Time Travel: A Fisherwoman Goes to the Sea to Raise a Baby

Xu Yiyi asked out of curiosity.

The children on the boat were facing a great enemy, and Xu Anyang, who was standing next to them, was about to push the boat out.

Seeing this situation, Xu Wenli did not dare to waste time.

"Ghost Tooth Reef, where the Fuchang sank more than a decade ago."

After hearing this, Xu Yiyi became a little confused.

This Ghost Tooth Reef is probably very far away from Ping'an Town, otherwise she would have heard of it.

Xu Anyang's expression changed. When he was a child, he heard his grandfather say that the place was very dangerous.

"Don't go to that place, Sister Yiyi. There are many whirlpools, strong undercurrents, and there are broken wood and iron nails from sunken ships underwater. If you're not careful, you'll be swept away or scratched. Most importantly, pirates often appear in that area."

The pirates in that area are even more daring and dare to go against the government.

How could these small fishermen withstand the brutality of pirates?

"That's not a big deal. As long as Madam Xu agrees, we'll handle the pirates. All you have to do is go down to the water and find a boat."

Xu Wenli said this and indicated that Gao Ming was there.

He casually pulled out a silver ingot weighing five taels from his sleeve and said, "This is the deposit. I'll pay another fifteen taels after the deal is done."

Twenty taels of silver! This is enough for an ordinary fisherman to live comfortably for two years.

Xu Yiyi looked at the piece of silver and sneered.

"Where are the beggars sent away?"

"And why are you looking for me?" she suddenly asked. "There are plenty of men who can swim at the beach."

The sea breeze blew by, bringing with it a salty and humid smell.

Xu Yiyi felt that the two men were too insincere, and ignoring their dissuasion, he signaled Xu Anyang to get on the boat and leave.

"Madam Xu, we can still discuss the money. You name a price, as long as you are satisfied..."

Xu Wenli spoke quickly.

“Anyang!”

Xu Anyang pushed the small boat out and got on another small boat while glaring at the two of them.

A Yue stood on the boat and looked at her angrily. If it weren’t for Er’er coaxing her all the time.

He would have gone down to beat people up a long time ago.

The two men watched helplessly as two small boats raised their tattered sails and slowly sailed away from the shore.

"idiot!"

After the boat sailed away, Xu Wenli turned around and glared at Gao Mingzai. His good temper was gone, and veins bulged on his forehead. "Are you a pig? Didn't your mother give you a brain when she gave birth to you?!"

Gao Ming shrank his neck and said, "Twenty taels is indeed not a small amount. Who knew that others would look down on it?"

"That's why I said you're stupid! Pig brain!"

Xu Wenli suddenly became irritable and shouted in a low voice, pointing towards the distant sea.

"You know she's just an ordinary fisherman's family. If she can afford to open a restaurant by herself, she should know that your twenty taels of silver are not worth it. The danger of Ghost Tooth Reef is not just talk. It's a place where you can lose your life if you're not careful."

Xu Wenli looked at him with wide eyes, and his anger immediately subsided a lot.

"She has several younger siblings to support. If anything happens to her, this amount of money will be her life-saving money. Twenty taels? You're really treating a beggar like a fool."

Gao Ming suddenly realized it at this moment.

Wufu Restaurant is doing good business, although the prices are not extremely high.

But there are so many people going there that the daily income is probably more than twenty taels of silver.

He was indeed wrong in doing this.

"I...I didn't think of it for a moment..."

Gao Ming scratched his hair in frustration, "What should we do now?"

Xu Wenli took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down.

On the dark sea, only the candlelight on the small boat could be seen in the distance.

"Come again tomorrow."

He turned and walked towards the merchant ship.

"Change the silver into gold."

Xu Wenli gave the order in a deep voice.

"Twenty taels?"

Gao Ming was speaking tentatively, and sure enough, he saw Xu Wenli rolling his eyes at him again.

"Don't even mention twenty taels. As long as she agrees to go into the water, we'll give her as much gold as she wants from the Fuchang."

The Northern Business Company doesn't lack that little money.

Gao Ming followed behind him and curled his lips.

……

At the same time, the boat creaked, and the side of the boat was hit by the sea water, creating tiny waves. The moonlight sprinkled on the water like silver, swaying gently with the ripples.

The lights of the dock gradually dwindled to a few flickering sparks behind him.

The sails were blown by the night wind, carrying a unique damp fishy smell.

Xu Yiyi looked up and used the starlight to identify the direction.

After a while, the boat entered the river.

The water suddenly slowed down.

"Don't tell Grandpa about what happened in Anyang when we get back. I may not go, so as not to make him worry..."

Xu Yiyi started talking.

"What can't you tell me?"

The old voice startled the night owl on the branch. Amid the sound of flapping wings, Xu Anyang shrugged and looked at Xu Yiyi helplessly.

"You have better ears than a night owl!"

Xu Yiyi said helplessly.

The wooden boat slowly docked beside the mossy shore. Xu Yiyi threw the rope nimbly. The stinging pain of the hemp rope digging into her palm almost made her lose her strength.

"I gave Xu Guining another beating. Last night, he took advantage of the darkness when no one was around and went to the restaurant and nearly burned it down."

Wu Yuan ran over and spoke without blushing or beating his heart.

Anyway, she didn't lie, that's the truth.

It's just that she wasn't the one who dealt with the person.

As soon as he finished speaking, the uncle became angry.

The veins on his neck bulged, his cloudy eyeballs almost popped out of his sockets, and his crutch hit the ground with a "bang".

At this moment, I wish I could take a boat and kill him immediately.

"Look, I told you I couldn't say it anymore. You've gotten so mad..."

Xu Yiyi signaled Sanchuan and Sihai, and the two children stepped forward to pat the grandfather's chest to help him breathe smoothly.

"Speak! Why don't you speak?"

The uncle roared angrily.

"Just wait and see if I can't deal with him."

As the uncle looked at Xu Yiyi and spoke, he suddenly became less angry.

"I don't even know where he ran off to. Please stop bothering him."

Xu Yiyi waved his hands. According to Lao Lu, Xu Guining was probably living a life worse than death right now.

"You have no say. Take your brothers and sisters home."

Uncle Grandpa didn't follow her wishes and refused to listen at all.

He signaled Xu Anyang to send the person home and leave.

"No! You should take Grandpa back. There are uncles patrolling the island, so it's safe."

Xu refused one by one, fearing that his uncle would get really angry if he were alone here.

The moment Xu Anyang hesitated, Xu Yiyi had already left with the children.

On the way back, Sihai and Sanchuan frowned, looking bitter and resentful.

Er'er was even more tired as she had to keep an eye on A Yue to prevent her from stuffing anything into her mouth.

I don’t know if I’m too greedy or sick, but I keep stuffing things into my mouth lately.

"Big sister, you can't go there. It's very dangerous where there are pirates."

Sanchuan had a serious face, and Sihai held her hand and looked up.

"Let's not talk about this. Those two people didn't sincerely invite your eldest sister to go."

Xu Yiyi really looked down upon these twenty taels of silver.

But curiosity is always there.

I just don’t know what good things are hidden in that sunken ship that makes these two people so concerned about it.
