The two sea turtles that landed on the deck were the Blooming of Fortune. After being pulled out of the pile of fish, the two turtles began to wander around the deck.
They really were wandering around, especially Fugui, whose limbs were moving incredibly fast, showing no trace of a tortoise.
Fu Ming's ship didn't have a large deck area. Ye Jianguo stared at it for a long time before suddenly realizing what it meant.
"Is this sea turtle looking for Awan?"
As soon as Ye Jianguo finished speaking, Fugui paused for a moment, then started rummaging through Fu Ming's rubber shoes.
Where are my two-legged friends?!
Fu Gui was quite strong, but it didn't have claws on its forelimbs, so after scratching for a long time, it didn't leave any scratches on Fu Ming's shoes.
Fu Gui rarely gets close to Fu Ming, and he squatted down, intending to touch the tortoise shell a couple of times.
When Fu Gui saw that the boy still wouldn't honestly tell him where Fu Wan was, he got anxious and opened his mouth wide to bite down on Fu Ming's shoe.
"Awoooooo!"
Even though there was some glue between them, Fu Ming still shouted it out exaggeratedly.
"Alright, alright, Awan isn't here, she's on that ship!"
Fu Ming picked up Fugui and turned its head towards Fu Wan.
He pointed ahead impatiently, "See that big ship? Ah Wan is on it!"
After saying that, without caring whether the thing understood or not, Fu Ming put it down again.
Damn it, those two sea turtles took up most of the trawl net just now, and the rest of the catch was just some small fish and shrimp. He had to deal with them with Ye Jianguo quickly and then throw the trawl net back down.
Fu Ming was too busy shoveling fish to keep an eye on the two sea turtles. He heard two loud splashes, and then Fu Gui and Hua Kai were nowhere to be seen on the deck.
"Hey, these two sea turtles are just like kids. When they can't find Awan and the others, they know to run back into the sea."
Ye Jianguo muttered to himself, and Fu Ming deeply agreed.
"You're right! Look how clean they just cleaned my shoes!"
He had just finished hauling the nets, and his shoes were filthy. Fugui had just given him a good scrubbing, cleaning off all the dirt.
Who would believe it if I told them a sea turtle polished his shoes!
While Fu Wan was still processing the trawling catch, Boss Fu washed the net clean and prepared to cast it down for another haul.
Fu Wan casually tugged at the extended fishing line beside her, feeling it was about time to reel in the hook.
"Dad, it's about time to pack up the extended fishing."
Boss Fu nodded, "Then you can go with Ah Shi and Comrade Xiao Fang to collect the catch, and I'll go with your brother Ah Lin to set up the trawl nets."
Fu Wan responded and picked up a fish basket, preparing to call Fang Min to reel in the line. But the next second, a series of loud crashes came from the stern of the boat.
What was that sound?
The commotion was so loud that even Ye Xiaocui, who was busy on the deck, felt it.
Fu Wangang didn't see Fu Ming's condition either, but this familiar commotion wasn't the first or second time.
She carried a net to the stern of the boat and fished around for a while. After feeling the weight in the net, Fu Wan lifted it up with both hands. The weight she felt the next second almost made her question her life.
It's so heavy, how come she couldn't lift it?
Fang Min was still wary of this strange noise, but upon seeing it, she quickly went to help.
It took the two of them quite a while to pull the landing net onto the deck.
"Oh dear, no wonder it was so difficult, two sea turtles!"
The net bag was full, and when Fu Guihua saw Fu Wan, she excitedly started rummaging through it.
Seeing this, Fu Wan quickly helped Fang Min lift them out of the net bag.
Fugui came out first, and just as it was about to climb over to Fu Wan, Ye Xiaocui came over carrying a bucket.
"Is this a place of wealth and honor? Come, come, have some food! Make yourself at home here!"
Fu Wan felt something was off, but when Ye Xiaocui skillfully stuffed food into Fugui's mouth and even placed several fish on the deck in front of it, she realized what was going on.
This is how Ye Xiaocui greets the children who come to pay their respects during the Chinese New Year!
"Hey, this guy's a picky eater!"
Ye Lin clicked his tongue in amazement. Ye Xiaocui had piled up small fish and shrimp in front of Fugui Huakai that hadn't been picked over yet, but Fugui was very shrimp-like and only picked out the hawk claw shrimp and small yellow croaker to eat.
As for other sea catfish, it nudged them away with its head, looking disgusted.
Fu Wan found it amusing and picked out a few smaller yellow croakers and mantis shrimp for it. Seeing this, Fu Gui nudged the good fish and shrimp that Fu Wan had picked out with its head and pushed them in front of Hua Kai.
Hua Kai, as if it were nothing out of the ordinary, lowered her head and began to eat.
"Hey, our Fugui is a returnee who dotes on his wife!"
Fu Wanle laughed, and Fugui, feeling a little embarrassed by her laughter, buried his head in the pile of fish and remained motionless for a long time.
"Alright, alright, I won't make fun of you anymore. You can help yourselves with the yellow croaker and mantis shrimp here, I have to get back to work!"
After playing with Fu Gui for a while, Fu Wan hurriedly got up and joined the busy team.
Fugui and Huakai took a couple of bites, then glanced at the busy crowd, looking quite relaxed.
"These sea turtles are so much more carefree!"
Fu Shi scooped up the float from the extended fishing line and, out of the corner of his eye, saw Fu Gui Hua Kai looking in their direction, and couldn't help but sigh.
Humans are not as good as turtles. Turtles live in the sea, and when they are hungry, they just find something to eat. They don't have any worries at all.
Moreover, sea turtles have few natural enemies in the ocean.
Fu Shi rarely saw sea turtles, let alone such a human-like sea turtle. Thinking about today's trip at sea, it really opened his eyes.
After retrieving the float, Fu Wan and Fang Min pulled the extension fishing line back together. The higher they pulled, the more she could feel something moving at the other end of the line.
"There are fish! Mom, give me a net to catch them!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Xiaocui hurriedly picked up the net from the ground and went over, saying, "You pull the rope, and I'll scoop it up for you!"
Fu Laoda pushed the trawl net into the sea and took the hand net from his wife's hand.
"I'll do it, you go and rest for a while."
After working for so long, Ye Xiaocui was already parched.
"Okay, I'll go get the kettle."
Fu Wan paid no attention to what was happening with her parents; her entire focus was on the extended fishing.
"Hey, look, it's a winged one!"
A red fish came into view, and Boss Fu quickly scooped it up with his net.
"It's a red maiden!"
Red mullet, also known as green-winged fish, has a pair of beautiful green wings.
This fish is entirely red, with bluish-brown markings on its head and back. It also has a vertical stripe running from below its eyes to its mouth, and a circular spot on its gill cover. The red croaker, also known as the green-finned red croaker, has incredibly tender flesh, making it an excellent ingredient for soup. Previously, many families along the coast who couldn't buy pig's feet when they were pregnant would buy these red croakers to make soup.
"This fish makes a good soup. Set it aside and we'll make soup for Lingling and the others tomorrow!"
With a single sentence, Boss Fu decided the fate of the redhead fish. Fu Wan quickly removed the hook and put the fish into the live water tank.
