Chapter 3 Parents go out on the boat and encounter a storm
For several days in a row, Wen Wenlong neither went to farm nor went down to the river to fish, but sat in front of the dark table and drunk soju, and poor Wen Jinhe was beaten back to his original form, like when he was eight years old, he cooked by himself, washed and swept the floor, like a grass, and became a motherless child.
Eight years ago, Wenhualong, as usual, held a fishing net in his left hand and held Wen Jinhe's biological mother Sheng Fang in his right hand, happily going down to the river to fish, because his grandparents died early, Wen Jinhe had to take his sister Wen Jinyi, who had just turned two years old, at home, she was like a big person, singing the folk song that her mother taught her:
The moon is pooping, and a daddy sits in his belly,
Daddy came out to buy vegetables, and a grandma sat in his belly,
Grandma came out to embroider flowers, embroidered miscellaneous glutinous cakes,
The glutinous rice fell into the well and became a mixed toad,
The toad stretches out its feet and becomes a miscellaneous magpie,
Magpies on the trees, turtledoves,
The turtledove cooed and told the monk to spank!
Wen Jinyi was drowsy in her sister's singing, with a sweet smile on the corner of her mouth, although she had a hard time, she at least had a warm home, and a mother and sister who loved her.
Wenhualong drove a fishing boat from Ding Port, all the way north, only caught a few small fish, he was unwilling, and decided to continue to go north, to catch a few big fish back. Sheng Fang knew his man's thoughts, he wanted to catch a few fish and go back so that he could celebrate the birthday of his eldest daughter Wen Jinhe.
Heaven is not beautiful. When their fishing boat sailed to the vicinity of Tongcheng, the sky suddenly turned black, like a black cloud pressing down on the city, followed by a strong wind, torrential rain poured down, the waves in the river from time to time hit their fishing boat, the fishing boat was like a spinning top in the river waves, spinning, the slightest misfortune will be buried in the belly of the fish, to visit the old man Qu Yuan.
The situation is critical, and there is no room for it, and the cultural dragon has to remind Sheng Fang in the cabin, you hurry up and sit down and hold on, I am going to surf over.
Before the words fell, a huge wave hit, the whole fishing boat was lifted by the waves, fortunately the cultural dragon is a handle with more than 20 years of experience, he stood proudly on the bow, spread his legs, straightened his waist, concentrated, looking straight ahead, the posture was like Uncle Guan who had passed five levels and cut six generals, after a burst of engine sound, the fishing boat surfed by, and fell heavily on the river.
At this time, a sharp cry came from the cabin, Sheng Fang's whole body was bounced up, her head hit the canopy, and a piercing pain spread all over her body, she felt that the whole world was spinning, and after stabilizing her spirit, she choked up and said as if she was explaining the aftermath!
The torrential rain was still falling, the wind and waves in the river were getting bigger and bigger, and before the boat that had just fallen had time to breathe, another huge wave was about to hit head-on, and Sheng Fang in the cabin stumbled and fell heavily into the cabin.
The cultural dragon shouted into the cabin, you are okay, sit down and grasp it, I have to avoid this wave. A mournful engine roared from the bow of the ship, and the soaking cultural dragon simply went naked, clutching the joystick, and the fishing boat rushed to the left like an arrow off the string.
The cultural dragon thought that he had escaped the huge waves, and he was rejoicing and rejoicing in his heart, but the good times did not last long, and his luck was not good, and a huge wave rolled to the left, fierce and fast, like the wild horse that had escaped, he didn't have time to think about it, and drove the boat towards the river.
However, Jiang Xin was waiting for him again with rows of sweeping waves, just like the queue that was marching forward in a neat manner at the military parade, he saw that the situation was not good, and immediately turned around and drove the boat to the right, but, as the saying goes, it is often the good hunter who drowns, and the goddess of luck did not favor him this time, the whole hull was hit by a row of huge waves on the right, and the scream came from the fishing cabin again, piercing the sky.
In an instant, the whole boat was swept into the air by the huge waves, just like the fish that turned white due to lack of oxygen, the bottom of the boat was up, the top of the boat was down, and it fell heavily into the boiling river with a muffled sound.
The wind in the sky seemed to be tired, its earth-shattering roar gradually weakened, the torrential rain in the sky seemed to have subsided, the huge waves on the river seemed to be deflated, the sky opened a curtain, a ray of sunshine softly spread over the river, and the river became pink and pink.
The cultural dragon struggled in the river for a few rounds, and finally swam out of the water, he opened his eyes wide, emitting a dark blue light like a wolf's eye, and quickly looked for Sheng Fang on the river, but there was only a fishing boat hit by the river on the river, and a bad premonition hit his heart, he swam to the boat, and turned the hull over with all his might, but there was no Sheng Fang in the cabin.
At this moment, he didn't have time to think about it, a fierce man plunged into the water, but nothing was caught, another fierce son plunged into the water, but still found nothing, he plunged into the water again, and only picked up a piece of Sheng Fang's clothes, he was completely enraged, like an enraged lion, slapping the river unbridledly, and scolding the blind God.
Wenhua Long was tired and had no strength, he calmed down, if the boat was not repaired, it would be impossible to find Sheng Fang, so he relied on his excellent water nature and exhausted his strength to push the fishing boat to the shore little by little. But this is a long process, a process that requires exhausting energy and sharpening the will. Maybe it moved the heavens, the cultural dragon succeeded, and the boat was pushed to the shore.
After he found someone to repair the boat, he drove the boat back and forth on the vast river to look for Sheng Fang, but after a day and a night, he still did not find her. He was not reconciled, so he was willing to give dry food and continued to search.
After a period of heavy rain, the raging river was much calmer, as gentle as a girl who went on a blind date for the first time, and the people who went out to fish in the village have returned to the village one after another, Wen Jinhe took his sister and asked one by one: Have you seen my father and mother? Why haven't they returned?
The truth is hurtful, and in the face of these two underage children, some fishermen comforted them and said: "Your father's boat is probably sheltered from the wind, and now that the rain has stopped, it should be back soon, don't worry too much." ”
White lies are sometimes necessary, and some fishermen are secretive and say, "The rain has stopped for so long, it should go back, but don't ......"
After waiting by the river for several hours, still did not see the shadow of their parents, Wen Jinhe and Wen Jinyi were tired, they had to go home in a daze, after dinner, Wen Jinhe hugged his sister and sat on the steps in front of the hall, and his sister asked sleepily, sister, dad and mom won't really be fine, right?
Wen Jinhe followed the example of an adult, took two mouthfuls, gently knocked her little brain melon and said, don't crow's mouth, sleep with you, Dad and Mom will be fine.
It was dark, it was as dark as splashed ink, mosquitoes were buzzing, and from time to time they came to harass the sisters, Wen Jinhe had to carry his sister into the house, and coaxed her sister Wen Jinyi to sleep for a while.
The river is full of fog, and the whole Xiangjiang River is like a young woman wearing tulle, calm and gentle, completely without yesterday's spicy, arrogant, and fierce, Wen Jinhe took his sister to the fishing boat wharf by the river again.
People come and go on the wharf, wearing red and green, all of them are people who come to the fishing boat to buy fish, Wen Jinhe stood on the wharf, looking at the smoky river, how she hoped that her parents could step on the Ling Bo microstep, through the diffuse river fog, and suddenly appeared on the wharf. However, she was disappointed, the fog had long since lifted, and the sun was shining on the vast river, where there was a melodious whistle from time to time, but their parents' fishing boat still did not break through the fog.
A day has passed, two days have passed, the parents still haven't come back, the neighbor Aunt Wang felt wrong, very worried about the two sisters, she found the village chief, worriedly said, Wenhualong and his family have been out fishing for several days, and they haven't returned, something should happen, right?
"The rainstorm a few days ago was really scary, and if their boat hadn't avoided it in time, it really wouldn't have been clear," the village chief frowned, feeling very bad, "I have to send a few villagers to the river to look for it." ”
The rain stopped, but Wen Wenlong's heart was bleeding, he had been shuttling on the river for the past two days, praying that Sheng Fang was still alive, and he was silently thinking in his heart, even if there was no possibility of survival, he hoped to find her body, but no matter how he looked for it, no matter how many people he asked, there was no news about his wife.
Although he was unwilling, when he thought of his two daughters at home, he decided to go home first, he couldn't look for it like this anymore, if something happened to the family, even if his intestines were repentant, he couldn't remedy it.
Wen Jinhe took her sister to the fishing boat dock again, she saw a fishing boat from a distance, and her tall and mighty father stood on the boat, she was surprised in her heart, muttering to herself, God willing, Mom and Dad finally went home safely.
