Wei Hang, more than a year after graduating from university, studied in the marine major, because the major is cold, it has been difficult to find a job. At first, I worked as a handyman for about 2,000 people in the Oceanic Bureau. But some time ago, he had a few arguments with his superiors and was fired. Until now, the work is still at a loss.

Tangjia Village sits on the edge of Fisherman's Bay, a long coastline of pristine sand facing the vast South China Sea. Blue sky, white clouds, secluded sea, sandy beach...... What catches the eye is a beautiful picture, like a place outside the world that does not mess with the world.

However, this is a backward and poor small fishing village, which is Weihang's hometown. Back here for almost a month, the old mother at home is looking for her daughter-in-law every day.

Listening to the voices of his mother and matchmaker from the living room, Wei Hang was bored again, shook his head, and laughed at himself. At the beginning, he was admitted to university and became the first college student in the village. But who would have thought that the salary of a college student is not as high as that of a migrant worker?

"Aunt Zhang, doesn't that girl from Donald's third family look down on my family?" Wei Hang's mother's favorite daughter-in-law is still the second daughter of Tang's third family in Xicun. This girl is also a college student, although she is a junior college, but at least she is relatively well-matched.

Aunt Zhang secretly glanced at Wei Hang's room, shook her head and said, "The second daughter of Tang Laosan has found a job of four or five thousand in a big city, and she is relaxed, I am afraid she will not marry back to our village." At the beginning, a young man from another village wanted to come to the door to pursue it, and they made it clear that they should have a car and a building. ”

After speaking, he pretended to look at the room he was in. To be honest, this house is almost antique, and few women can look at it. The surname Wei is the second largest surname in this village, mainly distributed in the East Village, where the land is the least.

Wei's mother still doesn't understand? Secretly sighed, blaming herself for not being able to do anything with her husband, and her son was looked down upon.

"According to me, the daughter of the Tofu woman in Beicun is good, she looks smart, although she is also a little poor, but people don't mind! The most important thing is that people are interested in your Xiaohang. "Aunt Zhang still highly recommends the daughter of the tofu woman.

A face flashed in Wei Hang's mind: his fair skin was the same as tofu, he was not very tall, but he had a good figure, and his clothes were washed white, but he was unusually clean. The girl's name is Zhang Xueru, and she used to be classmates with Wei Hang. The family made tofu for a living, and his father died on a voyage to sea, leaving three mothers and daughters to depend on each other.

Unfortunately, her second daughter has not yet graduated. "Mother Wei is still a little unwilling. The daughter of the tofu mother-in-law can also do it, but the culture is a little low, and she only graduated from junior high school. I heard that I went to work later, and I wanted to support my sister to finish college.

The corners of Aunt Zhang's mouth twitched, and she said secretly, you woman is still worried about other college students.

"Hang'er is still taking a nap inside, I'll go in and ask him what he means!" "Wei's mother is helpless, if her family is better, maybe she can find a college student's daughter-in-law."

"Okay, you go and ask Xiaohang what he means. The eldest sister happens to be at home these days, maybe she will go out to work in a few days, and then there will be no such shop. Aunt Zhang was slightly happy, this medium is made, and there are no less than 1,000 or hundreds of red envelopes.

Wei's mother walked into Wei Hang's room and saw Wei Hang surfing the Internet in front of her laptop, slightly embarrassed. Since her son came back, she told him about it almost every day, and she could see that her son was very disgusted with it, and he frequently asked to go out to find a job in the past two days, and he must have wanted to avoid it.

"Hang'er didn't sleep?"

Wei Hang smiled bitterly in his heart: You told Aunt Zhang so loudly, can I fall asleep?

"No, I can't sleep. Mom, is it a blind date again?" Wei Hang asked knowingly.

Mother Wei smiled: "Hang'er, you are not young anymore." Don't blame your mother for being troublesome, you are only a boy in our family, if you don't get married and have a child, my mother is afraid that she can't live with her ancestors!"

As soon as he said this, Wei Hang had a headache, and the rural people carried their ancestors out at every turn.

"Okay! You're talking about Zhang Xueru just now, right? I'll ask her out for a walk tomorrow when I'm free, okay?" In front of his mother, Wei Hang could only surrender. Fortunately, the little sister went out to play, otherwise she would have to be laughed at by that girl again.

Wei's mother was overjoyed, although the girl was not the most favorite, but now she was more concerned about her son's attitude. This time, this kid doesn't seem to have any resistance, and he seems to have a good impression of that girl, right?

"Okay, then I won't rush you. She hurried out and chatted with Aunt Zhang.

Aunt Zhang was even more happy, left without saying a few words, and walked towards Beicun, ready to say hello to the tofu woman, so that the eldest sister of the Zhang family could be mentally prepared.

"Mom, I'm going to go for a walk. Wei Hang came out of the room and saw his mother weaving a net.

"Are you going to find the girl you just mentioned?" Wei Mu was pleasantly surprised.

Wei Hang had a black line on his head and thought to himself: Mom, can you decorate anything else in your mind besides your daughter-in-law? It seems that all Chinese women are like this, and the marriage of their sons and the reproduction of offspring are the top priorities, and they are also the most concerned about them.

His scalp tightened slightly, and he squeezed out a smile: "Just go to the beach casually." ”

Wei Mu was a little disappointed and nodded: "Go ahead! Come back early in the evening." ”

When I went out, I saw a lot of villagers along the way, and most of them greeted each other kindly. In person, everyone talked and laughed, but Wei Hang knew that these people looked down on themselves a little bit. After all, after studying in college, it is not as good as a working boy, and it is not as good as the daughter of Donald's third family, it can be seen that this baby has not worked hard in college, and her grades are probably very poor, right?

"I thought that the Wei family would be developed in the future, but who knew that this baby didn't study well in college, and it is said that she can't even find a job now. The daughters of Donald's third family are much better, sitting in the office and sighing at the air conditioner, with a high salary and easy work. ”

"But isn't it? I just don't know what will happen to the second sister of the Zhang family after college. ”

"It should be better than this guy, right?"

……

Wei Hang subconsciously walked a few steps faster, listening to the rights and wrongs of these gossiping women in the village, sometimes he really couldn't stand it.

In fact, many college students from rural areas will have this embarrassing situation. When I met an uncle, I asked you what job and how much your salary was, and I really didn't know how to answer. They simply don't realize how big the competition is in today's society, and college students don't have much advantage.

However, before he could go far, Wei Hang bumped into the old village chief. This village chief has been in office for more than ten years, surnamed Tang, is over 60 years old, and is a kind person. He has been conscientious in his life, but he has not been able to change the current situation of poverty and backwardness in the village.

"It's Xiaohang! I haven't seen you much in the past two days, and I've been dragged on a blind date by my family a lot, right?" said the old man happily. It's not a secret, everyone in the village knows it.

Wei Hang said hello and nodded, still respecting this old man. When he was in college, the old village chief helped him a lot, and kept saying that he must train the first college student in the village. In the face of this kind old man, Wei Hang always felt a little guilty, just like facing his parents, feeling ashamed of them.

"yes! ”

Old Tang Village Chief smiled, and did not delve into this topic. He was still very concerned about the first college student in the village, and he didn't believe that the village spread like that, and this child didn't learn anything at all when he went to college.

"What are your plans for the future?"

Wei Hang's scalp tightened slightly, and he couldn't bear to say frustrating words to these people who had high hopes for him, and smiled reluctantly: "I want to stay in my hometown for a while and see what development prospects there are." ”

"Oh, aren't you going to go out to develop?" said the old village chief, Tang Lao, was slightly stunned, very surprised.

"It's actually not easy to mix outside, but when I came back this time, I found the village like this, and my heart was a little blocked. These days, I have also thought a lot, trying to find some ways to drive the development of my hometown. Wei Hang said subconsciously.

He did have this idea, the pace of life outside made him feel very tired, although the family was a little poor, but he enjoyed the comfortable life very much. As for those who claim to their parents that they want to go out and find a job, they are nothing more than helpless words that they were forced to be miserable by their mothers at home.

The old village chief's eyes lit up slightly, and while he was relieved, he was also quite worried, and he was silent for a while.

"Have you discussed it with your family?"

"Not yet, I have to come up with a way to develop before I dare to tell them, otherwise I will definitely be scolded. Wei Hang replied truthfully.

"Well, when you're ready, go and tell me about it, village chief, and I'll support you as much as possible. However, you also have to make a result, otherwise I won't be able to help you when you get to the bottom. "Old Tang Village Chief still maintains Weihang from the bottom of his heart.

"It's good, thank you for your old man, I always want you to work hard. ”

The old village chief waved his hand, smiled and left.

Wei Hang looked up at the village a few times, and said that the dilapidated fishing village, in addition to fishing, what other way could it be developed? There was very little land that could be planted in the village, and it was impossible for the sandy land to be cultivated into farmland, so the rice eaten by the villagers had to be purchased by the outside villages. Also, the traffic is not good, there is only one dirt road leading to the outside.

With shallow sea resources dwindling, fishing villages like Tangjiacun are becoming more and more desperate. Therefore, the people in the village want to get out of the rut and find a glimmer of life.

When he came to the beach, stepping on the white and delicate sand, and kicking away the cute shells on the side, Wei Hang panicked.

At this time, a small sea turtle by the sea attracted Wei Hang's attention. I saw that the little turtle was biting a gray bead in its mouth, and it was swept into the beach by the sea, and it was trying to climb back into the sea.

"Could it be the Black Pearl?" Wei Hang's heart jumped, and he hurriedly rushed over, turning the little turtle over and letting it kick its feet to the sky.

The preciousness of black pearls, Weihang is still a little heard. His heart was slightly hot, and he pinched the little turtle's head with one hand, and put the other hand to the little turtle's mouth, trying to snatch the beads.

The little turtle seemed to be very annoyed by the banditry of this uninvited guest, and when it saw that the beads were snatched away, it quickly bit Wei Hang's finger to vent its dissatisfaction.

"Oh, you little turtle, be careful that I stew you. Wei Hang pinched his fingers, and they were all bitten and bleeding.

He didn't bother with the little turtle, picked it up and threw it back into the sea, and then picked up the gray beads on the beach.

And just as his hand touched the beads, the scene in front of him made him frightened and terrified. I saw that after the gray beads touched the blood, they shone slightly, and then suddenly absorbed his blood, and they couldn't shake it off when it stuck to the wound.

Gradually, he noticed that his head was a little dizzy, which was obviously a sign of excessive blood loss. Before he lost consciousness, he had one last thought: Is he going to be killed by a bead? This way of death is too embarrassing, right?

Falling on the beach, Wei Hang had a dream that he could hunt for treasures at a depth of thousands of meters, and beads could allow him to come and go freely at the bottom of the sea.
