Chapter 264: The Little Child is Happy Zhang is Speechless

"It's okay, this fish looks quite old." Tan Yanlin was just surprised, not panicked, and reacted quickly.

After he said that, he was about to pick up the golden bead, but Yu Hongdou got there first.

"It's not gold. It looks like it's made of the same material as the previous thing." Yu Hongdou picked up the golden bead through her handkerchief, looked at it against the light, and said with certainty.

The fact that they bought a gold object by the river was not a secret at all, but the villagers did not want the people of Taoxi Village to get a bargain, so they kept it secret for the time being.

"It won't be long before the river becomes bustling." Tan Yanlin looked at the water and felt a little worried. He was afraid that people would be greedy and casualties would be inevitable.

"My brother has already explained it to the village chief and Brother Suozi, and will ask them to be more careful." Yu Hongdou gave a thumbs up to her brother.

Pan Bao and Peng Qi didn't understand the meaning of their words. They looked at each other and said nothing. They just pointed at the golden carp on the ground and asked, "What should we do with this fish?"

Yu Hongdou was reminded and quickly said "sin", picked up the fish and put it in the bucket first.

"I don't know if it can still survive. Let's take it home and raise it first. If it is alive, put it in the pond in the farm." No matter what, Yu Hongdou didn't want this auspicious-looking fish to die.

After this incident, they lost interest in fishing, but it was still early, so they sat by the river and chatted.

When talking about Zhang Laosan's ancestors, the Tanka people, Tan Yanlin, who had never seen them in person, talked about them attentively.

"The Tanka people are said to be descendants of the Baiyue people. They have their own language and culture. They worship Mazu, who is said to be the protector of the sea..."

Tan Yanlin looked up a lot of information for this voyage. The more he looked, the more mysterious he felt the vast ocean was. The traditions of the villagers living along the coast were also mostly mythological.

Pan Bao and Peng Qi have never left the county, and the books they have read are not as many as those of Tan Yanlin, who has a profound family background and is under the guidance of famous teachers.

At this time, they were filled with longing. These things not only broadened their horizons, but also accumulated knowledge that they might use in the future.

"As the saying goes: You never stop learning. I thought I had studied hard for more than ten years and would be successful after passing the imperial examination. But the more I took the exam, the more I felt like a frog in a well. What I heard and saw were just grains of rice."

Peng Qi sighed seriously for a rare moment. His family was wealthy, and although there were many intrigues among the various branches, his ancestors had left behind a family motto that as long as his descendants studied hard and practiced martial arts, and sought fame and fortune, there would be rewards.

It just so happened that Peng Qi could be considered the best scholar of his generation in the family. It was enough to make people envious of him. Just based on his current title of juren, even if he failed to pass the imperial examination in the future, the rewards given by the clan would be enough for him to have no worries about food and clothing for three generations.

If Yu Hongdou knew about this, she would definitely be extremely jealous, and then curse inwardly, saying that thieves really make money quickly.

"My senior brother said that we should read more about these local records in our daily life. Otherwise, when we go to the local places in the future, we will be at a disadvantage because we don't know anything about them." Tan Yanlin reminded the two scholars in a concise manner.

It’s hard to talk about other things, after all, he is still just a scholar.

Yu Hongdou was listening to their gossip while clearing her mind.

I wondered if my brother and Tan Langxu would be in danger on their return trip. Then I wondered if my father had successfully found the body.

While I was daydreaming, the sun was setting and Xu sent someone to look for me.

The Air Force Queen turned into the Fishing Empress overnight. Yu Hongdou puffed out her chest and belly, and acted like a victorious general, making everyone who saw her laugh.

The only exception was Zhang, who took her son out to play after dinner.

Five years ago, Zhang was devastated when her daughter Yu Yinxing eloped with Ma Laizi.

Naturally, she didn't believe it. Zhang thought she knew her children very well. She thought her son turned against her because of a woman, which was only because Liu was angry and the third wife forced him to do so.

Unlike her daughter, Ginkgo is her confidant. She tells Ginkgo about many things at home that are difficult to discuss with her husband and son, and Ginkgo can give her advice most of the time.

Although Ginkgo made a stupid move later and was seen through by the Third Wife, Zhang believed that Ginkgo would rather stab herself twice more to apologize to the Third Wife than elope with Ma Laizi.

Unless Ginkgo really has no other options!

Even if she really eloped with Ma Laizi, it is impossible that she had no news for all these years. Zhang even thought that Ginkgo might have been killed by the third wife.

Otherwise, no matter whether rich or poor, Ginkgo would definitely send a message to her as a mother.

Originally, Zhang wanted to force the third and fourth wives to help her find Ginkgo, and if they couldn't find it, she would fight them to the death. But even she herself did not expect that she, who thought she had been infertile for a long time, would get pregnant again.

The signs of this pregnancy reminded Zhang of her youngest son who died young. She felt that this was God’s compensation to her.

In order to prevent any accidents from happening to her younger son who was about to arrive again, Zhang told herself that she had to endure it.

The third wife's fortune is strong, so she has to be patient and wait for her to fall from a high place. Then she will see how she will deal with them!

Then she saw the third branch rising step by step, Yu Laosan became a county lieutenant, Yu Song even passed the imperial examination, and the annoying Yu Hongdou started a big business.

Out of jealousy and envy, Zhang took even better care of her youngest son. She thought that her youngest son's physique was similar to Yu Hongdou's when he was a child. Even if he was not as good at studying as Yu Song in the future, it would be good for him to be a big businessman like Yu Hongdou.

After five years, the eldest son's brothers became enemies, his father disliked his mother, the eldest son became alienated from his mother, and he refused to allow her to remarry. The youngest son cried all the time and was often sick. Life gradually smoothed out Zhang's hatred and arrogance.

But when she saw Yu Hongdou again, that noble face that people would remember once they saw it, Zhang's hatred came over her again.

It was because of these nobles from the capital that Ginkgo was resentful and made him make several stupid moves in succession, which ultimately got him into trouble!

Zhang's eyes turned red, and she wanted to rush over and bite Yu Hongdou to death, but the little son in her arms shouted happily: "Third sister!"

Zhang was stunned for a moment, and Yu Hongdou was also stunned. They both looked at Yu Xiang, who looked like a little kid.

"You are the third sister. I recognize you. Grandpa taught me!" Yu Xiang's small face was a little pale. Even though she was born full-term, her health was still not very good.

At this moment, the innocence on the child's face made Zhang, the mother, and Yu Hongdou, who had a rift with the first wife, temporarily put aside their prejudices.

"Yes, I'm the third sister, and you're Acorn, right?" Yu Hongdou came back to her senses and greeted her only little cousin with a smile.

"Yes, I'm Xiangzi, third sister, you're pretty!" Yu Hongdou was a little far away from him, so Yu Xiang broke away from his mother and moved closer to his cousin.

"So good! Come here, Third Sister will give you some fun." Facing such an innocent child, Yu Hongdou, who was always tough even when facing a little pear-shaped face, felt a rare pity for him.

She reached her left hand into her right arm and began to dig.

Tan Yanlin, who was watching her movements beside her, frowned. Thinking of Yu Sanlang's previous performance, he took a step forward decisively and half-sideways stood in front of Yu Hongdou.
