Ye Mu did not allow Ye Fu to go out to sea, insisting that he rest for a few days.
However, the chores at home could not be neglected.
Selecting wood and preparing beams for work were tasks that needed Ye Fu's presence.
Thankfully, it was only a mild cold, and after the fever subsided, he felt better.
Seizing the moment after lunch to rest, Ye Yaodong paddled his small boat out to sea.
It had already been a day since he had put down the trap nets, and he was eager to see what he had caught.
Upon reaching the dock, he glanced around but didn't see the new boat of the three men.
He figured they must have ventured out early in the morning.
So, he paddled his small boat to the center of the sea, right where he set the trap nets.
The surrounding waters were quite limited, making it impossible to miss the spot.
After locating the buoy of the trap net, he secured his boat and began to pull it up.
