid of her at all. The villagers around her weren't stupid either, and they immediately echoed her.

"Yes, Ah Wan is kind-hearted, and Ah Qing is efficient. These fish and shrimp are from their boat, so they can give them away however they want. I'm telling you, Widow Yu, you should mind your own business. It's just that Widow Wang isn't here right now, otherwise if you talk about her daughter like that, she'll tear you apart!"

Just as Liu Sanniang finished speaking, Wang Xiuer squeezed through the crowd.

"You damned Yu Guixiang, how dare you bully my daughter?!"

Wang Xiuer is quite a fighter. Fu Qing was just a little sleepy and didn't have the energy to fight with Yu Guixiang. Otherwise, with Fu Qing's strength, he could have easily knocked Yu Guixiang to the ground.

As soon as Wang Xiuer arrived, Yu Guixiang dared not speak anymore. She had fought with Wang Xiuer before, and although they shared the same surname, this woman was much more ruthless than Wang Zhaodi.

After Fu Dazhi was taken away by the police, neither of her two daughters-in-law treated her well. In particular, when she asked her eldest son to go back and get money to pull some strings, her eldest son's wife actually took the child and went back to her parents' home!

This is outrageous! That's why Yu Guixiang confronted Fu Qing, knowing Fu Qing's childlike nature meant she wouldn't argue back. It's only because there are so many people here, otherwise she would have had to sneak some seafood from Fu Qing's basket back; she hasn't had shrimp in ages!

Wang Xiuer glared fiercely at Yu Guixiang, and with just one look, she could guess what the woman was thinking.

It's just that my daughter is sleepy right now, otherwise she would have a good talk with Yu Guixiang.

Wang Xiuer grabbed Fu Qing and Fang Min, "Come on, let's go home! Mom bought pork and cooked rice today, just waiting for you to come home!"

She glanced at Fu Qing and Fang Min's baskets, which were brimming with seafood, and couldn't stop smiling.

"Ah Wan, thank you so much. I'll take Ah Qing and the others home first, and we'll come to your house to chat later!"

A while ago, her sister-in-law asked her older brother to bring over a beautiful and comfortable piece of fabric. She's been busy these past few days and just happened to make some underwear for Fu Wan.

Fu Wan didn't immediately grasp the meaning behind Wang Xiuer's words, and thought she was just being polite.

"It's alright, Auntie, you guys go back first, I'm about to head back too!"

She turned and glanced at the boat. Ye Lin and Fu Shi, who couldn't stay still, were also helping to move the fish. Fu Ming and Fu Liang were in charge of weighing the fish, and Chen Balang and a few others were also busy loading the fish onto the truck.

With these people busy taking care of things, Fu Wan simply took her own things, said goodbye to Boss Fu, and headed home.

When Fu Ming's ship docked, Ye Xiaocui heard about it from Fu Honghong's family next door. But she didn't have time to go to the dock. When Fu Wan and the others came back, they would definitely have to take a shower and wash their hair, and then she would have to prepare dinner.

She wasn't the only one busy; Qin Mingzhu and Fu Ling were also very sensible. The two children helped wash vegetables and sweep the floor in a very professional manner, which made Ye Xiaocui extremely happy.

"Woof woof woof!"

A childish bark rang out, and Fu Wan pushed open the courtyard gate, shouting at the two dogs that rushed towards her.

"Wangcai, Xiao Hei!"

Little Black was barking with its head tilted back, but when it saw that it was Fu Wan, it immediately shut up, wagged its tail, and circled around her.

"You little brat, you can't even recognize my footsteps!"

Fu Wan put down the basket in her hand, and Ye Xiaocui and the others ran out of the kitchen when they heard the noise.

"Ah Wan!"

"Mom!" "Godmother!"

"Why!"

Having not seen each other for a day and a night, Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu flanked Fu Wan, chattering away about the details of the sea voyage. Ye Xiaocui hurriedly took the things from Fu Wan's hands and urged, "There's hot water in the pot, go wash your hair and take a bath!"

"Alright!"

To be honest, although she hadn't been away for long, she still had a faint smell of the sea, probably because she had been dealing with fish and shrimp.

Looking at the buckets and baskets overflowing with fish, Ye Xiaocui immediately realized that Fu Wan and her team had had a great haul on this trip. A smile immediately spread across her face, and she hurriedly carried the fish into the kitchen to sort and categorize them.

Quickly pour the live animals into the water tank to keep them alive. As for the fresh ones, see if we need to add them to our dinner. And for those that can't be stored outside, we need to put them in bowls and put them in the refrigerator as soon as possible.

Wow, I'm quite busy!

Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu wanted to follow Fu Wan into the house, but Ye Xiaocui noticed Fu Wan's fatigue and quickly stopped them.

"Lingling, Mingzhu, come here quickly! There are a few water snails here, do you think we should remove them and keep the snail meat?"

What, there are snail shells?

Upon hearing this, Fu Ling immediately turned and ran towards the kitchen. Water-type conch—she didn't have this kind of conch in her treasure chest yet.

Seeing this, Qin Mingzhu followed. It was a rare moment of peace and quiet for Fu Wan, who hurriedly went inside to get clean clothes to prepare for a bath.

She took off her coat, and a red pearl fell onto the bed. Fu Wan hurriedly picked it up, only then remembering that she had this treasure.

She turned on the lights in the room and then held the pearl up to the light to examine it carefully.

While on the boat, because Fang Min and Fu Qing were there, she put the pearls in the small pocket inside her coat.

The pocket has a clasp, so things usually won't fall out.

The lighting wasn't very good when they were in the sea, so Fu Wan only remembered that the pearl was very red. Now that she took it out and looked at it carefully, she realized that the pearl was not only red, but also had no cracks at all.

Fu Wan was completely baffled as to why there was a pearl in the old sea turtle's mouth. But for some reason, this pearl, being this size, suddenly reminded her of the pearl she had found inside a fish's belly when she was first reborn.

These two pearls are about the same size; the only difference is the color of their surfaces.
