Fisherwoman: After my divorce, I became rich by fishing at sea

Uncle Fu also understood Fu Wan’s concerns and nodded in agreement.

"Then I'll take it. I'm in for another treat, old man."

Fu Wan also knew about Uncle Fu's situation. He was injured when he went out to fight the Japanese in his early years, and later he picked up a mute woman as his wife.

In the early years, the couple relied on Uncle Fu's fishing and Aunt Fu's farming for a living.

Later, Grandpa Fu got old and could no longer go out to sea. Fortunately, the government gave him a subsidy every month, so the two old men could barely make ends meet.

In the past, Boss Fu would send some fish to Uncle Fu when he went out to sea. When he was a child and didn't have enough to eat, Uncle Fu did the same and sent him some fish from time to time.

If it wasn't unreasonable and Fu Lao Da's biological father was still alive, Uncle Fu would have taken Fu Lao Da in as his own son.

What did the old man say back then? There is blood in this kid's eyes, just like me when I was young!

After saying goodbye to Uncle Fu, Fu Wan took Fu Ling home.

Ye Xiaocui was already cooking breakfast at home. When she saw Fu Wan coming back with a bucket, she remembered what she had forgotten.

"Just in time, I'll steam some crabs and snapper. After we eat this morning, everyone can go to sleep!"

Fu Wan nodded in agreement, and then remembered something else.

"Mom, I have to go see Sister Wang. I wonder how she's recovering."

Ye Xiaocui sighed when she thought of Wang Panlan, "That's what I want. Hurry up and change your clothes, and take Lingling to kowtow to your sister-in-law."

“This is also a hard life.”

"I remember I still have an unopened can of malted milk in my cupboard. Go buy some peach cakes from the village chief's daughter-in-law and send them over."

"I know."

Fu Wan agreed, took a bucket and scooped half a bucket of hot water, and took Fu Ling to the separate bathroom in the house. The mother and daughter took a bath one after another and changed into clean clothes.

After drifting on the sea for a whole night, and smelling of various fish, they were completely disgusted by the smell.

Only the villagers on the dock were curious and their minds were all on the fish, so they had no time to see if these people looked human.

After taking a shower, Fu Wan felt refreshed. She took out milk powder from the cabinet and made a bowl for Fu Ling and herself to fill their stomachs.

Of course, she didn't forget to make a bowl of tea for Ye Xiaocui in the kitchen, and Ye Xiaocui glared at her.

"I'm already such a grown-up, why should I still drink milk powder? What a waste!"

"Mom, you need calcium supplements when you get older. Drinking this milk is good for you!"

Modern milk powder is divided into middle-aged and elderly milk powder. Although there was a shortage of supplies in the 1980s and children could not afford it, Fu Wan still tried to let everyone share the milk she had at home.

Ye Xiaocui couldn't persuade Fu Wan, and when she saw her mother pinching her nose and taking a big sip, Fu Wan took the money and walked towards the small shop in the village with satisfaction.

Things in the small shops in the village are not cheap either. Biscuits are one cent per pound more expensive than those outside, but they are convenient.

Fu Wan bought two large bags of peach cakes without blinking, weighed some biscuits, paid for them, and then took Fu Ling home.

The village chief's daughter-in-law couldn't help shaking her head as she looked at Fu Wan's back. This daughter of Fu Lao Da was too generous. She bought so many things without saying much and just paid for them, saving the trouble of bargaining.

If Fu Wan knew what she was thinking, she would definitely have to explain. One or two cents was not a lot of money to her, and she would save a few cents by spending half a day talking.

What's more, the village chief rented the boat to his family, and there was a bumper harvest of goods from the market last night, so it is only natural for him to take care of the business.

By the time Fu Wan had breakfast at home and knocked on Wang Panlan's door with Fu Ling and the gifts, it was already past ten in the morning.

Wang Panlan was curled up on her shabby bed, staring at the ground with her eyes open in a daze.

Some villagers felt sorry for her because she was beaten all over by the three leprosy brothers, while others said that she was an unlucky star and that she had brought bad luck to the three leprosy brothers, who were all forced to squat under the fence.

If Fu Dalaizi hadn't lost any relatives nearby, he probably wouldn't even have a place to stay.

My family members didn't even come to ask me a question, they just told me that the family had no money and that if I planned to remarry, I could ask them to look for me.

This is an attempt to earn the bride price again!

Wang Panlan sneered and turned over in self-mockery.

In fact, she couldn't explain why she climbed over the back wall to tell Fu Wan the news despite being beaten by Fu Sanlaizi.

Maybe that's the case. She touched her flat belly. A small life had once been nurtured here. If she were still alive, she would be as lively and cute as Fu Ling.

Unfortunately, just a few months into her pregnancy, she was beaten by the drunk Fu Dalaizi and the child was lost.

From then on, she hated Fu Dalaizi's family. If it weren't for Fu Sanlaizi who tricked her into marrying him, and if it weren't for a beast like Fu Dalaizi, how could her life have become what it is now?

Of course, her own family members were not good people either. They were a bunch of leeches sucking blood from her daughter's body. Calling them leeches was an insult to leeches.

"Sister-in-law, sister-in-law! Are you home?"

A clear female voice came from outside the door, bringing Wang Panlan, who was immersed in her own world, back to reality.

“Here…here! Who, who is it?”

It took her a long time to find her voice and she asked in a hoarse voice.

"I'm Fu Wan."

Wang Panlan's tense nerves finally relaxed. She thought it was her brother-in-law from her mother's family who was obsessed with money.

"Wait a minute, I'll open the door."

To prevent anyone from coming in, she locked the doors to the yard and the room, and used a lot of things to block them.

Fu Wan and Fu Ling were waiting at the door. They heard the sound of people moving back and forth in the room for a while, and finally the door creaked open from the inside.

"Is...is something wrong?"

After just two days of not seeing each other, Fu Wan couldn't believe that the person in front of her who had lost so much weight was Wang Panlan, who had tried so hard to inform her a few days ago.

"Sister-in-law, I came to see you."

Wang Panlan saw Fu Ling's little head popping out from behind Fu Wan and looking at her, and she forced a smile on her numb face.

"Come in and sit down!"

After saying that, she limped into the kitchen to get a bowl to pour water for Fu Wan and her daughter. Seeing that she was about to go and do something, Fu Wan quickly stopped her.

"Sister-in-law, don't bother. I just came to see you. Thank you so much for last time."

After she finished speaking, she pushed Fu Ling again and said, "Lingling, kowtow to your aunt and say thank you. If it weren't for her mother, she would have found you so quickly."

It turned out that it was this aunt who informed her mother. Fu Ling stepped forward and knelt down. Before Wang Panlan could stop him, the child kowtowed heavily to her.

"Thank you, aunt!"

Wang Panlan looked at Fu Ling's well-behaved appearance and quickly helped her up.

"Hurry up and get up. Auntie can't help much."

Tears welled up in her eyes at some point. "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."

"If my child were still alive, he would be as old as you."
