Sixty years old with the army, the heirless boss loves his fertile wife

Chapter 213 Standing on your own
This sentence scared Coral Lady.

She wanted Coral to be soft-hearted and continue to support the family, but she didn't really want such a capable daughter to die.

Tears fell, she slapped her thigh and yelled at her man: "You saw it, now you feel comfortable? Shanhu doesn't want to live anymore, why can't you..."

She couldn't tell.

Coral shook off her mother's hand and walked out the door.

She was really discouraged and thought about jumping into the sea.

Being plotted against by her family, she felt that her whole life was dark.

But when she was walking to the door, Tang Qiyue grabbed her wrist and said, "Shanhu, calm down, it's not a big deal!"

Her words seemed to have magic power, awakening Coral, who was determined to die. She looked up at Tang Qiyue and suddenly burst into tears, hugging Tang Qiyue and sobbing loudly.

Shanhu's parents also saw Tang Qiyue, and hurriedly asked Tang Qiyue to persuade Shanhu, saying that they really didn't want Shanhu to die.

Tang Qiyue's expression was not good either, but she did not say anything bad to Shanhu's parents. She just reminded them coldly: "Shanhu doesn't owe you anything. She is still a little girl!"

Tang Qiyue took Shanhu away. She knew that Shanhu was not suitable to stay at home at this time and would really go to extremes.

Shanhu didn't ask Tang Qiyue where to take her. As long as she could get away from home, she was fine.

It was very cold outside, and the sea breeze was like a knife, blowing on people's faces, making it difficult to speak.

Fortunately, Tang Qiyue was wearing a scarf. She held Shanhu to shield her from the wind, and they walked home together.

When she got home, Coral's frozen hands and feet slowly relaxed, and she realized that the house was as warm as spring, a completely different temperature from outside.

"Drink some ginger and sugar water to warm yourself up first!"

Tang Qiyue made a bowl of brown sugar ginger soup, and Shanhu's hands were shaking as she held the teacup.

It was a physical expression of extreme anger and extreme sorrow, the intense emotions that collided constantly.

Tang Qiyue didn't try to persuade her and just waited for Shanhu to calm down.

After drinking a cup of brown sugar ginger water, Shanhu's emotions stabilized. She reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and then expressed her gratitude to Tang Qiyue.

"You're welcome, I didn't expect that either!"

She just went over to see an acquaintance and didn't expect to encounter something like this.

"what's your plan?"

Tang Qiyue was worried that Shanhu would completely lose interest in life because of this incident. She saw how determined Shanhu was about to jump into the sea.

Shanhu smiled bitterly: "I don't know what I can do. I can't do anything except go to sea. All these years I thought my parents loved me, but now I find out that they have always liked my brother!"

As he spoke, tears began to fall.

Tang Qiyue didn't know how to comfort her, so she just patted the back of her hand so that she could feel her care.

"I said jumping into the sea was just to scare them. For us divers, surviving in the sea is instinctive. Even if we soak in the sea for three days and three nights, we won't necessarily die!"

Tang Qiuyue believed this.

The kind of ability that has been developed since childhood.

"But I promised to marry that man. If I don't bring him home, I guess his life will be hard!"

When talking about marriage, Shanhu's mood improved a little, and Tang Qiyue finally had time to ask her about her partner.

Shanhu did not hide anything from Tang Qiyue and told her everything about her fiancé.

"You said he was a carpenter?"

Logically speaking, such a craftsman should not be unable to find a wife. "Yes, his craftsmanship is very good, but he is not favored at home. He is also the third child in the family. His father doesn't love him, and his mother doesn't love him. He can only find a way to survive on his own, otherwise he will be sucked dry by the whole family!"

After Coral finished speaking, she pointed at herself with a wry smile and said, "You're just as stupid as me!"

Tang Qiyue rubbed her chin. She was working on some things recently and really needed help from a carpenter. She had been thinking of asking someone from the fishing village for help, but now it seemed that Shanhu could help.

"So you still live in your house?"

You can help others, but you can’t let Coral and her fiancé be sucked dry by their family because of this incident.

Shanhu shook her head: "It has come to this. I definitely can't live at home anymore. In fact, after being recognized by the village, we can choose to start our own business, but we need to pay a large sum of sea pearls!"

Originally, this rule was to provide a hope for those female divers who were unable to have children. However, over the years, no female divers have actually used this village rule.

Now that Shanhu said it, Tang Qiyue understood. She probably didn't really have no plans at all. She probably had thought about this possibility.

"Then how many sea pearls do you need?"

Tang Qiyue knew that Shanhu had secretly hidden a lot of sea pearls, otherwise she would not have had this idea.

"Not even close!"

Coral was annoyed, but soon cheered up: "But the water temperature is too low at this time, not many divers will go into the sea. I can go into the sea a few more times, and I will always be able to get enough!"

Although she said so, she did not express the degree of danger.

How could Tang Qiyue not understand?

Going to sea in winter is a risk of death.

That means exchanging your life for this freedom.

Tang Qiuyue also had some sea pearls in her hand, which were given to her by the mermaids before, but she had no use for them. She went into the house and took out a small box full of sea pearls.

"Can you see if these can make up for your shortcomings?"

Tang Qiyue opened the box and pushed it in front of Shanhu. Shanhu was shocked, "Sister Qiyue, that's not what I meant. I can do it myself!"

Tang Qiyue held down her retreating hand and said, "I just don't want to lose you as a friend. You can slowly return the sea pearls to me when the weather warms up next year. There's no need to take risks now. Besides, these sea pearls are just beautiful things to me, not something I need urgently!"

Coral also understood this.

She suddenly knelt in front of Tang Qiyue: "Thank you!"

Tang Qiyue didn't expect her to do this and hurriedly pulled her up.

"It is said that a man's knees are made of gold, but so are our daughters' knees. Don't kneel down casually!"

Coral only took a part of the sea pearls because she knew the village rules.

"These are all you need. You have all the colorful sea pearls here, which are much more valuable than the white sea pearls I have. If the village chief doesn't want to lose me, a sea girl who can get the colorful sea pearls, he won't be too greedy!"

With the confidence to leave home, Coral was obviously a lot more relaxed.

Only then did she notice the special nature of Tang Qiyue's home. She had not been here since Tang Qiyue moved into the Valley Family Compound. This was the first time.

"Sister Qiyue, how did you do it here? Did you burn firewood? Why is it so warm?"

Every winter, even if Shanhu wrapped herself in a thick cotton-padded jacket, she still felt very cold. But now she starts sweating after entering Tang Qiyue's house.

Tang Qiyue smiled, "These are some new inventions from the research institute. They will be used in the fishing village in the future. In a year at most, the fishing village will be renovated and rebuilt!"

Coral's face was filled with shock.

"Then can I also live in such a warm house?"
