Chapter 140: Changes in the Owner's House in the Fishing Village

They continued to head south along the coast. They encountered two snowfalls on the way, but fortunately they were not heavy and did not delay their journey. In order to find a doctor, they walked and stopped, slept in the open air, and were confused all the way. They didn't know if this place was too poor and there were not many bandits? Or was there something else going on? For many days in a row, they didn't encounter any Japanese bandits or Hu Di. Of course, there were not many ordinary people either.

On this day, Li Yaoguang was on the road, leaning against the car window to tease her younger brother. While looking at the scenery, she saw a small harbor in front of her. It looked like a private harbor. There were several fishing boats moored in it, and fishermen were busy on it. She hurriedly shouted to her uncle to stop the car and got in herself.

Yu Meixue, who was sitting side by side with her husband and accompanying him in the car, didn't know how many times she had been disappointed along the way. She couldn't help but murmur as she watched her child's back going away.

"I don't know if we can find out the doctor's whereabouts this time. Sulang, your legs can't hold you up."

Cheng Su felt a pain in his heart and glared at his broken leg. With a smile on his face, he loosened his hand holding the whip and gently patted his wife.

"It's okay, Meixue. If I get it, I'm lucky. If I lose it, I'll die. I've thought it through. Even if I really become lame, I'll support my family by copying books, mounting paintings, and making baked bowls and pots when I'm settled. Don't worry, I won't be discouraged."

What the husband said sounded nice, and it might be fine. Who wants to be a cripple?
Yu Meixue curled up the corners of her lips and smiled, but in her heart she prayed that her niece could bring back some good news this time.

Running to the busy fishing boat, Li Yaoguang saw an uncle who was shirtless even in the middle of winter carrying a basket of fish off the boat. Just as he was about to turn around and continue, she hurriedly called for help.

"Wait a minute, uncle."

The shirtless uncle was stunned, and looked up with the other seven or eight men who were busy at the scene. They saw a well-dressed boy looking at them. The shirtless uncle subconsciously raised his hand and pointed at himself.

"Xiao Lang called me?"

Li Yaoguang smiled and nodded, then stepped forward and bowed, "Yes, uncle, I'm sorry to bother you, but I just want to ask you something."

Hearing that the person was asking for information, the man smiled and waved his hand, "Hey, you're here to ask me something. What is it? Tell me, young man. If I know anything, I'll tell you."

"Thank you, uncle. I wonder if you and your companions often move around this area? Have you ever seen or heard of an old doctor with a weird temper who specializes in finding poisons but has excellent medical skills?"

"Old doctor?" The uncle fell into reminiscence and couldn't help complaining in his heart. This man had a weird temper and specialized in looking for poisons. He didn't sound like a serious doctor at all!
But the other person was polite, so he couldn't bully her. After trying hard to think for a long time, the uncle shook his head at Li Yaoguang.

"No, I haven't seen him. We are the old sea dwellers of this generation. We live and eat on the fishing boats. We often fish and sell fish around here. But I have never seen or heard the man you are asking about, Xiaolang."

"Oh, so that's it..." Li Yaoguang was disappointed again, but he looked at him as before, took out ten cents from his pocket and stuffed it into the other party as a thank you, then bowed and left quickly.

By the time the shirtless uncle reacted and tried to call out to Li Yaoguang, Li Yaoguang had already walked away and returned to the car.

The shirtless uncle was holding the ten cents in his hand, not knowing what to do. When his other companions who were busy on the fishing boat saw that he had no response for a long time, they jumped down curiously and called him.

"Uncle Wu, Uncle Wu? We still have fish to move, what are you doing? What are you doing? Eh? Uncle Wu, how come you still have money? Where did it come from?"

The boy who jumped down was surprised to see the copper coin in his cousin's hand.

"Uncle Wu, what on earth did you say to that kid just now? Why did you give you so much money? It's enough to buy a pound of fat meat!"

The shirtless man clutched the copper coin tightly in his hand and muttered guiltily, "Hey, just, just ask me if there is a weird old doctor looking for poisons nearby."

"Old doctor looking for poison? Eh?" Sensing that his nephew's tone was not right, the shirtless uncle, who was feeling uneasy after taking the money, turned around and asked, "Why, Xiaosha, do you know?"

The young man called Little Shark scratched his head and muttered, "Uh, when I went to sell crabs last time, didn't I meet a weird doctor at Baiyue Beach?"

The shirtless uncle slapped his thigh and said, "Hey, why didn't you tell me earlier? Come on! Let's go tell them, so they don't feel guilty about taking the money."

The shirtless uncle hurriedly pulled his nephew to chase the carriage that was slowly moving, but the young man who was being dragged struggled hurriedly.

"Hey, uncle, fifth uncle, please don't be anxious. They are looking for an old doctor, and the one I met is a young man with no hair on his face. He looks younger than me. How could he be the old doctor they are looking for? Are you stupid?"

Hearing his nephew's words, the shirtless uncle froze in shock. He let go of his nephew's hand and watched Li Yaoguang and his carriage go away. He felt very regretful, "Alas, it seems that I took advantage of him for nothing..."

Li Yaoguang, who climbed into the car angrily, had no idea of ​​what was happening behind him.

The family drove for about half a day and passed a large crescent-shaped beach covered with white sand in the distance. After walking for a while, they saw that it was getting late and a small fishing village appeared in front of them. Li Yaoguang and his family decided to stay there tonight to avoid having to sleep in the open and find a campsite.

Cheng Su and Yu Meixue naturally had no objection. Cheng Su whipped the horse whip and drove the BMW III towards the small fishing village with the BMW III scurrying behind him.

The fishing villages here are all built with stone and seaweed houses. They are a bit round and look quite cute.

After Li Yaoguang and his party entered the village, they found a family whose house was relatively new in the village, opened the door, and explained their purpose. After seeing the copper fish token and the registration card in Li Yaoguang's hand, and after receiving fifty cents as lodging fee, the middle-aged hostess with red cheeks who could not read at all immediately agreed to let them stay and neatly cleaned up two rooms for them.

Seeing that the other party was sincere and warm, Li Yaoguang returned the favor and took out two pounds of white flour for the woman.

"Auntie, I'd like to share a meal at your house tonight. Here's some food. Is that okay with you?"

When the woman saw that it was white flour, she narrowed her eyes and smiled. She thought that with so much fine grain, even if she made a good meal for the guests, she could also make some dumpling soup for her eldest grandson in private. How could she not refuse? She took the white flour and happily accepted it.

"Don't worry, Xiaolang, my eldest daughter-in-law has prepared tea and food for you. When my sons come back from fishing later, I will definitely select some fine seafood for you and make delicious fish soup white noodles for you and your family."

"Thank you very much, Auntie. If there are good products, just make more dishes. I will not treat you badly then."

"Hahaha, Xiaolang is too polite, hahaha..."

"No, no, by the way, auntie, I want to ask you something, I wonder..."

"Oh no, oh no, Aunt Haihua, something happened to your cat, Cat Dan, at Baiyue Beach! You, you need to go check it out..."

Seeing that the time was right, Li Yaoguang wanted to inquire about the miracle doctor. Unexpectedly, just as he opened his mouth, a young man with his trouser legs half rolled up and a dishevelled look on his face came running in hurriedly from outside the half-man-high courtyard wall, shouting as he ran. Not only did he interrupt Li Yaoguang's question, but the aunt in front of him also suddenly changed her expression. She dropped the flour in her hand and stuffed it back into Li Yaoguang's hand. She rushed past Li Yaoguang, grabbed the newcomer and shook him hard.

"Second child, what did you say? What did you just say?"

The man tried to catch his breath and quickly repeated what he had just shouted. Li Yaoguang saw the woman's face suddenly change. She no longer cared about anything else and cried out loudly. She shook off the boy who reported the news and ran towards the direction where the boy came from.

Li Yaoguang felt something was not good, so he handed the flour in his hand to his aunt and her husband who were cleaning up in the house. They came out of the house to check what was going on after hearing the noise. He quickly greeted them and followed the young man who had reacted and reported the news, and ran towards the Baiyue Beach.
