Xia Dongping smiled and said:
"Sister-in-law, my elder brother is right. We should not get involved in this matter. If we can't help at that time, and embarrass the two children, it will be troublesome!"
"Okay then! I just don't know if Ah Sheng has that intention."
"Don't worry, sister-in-law, I think it's almost certain. Besides, with Xiao Tao's conditions, why would he be unhappy?"
Xia Donghai was a little happy listening to the conversation between Xia Dongping and his wife.
During the time when Fu Chaosheng went fishing with him, Xia Donghai found that Fu Chaosheng was not only down-to-earth and hardworking, but also very sensible, and he was very measured in everything he did.
In fact, he had considered the matter between Xia Xiaotao and Fu Chaosheng a long time ago, but Xia Xiaotao was a little repulsive to Fu Chaosheng before, and he was afraid that Fu Chaosheng would not be willing, so he didn't mention it to him.
Xia Donghai thought that now it was good. If the two of them could really talk it out, wouldn't that be the result he hoped to see?
The next morning, Xia Donghai packed up and prepared to take Sun Yuwei and her brother out to sea to collect crab cages.
"Dad, I'm going too."
Xia Xiaotao said as she sat next to the driver's seat of Xia Donghai's three-wheeled motorcycle.
Xia Donghai originally thought that Xia Xiaotao would sleep until noon as usual, but he didn't expect her to get up so early today.
"What are you going to do?"
"Of course I'm going to make money. I don't have a job now, so I have to find something to support myself, right?"
"You've rarely been on a boat since you were a child, what can you do there? Besides, there's less food for you at home?"
"Oh, that's different. I'm going anyway. I want to make money."
Sun Yuwei and Sun Yuhang, who were sitting in the back of the car, also began to help Xia Xiaotao:
"Uncle, let Xiaotao go with us."
"Yes, uncle, let Xiaotao go with us to screw in the boat."
Xia Donghai heard the three people in the car yelling at him, and his head was big.
"Asheng has the final say on the boat now, and we don't know whether he wants you or not."
"Ah? No way, Dad, you really gave him the boat?"
"Then what else can I do? Will you give it to you? Your mom and I are old, and your mom is in poor health. If I don't give it to him, who else can I give it to?"
"Why are you so anxious, Dad? I just asked casually, why do I feel that you are more affectionate to your godson than to me, your own daughter?"
Xia Donghai knew that Xia Xiaotao was joking with him, so he ignored him.
Several people drove to the old courtyard in a three-wheeled motorcycle, and Fu Chaosheng was already standing on the street waiting at the door.
"What are you doing here?"
Fu Chao asked Xia Xiaotao, who was sitting next to Xia Donghai.
"I'm afraid you don't have enough manpower, so I'm here to help you with the work."
"Can you do it?"
Fu Chaosheng felt a little incredible when he saw Xia Xiaotao saying that she wanted to help him.
"You grew up in the north, and you have the nerve to question me?"
Xia Xiaotao retorted to Fu Chaosheng without any hesitation.
"Okay, since you want to go, let's go together."
Fu Chaosheng said, and then climbed onto Xia Donghai's three-wheeled motorcycle.
Xia Donghai drove the boat to the place where the octopus trap and crab cage were placed before.
"Asheng, is it here?"
Fu Chaosheng looked at the bottom of the sea after hearing Xia Donghai's words. The rope connecting the trap was hidden several meters below the sea surface.
"It's here, Dad, let's stop here."
Xia Donghai stopped the boat and began to use the hook to constantly test the bottom of the boat, but he still couldn't find the end of the rope after a long time.
"Let me do it, Dad."
"Okay, you know the location, try it."
Fu Chaosheng took the hook from Xia Donghai's hand and hooked up the rope tied to the glass bottle in one go.
"There are so many big ones..."
Sun Yuwei and Sun Yuhang saw Fu Chaosheng hook out the octopus trap and shouted "spell" in unison.
Xia Xiaotao laughed beside him. He knew that this was his father Xia Donghai's habit before collecting the nets. He didn't expect that Sun Yuwei and her brother had learned this.
"Stop making trouble, the three of you. Let's get to work."
Fu Chaosheng said as he began to pull the trap bottles onto the boat.
"Brother Chaosheng, it doesn't take three people to do this?"
"Then you three can take turns."
Because these bottles had been lying next to the island reef for two days, Fu Chaosheng was a little worried when he first collected them. Unexpectedly, he was so happy when the first trap bottle was pulled up.
Because there was a super large rocket squid squeezed in this bottle, its whole body filled the glass bottle.
Fu Chao handed the bottle to Xia Xiaotao to deal with and continued to collect the rope.
When the second bottle was pulled up, there was an octopus inside. Because its body was too big to fit in the bottle, two tentacles of the octopus were still exposed.
The third, the fourth, the fifth...
Fu Chaosheng collected more than a dozen bottle traps in a row, and none of them were empty.
"I can't do it anymore, I'm so tired!"
Xia Xiaotao, who had never done much physical work since childhood, collected more than 200 bottle traps in a row, and was already sweating profusely.
"Yuwei, come and take my place."
Xia Xiaotao said, handing the tools in her hand to Sun Yuwei next to her.
"Okay, leave it to me, Sister Xiaotao."
Sun Yuwei took the tools from Xia Xiaotao and continued to take out the octopus from the glass bottle that Fu Chaosheng had pulled up.
With Fu Chaosheng and Xia Xiaotao, Xia Donghai didn't do much today.
He sat at the stern and lit a cigarette, looking at the young people busy at the bow, with a look of relief on his face.
Xia Xiaotao, who was resting on the side of the bow, looked at Fu Chaosheng who was constantly pulling bottles from the sea to the boat, and felt that he seemed to never get tired and had endless strength.
Sun Yuwei collected about a hundred bottles, and then handed the tools to Sun Yuhang to continue working.
When all the more than 500 bottle traps were collected, the octopus had been caught for about 50 kilograms, and the rocket squid was about 20 to 30 kilograms.
"Asheng, take a break and eat something before working again."
Xia Donghai looked at Fu Chaosheng and said.
Fu Chaosheng saw that Xia Xiaotao and Sun Yuwei were a little tired, so he stopped temporarily.
"Okay, let's take a break for a few minutes before collecting the crab cages."
Fu Chaosheng was about to take a break when he heard the system's voice in his ears:
"System task: Capture 100 kilograms of long-legged orchid crabs, limited to 2 hours, successful task reward 20,000 Poseidon experience points, failed task, the host has 50 pimples, and the timer starts."
"50?"
Fu Chaosheng thought to himself, if I have 50 pimples, is it still a face?
Although Fu Chaosheng usually doesn't care much about these things, 50 pimples are indeed a bit scary. If he fails to complete the task and others see him with 50 pimples on his face, they will definitely think he has some problems. He will never allow this to happen to him.
But that's what he said, but there were only more than 200 crab cages placed the day before yesterday. If he follows his experience of catching crabs last time, I'm afraid that the maximum is only about 80 kilograms, and there may be other crab species in this 80 kilograms. If you only count the orchid crabs, 50 kilograms is already very good.
