Chapter 242 Going to Coconut Island
Chapter 242 Going to Coconut Island
Fu Wan was woken up in the morning by the sound of two children running around.
Ever since Qin Mingzhu came into the family, Fu Ling has become more cheerful than before. He likes to pull Qin Mingzhu along in everything he does. The two of them play kickboxing, write, and play hide-and-seek together.
This time, the two did not go out to look for Ye Xiaocui as they did before. Fu Wan was woken up and was surprised to find that the rain had stopped.
"Mom, you're finally awake!"
Fu Wan rubbed her eyes and stretched.
I picked up the watch next to me and saw that it was exactly seven o'clock.
"Mom, grandma and grandpa are not at home!"
Fu Wan understood, "They must have gone to the beach to catch seafood."
When Fu Ling heard this, she was so angry that she couldn't leave out the sea fishing. She hurriedly urged Fu Wan, "Mom, hurry up, I want to go sea fishing too!"
Fu Wan responded, but before she could even brush her teeth, she was dragged outside by Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu.
She hadn't been to the beach for a long time, and when she got there she was startled by the people on the beach.
It was no exaggeration to say that she felt that the entire village was already at the beach.
What's the point of rushing? Not to mention the crabs, even the crab shells will be picked up.
At this moment, Ye Xiaocui and Fu Lao Da came over from not far away, each carrying a bucket.
"I said you came out with two children, go back, there's nothing to pick up here."
Ye Xiaocui carried the bucket and urged Fu Wan and the others to go back. Fu Wan leaned over to take a look. Although there was a harvest in the bucket, it was just a pile of clams and a few mantis shrimps.
Boss Fu had three fist-sized blue crabs.
"There are too many people on the beach. There's nothing to pick up. Let's go back first."
Boss Fu walked in front carrying a bucket, taking big and fast steps.
Fu Wan knew what he meant, so when Fu Ling felt a little lost, she leaned over and whispered to him.
"Go back and pick up your shovel, we're going out to sea today!"
Going out to sea?
Fu Ling's face immediately turned from gloomy to bright. She still remembered her collection of beautiful shells, which she picked up when she went out to sea with her mother!
Not long after everyone went back, Fu Ming came back with a bucket and tools.
It has to be said that they are father and son. He and Boss Fu had the same harvest, only catching two crabs.
"Don't even mention it. The aunties rushed over to grab the clams on the rocks like they were robbing them. I was too embarrassed to squeeze in."
Clams have little meat and large shells, so he thought about it and gave up.
Ye Xiaocui poured the crabs into a small bucket and placed it in a cool place in the kitchen.
"Then hurry up and pack up. I'll make some pancakes and we'll go out to sea after we finish eating."
"Mom, just spread out a few sheets for breakfast, and we'll cook lunch on the boat!"
The pancakes rolled out now will be very dry by noon. It is better to take some noodles out and put some clean seafood in them. They will be delicious and fresh.
Fu Ming was the first to nod in agreement. "Mom, that bread gets stuck in my throat when I take it out for lunch. I'm afraid I'll choke to death."
Ye Xiaocui rolled her eyes and said, "Pah, pah, pah, what are you talking about!"
I've been eating pancakes for so many years, and now I have a blockage in my throat?!
If you don’t want to bring it, then don’t bring it.
Ye Xiaocui made the potato pancakes for the morning just as Fu Wan had done before.
Boss Fu thought for a moment, went into the house, took out two dollars, and stuffed them into Fu Ming's pocket.
"Go to the village shop and buy some noodles. Bring them on board later."
Fu Ming responded and winked at Fu Wan who was packing things nearby.
"Awan, go pick some vegetables in the backyard. You can throw some into the noodles you cook for lunch."
He was really hurt by eating meat all day yesterday.
I went to the toilet several times last night.
Fu Wan agreed with a smile, turned around and picked up the basket next to her to go to the backyard to pick vegetables.
Add some green onions to the seafood noodles to make them more fragrant.
It was eight o'clock when everyone finished breakfast. Fu Liang and Jiang Chunlan came over with their seagoing tools after locking the door. Coincidentally, Fu Lao Da's family had also packed up, so the two families took their seagoing gear and headed to the dock in a mighty procession.
On the way, many villagers were just returning home after going to the sea. Seeing Boss Fu and his men preparing to go out to sea, they couldn't help but greet them.
"Xiao Cui Chunlan, you guys go out to sea!"
Ye Xiaocui and Jiang Chunlan nodded in response, "Yes, we haven't been out to sea for a few days, so we went out to try our luck."
The villagers were envious. "Your shipping is always good. I'll go to the dock tonight and take a look at your seafood!"
Ye Xiaocui laughed, "You guys have quite a good harvest from the sea, look at this huge bucket!"
When the aunt talked about the harvest in her bucket, her back straightened a little.
"Of course not! I'll be out as soon as the rain stops at four!"
At four o'clock, Fu Wan and Fu Ming couldn't help but click their tongues. He was a werewolf, even more cruel than a cruel man.
It's already eight o'clock and the aunt has just returned.
And I came out as soon as the rain stopped. I'm afraid I didn't get much sleep tonight, just waiting for the rain to stop.
Alas, that’s how fishermen are. If you want to earn more, you have to work harder.
After a few pleasantries, everyone arrived at the dock. Old Li was helping a boat tie up its chains before it went out to sea. Seeing Fu Wan, everyone could only nod as a greeting.
Boss Fu also nodded in response. Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu could already recognize their own boat. The two little girls rushed onto the deck carrying their own buckets.
Boss Fu checked the diesel engines of the two ships and found no problems, then went to the cabin to check the diesel that had just been prepared.
Since the family's finances are not so tight, they usually prepare two barrels of diesel when going out to sea, in case something happens and they need to stay at sea for a longer time.
After making sure that there was no problem with the diesel engine, Boss Fu took out the crank from the cabin, aimed it at the diesel engine's swivel port, and started to exert force.
Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu watched him shaking faster and faster. As a cloud of black smoke rose, the diesel engine rumbled to life.
Fu San happened to be receiving goods at the dock at this time. When he saw Boss Fu and his crew's boat starting up, he became even more excited about the harvest they would bring back.
The two boats slowly sailed away from the dock one after the other. On Boss Fu's side were Fu Wan and Ye Xiaocui, and on Fu Ming's side were Fu Liang and Jiang Chunlan.
"Dad, let's go to Coconut Island first!"
Coconut Island is the island where you catch coconut crabs. The reason we go there is because there is a large area of mudflats on the beach. It rained yesterday, so there must be a lot of things on the beach.
Boss Fu agreed immediately. After all, the day had just begun and there was still time to go to Coconut Island and then to Bird's Nest Island.
With a target in mind, the boat sailed faster. Not long after, Fu Wan, standing on the deck, saw the silhouette of Coconut Island.
Boss Fu slowed down the boat and slowly approached the seashore. Fu Ling and Qin Mingzhu were excited and couldn't wait to get off the boat.
"Awan, look what that is?!"
Ye Xiaocui exclaimed, and Fu Wan looked in the direction she pointed.
Maybe because of the rain and wind, the rocks on the beach are a bit messy at the moment.
The key is not the reef, the key is that there are a lot of black and green things hanging on the reef, one after another.
That's clearly kelp!
