Chapter 40 (Second update) Jiang Xia must not be picked up
Wen Wan's eyes turned red as she looked at the seine net on the beach and the small piles of shrimps collected by Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia.
Today she was forced by her father and stepmother to give up her studies again, saying that they had no money to pay her tuition since school started, and asked her to find a job to make money to help support the family.
She has been waiting for this typhoon, waiting to collect shrimps and sell them to make money to pay for school. She does not want to follow the same path of her life.
She did not finish high school in her previous life because she did not earn enough tuition this summer and was forced to drop out of school.
The stepmother thinks that a girl will get married sooner or later, and reading too many books is of no use. It is better to go out early to make money and help support the family, otherwise it will be in vain when she gets married. She will not be given money to study in high school. She has always earned her own tuition fees.
Her father has no biological sons, only two biological daughters, one is her, and the other is the sister he and his stepmother later had, so his father raised the sons brought over by his stepmother as his biological sons. I thought that I would rely on this adopted son to support me until the end of my life. All the money in the family is tied to this adopted child flower!
Furthermore, Father Wen also believes that no matter how many books a woman reads, it is better to find a good husband and get a good marriage than any good job.
So in her previous life, she did not finish her senior year of high school, so she went out to make money to support her family.
The money she earns from working helps her stepmother’s son and stepsister go to school.
She got married not long after working.
She didn't marry much better than Jiang Xia in her previous life. The man she married was a gambler.
The man she married was also found by her stepmother. Although she was married for the second time, the man worked in a supply and marketing cooperative and had a decent job. The ex-wife divorced because she had not given birth to a child for several years.
The man had a good job and said that after getting married, he could get her to work in the supply and marketing cooperative and give her a large bride price.
Stepmother said, isn’t studying just to find a good job? Working in a supply and marketing cooperative is a guaranteed job, and even my stepbrother may not be able to find such a good job after graduating from college.
She also felt that her stepmother's words made sense at the time. After all, the work in the supply and marketing cooperative was really good. How many people wanted to join it?
Then the man really liked her and was very kind to her. He brought her a lot of things every time he came. He also promised her that after getting married, she could continue to go to college if she didn’t want to work in a supply and marketing cooperative. He raised her.
So she got married! She was admitted to college, but she found out she was pregnant just after school started, and ultimately failed to graduate from college.
Because that man showed his true nature after she got pregnant. He was a bad gambler. He would gamble every month as soon as his salary was paid. He lost all his money before going home. Later, he was arrested for gambling. All lost.
After she gave birth to the child, she still had to make money to support him and the child. But he secretly used the money she earned to gamble, and when he lost it all, he knelt down and begged for forgiveness. She forgave him again and again because her daughter was pregnant with a second child...
Later, the man refused to change his ways and sold out all the houses, and his daughter also learned bad things...
Looking back on the past, Wen Wan stopped thinking, she would never follow the old path in this life, and she would not provide another heir. The stepsister is studying and will not marry that man again. She wants to go to college by herself and get rid of the fate of her previous life!
College students in this era are very popular!
Her stepbrother and stepsister both went to college and found very good jobs after graduating from college. Their lives were much better than hers! A life of peace and stability, and a pension of tens of thousands when old.
Wen Wan looked at the seine net and small piles of shrimps.
Since Jiang Xia is also reborn, it still blocks her from making money to pay for tuition and change her destiny.
Then she doesn’t need to be polite. From now on, let’s all rely on our own abilities!
See who can change their destiny.
Originally, she thought that if Jiang Xia was also reborn and she was unwilling to divorce Zhou Chenglei, then she would not be able to be a mistress.
But now I think about it, Zhou Chenglei doesn’t like Jiang Xia.
And her dreams are too real, they are all omens, everything she dreams will happen, so Zhou Chenglei must be her husband in the future.
Jiangxia is now the dove occupying the magpie's nest.
A while ago, she dreamed that Zhou Chenglei saved her from being swept away by the waves. She vaguely felt that today was the moment when her and Zhou Chenglei's destiny began.
Wen Wan hurriedly ran to Zhou Chenglei and said with a smile: "Brother Zhou, are you so early?"
Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia were separated to collect shrimps in a place where shrimps are densely packed.
Zhou Chenglei only replied "Hmm" without raising his head or even looking at her. He lowered his head and used a rake to pull the shrimp steaks together.
Wen Wan feels that there is no need to rush, he will save herself soon. Now it is important to seize the time to collect shrimps and make money, otherwise she will have no money to pay for school fees.
The waves are quite big now. She didn’t expect Jiang Xia to be so smart that she would even use seine nets to block the shrimps that were carried away by the waves.
However, she came prepared and brought a push board for harvesting grains. However, when the push board was scraped, there was more mud and sand than shrimps. It would also be troublesome to clean up, and the beach was not Flat ground is not easy to scrape either.
She saw the improved bamboo rake used by Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia. With a gentle pull, it could catch only the shrimps, and the sand and mud could also leak out from the gaps, leaving behind individual shrimps. Moreover, the rake had teeth and was not afraid of unevenness. , which is much more convenient!
Why didn’t she think of using a rake?
Wen Wan had no choice but to give up using the push board and pick it up directly.
Besides the shrimps, Wen Wan had another dream last night, about two conchs. Those two conchs were picked up and pearls were found.
Those two conchs are also her goal today!
Wen Wan glanced at the basket next to Zhou Chenglei. There was no conch, so she felt relieved.
She quickly picked up shrimps and looked for conches at the same time.
While it was raining now, no one came. After a while, the rain stopped and the people in the village came out.
Not long after, Father Zhou arrived.
He saw that Zhou Chenglei and Jiang Xia hadn't gone home for so long, so he came over after guessing that the beach might be stocked. Of course, he was more worried about something happening to them, so he came to take a look.
Zhou's father saw something unusual on the beach from a distance, and he hurried over.
Zhou Chenglei saw him and said, "Dad, please help shovel these piles of shrimp into the basket."
Jiang Xia and Zhou Chenglei both used rakes to collect several piles of shrimp.
Although it is only a small pile, it is still a pile of several kilograms.
"Okay!" Zhou's father hurriedly ran over to pick up the piles of shrimps with a dustpan and poured them into the basket.
He smiled from ear to ear: "Fortunately, Xiaoxia is so well prepared!"
If you don't bring enough things, you can run back to get them, and the round trip time will be enough to collect two or three kilograms of shrimps. Got it!
Yes, it’s time to collect shrimps. Now the beach is like drying millet, full of shrimps!
Okay! A bit exaggerated!
But there are indeed scattered shrimps everywhere.
Wen Wan became even more anxious when she saw Father Zhou coming, which proved that more and more people would come.
She just picked up a basket now.
And I haven’t found the two conchs that produced pearls in the dream.
But the beach is very vast, so it’s not easy to find it?
She looked around: Where is the pearl conch?
Wen Wan's eyes suddenly paused and fell on the sleeves Jiang Xia was wearing.
The hand that picked up the conch in the dream was slender and white, round and delicate. At first glance, it looked like a pampered hand, but in great contrast, it was wearing a sleeve.
Exactly the same as Jiang Xia’s sleeves.
Wen Wan's heart was beating fast.
Jiang Xia must not pick up her pearl conch!
