Chapter 1674 It’s obvious at first glance that there is something hidden

"I, I'm going to pick up my dad. Their ship has already docked."

Xiaotong spoke hesitantly, and it seemed like he was hiding something.

But in this remote place, what could he hide?

Yuan Sin continued to walk forward calmly, while Xiaotong who was following him was distracted and even fell down.

The fall was hard and his nose bled.

Yuan Sin helped the person up and said, "Go back first and let your sister Qiuqiu take a look."

At the mention of Chang Qiu, Xiaotong immediately covered her nose in excitement.

"No, no, this little injury will heal on its own, don't worry about me."

It's really strange. He obviously admires Chang Qiu so much, but now he is so abnormal when it comes to Chang Qiu.

No matter how stupid he is, he still sees that something is wrong with Xiaotong.

But he didn't say anything. After pulling him up, the two of them walked slowly towards Xiaotong's home.

It is a lively day every time a fishing boat docks, but since both the Chang family and the Li family lost their lives, not many people were received at the beach this time.

Yuan Sin followed Xiaotong to the beach. Xiaotong was not very interested today, but when he saw the approaching fishing boat, he was still excited and kept jumping up and down on the shore.

After a while, the fishing boat docked, but this time due to the sea wind, the catch was not very big. The six crew members caught a total of two barrels of fish.

Fishing at sea is inherently a gamble. When the harvest is good, you have something to look forward to all year long.

If the harvest is not good, you will have to tighten your belt to get by.

Xiaotong saw her father looking serious and shouted quickly.

"Abba, Abba! Here! Here!"

The man’s name is Chen Zhen. He has been out blowing the sea breeze all year round. His complexion is dark and his complexion is not very good. This time he caught two buckets of fish when he went to sea. Each family was given only five fish. He will not be able to go out to sea again until the next year. , I originally expected to earn some tuition for my children this time.

"Xiaotong."

He shouted, holding the five fish he had been given in one hand, and quickly approached.

Xiaotong was still looking around, "Dad, just five pieces?"

Chen Zhen's face was full of helplessness, "We encountered a sea breeze this time and the ship yawed. There is no other way. Let's go back."

Xiaotong also knew that the next two people would probably be hungry, and their faces fell.

After walking to Yuan Sin, Chen Zhen remembered that he had retrieved a man last time and immediately asked.

"Are you feeling better?"

"Better, thank you."

Chen Zhen put his hand on Xiaotong's head, his face full of simplicity.

"Last time we fished you out, we were all shocked and thought you were dead."

Xiaotong looked at the fish in Chen Zhen's hand and sighed.

"Dad, is it getting more and more difficult to fish now?"

"Yes, fishing bans have been issued in several sea areas before, and the place I visit most often has conflicts with foreign countries. If I encounter pirates, my life may be lost. In the past, I could catch hundreds even if I just went there for a few days. After the catty comes back, there aren’t many fish left in the past two years, maybe it’s also related to the climate.”

We rely on the mountains to eat the mountains, and we rely on the sea to eat the sea. But the current situation can no longer just eat the sea.

Xiaotong's face became even more depressed.

"Has this year's tuition been settled?"

Chen Zhen didn't want his son to worry, so he raised his hand and pressed it on his head.

"Don't worry, your father will send you to school even though he's trying to sell things."

The father and son chatted as if no one was around until they returned home.

Chen Zhen chose the biggest one without hesitation and gave it to Xiaotong to kill.

"Your former brother is still recovering, so you might as well eat more protein. These five fish won't earn you tuition anyway, so we don't need to be stingy."

Xiaotong nodded and quickly went to kill the fish.

Original Sin stood outside and heard the conversation between father and son clearly.

He raised his head and glanced at the sky in the distance. The sky here was very blue, slightly different from what he saw at sea. The air was better.

All you can smell on the sea is the sea breeze.

His people should be arriving soon, and he will leave some money to the Chen family when the time comes.

After being in a daze for a while, he suddenly heard Xiaotong's voice.

"Dad, what's wrong with your hand? Why is there pus?"

"It's okay. He was injured accidentally. I'll go to Qiuqiu's house later to order some medicine."

Upon hearing that he was going to Chang Qiu's house, Xiaotong fell silent for a moment.

Chen Zhen's hand was not only injured this time, but his leg was also swollen.

But in order not to worry Xiaotong, he didn't say anything the whole way here.

"Xiaotong, you cooked the fish at home. I'll go to Chang's house to have a look. I heard that your Uncle Chang is gone, so I have to go and help."

Xiaotong's lips moved twice, but she couldn't say anything.

The Chen family and the Chang family are very close. Standing at the Chen family, you can see the Chang family halfway up the mountain. It is already night, but the Chang family is still brightly lit and there are many people there.

Yuan Sin stayed at Chen's house and had some dinner with Xiaotong. He saw that the child had been looking outside, wanting to see if his father was back.

But until eleven o'clock in the evening, Chen Zhen did not come back.

Xiaotong was so anxious that she went out to look for him.

Yuan Sin stopped him, "Maybe something happened with the Chang family. What are you worried about? Even if your father is really seriously injured, isn't there Chang Qiu? She has good medical skills."

Speaking of Chang Qiu, Xiaotong's face no longer had that kind of admiration and yearning, and she sat anxiously on the chair.

"Handsome brother, I'm a little scared of Sister Qiuqiu now."

"Oh?" (End of chapter)
