Period: I Refuse to Be Bled Dry, and Get Rich Fishing with My Lovely Wife

In his previous life, Chen Xiangdong was forced by his parasitic uncle's family to take the blame for his cousin. His pregnant wife, a sent-down youth, drowned herself in the sea on a freezing night, and he spent the rest of his life in misery.

When he opened his eyes again, he was back at the family division in 1976!

His aunt pointed at him and cursed: "That barren sent-down wife of yours is nothing but a freeloader. Get out of the Chen family! You won't take so much as a grain of rice!"

Chen Xiangdong sneered, slapped down a document severing all family ties, and moved with his stunning wife into an abandoned salt works by the sea.

The whole village waited to see the young couple starve to death in the dead of winter.

But the very next day, when the tide went out, Chen Xiangdong used a steel fork to pin down a premium yellow-lip croaker worth a hundred yuan!

Then came basin-sized green crabs, giant grouper weighing over a hundred jin, precious ambergris from sperm whales... one after another, he claimed them all.

When Chen Xiangdong built a grand tile-roofed house by the sea, outfitted his sent-down wife with the three big items and one modern appliance, and even returned home in glory aboard a powerful motorboat...

A typhoon tore the Chen family's thatched house apart, and his uncle's family knelt in the mud, crying their eyes out. "Xiangdong, we're family, bound together even if our bones are broken! Give your uncle a hand!"

Chen Xiangdong wiped down his double-barreled shotgun. "Get lost. You've got the wrong house!"
