Getting Rich by Fishing for Seafood in the 1990s

In her previous life,

Lin Ruyue looked down on the poverty and hardship of life in a fishing village. At her birth family's urging, she abandoned her badly injured husband and three-year-old daughter,

took her husband's compensation money, and followed a pretty young man far away.

Who could have known that as soon as she boarded the train, she would be sold off and taken deep into the mountains, where she never escaped before her death?

After she died, she saw her wheelchair-bound husband searching for her all over the country with their daughter. Filled with regret, she thought that if she could go back, she would never leave them for a life of pleasure.

When she opened her eyes again, she was still Lin Ruyue, living in a small fishing village in the late 1990s.

She thought of her husband in the hospital bed, waiting for an exorbitant surgery fee, and her daughter crying that she was hungry.

Looking at the completely bare kitchen, she dropped her luggage and grabbed a bucket, then ran to the tidal flats near home.

She had thought that missing the best time to gather from the tidal flats would leave her empty-handed.

But when she reached the shore, she saw a patch of red light.

She dug where the light pointed,

and found razor clams, mantis shrimp, swimming crabs, oysters, and all kinds of other seafood...

From then on, Lin Ruyue used her golden finger to become the most successful fisher in the small village.

With the money she earned, she healed her husband's injuries and raised her daughter to be plump and rosy-cheeked.

She also paid off the family's debts, bought them a fishing boat, and built a big house.

Watching her family grow better day by day, Lin Ruyue felt that staying in the small fishing village and being a fisher wasn't so bad after all.
