He forced me to sever ties with my family and sleep on a dilapidated boat, then turned around and be

Chen Meifeng was also muttering to herself.

"Dad, Mom, if you hadn't raised him, would he have been able to go out to sea to fish and earn so much money? Even if we're no longer related, the money should still be ours, and we have to find a way to get it back."

Ma Chunhua said fiercely, "No wonder he wanted to sever ties with us! He knows he's going to make a lot of money and doesn't want to spend it on us! Lao Niu, your son is outrageous! We have to find a way to get all the money he earns!"

"He's so capable, he should be our servant for life!"

Niu Dazhuang snorted, his face dark and silent, but clearly, he was also thinking of something.

On the long embankment, after the people who had been watching the Niu family had left, He Zhenzhen looked tenderly at her future husband and said, "Bayi, you must be tired. Your old boat is no longer habitable. Come stay at my house."

"We still have empty rooms in our house, Dad! Mom! Right?"

He Rong and Zhang Xiuli hesitated slightly, but still nodded.

Niu Bayi shook his head: "Forget it, I can't stay at your house. Your parents have already accepted the betrothal gifts, so I'm your fiancé. If we do this, it'll be like I'm a live-in son-in-law, which isn't appropriate."

Niu Bayi also had a bit of pride.

He can't be a live-in son-in-law.

He Zhenzhen said dismissively, "What's the big deal? You don't have a home now anyway, so just treat my house as your home!"

The girls in the fishing village were quite straightforward and bold, which left her parents and brother somewhat amused and exasperated.

Niu Ba politely declined.

"Really, there's no need. I'm perfectly fine living in this dilapidated boat. Don't let its state of disrepair fool you; with a little tidying up, it can be habitable."

He already had further ideas.

Although the wrecked boat leaks wind and rain, it has been reinforced before, so it is habitable as long as there is no strong wind or rain.

If I work hard these days and go out to sea to fish more, with my current skills, I'll soon be able to save enough money to build a house.

So he added, "Next, I will work hard to earn money and build a big house as soon as possible, then we will get married."

He Zhenzhen blushed and gave a soft "hmm," but she was still somewhat sullen.

"But I can't bear to see you living in a dilapidated boat."

He Rong said, "Zhenzhen, don't force yourself to stay. As a man, I understand him. If he really comes to live at our house, there will inevitably be rumors that he is a live-in son-in-law, which would be shameful for any man."

"Listen to him!"

He Laifu also advised, "If you can make money in August, go fishing a few more times, and you'll have the money to build a house. You can't live in a shabby boat for very long anyway."

He Zhenzhen had no choice but to agree.

Zhang Xiuli thought of something and said, "Bayi, you've given the betrothal gifts, so we're engaged. We should have had a celebratory dinner at your house, but you've broken off the engagement. Come to our house tonight."

"I'll prepare a whole table of delicious food."

Niu Ba nodded and said okay, his face beaming with a smile.

He also knew that He Zhenzhen's parents and brother were actually not bad people.

The reason he didn't allow his daughter to associate with him was because he was sickly and half-dead, and would be a burden to others.

What parent in the world would want their daughter to marry someone like that?

But things are different now. Niu Bayi has fully recovered and can catch so many abalone on a trip to sea, earning several thousand yuan.

Then they had a major turning point.

Only by becoming stronger can one earn respect and obtain everything one desires!

It's almost dawn now.

The fishermen greeted Niu Bayi in twos and threes, and then went home to rest.

When they greeted Niu Bayi, their tone revealed a certain respect.

In their eyes, Niu Bayi was nothing but sick.

But things are different now.

One person, one boat, and brought back abalone worth several thousand yuan.

This is enough to make Niu Bayi a fisherman of considerable importance.

He has also come into everyone's sights.

Of course, these fishermen had no idea that Niu Bayi would become more and more powerful, eventually becoming a true fishing god!

Before long, everyone had left, and Niu Bayi returned to the wrecked ship, crawled inside, and lay down, which was quite comfortable.

But living in a dilapidated boat all the time is definitely not an option!

Niu Bayi already had a plan.

He needs to go to the village secretary, Niu Aiguo, and ask him to approve a piece of land so he can build a house.

Although he had severed ties with Niu Dazhuang, Niu Bayi was still a member of this fishing village.

Acquiring a piece of land shouldn't be too difficult; it just requires spending more money.

Therefore, making money is very important now!

If you're going to build a house, build a decent one. It should have at least three bedrooms and a living room, plus a kitchen, a toilet, and a storage room.

We absolutely need a yard!

Niu Bayi estimated that building such a large house these days would cost at least 20,000 yuan.

Build a good house, and marry a good wife!

Niu Bayi felt full of energy as soon as he thought about it.

However, before building a house, you need to get a boat that is entirely your own.

Although we can borrow He Zhenzhen's father's boat for now, it is definitely not a long-term solution.

Her family also has to go out to sea to fish!

They absolutely must not go to sea together, otherwise the fact that I have a magical treasure will be revealed.

So, let's get the boat first, then build a beautiful house.

With my current abilities, it's not difficult!

Niu Ba fell asleep with a smile on his face.

I woke up in the afternoon.

The intense sunlight streamed through the boat awning, so that when he opened his eyes, he couldn't see anything.

He casually twisted his body, stretched out his arm, and straddled his leg, then suddenly froze.

Huh?

Why is there a hot and soft body in my arms?
