"Okay, I'll go now." Bo Beibei replied very simply, told his younger brother a few words, and then walked to the fish market.

Seeing this, Feng smiled gratifiedly.

During this period of time, Bo Beibei didn't want to go out, Feng was really worried that she would get sick from boredom, and she was very happy to see her willing to go to the fish market to help out today.

As Bo Beibei walked towards the fish market, he searched for information about the fish market in his mind. In his impression, each fish market took only one morning.

On the day of the fish market, the shore is full of horse-drawn carriages before dawn, and even some people will come to line up one night in advance, in order to buy the best fish. These people are not big restaurants in cities and towns. The people here are the procurement personnel of the big families in the nearby towns, and they are all big customers of the villagers.

And those sporadic small customers, such as small markets or taverns, usually require folks to deliver goods to their door.

Of course, the fish delivered to the door are all caught in the sea, not to mention the variety, and the size is also small.

The fish market starts at the hour of Mao. When the gong sounds, the whole fish market comes alive instantly. There are a lot of people and traffic, and the scene is quite spectacular...

Just as Bo Beibei walked tens of meters away, he suddenly heard a weak, intermittent cry for help, which made Bo Beibei stop.

"Save... save... save... life..."

Bo Beibei looked for the reputation, the voice seemed to come from the sea in front of him, and when he looked closely, he saw a small figure flopping about in the sea.

Bo Beibei ran towards the beach without thinking, jumped into the sea and swam towards the little figure.

Bo Beibei just swam to that little figure, and that little figure was like a leech, hanging on her body with hands and feet.

Unprepared, Bo Beibei sank and choked on the seawater.

Bo Beibei was not strong in the first place, and if she was entangled with such a person again, she was very worried that she would be buried with him.

Bo Beibei exclaimed angrily: "If you don't let go, you will drown together!"

The moment Bai Beibei finished speaking, she felt a lot lighter on her body, but she didn't have time to explore the boy's faster-than-normal reflexes, so she dragged him to the beach.

Fortunately, the water in this location is not deep, and it is also fortunate that the child is not heavy, otherwise she would not know if she would be sure to rescue him.

Panting heavily, Bo Beibei looked sideways at the little boy who was also panting on the beach.

This little boy looked a little smaller than her, wearing a lavender thin gown, with a jade belt around his waist, and a fine jade pendant hanging from the belt, he looked like a child from a rich family.

But his complexion is pale with a tinge of sallow, his body is weak, and he looks like he has been malnourished for a long time. Coupled with this rich and noble attire, it is against harmony no matter how you look at it.

"Are you okay?" Bo Beibei's eyes moved to his swollen belly, and he couldn't help worrying. It seemed that he must have drunk a lot of sea water.

After recovering from his breath, the little boy sat up, stretched out his hand and licked deep into his throat, and then vomited loudly, until he spit out blue-yellow bile, the little boy stopped licking his throat action.

The corners of Bo Beibei's eyes twitched, this kid was really cruel to him.

However, it must be admitted that this child is very smart, and he can only feel comfortable if he digs out the sea water.

However, looking at the seawater he vomited up, Bo Beibei couldn't help sighing.

The fact that he survived after drinking so much water shows how strong his desire to survive is.

"Thank you!" The little boy thanked Bo Beibei after vomiting the sea water.

Hearing the little boy's hoarse voice, Bai Beibei came back to his senses.

Just as Bai Beibei was about to say "You're welcome", she heard a rush of footsteps and a scream that almost tore her eardrums: "Master——"

Seeing the little boy's gloomy face suddenly, Bo Beibei couldn't help turning his head to look at the passers-by curiously, only to see a man in his forties running towards them with a pale face, followed by a few young men who looked like servants.

"Master, are you alright?" The man stretched out his hand to check on the little boy, his voice was trembling, and he seemed quite frightened.

The little boy waved the middle-aged man's hand away, glanced at the servants behind him with a gloomy face, and asked coldly, "Where is Xiao Liu?"

The hostility emanating from the little boy and the cruelty in his eyes made Bo Beibei's heart skip a beat, and he wanted to leave here instinctively, but his whole body couldn't exert his strength.

Hearing this, the middle-aged man suddenly seemed to realize something, his face changed again and again, and he ordered the servants behind him: "Hurry up, Xiao Liu can't escape!"

"Yes!" All the servants took the order and left.

After all the servants left, the middle-aged man had time to take off his coat and put it on the little boy, and asked worriedly: "Master, are you okay?"

"Uncle Lu, I'm fine, this girl saved me." The little boy pointed to Bai Beibei and said calmly.

The middle-aged man was taken aback for a moment, and only then did he discover the existence of Bo Beibei.

"Thank you for your help, girl. May I ask what your parents' names are? After I report to my master, I will thank you very much." The middle-aged man looked at Bai Beibei gratefully, and already guessed from her clothes that Bai Beibei should be around. children from a fishing village.

"It's just a coincidence, it's not worth mentioning."

Bo Beibei didn't want to have any deeper contact with them, so she pushed her hands to the sandy ground below her, trying to get up with her strength, but she felt that something had crushed her palms.

Bo Beibei withdrew her hand, her eyes fell on the colorful shells on the beach.

Joy flashed in Bo Beibei's eyes, she stood up with all her strength, and ran home before saying goodbye to the middle-aged man and the little boy.

The middle-aged man was stunned for a while.

"Uncle Lu, follow up." The little boy ordered.

"Yes." The middle-aged man had no objection, picked up the little boy, and followed closely behind Bai Beibei.

When Feng Shi in the stone house saw her daughter running back like a drowned chicken, she was startled: "Baby, what's wrong?"

To save her mother from worrying, Bo Beibei explained: "I saw someone falling into the water just now, so I went down and pulled him up."

"Falling into the water?" Feng Shi was taken aback. Are there any children on the beach who can't swim?Thinking about it, today is the fish market, and guessed that the person who fell into the water might be someone from outside the fishing village.

"Hurry up and change your wet clothes, I'll make you a bowl of ginger soup." The weather is cold in the morning, and getting sick from the cold is a hassle.

Bo Beibei changed her clothes, drank ginger soup, picked up a small wooden barrel and left the stone house, but she didn't want to, as soon as she went out, she saw two people, one big and one small, standing outside the door.

"It's you?" Bo Beibei frowned imperceptibly, as if she was very unhappy to see them again.

The little boy ignored Bo Beibei's indifference, passed her, and walked into the stone house, followed by the middle-aged man.

The little boy's supercilious look made Bo Beibei even more displeased. She put down the barrel, turned around and entered the house.
