Lin Chang'er pouted, "Headmaster, when did you become so stingy? It's not easy for the fishermen to pull up such a big fish. The internal organs are unavoidable, and the swim bladder is actually a good thing. We really can't just throw away this money like this..."
Before she could finish speaking, Headmaster Chen was already glaring at her with the look of someone who had been taken advantage of.
Lin Chang'er rubbed her ears and surrendered, "Okay, okay! You're right."
But she still secretly gave Wu Qingfeng a look, prompting him to buy it secretly.
Linshui Village doesn't have any fishing boats, so it's difficult to obtain many types of fish.
In her later life, Lin Chang'er had a roommate who lived by the sea. The roommate once made her a dish of braised ribbonfish in fermented rice wine, which left a deep impression on her.
She had been craving it for a long time after arriving here.
But I was always busy making money, and I forgot about it as I made money.
The wharf in Su County is large, and fishing boats come and go frequently.
Many seafood products are distributed directly after being unloaded from fishing boats, and many come from the deep sea.
Lin Chang'er had eaten good food in her later life, so she wasn't particularly greedy.
But seeing the ribbonfish still made me a little excited. "Ribbonfish, ribbonfish, ribbonfish, wow wow wow, four fingers wide, four fingers wide, I want this, I want this, Wu Qingfeng, Wu Qingfeng, come quickly, come quickly."
Wu Qingfeng carried Yudian over and asked her with a smile, "How many do you want?"
Lin Chang'er pondered for a moment. Right now, she had a double-door space where frozen ribbonfish could be stored for a long time.
She pointed to the whole basket of ribbonfish, "Are they all the same size?"
She had seen plenty of cases of unscrupulous merchants in her later life, where the higher-ups would offer superior quality goods while the lower-ups would sell inferior ones.
The fisherman nodded hurriedly, "I've been selling fish at this dock for decades. I'm honest and fair, and they're all the same size. If you're not sure, you can check them yourself."
Lin Chang'er didn't stand on ceremony with her and immediately checked the basket of ribbonfish with Sister-in-law Gu and Sister-in-law Gu to make sure that the ribbonfish were basically the same size, and even if there were a few smaller ones, they were no more than half a finger's width.
Lin Chang'er waved her hand and said to Wu Qingfeng, "I'll take this whole basket."
Wu Qingfeng asked the price, paid the silver, and asked the old man to help carry it to the carriage.
Headmaster Chen then expressed his dissatisfaction again, "We all live by the sea, but you've never seen seafood before. It smells so strong! I'm not taking the carriage for a while!"
Lin Chang'er: "..." What's wrong with this old man? Why is he so picky about everything and acting all dramatic for no reason?
Could it be that, like her, someone possessed her soul last night?
But looking at his appearance, it doesn't seem like it.
Lin Chang'er secretly exchanged a glance with Sister-in-law Gu, shrugged helplessly, and planned to find some time to have a good talk with him when she got back, so as not to make the old man sick from holding it in.
After buying the ribbonfish, Lin Chang'er also bought prawns, squid, razor clams, and some deep-sea fish. The prawns here were also bigger and fatter than those in Linshui Village, so Lin Chang'er bought another half basket.
All in all, it added up to two large baskets. When they came out of the market, Chen Shanzhang was so dissatisfied that his mouth could hold an oil bottle.
When they reached the carriage, he actually started to throw a tantrum, saying, "This old man wants to walk around."
Lin Chang'er sat on the carriage shaft, "Really not going to ride in the carriage?"
Headmaster Chen snorted, put his hands behind his back, and strode off.
How could Lin Chang'er really let him walk alone!
Why did you drive the carriage to catch up with him? Once you were beside him, you slowed down the carriage. "Hey, what a coincidence, does Headmaster Chen need a ride?"
Chen Shanzhang cursed inwardly, "This brat is trying to make fun of me!"
With a cold face, she said, "I won't sit!"
Lin Chang'er then slowly drove the carriage alongside him.
At first, Chen Shanzhang didn't think much of it, but after walking for a while, he also got annoyed. "Lin Chang'er, are you deliberately making fun of this old man?"
Lin Chang'er: "..." This is a terrible injustice.
Without waiting for her to speak, Chen Shanzhang walked even faster, using almost all his strength.
The courtyard wasn't far from the market, but Chen Shanzhang, being quite old, slowed down after walking briskly for about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, and began to pant.
Lin Chang'er sighed and patted the empty space on the carriage shaft. "It's not smelly outside. Why don't you get in the carriage and sit for a while?"
Headmaster Chen turned and glared at her. He was indeed tired, but he couldn't admit it.
"You're the one who let me sit here."
Lin Chang'er nodded hurriedly, "It's me, it's me! I begged you to sit down, please get in the car quickly!" Ancestor, we're still waiting to go back and have a seafood feast!
Chen Shanzhang then craned his neck to get into the car, but instead of going into the carriage, he sat on the carriage shaft with Lin Chang'er.
The carriage started moving again. Seeing that Chen Shanzhang's complexion had improved, Lin Chang'er gently nudged his elbow and said, "Hey, we're so familiar with each other now, if you have something on your mind, just say it!"
"Let me tell you, if you keep it all inside, other people will just think, 'Why have you suddenly become so sentimental?'"
"In the end, you'll only suffer yourself. Think about it, if you speak out about something difficult, then everyone will suffer with you and feel the pain together!"
Besides, one person's plan is short-sighted, but three people's plans are long-sighted! Why lock yourself in a dead end?
Upon hearing her words, Headmaster Chen's expression relaxed somewhat, then he looked at Lin Chang'er warily again, "Have you heard something?"
Lin Chang'er shook her head hastily, "No, what could I possibly hear? Among all of us, I'm the one who goes to bed the earliest and gets up the latest. If you were to use my father's words, I'd be lucky to have gold falling from the sky."
After thinking about it carefully, Chen Shanzhang realized that it made sense. When Lin Beishan and his wife came to talk to him in the morning, Lin Chang'er hadn't gotten up yet.
However, the thought of the couple made him angry.
He had stayed in Linshui Village for so long and dealt with the Gu family for so long that he had finally become familiar with most of the villagers.
He hadn't even had a chance to mention it himself!
That bastard Lin Beishan, he's only known this girl for a few days!
They probably don't even know where this girl comes from.
They actually put the idea of becoming godparents on the agenda. Fine, you can become godparents, but what's the point of asking him to be the middleman?
He also wanted to adopt a goddaughter so that someone could inherit his courtyard full of books in the future!
What, is Lin Beishan some kind of special noble?
What's even more infuriating is that he reminded that bastard that Chang'er is capable and has her own opinions, and even if the Gu family agrees, she herself might not agree.
So, what did that bastard Lin Beishan say?
He said, "Just mention it to us, and Chang'er will definitely not refuse."
The tone of his voice and his expression made it seem as if he had already tested the girl beforehand.
He's quite old, and he accompanied her on this long journey, but she barely spoke to him more than a few times.
He actually has a very close personal relationship with a scoundrel he's only known for two or three days.
How could Headmaster Chen not be angry!
