"Once the bribery is discovered, it will be a capital crime. If you don't want to live, you can just jump into the sea. There's no need to drag our whole family to be buried with you!"

Li Cuicui said lightly: "How can it be so serious?"

Song Hemao was also speechless and said to Li Cuicui: "Mother, bribery is definitely not an option. I went to the city to listen to storytellers and heard that bribery costs at least a hundred taels. How can our family afford that kind of money?"

Li Cuicui was stunned and said in surprise: "One hundred taels? That's too much."

She thought it was the same as bribing Du Lizheng, giving him a piece of meat this month and a chicken next month.

Song Hewei said sinisterly, "I don't think we need to think about being the village head, but there was another carriage coming to my eldest brother's house today. I guess it's what you said, to transport goods to their house."

They went to the city to look for work yesterday, but they didn't find any, so they didn't go today either.

Li Cuicui gave up the idea of ​​asking Song Xiangqian to bribe her, and suddenly said with a jealous look on her face: "In other words, Song Dalang really has found a noble woman?"

Song Hewei nodded: "Yes."

Li Cuicui thought about it, suddenly lifted the quilt and stretched her muscles.

Song Xiangqian asked doubtfully, "Are you healed?"

Li Cuicui rolled her eyes at him and said, "It's not that fast, but I've been lying in bed for six days, I'm not in pain anymore. If Song Hexiu makes me unhappy, I will certainly make him unhappy too."

If she continued lying there, Song Dalang's family would be out of her control.

Several people looked at each other and roughly guessed what Li Cuicui was going to do.

But can she really get any benefit?

……

On the other side, after Song Chuman and her family finished breakfast, Song Hezheng was about to get the wooden barrel when his eyes went dark and his body suddenly shook.

Sheng Shuwan hurriedly supported him.

Fortunately, Song Hexiu regained consciousness quickly. Seeing that his family members were looking at him with concern, he quickly said, "Sorry, I scared you."

Sheng Shuwan was anxious, "With your health, how can you go fishing in the sea?"

Song Chuman nodded: "Yes, father, you should rest, drink the medicine, lie on the bed, and my brother and I will entertain the guests."

It was her mistake. As far as she could remember, Song Hexiu rarely had such a thing happen today.

I shouldn't have let him go fishing.

Song Hexiu hesitated: "But we can't just let the two children support the whole family."

Song Chuman smiled and said, "Dad, it's okay. When you get better, just continue to make money. People always feel uncomfortable sometimes, and they need to rest."

Song Hexiu hesitated for a moment, and knew that his daughter was right, so he said with a look of relief: "Then I'll listen to you."

After persuading Song Hexiu, Song Chuman started making fishing bait again.

This time she made twenty.

Although fishing is more profitable, making bait is really mentally taxing.

She calculated carefully and concluded that if she caught twenty fish and then went fishing, she could maximize her income.

Before leaving, Song Chuman asked her parents to take good care of the seagulls. She and her brother put five wooden barrels on a cart and walked quickly to the beach.

Compared with yesterday, my mental strength has increased a little bit today.

At this time, Xiao Xuanli and Ziyuan were catching seafood on the beach.

They only dug more than ten pits, but didn't even see the shadow of seafood.

Xiao Xuanli began to doubt his life. "Didn't the fishermen say that there might be seafood in the holes in the sand? But I didn't find any holes with seafood. Is my luck so bad?"

Ziyuan looked at the ten holes he had dug and coughed lightly, "My luck isn't very good either."
