Yang Yufen didn't take any money from selling the sesame cakes. The idea wasn't hers, and it didn't take up any of her space. In fact, because the sesame cakes were sold as a side dish, the shop's business was even better.
Holidays are supposed to be fun for kids, if they don't always want to go play in the water.
Yang Yufen took a rattan cane and whipped Da Bao and Er Bao's bottoms.
When she thought about what someone had just told her, Yang Yufen's heart almost stopped.
"Aunt Yang, are you home? Quick, come with me! A child has fallen into the water, a whole group of children! Your eldest and second children are here too! A child is drowning!"
Yang Yufen practically ran all the way, and the first thing she saw was Da Bao, who was being held in Commander Liao's arms.
Da Bao was put down by Commander Liao. Er Bao was there too, but the two children were short and among a group of children, so I didn't notice them earlier.
Yang Yufen glanced at the water and saw that the person was naked from the waist down and was still dripping with water. Then she looked and saw that there was no one in the water, but there was a child lying there and someone was pressing on the child to save him.
Yang Yufen stepped forward and pulled the twins over, saving them the trouble of taking off their pants, and then casually started whipping them with a rattan cane.
Several slaps were delivered, giving the child no chance to react; the grandmother didn't even have time to call out.
The eldest child started crying, and the second child had already been beaten.
"Wow wow wow~"
The crying started, and then, as if they had just realized what was happening, the other adults started whipping people with belts and slapping them, and the shore was filled with the sound of cracking.
"He's alive! He's alive!"
The child on the ground suddenly spat out several mouthfuls of water, and the adults immediately relaxed.
Yang Yufen also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Slap slap~"
Though late, she arrived. The child's mother, who had been kneeling and crying beside her child, saw that the child had woken up. She hugged the child and cried for a while, then slapped him twice on the bottom.
Another deafening cry was heard.
The younger ones got beaten, and the older ones all hung their heads. A group of children, ranging from three to thirteen years old, were all there. The family compound was packed with people.
When Professor Wen arrived, he was holding Xiao Bao in his arms and was out of breath.
"Slow down, give me the child."
Yang Yufen quickly reached out and took Xiaobao from him.
"Okay, give me the rattan cane you're holding."
Professor Wen handed the child to Yang Yufen, his gaze falling on the rattan cane in Yang Yufen's hand.
Yang Yufen gave up the rattan cane.
Hu Zhenghao was beaten by his grandmother, but he didn't dare to cry.
"Go back and write a self-criticism, which must be no less than 800 words."
Hearing this, Hu Zhenghao burst into tears. His grandmother had never laid a hand on him before; she was so gentle! Now, not only had she learned to hit him from Grandma Yang, but she was also making him write a self-criticism! Eight hundred words! Eight hundred words!
Professor Wen rarely got so angry after slapping the child. Even though she felt sorry for him, she pretended not to see the red marks.
"Yes, Grandma, I know I was wrong."
Hu Zhenghao cried as he found Da Bao and Er Bao's clothes and dressed his two younger brothers in them.
Among the group of children, Wang Xing was the only one who wasn't beaten up. This was because Wang Xing had fallen into the water as a child and had a trauma, so he stayed on the shore. It was also because Wang Xing was the first to discover someone drowning.
The group of children swam one by one into the deep water, like the Calabash Brothers rescuing their grandfather. It was only because Wang Xing thought of calling for an adult and quickly ran to get help that they were rescued in time.
This incident caused quite a stir, and Yang Yufen didn't go to the noodle shop for three days in a row.
"Both the child and the adults are at fault. With the weather getting hot, not only do children like to play in the water, but adults do too. Why don't we build a swimming pool?"
That night, Commander Liao and Dean Hu discussed the matter together.
While we should discourage children from playing near water, we should also ensure they have places to play. Swimming is a good way to exercise, and we shouldn't condemn it outright.
