Chapter 212 Holding it in
Wei Liu was very fast and reached Jiang Lan in an instant. "I've been in so much trouble along the way because of you! This time I will get rid of you completely and throw you on a deserted island. What can the King of Yan do to me!"
Wei Liu had already drawn the long sword hanging at his waist and slashed straight at Jiang Lan.
"Leave and go back to the cabin!" Chang Bo pushed Wei Li and Jiang Lan away. He then blocked Wei Liu's knife, "Uncle Wei, calm down!"
Wei Liu pulled a face and said, "If you don't want to be left behind, stay inside and don't come out."
"Uncle Wei, calm down! That's not what the prince meant." Changbo said this without confidence, and his voice was not as loud as usual.
"I apologize to you on behalf of the prince." Changbo bowed repeatedly and was about to say something nice when he was interrupted.
"Originally this ship belonged to me! We have a rule that all the gains belong to the ship owner. The current owner of the ship... is Miss Bai."
Yu Erniang looked around the crowd and pulled Bai Jingzhi to her side. "All the harvest from the sea this time belongs to Miss Bai. Only she can deal with these things."
On this ship, Yu Erniang has the most manpower, about forty young and strong sailors, which is far more than the number on Bai Jingzhi's side.
If Yu Er Niang had any other ideas, they would have no chance of winning because they would all be landlubbers.
With Yu Erniang stepping in, Jiang Lan stopped making trouble.
At this point, Wei Liu stopped Bai Jingzhi and the others from leaving, "Don't leave in a hurry, take advantage of these two days to catch more."
His voice was so low that no one else could hear it, except the three of them.
"Have you noticed? Today's is better than that day." Wei Liu leaned forward and said, staring at the family of three.
"When your family is together, your luck is incredibly good. You can't leave."
Bai Jingzhi smiled helplessly, "Sixth Grandpa, it's not that we are lucky. In this season, the warm and cold currents collide under the sea, and the alternation of cold and warm naturally brings up a lot of seafood."
Wei Liu's eyes widened and he was silent for a moment before he understood what she was saying.
"I don't understand what you're saying. You and your family just stay here today. You don't have to do anything. Just bring out a few stools and stay here."
Wei Liu refused to listen, and his family felt helpless.
No matter how beautiful the scenery is, if you look at it all day long, you will get tired of it one day.
"You keep these things, I'll go in and get the boxes." Wei Liu did not allow them to refuse, and turned around to get the wooden boxes to pack the pearls.
"I didn't fool you." Bai Jingzhi spread his hands, with helplessness on his face.
The ancients believed in metaphysics, so there was nothing she could do. Her previous attempt to fool people had no effect at all.
"Okay, it's just one day, let's wait here." Bai Zhao quickly stroked his daughter's fur, "Anyway, these things are yours, you can handle them as you see fit in the future."
Yu Erniang's words just now have dispelled other people's thoughts.
Old Mrs. Zhou was busy working, and had long coveted those pearls.
Her eyes glanced over there from time to time, and her actions did not escape the eyes of others.
"If we work hard, Jingzhi won't treat us unfairly, don't you think so, Meidong?"
Little Wang kept moving her hands and said a few words to Bai Meidong beside her, specifically for Old Lady Zhou to hear.
"Mom, take a rest if you are tired," Little Wang was about to help Old Lady Bai up, "Jingzhi is the most filial to you, and when I have jewelry, I will definitely need you."
Old Lady Bai blinked her eyes and said, "Don't think about it. Didn't you listen to what Miss Yu said? These things belong to the ship owner and my granddaughter."
Little Wang smiled awkwardly, "Ah, they are all hers. I don't have a daughter either, so I don't want anything from her."
Speaking of daughters, Old Lady Bai stood up with her arm and pulled her aside, "Do you want a daughter?"
Little Wang blushed and lowered her head, "Mom, please stop joking. Even if I want to do it in this remote place, the head of the family won't agree. Where does a young lady come from?"
Mrs. Bai didn't react for a moment, "What did you say?"
"That's right, there are people everywhere in the wilderness, how can I give birth to a daughter?"
"Bah! You think about these things all day long. You can't live without a man." Old Lady Bai slapped Xiao Wang. "I haven't seen any movement in your stomach for more than ten years. What do you think about all day long?"
Little Wang was scolded by her mother-in-law and felt aggrieved for no reason. "Where else would my daughter come from?"
She couldn't understand it either. It was clearly her mother-in-law who brought up her daughter's matter first, but in the end she got scolded.
Old Lady Bai straightened her expression and said, "Okay, let me ask you, what do you think of Yue'e? Tell me the truth."
"Yue'e? She's really good. She can marry either the eldest or the second oldest. But the eldest has a skill and can support the family in the future. If she marries in, we won't suffer any loss."
Little Wang glanced towards Zhou Yue'e and nodded repeatedly.
Along the way, Zhou Yue'e has been following Bai Jingzhi, being hardworking and protective.
If they promised it to the eldest son in her family, they would get a great deal.
Besides, Zhou Yue'e looks like my sister-in-law and is very pretty.
Old Lady Bai took a deep breath and pinched Little Wang, "You wish! Go find your own daughter-in-law yourself, don't set your sights on your own people."
Little Wang was completely confused about what the old lady meant. "Mom, what do you mean?"
"Can Yue'e be your daughter?" Old Mrs. Bai stared at little Wang with her small eyes, waiting for her to speak.
"Of course I am willing. Yue'e is so good, would the Zhou family let her go?" Little Wang's face was full of smiles.
"Aren't you afraid that Yue'e will bring bad luck to you?" Old Lady Bai breathed a sigh of relief, but pretended to be worried and tried to test her, "She has a bad fate. She will bring bad luck to her father, her family and her family."
"With you guys here, what am I afraid of? Besides, Yue'e is so capable. I wish she was my daughter."
Xiao Wang rolled her eyes and expressed her attitude directly.
She is not stupid. Zhou Yue'e is lucky to be with Bai Jingzhi.
This time it was Old Lady Bai who was worried, "Do you agree? Then let's talk about the adoption after we settle down?"
"I agree with all of them," said Xiao Wang, who was very cheerful. "I just want a daughter, but unfortunately I haven't been pregnant for more than ten years."
The original owner did not hear what the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law said, but Jiang Lan and Wei Li Changbo heard it.
"Ignorant woman!" Jiang Lan sneered, curled his lips and sat back.
"Sir, I advise you to hold back your anger. We cannot defeat them head-on."
Changbo didn't have so many concerns and gave a direct reminder.
"When is it your turn to give orders to this prince?" Jiang Lan lowered his eyebrows and glanced at Chang Bo, "You really think you are a dish! I thought your family was at its peak!"
After Jiang Lan finished speaking, he turned around and left.
Changbo stood where he was, veins bulging on his fists beneath his sleeves.
