A stunning mermaid dressed in the 1980s, the whole family lined up to pamper her endlessly.

Chapter 1 I've Transmigrated into a Baby
"Don't blame me. Blame yourself for being born into that bitch's womb. Now you might as well die and be reincarnated sooner."

In a daze, Yun Jiao heard a woman say something, and then she felt a sense of weightlessness.

"Pfft..."

In an instant, she was enveloped by seawater.

Yun Jiao subconsciously tugged at her hand and tail, but she quickly realized that her tail seemed to be... gone.

In the darkness, anyone coming this way would surely exclaim in surprise that what had been thrown into the sea was actually a baby.

If it were a normal child, they would drown very quickly if they were submerged in the sea.

But at this moment, the baby was infused with the soul of a merman from the deep sea of ​​another world.

The seawater posed no harm to her; on the contrary, she felt a sense of comfort and did not feel uncomfortable even though the seawater washed over her face.

After an unknown amount of time, Yun Jiao wearily closed her eyes, her small body drifting with the waves.

The fish in the sea noticed her unusual appearance and curiously approached to take a look, but none of them harmed her; instead, they circled around her.

Suddenly, a huge sea turtle swam over.

The sea turtle circled the sleeping baby twice, then decisively picked up her little clothes and swam away in a certain direction.

early morning……

As dawn broke, the sky was still somewhat dark, but even a sliver of light was enough to make out the situation on the beach.

In 1980, resources were still scarce, especially for small fishing villages by the sea. So, to fill their stomachs, they had to go to the beach every day to find food. If they were lucky, they might find some valuable seafood to sell and earn some extra income for their families.

As soon as the tide receded, the villagers, having timed it perfectly, sleepily headed to the beach with their buckets to gather seafood.

Seeing that there were more and more people, Yun Xiaowu headed towards a more remote area.

Hey... he has a secret base where he always manages to find something good, and nobody else has discovered it except for himself.

"Hey, a big shipment!"

Seeing something moving on the rocky beach in the distance, Yun Xiaowu ran towards it.

But when I got closer, I was startled.

It was a giant sea turtle!

"Wow, what a huge sea turtle!"

The light in his eyes disappeared.

I thought it was going to be some big fish, but it turned out to be a sea turtle!

He'd be happy to find turtle eggs, but they just happened to be turtle eggs.

According to their custom, a sea turtle is equivalent to the Dragon King's turtle prime minister, and catching and eating it will bring bad luck.

People who live by the sea are very superstitious.

Yun Xiaowu walked over and patted the sea turtle's shell: "Prime Minister Turtle, why did you come up here? Go back to the sea quickly."

The sea turtle shifted its somewhat clumsy body, turned its head, picked up something, and brought it to Yun Xiaowu's feet.

Yun Xiaowu looked down and then a sharp explosion erupted.

It's a doll! It's a doll!
Yun Xiaowu turned pale with fright, thinking the baby was dead.

The sea turtle looked at him like he was an idiot.

He carried the still-sleeping Yun Jiao and moved closer to him again.

Yun Xiaowu snapped out of his daze and began to read carefully, his hands trembling.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that although the baby's clothes were wet, his complexion was rosy and he was still breathing.

He quickly picked up the baby, while the sea turtle, as if it had completed some task, tossed the child to him and crawled into the sea.

Yun Xiaowu was visibly flustered: "No, Prime Minister Turtle, please wait!"

It's no use, the Turtle Prime Minister has already disappeared into the sea.

Yun Xiaowu: …………

What to do? I came out and found a baby.

Torn between his thoughts, he couldn't just leave the child there, so he carefully carried the baby in his arms and ran home.

Look closely, this child is really good-looking.

"What did you say? What did you bring back?!"

Early in the morning, a roar came from the Yunmu family.

Yun Jiao slowly woke up amidst the roar.

She opened her eyes and unconsciously made humming sounds.

Instantly, everyone's eyes in the dilapidated house focused on the baby that Yun Xiaowu was holding.

Yun Jiao moved her hands and feet, feeling as if she were bound by something. Her little face scrunched up, and she tried to struggle fiercely.

But after trying for a long time to no avail, Yun Jiao got a little angry, and the sounds she made turned into childish "ah ah" sounds.

Yun Jiao: ? ? ?
Yun Jiao: !!!
What has she become?!

"Quickly change this child into some dry clothes."

The Yun family all sprang into action, and Yun Xiaowu's mother exclaimed in surprise as she changed the baby's clothes.

"Father, Mother, it's a baby girl!"

Yun Jiao opened her eyes wide and stared at the person who had come close to her. What was that?
The sight of the little girl excited all the men in the room.

"Everyone move aside, let this old woman take a look."

Grandma Yun pushed her son aside, looked down, and then her face lit up with joy.

"It's a little girl, and such a pretty little girl at that. Her little arms and legs are so white and segmented. Oh my, how come her big eyes look so lively? Her little face is pretty too, so pretty, almost like a little attendant of a deity."

Several heads crowded around to see what was so interesting.

Everyone chimed in, "She's so pretty! Is she really a little girl?"

"Xiao Wu, where did you find this?"

"Dad, why don't we take care of her?"

Seeing that everyone liked the chubby little baby, Yun Xiaowu immediately straightened his back and felt no longer guilty.

He said mysteriously, "You probably won't believe it, but this doll was given to me by the Dragon King."

He had barely finished speaking when his father smacked him on the forehead.

"Speak normally, or I'll beat you to death!"

Yun Xiaowu jumped up and down: "I'm telling the truth. Although I didn't see the Dragon King, I did see the Turtle Prime Minister. He was such a big sea turtle. This baby was given to me by that sea turtle."

Seeing that he didn't seem to be lying, the Yun family was shocked.

Old Man Yun took two puffs of his pipe.

"I'll go ask the village chief if anyone in the nearby fishing villages has lost a child. If not..."

Looking at the fair-skinned little girl, he made up his mind: "Then we'll raise her!"

No wonder they were all so surprised; it's just that... their family is experiencing a decline in yin energy.

The family has more than a dozen members, but only three of the elders are women, while the younger generation are all boys.

Nine children, all boys.

Others envy them for having so many boys, but only the family members know how hard it is to raise so many boys and feed so many mouths.

As a result, their family is now the poorest in the entire Bailong Village.

It wasn't that Grandpa Yun and his family wanted to have children, but in this era, especially in the countryside, there were few contraceptive methods. If someone got pregnant, they couldn't bear to have an abortion, so they had no choice but to give birth.

After giving birth to Xiao Jiu, they learned that women could get IUDs inserted. The two women in the family went without hesitation, thinking that if they had any more children, they would starve.

"We really have to raise another child, but how can we afford to raise another one given our family's situation?"

Another woman's voice rang out.

Upon hearing this, Yun Xiaowu hugged Yun Jiao, who was still in swaddling clothes, as if she were protecting her own child.

“My uncle and aunt don’t raise her, but our family does. She’s someone I picked up; she’s my little sister.”

Aunt Yun put her hands on her hips and said, "You brat, do you think raising a child is as easy as raising a kitten or puppy? She's still so small, she definitely needs milk. Where are we going to find milk?"

"Then I'll take my little sister to borrow milk."
