Xia Chuan's voice was filled with the coldness of winter. He sat down on the ground feebly, and in a moment he laughed and murmured in a low voice that only he could hear, "I thought there was something different about you."

In an instant, his cold hand was covered with a soft and warm little hand.

"Xia Chuan," Xin Yue looked at him and called his name seriously, "no matter how difficult the days are, they will pass. Don't dwell on the sufferings of the past. Look forward, become stronger, and protect yourself."

You are still young, you can definitely change your destiny and do what you want to do."

When she looked at him, her eyes were as calm and vicissitudes as ancient pools, as if she had contained too much unknown pain that she didn't want to and couldn't appeal to, and they were like a crystal clear river, flowing out long and thin in slow places.

The flowing beauty stretches far and wide, opening up a clear sky and earth.

I can’t remember how long it was. Natsukawa stayed in the Imperial Palace of Japan, drinking sake calmly, dreaming and waking up, always struggling with one question - when did it start?

Since when did she become the person he wanted to look forward to, embrace, and protect? When did she begin to walk into his heart and become an obsession that he would never let go of?

The wind is rustling and the sea water is slightly turbulent.

Xin Yue completely understood the reason why Xia Chuan insisted on sleeping with her - he had a strong fear and disgust towards men.

She held the boy's hand a little tighter, tilted her head and looked at his beautiful face: "Sleeping in the same room, we have three rules. First, you sleep on the floor and I sleep on the bed; second, you can't touch me.

No matter what the circumstances, you cannot do anything like what you just did to me; thirdly, you are not allowed to make any noise while resting at night. You must maintain a relatively quiet environment and do not disturb my sleep. If you violate one of these rules, you will not be able to deal with me in the future.

you."

——

At night, the crescent moon crescents.

Xia Chuan asked Xin Yue, who was sitting on the bed and not resting, "Why aren't you sleeping yet?"

"'Xia Chuan, let me ask you, you have achieved your goal of giving such valuable items to a little girl to let people take us in, but have you ever thought that showing off your wealth like this will make this family hate us?

Heart?"

Xia Chuan slept on the straw mat on the ground, pillowing his head with his hands and shaking his head with a smile: "No."

"Why?" She looked at him suspiciously, "You don't trust this family so much, do you?"

He hooked his fingers and lowered his voice: "Come closer and I'll explain it to you."

Xin Yue then got out of bed and sat on the floor.

He did not answer Xin Yue's question directly, but asked: "What would happen if you were them and found out that I am rich?"

"I know how to rob."

"If we rule out this possibility for the time being, we will default to treating this family as ordinary people with a reasonable conscience. What other possibilities are there?"

"As for ordinary people," Xin Yue thought for a moment, "after a while, if they find that you are penniless, they will kick us out."

A thin smile appeared on Xia Chuan's jade-white face: "How can we delay their expulsion of us?"

"You keep giving them money."

Xia Chuan spread his hands helplessly: "But I have no money anymore."

"Or, you must make them feel that it is very profitable to take you in. Even if you can't give them money, they will still provide you with food and drink." Xin Yue looked at him, and suddenly an idea flashed, "Sao Ga, I know

Already."

Xia Chuan smiled and listened to her opinion.

"You told them before that you fell into the sea while taking a boat with your father. On the one hand, you were trying to dispel their suspicion that you were being hunted, lest they think you were a nuisance and decide not to take you. On the other hand, you were misleading them.

, if you deliberately present yourself as a kid from a rich family, they will think that your father will come here sooner or later, creating a secret expectation that the rich family will repay the benefactor generously. "

"Pinpoen." He raised the corner of his mouth and said something in Japanese - the correct answer.

Xin Yue frowned: "Although this family is a little greedy for money, they are still quite honest and treat us well. You are seriously deceiving them."

"They will get benefits, I won't let them get nothing."

Xin Yue probed: "What's the benefit?"

Xia Chuan coughed: "Didn't someone say that if they recover from their illness, they can fish for half a year?" A smile gathered in his eyes and he looked at Xin Yue.

Xin Yue hit the young man on the shoulder: "You are a bit of a scoundrel."

A month later, Xin Yue's body had almost recovered. At that time, she was wearing a blue dress made of coarse cloth and was embarking on a fishing boat.

There were four people in the boat, Sister Zhang, Xingxing, Xin Yue, and Xia Chuan.

Fishing requires a lot of manpower. Brother Zhang does the fishing in the sea. Sister Zhang does it by harpooning fish in the nearby shallow water. The types of fish in the shallow sea are different from those in the deep sea.

, if the two parties catch fish and sell them in the market, they can better meet the needs of the people.

At first, Sister Zhang did not doubt that a delicate girl like Xin Yue was fishing. When she saw her picking up the harpoon, she whispered in her ear: "Look at the right spot before harpooning, and harpoon behind the fish you see."

Xin Yue certainly understands the principle of refraction of light. A fish swished past. She exerted force on her arm, neatly and accurately. She smiled slightly and threw the pierced fish into the fish basket. After a while, the fish basket was full.

.

"Sister, you are so powerful..." Minmin looked at Xin Yue's fast and powerful movements and couldn't help but exclaimed, "You are simply more powerful than my father!"

Xin Yue stopped what he was doing, sat on the boat, and said to the stunned child, "You can become so powerful."

"Sister, you teach me, you teach me!" Minmin suddenly jumped up, her eyes were crooked, and her bright smile was filled with urgency.

"You kid, do you want us to fall?" Sister Zhang scolded her as the boat bumped along with the kid's jumping.

Being scolded by her mother, Minmin stuck out her tongue and felt a little aggrieved. Then she quietly moved to Xin Yue's side, tugged on Xin Yue's sleeves, and said flatteringly: "Sister, please teach me, okay?

?”

The child's voice was as soft as a ball of marshmallow. Xin Yue inadvertently softened his voice: "You're not strong enough. When you get stronger, my sister will teach you."

"I'm very powerful..." Minmin pursed her lips, stretched out her slender little arms, bent her elbows, and squeezed out a small piece of flesh on her arms, frowning and trying to make a fierce expression, "

I'm very strong."

Seeing that Xin Yue still ignored her, Minmin stepped forward and asked: "Good sister, is there any way to make me as strong as you?"

Although Minmin was born in a slightly backward fishing village, due to her frail body and her mother's inability to have any more children, she was regarded as the apple of their parents' eyes as a frail only child. She did not do farm work like other children. Over time, she developed a habit and often failed to do so.

Exercise caused her body to become weaker and weaker, which made Brother Zhang and Sister Zhang very anxious but unable to do anything.

Xin Yue's eyes were indifferent, he looked at her with half-closed eyes, and said softly: "Sister, I can't tell you."
