Reborn in the Millennium: Building a Fortune from Fishing

Chapter 55: Talking about Family
"Grandma, I'm Dahe."

In the dim room, grandma was warming herself by the fire in the kitchen. Now that the weather was getting colder, she felt a little unbearable.

"The door is unlocked, come in."

When they got into the house, Qin Dahe took out three hundred yuan and asked his grandmother to keep it.

"Grandma, are you cold?"

"A little bit, but I don't know if I can make it through this year." Grandma said with an open mind.

Her grandson is already so grown up, she can feel at ease when he leaves. If she continues to live, she will really become a burden.

Qin Dahe sighed when he heard this and took out the cigarette and handed it to his grandmother.

"Hey, Daha, just help me take care of Silly Kid. You don't have to bring anything for me." Grandma looked at the things in his hand with some displeasure.

"When I was little and playing with the silly kid, I often came here to wash off my mud. What's wrong with giving him two packs of cigarettes now? These are for the kid, it's none of your business. Hey!"

At that time, everyone in the village was busy making money to live a comfortable life, and no one cared about the little ones running around outside. By the evening, they were almost covered in mud.

People like Erhu who can withstand the beating can go home directly, but the other three have to come over and wash themselves.

Although they would still be beaten if their clothes were wet, it was better than being covered in mud. Grandma was afraid that they would catch a cold, so she would use a dry towel to wipe their bodies.

"How much can you get from the trap now?" He changed the subject and did not dwell on the issues of birth, old age, sickness and death.

"Yes, he is very hardworking. No matter how busy he is during the day, he will make some at night." The grandmother's face looked much better when she talked about her grandson.

"I caught a lot of big crucian carp yesterday. I sold them at the village entrance for 25 yuan." Grandma's face was full of smiles: "The kids can also catch fish."

"Light up a cigarette, let's chat for a while." Qin Dahe helped his grandmother light the cigarette, and the two of them chatted together in the kitchen filled with the smell of smoke.

On the other side, in the home of a carpenter.

"Yan Yan, Dahe is a good guy. Not only is he a college student, but he can also earn money steadily." The old carpenter was discussing marriage with his daughter.

After his daughter returned home this year, several groups of people came to propose marriage, but he rejected them all, saying that they were either too far away or his family had a bad reputation.

He didn't want his daughter to marry in town or even further away. The old couple only had one daughter, and they had to rely on her and her husband for support in their old age.

"I won't marry anyone, except Qin Dahe." Yanyan said stubbornly.

She knew what her father was thinking, but after hearing what the three brothers said last night, she was completely furious.

The more educated you are, the more trouble you have. He even looks down on a college dropout.

"His family has the best conditions around here. Even though they don't have a house, they have three strong laborers and a big tricycle. It's not easy to make money."

"I have my own salary and don't need anyone to support me."

The old couple glared at their daughter with dark faces. If they had known, they would not have let her read so many books.

"So when you were little, you helped him carry my inkwell and wood?"

A beautiful girl: "."

At that time, she played with Qin Dahe every day, so it was normal for her to give this to others. It has been more than ten years.

"Dad, how about waiting for another two years?"

"Bullshit, you're already this old, and there are probably a lot of people who care about you. If you don't get married, what will happen if something happens?"

Fortunately, his daughter's route home is the county road, which is busy and safe for her to get home from get off work at night. Otherwise, she would never be allowed to go to work outside. He now wants to find a reliable man for his daughter to marry near the village. He has savings, and with a son-in-law to support him in his later years, he will be comfortable.

When you want your children to support you in your old age, it’s not about the money, but about having younger generations around so that no one will bully you when you are old.

"Dad, then tell me how many there are, and I'll choose carefully." She was confident that she would definitely be the one to choose someone else.

"Besides Qin Dahe and the other four, there's also Xiao Xiang from Xu Village. But that guy who's holding things in his mouth isn't a good guy. He's been stealing since he was a kid." After a pause, the old carpenter spoke again, "There's also Qin San's son, but he said he'll be back by the end of the year. I don't know what his situation is like out there."

Yanyan was in a dilemma when she heard that. She definitely wouldn't consider the silly kid, and neither would Xiao Xiang. When he was a kid, he came to her house to steal a saw, and she and Qin Dahe had beaten him up together.

As for the son of the Qin family, she didn't know him and had never met him. At present, the only people who knew him well were the four friends she had played with since childhood.

Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth and said, "Dad, you ask the Third Master's family, but I want to see someone in advance."

"What's the point of looking at it? Just choose from the three of Qin Dahe. The Qin San old couple are not in good health. Are you going to be their nanny for the rest of your life?" He is the best carpenter around and knows a little bit about everything.

Qin San made money by contracting the big lake, but the old couple had to go to the town every month to get medicine. If something happened there, their family would be doomed.

Besides, no one knows how his son is doing now, and no one outside knows about him.

These are basically the only unmarried men of marriageable age around the village, and he started asking around since the beginning of the year.

"Let me think about it." Yanyan returned to her room irritably and covered the man with the quilt.

She is now a formal employee of the grain station. She came here for an internship this summer after passing an exam and her salary is more than 300 yuan.

The grain station in the town is close to the gate, and it only takes about ten minutes to ride home.

With such conditions, naturally many people were interested and wanted to marry her home.

But this year, with Qin Dahe's return, the old man suddenly became anxious, and she could see what he was thinking at a glance.

As for her feelings towards Qin Dahe, she actually had no aversion to him. He had been like an older brother to them since they were young, taking them out to play, and they had a pretty close relationship.

But what she said last night was so infuriating that she would never agree at this moment no matter what she said.

What she didn't know was that not only was Qin Dahe a money-making individual, but the Qin family was also a prominent local family, and his parents were capable, so someone was actually eyeing such a good candidate for the man.

My mother went to bed early today, and Qin Dahe went out again, leaving only the old man at the door helping them with the thread assembly.

A five-meter 22 main line also needs to be made, in case the four of them catch a big fish when fishing in the grass nest, they will have to change the line.

"Qin Da, you're at home." The owner of Limin Supermarket came to visit suddenly.

"Come in and sit with me. I'm tying fishing line for the kid at home." Father Qin put down the work in his hands, took out a cigarette and gave it to the other party.

"Hey, Daha is successful now. He must be making a lot of money." The supermarket owner said enviously.

He could catch hundreds of kilograms of silver carp and bighead carp every day, and the whole village started to spread the word that his family was going to get rich.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the supermarket owner finally stated his intention.

"You know my niece Xiaoxue, she's a real beauty, and my brother is quite capable. Her mother asked me to come and ask if your family is interested, so we can get them in touch later."

　The second round of recommendations has begun. Please read more on Tuesday and Wednesday. Thank you all. I beg you all.
