Chapter 460 Almost Falling into the Water
He happily snuggled in her arms, his little body twitching.
Wen Zhenyi saw that they had stopped crying, and then he said to them, "Do you know why mother scolded you?"
Xixi lowered her head and said, "Because we didn't listen."
"Why don't you listen?"
Huanhuan whispered, "We want to see what Mom is looking at."
"Why don't you say it out loud?"
Neither child spoke.
Wen Zhenyi patted their heads and said, "You are curious about everything. I know and understand. But when I tell you it's dangerous, you should know that this danger can cost you your life. If something happens to you, what will I do?"
"Mom, I'm sorry, we were wrong." Xixi could feel her worry and sadness.
Huanhuan quickly hugged her and said, "Mom, I was wrong. I will never do that again."
Wen Zhenyi held two children in her arms. These were the treasures she had exchanged her life for!
"The boat we're taking today is different from the one we took to the capital. It's very small, and if it's not balanced properly, it could easily become dangerous. It could capsize into the sea. Do you remember what Mother told you about the sea?"
The two children nodded: "Remember."
"The sea is vast and deep. It would be dangerous if you fell in. Besides, you are all children who can't swim. Even if you could swim, it would be easy for something to happen."
"Mom, does being able to swim also mean you're more likely to get into trouble?"
"The people who drown most in the world are those who can swim. Do you know why?"
The two children shook their heads: "I don't know."
"Because they all think they can swim, they think they won't drown, but often such people are the most likely to drown."
"Why?"
"In uncharted waters, there are many unknown dangers. For example, there are seaweed, or you get a leg cramp and can't paddle, and so on."
"Mom, what we did just now might have hurt someone, right?"
"Yes, you are not only putting yourself in danger, but also harming others."
"Mom, we will never dare to do that again."
"When you grow up a little bit, I'll let Uncle Haiwa teach you how to swim."
The two children looked at her with red eyes, their eyes full of confusion: "Mom, didn't you say that those who drowned were those who could swim?"
"Yes, but learning to swim is also a way to save your life. At a critical moment, it can save your life."
After hearing what Haiwa said, Old Lady Wen and the others were afraid that Wen Zhenyi would beat the child, so they rushed over without stopping and found that the mother and her two children were sitting on the beach chatting.
Mr. Shen also breathed a sigh of relief. At first, they were reluctant to let the two children go, but they agreed after the two children begged.
They were terrified to hear that the two children almost fell into the sea. If anything happened to the two children, they would probably feel guilty for the rest of their lives.
Wen Zhenyi knew they were coming, and also knew they were worried about the two children: "Grandpa and the others are here, let's go find them."
The two children stood up and ran to find the three people behind them.
Mrs. Wen looked at the two children and asked, "Are you scared?"
"Grandma, it was our fault. Not only were we disobedient, we almost hurt everyone."
"It's good that you know you're wrong. From now on, if your mother says something dangerous, you must never do it, understand?"
"knew."
Mr. Shen and Old Man Wen looked at each other and smiled: "Let's go, Grandpa will take you to change clothes."
Wen Zhen stood up, patted the sand behind him, and walked towards Old Lady Wen: "Grandma, are you afraid that I will beat them?"
"Haiwa and Village Chief Haiyun said they've never seen you look so grim. We're worried you might hit the children."
"They are still young and curious about many things. They may encounter dangers without our knowledge. I am afraid that I will regret it in the future if I don't guide them correctly."
"Did you do this on purpose this time?"
"It's not intentional, it's just to teach them a lesson."
Old Lady Wen reached out and poked her forehead: "You, you, what can I say about you?"
"Grandma, Village Chief Haiyun and Haiwa are here, so they'll be fine. I'll be watching them anytime."
"I just hope these two kids won't be as brave as you in the future. You really scared us to death."
Wen Zhenyi reached out and touched her chest: "It's still beating, which means it's okay."
Old Lady Wen slapped her hand away: "You stupid girl."
When Village Chief Haiyun saw them coming back, Wen Zhenyi's expression was no longer so ugly and he felt relieved: "Mrs. Shen, the child is a little naughty, don't be angry."
"Did I scare you just now?"
Village Chief Haiyun nodded: "That's right."
"I know you won't let anything happen to the two children."
"Children in our Hougang Village also went out to sea with their parents at this age. Sometimes they fell into the sea. At first they were afraid of water, but after falling a few times they learned to swim on their own."
"No wonder these kids are good at swimming."
"Now I don't know if this oyster will be successful."
"You'll find out later. I have to go back tomorrow."
"Won't you stay a few more days?"
"No, I still have a lot of things to deal with over there. I've been out here for a month, and it's time to go back and take a look."
“When will this bear fruit?”
"Go pull up a string of shrimp cakes from a bamboo raft and see if there are oyster shells attached to them. It's a success, but the process may be a bit long."
"Okay, we'll check on you often, and then we'll send someone to tell you."
"We don't have any way to cultivate oyster seedlings right now, so we can only rely on the weather. If there are a lot of oyster seedlings attached, then there is hope."
"I hope God will give me a good meal."
"As for the fish, shrimp, and crabs, I'll go back and figure out a way to deal with them. I'll tell you in detail after I've finished dealing with the village affairs."
"Don't worry, don't worry."
The two children were still frightened at night and developed high fever.
There was no doctor in Hougang Village, so Wen Zhenyi had to rush back to Xinglin Village with the children and Old Lady Wen.
Shen Hanxing and the others were awakened by the knock on the door.
When they came out and saw Wen Zhenyi coming back with the child, they were shocked: "Why are you back in the middle of the night?"
"Huanhuanxixi has a fever, and there is no doctor in Hougang Village, so I can only bring them back."
Wen Chengwen quickly said, "Take the child inside. I'll go get Shi Xuan."
Shi Xuan came with his medicine box to check the pulses of the two children.
The two little guys were crying in their sleep, saying that they were wrong.
Shen Hanxing frowned and looked at Wen Zhenyi: "Yi Yi, did something happen?"
Wen Zhenyi didn't intend to hide it, so he told him what happened today.
Ma Yinghe didn't know what to say to her: "You, you."
Shi Xuan gave the two children acupuncture and wiped their bodies with white wine to cool them down physically. He was busy until dawn, and their body temperatures finally came down.
