Chapter Forty-Three: Far Cry
Master Qin looked at Ye Yu and then at Xu. A little girl can't be the master of what she says, he still has to listen to the adult.
Xu hurriedly nodded in agreement with his daughter's meaning, since they have already come, the household registration must be done.
"In that case, then sit down for a while. Wait for me to write an essay. ”
Master Qin's movements were fast, and he came out with a document in less than a quarter of an hour. After learning that both mother and daughter were illiterate, he first read the contents of the paperwork. After confirming that it was correct, the mother and daughter were asked to press their handprints.
"Okay, you can collect this village voucher yourself. I'm going to find out your original family register split and register it in the register. Wait a while and you'll be able to go home with your own stickers."
"Thank you, Master Qin!"
The sound of the small fish acknowledging was crisp and sweet. It was clear that she was in a very good mood at the moment. Seeing her daughter so happy, Xu couldn't help but smile.
On the way, her daughter had already told her that the glass cup had sold a lot of silver, and at least for more than ten years, the two of them would not have to worry about the head tax and other taxes. Therefore, the pressure in Xu's heart plummeted, and he felt that the establishment of a female household did not seem to be as terrible as he imagined.
Half an hour later, the mother and daughter walked out of the county office, carrying a hot new household sticker in their arms, and their mood was indescribably happy.
"Let's go, Auntie, let's go redeem the silver ticket, and then take the boat back!"
Thinking that he would be able to row the new boat home soon, Ye Yu was so excited that he wanted to pull A-Niang all the way away.
It was rare for her to have such a lively time, Xu secretly wiped the corners of her eyes with relief.
In the past, because of her illness, her daughter was preoccupied all day long, and her brows never stretched. She hadn't seen such a happy smile in years.
Hey, she's so sorry for her daughter.
"Yu'er, look at the road, don't fall!"
The mother and daughter happily went to the silver village and exchanged the five hundred taels for a smaller silver ticket, and then rowed the raft to the place where the boat was bought, and used their freshly baked household stickers to buy their first big belongings.
Xu Shi boarded the boat, he couldn't see enough left and right, touched here and touched that end, and the joy in his eyes overflowed.
"This boat is so good!"
"No, it can shelter from the wind and rain, and the oars don't have to be held by themselves all the time, which can save a lot of effort."
Ye Yu is most satisfied with the latter point, who wants to save effort and keep digging in the sea.
"Auntie, you go down first, I'll try the boat."
Although the little girl had learned how to row with her father before, at that time, she had her father to guide her and her brother to correct her, so it was the first time she rowed alone.
She wants to practice rocking the paddle turn, and it will be safer to familiarize herself with the feel and then let A-Niang come up.
Xu watched his daughter row the new boat in and out of the inlet several times, at first it felt a little floating, and the boat was also crooked, but soon rowed like a veteran.
"Big sister, your daughter is amazing. If it were a man, he would definitely be able to be a deputy on a big ship. ”
Xu was proud in his heart, and automatically ignored the words behind the boatman.
Why do you want to be a man in order to be promising? Her daughter can support the family at a young age, and she is more responsible than her own aunt, she is already very, very promising.
"Auntie! Let's go home! ”
Ye Yu's voice was brisk, and it seemed that the small fishing boat was rowing very well. Xu hurriedly answered, politely said goodbye to the boatman before trotting to get on the boat.
Not to mention, the feeling of sitting on your own boat is very different.
Xu looked at everything very satisfied, and praised his daughter while sitting and continuing to look at it. Originally, she was still very distressed about the silver, but she didn't feel any pity at this time.
Soon, the mother and daughter rowing the new boat returned to Baoshan Island.
They didn't know how much time it took to get back this time, but it was certainly much faster than paddling a raft.
"Yu'er, if Ming'er is free, you can also teach A-Niang how to row. If you go out again in the future, we can take turns to come, so that you can relax, and A-Niang doesn't have to be separated from you. ”
Xu used to always worry about her daughter going out alone, but because of the limited load-bearing capacity of the raft and the fact that her body couldn't blow the wind, she could only watch her daughter go out, and then wait for her to come back with fear.
Now it's different, the family's small fishing boat heard from the boatseller that it can carry six or seven adults, and he can finally go out with his daughter in the future!
Ye Yu looked at Ah Niang's eager eyes, and suddenly felt funny. She agreed, and took A-Niang's hand and returned to the grass hut together.
Xiao Hei, who heard the movement, first snorted, and then probably smelled the breath of the two and quieted down again, squatting at the intersection and wagging his tail.
Many dogs in the village will run very enthusiastically to greet their owners when they see them, but Xiao Hei probably still hasn't recognized the owner, so his attitude is not so eager.
The mother and daughter don't mind much, anyway, Xiao Hei probably won't leave this island for the rest of his life, and he will naturally trust after a long time.
After a short rest, the two of them began to work on the expansion of the thatched hut, and before they knew it, it was already dark.
At this time, Xiao Yu's men had rowed a borrowed canoe and quietly approached the island near the village. The island was silent, not even a piece of fire, and the sea breeze was blowing, which was quite terrifying.
He watched carefully for a while, found a hidden place to dock the boat before it was completely dark, and then covered his face and took what he had prepared and went straight to the hut.
Erya, who was in a high fever, faintly heard the sound of footsteps, and she thought it was her stepmother who came to taunt her, but when the fire was bright, she saw a masked man as soon as she opened her eyes!!
Both pairs of eyes were wide open, each very frightened.
Erya's frightened teeth were chattering, and she couldn't even say a word.
"You, you, who are you?!!"
A few words seemed to consume most of her strength, and after saying that, the little girl gasped rapidly, and she didn't know whether she was sick or frightened.
The guy was frightened, but the face under the light was too terrifying, densely covered with red rashes, and he was not lightly ill at first sight.
Oh, my God! It can't be some kind of infectious disease, right?!
Could it be smallpox?!
As soon as this thought came out, the guy's cold sweat came out. You must know that he has not had smallpox yet, and if he is infected, he is simply gambling with his life.
No, we have to go!
Xiao Yu's guy ran away, and he forgot about a thousand taels a long time ago.
If you have money, you have to spend it.
He stumbled and soon lost his movement. And the door of the straw hut that he kicked open was still wide open, blowing in gusts of cold wind.
Erya didn't have the strength to get up and close the door at all, so she gradually lost consciousness......
It's on the shelves tomorrow, at least four more! Thank you for your support!!
