Chapter 50: Childish
Everyone was amused by this bowl of melodrama during adolescence, and shed tears of sympathy for Xu Qingsong.
Mother Tao's focus was not here. If she hadn't seen her child grow up, she would have wanted to pull his ears and ask, "No wonder your grades were so bad back then. You were thinking about love all the time!"
After laughing for a while, my sister suddenly remembered the photos in her mobile phone and sent them to Tao Huayu.
When Tao Huayu clicked on it, he felt like his funny bone was tickled and he laughed so hard that his whole body shook.
Everyone asked him, "What photo?"
He moved his fingers and forwarded the message to the fraud group, then handed the phone to his parents. The brother-in-law came to his sister and looked at her.
When everyone clicked on the group message, the first picture was of Pengpeng and Xiaoci lying on the shore with lotus leaves on their heads. The two little cuties made everyone smile.
The second photo is a bit unusual. It shows their backs. It looks like several people are lined up in a row, kneeling in the lotus field.
Everyone burst into laughter. Pengpeng didn't know what was going on and barked twice over here, but Xiaoci had already hidden under its belly.
My sister held her belly and said, "I was looking at the two of them, and when I looked up, you all knelt down one after another. What's going on? Are you trying to ask the lotus roots to appear from the field by themselves?"
"Watch your stomach," his brother-in-law hugged him and said with a smile, "I was so tired and hot at the time, kneeling down would save effort and cool you down!"
My sister nodded. She knew, but she thought it was hilarious: "If someone didn't know, they would think you were having some kind of ceremony! Oh, I'm dying of laughter."
Tao Huayu wiped his eyes and enlarged the photo: "The funniest thing is this, who is this person without a head?"
Everyone followed suit and zoomed in to take a look. Wenxi said, "It was Xiaoyu. He was right next to me at the time! He must have been digging for lotus roots, hahahaha."
Li Yu——Embarrassed, but still clicked save silently.
Seeing that it was getting late, everyone prepared to say goodbye.
Tao's father and mother went to the kitchen and packed fried lotus root boxes and glutinous rice lotus roots for each of them to take away. They also wanted them to take away fresh lotus roots and lotus pods.
The nine of them dug out quite a lot, and the several baskets they brought over were all full, with two layers of them stacked on the electric tricycle.
Tao's mother said, "Qingsong and Xiaoxi either live here or come here often. They can go and dig them whenever they want. You city kids probably won't be able to eat freshly dug ones like this, so bring some back and let your family members have a taste."
"Auntie," Xu Qingsong pointed at Du Yunkai and Wenxi and said with a smile, "They won't leave for now, so we can't take them back."
Liu Wangxue also said: "I already live here, and my parents are not here recently. I can't finish it if I take it back."
Tao's father spoke up: "Send it to your family by mail. There is a courier station in town. We can use cold chain transportation. It is convenient and fast. It will be fresh when you send it back."
Finally, unable to resist the enthusiasm of Tao's parents, Liu Wangxue, Wenxi and Du Yunkai each took a basket away and sent some back to their relatives.
There are only Li Yu and his father in his family, and they hardly cook, so he didn't want it.
Xu Qingsong was assigned two baskets, one to be sent back to Beijing and the other to be delivered to the second master's house.
Yue Cheng and Lan Xiaoxi bought a house in the town. They happened to pass by the express station on their way back, so Yue Cheng brought a few baskets of parcels for them to mail.
The remaining baskets were loaded into Tao Huayu's car. After completing the mailing process, he and Xu Qingsong delivered them directly to Erye's home in the city.
Liu Wangxue and Wenxi sent the address to Xu Qingsong and asked him for help. They decided not to go there because it would be very troublesome to bring the cat and dog with them.
Du Yunkai had nothing to do, so he followed the car. Li Yu also got into Tao Huayu's car - his home was in the city.
When Liu Wangxue left, she took the "Lotus King" she had dug up, and she threw it into the lotus field in a hurry. But after she left with the cat, Li Yu went over and picked it up again. This was what he had worked so hard for today and he must cherish it.
I hope that since he helped pick it up, Xiaoci will let him hug her.
But there was no way, Xiaoci was a cat that couldn't communicate. In the end, Liu Wangxue held it and let Li Yu stroke it a few times, and Xiaoci almost scratched him. Even so, Li Yu was very satisfied.
I didn't use a leash for Pengpeng when I went out today. It is a well-behaved dog and won't run around. Liu Wangxue thinks she can save the trouble of using this leash when she goes out for a run in the future.
After leaving the gate of the Tao family, she said goodbye to Tao's father and mother. After walking a few steps, she looked down and found that Xiaoci had not caught up with her. Then she heard her sister calling her: "Xuxu, your cat is not leaving!"
Liu Wangxue looked back and saw the cat standing in front of the puddle, unwilling to come over.
I gave the two cats a bath at the gate of the yard, and poured the bath water directly onto the cement floor. I also rinsed their waterproof clothes here. Then, when I washed the dishes, the water flowed down the slope and accumulated at the edge of the cement floor, but had not yet completely seeped in.
Xiao Ci was really afraid of these "dirty things" and didn't want to get involved with them at all. She raised her round head and called out to Liu Wangxue.
Liu Wangxue gathered the bags in one hand, went back and picked the cat up, rubbing its head: "Baby, you are a cat, it's such a short distance, can't you just jump over it? Look how lazy you are."
Xiaoci rubbed her palm: "Meow~"
Liu Wangxue pinched its paws and waved to her sister: "Say goodbye, sister~"
Her sister smiled as she watched her interact with the cat: "Come and visit us often when you have time."
"Okay, bye."
Wen Xi was simply disgusted: "How long has this cat been here? Look how spoiled you have become to it. Liu Wangxue, drowning a child is like killing him! Wake up!"
Wenxi poked Xiaoci's forehead again and said, "Look at your brother, he doesn't bother us at all!"
Xiaoci raised her paw to attack with a cat punch, but Wenxi quickly pulled her hand back: "Hey, I can't hit you, I can't hit you~"
Now it was Liu Wangxue's turn to look at it with dismay: "Childish!"
After returning home, they put things away, especially the things Tao Huayu and Li Yu bought for the cat. There was no room in the cupboard, so they just piled them in the storage box next to it.
Then they took turns taking a bath, changing clothes, wiping the cat and dog's paws, and snuggled together on the sofa.
The two of them lamented that they had never done this kind of physical labor in the fields since they were young, and this was a bit too intense for them.
When we were at Tao Huayu's house, a group of people were doing this and that, talking and laughing, and I didn't feel tired. But this time, as soon as I relaxed and lay down, I felt physically tired.
Liu Wangxue got up and went to her parents' room, and took out the massager that Wenxi bought for them: "Let's enjoy it for them first."
Oh my god, oh my god! I haven't watched videos for several days. On the last day of 2023, I suddenly found that the singer I love sang my favorite song again! ! ! My family, Shen Shen, "Winter's Secret", made me cry again The last time was when "Flowers Bloom and Forget Worries" was released. When the prelude sounded, I didn't know what happened, and the tears were like a dam bursting. I was crazy. I cried until the last note of the whole song ended. I had no idea what was being sung. Then I listened to it again from the beginning, and saw that many people in the barrage were the same as me, haha ...
