Chapter 129 Running out in the middle of the night
"Stay away from people. You can't keep hitting her. Otherwise, if she gets angry, it will make you and your siblings lose your reputation."
Qingshan looked at Xu Yiyi's indifferent expression and couldn't help feeling sad.
This is just a small town, and if anything happens, it will reach everyone's ears.
"She's a person who can't be communicated with. She has to fight."
Xu Yiyi is not a barbarian who likes to beat people for fun.
If Zhan Jilan had known a little, she wouldn't have run out in the dark.
Qingshan was helpless, after all, what Xu Yiyi said made sense.
"Don't worry, she probably won't be able to stay in town after this."
Aunt Xie Yushu's family are not good people. They live in the same place as Uncle Li's hometown, and that place is poor.
There are many mountains and little land, and it is not near the sea.
I can barely afford to eat, and now that I have the opportunity to move out, I would never want to leave.
Zhan Jilan has no chance of winning against such a person.
Her uncle was on the island, so even if she went back, she wouldn't dare stay too long.
"Come and have some delicious food tomorrow night. I've come up with a new sauce that's pretty good."
Xu Yiyi put the clean wooden barrel back on Qingshan’s boat, waved his hand and prepared to leave.
When Qingshan heard this, he started to feel hungry.
"If you say it's delicious, then it's probably the best. I won't go to the capital tomorrow."
Qingshan joked that it would take half a day to travel from Ping'an Town to the provincial capital.
Originally, he was going to take the boat to the provincial capital the next morning, rest for half a day, and return to the town the next day.
Since Xu Yiyi said there was something delicious, he couldn't miss it.
"as long as you are happy."
……
Xu Yiyi returned to her own boat and hung the shell lamp outside the cabin. It swayed in the wind, forming a soft halo of light.
She went to the stern and took down another shell lamp, replaced it with the whale oil given by Qingshan, and relit it.
This is to make it easier for ships passing behind to judge her position and direction of travel and keep a good distance.
The darkness was like a thick curtain, tightly wrapping the sea.
The sea breeze blew her hair and clothes wantonly, making a whistling sound.
The next morning, Xu Yi didn't get up and lay motionless on the bed with Wu Yuan in his arms.
After waking up, the child lay on Xu Yiyi and played with her hands obediently. After she didn't move for a long time, she started to hum.
Er'er squeezed the goat's milk, quietly went in and carried Wu Yuan out.
"Where's the eldest sister?"
Sihai was drowsy, drinking porridge from the bowl.
Sanchuan wiped his brother's mouth and looked at Er'er curiously.
"Big sister is sleeping."
Er Er put Wu Yuan into the cradle, and the child saw the cradle's legs swinging constantly.
It can be seen that he was very hungry.
"sleep?"
Sihai slurped up the porridge in the bowl, climbed down from the stool and went into Xu Yiyi's room.
He got into bed carefully and touched his elder sister's forehead with his chubby little hand. He felt relieved when he found that she didn't have a fever.
"Where's your eldest sister?"
When the uncle walked into the yard holding his walking stick, he saw that Xu Yiyi was nowhere to be seen so early in the morning.
It's really rare.
"Grandpa, my elder sister is sleeping."
Sihai came out of the house and closed the door, speaking in a voiceless voice.
"Big sister must be too tired, so let her sleep a little longer."
Er Er said this seriously.
When my uncle heard this, he rolled his eyes up to the sky as if he was rolling his eyes.
"That's too tiring."
If you run out and have some fun in the middle of the night, you won't be able to get up during the day.
After breakfast, Sanchuan was sent to school by Xu Anyang. Er'er had rested enough, so she sent Wuyuan to be held by her uncle and aunt.
I got on Xu Anyang’s boat to buy breakfast.
It was already noon when Xu Yiyi woke up in a daze.
On the way back last night, I met the dolphin I had met in Fucheng before. It stayed on the sea for a long time.
By the time we get back to the island, it's much later than when the night stalls closed.
She never thought that she would sleep for so long.
Xu Yiyi squatted in the yard, half asleep, drinking porridge.
The porridge in the clay pot was as thick as rice, I don’t know if it was because I was too hungry.
Er'er prefers thicker porridge, but Xu Yiyi likes it with more water.
So he lit the fire.
Add water to the porridge and cook it again.
"Is he awake?"
The uncle brought Wu Yuan, the troublesome child, back home.
"Grandpa, where are Er'er and the others?"
Xu Yiyi picked up Wu Yuan and put him in the cradle, looking at her great uncle with wide eyes.
"What a hardworking kid! He went to set up a stall at the dock."
The great uncle sat on the stool with a calm demeanor.
"Where did you go last night? So late at night."
At this time, there was a knocking sound outside.
The family living close to the Xu family hired someone to help renovate the house. Her eldest son was getting married at the end of the year, so they took this opportunity to renovate the house and add another room.
Every time Xu Yiyi met the uncle and aunt from that family, she always had a wry smile on her face because her family only had sons.
Every year there are people who are old enough to get married, and they have to spend a lot of money every year. In the past four years, they have not saved any money.
Xu Yiyi came back to her senses and said, "Didn't I tell you? I'm going to town."
She looked at her great uncle and thought that he must have been drunk last night.
"If you don't have a stall and nothing important to do, you should avoid going out at night. It's not safe to sail at night."
After his uncle's advice, Xu Yiyi naturally nodded obediently.
Anyway, Zhan Jilan is unlikely to come back in the short term.
"Okay, take your time eating. I'm going back first."
When the uncle left, he teased Wu Yuan for a while, but he became much quieter after returning home.
I was so stingy when I was on his side!
Only Ah Si and his wife were allowed to hold the baby; no one else was allowed to touch it.
He thought to himself, he was not a bad person, so why was the child crying when he saw him?
He was so upset that he just hid away for a while but his wife called him back and asked him to look after the children.
That's why he rushed to bring her back. Fortunately, Xu Yiyi was already awake, otherwise he would have had to go through the trouble of waking her up.
The tide receded in the morning. After having a not-too-early breakfast, Xu Yiyi took Wu Yuan to go fishing.
When Aunt Li saw her, she came over to talk to her.
As she spoke, she put things into her fish basket. They were all common items found on the seaside and could not be sold for much.
"Please do my aunt a favor."
Aunt Li spoke in a hoarse voice. She said that the fried tofu was delicious last night and she couldn't help eating it until her stomach was full.
When I went back, I also brought some fried sea fish, which I had originally intended to leave for the annoying girl at home.
As a result, the annoying girl refused to eat anything, so she had to buy it all.
My throat is sore when I wake up in the morning.
"Aunt Li, just tell me what you want to say."
If Xu Yiyi could help, she would definitely not refuse.
After all, Aunt Li was a nagging person, and her ideas did not align with hers, so they could not talk to each other.
There's nothing else.
