Chapter 1173 Broken Eyebrow
Looking up and seeing the three of them, Nie Yunge immediately grinned and said with a smile:
"Sister, look what I brought you?"
Pulling the scooter aside, Nie Yunge climbed up the stairs on the side to the terrace.
On the terrace, three big men and one small man surrounded him in an instant.
Ming Xia saw what he was holding and immediately jumped up in surprise:
"Little red fish! Brother, where did you get it from?"
Baichuan originally followed his brothers and sisters, looking around and joining in the fun.
Hearing about the small fish, the chubby boy immediately put all his strength into diving forward:
"Little fish? Where are the little fish? Sister, where are the little fish?"
"Here."
Nie Yunge raised the transparent plastic bag in his hand and said seriously:
"I found it yesterday when I went to the market with my aunt."
The transparent plastic bag was filled with water.
Several small red fish were swimming happily in it, wagging their tails.
The bright colors attracted the children's attention.
Inside the house, Lu Miao waited for a while but didn't see the children come in, so he put down what he was holding and walked closer to the screen door to take a look.
Seeing Nie Yunge, she spoke softly and slightly curved her eyebrows:
"Yun Ge is here?"
"Aunt."
Nie Yunge handed the bulging plastic bag to Ming Xia, straightened his body and greeted her politely:
"Hello, Auntie!"
Lu Miao smiled, turned aside and waved to the children to come into the house:
"Come inside, it's hot outside in the sun."
"oh!"
“Haha~”
At her greeting, the children made playful faces.
He took off his shoes at the door and moved into the house.
The few small fish that Nie Yunge brought were actually not ornamental goldfish.
These are the small wild fish caught by fishermen in the suburbs when they cast their nets in the river.
When they were taken to the market to be sold along with other large and small fish, Nie Yunge happened to see them and picked out those with unique colors and still freshness.
Fish that are a little bigger than an inch look like small fish fry such as crucian carp and carp.
Although it looks ordinary, it has bright colors and children love it very much.
They worked together to get a bucket of water from the bathroom, poured the little fish in, and then gathered around the bucket on the floor, looking down at it.
During this time, we talked to each other and laughed out loud from time to time.
At the age when they are as innocent as flower buds, even if there is nothing interesting to do, the little boys are already extremely happy just to be together.
What's more, I encountered these novel little gadgets in front of me?
The children were murmuring and playing, while Lu Miao sat on the sofa, picking buttons from a small box and looking at them with a sidelong smile.
As she looked, her eyes inadvertently fell on Nie Yunge.
The wound on Nie Yunge's eyebrow had healed long ago.
It's just that the injury was too deep at the time, and there is still a very obvious scar there.
The scar was an oblique cut, cutting the eyebrow into two parts from the end.
The good eyebrows became broken eyebrows.
In later generations, there was a school of wild "beauty", and many young men would deliberately trim their eyebrows into broken eyebrows.
Perhaps because he had seen this before, Lu Miao did not find the scar between Nie Yunge's left eyebrow strange or ugly.
But she knew how the scar came about.
Whenever she thought about how Nie Yunge had suffered so much pain at such a young age, and how the injuries were so serious, she always felt a bit of an indescribable feeling in her heart.
As she was lost in thought, the few creatures that had been surrounding the bucket came over to her.
Lu Miao came back to his senses and met his daughter's eyes full of expectation. He brushed the little girl's black braids and asked:
"What's wrong?"
"Mom, can I raise some fish?"
Mingxia gently kissed her lips and shyly asked her mother for her opinion.
Lu Miao looked around with a gentle smile.
Not only Mingxia, but several other children nearby were also looking at her expectantly.
Lu Miao laughed, scratched the tip of the children's noses one by one and asked:
"Want to raise one?"
A few little chicks nodded as if pecking at rice, looking so well-behaved.
Lu Miao's heart softened, but after a long pause he said:
"You can raise it, but there are a few issues I want to explain to you first."
In an instant, several children looked at her seriously.
Lu Miao smiled and said:
"Although small, fish are also lives. If you raise them, you must be responsible. And if you raise fish, do you know what to feed them?"
Ming Xia's dark eyes on her fair little face were wide open, and it was obvious that she had not considered this issue yet.
The little girl had a blank expression and didn't know what to do. Fortunately, she had two older brothers.
Shi An and Ming Yi immediately expressed their opinions:
"Mom, just let my sister take care of it! I'll help her take care of it. If Xiaochuan can take good care of the puppy, we can definitely take good care of Xiaoyu!"
"Yes, Auntie, Uncle usually digs up earthworms when he goes fishing, and the small fish must eat earthworms. I will dig up earthworms for my sister when I get home from school!"
Baichuan was confused and had no idea what his brothers and sisters were talking about, but it didn't matter. It didn't stop him from expressing his opinion:
"Mom, I dig too!"
Lu Miao couldn't help laughing and nodded easily:
"Then let's raise it, but you can't use a small bucket. Wait for Dad to come back later and ask him to get you a suitable small tank."
“Mom is so nice!”
"Ohh! I can raise fish!"
When the children heard that they could raise fish, they immediately cheered.
Amidst the noise, Nie Yunge quietly took his sister's hand, tilted his head and whispered:
"I'll dig earthworms for you, too."
Ming Xia looked up, raised her eyebrows brightly at him who was a head taller than her, and smiled so hard that her teeth were visible:
"Thank you, brother! I really like the little fish you gave me!"
Nie Yunge's lips opened and closed slightly, his face flushed slightly with embarrassment, and he turned aside, muttering softly:
"It's nothing, just a few small fish... I'll give them back to you when I find better ones in the future."
His voice got lower and lower, and the last sentence was almost lost in the laughter of his brothers and sisters.
After the sun had set a little in the afternoon, Baichuan fell asleep next to his mother's legs on the side of the sofa.
The older children were afraid of disturbing their younger brother, so they moved quietly and discussed in a low voice. Finally, they agreed to go out and play on scooters.
Lu Miao nodded in agreement and told them to play on the roadside.
The children responded by putting on their shoes and going downstairs, but Mingxia came back a short time later:
"Mom~"
"What's wrong, baby, huh?"
Mingxia took off her shoes at the door, walked towards her mother in her white socks, and whispered in her mother's ear in a coquettish manner.
Lu Miao couldn't help laughing after listening carefully. He returned to his room, took out a green two-yuan note, handed it to the little girl, and said:
"Pudding is only sold in Western restaurants. Can you make it yourself, baby?"
Mingxia carefully put away the money, nodded seriously and curled her lips and eyes. Although she was reserved, her smile was always as bright as the sun.
The little girl said sweetly:
"Brothers, come with me."
Western restaurants are different from department stores and supply and marketing cooperative stores.
She didn't dare to do it alone, but she wasn't afraid when her brothers were with her.
Lu Miao nodded in understanding.
There is no need to rush to educate your child. After going there a few times, he or she will naturally adapt to it.
Smiling and touching her daughter's head, she gently instructed:
"Go ahead. Watch out for oncoming traffic when you cross the road, okay?"
Mingxia bared her teeth, nodded, put on her shoes, and ran away again.
