"The Little Mermaid"

Have you heard the legend of the mermaid?

Once upon a time there was a fisherman by the sea named Chen Xiaodu.

He went out to sea with his father when he was a child and accidentally caught a mermaid.

The mermaid was also small, about the same age as him. The first time Chen Xiaodu saw a mermaid, he was very surprised.

It's a male fish, but as beautiful as ever.

The Little Mermaid shivered on the boat, his golden fish tail struggled weakly.

His father was very happy and said that he could catch it and sell it for a big price.

The mermaid started to cry and I felt pity, Chen Xiaodu is no exception.

So on the night of the return journey, he secretly released the mermaid.

Later, this mermaid would appear on the coast every night of high tide. Sometimes, before taking advantage of the tide to go back, Chen Xiaodu had to push him back into the sea.

Chen Xiaodu thought this was a silly fish.

He is also a fisherman, how could this mermaid think he is a good person.

Mermaids don't like to talk. It took several months for Chen Xiaodu to know that his name was Ruan Xiaoyu.

They don't like to talk because their decibels are different from those of humans. He wants to lower the decibel so low that humans can hear it.

But then, his throat would hurt.

But Ruan Xiaoyu didn't tell him.

Because Chen Xiaodu said he liked to hear him sing.

Later, Chen Xiaodu and Ruan Xiaoyu grew up together.

Chen Xiaodu's father arranged a marriage for him, Xiaoxun from a neighboring village.

Chen Xiaodu wanted to refuse, but couldn't say why.

He told Ruan Xiaoyu about it.

Ruan Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment.

He was lying on the scorched rock. Asked: "Will you marry her?"

Chen Xiaodu replied uncertainly, "...Maybe?"

In the next second, Ruan Xiaoyu flicked his fish tail, throwing him all over the sea.

Then dived into the sea.

Chen Xiaodu called out his name on the shore, until his voice became hoarse and he didn't answer.

Later, every night when the tide was high, Ruan Xiaoyu did not appear.

However, it was not until Ruan Xiaoyu appeared again that Chen Xiaodu realized that the little mermaid was so important to him.

So he was heartbroken and simply jumped into the sea. He grew up by the sea since he was a child and his water is naturally not bad.

It was just bad luck that day and encountered an undercurrent.

Being caught in the undercurrent, the air in his lungs was gradually exhausted. Chen Xiaodu thought that he might be dying.

At this moment, golden scales flashed past and Chen Xiaodu saw a face that was about to cry.

Chen Xiaodu raised his arm and wanted to grab Ruan Xiaoyu's hand, but the water was too urgent. It looked close, but couldn't touch it.

Don't cry... Chen Xiaodu wanted to comfort him, but couldn't make a sound.

Last second of consciousness.

Something took its own hand and kissed him.

This is the legend of the mermaid.

Legend has it that you were stranded for love.

Then I can also dive into the sea for you.

"What happened later?" Ruan Xu hugged Du Chen's arm, "Dad, what happened later?"

Du Chen replied with a smile, "Afterwards, the mermaid lived with the fisherman."

Ruan Xu frowned and asked reluctantly, "Why? Why? Why?"

Finding it difficult to handle, he thought about it and replied, "Maybe it's a fairy tale."

"Okay."

So Ruan Xu didn't ask.

Du Chen leaned down and kissed Ruan Xu's little cheek: "I love you, good night."

Ruan Xu blinked and replied in a milky voice, "I love you too, father."
