"It's nothing, what could possibly happen to me?"
Feng Ye smiled and said, "There's a big fish in this puddle. I couldn't handle it by myself before the tide came in, so I tried to send Xiao Hei back to get help. I didn't expect it to actually understand and bring you back."
"You're really something. Would it kill you to make the trip yourself? You sent a dog back instead, and I was so worried about you."
"Time is tight and the task is heavy. Wouldn't it be a waste of my time to make this trip? Alright, hurry back and get the bucket. Let's pump out the puddle together and get the big fish out of it."
Ye Chenliang quickly said, "I can run fast, I'll go back and get the bucket."
Before the words were even finished, the person had already turned around and ran quickly towards home.
When Ye Qingling descended to the rocky area and arrived at the water pit, Feng Ye jumped into the pit again and began scooping water out.
Xiao Hei also came down, jumping into the water with a "plop," splashing around happily and sending water flying everywhere. Feng Ye even got his face covered in water.
He wiped the water droplets from his face and glared at Xiao Hei with annoyance: "Don't cause trouble here. Hurry up and go find the goods, or I won't give you extra food."
"Woof woof..."
Feng Ye didn't understand what Xiao Hei was yelling, but in any case, Xiao Hei left the puddle and ran away.
Why are you getting angry over a dog?
Ye Qingling couldn't help but chuckle at Feng Ye's expression.
"That stupid dog..."
Feng Ye snorted, then asked curiously, "Ah Ling, do you know who taught Xiao Hei how to catch seafood?"
"Huh? Little Black knows how to go beachcombing?"
Ye Qinglong was taken aback. "I don't know. I haven't been out beachcombing for more than half a year."
She has been staying at home all this time, never leaving the house.
Especially after her belly started to show, in order to avoid seeing people, she stopped doing the work of collecting raw materials and receiving goods in the workshop and handed it over to Du Guilan and Aunt Ling, not to mention going to the crowded beach.
"I'm wondering the same thing. This dog is really clever; it actually helped me find seafood just now."
Feng Ye pointed to a small puddle nearby, "The goods in there, like sea bass, conch, sea cucumbers... many of them were found by Xiao Hei, and there's also that spiny lobster."
Ye Qingling walked over and took a look, then mocked, "So, you didn't find as much as a dog."
Feng Ye blushed and argued, "Isn't there another giant grouper? That one alone is more valuable than the ones Xiao Hei found."
Ye Qingling continued teasingly, "But there's only one. Little Black found a lot, and they're all good stuff."
"This silly dog is really amazing; it even found the fish in this puddle."
Feng Ye was somewhat helpless, but he had to admit that Xiao Hei's performance today had truly amazed him.
What kind of fish?
"I couldn't see clearly, I only saw that it was a red fish, and it was quite big."
"Red? What kind of fish could it be?"
"We'll have to wait until the puddle is drained to know. Hopefully it's a good fish, so all my hard work won't be for nothing."
"It's definitely something good, it won't be a waste..."
As they were talking, Ye Chenliang rushed back.
Feng Ye's father also came along.
The two men, each carrying a bucket, ran breathlessly.
Feng Ye quickly called out, "Here!"
"They're here, they're here."
Before long, the two arrived, jumped into the puddle, and began to work.
"Ah Ling, you go home first, people are starting to come and go beachcombing."
As Feng Jiaqing scooped water, he gave instructions to Ye Qingling.
"good."
Ye Qingling nodded and turned to walk towards home.
She's pregnant now, and she can't let anyone find out, or it will only cause trouble.
The three of them were naturally much faster, and the water level dropped at a visible rate.
When the water level dropped to knee height, a red color suddenly appeared, then it flicked its tail and disappeared, hiding at the bottom of the water.
Ye Chenliang happened to witness the scene and exclaimed, "Holy crap, there's a big fish!"
"I already said it was a big fish, do you still doubt it?"
Feng Ye laughed smugly.
Where? Where is it?
Feng Jiaqing quickly asked, his eyes searching through the puddle.
He was so focused on scooping water out that he didn't see any fish coming out.
"It went underwater again; it's a red fish."
Ye Chenliang said excitedly, and worked even harder.
Feng Jiaqing was also full of energy, swinging the bucket in his hand even faster.
When the water reached my calves, the red fish reappeared, revealing its back.
At that moment, all three of them saw it and their faces lit up with surprise.
"What a big and beautiful fish."
Ye Chenliang couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Feng Jiaqing also said, "It is indeed quite large, probably seventy or eighty centimeters long."
"You guys continue, I'll go catch it and see what kind of fish it is?"
As Feng Ye spoke, he threw down the bucket and eagerly pounced on the red fish.
Before we even got close, the fish seemed startled, flicked its tail, and dived back into the water.
But the water was too shallow, and the fish were too big; even if you dived down, you could still vaguely see them.
In particular, the ripples it creates as it swims are reflected on the water's surface, so how could it escape?
Feng Ye captured him without much effort.
The moment the fish was pulled out of the water, all three of them were excited and exclaimed in surprise.
"What kind of fish is that? It's huge!"
This is Ye Chenliang.
Feng Jiaqing and his son then called out the name of the fish.
"Nagao sea bream!"
"Red-tailed bird!"
