Dolphins usually like to spin and jump when they play, unlike what we see now, where they always open their mouths at people.
Moreover, not only does it open its mouth, but it also makes a few calls from time to time. Fortunately, because the dolphin is still small, the sound doesn't reach the top of its head.
"Mom, I understand!"
Fu Ling suddenly cried out in alarm.
Fu Wan was a little confused. "What do you know?"
"I know why the baby dolphin opened its mouth towards us!"
Fu Ling replied in a serious tone, "It must be because they're hungry and want something to eat!"
These words made Boss Fu and the others burst into laughter. Although dolphins are friendly, they rarely ask fishermen for food.
Fu Laoda has been a fisherman for most of his life, but he has never encountered a dolphin asking him for fish.
Children's perspectives may be different, but after thinking about it, Fu Wan actually felt that what Fu Ling said made a lot of sense.
So she turned around and grabbed two handfuls of sardines from the fish basket next to her. Because she was afraid that the dolphin was too small to eat much at once, she deliberately only threw two sardines into the little dolphin's mouth.
The little dolphin next to it saw that its companion had fish in its mouth, so it hurriedly opened its own mouth and even started spinning in circles.
"You were right! These two little guys really are begging for food!"
Helpless, Fu Wan fed the other dolphin two sardines. Two sardines were probably still too few. When Fu Wan put the fish into its mouth, the dolphin didn't close its mouth for a long time.
Fu Wan understood this without much effort. If this guy could talk, he would probably be urging her to give him more.
So she fed it two more dolphins, and sure enough, the dolphin closed its mouth in satisfaction.
As a result, one finished eating while the other finished eating, and it even kept chirping, urging Fu Wan to hurry up.
Fu Wan's forehead was covered in sweat.
Ye Lin and the others nearby also found it strange and caught a handful of sardines to feed the dolphins.
However, this harmonious scene did not last long, because a few minutes later, two adult dolphins jumped out of the sea and started hitting the baby dolphin on the head and tail, just like a parent beating a child.
"Haha, I guess these two little dolphins were chased out to forage for food. I didn't expect these two little guys to be lazy and not chase after schools of fish that are edible, but instead ask us for food!"
Fu Wan couldn't help but laugh. The scene was so hilarious that she could see the kind of breakdowns that many human parents experience in these two adult dolphins.
Seeing that the dolphins had gradually drifted away, Fu Ming immediately sped up and continued trawling. There were no fish on the sea surface to the left or right, so Fu Wan and Ye Xiaocui put the longline fishing line back in.
When she went out to sea earlier, Fu Ming and the others had already retrieved their longline fishing gear.
However, there weren't any particularly outstanding fish; they were mostly sea bream and sea bass, weighing around two pounds each. The most valuable one, however, was a two-pound blue wrasse.
After casting the longline, Fu Wan glanced at her watch again. It was almost three o'clock, and she estimated that by the time she finished hauling in this net, it would be close to evening.
"Father, are we going to spend the night at sea tonight?"
Faced with Fu Wan's question, Boss Fu shook his head, "After we finish this haul, we'll go back. I still need to go check out the new house tomorrow."
Fu Wan and Fu Ming's house is nearing completion, so Boss Fu has been visiting frequently lately, hoping to finish it by the Chinese New Year.
After all, once the house is built, it needs to be thoroughly inspected, and things like furniture making also require careful consideration.
Building a house isn't a simple matter. Fu Wan is able to focus on making money because she has Boss Fu and his team backing her up.
"Then let's go collect the bamboo tubes now!"
Fu Wan suggested that since they were now an hour or two away from Yanwo Island, they could trawle the nets all the way there and then haul them in on the return trip.
However, Fu Wan was not idle on the way to Yanwo Island, because Fu Liang took out his fishing rod again.
"Ah Wan, want to try your luck with a fishing rod?"
Fu Wan wanted to refuse, but the expectation in Fu Liang's eyes made it difficult for her to speak.
So she thought about it and decided that if all else failed, she could just bait the hook and have her father watch over it.
As for herself, she wanted to go back to her cabin and lie down for a while.
Fu Liang hadn't expected Fu Wan to do this, but thinking about it, it made sense. Fu Wan had been diving in the sea for so long, and after returning to the boat, she was constantly pulling the nets and sorting the fish; she never stopped.
It wouldn't have been difficult for Boss Fu to hold two fishing rods by himself, but as one of the rods came under the pull, Boss Fu quickly handed the other rod to Ye Xiaocui, who was watching the commotion from the side.
The fish at the other end of the fishing rod wasn't pulling very hard; Boss Fu reeled it in for less than five minutes. (Image of a grouper, please delete if infringing.) Don't forget what it looks like! "Holy crap, a grouper?!"
After seeing what Boss Fu had gained, Fu Liang couldn't help but swear.
Ever since Boss Fu pulled the fish up, the smile on his face had never left.
"How is it? This fish is pretty good, isn't it!"
Faced with the grouper, Fu Liang and Ye Lin were naturally convinced. Although Jack did not understand the value of the grouper, he knew from Fu Liang's smiling face that the fish was worth a lot.
Fu Liang couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, is this fishing rod A-Wan's?"
Fu Laoda didn't care about this. Upon hearing Fu Liang's words, he immediately glanced at the fishing rod in his hand and then at Ye Xiaocui's fishing rod.
"Yes, this rod definitely belongs to Awan!"
Fu Liang was even more frustrated now. He should have known that Fu Wan was planning to rest after casting her fishing rod, and he would have taken her over himself.
Although all the fish caught are sold together, the feeling of pulling a fish is a personal experience.
Moreover, this is a rare and valuable spotted mouse, enough for him to brag about for a long time.
Despite his frustration, Fu Liang truly admired Fu Wan's luck; she was asleep in the cabin, yet her fishing rod still managed to catch a good fish.
Fu Wan, of course, was unaware of the fish on the deck. She fell asleep almost immediately after entering the cabin, as she was indeed quite tired, and the ship was rocking a bit as it was being pounded by the waves.
For Fu Wan, who was already used to life on the ship, the swaying sensation was like being in a cradle, and it kept her from having a single dream while she slept.
When Fu Wan opened her eyes again, the sky was already ablaze with red clouds, and the setting sun just happened to jump into the water at that moment, dyeing the seawater with color.
"Ah Wan, you're awake?"
Fu Liang and his companions had already packed up their fishing rods and were now dragging their fish baskets, preparing to reel in their longline fishing.
"Brother Liang, let me do it!"
After resting for nearly two hours, Fu Wan now feels full of energy.
Fu Liang thought for a moment and then gave her his spot, pulling the float while Fu Wan pulled the fishing hook.
