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

Chapter 27 When I’m Old I’ll Still Talk Nonsense

"She really killed them one by one? That's impossible! With her small body..."

"Ada and the others saw it. Yiyi is a good swimmer and fought with the shark in the water for quite a while."

I haven't seen it with my own eyes, but the wounds on the shark can't be faked. Xu Yiyi's dagger is still on his waist.

As soon as Xu Anyang got off the boat, he ran back to find his great-grandfather. It was a big deal that a little girl could kill a shark and escape unscathed.

Even my great-uncle might not have been able to do it when he was young.

Almost everyone in the village ran out at once. They heard that someone had killed a shark, and it was a little girl. They were all curious.

Li Xiuying stood in the crowd with a complicated look in her eyes.

Her father stood in front and talked big, and at this moment, her uncle, who was such a strict man, smiled kindly at Xu Yiyi.

No one in the village was not amazed.

The shark was sold for forty taels of silver. When Xu Yiyi arrived at the dock, the restaurant owners looked at Xu Yiyi as if he were a hot commodity.

This person sends some hard-to-catch seafood every few days, trying to get her to cooperate.

A shark was divided up by several shopkeepers, and Xu Yiyi didn't keep any.

She didn't like the smell of meat; it was too fishy and had a faint smell of urine.

No amount of shredded ginger or wine can cover up the taste.

Xu Yiyi had something on her mind and didn't even have the energy to cook in the evening.

Fortunately, the great uncle called them all to his house. Xu Yiyi knew that she would inevitably receive a lecture, but she was too tired to cook.

But he never expected that as soon as he entered the door, he saw A Si's mother coming with a razor blade, running straight towards Xu Yiyi who was holding Wu Yuan.

"Aji aunt, what are you doing?"

Xu Yiyi stepped back in fear, only to see A Si's mother-in-law with a smiling face and a blade in her hand. How could this not be scary?

"Oh, I scared you. I was holding the razor blade to shave Wu Yuan's head."

After hearing her say this, Xu Yiyi became even more frightened.

The blade was so sharp that it would definitely scratch Wu Yuan's hair follicles if it hit his head.

The child's hair is growing so well now, thick and black, it is totally unnecessary to shave his head.

"That won't work. Wu Yuan's hair is so long that he can't be shaved."

Isn't it said that people in ancient times were very taboo about cutting their hair? Xu Yiyi didn't see any of that in A Si Bo Niang.

"You kid, the older generation did this. Shaving your hair will make it grow better. Also, the head you put on Wu Yuan is not good. It's too round. You need to keep it still when he sleeps so that his head shape will look good!"

Xu Yiyi was dumbfounded and looked at Xu Anyang's flat head.

He is a pretty good-looking guy, but his appearance loses five points with this flat head.

"The older generation is talking nonsense. When I get old, I will talk nonsense too."

Xu Yiyi pursed his lips in dissatisfaction.

"And this flat head doesn't look good either..."

She tried to hold it back but couldn't. From the side, it looked like it was flattened. How could it look good?

The great uncle was sitting in the yard and heard the conversation between the two. He looked at his grandson's head and then at his granddaughter's head.

It seems that a flat head is indeed not a good look.

My granddaughter was taken care of by my old wife at that time. She didn't care about these things and never checked on her sleeping. Her head was quite round and looked pretty no matter how you looked at her.

"Don't pay attention to your aunt, this is the custom over there."

Asi fled here, so there was a sea there. The typhoon destroyed her home, and her family members died one after another in the typhoon.

The young Ah Si was left with a mess, and her father was a gambler and owed money.

She was afraid of being caught by the gambling house and used to pay off her debts, so she ran away overnight after burying her family.

After many twists and turns, he finally came here and was adopted by his great uncle.

When she was older, she married Xu Pinghai. After so many years, her living habits had changed.

It’s just that some customs cannot be changed.

Aunt Asi smiled embarrassedly and put down the blade in her hand.

……

It seems that the cooking skills of Uncle Grandma and Sister Honglian are not very good. Xu Yiyi took a sip of the clam sour soup, which was too sour and the fishy smell of the clams was not removed well.

But everyone seemed to enjoy the food very much, even Xu Yiyi drank two bowls herself.

Late at night, Xu Yiyi took the children home.

The two youngest, Sihai and Wuyuan, had already fallen asleep. Xu Yiyi simply wiped the two children's bodies and carried them back to the room.

Er'er was still boiling water, and Sanchuan was reading a book with an oil lamp.

"Er Er, I'm going to go out for a while. If Wu Yuan cries, go comfort him."

Xu Yiyi wanted to verify something.

"It's late, sis. What are you going to do?"

Er'er ran out of the kitchen and only saw Xu Yiyi's back as she walked out.

Xu Yiyi walked to the river and found his own boat among the rows of small boats.

The fishing village is on an island. When a typhoon comes or during the fishing ban period, the boats need a place to dock for maintenance. This place was dug out by the older generation.

Xu Yiyi sat in the small boat and rowed it continuously until she came to the sea.

Under the bright moonlight, they came to a reef and tied the fishing boat to the reef with a rope.

The next second he jumped directly into the sea, with a splash that attracted everyone's attention.

"Who is it? Could it be that our affair has been discovered?"

The two men were a little suspicious and looked with torches. Xu Yiyi's boat was blocked by the reef.

Looking around, there is tranquility.

"What could it be? Maybe a fish."

Xu Yiyi heard the rustling sounds of two people in the water and was a little confused for a moment.

After the people walked away, he raised his head, floated on the water, and looked at the two figures.

He is a nice villager, but he is not from the Xu family. People from the same clan like to stick together and live not too far from each other.

For example, Xu Yi's family is surrounded by three families who are all members of the Xu clan. They live at a certain distance from each other and maintain a sense of privacy, but if they encounter any problem, they can be heard by shouting.

Those people from other surnames are different. They like to live far away from the Xu family, close to the mountains.

The island is surrounded by the sea, and there is a small hill on the island which is made up entirely of reefs.

It is also closer to the town’s pier, and the boat ride takes about an incense stick of time. People on both sides don’t disturb each other, and it’s rare to see them coming here.

Showing up here in the middle of the night seems suspicious no matter how you look at it.

Xu Yiyi thought about it, but couldn't figure it out, so he had to put it aside and dive into the water again.

This is just like a myth. Xu Yiyi accidentally swallowed a fish eye and was able to breathe underwater.

Xu Yiyi looked at the colorful schools of fish swimming around in front of him, and the shrimps and crabs blowing bubbles under the rocks. Xu Yiyi reached around his waist and took off the fish basket.

I reached out and grabbed several large lobsters. The reefs under the sea were very large. When I swam to the other side, I found that they were all sea urchins.

Xu Yiyi was secretly happy that she had a breakfast for tomorrow.
