Reborn in 1994, escaping from marriage and going sea fishing, I won!
Chapter 21 Being Envied and Jealous
Grandma Wang shook her head and laughed, "You are such an honest child. If it were someone else, even if I found it in advance, others would have picked it up if they saw it. After all, the sea has no owner, whoever picks it up owns it."
"You provided the snakeskin bag and carried it back for me. You were the one who did the hard work, and I felt I was taking advantage of you. I'm older, so you should listen to me. Let's split it in half."
Seeing Grandma Wang say this, Liu Meilan smiled and said, "Okay, thanks to you, I'll make a little fortune today!"
Just one sentence made Grandma Wang smile from ear to ear.
An old man and a young boy picked quickly and filled a snakeskin bag with probably two or three hundred pieces.
Liu Meilan picked up all the small moon clams and threw them into the sea.
Holding the snakeskin bag tightly, Liu Meilan carried it directly on her shoulder and held the bucket in her other hand.
Grandma Wang was carrying the bucket with great effort, and she looked at Liu Meilan in surprise, "My dear, you said before that you were very strong, but I didn't believe you."
Liu Meilan thought that her power came from the Melo Pearl, a gift from God.
"Without great strength, how could I have escaped from the marriage successfully? And it would have been impossible for me to fight back the next day and beat up those who hurt me!"
Grandma Wang grinned, "You are such a good girl! You could have married a good family with your looks! But you insisted on relying on your strength to make a living, how rare!"
Liu Meilan did not feel any regret. "Being beautiful is not necessarily a good thing! Wasn't it because of my good looks that Sun Jianan and Sun Jianyou, a pair of beastly brothers, targeted me?"
"After going through this, I finally understand! I can't count on anyone, I can't rely on anyone! Relying on looks is not reliable either. Only my strength is the most reliable!"
Grandma Wang nodded and said, "Child, you can think like this and do this, you will never go wrong in the future!"
"Of course!" Liu Meilan is full of hope for her future life. She wants to create a better life with her own hands.
When we arrived at the dock, the people who bought seafood were already waiting there.
There were a lot of people surrounding Zhou Xingwang and Sun Youqian.
Zhou Xingwang purchases mid- to high-end seafood, while Sun Youqian purchases mid- to low-end seafood.
When Liu Meilan appeared, Zhou Xingwang pushed aside the others in front of him and said, "Little sister, you have gained a lot today! Oh, it's still the Moon Shell!"
"I'll give you one dollar and fifty cents for each one from your bucket! Let's count now, what do you think?"
As soon as Sun Youqian heard Zhou Xingwang's offer, he was immediately discouraged.
He can't offer such a high price!
However, when these moon shells fell out of his pocket, Sun Youqian regretted it.
These moon babes are more expensive than usual, no wonder Zhou Xingwang is willing to spend an extra fifty cents.
Zhou Xingwang, that bastard, got some good stuff again!
It was fifty cents more expensive than usual, but Liu Meilan thought it was a good deal. Zhou Xingwang was generous and nodded, "Okay, let's count now!"
Liu Meilan and Zhou Xiaoliu, the follower brought by Zhou Xingwang, counted together.
Zhou Xiaoliu is young after all. He looks at Liu Meilan while counting moon shells.
Sometimes, while counting, I would forget the number because I would peek at Liu Meilan.
Liu Meilan raised her eyes and glanced at Zhou Xiaoliu who was multitasking. She realized that she could no longer rely on this man.
Finally, according to the number counted by Liu Meilan, one bag and two buckets of moon shells, a total of 360 shells, cost 1.5 yuan, and the moon shells alone cost 540 yuan.
Razor clams are 2 yuan per pound, a total of 8 pounds, 16 yuan.
Several swimming crabs were crushed to death by moon clams, but Zhou Xingwang refused to take them.
Liu Meilan and Grandma Wang decided to take it home and fry it.
In one morning, the two of them earned 556 yuan, and divided 278 yuan equally between them.
When Old Mrs. Chen saw that her old sisters had made so much money, she felt bad and came over to help.
"Sister-in-law Wang, I was wondering why you didn't go fishing with us? It turns out you found something good. You too, we've been sisters for decades, but you didn't invite me and went with outsiders. I've been with you for nothing."
Old Mrs. Wu also curled her lips, "That's right, they say that happiness should be shared, but you have already forgotten about us old sisters. If you are like this, who will get along with you in the future?"
……
When Liu Meilan heard this, she was unhappy and was about to retort, but was pulled back by Grandma Wang.
"Old sisters, you misunderstood me. Actually, it was Meilan who found it. I just helped. It's getting late. I'm so hungry that my heart is beating fast and my legs are weak. I won't talk to you anymore. Let's go home and eat early."
After saying that, Grandma Wang ignored the sour words that followed, took Liu Meilan's hand and hurried home.
Liu Meilan pouted, "Grandma Wang, it's obvious that these people are jealous of you, why do you swallow your anger and not argue with them?"
Grandma Wang smiled gently, "We have been neighbors for decades, and I am used to their tempers. They say that a close neighbor is worse than a distant relative. Once I was sick and couldn't move in bed. They hadn't seen me for a whole morning, but they climbed over the wall to find out that I was sick and sent me to the hospital in time."
"Besides, we did get a lot today, so it's normal for many people to be jealous. If I saw that others got a lot and I didn't get anything good, I would also be envious. This is human nature. Most importantly, I don't think it's worth arguing over such a small matter."
"Think about it. If we win the argument, the other party will hate us and may even do something bad. If we lose the argument, we will be very angry. No matter how you think about it, quarreling is not worth it. What's more, after working for several hours, our clothes are soaked and we are hungry. How can it be better to go home, change into clean clothes and eat hot meals than to quarrel in the wind and rain at the beach?"
Liu Meilan, who was originally angry, was slightly stunned and carefully savored Grandma Wang's words.
Finally, Liu Meilan shook her head and smiled bitterly, "Grandma Wang, I can't be as open-minded as you. If someone makes me unhappy, I will do my best to make them unhappy."
Grandma Wang laughed, "You are only eighteen this year, and I am fifty-eight. You are young and sharp, and it is normal for you to fight back with an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth. At my age, I have seen through everything, and I can remain calm about these unimportant things."
Liu Meilan also laughed, "I didn't think too much about it. I just felt that life is only a few decades long, so there's no need to feel aggrieved. We all have two eyes, a nose and a mouth, so why should we be bullied by others?"
Grandma Wang smiled and listened carefully to Liu Meilan's somewhat extreme words. "Meilan, I don't want to persuade you to change your principles, but I just want to remind you that before doing anything, think about whether you can bear the worst consequences. If you can, then you can do whatever you want. If not, then you should restrain yourself."
"As the old saying goes, a good man never suffers a loss in front of him. If you can't bear the consequences, it's okay to be a little cowardly. As the saying goes, if you keep the green mountains, you will never worry about firewood. It's never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Goujian, the King of Yue, slept on firewood and tasted gall, and Han Xin endured the humiliation under his crotch. When you can't bear it, think about these, maybe you can bear it."
Liu Meilan listened carefully to what Grandma Wang said and was filled with awe.
Everything she did since her rebirth was done with great energy.
To put it nicely, it's called moving forward courageously; to put it bluntly, it's called rushing forward recklessly.
Do whatever you want and don't tolerate any injustice.
Doing so can certainly avenge one's grudge on the spot, but it will also bring many hidden dangers.
It seems that she has to study hard in the future to make herself stronger. She can take revenge on the spot without many hidden dangers.
