Chapter 932 Those Who Collect Protection Fees

"Mom, he's awake, but he has lost his memory." Shui Sheng ran out.

She helped her mother unload the pole and bucket. She usually used buckets to deliver fish. She usually set off at two in the morning and came back around eight in the morning. It took six hours to walk back and forth, and it was close to four o'clock in the morning. Hours, more than two hours when I came back.

Because it was uphill when I went there and I still had cargo, but it was downhill when I came back and I came back empty.

"How's the fish stew going?" Shui Sheng's mother asked.

"It'll be ready soon." Shui Sheng said. Although they are fishermen, they don't often eat fish because fish is very expensive and can be sold for money. They usually eat steamed buns and rice. When vegetables are cheap, they buy some vegetables. When vegetables are expensive, make some pickles yourself.

Life is very hard.

Moreover, Shui Sheng had only eaten such a big fish once when he was so big. That was when his mother stewed it for her when he was seriously ill.

"How are you?" Shui Sheng's mother walked into the wooden house and asked.

"It's okay, I just can't remember anything. I get a headache just thinking about it." Xia Tian explained that Shui Sheng's mother was dressed very simply, but there were no patches on her clothes. Like Shui Sheng, she wore boots. He was wearing an apron and his face was dirty.

Her hair is tied up.

There were fish scales in her hair.

"It may be that your brain was hit. Shui Sheng made a fish stew for you. Eat the fish first to recover. When I have the opportunity, I will take you to the hospital in the city to see you." Shui Sheng's mother said.

"Thank you, Auntie!" Xia Tian said.

"It's okay. I fish all year round. Saving you is considered a good deed." Shui Sheng's mother's face showed no change in expression. Her face was full of traces of time and had deep wrinkles.

Soon, Xia Tian could smell the fragrance of fish. He felt very hungry, as if he hadn't eaten for a long time.

"Okay!" Shui Sheng used a hook to bring the pot directly to the table: "Don't worry, you haven't eaten for a long time. Drink some fish soup to warm your stomach first. Fish soup is very nutritious."

"Yes!" Xia Tian nodded.

Shui Sheng brought a long ladle and poured a bowl of fish soup for Xia Tian.

Shui Sheng's mother took out a few steamed buns and a pile of pickles.

"Mom, here is the fish soup for you." Shui Sheng gave her mother a bowl of fish soup. There was a lot of fish in the fish soup.

"You can eat this. Mom doesn't like fish." Shui Sheng's mother served herself another bowl. His bowl was full of fish soup, with only a few fish bones brought in.

"Mom!" Shui Sheng pouted. She knew that her mother was reluctant to eat and wanted to give the meat to her and Xia Tian.

"Eat quickly, I will go fishing after eating for a while." Shui Sheng's mother said.

"Yes!" Shui Sheng nodded, and then took a piece of meat for Xia Tian: "Brother Shui, you eat meat."

"Brother Shui?" Shui Sheng's mother was slightly startled.

"Oh, I gave him the name. He couldn't remember his own name, so I gave him this name." Shui Sheng said directly.

Xia Tian gave Shuisheng's mother the fish meat in the bowl.

"Brother Shui, you can eat it!" Shui Sheng's mother also called Xia Tian directly Brother Shui.

"Auntie, my stomach is uncomfortable. Drinking some fish soup will make it better. Can you give me a full head? I feel that eating some pasta should make it better." Xia Tian said. He could see that the mother and daughter were not happy. He was willing to eat this fish because he was an outsider and his life was saved.

Boom!

At this moment, there was a noise outside.

"Come out!" A loud shout came from outside.

"I'll go out first." Shui Sheng's mother stood up and walked outside.

Shui Sheng and Xia Tian also followed out.

"Sister Shui, today is the day you should pay the fee. Bring it." Three shirtless men stood outside. The leader had a tattoo on his arm and a big gold chain around his neck. He had shaved off his hair. A short position.

"Brother Hu, can you please give me two days' grace? It's hard to catch fish recently. If you give me two days' grace, I will definitely give you the money." Sister Shui begged.

"I think you are being shameless. You say this every month. I give you two days of grace every month. What do other people think?" Brother Hu said in a cold tone.

"Brother Hu, I promise this is the last time." Sister Shui swore.

"Okay, I will give you this last chance. If I hadn't seen you as a poor mother and daughter, I would have driven you away. This is the last time. If you still delay like this next time, I will call you If your house is demolished, you will never be able to fish here again," Brother Hu warned.

"Definitely! Definitely!" Sister Shui said hurriedly.

"Let's go!" Brother Hu said and walked outside.

"What do they do?" Xia Tian asked puzzledly.

"What else can I do? Collect protection fees." Shui Sheng said with a pout.

"No one cares?" Although Xia Tian lost his memory, he was not stupid and naturally knew that there was a police officer.

"Who cares? They are all people with backgrounds. It's useless if you call the police. The police can't catch them at all. They all have information, and they will take revenge on you." Shui Sheng said.

"Stop talking, let's go in and eat. After dinner, let's go fishing." Sister Shui said.

The atmosphere during the meal was very depressing. Even Shui Sheng stopped talking. After the meal, Shui Ao wanted to go fishing with Shui Sheng. Xia Tian asked to go with them. Shui Ao didn't agree at first because Xia Tian still had injuries , but Xia Tian has a tough attitude and insists on following.

Sister Shui put a homemade life jacket on Xia Tian to prevent Xia Tian from falling into the water. Their fishing tool was very simple, just a net. The net was not big, and there were no blades or anything like that on the net.

They hunted live fish because dead fish would be worthless if sent over the next morning.

"Brother Shui, be careful, the fish is very powerful." Shui Sheng reminded.

"Yes." Xia Tian nodded.

The boat was small and had no engine. It was propelled by rowing. They rowed for a full hour before Mrs. Shui stopped the boat.

Fishing is already possible here.

net!

Close the net!

Shui Sheng made a simple action, but nothing was caught. The fish was not easy to catch, and the timing was also important.

She kept repeating this action.

The sun was getting hotter and hotter, but Shui Sheng and her mother didn't seem to feel it at all.

"Can I try?" Xia Tian looked at Shui Sheng and asked.

"Okay, but be careful, don't fall." Shui Sheng thought for a while and then handed the net to Xia Tian.

When Xia Tian saw the net in his hand, he knew that it was a tool for Shui Sheng and her mother to eat, and Brother Hu was here today. If they couldn't catch more fish back, they would definitely not be able to pay.

"We must catch fish." Xia Tian firmly said to himself.
