Just beating someone up is one thing, but isn’t throwing them into the sea a bit too vicious?
Yang Qingrui nodded and continued, "Yeah, I heard that our aunt’s nephew from her brother’s family couldn’t stand it anymore and wanted to eat crab, so he waited by the sea for the tide to rise, but then he never came back. People say he was thrown into the sea."
"How do you know about these things?" Yang Chuxia looked at Yang Qingrui, who was not very old but seemed to know a lot. Originally, she just casually asked out of boredom while picking things up, but she didn’t expect this kid to actually know about it.
Upon hearing this, Yang Qingrui laughed and said, "People in the village talk about it. Every time I pass by the village entrance, there’s a crowd of people talking about it, so I just hear it."
She realized it made sense, as the village entrance was like the center of the village. When people had nothing to do, they would squat there and chat about everything – talking about what’s happening in one household while gossiping about other families.
"Do you know why no one has taken charge of this little beach?"
"Sis, are you stupid?" Yang Qingrui opened his eyes wide upon hearing this. "Who would care about this kind of small beach? It’s too small to park a boat, and the fish and shrimp aren’t as good as on the big beach. Who would be idle enough to manage this place?"
"You little brat, dare to look down on your sister?" As she spoke, she stretched out both hands to pinch Yang Qingrui’s face, but he skillfully dodged her.
She was a military special agent, but she was looked down upon by a little brat. Where should sheput her face?
However, it seemed that what this little brat said was true. It’s really not a good place to park a boat, and the road leading out from the beach is hard to walk on. In a word, transportation is inconvenient.
As for the fish and shrimp, it’s not necessarily that they are not good. No one comes to small beaches, so no one goes to the nearby waters either. Over time, if no one disturbs the area, there would be more fish and shrimp there, and they would be of higher quality.
"Sis, what should we do if the wooden barrels are full?"
Yang Qingrui looked at the beach, and there were still many small shells. It would be a pity not to take them home.
"Let’s not pick them up anymore. Let’s go home first."
"Ok, I’ll listen to my sister."
With that, the siblings each carried a wooden barrel back to Yangshu Village. However, on the way back, Yang Chuxiaspread some big leaves on the barrels to cover them. She had no choice. Otherwise, when they passed by the village entrance, people would see them bringing these things back and would certainly ask questions.
After all, these things are small and have little meat, so people don’t usually eat them. If they were to bring them home by the barrel, it would certainly attract attention.
Although she didn’t mind helping others get rich, there wasn’t any tangible result yet, was there? They couldn’t let everyone know before things were settled.
But when Yang Chuxia was thinking about this, she forgot one thing – her vigorous argument with Ms.Hua Junior the night before. Her fiery reputation had spread throughout Yangshu Village. If she passed by the village entrance carrying two wooden barrels, people would not dare to ask her questions just like that. Who knows if they would hit a nail and be scolded by her for a while?
The siblings returned to the Yang Family smoothly with no one around in the yard, so they directly carried the wooden barrels into the house.
Inside the house, Ms. Wang was sewing shoe soles. Seeing the siblings return, she put down her work.
