Chapter 125 The Second Marriage Request

The next day, Tang Qiyue slept until Zhan Zeye came back from morning exercises. When she put her hands on the edge of the bed to support herself to sit up, she almost fell back.

Zhan Zeye, who was standing beside the bed, laughed out loud.

In return, he got a cold eye from his wife.

Fortunately, after Zhan Zeye laughed, he remembered to pick her up and help her put on her shoes.

"Remember to switch hands next time!"

It would have been fine if Zhan Zeye didn't remind her. As soon as he reminded her, Tang Qiyue remembered what happened last night and her face turned red.

She ignored Zhan Zeye's excited concern and went to wash her face and brush her teeth.

I thought to myself that I would never be so stupid as to bring it up next time, and I couldn't feel sorry for the man.

She is the one who suffers.

Breakfast was seaweed soup, corn cakes, and a plate of pickled mustard tubers.

Tang Qiyue didn't show any disgust and actually ate it all.

Zhan Zeye could see that Tang Qiyue was indeed tired, otherwise he would have gotten up earlier and even prepared some extra snacks for him.

But thinking about what happened yesterday, he chose to keep quiet and not provoke Tang Qiyue.

After dinner, Zhan Zeye left immediately. Tang Qiyue went to the fishing village again. She thought about it and decided to find Shanhu to ask if her family had some dried seafood that could be given away.

Seafood is not realistic, after all, the weather is still hot. Once out of the sea, many seafood will rot, so dried seafood is more suitable.

Thinking that the villagers in the fishing village did not have a strong concept of money and still preferred food, Tang Qiyue decided to talk to Shanhu first. If she really had it, she could exchange it for food. At worst, she had many other good things.

Coral's parents went out to sea early in the morning and have not returned yet. Coral is repairing the fishing nets. She doesn't go to the sea every day.

Seeing Tang Qiyue knocking on the door, he invited Tang Qiyue in and took out a bag of dried crab legs as snacks.

"We do have some dried seafood at home. They are all saved by my parents and are waiting to be exchanged for food when we can go inland. If you want them, sister Qiyue, I'll give them to you. Anyway, we go out to sea every day now, so we can just dry them slowly!"

People usually go out to exchange them in winter, when people in inland areas are willing to spend money, and it is Chinese New Year, so dried seafood is a rare commodity and convenient for giving as gifts.

Now that Tang Qiyue needs it, Coral will definitely give her priority.

Tang Qiuyue proposed to exchange it for food.

Shanhu said, "We still have a lot of food at home, so we are not short of it for now. We have exchanged a lot with the uncles in the military camp before. It would be great if we could exchange some cloth. My parents go out to sea every day, and their clothes are patched again and again. The patches are almost rotten!"

Tang Qiyue also noticed that Shanhu's clothes were all patched, and thought that they were reluctant to wear good clothes. It turned out that the fabric was too expensive and they were reluctant to make more new clothes.

"That's easy. I have a lot of fabrics in my trousseau. You can go over and pick some!"

Shanhu was very happy. She thought this request was too much, but she didn't expect Tang Qiyue to agree so readily.

She opened her own warehouse and took Tang Qiyue directly in, letting her take a look for herself to see if there was anything she liked.

Tang Qiuyue took a look around and found that the small warehouse was filled with various dried seafood.

In the end, Tang Qiuyue selected a lot of dried shrimps, seaweed, and dried kelp. These are not rare items, but they are seafood that are recognized by people in the inland.

I also picked some dried seahorses and cuttlefish bones. These are medicinal herbs. One can be used to make wine, and the other is a rare medicinal herb, most suitable as a gift.

There were also some salted fish. Tang Qiuyue selected a few that were small in size so as not to be too big to carry.

Shanhu thought Tang Qiyue was embarrassed and wanted to give her more.

"I have a box of sea pearls here. You can take them back and give them to others. It will be very impressive. They used to be the best tribute items!"

The female divers all have some sea pearls hidden in their possession.

Tang Qiyue hummed, not being polite. Wild sea pearls are treasures, so she prepared some for her mother-in-law, sister-in-law, and Zhan Zeye's sister-in-law. They didn't need to be many, just a pair of earrings for each person.

Point out the things you want and let Coral wait for her parents to come back to discuss how much to exchange. Then go to their house together to choose and then make the transaction.

Shanhu originally wanted Tang Qiyue to take everything back, but Tang Qiyue disagreed.

After all, Coral is still a child and cannot make decisions for her parents.

Besides, she was sincere in the deal and couldn’t let Coral suffer any loss, so it was better to let her parents make the decision.

In the end, Coral couldn't persuade her and had to agree.

Putting aside the worry, Tang Qiyue asked Shanhu about the fisherman's girl.

Remarriage is a big deal. Yu Niang's life was saved by Tang Qiuyue, and she still hopes that Yu Niang can live a good life.

Shanhu sighed: "If the fisherwoman doesn't want to leave the fishing village, she must agree to it. Fortunately, Dashan is the nephew of the village chief, and life at home is still okay. It should be better for the fisherwoman to marry him than to marry that damn Biaozi!"

Tang Qiuyue asked about Dashan's situation in detail.

I learned that although his leg was broken, he was still a relatively mild-mannered person. At least I had never heard of him being moody and hitting people at random.

"As long as he doesn't beat his wife, Sister Yu Niang will definitely agree!"

After Shanhu finished speaking, Tang Qiyue was silent for a moment.

When did not beating your wife become the standard for being a good man?
Isn't this a matter of course?

However, considering that the thinking of ordinary men in this era is still very backward, it is almost unrealistic to expect them to put women on an equal footing.

"Has the date been set?"

Tang Qiyue thought that when the time comes, she would come over to help the fisherwoman with her makeup, which would also be considered as a way of establishing a friendship with her.

"It's settled. We'll move in three days!"

Shanhu looked around and told Tang Qiyue in a low voice: "It's easy for a widow to marry again. All she needs to do is worship heaven and earth!"

Tang Qiyue: ...

All the ceremonies were omitted.

"But this is Dashan's first marriage, and his mother wants to have a grand wedding, but Dashan disagrees, saying that he is a cripple and doesn't want to embarrass himself!"

Shanhu curled her lips: "To put it bluntly, Sister Yu Niang has to be wronged!"

"You don't know, Dashan's mother said that after Dashan and Sister Yu Niang get married, they will separate and it will be Yu Niang who will support Dashan from now on!"

It was from Shanhu's story that Tang Qiyue learned about Dashan's family situation. After losing his labor force, Dashan became an abandoned child in the family.

Finding him a wife would be their compensation for abandoning this abandoned child.

Tang Qiyue sighed. No matter when, there are always some people who are not worthy of being parents.

"Sister Yu Niang will definitely not invite you over. She also finds it embarrassing. Let's go over there together on that day to have some fun so that she won't feel bad!"

Shanhu is a passionate person, so Tang Qiyue naturally agreed to her request.

After chatting for a while, Tang Qiyue said goodbye to her and went back. This time, she finally didn't meet anyone she shouldn't have met on the road. However, when she got home, she remembered that she had promised to help Shanhu find out about the soldier she had taken a fancy to.

I thought there wasn't much time left, so I could wait until we exchanged things to tell her that the soldier was not allowed to marry her.

Before I opened the door, I saw someone squatting on the bluestone slab at the entrance.

 The previous chapter was deleted. It turns out that I can’t try randomly!
