Even if Wu Xiaohua is unwilling, she can only choose to accept her fate. She was about to become a wife, and she was looking forward to this day. The day finally came, and she professed to be willing, even though she hated the man terribly.

Wu Xiaohua went around in circles, spent all the money, and changed into a red wedding dress, a pair of red embroidered shoes, a pair of earrings, a copper mirror, a wooden comb, a crested hairpin, a gold collar, and a red gauze hijab. There was also a pile of rouge gouache, a pair of scissors, and a delicate wooden jewelry box.

When she opened her face in the rouge shop, she saw herself in the mirror for the first time, a pair of almond eyes were slightly raised, her small nose was like a female star in a pictorial, the corners of her lips were thick but smart, her skin was slightly yellow, her hair was in the middle, and the fly in the ointment was that she was too skinny. However, it is much better than the reflection in the water.

She bought all the remaining silver dollars for food, and she didn't even leave a single star of her own money. All the food that I wanted to eat but didn't eat stuffed the two back baskets.

When she went back, it was past noon, she thought that Daddy had returned, and called "Daddy" softly, but no one responded.

"Ah Da...... You're back? Daddy hasn't come back yet...... Ahem......"

Seeing Wu Xiaohua coming in, Wu Xiaoding put down the tattered newspaper in his hand, got up violently, and couldn't help coughing. A boy of twelve or thirteen years old, tormented by illness, looked like he was only eight or nine years old.

"Lie down!" Wu Xiaohua scolded, hurriedly put down the back basket, and poured out all the food in the back basket. A large pile of food was piled up in front of Wu Xiaoding, almost filling the entire small bed.

Wu Xiaohua opened one of the paper packages, and the fragrance was fragrant, overflowing the entire cabin, and even drifting to the bow of someone else's house.

"Roast duck! Eat! ”

Wu Xiaohua twisted a duck leg and handed it to Wu Xiaoding, Wu Xiaoding received it in his hand, took a bite hard, and hurriedly handed it to Wu Xiaohua, saying, "Ah Da, you eat it too!" ”

Wu Xiaohua smiled and excused herself: "You eat!" In the future, Ah Da will have the opportunity to eat ......"

Hearing this, Wu Xiaoding stuffed a mouthful of duck meat like a fish in his throat and couldn't swallow it.

"What's wrong, Xiao Ding? Did you choke? Ah Da pours water for you! ”

Wu Xiaohua hurriedly got up and poured him a bowl of water, and as soon as the water was brought to him, he knocked it to the ground.

"What's wrong with you? Ah Da is going to get married, he is going to marry a rich man, and from now on, he will never have to live a hard life again, aren't you happy? Wu Xiaohua held back the grievances in her stomach, bent down to pick up the bowl with continuous cracks, and poured water again.

The water was almost gone, Wu Xiaohua picked up the kettle and shook it a few times, only poured out a small sip, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Wu Xiaoding was really choked, he didn't refuse the water handed by Wu Xiaohua anymore, drank it obediently, and said to Wu Xiaohua: "I don't like him!" He's always bullying us, he's not a good guy! Didn't you say that you wouldn't marry him if you died? ”

Wu Xiaohua smiled reluctantly and said, "Others are not bad, he only deliberately embarrassed us because he likes Ah Da...... Ah Da is not young, and he is going to marry someone after all. It's better to follow him than to follow the big dragon next door, right? ”

"What's wrong with Brother Da Long? Brother Da Long is tall and big, capable of working and good ......" Wu Xiaoding thought, if it were him, he would definitely choose the right big dragon next door. The people in the Wen Lang family are all rampant and domineering, and Wu Xiaohua doesn't know how many days she can live when she enters the door. Thinking about it, the golden beans suddenly fell.

"Okay, okay, I didn't say that Dalong is bad......" Wu Xiaohua quickly peeled an orange and stuffed it into his hand, got up and said, "You are obedient yourself." Daddy went to get a doctor for you, I'm going to take a look, I've been there for so long? Why haven't you come back yet? ”

After saying that, there was the sound of a steamer's whistle outside.

Wu Xiaohua hurriedly got out of the cabin, leaned out, and saw the dilapidated "Victory" coming from afar with thick black smoke, anchored weakly on the seashore.

The sky was covered in smoke, there was no sign of a sailor on the deck, and the smell of gunpowder and blood filled the air.

Outside the Bund, a group of dressed paramedics jumped out of a military vehicle and rushed to the "Victory" on a stretcher. The wounded were carried down one after another, some were covering their wounds and moaning, some were hugging their comrades and crying bitterly, and some were talking nonsense and looked like they were insane.

Wu Xiaohua got off the ship and walked all the way towards the "Victory".

The guards quickly gathered and built a line of defense, blocking all the ordinary people who wanted to see the excitement.

There are different opinions, Wu Xiaohua listened to it, and the word "shark" was heard the most.

After a while, a military helicopter roared down from the sky, and Shen Yuting and Shen Dashuai rushed from other places when they heard the news.

"Rubbish! It's all fucking rubbish! Kill Lao Tzu! ”

In the afterglow of the setting sun, the shadow of the sailors was stretched very long. Shots rang out, blood splattered on the spot.

Wu Xiaohua hid behind the rocks, followed the shadow at her feet, and saw Shen Yuting execute several sailors on the spot. Such a brutal act frightened her quickly covered her mouth, stared at her frightened eyes, and sat behind the rocks without moving.

Wu Xiaohua returned home in a trance, sat on the edge of the bed and sobbed, and the sound of gunfire was still endless.

The conversation she heard behind the rocks was like a sharp blade, ripping open her heart bit by bit.

"Where's the chief?"

"Back to the big handsome, the chief ...... The chief sacrificed ...... Not...... No body found......"

"The chief sacrificed...... Are you back? What do you do? The body hasn't been found, what are you doing here!? If you don't find it, I'll give it to Lao Tzu and continue to look for it! A bunch of greedy and afraid of death! ”

"Dashuai, you better kill us! The mermaids...... Those sharks are amazing! subordinates, subordinates dare not ......"

"Rubbish! It's all fucking rubbish! Kill Lao Tzu! ”

"Dashuai, spare your life, Dashuai...... Big ......"

"Bang! Boom! Bang ......"

Wu Xiaoding leaned over and asked, "Ah Da, what's wrong with you?" I know, you don't want to marry that bastard at all...... It's best if you can marry Brother Da Long......"

Wu Xiaohua didn't care if the crying was ugly, shook her head, choked up and said, "Chief Shen...... Chief Shen sacrificed...... He's dead...... Dead without a corpse...... But...... But I can't do anything...... I can't do anything......"

"Ah Da...... Don't cry...... Mr. Shen...... Mr. Shen, he is so powerful, how could he die? ”

Wu Xiaoding's eyes were red, he didn't know what to say to comfort her, so he had to get up silently, go to the rope outside the cabin to take down the old handkerchief that had been washed and washed, and give it to Wu Xiaohua to wipe her tears.

Wu Xiaohua wiped away her tears, clenched her fists, her nails embedded in her flesh, gritted her teeth hatefully and said, "Why is God so unfair!" Why don't good people live long, but wicked people live forever?! ”

Wu Xiaohua got up and went under the bed to take out a broken pot, grabbed a few pieces of straw paper, put them in the pot and burned them, and said with words in her mouth: "Chief Shen, there are so many brothers with you, you won't be too lonely on Huangquan Road...... There's still a lot I haven't had time to say to you, now...... I'm going to get married, and when I get married, I'm no longer qualified to say these things to you...... Mr. Shen, do you know? From the first day you came, I swore that you would not marry in this life...... But they all say I'm not worthy of you...... Slowly, I felt that I really didn't deserve you...... As for your fiancée, she must be a thousand or a hundred times more beautiful than me...... I wonder if she's going to be as sad as I am...... Every year today, I will burn paper for you...... Mr. Shen...... Mr. Shen, can you hear me? Mr. Shen ......"

"Ahda, what are you doing here? Ahem...... Ah Da, don't be sad, Chief Shen is for everyone...... Ahem...... If he knew you were so upset, he would have scolded you...... Ah Da ...... Ahem...... Don't burn it...... Ahh Perhaps, Mr. Shen, he is not dead......"

Wu Xiaoding's words stimulated Wu Xiaohua, and Wu Xiaohua said: "That's right! He rushed out, scooped up a ladle of seawater, doused the unburned paper, and rushed out of the door.

"Ah Da, where are you going?"

Wu Xiaohua ran all the way, ignoring Wu Xiaoding's call behind her.

Wu Xiaohua borrowed a small boat and quietly rowed out to sea while the sailors were changing the guard for dinner. She paddled farther and farther until she was no longer visible.

The speed of the boat is very slow, and I don't know how long it will take to row to find Shen Fusheng. The vast sea, perhaps, is impossible to find!

The sky was getting darker and darker, and Wu Xiaohua couldn't help but be frightened when she thought of the word "shark". It was ticking and it was raining, and she couldn't stay too long. She gritted her teeth, thinking about Daddy and Brother, and reason drove her to turn around and return immediately.
