Chapter 2: First Trip to the Sea

ribes him.""With his abilities, he probably cheated to get into college.""Old Qu, your Nana did the right thing. She should have ended this person's hopes long ago. If Nana married him, her life would...Watching Big Brother walk away with a smile on his face, Zhao Qin thought for a moment, it didn't seem like a particularly bad thing to stay here.

Back in the room, I started admiring the shovel again, discovering that it wasn't much different from an ordinary one.

Perhaps because I bought a shovel, the luck value on the system tablet changed to: 0 18, an increase of 13 points compared to before.

A man is a boy until he dies, who wouldn't like to play Though he's unfamiliar with catching seafood, he has plenty of passion! He just grabbed a bucket at random, a shovel in his right hand and the bucket in his left, ready to give it a try on the beach.

Just after going out a few steps, he ran back into the house. This body is only 22 years old, but it needs to be taken care of. Don't wait until you're thirty before someone starts calling you grandpa.

Back in the room, he changed into a long-sleeved shirt and pants, then found a straw hat. He wrapped a cloth around his entire face, tucking the ends into the hat so that only his eyes and nostrils were exposed.

After searching for a long time, I found a pair of yellowed work gloves and put them on. Unfortunately, there were no sunglasses missing, so I walked towards the beach with this thought in mind.

Everyone he met on the road looked at him with confusion, I guess his big brother wouldn't even recognize him now.

The people by the sea here, they make a living catching seafood. Men and women alike are tanned from the sun, nobody really cares about dressing up. His attire is not only eye-catching but also kind of scary, like a mummy who escaped from a pyramid.

When they got to the beach, they encountered several women collecting shellfish on a rocky shore. One of them looked up and suddenly saw him. She let out a loud shout that startled not only the other three women but also Zhao Qin himself.

"Mother, you scared me to death!"

Hearing the voice, Qu Shini cautiously asked: "Is this Little Er from Lao Zhao's family"

Zhao Qin pulled the cloth down a little, so she could see clearly.

"Mom, what's with this outfit"

"The skin is delicate and can't withstand the sun."

"Shouldn't you be sleeping at home What are you doing at the beach"

"Sleeping is boring, I'm going crabbing," Zhao Qin said, and then walked west, around a large rock, towards another patch of sea.

Zhao Qin didn't walk far, he knew these people were definitely going to discuss him.

"Ha ha ha, he actually went sea chasing like that He doesn't even check the tides! People go out during low tide, but he comes out when it's almost high tide!"

"Oh my, how can a man in his prime shamelessly boast about having delicate skin that can't handle the sun"

"Haha, there's a saying that goes, 'eating ** is not as good as being hot,' and it perfectly describes him."

"With his abilities, he probably cheated to get into college."

"Old Qu, your Nana did the right thing. She should have ended this person's hopes long ago. If Nana married him, her life would be ruined."

That's right, Qu Ying is Zhao Qins former fiancee’s mother-in-law.

“That won't do, nobody would look at him like that. Like father, like son, he's just like his father. Before, Huai Ping was still somewhat presentable, but now that she's dead, their family is finished.”

Huai Ping was Zhao Qin's mother. Hearing the other party mention her mother, and then bring up his own father, Zhao Qin felt a surge of anger, even though he wasn't the original Zhao Qin.

He emerged from behind the large stone, cleared his throat, and several women who saw him still there all smiled derisively.

"Aren't you going crabbing Go quickly, the tide is about to come in soon, and we also have to go home."

Even the thickest-skinned person would feel a little embarrassed if they were caught gossiping about someone and then confronted. After Qu Yinggang finished speaking, the others chimed in, saying that it was getting late and they should head back.

"Auntie, when I was betrothed to Yin Na, your family took a whole basket of rice from mine. Now that the betrothal is off, you have to return that rice to me."

Hearing him say that, Qu Ying was not embarrassed either, and sneered: "You'd better be ashamed to ask for that bag of rice. I'm saying you delayed my daughter Nana, and because of your previous relationship with her, you ruined her reputation."

"For heaven's sake, don't bring up arranged marriages again. Look in the mirror and have some self-awareness!"

Zhao Qin didn't get angry either, smiling faintly and saying, "You know why Yin Na said the betrothal was annulled Are you sure you won't return that bag of rice"

"What rice There's nothing like that at all."

Zhao Qin said to the other women: "I'll tell you something, actually Yin Na got into university and started fooling around with a boy in the woods. I just happened to..."

"Zhao Qin, you dare to ruin my daughter's reputation Believe me or not, I'll tear your mouth apart!"

Several other women's eyes lit up, what a juicy piece of gossip! They looked at Zhao Qin with encouragement, hoping he would continue.

"Well, forget it. It's pointless talking to all of you. I'll try to borrow a loudspeaker from the village committee. If Old Xing, the caretaker, refuses, I'll just beat him up."

Turning to the several women again, he said: "Don't worry, at six o'clock this evening, I will explain everything in detail. Let me tell you, I even snuck a peek, tsk tsk, the scene was..."

With a disapproving tsk-tsk, she made the three women beside her fidget nervously and almost sent Qiyin reeling.

"Zhao Qin, you... you... well, I'll return a bushel of rice to your family."

At the very latest, this evening, or else I'll go on air.

Zhao Qin watched the flustered Qu Ying, mimicking her earlier actions with a light sneer. He then circled around the large rock once more, this time truly departing.

"Old Qu, so it was Nana who did something wrong to the Zhao family"

"Yeah, if that's really the case, then Zhao Xiaer wouldn't be wrong either."

So, Nana made a new friend as soon as she started college, right What does she look like Bring her over sometime so we can see her!

"No, there's nothing to it at all! Zhao Qin is just making things up. You shouldn't believe him and you definitely shouldn't spread rumors." Qu Ying roared at the few people present,

The louder she cried, the more people believed her, their eyes filled with knowing amusement.

All the men were so moved that they cried, and they hurried home with their buckets.

On the other hand, Zhao Qin didn't take what just happened to heart at all. Instead, she was a little happy, having gained another bag of rice. Good things were coming her way.

Let those women say whatever they want about him being shameless and indecent. His reputation is already in tatters, so what difference does it make if it gets worse once more

And in a group, when the bad guys always have it better than the good guys, life is easier.

Sure enough, the tide was coming in. Though he didn't understand tides, it was clearly higher than before. All the beachcombers had disappeared, leaving him to have the whole beach to himself.

But it's useless, there's nothing here at all. Looking around, the beach is bare, not even as good as that rocky area before. You could still see shells clinging to the rocks there.

Actually, it's hard for someone who hasn't been to the sea to find marine goods. He was an inland kid in his previous life, and this body of his has only been to the sea a few times when he was four or five years old. By the time he was of school age, he became a good student, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to get into a national key university.

Since I've already come this far, I took a look at the empty bucket. If I go back and encounter those women, they'll probably laugh me to death.

He thought to himself, his trowel unconsciously digging into the wet sand. The waves occasionally splashed against his feet.

"Wow, this is a clam."

Originally, I didn't realize that unconsciously, I had already dug a hole in the sand before me, and from inside it, I unearthed a clam.nd cover my face at night. But the next moment, I thought of the mosquitoes that had just bothered me, and I shivered all over. I still wrapped myself up again.Threw two shovels into the bucket, carri...
