After transmigrating into the body of the female supporting character's biological mother, she

At dawn, the sky was just beginning to peek through the gray-blue hue, and the night had not yet completely faded.

The man standing at the bow of the boat wore a faded shirt and had a deep tan skin from being exposed to the wind and sun.

After a long night at sea, Yan Yuan's eyes showed a faint blue weariness, but his back remained straight, showing no sign of weakness.

The hold was brimming with the catch.

Yan Yuan did a rough calculation.

This trip was quite lucky; I caught a few large yellow croakers and white pomfret, as well as quite a few large shrimp. These items fetch a good price, so I can make a considerable profit. I also got some miscellaneous fish as a bonus, which will cover the cost of fuel.

There were already quite a few people on the dock.

They were all wholesalers from out of town, from inland counties or big cities. They brought their own bamboo baskets and crushed ice, and rode their old bicycles to take a boat to the island.

They offered a higher price than the state-run aquatic products station. As soon as Yan Yuan unloaded the catch from the boat, fishmongers came over to ask about the price.

"Prawns are 2.5 yuan, yellow croaker is 2.2 yuan, and pomfret is 0.9 yuan."

"Too expensive, less please."

Yan Yuan frowned. "This is the price. If you want it, I'll give you these miscellaneous fish for one cent per pound."

"Less."

Seeing this, Yan Yuan waved his hand and walked directly to the shore with the fish.

"Okay, okay," the fishmonger said hastily, "that's the price, but you have to help me carry it onto the boat."

"Can."

When he got home, his clothes were soaked with sweat.

Yan Yuan opened the door, habitually took off his shirt, and casually draped it over the back of the chair.

Having spent most of his life making a living at sea, he had no extra flesh on his body.

He had broad shoulders and back, firm and well-defined muscles, a narrow waist and abdomen, and his V-line slanted into his waistband. Fine beads of sweat clung to his tanned skin.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and was about to walk towards the kitchen when he caught a glimpse of a person lying on a bamboo bed on the north side of the main room.

She was a woman, or rather, a girl.

She wore a faded polyester short-sleeved shirt and worn-out work pants. Although it was an extremely ordinary and even somewhat rustic outfit, it was impossible to look away for a moment.

She was fast asleep, her face slightly turned inward, her nose delicate and straight, her thick eyelashes casting a small shadow under her eyes, and her black hair spread out on the bamboo mat like a piece of satin.

Yan Yuan only attended junior high school, so he couldn't find any words to describe her beauty.

Or rather, no matter how eloquent the language, it all seems inadequate in her presence.

He stood frozen in place, his mind blank for two seconds.

Suddenly, he remembered that Jiang Chengzhou had told him a few days ago that he was going to bring his sister over to stay for a few days, and then move out after finding a place to live.

So this is Chengzhou's younger sister.

No wonder, if I had a sister like that, I would definitely cherish her dearly.

Yan Yuan had seen Jiang Chengzhou's sister a few times before, but he only remembered that her bangs were very long, almost completely covering her eyes, so that others could not see her specific features.

Moreover, he always keeps his head down, chin tucked into his chest, and never looks up to make eye contact with anyone. He also always avoids eye contact when he sees strangers.

No one expected that such a stunningly beautiful face was hidden beneath those thick bangs.

A deep look appeared in Yan Yuan's eyes. He put on his clothes and left.

It's just dawn, and the courtyard is quiet.

Yan Yuan scooped up a ladle of water from the well and splashed it on his face to cool off.

He sat directly on the stone in front of the door, holding a shuttle in his hand, mending the fishing net that had been torn by the struggling fish the night before.

Not long after, Jiang Chengzhou walked in carrying several oil paper packages. As soon as he entered, he saw Yan Yuan mending nets in the yard.

"You're back? So early today?"

"Yeah," Yan Yuan looked up, "the internet connection is broken, so come back early."

Jiang Chengzhou peeked into the house. "You saw my sister?"

Yan Yuan nodded slightly. "She's been sleeping the whole time."

Jiang Chengzhou cursed under his breath and handed over the oil paper package, "This is breakfast I bought for you. You eat first, let her sleep a little longer."

Yan Yuan accepted it and thanked him.

He finished the steamed bun in a few bites, crumpled the oil paper into a ball, and threw it into the stove. "What's wrong with your sister?"

Jiang Chengzhou gets angry just thinking about it. "My sister got into a vocational school, but the family that adopted her won't let her go to school and even tore up her admission notice."

"That idiot didn't tell me, but thankfully she's not completely stupid. This time, when she heard someone was going to introduce her to some random guy on a blind date, she actually came looking for me."

Yan Yuan's eyes flickered. "So, what are your plans for the future?"

"With her by my side, I can easily support a little girl like her. I'll arrange for her to attend night school so she can continue her education!"

Jiang Chengzhou patted him on the shoulder, "Thanks, bro. I'll find a place to move out in a few days."

Yan Yuan frowned, pried his hands off, and asked, "Is this really your sister?"

Jiang Chengzhou nodded, "It's absolutely true. Although we're not related by blood, she's the same as my biological sister in my heart."

Jiang Chengzhou was brought to the island by his uncle.

Later, his uncle went on a business trip for half a year and brought back a little girl, saying she was his sister.

Neither the man nor the woman knew how to take care of a child. It was only with the help of Grandma Lotus and Aunt Chunhua next door that the two men managed to raise the girl, albeit with some difficulty.

Linlin was beautiful from a young age and would call her father and brother in a soft voice, bringing a lot of joy to the family that consisted of only the uncle and niece.

later……

Su Lang was wounded and died while at sea.

Only Jiang Chengzhou and Linlin remained at home.

The army, of course, wouldn't let the two children live like that, and wanted to send them back to the capital.

But the capital city is also in a mess.

Xu Yueyun suffered from heart disease. Upon learning of her youngest son's sacrifice, she immediately fell into a coma and lost consciousness. She was rescued for a day but passed away.

After losing his youngest son, Su Bingcheng also lost his wife who had been with him all his life. Overwhelmed with grief, he fell ill and never recovered.

The eldest uncle and aunt were only concerned with dividing the family inheritance. Even before Su Bingcheng died, they repeatedly urged him to make arrangements for his affairs after his death.

Su Bingcheng was disheartened and probably didn't have much time left.

Unable to contact Su Jue, and with both children and elderly relatives to care for, Deng Jing still made the trip to the island.

She wanted to bring the two children back to the capital; Xiao Lang was gone, and the children needed someone to take care of them.

Jiang Jinzhu also came.

They wanted to bring Jiang Chengzhou back.

Jiang Chengzhou didn't want to go back to the Jiang family, but he wasn't close to Deng Jing either. Besides, Deng Jing was already struggling to take care of herself, so how could she take care of two more children?

The military also offered its opinions.

If they don't return to the capital, then the military will take care of them.

Linlin was still young and naive at the time, and all she knew was to hold onto her brother's clothes.

After thinking for a moment, Jiang Chengzhou made up his mind, "We'll stay in the army and not go to the capital."

Jiang Jinzhu and Deng Jing couldn't do anything about him, and they couldn't stay on the island indefinitely, so they left them some money and returned to the capital.

Later, Zhou Jianjun was transferred to an island.

They claimed to be Linlin's so-called uncle and wanted to adopt her.

Jiang Chengzhou certainly disagreed at the time.
