Follow the army to the island, the rebellious male protagonist was led by me to counterattack

Chapter 124 Bonfire Party
"Shi Xia is back" became the most joyful sentence for the islanders of Hai San Island.

Uncle Cao, Uncle Wen, Auntie, and Grandpa Shi were all standing at the front, craning their necks to look. The moment they saw the shadow of the big ship, they all began to have conflicting thoughts.

Uncle Cao: I knew Shi Xia was alright, you guys were worrying for nothing.

Uncle Wen: I'm not worried at all. I watched these kids grow up, how could I not know them!
The aunt rolled her eyes at the two of them and said quietly, "I don't know who told me to go find Cheng'an."

Grandpa Shi couldn't hear them at all. He watched as the three people opened their mouths and joined in the commotion, saying, "My eldest granddaughter is back!"

Shi Xia was already standing at the bow of the boat, waving to the villagers and her family on the shore.

"Comrades, I have returned victorious!"

The large ship docked, the ferry raft was lowered, and Shi Xia and the others disembarked.

"Why are you only getting back now?"

"Was it successful?"

……

"It went smoothly, but we went a bit too far."

"Yes, nothing's wrong! We caught a lot of tuna. Shi Xia said our village is having a bonfire party tonight, and we'll all eat fish together!"

Cao Ping concealed the fact that he had been arrested and instead released another piece of information.

"real!"

"Oh dear, I've already had dinner!"

"Haha, I didn't eat any, I'm going to eat more!"

"Let's light the campfire!"

Upon hearing the words, the children ran off with joy, and soon there was a long line of them.

He ran all over the village, shouting and hawking, and soon the whole village knew.

Educated youth point.

They weren't familiar with the village, so they didn't go to pick up Shi Xia.

Cheng Qingmin wanted to go, but he was too tired!

When Shi Xia was managing the school alone, she seemed relaxed and carefree, spending her days basking in the sun.

But when it comes to him, the style changes completely.

Talking in class, not paying attention, daydreaming and being naughty—a bunch of kids buzzing around and asking you questions incessantly, it was so noisy…
It made him want to reach into his head, find the itchiest spot, and scratch it vigorously, and finally just stir it all up so that the brain matter was evenly mixed.

In just ten days, Cheng Qingmin had developed several more wrinkles.

"Give her the credit she deserves. It's just going out to sea to catch fish, what's there to brag about?"

Guo Yunyun was still resentful that Shi Xia refused to introduce her to a potential partner. She tapped the dirt off the soles of her shoes and spoke with dissatisfaction.

"So what... he's nothing special, just a country bumpkin."

Li Yafang has recently gotten together with Guo Yunyun, and the two are quite dissatisfied with Shi Xia's popularity.

Jia Yue, who had been silent, heard this but did not say anything.

There were only two boys on the boys' side: Cheng Qingmin and the honest and simple-minded Zhang Jian.

Cheng Qingmin frowned, looking at Guo Yunyun and Li Yafang with displeasure.

"I advise you two not to provoke Comrade Shi Xia."

"Li Yafang, don't go crazy. Comrade Shi Xia has a boyfriend, and I haven't changed my mind, but it was a stupid decision for you to provoke Shi Xia on Hai San Island."

Cheng Qingmin's attitude was firm, and since he only took charge of school affairs, Li Yafang became a little more obedient to him.

When Guo Yunyun saw that Li Yafang was not speaking, she pouted and stopped talking.

"Um...shall we go to the bonfire party?"

Zhang Jian asked, and everyone looked at Cheng Qingmin.

"Okay, you guys decide."

Cheng Qingmin knew he would be staying here for many more years, and who knew when he would be able to return to the city? He wanted to take the opportunity to build good relationships with the locals.

In addition, he wanted to persuade the principal to come back to work as soon as possible!

He couldn't take it anymore!

The beach at Haisan Island.

Because of Shi Xia's words, more than a dozen bonfires were lit, and hundreds of torches were burned.

The islanders moved tables, brought chairs, and searched for stones.

Grilled fish, raw marinated fish, fish slices—they brought out every edible variety. Uncle Cao even brought out his signature erhu, playing one piece after another.

Although the instruments weren't a perfect match, it couldn't dampen the enthusiasm of the atmosphere.

Shi Xia even brought wine down from the ship, which puzzled Uncle Cao. Where did they get wine at sea?
However, this is clearly not a good time to ask.

Uncle Cao stood up, holding the wine.

"Men, women, children, comrades, let's raise a toast to Shi Xia!"

"Respect Shi Xia!"

"Respect Shi Xia!"

Shi Xia didn't hesitate at all, standing directly on the big rock, holding a wine jar.

"Do whatever you want, I'll drink it!"

Shi Xia, holding the wine jar in one hand, tilted her head back and drank it down in one gulp.

With boundless ambition, illuminated by the campfire, we chased the waves on the beach.

This atmosphere is so intense, anyone who comes here will get hooked!

The children all held up their bowls of water and drank bowl after bowl.

They drank alcohol, ate seafood, and baked flatbread.

With music, there also needs to be dance.

A group of people didn't care whether they danced well or badly; if you danced, I danced too, and they forgot all their troubles.

When the educated youth arrived, this was the scene of joy and celebration.

Cheng Qingmin joined in without any pretense, bringing his harmonica with him. He struggled to find his rhythm and kept up with Uncle Cao's erhu and the accountant's drum.

Beneath the fabricated music lies people's carefree indulgence.

This indulgence was brought about by Shi Xia.

The bonfire party lasted until after midnight. A group of men and women, drunk and confused, made lewd jokes with red faces.

It was just a joke, but Shi Xia wasn't afraid at all.

They're even better than them!

The effects of the alcohol have almost worn off.

Around midnight, everyone packed up together, marking the end of the party. The remaining items were divided and taken home.

Shi Xia returned home reeking of alcohol. Her aunt and Xu Danhong followed her the whole time, but it was of no use.

Grandpa Xu shook his head, thinking that he should worry about himself going astray rather than Shi Xia.

He wasn't drunk at all!
Grandpa Xu hummed a little tune to himself, thinking that life was actually quite nice.

The best thing about Hai Sandao is that it has a leader, Shi Xia.

Never underestimate the power of one person to unite people; without that person, this place would just be an ordinary, poor, and backward island.

Sometimes in summer, these three islands gain a new soul.

Shi Xia finally arrived home and went to wash up first.

When she returned, Xu Danhong had already laid out the bedding.

"Our Danhong is so wonderful."

"That's because Sister Shi Xia is so kind."

"Oh my, you've got such a sweet tongue."

Shi Xia joked and went to bed, while Xu Danhong slept on the other small bed.

Before closing her eyes, Shi Xia thought, "I should start building the house tomorrow."

More than an hour later, Xu Danhong began to snore softly.

Shi Xia opened her eyes in the darkness, quietly got up, and went out.

The old sea turtle and the little eagle in the yard also quietly went out.

Two people went to the beach. Shi Xia went into the sea, and after more than half an hour, she had a wet little bag in her hand.

These are the rubies she brought back to distribute to everyone. As for the others... it's true that some were handed over, but she had the old sea turtle take the rest and hide them in the sixth sea turtle's cave.

Around 2 a.m., Shi Xia appeared at Uncle Cao's door.

Uncle Cao, who had been waiting in the restroom, secretly raised his hand and whispered, "I'm here!"
