Chapter 823: Night Encounter with Needlefish Like Dumplings

Ye Mu went quickly and returned quickly. There was no happy expression on her face; it was plain and calm.

Ye Yaodong was soaking his feet and looked puzzled. However, before he could ask, his mother poured it out like beans.

"I don't know if it's sold or not. It's still at home. They only said someone wants it. When I asked him who bought it and how much it sold for, he just said the person hasn't come to take it yet, the money hasn't arrived, and it hasn't been settled. He said he'd know after it's sold."

"I don't know who it's sold to, whether it's reliable, and how much it sold for. He didn't even say. I don't know if he'll be cheated."

He rubbed his two feet together and said, "Together, the father and son are smarter than you alone, right? Why do you have to worry blindly?"

"Don't worry about how much it sells for. Anyway, it won't reach your pocket, so don't worry blindly. Ask again when it's sold. It hasn't been sold yet, so it shouldn't be easy to say. If this thing isn't sold and the money hasn't arrived, there are variables."

"Isn't this concern? I don't know if the buyer is reliable..."

Ye Mu nagged a few words casually. Seeing that the table was cleaned up and the bowls and chopsticks were washed, and there was nothing in the house that needed help, and the small fish brought back today were already being killed by A-Qing, and there weren't many, she left first.

Ye Yaodong also shouted at Ye Xiaoxi, asking her to take a foot-wiping cloth over to wipe his feet.

At this time, only she could be called, and the others wished their eyes could drill into the TV.

Ye Xiaoxi opened her big eyes and turned around the house like a headless fly. She didn't know where to find a rag.

"Under the table, a foot-wiping cloth is hanging under the table. Do you see it?" Ye Yaodong watched her wobbling around looking for it and reminded her with a smile.

After being reminded, her eyes focused, and she saw the cloth under the table. She hurriedly went over to take it and handed it to him.

"Then help me wipe my feet."

Looking at the feet that had been lifted from the water and stretched out in front of her eyes, she clumsily covered them with the cloth, pinched them twice on the feet with her small hands, and then pulled the foot-wiping cloth away.

"All done~"

Having done something she had never done before, her sweet, soft, milky voice sounded exceptionally excited.

"There's one more foot!"

She completed it in the same way. "Daddy, all done~"

"Alright, go watch TV. Give me the foot-wiping cloth."

"Wipe face?"

She seemed to be a little addicted to wiping and wanted to wipe his face with the foot-wiping cloth.

Ye Yaodong hurriedly turned his head to avoid it and snatched the rag from her hand. "Be good, I'll wash it myself. You go watch TV."

"Alright."

She patted her hands with some regret, and then happily jumped back to the old lady's side, squatted down, and watched TV with everyone.

Ye Yaodong looked at his two still-wet feet. He still had to do it himself; he couldn't count on his daughter for the time being.

"Dongzi!"

He looked outside the door. A pile of dogs was sniffing around A-Guang, who was stretching his legs to push those dogs away.

"Ah? Sold the fish?"

"Not yet. Said they'll come to take it later."

"The one just now?" Ye Yaodong raised his chin and said suggestively, "Was there any mention of how much money?"

A-Guang stretched out 5 fingers with a full face of smiles. "When they come to take it, give the fish with one hand and the money with the other."

"That's fine! High price, made a fortune!"

"Yes, so when they said it, I agreed immediately. People in the same village shouldn't play me for a fool. If they come to take it later, then they come to take it later. Anyway, it's already settled, so it's not like I'm short of this bit of time."

"They shouldn't tease you. At most, you'll just go to bed a little later."

They must be taking it to offer as a tribute to open up some channels. He dared to bet on it!

"Mm, I came over to borrow the camera. Borrow it so I can take a photo of the fish. Such a large large yellow croaker, I thought I'd take a photo to commemorate it."

"Alright, do you know how to use it?"

He actually wanted to take a photo the first time he saw it, but the camera was at home, and running back and forth was too troublesome. It just so happened that A-Guang delivered it to his door himself.

"No, you help me take it. Anyway, just wash one photo and give it to me later."

"Good."

Ye Yaodong put the towel aside casually and went into the house to get the camera without even pouring out the foot-washing water. A-Qing was killing fish at the back door and didn't know he had gone out.

It wasn't until Ye Chenghu shouted loudly that she went into the house to take a look.

"Look, little sister climbed into the washbasin herself to take a bath."

"Damn it, this dead child, where did your father die? He doesn't even know to pour out the foot-washing water..."

Lin Xiuqing's anger flared up instantly, and she directly lifted Ye Xiaoxi out of the washbasin.

She was still reluctant to come out and struggled, shouting, "Take a bath, take a bath..."

"Take a bath my head!"

She widened her eyes again and innocently touched her hair. "Wash hair?"

"That's your father's foot-washing water. Don't you know how smelly his feet are? Really, how many sets of clothes do I have to change all day long?" Lin Xiuqing said while patting her butt twice. If she didn't hit her, she would think she was praising her.

"Finding things for me to do all day long without anything to do. I didn't see her for a blink of an eye and she's making trouble. Where did your father die again? He just came back and disappeared again. Isn't he tired?"

Lin Xiuqing depressedly nagged and tidied up the child again, and then told the children not to just watch TV and to look after their little sister.

Ye Yaodong only knew after he came back from taking the photo that Ye Xiaoxi had taken another bath in the foot-washing water he hadn't poured out.

After he took off his clothes and got into bed, he caught the child and sniffed hard. "Let me smell and see, is it smelly? Is it a smelly child?"

Ye Xiaoxi giggled from being tickled by him, and the father and daughter rolled into a ball on the bed.

"Where did you take the camera?"

"A-Guang came over and called me over to take a photo of his large yellow croaker."

"You didn't even pour out the water first. Your daughter climbed into the washbasin to play with water, and her whole body is soaked."

"It's okay. When the weather gets hot, I'll take you swimming, okay?"

"Good~"

She shook her head helplessly. "You'd better go to sleep early. Good weather tomorrow, you have to go out to sea at night."

"Mm, going to sleep right away."

Lin Xiuqing also hugged the child out to watch TV first; otherwise, if she were there, he wouldn't be able to sleep well.

When Ye Yaodong got up at night, he felt exceptionally spirited. As soon as he got out of bed, he felt refreshed.

He felt that this was the feeling of being refreshed by happy events. Once he thought of the boxes on the seabed, his whole person was full of energy, and the sleepiness and fatigue of getting up early were gone. He went out to sea with high spirits.

A-Guang could pick up a large yellow croaker; there was no reason why those few boxes couldn't yield treasures. There must be good things waiting for him.

Although he couldn't cash them in for a while after getting them, at least picking them up meant they were his. It was happy to look at them. Even if he couldn't become rich directly, at least he was satisfied mentally.

Mental satisfaction was more important.

He hadn't even fished them up yet, and he didn't know what was in them, but he had already started fantasizing and getting excited.

Seeing him grinning from time to time as soon as he got on the boat, Ye Fu didn't know why he was in such a good mood.

If it weren't for the fact that the boat had already set out, the two boats were separated by some distance, and as they each started, the distance was getting wider and wider, he would definitely have asked two questions.

Ye Yaodong had already planned it. Like yesterday, after lunch, he would swap positions and get on his father's boat, and go into the water when the sun was high at noon, when the light was strong.

Both boats were sailing in the same direction, one in front and one behind, looking after each other, fighting side by side.

It was just that what the father and son didn't expect was that not far from the sea area where they were trawling, they were actually attacked by needlefish!

A small light bulb was hanging on the side of Ye Yaodong's boat cabin. The orange-yellow light attracted the needlefish that happened to pass by. These needlefish were really like a rain of pear blossoms, charging directly toward the boat.

He was originally sitting on a small stool, leaning against the small boat cabin, boredly blowing the sea breeze, when he saw them falling like dumplings. Suddenly, many needlefish fell from mid-air, smashing onto the deck with a patter.

It scared him so much that his butt moved backward, and the legs of the two small stools in front stood up, making his whole back stick to the boat cabin.

"Damn, what is that? Needlefish?"

With a clatter, the stool fell directly, and he also sat on the ground with a thud. A needlefish happened to fall into the empty space in front of his feet, scaring him into immediately retracting his feet, and then he stood up instantly and hurriedly moved to the side.

This damn thing, getting pierced would be terrible.

Bad luck, why did he run into this fish again? Why were they still in this area and hadn't left?

The eldest cousin was also startled while steering the boat. Turning his head and seeing fish jumping onto the boat continuously, he hurriedly stopped moving forward. These fish suddenly jumped in like dumplings; wasn't this like picking them up for nothing?

He also widened his eyes in surprise, extremely happy.

But after he looked carefully and saw they were needlefish, he couldn't be happy anymore. Dongzi had 400-plus jin of needlefish on his boat yesterday and had told them about the way they came last night.

Fortunately, no one was pierced. If someone was sitting there and they jumped up and pierced someone, that would be terrible.

After the boat stopped moving forward, Ye Yaodong looked toward his eldest cousin and incidentally walked over. It looked safer over there, and the headlight shone far, not shining nearby, so they wouldn't charge over.

"Dongzi, what's going on with these fish? Why did they all jump onto the boat suddenly?"

"This kind of fish is phototactic. I hung the light bulb too far outside earlier. These fish should have been attracted by the light, so they all jumped toward the boat."

"As long as people are fine, it's fine. I thought it was some kind of fish just now and was happy for a moment. Then let's stop for a while and see how many we can attract and how many jump up. It's also picking them up for nothing."

While the two were talking, the needlefish jumping onto the fishing boat never decreased, and the boat hull was also pierced by the needlefish, making a "de-de-de" sound. Those who didn't know would think there were woodpeckers on the sea.

Fortunately, this boat was made of iron, and with the impact of these fish, they couldn't pierce through.

Ye Fu's boat had been leading the way, but after sailing a short distance, he found that their boat had stopped in place, so he hurriedly turned back to check.

He thought something had gone wrong, but he didn't expect it to be needlefish again.

Separated by a short distance, looking at the light not far away, those fish kept jumping toward the boat, and he was also a bit dumbfounded.

Can you fish like this too? ===== CHAPTER 824 =====
