Chapter 203: The Face is Too Big to Hold
Diao Yulian also started to feel sore on her feet, even from standing, so she ran over to make a fuss.
"Xiaotong, take a few pictures of me too. It's just something that comes handy."
There was a tissue stuffed in his nose and he spoke in a muffled voice.
Lin Xiaotong was about to scold someone, but then she changed her mind and took out her camera and pretended to take pictures.
Diao Yulian was satisfied and thought she had won the bet. She even winked proudly at Wu Shengli beside her.
After trying several poses carefully, his hands and legs became sore, and he finally couldn't help but complain out loud.
"Why isn't it ready yet? Can't you just click on this photo?"
Lin Xiaotong was wearing a straw hat. She raised her head and spoke cheerfully.
"Oh, Auntie, your face is too big. My camera can't even capture it."
"What do you mean? You're kidding me! This is how you treat your elders."
Diao Yulian was so angry that her fingers were shaking and she was sweating all over in the sun.
This time he couldn't pretend anymore, his nose twitched, he threw the tissue on the ground, and started cursing without caring about his image.
Gao Xiulan put one hand on her waist and gave him a glare.
"What are you yelling about? Isn't what Xiaotong said right? You act so shameless and act like you're capable, right?"
"You really don't know what you're talking about, Diao Yulian, don't think I don't know what you're up to."
Wu Shengli's face was burning with anger after being scolded. He ran over, grabbed Diao Yulian's arm and pulled her back.
"Alright, alright, tell me, why did you have to come here? It's really embarrassing. Why don't you go home quickly?"
"What's wrong with what I said? It's such a small amount of money that you're still fussy about it. You're really stingy."
Diao Yulian was still being stubborn, but she also knew that she was muttering to herself as she walked away. She was also afraid that Gao Xiulan would really slap her.
"Where's our Jiabao?"
"Weren't you here just now?"
The couple walked to the other side and found that Wu Jiabao, who had been playing with the lotus leaf next to them, was gone.
He immediately panicked, his face turned pale, and his steps stumbled.
"Jiabao, damn Jiabao? Where have you been?"
The people who were resting also rushed over after hearing the noise.
Zhang Dazui spoke quickly: "What's the matter? Wasn't the child still here just now?"
Jin Qiaofeng rolled her eyes: "You're such a grown-up, how come you can't even take care of your child?"
"Isn't he going to fall into the lake?"
Ernengzi was looking around in the lake, staring at the surface with his eyes slightly narrowed.
Lin Xiaotong picked up the camera and began to observe the lake. There was a faint circle of ripples in the distance, and the lotus leaves were still shaking.
"It's not there, is it?"
Anyway, there was either a fish or a person, and the direction of the finger happened to be where there was a gap in the railing next to the big willow tree.
Wu Shengli took off his shirt, dived into the water and swam towards that place.
The sunlight is so bright that I can only swim with my eyes squinted.
After swimming there, he didn't dare to speak loudly, but lowered his head and dived into the water.
Sure enough, I saw a little fat boy's butt in the water, chubby and plump.
When Wu Shengli saw it, he almost laughed out of anger.
Wu Jiabao didn't expect that his parents would not realize he was missing until so late.
He was originally sleeping under the shade of a big willow tree by the lake with a lotus leaf on his head and a lotus root stalk in his mouth.
A sudden thought occurred to me. I had seen a little hero jumping into a reed marsh in a comic book before.
He held a reed in his cheek and successfully avoided the enemy's pursuit.
He climbed up, patted his butt, and prepared to find a shallow place to try it out while no one was paying attention.
Unexpectedly, my foot stepped on a twisted grass trunk on the ground, and my foot slipped and curled up into a ball. I slid into the water with a gurgling sound, making a small splash.
The whole process happened so smoothly that Wu Jiabao forgot to call for help and his butt fell into the water.
He could only hold the lotus root stalk in his mouth and prepare to swim back. Of course, the time he could hold his breath was limited, so he blew bubbles from time to time.
Fortunately, the water in the lake is warm in summer, not as freezing cold as in winter.
After a while, my cheeks felt sore and I could no longer hold the pole, so I had to relax my limbs and float on the water.
Wu Jiabao was also very brave. He floated among the lotus leaves, shielded from the sunlight, and almost fell asleep, waiting for someone to pick him up.
Wu Shengli swam over, circled behind, and when the time was right, he stretched out his claws and grabbed Wu Jiabao's butt.
"Ah—help, mom—"
Someone touched Wu Jiabao's butt and he thought he was bitten by a snake in the water.
He was so scared that he jumped three feet high, and the sound was so miserable that people on the shore could hear it.
When the little fat boy turned around, he saw Wu Shengli emerging from the water and burst into tears.
He suddenly jumped into his father's arms, crying loudly, with tears and snot flying.
Wu Shengli staggered and coughed a few times after being hit.
He propped himself up and swam hard towards the shore.
When he was almost reaching the shore, something suddenly bit his butt.
“Ouch—”
Wu Shengli grimaced in pain. Wu Jiabao's calf floundered in the water, and with a bit of luck, he actually kicked something.
It was still a big fish. Its tail hit Wu Shengli's mouth and covered his mouth with mud.
He just stretched out his hand and waved it, and the unfortunate fish was pulled ashore, with its dead eyes wide open and its tail sticking out, it bounced a few times.
After climbing ashore, Wu Shengli gasped and put his son down from his armpit.
Unexpectedly, Diao Yulian, the woman, hugged her troublesome son as soon as she came up without even looking at him.
It was really infuriating. After Wu Shengli wrung out his trouser legs, he picked up the fish mouth and shook it.
"Look at my luck! Fish are delivered to my door."
"Old Wu, your physical strength is really this."
Zhou Jianguo looked at the man's skills and thought they were quite good. After all, he was able to swim back while dragging his fat son.
"That's right. I was a promising kid who almost made it to the swimming team."
Wu Shengli shook the water off his hands, raised his head, and shook the wet hair in front of his forehead.
It was a farce. When Wu Jiabao finally returned, his butt was swollen. He wore a lotus leaf hat and a tiger head hat on his head and talked about his adventure.
Hu Tou was still a little envious in his heart, but he still didn't dare to go down. If he really went down, he would be in trouble for a week.
When we got back, it was just before lunch. We could smell the delicious food as we walked at the entrance of the alley, and our stomachs were growling with hunger.
"Mom, what are you thinking about?"
As soon as the people stepped into the house, Lin Xiaotong couldn't help but ask, her mother Gao Xiulan's face looked a little strange on the way.
Xie Da Jiao cut a few slices of watermelon and put them on the square table.
"What's wrong? Xiulan."
Gao Xiulan took a bite of watermelon to quench her thirst and glanced at Wu Shengli across the street who was washing his feet by the pool.
He lowered his voice and said, "Didn't you notice that Wu Shengli's hand doesn't seem to be seriously damaged today? Didn't you say before that he injured his tendons and became disabled?"
Lin Xiaotong and Xie Dajiao looked at each other and stopped chewing the melon.
Thinking about it carefully, it was true. After swimming up, Wu Shengli even shook his arms on both sides.
Logically speaking, if your wrist is injured, there should be some symptoms.
Wu Shengli acted as if nothing had happened, so it's no wonder people thought too much about it.
"I guess there were some twists and turns in that incident at the factory before."
Gao Xiulan glanced outside the door, quickly looked away, and spat some watermelon seeds on the ground, which accidentally landed on the little orange belly Maomao lying on the ground.
The cat meowed, turned over, and its belly hair shook. It found a cooler place and continued to lie down.
