Chapter 310 Preparations at Sea
"Awan, let's go out to sea today!"
Fu Wan was heading to the dock when she heard someone calling her. The voice sounded familiar, and when she looked closely, she realized it was Wang Panlan, whom she hadn't seen for a long time.
"Sister Panlan, long time no see. I'm about to go out to sea!"
Although they are from the same village, Wang Panlan has been getting up early every day to go out and sell pork with Fu Dazhuang since she married him, and she will not come back until the pork is sold out at noon.
The money from selling pork is enough to cover the family expenses, so Wang Panlan doesn’t have to work in the fields and rarely sits and chats with villagers.
So Fu Wan hadn't seen her for a long time.
But at this moment, Fu Wan really believed what Ye Xiaocui had said before.
Looking at Wang Panlan's rosy face, she is indeed living a good life.
"Awan, we have to hurry, it's getting dark!"
Ye Xiaocui turned back and urged, and Fu Wan could only smile apologetically at Wang Panlan.
"Sister Panlan, let's chat next time. I'm going out to sea first. Come to my house and play when you come back!"
"Okay, I wish you a full internet!"
Wang Panlan watched Fu Wan go away with a smile on her face, looking back at her wonderful life in the past two months. If it were before she divorced Da Laizi, she would not even dare to think about it.
After Fu Wan got on the boat, she put the fishing net in her hand on the deck. She had not looked at the boat since it was repaired. When she looked at it now, she found that compared with before, there was no sign of damage.
The big hole that was drilled by the swordfish has been patched up. Boss Fu must have tested it by pouring water on it before, because the water marks on the deck have not completely disappeared.
There are quite a few people on the boat today, including Boss Fu's family, Jiang Chunlan and Fu Liang, mother and son, Ye Lin and Ye Zhenxing, father and son, and Ye Xiaofeng.
There are four children alone!
The chirping sounds made Fu Wan rush them all to the side of the cabin to play as quickly as possible.
It was the first time for Ye Xiaofeng and Ye Zhenxing to go out to sea by boat, and they were extremely excited.
But the excitement was soon replaced by discomfort, especially for Ye Zhenxing, who lay on the side of the boat and vomited non-stop.
"Haha, my brother knows how to feed fish just like my uncle!"
Fu Ling was clapping her hands and laughing beside her. She still remembered that Ye Lin vomited like this when he went out to sea for the first time.
Ye Zhenxing's biological father, Ye Lin, didn't care about his son and stood by with a look of gloating on his face.
You little bastard, you really think going out to sea is so fun!
Perhaps because of the sour smell of vomit, Ye Xiaofeng also felt a little uncomfortable in her lower abdomen.
But when she thought about the meat and delicious pancakes she had eaten in the evening, she couldn't bear to vomit, so she could only squat aside, covering her uncomfortable stomach.
Fu Wan soon noticed her appearance. After all, she was just a little girl and not as tough as boys.
She walked forward, gently hugged Ye Xiaofeng and patted her back, "Xiaofeng, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Ye Xiaofeng wanted to shake her head, but the next second her stomach churned and she couldn't hold it back any longer and vomited with a "wow".
She vomited and cried at the same time, "My meat, my pancake!"
The delicious food I finally managed to eat is gone now!
Fu Wan looked at her with some amusement, and held her by the boat until she vomited. Ye Xiaocui, who was beside her, had already gone to the cabin to get a kettle and poured two bowls of water.
"Drink some water and rinse your mouth!"
Seasickness is very uncomfortable, but you will often feel much better after vomiting.
After Ye Xiaofeng and Ye Zhenxing rinsed their mouths with water, they sat quietly for a few minutes and began to adapt.
Ye Lin couldn't stand dirt, so he quickly cleaned up the vomit on the deck.
"Ah Lin, you and Ah Liang push the trawl down!"
Boss Fu walked over from the cockpit. Fu Ming was driving the boat at this moment.
Night had fallen by then, and the sea was pitch black. Occasionally, a few fishing boats could be seen with their lights on.
Boss Fu directed Fu Ming to drive the fishing boat towards Swallow's Nest Island. Because it was late at night, they were not planning to go to the island.
The reason he went there was because several times valuable seafood was caught near Yanwo Island. He guessed that it was because the ecology of the sea area there was better, so he thought of trying his luck there again.
The first time I go out to sea after the Mid-Autumn Festival, I must have a good omen and cannot return with an empty fish basket!
"Awan, look at what this is!"
Fu Wan was preparing bait for longline fishing. The octopus, small fish and shrimp she had bought before were still alive and had not been cut into pieces.
Seeing Fu Liang acting so mysterious, she moved closer curiously.
But after seeing clearly what he was holding, Fu Wan couldn't help but move the stool aside with disgust.
This guy took out a bag of something from somewhere, and it looked like it was poultry offal!
It wasn't even washed, and it was bloody!
"Where did the entrails come from?"
Seeing Fu Wan looking at him speechlessly, Fu Liang scratched his head at a loss and hurriedly explained.
"This is from the pheasant we had for lunch today. My aunt originally said to stir-fry it with chili peppers, but Ming said we could put this in the crab pot and catch lots of crabs!"
So he kept this in mind and brought it from the well just now.
Fishing for crabs with their internal organs is indeed a unique skill, but that is only possible now that the Fu family's living standards have improved. In the past, this is at least a meat dish, so how could it be wasted like this?
"But do you really not need to wash this thing before putting it in the crab pot?"
"No need, just keep it as it is, it will attract more crabs!"
Fu Ming's voice came from behind, startling Fu Wan and the others.
"Then put this thing in the crab pot and release it into the sea with the longline."
Fu Wan didn't stop moving her hands. Although sardines and octopus also had a fishy smell, the bowl of chicken innards that Fu Liang had just taken was covered in blood, and she didn't want to deal with it.
When Fu Ming heard about this work arrangement, he readily agreed.
He came if he wanted to. He still couldn’t believe that he couldn’t catch crabs with such good chicken offal!
It’s a pity that there is no pork liver, otherwise it would have a stronger fishy smell and a better effect!
After pushing the trawl net down, Boss Fu began to move around the sea to drag the net. Fu Wan saw that the time was almost up and the boat was not going very fast, so she started to string the bait for longline fishing.
Ye Lin and Fu Wan sat on one side, placing the fishing line and float, while Jiang Chunlan and Ye Xiaocui were responsible for stringing the bait.
There have never been so many people on this boat. After putting away the crab cages, Fu Ming and Fu Liang had nothing to do.
"Amin, why don't we go fishing?"
Recently, Fu Liang has also become obsessed with fishing. He spends the whole day wandering around the beach with Boss Fu, holding a fishing rod.
The whole person is tanned!
Now that he had nothing to do, he felt a little itchy.
"Okay, I'll get the fishing rod!"
The fishing rods were obtained by Boss Fu from Uncle Fu, and Fu Ming made some himself from bamboo. It is no exaggeration to say that they brought a total of seven or eight fishing rods on the boat.
The two brothers each chose a fishing rod that they liked, grabbed some bait from Fu Wan's bucket, then swung the fishing rod beside the boat and began waiting for a miracle.
As a result, after working hard for a long time, no miracle happened. Instead, a group of street kids came to play in the sea.
"嘤嘤!"
The familiar voice made Fu Wan and others who were working hard look up instantly. Sure enough, a group of killer whales were frying fish a few dozen meters away from the boat.
Although it was late at night, the little killer whale's eyes were very sharp and it immediately recognized Fu Wan and her group's boat.
It barked cheerfully several times, as if greeting Fu Wan. While barking, it rushed towards Fu Wan. At this moment, a white figure suddenly appeared on the sea surface not far away.
Fu Wan thought it was the white dolphin from before, but looking at the mouth of that thing, it didn't look like a dolphin at all.
"Awan, why does that thing look like a humpback whale?!"
