Drowning is unlikely, but if the child catches a cold as a result, it will be a painful experience for the child.
Fu Wan came out after changing into her wetsuit, and Fu Ming also came over from the cockpit.
"Brother, what brings you here? Who's steering the boat now?"
Without hesitation, Fu Ming said, "We're almost there. There aren't any hidden reefs ahead, so I'll let Xiao Wang try it out."
Fu Wan frowned instantly upon hearing this. "Brother, are you kidding me? Comrade Wang is a novice. You want him to drive the boat?"
"Oh, don't worry, Wan," Fu Ming said with a smile and waved his hand. "I watched him for half an hour, and he didn't make any operational mistakes. Besides, I called Dad over, so he should be in the cockpit by now."
Hearing that Boss Fu had gone to the cockpit, Fu Wan finally felt relieved.
It wasn't that she looked down on Wang Shuo, but that Wang Shuo had never been to sea or sailed a boat before today. Even if he learned quickly, someone would still need to be there to watch over him. Otherwise, if something went wrong, it would be too late to regret it.
"Okay, then hurry up and change your clothes, I'll go take a look too."
After saying that, Fu Wan put on a long coat. Before she even reached the cockpit, she heard Boss Fu talking to Wang Shuo.
"Little Wang, steering a ship is an art, let me tell you..."
Fu Laoda was teaching very seriously. Seeing this, Fu Wan thought for a moment and decided not to disturb them, so she turned around and walked towards the deck.
On the deck, Su Ran and Wen Yue were already fishing. The two held fishing rods and watched Ye Xiaocui cast her longline line one after another.
"Auntie, will you be able to catch fish with bait like this?"
Wen Yue asked curiously, and Ye Xiaocui laughed, "Of course! Your fishing rods catch one fish at a time, but with my longline fishing, you can catch a whole bunch at once!"
"That's amazing?"
Wen Yue was stunned, while Su Ran couldn't stop laughing.
She loved watching Wen Yue's intrigued expression, finding everything fascinating; it was just too amusing.
"What are you talking about?"
Upon seeing Fu Wan approach, Su Ran immediately stood up.
"Ah Wan, Lingling and Mingzhu said you're going to go fishing?"
After asking the question, Su Ran noticed that Fu Wan was wearing a mermaid outfit. Wen Yue looked her over curiously and asked, "Wan, are you wearing a diving suit?"
She had seen wetsuits in foreign magazines before, and they seemed somewhat different from the ones Fu Wan wore.
"I guess so, it was passed down from my ancestors."
Hearing Fu Wan say this, Wen Yue didn't ask any further questions. She just thought to herself, no wonder the clothes look so dusty. They must be an antique passed down from my ancestors.
Fu Wan calmly let her look her over. When Ye Xiaocui heard that Fu Wan was really going to go into the water, she couldn't help but start talking again.
"Ah Wan, it's already so cold outside, why are you going into the water?"
Listen to your mother, just fish on the boat. We can catch those lobsters with our trawl nets later.”
Fu Wan smiled upon hearing this and reached out to hand Ye Xiaocui the fishing hook.
"Mom, I didn't go into the water solely for the lobsters."
Everyone has their own preferences. You like beachcombing, I like catching fish in the water. I got tired of fishing in the port city a few days ago, and since I've finally come out these past two days, can you let me go in the water and have some fun? Don't worry, I swear I won't catch a cold.
She knew her own physical condition; once she went into the water, her body would automatically adapt to the temperature of the seawater.
Ye Xiaocui hesitated, then looked around and saw that the deck was full of women. She sighed and continued, "Oh dear, catching a cold is one thing, but what I'm worried about is something else entirely."
"Won't you get stomach aches when you have your period from such cold water?"
So that's what you were worried about. Fu Wan laughed and said, "Mother, you don't need to worry about that. I haven't been in pain for the past two years."
Ye Xiaocui listened with skepticism, "Really?"
"Of course it's true!"
Fu Wan nodded affirmatively. In fact, she had barely had her period all last year.
As for this year, I don't know if it's because of better nutrition, but my periods have been very regular these past few months, and I've hardly experienced any pain.
Seeing that Fu Wan was determined to go into the water, Ye Xiaocui had no choice but to accept it.
I could only nag her a couple more times, telling her to be careful and come back soon.
Seeing that Fu Ming had also changed into a diving suit and come over, Fu Wan finally felt relieved and ran to the tool pod to get the speargun.
Each person carried a harpoon gun and two nets.
In addition, Fu Wan also took a small harpoon that was one meter long.
Because some bottom-dwelling fish like to hide in the crevices of reefs, a speargun is not always as effective as a harpoon.
Knowing that his son and daughter were going into the water, Boss Fu slowly stopped the boat.
Fu Wan waved to Ye Xiaocui, and then, amidst the surprised and envious gazes of Su Ran, Wen Yue, and the others, she and Fu Ming entered the water one after the other.
The seawater was indeed icy cold. Fu Wan and Fu Ming soaked in the water for two minutes until they felt they had adjusted to the temperature before turning around and swimming towards the seabed.
Watching Fu Ming and Fu Wan disappear into the water like two fish, Wen Yue was filled with admiration once again.
Good heavens, those two are really good swimmers and incredibly brave. This is the deep sea, and they just jumped in without warning.
After Wang Shuo realized what was happening, he was completely dumbfounded.
"Oh no, Uncle Fu, did Comrade Fu Wan forget to bring her diving equipment?"
He had sensed something was off when he watched Fu Wan and the other woman leave, and now he finally realized what it was.
Wang Shuo was, after all, a college student, and he knew the importance of oxygen in the deep sea. But after he finished speaking, he turned around and found that Ye Xiaocui and Boss Fu were not in a hurry at all.
Fu Laoda laughed and said to Wang Shuo in a tone that was half serious and half boastful, "Hey, you mean A-Wan? She doesn't need any oxygen when she goes into the water!"
"Didn't I tell you? My daughter is the best swimmer in this area!"
Wang Shuo still couldn't believe it. No matter how good a swimmer is, he's still human. How can he go into the deep sea without oxygen?
Seeing that he still looked incredulous, Wen Yue immediately patted him on the shoulder.
"Oh dear, Wan isn't stupid. If she can't stand it, she'll definitely come up for air."
That diving gear is so heavy, I wouldn't like carrying it either!
Well, since his wife had said so, Wang Shuo had no choice but to be persuaded.
In fact, he didn't have time to think any further, because as soon as Wen Yue finished speaking, Wang Shuo started shaking the fishing rod in his hand wildly.
"Holy crap, I caught a fish!"
"Wow, that's strong! Uncle Fu, please give me a hand!"
"Oh, here it comes!"
Upon hearing this, Boss Fu hurriedly instructed Wang Shuo on how to walk the fish.
"Xiao Wang, don't panic. Deep-sea fish are strong and powerful. Don't rush to reel them in. Let out the line and let it go. You can reel it in when it gets tired!"
"Great!"
Wang Shuo had never seen anything like this before. It's no exaggeration to say that he felt as if the fishing rod in his hand might snap at any moment.
