Chapter 440 Rain or Fish?

"What was that just now? Is it really a fish?"

Ye Yaodong looked out the window through the glass and saw nothing. The rain hit the window and made a crackling sound from time to time. He suspected that it was the sound of rain hitting the window just now.

"I didn't see it!" Father Ye and Mother Ye also said in unison with their heads stretched out.

Lin Xiuqing held the quilt in her hands and said quickly: "It's a fish. I saw it. I just walked out of the room and saw a fish hit the window."

"I'll open the door and go out to take a look. Dad, please come over later and help close the door." Ye Yaodong said and put the raincoat he had just taken off on himself.

"I'll go out and take a look too."

It was right in front of the house. There was no danger. Father Ye also wanted to see what kind of fish had hit the window. He also put on his raincoat and squeezed through the crack of the door. He turned to Mother Ye and said, "Close the door. It's windy outside. Don’t go out…”

Before he finished speaking, he heard Ye Yaodong's voice of surprise, "Ah, it's a male fish!"

Father Ye also hurried forward happily, "Is this brought here by the typhoon?"

"Maybe it was picked up by the waves and then blown up by the wind."

Ye Yaodong smiled so hard that he held the dying fish in his hands, and Father Ye happily reached out and took it from his hand.

"It could hit your door. There must be a lot of fish on the beach. The waves were too big today. People in the village also picked up a lot of fish, shrimps and crabs this morning."

"Take it in first, the wind is too strong..."

"Well, go in first, go first...ahhhh~Dongzi~"

The father and son happily planned to go inside first, but Father Ye saw another strong gust of wind coming, and a parabola also appeared next door.

"ah?"

Father Ye was not sure what it was for a moment. It was dark, and he only saw a black shadow flying by. "It seems like something flew to the door of your second brother's house."

Ye Yaodong was pleasantly surprised. He also thought of fish, "Is it fish again?"

"I don't know, I didn't look carefully. I'll give you the fish. You take it in and I'll go over and take a look..." Father Ye couldn't help but stuff the fish to Ye Yaodong, and then walked towards the entrance of the courtyard while mumbling, "What kind of wall should we build?" ? It's obviously right next door, but you still have to take a detour to take a step... and it's a waste of money..."

Ye Yaodong watched his father walking out hurriedly with Bao Gongyu in his arms, and he also wanted to go and have a look.

Turning around, he quickly knocked on the door and threw the fish in through the crack of the door. He also walked out of the yard despite the wind and rain, only to see his father bending down at the door of the yard, with heavy rain hitting his back. He was three or four meters away. The tide surged up far away on the ground, then receded.

He walked up and shouted, "What did you pick up? Sea cucumbers, are they all caught up?"

Father Ye was beaming with joy, holding a thick sea cucumber and two big hairy clams, "It's such a big one, there are several of it. I was in such a hurry when I came here that I didn't pay attention to my steps."

"Go over and take a look and go home early."

It was not convenient to talk while standing in the wind and rain. After Ye Yaodong said something casually, he quickly ran to the door of his second brother's house. The weak candlelight from the house illuminated the red fish at the door, which was particularly pleasing to the eye.

Ye Yaodong's eyes lit up and he quickly walked forward and picked up the big red fish. Father Ye followed closely behind.

"Ah! This fish is great!"

"It doesn't rain in vain."

He held the fish and looked at the beach not far away. The sight of the waves there made him feel itchy. Those waves that were higher than the previous layer must have brought a lot of good things.

But when the typhoon stops tomorrow, it may be slowly swept back into the sea by the high waves, and only a little remains after the tide recedes.

Pity……

Father Ye followed his line of sight and looked towards the beach. The waves there rolled over and then retreated. He was also a little moved, "Forget it, go home quickly."

The waves are so big, don’t catch yourself.

Ye Yaohua heard Ye Chenghai yelling that there were two people at the door, so he went to the window and took a look and found that there were really people.

There is a typhoon and heavy rain. Who is still standing at the door?

After careful identification, he realized it was his father and younger brother. He quickly opened a crack in the window and shouted, "Dad, Dongzi, what are you doing outside?"

The father and son were about to go home, turned around, looked around, and stepped forward again.

Ye Yaodong raised the red fish in his hand towards him, "I just saw a fish blown by the typhoon to your door, so I ran over to pick it up."

"ah?"

Ye Yaohua looked at the red fish weighing about three or four kilograms in his hand with a confused look on his face. He couldn't believe it. Is this okay?

Can it still be scraped this far?

He looked at the sea again. He couldn't see clearly, but the sound of rolling waves was right next to his ears. It didn't seem to be that far away?

On typhoon days, the tide must be higher than ever before. It seems normal that the waves will bring up the fish and then be blown to the doorstep by the typhoon.

"Why did dad come here? When did he come here?"

"I've just been here for a while. Dongzi and your elder brother went over. If you ask me and your mother to come over, please close the doors and windows. It's windy and rainy outside, so we're going back."

"good."

When his father was about to close the window, Ye Chengjiang pushed the window open again, stretched his head in a hurry and shouted: "No, third uncle, there are fish at the door of our house, are there more at the beach?"

"Are you looking for money?" Ye Yaodong said angrily, "Yes, you can't go either. Are you going to die? Just stay at home."

"Just at the doorstep..."

Ye Yaohua didn't wait for Ye Chengjiang to finish speaking, then pressed his head and pushed him in, "You are there everywhere, just stay at home and don't want to go anywhere. In this typhoon, no one dares to run out. You A child has such a wild heart..."

As he spoke, he quickly closed the window to prevent the rain from pouring in and the candles being blown by the wind.

"Everyone has tasted the sweetness and is dying..."

"What do you mean?" Father Ye looked at him doubtfully.

"Nothing, I'm going back." Ye Yaodong took the first step holding the red fish in his hands.

Father Ye just casually said who he was without worrying about it, and quickly followed him.

But just as he walked to the door of his yard, a wave of water was pushed up again. The aftermath of the sea water was only three or four meters away from him. He saw a bunch of beating silver-white fish pushed up by the tide and stranded on the beach. On the beach.

The silvery white color was particularly conspicuous at night, and he suddenly couldn't walk again.

He is such a perceptive person!

To him, fish is money!

He is a common man who loves money, a common man who runs around for three meals a day.

Father Ye also followed his line of sight and said anxiously, "Why don't we get too close?"

"Are you really going to face such a heavy storm?"

He didn't want to be a short-lived ghost anymore. Going out to sea during a typhoon last year was enough to be fatal. Having such an experience was enough.

Father Ye looked into the distance and thought for a moment, "Don't get too close. Stay away. It's right in front of the house. Don't get close to the waves. Pick up whatever you can. Just wait for the tide to come to your door. Be careful not to be knocked down by the waves. Pick it up." Go home soon."

Ye Yaodong thought for a while, his father said so, so it would be prudent to be careful, right?

He nodded, "Then just pick up some. If the waves get big or the typhoon blows too hard, go home quickly."

"Go back and get me a headlamp, and you can get a flashlight."

"Well, by the way, let Ah Qing bring out two buckets."

In the house, Mother Ye stood by the window and saw the father and son standing at the door. It was windy and rainy outside, so she came in without knocking for a long time, so she opened a crack in the window and called them.

"Still not coming in? It's so windy outside..."

"There are a lot of fish coming from the waves outside. Dad said to pick them up at the door. You take two buckets out and grab a headlamp. My dad said I need a headlamp."

This was obviously going to be scolded, so of course he had to point out that it was his father's idea and it was his father who took the blame. Of course, his father had to take the blame.

Mother Ye's eyes widened, "What? It's such a strong wind, heavy rain, and big waves. You don't want your life, and you still run to the beach..."

Father Ye quickly explained, "I didn't go to the beach, it was just at the entrance of the courtyard."

He also handed the sea cucumber and the big hairy clam in his hand to Ye Mu through the crack of the window.

Ye Yaodong also brought the red fish in his hand to his mother to see, "Look, I just picked it up at the door. We promise not to run ahead. Money is not as important as life."

Mother Ye opened her mouth in surprise and looked at the big red oil fish and sea cucumbers and clams in their hands, and she was also a little shaken.

"Then...then you must stay at the door and don't run too far. The wind and waves are so strong, come in soon, otherwise the wind will get stronger and stronger later..."

"Understood, we are at the entrance of the courtyard and don't wander around."

"It's so dangerous, don't go." The old lady was very worried after hearing this. The sound of wind, rain and waves became louder and louder, but the father and son were reluctant to come in. Wasn't this deliberately making her worried?

"It's right in front of the house. We don't dare to go far. We'll come in soon." Ye Yaodong coaxed.

"Why are you, father and son, so disobedient on this typhoon day?"

Father Ye said impatiently: "Don't worry, just stay in the house. We are not children. I told you it is right at the door, not too far away."

The old lady's brows were wrinkled more than her skin. Seeing that the two of them didn't listen to her, she had no choice but to say: "There is a straw rope at the door. You tie one end to your waist and the other to the door handle of the courtyard, so as not to see anyone. The fish moves farther and farther away and is swept away by the waves. If it is not long enough after tying it, just pick it up yourself and don't make it too long. If you don't tie it, don't go and come in quickly."

The father and son looked at the straw ropes piled in the corner, and the corners of their mouths twitched. The old lady had indeed eaten more salt than they had eaten, and they could all imagine this.

But they also felt that it would be safer to tie them up. After all, the wind and rain were so strong, and it was dark, and people were almost blown away. It was really possible to be so excited that they walked away without realizing it.

"I got it, go get a bucket and a headlamp."

The father and son also obediently went to the corner to get the straw rope. Although it is said that the bigger the waves, the bigger the fish, but they still have to survive, so it is better to listen to the old man's words.

Those straw ropes were those that Ye Mu used to rub when she had nothing to do and put them there for her brothers to spare. Before there was no yard, they were always piled at the door. After he had a yard, he piled them in his yard to prevent others from stealing them. Got it.

The father and son had a funny rope tied around their waists. They tied it to a length of eight or nine meters and tied it to the doorknob of the courtyard entrance. They felt that this length was almost enough. If it were longer, the waves would easily hit them.

Ye Yaodong looked at the big black dog that was tied to the entrance of the courtyard and kept poking its head in front of his den. He felt that the father and son seemed to be treated the same as it?

"What are you looking at? After tying it up, quickly look around to see if there are any valuable sea cucumbers or other fish? Oh, yes, what kind of fish was caught by the waves just now? It doesn't look small, and I don't know if it's another fish. Swept back by the waves.”

"Just go and take a look and you will know..."

Just as the father and son closed the courtyard door and were about to walk outside, a strong gust of wind blew by, bringing with them a large amount of rain. The two were stopped for a moment by the wind and rain, turned their backs, and closed their eyes in discomfort.

But something unknown suddenly fell from the sky and hit both of their heads. The back of their heads also hit the door panel of the courtyard, making a crackling sound.

"what?"

The two instinctively touched their heads and backs, and then looked down at the ground.

Just one glance and they were pleasantly surprised.

"Pompano!?"

"White pomfret? Damn it? Big white pomfret?"

The light of the flashlight and the light of the headlamp shone on the ground at the same time. In the light, there were wisps of rain, and the few large white pomfrets on the ground around them were particularly eye-catching.

"Holy crap, the silvery-white fish I saw pushed up by the waves before was a big white pomfret?"

Father Ye was also very pleasantly surprised and hurriedly followed him to pick it up. "Fortunately, I didn't go directly into the house just now. Hurry up and pick it up..."

Another gust of wind swept past, and this time the father and son clearly saw the silver-white parabola in mid-air, and heard the sound of falling.

"ah!"

Both of them exclaimed, their eyes widening.

"Is it raining or fishing?"

"Or pomfret? There must have been a wave of fish caught up in the waves..."

Father Ye was so happy that he hadn't even left yet.
