Pampering the sea

Xia Chuan's voice was soaked with the coldness of winter, he sat down on the ground powerlessly, and then laughed in a low voice that only he could hear, "I thought you were different."

In an instant, his cold hand was covered with a soft and warm little hand.

"Xia Chuan," Xin Yue looked at him and called his name earnestly, "even the hardest days will pass. Don't get stuck in the past suffering, look forward, become stronger and protect yourself. You, you are still young, you can definitely change your destiny and do what you want."

When she looked at him, her eyes were calm and vicissitudes like an ancient pool, as if she had restrained too much unknown pain, she was unwilling to resort to it and could not resort to it, and it was like a crystal clear river flowing out of a slender The flow of beauty, delaying far, outlines the clarity of the world.

I can't remember how long it has been since Xia Chuan stayed in the Japanese imperial palace, drinking sake calmly, waking up and dreaming drunk, always entangled with one question - when did it start?

Since when did she become the person he wanted to look forward to, hug and protect?When did she start to walk into his heart, and since then she has become a persistent obsession?

The wind rustled, and the sea was slightly choppy.

Xin Yue thoroughly understood the reason why Xia Chuan insisted on sleeping with her - he had a strong fear and disgust towards men.

She held the boy's hand tightly, tilted her head and looked at his beautiful face like jade: "Sleeping in the same room, three chapters of agreement. First, you sleep on the floor, and I sleep on the bed; second, you can't touch me. No matter what the situation is, you can’t do the same thing to me just now; third, you are not allowed to make any noise when you are resting at night, and you must maintain a relatively quiet environment so as not to interfere with my sleep. If you violate one of these, I will never dream you."

-

At night, the crescent moon ticks.

Xia Chuan asked Xin Yue who was sitting on the bed and didn't rest: "Why don't you sleep?"

"'Xia Chuan, let me ask you, you gave such a valuable item to a little girl to let her take us in. You have achieved your purpose, but have you ever thought that showing off your wealth like this will make this family treat us badly? Heart?"

Xia Chuan slept on the straw mat on the ground, shook his head with his hands on the pillow and smiled: "No."

"Why?" She looked at him suspiciously, "You don't trust this family that much, do you?"

He hooked his fingers and lowered his voice: "Come here, let me explain to you."

Xin Yue then got out of bed and sat on the ground.

He didn't answer Xin Yue's question directly, but asked: "If you were them and found out that I was rich, what would happen?"

"I will grab it."

"If this possibility is ruled out for the time being, that is, the family is regarded as ordinary people with a conscience, what is the possibility?"

"For ordinary people," Xin Yue thought for a while, "after a while you will find out that you are penniless, and you will drive us out."

A faint smile spread across Xia Chuan's white jade-like face: "How can we delay their expulsion of us?"

"You keep giving them money."

Xia Chuan spread his hands helplessly, "But I have no money."

"Or, you have to make them feel that it is very profitable to take you in. Even if you can't give them money, they will still provide you with food and drink." Xin Yue looked at him, and suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "Suoga, I know gone."

Xia Chuan smiled and listened to her opinion.

"You told them that you fell into the sea when you were on a boat with your father. On the one hand, you were trying to dispel their guess that you were being hunted, lest they think you were a scourge and decided not to accept it. On the other hand, you were misleading them. , If you deliberately present yourself as a son of a rich family, they will think that your father will come here one day sooner or later, and there will be a secret expectation that the rich family will return generously to the benefactors."

"Pinpoen." He raised the corner of his mouth and said something in Japanese—the correct answer.

Xin Yue frowned: "Although this family is greedy for money, they are still honest and treat us well. You are seriously deceiving them like this."

"They're going to get something, I'm not going to let them get nothing."

Xin Yue probed: "What's the benefit?"

Xia Chuan coughed: "Didn't someone say that if the illness recovers, I will fish for them for half a year." With a smile in his eyes, he looked at Xin Yue.

Xin Yue thumped the boy's shoulder: "You're a bit of a rascal."

A month later, Xin Yue's body had almost recovered.At that time, she was wearing a blue dress made of coarse cloth and was stepping on a fishing boat.

There were four people on the boat, Sister Zhang, Xing Xing, Xin Yue, and Xia Chuan.

Fishing requires a lot of manpower. Brother Zhang and Sister Zhang do it by fishing in the sea. They use harpoons in the shallow water nearby. Fish in shallow seas are different from fish in deep seas. If the two parties catch fish and sell them in the market, they can better meet the needs of the people.

At first, Sister Zhang was not suspicious of such a delicate girl as Xin Yue fishing, and when she saw her pick up the harpoon, she whispered in her ear: "Look at the spot and then fork, and fork behind the fish you see."

Xin Yue understood the principle of light refraction. When a fish whizzed past, she exerted force with her arm, and she was crisp and precise. With a slight smile, she threw the pierced fish into the fishing basket.After a while, the fish basket was full.

"Sister, you are so amazing..." Minmin looked at Xin Yue's quick and powerful movements, and couldn't help but exclaimed, "It's even better than Dad!"

Xin Yue stopped what he was doing, sat on the boat, and said to the stunned child, "You can also become so powerful."

"Sister, you teach me, you teach me!" Minmin jumped up suddenly, her eyes were crooked, and there was a bit of urgency in her bright smile.

"You child, do you want us to fall?" Sister Zhang reprimanded the boat that kept bumping as the child jumped.

Being scolded by her mother, Min Min stuck out her tongue, felt a little wronged, then quietly moved to Xin Yue's side, tugged on Xin Yue's sleeve, and said flatteringly: "Sister, teach me, okay?" ?”

The child's voice was as soft as a ball of cotton candy, and Xin Yue inadvertently softened his voice: "You are not strong enough. When you are stronger, sister will teach you again."

"I'm very powerful..." Minmin pouted, stretched out her slender arms, bent her elbows, squeezed out a small piece of meat on her arms, and frowned trying to make a fierce expression, " I'm strong."

Seeing that Xin Yue was still ignoring her, Min Min stepped forward and asked, "My good sister, is there any way to make me as strong as you?"

Although Minmin was born in a slightly backward fishing village, she is weak and her mother can no longer bear children, so she is regarded as the apple of the eye by her parents as a weak and only child. She does not do farm work like other children. Exercise caused her body to become weaker and weaker, which made Brother Zhang and Sister Zhang very anxious but helpless.

Xin Yue's eyes were indifferent, he half-closed his eyes and looked at her, and said softly: "Sister can't tell you."

Minmin's curiosity was aroused, and she began to talk softly and softly. Xin Yue seemed to be moved, shook his head and said, "Okay, listen to me, I'll just talk to you alone."
