When Shen Zixi and Qin Shutong entered the room, they saw the younger brothers standing in a row. Hmm! There were three mud monkeys in the middle. . . .
"What's going on? Erbao, you took your brothers to play in the water. How did you guarantee that they would stay together when you went out to play in the afternoon?"
Chen Ziyi reached out and touched his face. Wow, the mud is almost dry. Okay, now that the two sisters are back, it’s a good time to explain it together, so that he doesn’t have to say it a second time later.
"I'm really wronged, Grandma, Second Grandma, sisters, I really am sitting by the river, and disaster comes from the sky."
"We were just sitting by the river watching the fishing and had no intention of getting in the water. Then the fishermen gave our family two fish, and Sheng and his friends took the fish home. Our home is close to the river, so we thought we'd play with them for a while. But they didn't sit there quietly and played with the fish, so they threw it back into the water..."
After listening to Shen Ziyi's explanation and knowing the whole cause and effect, the people sitting on the chairs were speechless and rolled their eyes. Liu Manxue even hid behind Shen Anyan, leaning her head against her husband's back and laughing secretly, she was laughing so hard that she could hardly stand.
The two little guys who were playing with the fish in the water didn't dare tell their brothers and dived in. But this river is different from a swimming pool. The places near the shore are all mud. It can be imagined that Shen Ziyi was indeed dragged down by his two younger brothers. The two of them worked together to pull their brother into the water. Seeing Shen Ziyi's previous experience, the Qin brothers who came later naturally would not be fooled again.
So the world was achieved where Shen Erbao was the only one injured.
When Shen Yiyuan and Shen Anyan were helping a few people take a bath, the two little guys didn't dare to meet their brother's eyes at all, and little Cao Siheng even avoided his gaze.
"Alright, alright, I don't know you two yet. Give me two pieces of chocolate each and this will be over. Otherwise, I won't play with you anymore."
When Cao Siheng and Shen Zixuan heard their brother say this, they immediately laughed at him. Originally, Cao Siheng didn't want to drag his brother into the water, but when he saw Xiao Guazi pulling his brother's hand so hard, he also used some strength. He didn't expect that everything happened so out of control.
For dinner, we made cold cucumber salad, scrambled eggs with green onions, braised eggplant, stir-fried cauliflower, and the staple food was leek dumplings. There were more than ten people, adults and children, and they all ate a delicious meal.
The base of the yard wall still had mosquito-repellent grass planted by Shen An Ning many years ago. In addition, each of them carried a mosquito-repellent sachet, so after dinner, there were not many mosquitoes when they sat in the yard to cool off.
Seeing the children return to their rooms after dinner and change into long-sleeved shirts and long pants, even Xixi and Shutong, Lin Junqi asked, "What are you going to do later? Why are you changing into clothes and wearing comfortable shoes? Are there any activities tonight?"
"Grandma, we've agreed with Xiaoxue and the others to catch cicada monkeys tonight, fry them in oil, sprinkle them with salt, cumin powder, and chili powder. They're so fragrant and delicious. I remember eating them when I was a child, but I haven't had them in Beijing in the past few years. I've almost forgotten how they taste."
When Liu Manxue heard her daughter say this, she looked at her husband, and the couple went into the house to change their clothes. Uncle Qin was also very interested in this matter, mainly because he was tempted by the taste of fried cicada monkeys and was afraid that the children would not catch many, so he prepared to do it himself.
Seeing them like this, Mother Shen went back to the house and got out two flashlights, "Brother, change into a comfortable pair of sneakers and watch where you step." These are things that only young people would do. My brother is over sixty years old, and he is really willing to take risks just for his stuttering.
There was a group of kids, Little Peanut and Little Melon Seed were just there to play. It was impossible to expect them to do any work like catching cicada monkeys. What could two kids who were less than seven years old do? It was good enough if they didn't cause any trouble or hold back.
The group happily carried out their night activities, completely forgetting about the several pairs of parents who were waiting for calls in Beijing.
Shen Anning listened to what her mother said on the phone and learned about her baby's great achievements in the afternoon. "So, Mom, they are all out now, and my uncle has gone with them too?"
"Yeah, they're all a bunch of greedy people. Ningning, Peanut is really different from when you were little. This kid has plenty of energy and strength. He's been running around the village all day, like nothing happened, and he didn't even complain of being tired..."
After hanging up the phone, they didn't hear their brother's voice. The two little guys, Yuanbao and Tangyuan, were in tears. They looked at their mother in their father's arms, feeling very aggrieved.
After searching for his brother for a whole day at home, he didn't see either of his brothers. Grandpa Cao and Grandma Cao comforted the two little guys for a long time and told them that their brother would call them, which made them feel better.
As a result, unexpectedly, the older brothers forgot about their younger brother because of the food. It can be said that the two brothers who had played in the village for a day did not remember each other.
"Oh, you feel wronged, don't you? My brothers are so unreasonable, aren't they? They forgot about our Yuanbao and Tangyuan. When they come back, mom will criticize them."
"Good girl, stop crying. You've cried so many times today. If you cry any more, your eyes will hurt."
"Ah, ah, Guoguo."
Shen Anning wiped the faces of her two sons with a hot towel, "Yeah, brother is bad, right? We agreed to call, but you forgot, right? Let's not be sad anymore."
Accustomed to accompanying their brother every day, the twins were very sad when they didn't see him for a day. A bowl of egg custard was added to their dinner at night, and the two little guys felt better. Cao Jingheng held the two eight-month-old chubby babies in each hand, feeling extremely relaxed.
In their father's arms, the two little babies slept soundly, feeling as if their brother didn't miss them and they wanted to forget him too.
