Chapter 82

As the saying goes, the deeper the love, the harsher the criticism.

The two children who were so bold today went out to sea without telling their families were punished when they returned.

The first time she was spanked, Yun Jiao covered her bottom, which had been slapped several times, and her pretty little face turned bright red.

She used to watch her brothers get beaten up and laugh out loud.

Now look what's happened, karma has finally come back to haunt him.

Of course, Yun Xiaowu fared even worse, screaming as he was whipped with a thin stick.

Although Shen Yunlian and the others felt sorry for the little guy, they had to teach him a lesson!

"Do you know you were wrong?"

Yun Jiao covered her bottom and stubbornly refused to speak.

"I'll be fine."

Yunlin Hai was very anxious: "Who can say for sure? The ocean is so dangerous, with sharks, waves, and what if you get a leg cramp while swimming?"

Yun Jiao sniffed: "No way."

Grandma Yun chased them away and then carried Yun Jiao in her arms.

"Jiaojiao, we're just worried about you."

"Your grandma, your dad, and your mom all know you're different from ordinary people, but everyone's afraid. You don't know, we've seen the waves sweep people away with our own eyes. In the blink of an eye, you can't catch up anymore. The sea really eats people. If you die, you can't even find your body. We're really scared."

Yun Jiao had her head down, but looked up at her when she heard this.

Grandma Yun stroked her hair and told her many stories.

These are all things that happened in the village.

Some people go out to sea and never come back.

Some people drowned at the beach, while others were swept away by the waves and never returned.

“We fishermen live off the sea, which is a gift from the sea. But the sea is also dangerous. Sometimes the weather changes too quickly. One second it's sunny and clear, and the next second the wind and waves can capsize the boat and people can just disappear like that.”

Therefore, we fishermen risk our lives. It's precisely because we understand the dangers all too well that we're so afraid. If anything happens to you and Xiao Wu, what will happen to our father, mother, and us?"

Yun Jiao peeked out slightly and cautiously glanced at the other people in the family.

Everyone surrounded her, their eyes filled with worry; her mother and aunt's eyes were even red.

For the first time, little Yun Jiao felt a pang of guilt.

She knew she wouldn't be in any trouble.

Because she was a merman in her previous life, she also possessed some of the abilities of a merman in this life.

But the marine life in this life is much gentler and easier to deal with than in the last, which is why I dare to go out on adventures at such a young age.

But... my parents don't know that.

Yun Jiao hesitated for a moment: "Father, Mother, can you let my brothers go out first?"

Grandpa Yun glanced at his grandsons and said, "You all go out first."

Yun Chendong and the others left without saying anything.

Yun Jiao then said to the elders, "I will be fine because I can breathe underwater."

"Wha...what?!"

It took everyone a while to react, and they all stared at her with wide eyes.

I doubted that I had misheard.

"How could you..."

How could anyone breathe in the sea?
To prove that she could really breathe underwater, Yun Jiao asked her mother to fetch a basin of water and buried her face in it without hesitation.

Then, after a long time, when everyone in the family was worried, he raised his face.

Her little face was still wet as she asked, "How long has it been?"

Yunlinhe answered in a daze.

"It should have been about ten minutes."

Yun Jiao said with a hint of smugness, "See? What I said is true."

Grandpa Yun, puffing on his pipe, asked, "Jiaojiao, when did you realize you could breathe underwater?" "While swimming."

She tapped her fingers nervously, too embarrassed to look at anyone's expressions.

"Because, because I'm different from others, I don't dare to say it."

Grandpa Yun patted her head: "You did the right thing."

He suddenly became stern, his aged yet sharp eyes fixed on the others in the room.

“You guys remember this: no one is to tell anyone about Jiaojiao outside this room, not even those boys.”

“The fewer people who know about it, the better.”

Those boys are treating Jiaojiao well now because she's their only sister.

But they will eventually get married and have their own wives and children.

There are too many variables; Jiaojiao was right to let them leave.

Grandpa Yun said to his son and daughter-in-law, "You two go out too."

The group exchanged glances and then obediently left.

In any case, the old man is good to Jiaojiao, and I guess there's something he doesn't want them to hear.

Grandpa Yun pulled Yun Jiao aside and gave her a serious explanation.

"Jiaojiao, remember this: if one day your ability is discovered by others and your life is threatened because of it, then try to find help from the country. Our country is more reliable than those people. It would be best to find someone who is in the military."

Yun Jiao nodded: "Yes, I understand, Grandpa."

Grandpa Yun patted her head: "Let's try not to find out if we can avoid it. We don't need you to be very successful. You have several older brothers to support you. As for our family, it's enough to have enough to eat and wear. Everyone can make their own way in the future. We're not some old people who can't move around anymore."

They didn't have much ambition; enough money was enough for them. Their greatest wish was for the whole family to live in harmony and have a good relationship.

When I came out of the room, I found the whole family pointing and commenting on the seafood I had brought back.

Yun Xiaowu is tough; he only howled when he was being beaten, but now he's excitedly telling everyone how he rode the orca and wreaked havoc.

The exaggerated language and expressions made Yun Jiao deeply understand what the art of language is.

"Jiaojiao also met a strange fish in the sea, and it took her to catch sea urchins. It's a pity I couldn't go down and see..."

Grandpa Yun: "That should be a damselfish."

The old man has lived by the sea for most of his life, so he has some experience.

"Sir, what kind of fish is this? Its color is so beautiful!"

"This... is a woman in blue!"

"The price at the Qingyi purchasing point is 15 yuan per jin (500g), so hurry up and take all these fish there to sell."

Yun Jiao: "Do you sell sea urchins too?"

"The sea urchins aren't for sale; I'm saving them for you."

Having spent so much time together, everyone naturally knows that Yun Jiao really enjoys eating sea urchins.

Grandma Yun rolled up her sleeves: "With so many sea urchins, let's make steamed sea urchin with egg and sea urchin fried rice today!"

"Great!"

The atmosphere at the Yun family home immediately became cheerful.

Yun Jiao, thinking about Da Bai and the three puppies, took out a few sea urchins.

Anyway, there are plenty of sea urchins in the ocean, I can just go and collect them next time.

Grandma Yun didn't stop them. Yun Linhai and Yun Linhe went to sell fish, while the rest of them sat together trimming the spines of the sea urchins and digging out the roe, busy and happy.

Acquisition point...

Awang didn't expect anyone to come at this hour, especially since it was raining outside.

"Brother Lin Hai, Brother Lin He, what brings you here?"

Yun Linhe's mouth was stretched so wide it almost reached his ears.

"I'm bringing you some nice stuff."

"What's good... Holy crap!"

This is really good stuff!!!
