Le Wan didn't mind the stench at all. She grabbed the struggling yellow croaker with both hands and held it high up to show Le's father.
"Dad, look, we have yellow fish!"
Father Le could only smile stiffly and praise,
"He's worthy of being our baby, he's really amazing." After saying that, he turned around and looked at Le's mother with some resentment.
"Why do I feel like all the fish are going to Baby?"
Mother Le could only comfort him.
"Maybe the sea god thought the baby was cute and it was her first time fishing, so she took extra care of her. Let's not fight with her."
Generally, people worship the sea god near the sea, because many people make a living by fishing. Before I got on the boat, I heard the captain say that before going out to sea this morning, he specially worshipped the sea god to ensure that everything goes well today and that the harvest is fruitful.
People who do business are more or less superstitious. Although Father Le is not particularly interested in these things, he has become more or less used to them.
So, after hearing what his wife said, he began to mutter:
"If Poseidon really exists, please bless me."
When Mother Le heard him mumbling like this, she shook her head helplessly. He was fifty years old and still acted like a child. However, even though she didn't like him, she still loved him very much.
Maybe the sea god really heard their prayers. Papa Le's buoy began to move. His eyes lit up.
"Right here. Right here."
On the other side, Brother Le was feeling depressed. He saw that Le Wan had already caught two fish, but there was no movement on his side. Then he heard Father Le's excited voice and turned around to shout:
"Don't tell me you caught seaweed again!"
Finally, Father Le glared at him.
"Shut your mouth!"
Le Wan raised her hand.
"Dad, let me help you."
Then she picked up the fishing net and ran over.
Father Le was playing with the little guy in the water with a fishing rod. When he heard this, he said happily:
"Our baby is so considerate."
"I wonder what I can catch." Second Brother Le smacked his lips, put down his fishing rod, walked over and took the fishing net from Le Wan.
"Your arms are so weak, I don't know if you caught the fish or the fish caught you."
"Humph, I'm not that weak."
Le Wan made a disdainful face at him, but finally gave him the fishing net. It was rare for Le's father to catch fish, and he would be really sad if the fish ran away.
At first, Father Le was worried whether he had caught some fish, but when he heard the sound of the fishing line struggling, he was sure that he had caught a live fish. He smiled with relief.
"Then let's see what good stuff we can get."
The fishing line became shorter and shorter, and soon, a white wave appeared on the water surface.
Le Wan leaned her head out, squinted her eyes and looked carefully, and seemed to see a long silver ribbon.
“It looks like a ribbon fish.”
Father Le was a little disappointed after hearing this. If it were in the past, he might have been very happy to catch a fish, but Le Wan’s success was not enough for him.
Mother Le could only comfort him.
"This is a good start. It's great to catch a cutlassfish."
Dad Le could only comfort himself that the fishing rod would be better next time. Seeing that the fishing line was almost used up, he raised the fishing rod directly. The fishing line stirred up a splash of water and a silver-white light flashed in the air.
Father Le was about to reel in his fishing rod and throw the fish onto the deck when the captain, who was also watching the excitement, suddenly changed his expression and exclaimed:
"It's a sea snake!"
Sea snakes are extremely poisonous, and being bitten by them can be very dangerous!
When Father Le heard this, his hand trembled, and the fishing line swung in the air. The long silver-white object hooked by the fishhook tilted and hit the bow of the boat.
When Le Wan was a child, someone once teased her by putting a small vegetable snake the size of a finger in a box and placing it on her desk.
The snake crawled out of the crack in the box and coiled in the crack of her book. Le Wan didn't know what happened, and accidentally grabbed it when she reached into the box to take the book. Then, the snake bit her finger.
Fortunately, the snake was not poisonous, but Le Wan was still scared and cried.
As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, one will be afraid of the rope for ten years. Although Le Wan's condition was not that serious, the incident still left a shadow in her heart. Normally, even if she saw pictures or figures of snakes on TV, she would deliberately cover them up.
So when she heard that it was not a cutlassfish but a sea snake, her face turned pale and she immediately turned around and hugged Zhai Jingkai's arm. If you looked closely, you could see that her body was trembling.
Seeing how scared she was, Zhai Jingkai immediately carried her away from the bow.
"Don't be afraid, the snake uncle caught is not on the boat, so it won't come over."
On the other side, Le's mother, who knew that her daughter was afraid of snakes, immediately looked at Le Wan. Seeing this scene, her mouth opened wide, and she was stunned for a moment, feeling disappointed.
My daughter has grown up. When she encounters a problem, her first reaction is not to look for her mother, but to look for her boyfriend.
Children will always leave their parents' arms when they grow up, just like the eldest son and the second son who have long been independent. But Le Wan is different. As the only daughter in the family, she has always been taken care of by her father and mother.
So, when she saw her seeking a sense of security in Zhai Jingkai's arms, Le's mother still felt very lost.
But she also knew that Le Wan was already eighteen years old and this was unavoidable, so she felt sad for a moment and turned her head away.
This sea snake is very dangerous, but fortunately, Father Le stopped it in time and did not throw it onto the deck. Otherwise, if it had broken free on the deck, it would definitely attack people.
The sea snake is still on the hook, and whether you catch it or release it, someone has to get it off.
Father Le turned his gaze to Second Brother Le, but Second Brother Le kept shaking his head.
"Even though I'm Iron Man, I'm afraid of that thing."
Father Le really wanted to say that he couldn’t handle this matter either.
Fortunately, there was an experienced captain on the boat. He asked Dad,
"Do you want this sea snake?"
Father Le shook his head.
"I do not want."
"If you don't want it, give it to me," said the captain.
He estimated that the sea snake weighed about four or five kilograms. There were people on the shore who specialized in buying these things. If they could be sold, it would be worth a lot of money.
No one knew how the captain did it, he came to the bow with a snakeskin bag, hooked the bag, untied it, and stuffed it in. The sea snake had no time to struggle or resist before it was stuffed into the bag.
The captain also noticed that Le Wan was very afraid of snakes, so he considerately went around her, took the bag of snakes to the bottom of the cabin, and then locked it in a cage.
"Look, the captain has caught us, everything's fine." Zhai Jingkai patted Le Wan on the back.
Seeing that the crisis was over, Le Wan struggled out of Zhai Jingkai's arms in a somewhat embarrassed manner.
"sorry."
Zhai Jingkai shook his head to comfort her.
"It's a poisonous snake after all, so it's normal to be scared. I was also scared just now."
Second Brother Le pursed his lips. When he heard the word "sea snake", he immediately turned around and wanted to protect her. Unexpectedly, the girl threw herself into Zhai Jingkai's arms.
Like Le's mother, Le's second brother also had complicated feelings. He originally had no good feelings towards Zhai Jingkai, but now when he saw Zhai Jingkai, he still felt some hatred towards him.
"Seeing how calm you were just now, I thought you weren't afraid." He said deliberately.
Zhai Jingkai really wanted to say that he was not afraid.
