Chapter 180: Going Fishing Again (Page 1/2)
Ling Fei and Huo Qingyan were busy preparing for pregnancy, while Lin Man and Huo Qingci were busy going out to sea to fish, because they would be able to return to Beijing at the end of next month.
On May 20, Lin Man gave Liao Sijie three days off and asked her to go back to the farm to discuss with her parents whether she should go back to Beijing with them or stay on the farm to live with her parents.
Huo Qingci took all of this month's vacation time together. After dinner, the four of them entered Lin Man's space.
Huo Yining was sitting on the crawling mat in the living room playing with toys, while Huo Yian was placed on the electronic cradle and rocking leisurely.
Lin Man and Huo Qingci sat on the sofa, eating fruit and watching a videotape of the science fiction film Star Wars.
"Qingci, look at our An An, isn't she very well behaved? Even after waking up, she didn't cry or make a fuss."
Lin Man looked at the little guy lying in the baby electric rocking cradle with a doting look on her face, her eyes full of maternal love.
Huo Qingci nodded in agreement, his eyes also falling on the child, "Yes, our An An is indeed very well-behaved, and she smiles so sweetly."
At this moment, Huo Qingci caught a glimpse of Huo Yining from the corner of his eye, and saw that he had crawled up from the ground at some point, and then raised his little feet without hesitation and kicked the building block house that he had just painstakingly built to the ground.
He couldn't help but frown and muttered, "Manman, my hands are a little itchy."
"Ah, what happened? Were you bitten by a bug?" Lin Man asked with concern.
Huo Qingci pointed at the scattered blocks on the floor in annoyance, "No, it's just that I saw that little troublemaker and my hands were itching to spank him. Just look at him, he's causing trouble everywhere!"
Lin Man turned around to look around the crawling mat, and sure enough, she found the ground was littered with damaged building blocks.
She smiled helplessly and said, "It's okay, he just piled it up and destroyed it himself. This little guy is just a little more active and very clingy."
Lin Man knew clearly that Huo Yining had been poisoned by his own mother in his previous life and had a very tragic fate.
So in this life, she only hoped that he could be healthy and happy every day. Even if he was a little naughty, it didn't matter, as long as he was kind by nature.
"Manman, let's wait until the child falls asleep before we set off."
"Well, you watch them in space later. I'll go drive the boat out."
"It's fine for Manman to fish at night, but will she be discovered by other fishing boats if she fishes during the day? After all, there aren't many fishing boats that can carry hundreds of tons of cargoes right now."
“Well, I understand. During the day, the radar will help scan fishing boats within 20 nautical miles. If I find a fishing boat approaching,
I will return our ship to space, and even if they find it, they will just think it is a mirage."
"Well, now that we're out here, let's catch more fish."
"Well, this time we'll catch more valuable fish and shrimp. We'll bring some seawater into the newly dug ten-acre pond in the space to raise fish, and we'll continue to use the villa swimming pool to raise lobsters and crabs."
"good."
Around nine o'clock, both children fell asleep. Lin Man changed their diapers to prevent them from peeing in bed.
Then he left the space alone, rode his bicycle to a more remote beach, emptied the sand from the beach into the newly dug pool, changed into his swimsuit and jumped into the sea. After swimming a hundred meters, he emptied the sea water into the pool again.
It took an hour to bring sand and water into the pool. Huo Qingci was worried to death when he saw that Lin Man didn't come in for a long time.
After the ten-acre pond was filled with sea water, Lin Man entered the space, released the hundred-ton fishing boat, turned on the automatic navigation mode, and then entered the space again.
Looking at the soaked Lin Man, Huo Qingci's eyes were filled with heartache. "Manman, are we at sea now?"
"Yes, we are indeed at sea now. I just entered the space from the ship. When I leave later, I will automatically return to the ship."
"Then hurry up and take a shower. We'll go out together when you're done."

"Yeah, I know. Tonight we'll just set up a few more traps to catch lobsters, haul in a couple more nets, and then rest. We'll go out fishing again tomorrow during the day."
"good."
It was half past eleven in the evening when the fishing boat finally arrived at the lobster fishing area. It took half an hour just to lower the cages. This time, Lin Man threw all the lobster cages on the boat into the seabed.
There are a total of three hundred large iron cages, each of which contains a piece of exotic animal meat that is the favorite of the sea creatures. Lin Man guessed that there will definitely be a big harvest tonight and the cages will burst.
After putting the cages in place, she dragged up two nets of fish from the nearby sea, then took Huo Qingci to sleep for five hours. When it was dawn and no one was around, she brought up the shrimp cages and brought the boat into the space.
After returning to the space, the two poured thousands of lobsters from the large iron cage into the swimming pool. Lin Man was happy to see the bottom of the crystal clear swimming pool filled with densely packed big lobsters.
"Qingci, if we eat one lobster a day, we will have enough to eat for a lifetime."
Huo Qingci smiled and shook his head. "If you eat lobster every day for a month, you'll feel like vomiting. I still prefer bamboo shrimp and mantis shrimp."
"Then we'll take some time during the day to catch other shrimp. Tonight we'll set out the cages again to catch abalone. Tomorrow we'll go catch yellow croaker... mackerel and grouper. The day after tomorrow we'll catch some miscellaneous fish and then go back."
Huo Qingci suddenly thought of his son who was still sleeping, and said, "Manman, go take a shower first. I have to go prepare breakfast. The children will probably wake up soon."
Fortunately, these two little guys usually sleep until around eight o'clock before getting up, otherwise they would have a lot of work to do.
Lin Man nodded, "Okay, then I'll go see if An An is awake. If he is, I can change his diaper and feed him for a while.
Qingci, when we return to the capital, we will wean An An off breast milk and let him drink formula instead."
"Yeah, then let's give An An some growing-up milk powder."
Lin Man walked into the bedroom and skillfully changed new diapers for the two children.
After changing his diaper, the eldest son continued to sleep soundly; after changing his diaper, the younger son slowly opened his eyes, stared at Lin Man's face, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
Lin Man's heart was instantly melted by this little guy, and she thought: My little son is simply a little angel! Baby, how can you be so cute!
"Baby, do you want to drink some milk? Then take a nap, okay?"
Huo Yining smiled sweetly, and as she smiled, a trace of saliva flowed from the corner of her mouth.
Lin Man quickly picked up a handkerchief and gently wiped the saliva from the baby's mouth. She said softly, "An An, wait a moment. Mommy will put a cute bib on you right away."
She couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. Her eldest child didn't drool much when he was half a year old, but why did the second child drool so much?
Could it be because he particularly likes to laugh? Lin Man pondered in her heart.
Lin Man, Huo Qingci and their child drifted on the vast ocean for three days and three nights.
During this period, the fishing boats' fish holds, cold storages, swimming pools, and even the newly excavated ten-acre pond were all filled with a variety of seafood.
It was not until the last night that they sailed back home.
When they finally got home, it was already ten o'clock in the evening. The exhausted couple and their children fell straight into a sweet sleep.
This trip to the sea was quite fruitful. Even if they enjoyed seafood delicacies every day, these mountains of seafood would probably be enough for their family to eat for a lifetime.
Moreover, there is only one month left before they return to Beijing.
In this last month, they decided to cherish every moment on this island.
