Feng's face turned blue from the sudden appearance of the two, and seeing his daughter coming in with them, he hurriedly asked, "Bei Bei, they... who are they?"

There had never been a stranger in the house, and the two of them looked unhappy, Feng was afraid.

"Mother, don't be afraid, this kid is the one who fell into the water I just mentioned." Bai Beibei quickly comforted him.

Hearing this, Feng's complexion gradually returned to normal, and when Feng put on a smiling face to greet the two, the little boy said with a dark face: "I have a name, Duan Yixu, I will repay you if I tell you." I won't break my promise!"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Bo Beibei to reply, Duan Yixu took a look around the dim small stone house, and left with the middle-aged man.

"Beibei, have we offended these two nobles?" Feng said with a bitter face. Even though she had never seen the world again, she could tell that the two came from extraordinary backgrounds. very angry.

"Mother, we didn't say anything just now, how could you run into them for no reason, you're overthinking." Bai Beibei comforted his mother, and didn't take Duan Yixu's words to heart.

Feng thought about it for a while, they didn't seem to have said anything, so she was relieved.

"Mom, where is the warehouse full?" Bo Beibei planned to take his younger brother to pick up shells.

"I went out with your sister Yuzhu."

Bai Yuzhu is also a girl from Shangyu Village. She grew up with her elder brother Bai Manchuan.

However, since Beibei's father had an accident, Yuzhu's mother forbade Yuzhu to come and go with Manchuan again. Every time, Yuzhu sneaked here behind her back.

"Mother, let him find me on the beach when he comes back with a full warehouse."

Bo Beibei came to the beach and looked at the various shapes of shells falling on the beach, his eyes shone with excitement.

These shells are worthless to the fishermen who have been living by the sea for many years, but in the eyes of Bo Beibei, these shells are money, rice and flour that can fill their stomachs.

Bo Beibei carefully placed a light yellow fan-shaped shell in his palm, his thoughts gradually drifted away...

In her previous life, she was an innocent and indifferent rich girl. After her parents passed away one after another, she was cheated out of all her property by her boyfriend who had been in love with her for two years. She was disheartened and chose to throw herself into the sea, wanting to settle it. all the pain.

Perhaps it was because she deserved her life that she was rescued by a man engaged in marine farming. Under the care and care of this man, she gradually came out of the shadows.

In order to repay her kindness, four years later, she married this man and became pregnant.

After learning that she was pregnant with twins, the husband was so ecstatic that he had to enshrine her.

It was at this time that she discovered that her stepmother, who was five years older than her husband, married her father-in-law for her husband's sake. This discovery shocked her.

When her husband's stepmother found out that she had discovered the secret, she beat her to death.

One dead and three dead!

I don't know if the man who regards her as a treasure can bear it?
Thinking of the man who said that he likes to see her earnestly making handicrafts with shells, Bai Beibei's eyes are astringent.

Although she only had affection for that man, she had already regarded him as her only family member after four or five years of being together day and night. She sincerely hoped that he would have a good life, and only hoped that he could see through his stepmother's sinister intentions as soon as possible.

Bo Beibei put aside her thoughts and carefully put the shells into the barrel.

In vain, she read so many books in her previous life, but now only the handwork she learned to pass the time is useful.

Yes, she was going to make these shells into ornaments of various shapes and take them out for some food.

There are a lot of shells on the beach, and Bai Beibei picked up half of the wooden barrel in a short while.

"Bebe, what are you picking up?"

Bo Beibei raised her head and saw a thirteen or fourteen-year-old, handsome girl walking towards her with a mancang, so she raised the corners of her lips: "Sister Yuzhu, I'm picking shells."

Bai Yuzhu approached and looked at the shells in the half-barrel, and couldn't help but scolded lightly: "You're still playing with shells when you're so big?"

In Bai Yuzhu's subconscious mind, she is Bai Manchuan's prospective daughter-in-law, so in front of Bai Beibei and Bai Mancang, she naturally reveals the majesty of the elder sister-in-law.

During these days, Bai Beibei felt that Bai Yuzhu was kind to their mother and child from the bottom of her heart, so she didn't take Bai Yuzhu's blame to heart. On the contrary, her heart was warm.

"Sister, this is the rice ball that Sister Yuzhu left for you." Bai Mancang presented a sticky rice ball to Bai Beibei.

Seeing Bai Beibei looking at her, Bai Yuzhu grinned and said, "Today is the fish market. My mother bought a few catties of rice yesterday and said she will be full today."

Yuzhu's family has a lot of staff and goes out to catch a lot of fish, so every day before the fish market, Yuzhu's mother will ask someone to go to the town to buy some rice or white noodles for extra meals.

"Sister, take it quickly." Bai Mancang stretched out his hand, looking at Bai Beibei with bright eyes.

Seeing a rice ball made his younger brother happy like this, Bo Beibei felt sad for a while, touched Mancang's head, and said softly: "Sister is not hungry, you can eat."

"This is my sister's, I can't eat it." Bai Mancang refused, and moved his hand towards Bai Beibei.

"Beibei, you can just eat. Mancang said that you haven't eaten since yesterday. I'll go home and get some rice balls later." When the fish market comes back, she can get a few more.

Bai Beibei hesitated for a moment, and said to Bai Yuzhu seriously: "Sister Yuzhu, I have a way to make money, can you help me?"

"You don't know how to go fishing, how can you make money?"

It's not that Bai Yuzhu doesn't believe in Bai Beibei, but that they have been fishing for a living for generations. Apart from going fishing, Bai Yuzhu really can't think of any other way to make money?

"Sister Yuzhu, I want to make these shells into various decorations and sell them in the town. I should be able to exchange them for some money." Bai Beibei didn't know the outside world, so she didn't dare to talk too much.

"What is an ornament?" Bai Yuzhu looked blank.

Bai Beibei was stunned. Didn't the word "decoration" exist in this dynasty, or was Bai Yuzhu ignorant?

"Sister Yuzhu, to put it simply, it is to make shells into the shapes of various animals or other things, which can be placed at home for people to appreciate."

No matter what reason Bai Yuzhu has never heard of the word decoration, it doesn’t hurt to give it a try.

"Beibei, can you make this decoration?" Bai Yuzhu looked at Bai Beibei suspiciously, why hadn't she seen her do it before?

"Sister Yuzhu, I just have this idea. Let's try it. It's okay if we can't do it. It's a waste of time at most. But if we do it, we can earn some money to help our family, don't you think?" Bo Beibei said without blushing or panting.
