A Guide to Spoiling Your Wife After Marriage

Chapter 755 The Declining Village

"That's because my wife likes to go out and sketch."

"When we were young, we traveled to many places together. She didn't like crowded tourist attractions, which would hinder her creation, so we picked some unpopular, remote places with good scenery."

"The last time I came here with my wife was four years ago."

Tang Jingsheng raised her head and looked into the distance, the outline of this island became more and more clear in front of her eyes, and when she got closer, she found that it was indeed a small island.

Seven or eight passengers went ashore one after another on the boat. Judging from their attire, some were photography enthusiasts, and some were tourists who came to explore on foot. It seemed that only Tang Jingsheng and Lan Gaodan came to look for delicacies.

"Walk 500 meters to the hillside ahead, and you will reach the small village."

Lan Gaodan is very familiar with the topographical environment here.

After landing on the island, everyone dispersed and began to be busy with their own affairs.

Lan Gaodan walked to the front quickly, leading the way for Tang Jingsheng, while at the same time pushing aside obstacles such as shrubs and vines that were in the way. From the growth of these plants, it can be seen that the island is almost deserted and lifeless.

Tang Jingsheng was even more grateful to Lan Gaodan, if it wasn't for his help and leading the way, she might not have known that there was such a place in her life.It is also impossible for her to be there and experience the joy of finding delicious ingredients.

Under the guidance of Lan Gaodan, the two soon saw an old house covered with moss on the hillside.

It faces the sea and has a humid climate, which is very conducive to the growth of moss vegetation. The houses in front of us seem to be covered with dark green coats, and they look like log cabins in fairy tales.

"The house here is really special, not only has a sense of age, but also has a fairytale look!" Tang Jingsheng panted slightly, feeling emotional.

Lan Gaodan said: "The years of these houses should be at least 20 years. After that, people no longer waste time and effort to build new houses on this island, because they found that the climate and harsh environment here It is becoming less and less suitable for their children and grandchildren to live in."

Tang Jingsheng found that many of the houses here have been abandoned for a long time. Due to the sun and rain all year round, and the constant blowing from the sea wind, many houses have collapsed due to disrepair.

The doors of many houses are open, and the bricks and tiles on the roof have long since disappeared, leaving only some dilapidated eaves, which can vaguely see the original appearance.

"It seems that there is nothing wrong with saying that this place is in ruins. Are there really some people living here?"

Lan Gaodan replied: "Although this place looks scary, it is definitely not a deserted island. There is nothing to worry about."

As he spoke, he continued to walk forward. After passing through a large area of ​​collapsed walls and ruins, a dozen or so relatively solid and complete houses appeared in front of him.

Tang Jingsheng's gaze was attracted by a petite figure, and she finally found a living person on this island.

When she got closer, she realized that it should be a young girl.In addition to the conspicuous two ponytails, she also paid special attention to the shabby clothes she was wearing.

The little girl was immersed in washing clothes at this time, and she didn't notice someone approaching behind her at all.

"Hello, little friend." Tang Jingsheng greeted cautiously with a very gentle voice.

When this petite figure turned around, Tang Jingsheng saw a dirty but cute face with melon seeds, and a pair of big eyes that were so white that they shone.

Compared with Tang Nian, this child is not much older, but at this time he is doing laundry seriously, and he looks very skilled.

"My child, what's your name?"

The child shook his head, obviously full of vigilance towards Tang Jingsheng's sudden appearance.Few outsiders visit this island, so it's no wonder that children look at them strangely.

Tang Jingsheng was not discouraged, but asked again: "We are not bad people, we just came to the island to look around, are there any adults in your family?"

Perhaps sensing Tang Jingsheng's kindness, the little girl stood up and wiped the sweat from her forehead before opening her mouth timidly.

"My mom is out, but she'll be back soon."

The little girl wanted to tell a little lie, but accidentally told the truth that her mother was not at home.After realizing that she couldn't tell strangers that there was no adult at home, she stressed angrily that her mother would be home soon.

Seeing the cute little girl flustered, Tang Jingsheng took out a bag of chocolates from her backpack and handed it over with a smile.

"Here, Auntie treats you to chocolate."

But the little girl tried her best to shake her head, although her eyes were fixed on the chocolate and she was reluctant to move away.

Tang Jingsheng took the initiative to stuff the chocolate into the child's hand, and explained: "Auntie and uncle want to walk around the island, this piece of chocolate is a gift, so you can rest assured."

"By the way, why are you washing clothes at the door alone, where is your father?"

The little girl replied sadly, "My father has gone out to work, and my mother said that he will come back after a long, long time. I have always washed these clothes, because my mother has no time to do it."

Tang Jingsheng felt that this little girl was very well-behaved and could bear hardships and stand hard work, so she couldn't help but feel a little distressed.

Lan Gaodan said: "The residents who stay here are basically because they have no money to move to live on land, so they can only continue to live on the island to live a hard life."

"With all due respect, the child's father, I'm afraid it is"

Tang Jingsheng nodded knowingly, but she didn't want the child to hear the truth, so she just smiled lightly, praising the child for being very capable and the clothes were clean.

After talking for a while, the little girl became familiar with Tang Jingsheng.

She invited the two to sit at home, but there was an inquiry from outside the door.

"You two are from outside, what's the matter?"

A hunched silver-haired grandma appeared in front of Tang Jingsheng and the others, who seemed to be the neighbor next door.

Tang Jingsheng replied: "Grandma, hello, we are here to find a kind of sea crab, I heard it tastes very delicious."

"Oh, you young people really like to toss around. If you want to eat crabs, you can go to a restaurant. It's worth traveling all the way here."

"The child's mother has gone out, and there is no one at home. If you don't mind, come and sit at my house, and I'll make you some tea."

Unexpectedly, this old lady, although there is no smile on her face, is quite enthusiastic.
