Years: Return to the Leisurely Fishing Village

Chapter 80 Deserted Island, Little Girl Accompanying You
The village chief's house.

Zhang Yishui felt a headache when he saw Zhang Yibei clinging to him.

"The sea is not as fun as you think. If you really want to take Liu Xiang to the sea, you can do it at our beach. There is no need to take risks."

Zhang Yibei pouted, looking dissatisfied, "Brother, just take us there! There are so many people fishing at the beach, we can pick up as much as we can, we just want to experience the feeling of a barrel bursting."

"You picked up so much stuff last time, we also want to try our luck on that island."

"Cousin Xiang finally came here, so you can take us there!"

As she spoke, she raised her hand and shook his arm. In short, she was very clingy and would keep pestering him if he didn't agree.

Zhang Yishui felt a headache, "You two little girls, how can I take care of you by myself?" He was afraid that if he blinked an eye, the person would disappear.

After all, that place is a deserted island and they don’t have much experience in fishing. What would they do if an accident happened?

Zhang Yibei suggested, "Why don't you ask Tan Shaoyang to go with us? His family also has a fishing boat and he must have experience in going out to sea. Wouldn't it be reassuring to have one more person with us?"

He has been praised all the time these days, and Zhang Yibei is full of curiosity about him. Since they are all from the same village, he is not afraid of being gossiped about.

Zhang Yishui's face was filled with confusion. "People collect fish to make money. Who has the time to go out to sea with you to play around?"

Zhang Yibei looked at him stubbornly with her hands on her hips, "You haven't asked yet. The time for fishing is short these days. How much seafood can you find?"

"I don't care. If you don't take us, there will be no fun in the trip when Cousin Xiang comes."

Zhang Yishui was so annoyed that he had to go over and ask shamelessly. If his sister was alone, he would definitely not go.

But with the addition of my cousin Liu Xiang, I have to make the trip no matter how reluctant I am. My uncle is the leader of the town, and my father's work still depends on him. The family can build a house because my uncle arranges jobs for my brother and sister to make money.

In this case, Liu Xiang must not be brought slowly.

Tan Shaoyang was stunned when he heard the reason why the other party came to him. Would he, such a kind person, play with him?

"Sorry, I'm busy!"

Zhang Yishui persuaded him with his eloquence, "Brother San, why don't you go with me? I'll split the harvest with you in half, and I'll sell you the fish, too, so you can earn twice the money."

Tan Shaoyang: “…” His heart was moved.

I'm just sitting around at home doing nothing, and I haven't collected that many sandworms, so I could definitely go for a trip!

"I have little experience in rowing, and I'm not as flexible as you!"

Zhang Yishui didn't care at all, as long as he had someone to accompany him.

"Mainly help me keep an eye on the people, in case something unexpected happens on the deserted island."

There has been a lot of talk about him these days, otherwise Zhang Yibei wouldn't have targeted him!
Just like that, I prepared the food I needed and went out.

Tan Shaoyang often goes out, and no one would ask him where he was going. You have to know that he would definitely be stopped if he went out to sea. After all, he lacks experience and they are afraid of accidents.

And now we have arrived at the dock.

At first glance, I saw Zhang Yishui with two little girls. They were wearing black suit pants and Dacron shirts. Their clothes were tucked into their pants, revealing the girls' slender waistlines.

I heard footsteps and turned around to see two beautiful young girls with thin bangs and two braids on their chests.

Her face was not made up, but her complexion was crystal clear.

One of them in particular has fair and delicate skin, exquisite features, and natural beauty. She looks beautiful at first glance.

He probably wasn't from the village; he had no impression of him at all.

As for Zhang Yibei, a girl who grew up by the sea, even if she doesn't have to go to the sea to make money, her skin won't be that white due to ultraviolet rays, but it's much better than the villagers.

They are all at their youthful and beautiful age. They look full of vigor and vitality at first glance. They are all natural, without any embellishment, yet still beautiful enough to dazzle the eyes.

Originally, Tan Shaoyang was quite perfunctory, coming here only to make money. Now he feels that it is not so bad. Everyone is vulgar and who doesn't like to see beautiful things.

After the group got to know each other, they boarded the boat and set off rowing.

They were all young people, and after getting to know each other, the topic started to develop.

Only then did Tan Shaoyang know that the girl with fair skin was called Liu Xiang, the daughter of Zhang Yishui's aunt. The girl had just graduated and was as beautiful as a flower.

They were still chatting at first, but when the sun was scorching, they hid in the shed.

Tan Shaoyang was fully armed, but he didn't care. He couldn't possibly let the little girl be exposed to the sun with them!
Rowing by human power is not very fast, and it takes most of the day to reach the usual fishing spot.

The sunlight shining on the sea is extremely dazzling, making it difficult for people to open their eyes. In such a state, they still have to fish. Not a penny is easy to earn!

Whether they are fishermen or farmers, they have all worked hard since ancient times, and every penny they earn is hard-earned money!
Zhang Yishui was unaware of his emotion. He had a clear purpose in mind, coming here to catch fish. He was not in a hurry to catch fish, but continued rowing towards the deserted island.

It was not until they stopped at the deserted island that Tan Shaoyang looked at him with indescribable eyes, "Are you kidding me? With your appearance, even if you give me all the fish in the boat, you won't make much money."

Zhang Yishui smiled and said, "Don't worry. It's hard to keep the fish if we cast the nets now and don't rush back. We can just cast two more nets when we go back."

"I'll put down the fish cage first. Let's go to the island and find a place to cook some food. Then we can take a rest. When the tide goes out in the evening, we'll go to the sea to look for fish."

People usually go fishing at night, when various seafood will come out of caves and are easier to find. They rest on the boat during the day.

Of course, fishing cannot be compared.

All I can say is that different choices lead to different ways.

Tan Shaoyang waved his hand and said, "Just take things as they come, since we're already here."

Tan Shaoyang found a place to satisfy his physiological needs and took a walk around the area while it was still daylight.

There are reef areas, which are formed into reefs of various shapes by the beating of sea water all year round. There is also a large grassland with empty mines. It is indeed a good place to catch fish, but you have to learn how to find the goods.

I had seafood porridge for dinner. I always brought a pot with me when I went out. It was impossible to eat delicious food, but I wouldn’t starve to death.

All the seafood is freshly caught and very delicious.

But people who are used to eating it don’t feel much. After all, it’s just to fill their stomachs, and as long as they are full, that’s enough.

The sun sets and the sky gradually darkens.

Tan Shaoyang ignored them and lay down on the boat to rest.

As you can imagine, ships that often go out to sea have a mixture of various fishy smells that are a bit pungent and unpleasant.

But since we have already gone out to sea, it is impossible to be picky.

Anyway, you should lie down when you need to, or sleep when you need to. If you don’t get enough rest, you won’t have the energy to go surfing at night.

Zhang Yishui raised his leg and kicked Tan Shaoyang, "Just sleep after eating, you don't even have the appearance to keep in front of a girl." Tan Shaoyang rolled his eyes, lay on his side, rested his head on his arm, and said lazily, "What appearance do you need? You're not looking for a date."

Zhang Yishui was choked by his casual words, sat down in front of him, and asked next to him, "With two beautiful girls in front of you, don't you have any thoughts?"

Tan Shaoyang glanced at him nonchalantly, "Why? Are you planning to introduce your sister or your cousin to me?"

Zhang Yishui was choked again. If it were someone else, they would definitely have their eyes glued to him and run up to him to show their affection.

It turned out that he didn't care at all. Apart from a moment of amazement at the beginning, he just did what he had to do.

"If you like my sister, you have a chance, but it's hard to get my cousin. She lives in town and her family is paid, so they will definitely choose the best conditions for their daughters."

Tan Shaoyang shrugged, not caring at all, "Isn't that right? A man who lowers his head to marry a daughter-in-law and a man who raises his head to marry a daughter-in-law, it is important for a person to know himself. He can't even think about what he is passionate about."

"I might as well stay alert and find more goods! I can make money with more goods."

Zhang Yishui: “…”

"You can be my brother-in-law. I like you."

Tan Shaoyang was too lazy to pay attention to him. He was a very smart man, and I wonder what he was planning!

"Just say it in front of me. If you say it to the village chief, he might break your legs."

"By the way, what were you thinking when you betrayed my sister like this?"

Zhang Yishui also lay down lazily, with his hands behind his head, and said helplessly, "What can I think of? I just hope that you can take over my burden and save me!"

"We have a fishing boat at home, but we don't want it to be idle. My brother and sister went to work in town, leaving me to suffer under the sun. I wish someone would take over and give me a less busy job."

Tan Shaoyang: “…”

Lost in the memories, Zhang Yibei got married and moved to the town. At the beginning, the two of them were in love and their relationship was very sweet.

But the marriage was not so easy to maintain. Her mother-in-law didn't like her because she was from the same village and made many things difficult for her. In addition, she gave birth to two daughters, which made her mother-in-law hate her even more. She always said bad things about her in front of her son.

Later, life was ok, but I felt a little depressed.

In the end, her husband became addicted to alcohol and kept beating or kicking her for not being able to give birth to a son. The beautiful girl was like a frost-bitten eggplant, and she no longer had the vigor and vitality she once had.

There was no smile in his eyes anymore, he was living like a walking corpse.

Zhang Yishui is smart and calculating, but he is also a person who likes to stand up for trouble. He came to the door and beat someone up and threatened him. Zhang Yibei's life would be easier.

But the good times didn’t last long. Once the wound healed, the pain was forgotten and I went back to my own way.

As for Zhang Yishui, he still has to keep the boat going. It will be difficult for him to quit!

Tan Shaoyang lazily said in a low voice, "Your sister has someone she admires, and she knows him from your cousin. You can find out if the man's family is stable."

"Love matters require mutual consent. I don't want to snatch it away. If bad things are spread, it will easily ruin my reputation."

Zhang Yishui jumped up instantly after hearing this and looked towards the cabin in astonishment, but he could not see the human figure clearly because of a curtain blocking the view.

"Is it true? What did you see?"

Tan Shaoyang shrugged and said lightly, "You will know if you ask around. Seeing is believing, hearing is not!"

"I just took a quick look, I don't know the details, if you are interested, you can find out for yourself!"

"Of course, if you don't care, just pretend I never said anything. After all, she's not my sister, so I don't need to care about her."

After saying this, Tan Shaoyang just let it go and didn't care about it at all. After all, it was none of his business and it was not his turn to take it seriously.

Zhang Yishui looked depressed. Could it be that this girl was cheated by someone?
Nowadays, most couples need a matchmaker to introduce them to each other. After all, rumors are terrible. If you are together, people will gossip about you, and even spread rumors that you are in love.

That's why I'm afraid she might be deceived.

Thinking of this, he stood up suddenly, but was quickly caught by Tan Shaoyang.

"Why are you going? You don't want to ask questions?"

"Brother, I just finished talking to you and you exposed me right after. Do you still have any room for me to survive?"

"Besides, I only took a glimpse, and I'm not sure if it's the truth. If you go over there openly, girls have to save face, where will she put it?"

"You should learn to be more steady when doing things, don't be too impatient, understand things clearly before considering other things. You seem to be quite smart at other times, why do you fail at the critical moment?"

Zhang Yishui touched his nose, his eyes flickering as he quietly defended himself, "It's normal for me to be shocked when you suddenly dropped this news."

"This girl doesn't look like a brave person. If my dad knew, he would have to break her legs."

He made up his mind to go back and investigate thoroughly. A bomb like this would make him dizzy and he would be in a state of panic, not to mention having a rest.

Zhang Yishui was flipping the paper like a pancake, turning it left and right, which made Tan Shaoyang very annoyed.

He didn't know whether Zhang Yibei's legs would be broken, but now, he really wanted to kick him off the boat. The noise was making him unable to sleep well.

"What are you doing? You can't sleep and you can't turn over and over."

"I didn't know. I thought you had fleas. You're not stable."

Zhang Yishui sat up instantly and scratched his head irritably, "It's all your fault. You made me so upset that I couldn't even sleep well."

"How can I stay calm knowing such a big thing? I want to beat up the guy who approached him and throw him away."

Tan Shaoyang sat up, looking speechless, "I reminded you with good intentions, but you got blamed instead, right?"

"You knew about this, and then the investigation was completed. Is it that serious?"

"Haven't you heard the saying that you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry? There's no point in being so anxious. This is just a sign, and it hasn't developed yet!"

"As a brother, you need to understand the other person's family and whether they are someone you can entrust your life to. If they are a good match, then let them develop. If they are not someone you can entrust your life to, then just don't let them have any contact!"

"Is it necessary to make such a simple thing so complicated?"

"Look at how irritable you are. You just told me to let me get in touch with you. If there is any sign of this happening, you will be so angry that you will die!"

Zhang Yishui curled his lips and retorted with his neck stiff, "That's different. Aren't you successful now?"

"We are all from the same village, we know each other well, the family atmosphere is good, and we won't be bullied."

"Zhang Yibei is a simple-minded girl. It's enough for you to let her live a comfortable life."

"But if he is seduced by someone outside, who knows if it is someone else? If you have a girl, you will understand this deeply."
