It's another beautiful day! During the two days at sea, the fishing boat has been drifting on the ocean, and Chen Zhiyao hasn't been sleeping well on the boat.
When I got home, I started yawning before 10 o'clock.
Once I got to my familiar big bed at home, I fell asleep the moment my head hit the pillow, and my soft snoring started as soon as I lay down.
The gentle sound of the waves was like a lullaby, and Chen Zhiyao slept soundly.
The next morning, she woke up to the sound of scratching at the door.
Although Chen Zhiyao was awake, she didn't want to move and remained lying in bed, unwilling to get up.
But the two little ones outside the door were getting more and more anxious.
"Awoooooo..."
"Woof woof woof..."
Opening the door, you'll see Ah Huang and Xue Tuan's adorable smiling faces. The two little guys are tilting their heads and grinning foolishly, they're absolutely adorable.
No one in this world can resist a puppy's head tilt.
"Good morning, Ah Huang and Xue Tuan!"
Seeing the two adorable little ones, Chen Zhiyao's morning grumpiness vanished. She gently rubbed one of their little heads with one hand, feeling completely healed.
"Woof woof woof...^0^"
"Awoooooo...?"
Ah Huang and Xue Tuan were extremely excited when they saw Chen Zhiyao. They pounced on her from both sides, almost knocking her over.
After not seeing him for two days, my dog has become noticeably more clingy.
She suddenly felt like a parent who had gone out to work, while the two little ones were pitiful left-behind children.
These two left-behind children are quite robust, and the love they receive is too heavy a burden.
"It's such a pity that Grandma doesn't raise pigs."
After playing with the two little ones for a while, Chen Zhiyao got up to wash her face and brush her teeth.
As soon as she came out of the bathroom, she saw her parents yawning as they came out of their room.
Even my usually most diligent mom woke up late; it seems everyone was quite exhausted after the trip at sea.
Thinking back to how I've been busy every day since I came back to the village to become a fisherman, it seems like I haven't had a proper rest yet.
Finally, the fishing ban season arrived, and she planned to do nothing but sleep for a few days first.
As soon as Chen Zhiyao came downstairs, she saw her grandparents carrying buckets of water into the house.
The elderly couple didn't sleep much, and they had just returned from going to the beach.
"Grandpa and Grandma, you're up way too early! You're already back from beachcombing."
Grandpa Chen put down the bucket of water he was carrying and said with a kind expression:
"I'm getting old and can't sleep, unlike you young people who are sleep-deprived all the time."
"Grandpa, you and Grandma are still young. When you go out, people will think you are my dad's older brother and sister."
"You're always saying nice things," Grandma Chen said, her face crinkling with laughter.
"Hehe, that's the truth~" Chen Zhiyao said happily as she came over and looked into the bucket.
In Grandma Chen's bucket were two blue crabs, as well as small, inexpensive shellfish such as mussels, clams, and white clams.
Grandpa Chen's bucket contained about half a bucket of oysters and more than a pound of whelks.
"Today's catch doesn't seem very good. Are there many people going beachcombing today?"
As Grandma Chen tidied up, she said softly, "There are so many people out there that there are probably more people going to the beach than seafood."
"But that's normal. It's the fishing ban period now, so people can't go out to sea to fish. They can only go beachcombing."
At this moment, Grandpa Chen sighed and brought up:
"Catching the sea is fine, but fishing is really crowded. The pier and other places where you can fish are all packed with people."
The old man had originally planned to go fishing later, but he didn't expect there were no spots available.
After breakfast, Chen Zhiyao comfortably lay on the sofa playing on her phone.
She still has so many variety shows and novels she's been following that she hasn't watched yet; today, no one can separate her from her phone.
Ideals are beautiful, but reality is harsh.
She had only been lying down for less than 10 minutes when her father excitedly pulled her up.
"Tangtang, let's go fishing by the breakwater."
"Dad, don't you get tired of fishing every day?" Chen Zhiyao lazily lay back down, not wanting to go fishing at all.
Fishing is fun, but you can't fish every day. I finally have a break, and now I have to go fishing again; it feels like I'm working overtime.
Chen Weiqiang immediately opened the fishing group chat, then pulled out a picture of a red-spotted fish and showed it directly to his daughter:
"Look, this is a message from the group chat. Someone caught a red-spotted fish weighing over ten kilograms on the breakwater early this morning."
"There might be other red-spotted fish in the sea. Let's hurry over before someone else catches them all."
Chen Zhiyao, who had just lain back down on the sofa, widened her eyes upon seeing the red-spotted fish in the photo and immediately sat up.
"It really is a red-spotted fish. Although it's not as exaggerated as ten or twenty pounds, it must be seven or eight pounds. Let's go and take a look."
This time, Chen Zhiyao was even more excited than her father. For the sake of a little money, she volunteered to work overtime.
Yan Shuting, who was sweeping the living room, immediately dropped her broom and ran over when she heard about the red-spotted fish.
"Red-spotted fish? Where can I find red-spotted fish?" With that, she snatched the phone from her daughter's hand.
After quickly skimming through the messages in the group chat, Yan Shuting said with great enthusiasm:
"Let's go, let's hurry over to the breakwater."
Of course, she couldn't forget her grandfather when something like this happened, so Chen Zhiyao quickly called him over.
As for Grandma Chen, the old lady has rheumatism in her legs and is not very mobile. We would never dare to let her go to dangerous places like breakwaters.
Before leaving home, the thrifty Chen Weiqiang even made a special call to Xiao Li at the store.
Tell him to immediately bring a batch of fishing gear and bait that red-spotted fish like to set up a stall.
The news that there are red snapper on the breakwater has already spread, and there must be a lot of anglers fishing there. Maybe they can make a fortune.
Chen Zhiyao couldn't help but admire, "Dad, you're really amazing. You're a born businessman."
"That's right. Although I'm not as good at fishing as you, I'm way better at business than you."
"Amazing! Amazing!"
"Alright, stop bragging and let's get going."
Seeing the father and daughter still praising each other, Yan Shuting quickly pulled them out of the house.
Before heading to the breakwater, Chen Weiqiang drove his family's van to the shrimp pond near the old house.
Grandpa Chen and Chen Zhiyao expertly scooped shrimp from the shrimp pond.
The shrimp that were originally of medium size have now grown into large shrimp, but the number of these large shrimp in the shrimp ponds is decreasing day by day.
Grandpa Chen felt it was time to release a new batch of shrimp larvae, otherwise he would soon run out of bait.
The grandfather and grandson caught three or four pounds of large shrimp, and then the whole family set off for the breakwater in a great hurry.
The stones beneath the breakwater provide a wonderful habitat for fish in the sea.
Many delicious and valuable sea fish live below.
Despite the slippery moss and sharp oysters and clams covering the ground, it didn't stop anglers from flocking to the fishing spot.
When the four arrived at the breakwater, almost every fishing spot was crowded with people.
