Chapter 346: Seabed Fishing

"Good fellow, not few! How long did you go down? The whole net is full."

"Before going down, shaking east and shaking west was not looking for sea cucumber, or looking for small green dragon, or looking for ground cages, the last bit of time went to dig abalone to fill the net bag, today directly went to that piece of pen shell, time didn't waste at all."

Ye Yaodong said while helping to pull up that full bag of pen shells.

Ye Fu happily untied the net bag, picked one at random, it was as big as his palm, the shape was like a winnowing basket, most of them were bigger than the palm.

He weighed it, "This one is almost seven or eight taels, is there a lot below?"

"Still okay, that piece can collect a thousand jin."

Ye Fu was happy, "That's not bad, there should be more nearby."

"Not clear, no time to stroll around, clear this piece first."

Actually, this pen shell meat is extra delicious in late autumn and winter, now in May the weather is gradually hot, the taste is not good.

However, in the cold weather, he didn't want to go into the water, and didn't have the hobby of winter swimming, one bad thing and he would catch a cold. Now that he found it, definitely pull them all up now.

"Hmm, pour into the basket first, empty the net bag."

Father and son worked together to pour the goods into the basket, a sound of rustling, just right full basket.

Ye Yaodong's wet clothes stuck to his body, a bit uncomfortable, he pulled the clothes on his chest, and twisted the sleeves and trouser legs.

"How about, I go into the water later? Take turns, someone replaces, you can also be relaxed, take a breath while free."

He thought about it and refused, his father didn't understand this, easy to have accidents, better not let him toss.

"No need, I'll rest for a while, this has to dive ten meters deep, not playing. Don't need you, I'm very familiar, you didn't bring clothes, get wet all over later, how uncomfortable."

Saying that, he simply took off his clothes and pants and twisted them, then threw them aside, only wearing shorts and naked sitting on the ground.

"Teach me then? Take turns, high efficiency."

"Wait until free time, now no time to teach."

Ye Yaodong perfunctorily said two sentences, after resting enough, he put on the wet clothes, then put the equipment on his body, preparing to dive down for the second trip.

Jumping down from this position reaches the seabed pen shell directly, don't even need to look for it, and don't need to dive so deep, saved a bit of trouble.

After falling to the pen shell cluster, he immediately seized the time to start work.

Repeated four or five trips intermittently, he didn't go into the water anymore, too tired, took off his clothes and lay on the boat sunbathing in a big character.

Ye Fu also said, "Can't eat, rest, don't go into the water anymore."

"Hmm."

"I'll cook a few pen shells for you to eat, replenish physical strength."

"Hmm?" Ye Yaodong turned his head to look at his father in surprise.

Ate the wrong medicine?

Used to be such a stingy person, couldn't bear to leave any seafood back, now actually could take the initiative to say cook a few for him to eat?

Did he hear wrong?

"You cook pen shells for me?"

"Hmm, this pot is small, cook four is almost enough." Ye Fu said while picking a few small ones from the basket.

"Why suddenly so willing, so good to me." He put his hands behind his head, looking at his father curiously.

Ye Fu washed casually with clear water, said with annoyance, "Still counting on you to do more work, eat something to recover physical strength faster, have to catch cuttlefish later."

Alright!

Thought his father found conscience, willing to eat and drink.

After all four pen shells were cooked, he let his father eat two, and cook again later.

"I won't eat, you eat yourself, I still have bird eggs, just fill the stomach, fool it."

"Don't, eat together, eat to have strength to work, can't let me work alone."

Stuffed two to his father, he peeled the shell of the pen shell himself.

The adductor muscle of the pen shell is quite similar to the scallop meat, just the appearance is very different.

If you don't look at the outer shell, estimated even the garlic vermicelli that often appears with them can't figure out who is the one on the dining table with itself.

The adductor muscle of the pen shell is relatively long, the shape is like a broad bean, also called "long belt". And the scallop's adductor muscle is close to circular, called "round belt".

Ye Yaodong bit the adductor muscle into his mouth and chewed, fresh is quite fresh, the taste is also very chewy, just worse than the one fished in winter, but also okay, people now are not so particular.

Its outer shell is super big, just after being cooked the meat shrinks, and this white-boiled doesn't have the taste of garlic vermicelli scallion oil.

Ye Fu re-boiled 4 pen shells in the pot, then peeled the ones Ye Yaodong left for him.

"Very fresh!"

"Winter's is better to eat."

"Then come again in winter?"

"Then come again, you go into the water?"

"Didn't you say not to teach me?"

"When did I say not to teach?"

Old bones, still diving, this diving sport is still relatively easy to be addicted to, now seabed goods are many.

Ye Fu besides wanting to help reduce his labor, also curious about the seabed.

Seeing him bring back good things from the seabed every time, also a bit itchy to want to go down and see, what the seabed is like, is there anything else?

After finishing the pen shells cooked in the pot, they also ate three bird eggs by the way, Ye Fu drove the boat to the buoy where the branches were placed.

Although each ate 4 pen shells, but there was only one adductor muscle inside, meat not big, only enough for their adult strong laborers to fill teeth gaps.

As for not cooking a few for the two brothers-in-law to send? Problem not big, also not rare things, not worth running a trip specially, leave a bit to eat when going back is also the same.

Taking advantage of Ye Fu driving the boat, Ye Yaodong went to the boat cabin to change into dry clothes, father and son started a new round of labor.

Until the sun set, they still couldn't bear to leave, finally got two more nets, until Xiao Xiao and A Zheng came to call them, they had to pick up Lin Xiang Hui and Lin Xiangrong to leave.

"Hey? Changed people today? Didn't bring father-in-law and mother-in-law, changed to two big brothers-in-law?"

Both big brothers-in-law smiled awkwardly.

Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes at them, really can't speak.

"Father-in-law and mother-in-law couldn't rest assured of the work in the field and went back first..."

"Hey? What is that you picked?"

Ye Yaodong hadn't finished speaking, was interrupted by A Zheng, he just happened to see the small bucket they lifted onto the boat.

"What?"

Ye Yaodong also saw it, curiously picked it up and looked at it, everywhere was a gap, incomplete and broken-looking.

"This is sunfish skin?"

"We also don't know what, saw it and felt a bit rare so picked it back, anyway doesn't take up space." Lin Xiang Hui said with a smile.

Ye Fu also took it to identify, "Is sunfish skin, don't know where it was washed from."

"Maybe it's the one we just met. This skin is very thick, and very elastic, can take it back for children to wrap into a ball to play." Ye Yaodong also touched the fish skin and said.

"That's good, can be a toy for them."

"Hmm, boys don't like playing ball, wrapping into a ball is also simple."

"Dongzi, where did you fish that pen shell? So many?" Xiao Xiao had already seen and wanted to ask, just before two boats didn't dock too close, talking was not convenient.
