Zhou Qian squatted in the dry grass on the shore and watched with great interest. Occasionally, when they dug up lobsters and crabs, she couldn't help but exclaim.
Xiaohui looked at her making a fuss and acting like an unworldly woman with a look of disgust on her face.
She's not from a wealthy family, so she acts like she's more noble than the people in the countryside.
Seeing how enthusiastic she was, Maotou began to encourage her, "Sister-in-law, do you want to come down and play too?"
Zhou Qian was about to shake his head and refuse when he heard the fat man on the other side shout, "Maotou, there's some good stuff here, come quickly."
"Here I come."
Zhou Qian also went over to see what good stuff they had caught and why Dapang was so excited.
The two men struggled in the water for a long time, and Maotou pulled out an old turtle with bared fangs and claws from the water.
"This stuff is really good. I'll take it back to help Brother Jing build up his body. It's absolutely great." Maotou said excitedly.
Zhou Qian looked at the old turtle, frowned, and stepped aside. She felt a click as if she had stepped on something. She looked down and saw it was a crab.
"There's a crab here..." Zhou Qian was about to bend down to catch it when he noticed two more crawling into the water. "There are two more over there. It's trying to escape into the water."
Zhou Qian was afraid that the crab would run away, so she rushed over to catch it. However, as she took a step forward, the river water gurgled into her rain boots.
The river water reached below her knees, and Zhou Qian couldn't take a single step forward with her rain boots filled with water. She could only watch helplessly as two large crabs escaped from in front of her.
"Sister-in-law, have you caught him?" Maotou and Dapang rushed over.
Zhou Qian stood in the river, not wanting to be seen in his current predicament. Qiangqiang looked calm and said, "I didn't catch him. He ran too fast."
"It's okay. There are a lot of crabs in this ditch. I'm sure we can catch some."
“Why are there so many crabs here?”
"There was a big flood a while ago, which destroyed several ponds and wiped out all the crabs and fish."
I see.
Maotou fished out a crab from the water and turned back to find Zhou Qian still standing there. "Sister-in-law, why are you standing there? You can't catch crabs if you stand still."
"Um... I seem to be stuck in the mud." Zhou Qian lifted his foot hard and pretended to take it out.
Silt said he would not take the blame.
Maotou stepped on the ground and found no mud. His eyes rolled and he smiled slyly, "Sister-in-law, you didn't go into the water wearing rain boots, did you?"
"...Aren't rain boots meant for going into the water?" Zhou Qian looked confused.
"So, sister-in-law, your rain boots are filled with water and you can't get out, right?"
“…” I know you are smart, but you don’t have to say it.
"Ha ha ha ha……"
Maotou's devilish laughter rang out again. He climbed ashore and rolled on the ground laughing.
Zhou Qian's face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. How keen is this brother to gloat over other people's misfortunes!!!
The key is that the laugh point is still low.
It's just going into the water wearing rain boots, what's so funny about that?
Just at this moment, Lu Jing, who had been missing for half a day, also appeared.
Help, why did he want this to appear?
Just to laugh at her joke?!
"What are you laughing at?" Lu Jing came up and kicked Maotou.
Maotou laughed so hard that he was speechless and could only point to Zhou Qian in the water.
Lu Jing saw the woman in the water, frowned, and asked in an unhappy tone, "Who asked you to go into the water?"
"How can you catch crabs without going into the water?" She bent down and pretended to look around.
"Don't you know how cold the river water is?" Lu Jing said with a cold and handsome face, and his fierce look was quite scary. "Get up here!"
Zhou Qian pursed her lips, feeling a little scared.
Maotou, who was laughing so hard that he almost gasped, finally stopped and said the key sentence, "Brother Jing, do you think my sister-in-law doesn't want to come up? She can't come up."
"?" Lu Jing looked at Maotou in confusion, and immediately guessed why. He kicked off his shoes and strode over.
"Don't come down, I can go up by myself." Zhou Qian was worried that his condition would get worse if he came into contact with cold water.
However, Lu Jing turned a deaf ear to her and went straight into the water. He glared at her fiercely, then held her under the armpits with both hands and carried her out of the water.
At this moment, Zhou Qian was like a child who had done something wrong, not daring to make a sound in front of his parents.
"Bring her shoes here." Lu Jing said this to Xiaohui who was not far away.
Xiao Hui looked unhappy, "It's not like she doesn't have long legs herself."
Lu Jing glared at her coldly. Xiaohui didn't dare to say anything. She curled her lips and reluctantly threw a paper bag over.
Zhou Qian opened the paper bag and found that they were his shoes. He immediately narrowed his eyes and said, "You are quite thoughtful."
"You think everyone is as stupid as you." Lu Jing looked at her with disgust, his eyes falling on her red, frozen feet. "Hurry up and put on your clothes."
"Why are you so fierce?" Zhou Qian muttered and put on his shoes obediently.
Knowing that he was not cut out for it, Zhou Qian just stood on the shore and watched Maotou and the others catch fish.
After a while, she noticed that Lu Jing was holding something in his hand and asked curiously, "What are you holding in your hand?"
Lu Jing’s inner thoughts: I thought you didn’t bring your glasses with you when you went out today.
He handed her the thing in his hand. Zhou Qian took it and looked at it. "Why did you make a grass circle?"
"..." Lu Jing's face suddenly turned dark. The wreath was so obvious, are you blind?
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Zhou Qian shifted his gaze from the 'grass ring' in his hand and saw that he had a dark face.
Who offended him again?
"What's wrong with you? Isn't this a grass ring?" Zhou Qian held the grass ring in front of him and shook it, successfully shaking off two of the few flowers on it.
Lu Jing subconsciously reached out to catch the flowers he had finally found, but he was too late and had to pull his hand back.
His face darkened even further. "How can you see that it's just a circle of grass?"
Zhou Qian looked innocent, "No matter which eye it is, it's just a grass circle."
Then he added, "And it's a circle of dry grass."
Lu Jing took a deep breath, "That's because you're blind!"
After saying that, he left angrily, leaving Zhou Qian with a confused look on his face.
Is there something wrong with this person?
Maotou, who had just emerged from the water, was smart this time. "Sister-in-law, could it be that Brother Jing made this wreath for you?"
wreath?
Zhou Qian was stunned. So he disappeared for so long just to help her make a wreath?
A strange ripple suddenly appeared in her chest. She didn't dare to explore it, but she couldn't help but explore it.
I looked at the 'grass circle' in my hand again, no, it was a 'wreath', and tried it on my head. It really was a model of a wreath.
But where to spend it?
She searched around the wreath and actually found two small purple flowers in a circle of hay.
There are only two petals left on a flower, and the other side is wilted.
This wreath is a bit shabby.
However, no matter how shabby it was, it was still a thoughtful gesture. After some hesitation, Zhou Qian decided to express his gratitude.
