Reborn in 1994, escaping from marriage and going sea fishing, I won!

Chapter 220 1 Like it at first sight (4800+4900 plus)

The young woman looked up, her eyes red and full of sadness.

"I really didn't expect my parents to ask for such a high gift. I know I was born in a family that favors boys over girls. When I was admitted to university, they refused to let me go. I promised that after I start working, I would give them all my salary, except for living expenses, for at least three years."

"I have done the same thing for the past four years. I am usually very frugal, hoping to repay my parents for their upbringing. But now it seems that they really don't love me. Asking for such a large amount of betrothal gifts is like selling their daughter."

"But you, why did you agree when I didn't agree? That's two years' salary for you, I just gave it to you. Why are you so generous? I'm their daughter, I'm fine with being oppressed by them, but you're not, you don't need to be morally blackmailed by them."

Liu Yian listened to Tang Ying's words and just smiled faintly, "We have limited time, and you have to come to my house during the holidays. Originally, marrying you is a good thing and a happy thing. I don't want to get involved in endless quarrels and make it difficult for you."

"However, after we get married, I agree that you should give your parents the necessary respect, but I don't think you can give them all your salary. I don't want your salary, but you should take good care of yourself."

Hearing this, Tang Ying nodded repeatedly, "I've already thought about it. I will send ten yuan to my parents every month. I won't have any more. I'm married. I have a family, a husband, and a child. I want to raise my child well."

"My family is like this, and you still want to marry me. Yi'an, I'm actually very touched. Can you tell me why?"

Liu Yian smiled and said, "I was injured and couldn't walk. You carried the medical kit on your back, treated me, and carried me out of the war zone. You were so small that you carried me out in one breath. You were so tired that you had to sit on the ground and rest for half an hour before you recovered."

Hearing this, Tang Ying bit her lip and said, "I'm a military doctor, that's what I should do. We are comrades-in-arms, I have the responsibility and obligation to ensure your safety!"

Liu Yian chuckled, "Yes, we are comrades-in-arms and will be life partners in the future. Our love may not be as passionate as in TV dramas, but it has been tested by fire and blood."

"Don't think too much, and don't be fettered by the trivialities of life. Your mother's family's affairs are not important to me. I also hope that you can break through the shackles and work hard to make your own achievements in your own medical field."

"Just like my parents, they gave to each other, understood each other, and made progress together during the difficult years. Whether in thought or in life, they are on the same wavelength. I believe our feelings will not change with the passage of time."

Tang Ying looked at Liu Yian with admiration, "Yian, you only said that your father was a soldier and your mother was a doctor, and you didn't say anything else. Now I'm going to meet them, can you tell me more?"

Liu Yian smiled, "Okay, my father is... Actually, the person I admire the most is not my father, but my mother. Can you imagine? My father often goes on business trips, sometimes he is gone for half a month, or even longer."

"My mother never complained about my father's inability to take care of the family. I once asked her about it, but she said that she knew about this from the day she got married, so she didn't regret it. After I grew up, I helped take care of my younger brothers and sisters."

"My mother was admitted to university the year the college entrance examination was resumed. She showed great professionalism in both her studies and work, and she also produced a lot of research results. The only thing that frustrated my mother was that when she gave birth to my sister, someone who was jealous of her maliciously swapped the children."

"My father was not around at the time, and my grandparents were sent to a farm. My grandparents were also tied up and could not come in time. By chance, I was able to find my sister. Now our family is finally reunited."

Tang Ying admired her future mother-in-law even more. "Yian, you said the snacks we ate last time were sent by your sister. Which sister of yours sent them?"

Liu Yian replied: "She is my biological sister. This time I will take you directly back to the island to meet my biological sister Liu Meilan. She now lives with my grandfather on Sifang Island! Every time I call my mother, I can tell that she likes Meilan."

When Tang Ying was in love with Liu Yian, she rarely heard Liu Yian mention his family, let alone his other sister.

"Meilan, you must have suffered a lot. Now that you are back in your new family, you will get along with everyone. You hope that everyone will like you and accept you sincerely."

Liu Yian nodded, "Yes, I suffered a lot! Your parents treated you badly and favored boys over girls, but they didn't let you starve. They found out that you had good grades, so for whatever reason, they sent you to school. But my own sister was admitted to the best high school, but they didn't let her go, and they even beat and scolded her. They sold her to a disabled man in the village for a betrothal gift of 5,000 yuan..."

The information Liu Yian received was slightly different from the truth, but it was almost the same.

Tang Ying felt a chill down her spine. "Luckily, Meilan is lucky. If she were someone with a weak personality, she might not be alive anymore."

Liu Yian nodded, his voice distressed, "Yes! At first, mom, dad, and grandpa were nice to Meilan, probably mostly out of guilt, but after spending some time with her, they really like Meilan, which proves that Meilan is really good."

"Now she is even better. Although she cannot go to university, she has started to take correspondence courses at night school and learn business English. Not only that, she has also bought a fishing boat through her own efforts. Now she is the captain of Meilan and has opened a seafood fishing company."

Tang Ying was shocked. "Our little sister is amazing! She is less than 19 years old and has such learning ability and career. It's not easy!"

Liu Yian and Tang Ying talked in low voices along the way, which diluted the hurt Tang Ying felt from her mother's family and gradually restored her former cheerfulness and liveliness.

If you can’t escape your original family, then accept it.

Then find a way to strike a delicate balance so that it does not affect your life.

Always remember that the important thing in life is not to waste more of your energy on messy things.

It is her blessing to have a partner like Liu Yian.

The bus boat docked.

Liu Yian carried the luggage and Tang Ying carried a bag, which was filled with gifts for Liu Yian's family.

Liu Meilan was not in the mood to eat dinner. After taking a shower, she changed into comfortable home clothes and blow-dried her hair, which instantly flew out.

Her ramen-like hair looked like it had been blown up, fluffy and curly, and it was like there was a cloud on her head.

Hearing the knock on the door, Liu Meilan didn't even bother to tie her hair and came out to open the door.

Seeing the people outside, Liu Meilan exclaimed, "Brother, sister-in-law, welcome home."

It was the first time that Liu Yian and Tang Ying saw such frizzy hair. "Meilan, your hair..."

"I just washed my hair. I permed it yesterday and haven't taken care of it yet." Liu Meilan held her head with both hands, feeling very embarrassed. "Sister-in-law, brother, please come in quickly. Grandpa, brother and sister-in-law are back."

Tang Ying looked at the cute Liu Meilan and instantly fell in love with this lovely girl. "Meilan, hello. Nice to meet you."

"Sister-in-law, I'm glad to meet you too." Liu Meilan helped with the luggage. "Come in quickly, talk to Grandpa first. I'll tie my hair up and cook for you."

Old Mr. Liu was watching a movie in the house. When he heard his granddaughter's voice, he couldn't wait to come out of the house.

Looking at his tall and most promising grandson, Mr. Liu said happily, "Good, it's good to be back."

"Grandpa, hello, I'm Tang Ying." Tang Ying stepped forward and bowed to the old man.

Old Master Liu smiled, very satisfied, "Good, you are a good child. Come, sit inside."

Liu Meilan returned to the room and quickly took the curly hair cream on her palm and applied it on her hair.

The fried "instant noodles" finally calmed down.

Liu Meilan tied her curly hair into a bun and secured it with a pearl hairpin, which looked elegant and beautiful.

Liu Meilan breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that she could no longer let her hair down.

I had no appetite just now, but now my elder brother and his wife are back, which is a happy event for the family.

People feel refreshed when good things happen to them. Liu Meilan has a good appetite now, and she believes that her grandfather feels the same way.

My sister-in-law’s hometown is in the northwest, and people there like pasta.

Then eat noodles.

Of course you have to eat seafood noodles when you are at their beach.

Liu Meilan went to the water tank in the yard, fished out a grouper weighing more than three pounds, and cut it into slices.

The bamboo shrimps kept in the tank have already vomited out all the dirt in their stomachs and are being cleaned in clean water.

The conches and clams were also spit out of the mud and sand and quickly cleaned.

Prepare a large handful of vegetables and four balls of vermicelli and cook them in the pot.

Home-style seafood noodles are ready.

"Grandpa, brother and sister-in-law, it's time to eat." Liu Meilan brought a large bowl and placed it on the table.

Tang Ying stood up and came over to help carry the bowl.

"Sister-in-law, you don't have to serve it, I'll do it." Liu Meilan said with a smile.

But Tang Ying didn't listen and still insisted, "Sister Meilan, last time I used the seafood you sent over to do the work, Yi An made some food, and it tasted very good. Now that everything is fresh today, it must be even more delicious."

Liu Meilan was proud that the seafood noodles at home tasted especially good. "Sister-in-law, if you like it, you can eat more."

Tang Ying smiled and said, "This big bowl is enough for us to eat."

Liu Yian helped Mr. Liu to the dining table and said, "Grandpa, please sit down."

Mr. Liu called out, "Xiaoying, you should sit down and eat too. This is your own family, so don't be polite."

Tang Ying nodded and said, "Thank you, Grandpa, and thank you, Sister Meilan."

"Sister-in-law, please don't be polite with us. We are a family now. It's too formal to thank each other over a meal." Liu Meilan said with a smile, "Try the seafood noodles I made. If it doesn't suit your taste, tell me or teach me. I guarantee that you will be satisfied with the meal."

Tang Ying looked at the noodles in the bowl. There were fish, shrimp, some with shells, some long, and some heart-shaped.

I can't tell her name, but the tender meat revealed in her opened shell must be very delicious.

"It smells delicious, and it must taste even better." Tang Ying praised and picked up a piece of tender fish meat.

Fragrant and tender, so this is what seafood tastes like!

No wonder they are called delicacies from land and sea. If they don’t taste good, how can there be such a good word?

Seeing that Tang Ying wanted to drink soup, but was too embarrassed to hold the big bowl, Liu Meilan quickly went to get a soup spoon and said, "Sister-in-law, drink the soup."

"I was just about to drink the soup. The color of the seafood soup is very tempting." Tang Ying smiled, took the spoon and tasted it. "Oh my, it smells so good! Yi'an, if I didn't date you, I probably wouldn't be able to eat such delicious seafood noodles in my life."

Liu Yian laughed and shook his head when he heard this. "It's not that exaggerated. Seafood is not easy to transport at this stage. Once the cold chain transportation is improved in the future, seafood will probably be available all over the country."

"Since you like it, eating more is the best compliment to Meilan. Meilan, your cooking skills are inherited from your grandfather."

Liu Meilan was proud, "Of course, Grandpa's understanding of food is comparable to that of a gourmet. I followed Grandpa all day and learned a lot about how to prepare seafood."

"I catch seafood in the sea and cook it according to my taste. This kind of life is so beautiful. No one has such convenience as me! Of course, I will not miss the delicious food."

Liu Yian listened to Liu Meilan's words and could tell that his sister was a person who had a positive attitude towards life.

For a girl, liking food, loving life and having a career is already very good.

People who like food will think of making something delicious when they encounter something unhappy. When they eat well, they will feel better.

When you encounter happy things, it will be easier. You can cook a table of delicious food and share it with everyone. This will double your happiness and make you feel better.

Deep in Liu Yian's eyes, there is love for his sister and also love for her.

It's just that he has always been more reserved and doesn't know how to express himself.

Grandpa Liu smiled and said, "The third child has something to do at school during the winter vacation, but he should be able to come back tomorrow. Then, we can take a family photo."

He is old, and it is really one less opportunity for him to see his grandchildren when they come back from away.

He doesn't ask them to revolve around an old man like him, he just hopes that these younger generations can live in peace outside.

After dinner, Liu Meilan wanted to wash the dishes, but Liu Yian got there first, "Meilan, talk to your sister-in-law. This time when you come back, we and your family have prepared some gifts, so you can choose first."

Liu Meilan smiled brightly, "Okay, big brother loves me and won't let me wash the dishes, so I'll be lazy."

"Let's go and have fun." Liu Yian said with a smile. He was a soldier and was good at housekeeping, so simple things like washing dishes were no problem for him.

Tang Ying went into the room, took out her bag, and pulled out several small boxes from it.

"Meilan, where we are stationed, jade is abundant. Brother Li and I asked someone knowledgeable about it for help and bought some jade. Come and take a look. What color do you like?"

Liu Meilan looked over and praised, "It's really beautiful. Big brother and big sister-in-law are so thoughtful."

Tang Ying opened all the boxes and handed a jade ring to Grandpa Liu, "Grandpa, this is for you, play with it when you have nothing to do."

Mr. Liu took it and said, "It looks good. I like it. This is my first visit and you guys gave me a gift. I accepted it. But don't spend money in the future. Do you understand?"

Tang Ying nodded, "I understand, Grandpa. Even if we want to send it every time, Yi An and I can't afford it."

Liu Meilan picked out a pair of light green jade bracelets, which were of the right size. When she wore them on her wrists, the light green bracelets looked very beautiful on her white wrists.

Liu Meilan asked with a smile: "Sister-in-law, I want this pair of bracelets, is that okay?"

Tang Ying nodded, "Okay, if you like it, keep it. This light color suits you. This dark color is better for Aunt Xie."

While they were discussing the bracelet, Mrs. Chen came over with red eyes, a look of panic on her face, and a slight tremor. "Meilan, I...I can't work on the ship anymore."
