Old Jiu was holding a pile of crab and shrimp shells and almost collapsed.
The younger brothers gathered around and immediately understood what had happened.
The tenth brother initially mocked, "My ninth brother, how old are you! Still hiding food!"
We're not going to rob you, are we...?
Song Chengyuan was on the verge of tears, "Now we won't be robbed?"
Who ate this? Spit it out!
Eighth Brother patted Ninth Brother on the shoulder and advised, "Hey, forget it! If you want to eat some, we can go and catch some when the tide goes out?"
Although Lao Ba never hesitated to beat his younger brother, he always managed to offer solutions to problems.
Song Chenghou and Song Chengjian were standing nearby, discussing the progress of the house construction.
Seeing the situation, I guessed what was going on, but I just smiled and said nothing, letting them handle it themselves.
The tenth brother, Song Chengxin, picked up a crab leg that had been bitten off and mocked, "Those teeth...you could have bitten a small animal or something..."
Thinking of something, he looked at Wen Shishi.
Wen Shishi puffed out her little chest and said confidently, "Fourth Brother made me eat it!"
Song Chengliang then got up, went over to check, and bent down to ask Wen Shishi:
"Shishi, did you eat these?"
Song Chengyuan showed her the crab shells and shrimp shells.
Wen Shishi nodded firmly, as if waiting for praise...
Look! She ate so cleanly!
Song Chengliang sensed something was wrong, rushed back to the tent, and opened the covered plate...
He left the crab meat and claws intact after peeling them open.
After placing the crab meat and claws on a plate, Song Chengliang touched his nose.
"that......
Ninth Brother! This is my fault. I was just teasing Shishi and left her a crab...
I hid inside so she could find it herself, but little did I know you hid it too...
How about this? Consider this crab as compensation for you?
If that's not enough, shall I go beachcombing with Lao Ba this afternoon and get some more?
Song Chengyuan was on the verge of tears. What could he do after hearing what his fourth brother said?
It wasn't that he was hungry, nor was he reluctant to spend the money; it was just a long-standing habit of hiding food...
The discomfort I feel once it's taken away...
There's a sense of deprivation.
I feel uncomfortable all over, and I have nowhere to vent my anger.
But it was Shishi who did it. Even if it was because of a misunderstanding, or even if the little one did it on purpose, would he really be angry?
Song Chengyuan held the plate his fourth brother had given him, hesitating whether to eat it or return it to Wen Shishi.
Wen Shishi's eyes were deep and thoughtful as she pouted, "Ninth Brother secretly hid food, but he didn't give me any..."
I accidentally ate the wrong thing, and you're blaming me...
He turned around, head hanging low, shoulders hunched, as if deeply hurt, and slowly walked to the side.
When her older brothers saw this, they thought something was wrong with Wen Shishi, so they quickly got up and came over to comfort her.
A powerful punch landed on cotton.
Seeing Wen Shishi like this, and recalling her words just now, Song Chengyuan was filled with deep self-reproach.
It's like secretly hiding food from your sister; that's really wrong.
His initial anger vanished without a trace, and he could only think about how to make it up to his sister.
Song Chengxin, the tenth brother, was probably laughing too loudly. He had been enjoying the gossip of the third, fifth, and ninth brothers, and he didn't expect it to be his turn so soon.
The fishermen's houses are beginning to take shape, and the pace is no longer as rushed as before. Song Chengxin used scraps of wood to carve a wooden sword for Wen Shishi.
The swordsman polished them repeatedly, leaving no barbs; the tip was rounded and would not hurt anyone.
Wen Shishi had been bored eating sand for a long time, and when she saw her tenth brother take out the wooden sword, she was overjoyed!
He ran up to his friends, brandished his little wooden sword, and showed it off.
"Do you have a wooden sword? You don't, do you? My tenth brother made it for me!"
"Isn't this wooden sword beautiful? You can't touch it, you can't touch it!"
"This wooden sword must be heavy, right? But look, I'm swinging it left and right, and it's not heavy at all! Oh, you don't have one, so you don't know..."
"Look? Isn't there something extra in my hand? What's this long thing? It's the wooden sword my tenth brother made for me!"
......
The Song brothers were speechless upon hearing this.
We can't let Shishi stay with Third Brother for long anymore. She misses whoever takes care of her. She used to be such a well-behaved child, how did she become so naughty?
At first, when Song Chengxin, the tenth brother, heard this, he felt incredibly proud. He had finally gained a different place in Shishi's heart, and she was proud of her tenth brother...
Second brother Song Chengjian walked by and said slowly, "Just wait and see what it means to lift a stone only to drop it on your own foot!"
Song Chengxin didn't believe it. How could a small sword, which couldn't hurt anyone, possibly hurt its own foot?!
Soon after, a chorus of crying and wailing erupted on the beach.
The fishermen's children and young monks all clamored for the little wooden sword.
Song Chengxin secretly hid the remaining one in his pocket.
He had originally planned to practice with Shishi to strengthen their relationship, but with so many children wanting her, he couldn't possibly have her...
Just as I was about to turn and run away, a soft voice called out to me from behind.
"Tenth Brother..."
Song Chengxin turned around with joy, but his face immediately darkened when he saw the scene before him.
