Who looks older at 134?
Li Wei couldn't stand seeing her cousin Zhong using their family's things to curry favor, which finally angered her. What's more, Luo Da not only didn't help her, but was also overjoyed, making her feel even more humiliated.
So without thinking, she picked up the drink glass in front of her, intending to splash it at Li Wei. Seeing the situation was not good, Li Wei shouted, "Waiter, bring some more drinks!" Then she slipped behind Luo Da. Little brat, trying to splash someone with drinks like in the movies? I'm not your betraying lover or rival. If you want to splash someone, splash Luo Da, hehe.
Luo Da quickly reached out and took the cup from his cousin Zhong's hand: "Go home after you've eaten. When you're a guest, act like one. Don't forget this isn't my house or yours." This girl is really inexplicable. She doesn't even consider the occasion. She ruined the old lady's birthday banquet. Not to mention the old man, even his own father would be shocked to death when he gets home.
Cousin Zhong was truly angry this time. Seeing that everyone else was watching the show with amusement and no one was speaking up for her, her eyes reddened, and she said resentfully, "I'm not eating anymore! Who cares? I wouldn't come even if you invited me! Humph!" With that, she got up and left.
Everyone had the same question in their minds: it seemed like no one had invited her!
Ding Anni was especially moved. "Dad always says I'm immature. Look at this, there's someone even more immature than me! She doesn't even know her place! If I told Dad, would he praise me?" she thought. "Forget it, I'd better not say anything. How could I compare myself to someone like that!"
Seeing that the girl had stormed off in anger, and with the adults busy toasting and no one paying attention, Li Wei, being close to the door, quickly tugged at Luo Da: "Um, will something happen to her? She ran away alone, should we go out and check on her?" A fragile young girl, running away from home, and then... well...
Luo Da initially intended to ignore it, but then noticed Luo Er couldn't help but burst out laughing. He glared at him and said, "Go check what's going on, make sure the car doesn't get hit!"
Luo Er was once again the unlucky younger brother. He immediately hung his head and muttered, "It's me again. She's not blind..." But he couldn't disobey his brother. His brother's fists were not to be trifled with. When he and Xiao San misbehaved, he had given them a good beating, euphemistically called "getting used to their skin."
Luo Er reluctantly followed them out. Sigh, next time he's reincarnated, he wants to be the boss.
With Cousin Zhong gone, everyone was back to their own group, and the meal became more relaxed and enjoyable. Li Wei looked at the food on her plate and realized that the girl had already taken some of it. How could she possibly eat it? She simply dumped it all onto Luo Er's empty plate.
Li Wei quickly finished eating. Then she went over and pushed Dingding away from the stroller next to her aunt, letting her aunt have a proper meal. As she pushed it to the door, she remembered they were on the second floor. Turning back, she called to Li Lianhui, who was sidling up to her grandmother, "Xiaohui, come help!"
Without a second thought, Li Lianhui called out to his brother Hua, who hadn't finished eating, "Brother Hua, my sister is calling you."
Luo Da glanced at Li Wei, wiped his mouth with a napkin, got up, and walked over. Without asking, he picked up the stroller and went out the door. Aside from this kind of physical labor, he really didn't know what else Li Xiaoming needed him for.
Li Wei and Luo Da took Dingding downstairs. Jingxiang Garden is famous not only for its delicious food, but also, and perhaps more importantly, for its prime location—it's just across the street from the park.
The two crossed the road and entered the park. This was the park's north gate. Beyond a large grove of trees was the zoo area. Li Wei thought for a moment, then looked at Dingding, who was sitting in his stroller munching on a biscuit, and asked Luo Da, "How about we go see the monkeys?"
Luo Da glanced at his watch: "We need to hurry. Otherwise, we won't be able to find them after they finish eating."
Li Wei glanced around and found the sign. The nearest one should be the yak, and then the monkey cage. So she said, "Okay, let's hurry up. Let's take a look at the yak first, and then check out the monkey cage before heading back." Ding Ding should like lively and active little monkeys.
Luo Da pushed the cart, and the two quickly arrived at the yak shed. Unexpectedly, there were also antelopes and camels next to it. But from a distance, the smell of cow dung, sheep dung, or camel dung wafted over. Li Wei looked at Ding Ding, who didn't seem to react, so she said to Luo Da, "Let's not go see the yaks and the others. We don't want to bother Ding Ding with the smell. Let's turn over there and go see the monkeys."
With the traffic police directing traffic, Luo Da, the driver, had no choice but to turn on his turn signal and follow the signs to the monkey cage.
The monkeys' situation was much better. A huge wire mesh cage stood there, with artificial hills, small trees, and swings inside, where a group of monkeys were having a great time playing around.
Because it's the weekend, there are many people out and about, especially families with children. They all take food and feed it to the monkeys who are used to being fed handouts through the cage holes.
Li Wei and the others hadn't brought any food, except for the cookie crumbs Dingding was chewing on. Li Wei carefully picked up Dingding: "Dingding, let's go see the little monkeys, okay? Remember, monkeys, monkeys."
Dingding can't speak yet, but Li Wei thinks she should be able to say simple words in a few months. She's heard that girls start talking earlier.
Dingding and Liwei were quite familiar with each other, so they didn't cry or fuss. Dingding continued licking his biscuits, but his eyes were fixed on the little monkey sitting in a hanging tire on the cage wall above him.
With so many people, Li Wei felt it would be difficult to squeeze in. She also had to take care of Dingding to prevent him from being bumped or squeezed. Besides, Dingding was quite heavy now, eating and sleeping all the time, and was chubby and fair-skinned, probably weighing over 30 pounds.
Li Wei called out to Luo Da, who was watching a little boy feeding monkeys peanuts, "Hey, Luo Jianhua, why don't you hold Dingding? She's too heavy."
Luo Da came over, took Ding Ding, took the cookie from Ding Ding's hand, patted off the cookie crumbs, and then put Ding Ding on his shoulders and squeezed into the crowd.
Dingding, who was initially a little unhappy because his cookies had been confiscated, suddenly looked down on him and forgot about the cookies, laughing heartily.
Li Wei looked at the tattered biscuits in her hand and decided to give them to the monkeys, wondering if they would find them unappealing.
The holes in the monkey cage are only about the size of an egg. You can throw in enough biscuits, but because there is a distance of about one meter between the monkey cage and the visitors, there are iron bars to prevent visitors from directly contacting or harming the monkeys.
Li Wei tried twice but failed to get the cookie in. Luckily, there were small wooden sticks nearby that others had used, so she could use them to get the cookie back in, making it reusable. As for the slight dirtiness, everyone ignored it.
Li Wei threw the cookie twice but failed. The monkeys on the other side were getting impatient, watching Li Wei scratch her head and making Ding Ding laugh. Luo Da couldn't stand it anymore and said, "Give me that thing." That thing probably can't be called a cookie anymore.
Li Wei held a corner of the cookie and handed it to Luo Da, who took it and gestured the distance. Then he flicked the cookie straight out, through the monkey cage eye, and hit the monkey squarely. He probably used a bit too much force, because the little monkey staggered.
Dingding saw this and happily bounced up and down on Luo Da's head, clapping his hands and laughing.
Taking the opportunity, Li Wei taught her again, pointing to the monkey and saying, "Monkey. Monkey..."
Seeing Dingding happy, Luo Da also became interested. He walked to a small stall that sold monkey snacks and bought a bag of peanuts and a bag of biscuits. He then started feeding the monkeys, circling around the cage with Dingding on his head.
Because of their high success rate, the monkeys also got a high rate of food. After feeding them only a few times, several monkeys started following them around, which the tourists found quite amusing. Li Wei, however, was so happy she couldn't straighten up. To her, Luo Da looked like the Monkey King, and Dingding, sitting on his shoulder, was definitely a rather chubby little monkey.
Li Wei was leaning on the railing, laughing heartily, when a woman holding a child approached her and said enviously, "Your husband is so considerate. He's so young and already so good to you. I saw him holding the baby the whole time. He seemed quite happy. Unlike my husband..."
Li Wei froze.
I glanced at his clothes: jeans, a long-sleeved T-shirt, and a vest. Then I looked at the woman; she was also wearing jeans, a long-sleeved T-shirt, and a vest.
Over there, Luo Da, with his penis on his head, was laughing so hard he couldn't stand up straight.
Ding Ding, feeling the seat bobbing up and down like a roller coaster, laughed heartily.
Li Wei pushed Dingding's stroller, but Dingding, who was used to sitting in a human-shaped chair, refused to get down from Luo Da's shoulders and sat there eating monkey biscuits. She had fed the monkeys her own, and now it was her turn to eat the ones Luo Da had bought for the monkeys.
The two began their return to the hotel. On the way, Li Wei was still feeling down and asked Luo Da, "Do you think I'm that old? She looks like she's over thirty, and I'm only half her age. How could she tell that I'm...you know?"
Luo Da didn't want to say anything, and he didn't know what to say. He just thought it was funny, but he couldn't resist Li Wei's persistent questioning. After thinking for a while, he finally said, "Maybe it's because you're wearing the same clothes as her, and she feels like she has something in common with you."
Li Wei was even more frustrated: "How are they the same? The colors and styles are completely different. Is hers prettier than mine? Besides, she can't just generalize and say I look old!" Age is a woman's second face.
Seeing that Luo Da remained silent, Li Wei glanced at Ding Ding, who was eating monkey biscuits, and suddenly said, "I think it's not that I look older, it's mainly that you look too mature and older. I feel like you've looked like an old man since you were little. With a child like this, I must be suffering because of you two. Yes, that must be it. Sigh, it's really frustrating!"
Luo Da—
Seeing that Li Wei seemed to have suffered some major blow, Luo Da thought it was nothing, a small matter, was it really that big of a deal? He wanted to say something to comfort Li Wei, but he really didn't know what to say.
Only after crossing the street and entering the hotel did he manage to squeeze out a sentence: "Actually, many people in the countryside get married quite early, right? That woman probably thought the same thing."
Hearing this, Li Wei became even less happy: "I have to ask Li Na when I have time. How did she choose clothes for me? They make it obvious at a glance that I married and had children early in the countryside. They make me look fat, old, and unsophisticated!"
Luo Da—
