Her grape-like eyes blinked as she looked at her eldest brother and sixth brother, nodding in agreement.
What's the name of this fish?
The sixth brother, Song Chengfeng, asked.
"It's called a tiger eel."
Wen Shishi recalled the description in the book and said fluently, "The tiger eel is also called the naked-breasted eel, which has no pectoral fins..."
Their skin is exceptionally thick, and their teeth are sharp enough to easily bite a fisherman's finger until it bleeds...
Glancing inside, the tiger eel in the bucket was tiny; it didn't look so fierce at all.
Is it poisonous?
Song Chengfeng asked.
Wen Shishi waved her little hand, which was then grasped by Song Chengfeng.
"It's not poisonous. But it likes to eat small poisonous fish and shellfish..."
Therefore, a lot of toxins accumulate in the body.
If you happen to eat a tiger eel, and too many toxins accumulate in your body, you will experience symptoms of poisoning...
Song Chenghou and Song Chengfeng suddenly realized what was going on.
Looking back into the house, at the little baby still weak, being held by his mother, he couldn't help but show a speechless expression...
Such a small fish shouldn't accumulate much toxin, but perhaps...
This fish has become quite gluttonous, eating many poisonous fish, shrimp, and shellfish. Unfortunately, it was eaten by the young child; perhaps an adult could withstand it...
Xiao Bao's parents didn't get to eat either, but they gave it all to him alone...
They meant well but did something wrong.
"besides......"
Wen Shishi blinked her big eyes, "Tiger eels can't actually cure bedwetting..."
Wen Shishi herself was a little embarrassed when she said that.
Whoever wets the bed, only they know.
A smile appeared on Song Chenghou's face as he patted Wen Shishi's small shoulder, comforting her, "It's okay, children's bodies haven't fully developed yet..."
It's normal to not be able to control it; my older brothers also wet the bed when they were little.
"When you grow up and your body is fully developed, you won't wet the bed anymore."
Wen Shishi tilted her head, thought for a moment, and then blurted out the word "but"...
Following her gaze, Song Chengfeng knew she was thinking of her third brother again, recalling his "glorious achievement" of "bedwetting" a few days ago...
I quickly covered her mouth, otherwise if my third brother heard it, there would be another uproar.
This has now become the third brother's Achilles' heel; anyone can ignite it at any moment.
Wen Shishi understood and nodded obediently, and Song Chengfeng then released her hand with relief.
Then Wen Shishi winked mischievously and said, "Don't worry! I won't tell anyone about Third Brother wetting the bed..."
Song Chenghou and Song Chengfeng both looked in the direction of Song Chengxin.
Song Chengxin was already standing on the outermost edge. Sensing the gaze, he saw two adults and one child, their eyes flickering, looking at him...
She walked over with a smile, "What? Did you say something bad about me?"
Feeling guilty, Wen Shishi quickly snuggled into her older brother's arms.
Without even glancing at Song Chengxin, she buried her head and began to say, "I didn't, I didn't..."
This sight amused the three brothers.
Song Chengxin rushed over and started shoving, "What's wrong with you? Now that you have an older brother, you don't want a third brother anymore?"
"I just forgot, who carried you to the outhouse?"
Wen Shishi didn't even look up, and gave a soft "humph".
The three brothers laughed and quickly walked into the house.
Xiao Bao has vomited up what he ate and had his stomach washed with spring water; his complexion has improved considerably.
While Song Chenghou and Song Chengfeng were out, they slowly opened their eyes.
When the parents inquired, they found no other discomfort, only some weakness.
The tenth son had already mastered the skill of quickly decocting medicine. He brought over the licorice decoction, blew on it carefully, and then handed it to Xiao Bao's mother.
Xiao Bao's mother looked over gratefully and fed Xiao Bao the whole drink.
The tenth brother chuckled and teased, "Sister-in-law, I think we should keep Xiaobao away from the sea from now on..."
Or you could learn from the novice monks in the temple and eat some dry food or seaweed and kelp, so at least you won't get pricked by fish or poisoned.
As soon as Lao Shi finished speaking, Xiao Bao pouted, seemingly feeling extremely wronged. Why was everyone else able to eat fish without any problems, but he was poisoned?
So many people went beachcombing, including quite a few children, yet the poisonous fish specifically targeted them?
The grievances surged like a tidal wave, turning from silent sobs into loud wailing.
The Song brothers chuckled, looking at the unfortunate child with a mixture of sympathy and pity, but not much...
Xiao Bao's mother could only coax him, "Alright, alright! Xiao Bao won't go beachcombing anymore! He won't get poisoned by the fish!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Bao cried even louder!
