Chapter 16 Use magic to defeat magic

"If you still have the energy to care about your uncle, you should first think about where to run when you have to eat the dried noodles without oil!"

"I heard that you secretly found a fatherless wife without telling me, and you took advantage of her and spent your mother-in-law's money?"

Chen Huihong patted Chen Hui lightly again, immediately diverting his attention.

"Aunt! What do you mean by sneaky? I am looking for you openly. It is my cousin's mother-in-law who is watching me."

"Of course I didn't tell you. I came here specially to tell you." Chen Hui pretended to be angry.

"Oh? That's fine."

Chen Huihong nodded guiltily and asked, "What about the matter of not having a father? And what about the rumors that you ate at the girl's house?"

"What do you mean no father? It's An Wenjing, the eldest daughter of Aunt Lin Jiao."

"Think about it, how could their family have the spare money to support me? Besides, how could your nephew be that kind of person?" Chen Hui sighed.

"Ah!? The one you're going to marry is An Wenjing, that child is quite good."

"Lin Jiao is a strong-willed person, and she won't drag you down with her family in the future."

When Chen Huihong heard that Chen Hui's girlfriend was An Wenjing, she felt relieved.

Then he looked at Chen Hui and smiled, "Why are you here so late? Aren't you afraid it's unsafe in such a dark day? Have you had dinner? Let's go home and I'll cook you some noodles."

"Aunt, you are so realistic."

"Just now I was worried about dragging others down, but in the blink of an eye I'm happy that Aunt Lin won't drag me down." Chen Hui joked.

Chen Hui's face darkened, with an expression of "I'm so tired", but facing her beloved nephew, she couldn't stop the smile on her lips.

"Okay, I was wrong, I was just kidding."

"Aunt, is uncle going out to sea with someone?" Chen Hui acted coquettishly and turned his attention back to Wu Shuisheng.

"Yes, pack up in advance and leave at dawn."

"Don't worry about him, let's go home and cook noodles." Chen Huihong picked up the bucket and said to Chen Hui while pulling him.

"Whichever direction they are going, I want to go too," said Chen Hui.

Chen Hui has long wanted to go to farther sea areas.

Most fishing boats don't take outsiders out, so this is a good opportunity.

"Have you ever been to the sea? When you see it, you want to go. Don't join in the fun, you are not going there for fun." Chen Huihong said.

"No! I'm going!"

"Hey, kid, you don't understand what people say, right?"

"Aunt! I just want to go with you! I'm not going there to play!"

"Then go talk to your uncle yourself!"

Wu Shuisheng is not like Chen Huihong. He has never looked down upon his wife, his unpromising nephew.

However, Chen Hui didn't hate him.

After all, Wu Shuisheng had always turned a blind eye to the fact that Chen Huihong gave him money to spend.

"Aunt, how can I deal with my uncle?"

"Please, let my uncle take me to see the world?"

"What if I'm a good swimmer and can adapt to the turbulence on the boat? Then I'll have another way to make a living after we get married, right?"

"You don't expect me to continue to live the same life as before after I get married, do you?"

Chen Hui smiled harmlessly.

After hearing these words so many times, he even learned to use magic to defeat magic.

"Well, it's rare that you can still think of these things."

Seeing that Chen Hui seemed to be determined to make progress, Chen Huihong was somewhat persuaded.

"Aunt, if my father knew that you led me onto the right path, he would feel at ease down there."

"I also want to strive for success, but there must be a way to do so."

"I promise not to cause trouble. If I do, my uncle will throw me into the sea."

"What did you say?" Chen Huihong looked at Chen Hui warily and said, "Don't talk nonsense! People who go out to sea are most afraid of these things. Hurry up and step on them."

Ok?
Oh, oh, oh. Chen Hui thought it was very funny.

But he still cooperated and made three "Puh, Puh, Puh" sounds at the ground, then jumped and stomped on it a few times.

She continued to act coquettishly and said, "Aunt, I really lack a direction."

"Okay, got it!"

"You can go and have fun, but don't even think about going out to sea with me!"

"They're going to be gone for a whole day. Have you thought about it? If you throw up all over the boat, it will be too late to regret it."

Chen Huihong was defeated.

Chen Hui patted his chest and made repeated assurances.

She was completely convinced, and with great satisfaction, she went to the boat to discuss the matter with Wu Shuisheng.

Wu Shuisheng doesn't indulge Chen Hui.

When I heard that he wanted to go with me, I refused without saying a word.

Chen Huihong pulled him aside and talked a lot, and made a lot of promises, such as "When he becomes successful and can earn money on his own, I won't give him a penny."

Wu Shuisheng couldn't do anything about Chen Huihong, and he really hoped that he wouldn't have to help Chen Hui.

Finally agreed.

I only added one thing: after Chen Hui gets on board, everything will be up to me.

"Don't worry, uncle. Once you're on board, your words will be the imperial decree. If you say go east, I won't even look west!"

"Hey, when did you come here, you scared me."

Chen Huihong turned around and cursed.

"It has been here for a long time, you are just deaf." Wu Shuisheng complained.

"Then I'll go back and cook some snacks, and you can come back and eat some later." Chen Huihong said.

Wu Shuisheng nodded, and told Chen Hui not to eat too much and not to leave only the noodle soup for himself every time.

"Aunt, another bowl please!"

Compared to the food at Lin Jiao's home, which only contains very little oil and salt.

The seafood noodles cooked by Chen Huihong are the most delicious thing Chen Hui has eaten since his rebirth.

It was even better than the meal we had in the county town.

"Didn't your uncle tell you to leave some for him?"

Talking means talking, laughing means laughing.

Chen Huihong handed Chen Hui another large bowl and said, "Eat more. You can't eat so much for breakfast tomorrow, or you'll vomit again."

"Don't worry, I'm a good swimmer and I won't vomit when I go out to sea." Chen Hui was full of confidence.

Chen Huihong took the bowl and looked at him questioningly, "Did you secretly go out to sea on a boat without telling me?"

"How dare I!"

"I would never dare to do such a dangerous thing!" Chen Hui immediately corrected his attitude.

Seeing him like this, Chen Huihong no longer doubted him and served him another bowl of noodles.

After eating two bowls of noodles, Chen Hui burped, ran outside to the yard, and lay down on the rocking chair to take a nap.

"Why are you sleeping here? Go sleep inside." Chen Huihong came out and patted him.

"No, what if you change your mind and don't call me? I'll sleep here, and I'll definitely know if my uncle goes out." Chen Hui said with a smile.

"Even if you sleep on the sand beside the boat, you won't wake up if the boat runs away."

"Be good, go to bed quickly."

Chen Hui thought about it and it seemed to make sense, so he got up and went into the house.

Because it’s my first time going out to sea.

Chen Huihong was afraid that Chen Hui would not be able to adapt, so she prepared mooncakes and some fruits for him, took out a kettle to use when going up the mountain, and also filled a large pot of warm water for him.

I calculated that it was almost time before I woke him up from his sleep.
