Chapter 284 What are you two doing?!
On the afternoon that Xu Heping helped look after the two little ones, Xu Kang and Xu Le, Xu Heping actually got to know all the children, big and small, in Hezibao.
When Xu An and Li Sixin returned from their inspection of the village, they saw that the cement open space in front of the village office was full of children of different ages.
Not to mention the other children, even Xu Kang and Xu Le sat obediently on the ground, listening to Xu Heping tell everyone the story from the picture book. They were all completely focused, and among the dozens of people, not a single one noticed the presence of Xu An and Xu Le.
"...In the end, the clever crow drank the water in the bottle, and drank it to its heart's content, because it had used its brains to get the water, and it tasted especially sweet!"
The picture book has been turned to the last page, and the story has ended.
Just as Xu Heping was about to pick up another picture book, he looked up and saw Xu An standing at the back of the children. He immediately smiled at the children and said, "Okay, that's all for today. I'll tell you a new story after dinner tomorrow night. Everyone, go home now!"
ah----
The children's dissatisfied voices echoed throughout the village, all clamoring for Xu Heping to tell them another story before they went home!
"Let's go back, it's time to eat," Li Sixin said loudly upon seeing this.
Upon hearing this, the children all turned around and scattered almost instantly upon seeing Li Sixin. Only Xu Ping and Le remained on the cement ground, unaware of what had happened.
Because of a free bag of potatoes, a boy who loves crispy potato chips, and a flyer stuck to the bottom of the bag, the owner of the hot grilled noodles got the idea to sell crispy potato chips as well, and put this idea into action.
Just when everyone thought they had gained something today and would fight again tomorrow, the sound of 'patter patter' footsteps rang out from nearby, along with the sounds of two women blaming each other.
Before the potatoes in the basin were washed clean and packaged into portions of eight ounces each, the owner of the hot noodles took out his phone and sent a message to the boy who had come to the stall on the seventh day to check if there were any large potatoes with crispy rice crust.
"What do those two do?"
"It's all Xiao Zhuang's fault. He insisted on saying that the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day were bad days and dragged us out to drink, which wasted our time."
"There are only a few buttons, can't we just try them all?"
As bubbles appeared, the liquid inside the tube rose at a rate visible to the naked eye...
Snap—Snap snap snap—
"elder brother!"
Before they even lay down on the bed, the two big guys suddenly perked up and started chattering away, talking from the time they came down from the mountain that morning until they listened to Li Sixin tell stories that morning.
"elder brother!"
"......"
'Damn mosquitoes, there are so few! I should have brought mosquito coils!'
"Slow down, slow down, it's already past eight o'clock. If we wait until seven o'clock for these small greenhouse farmers to come and work, there will be people everywhere, and we'll be in trouble if we leave."
"Naughty, naughty, naughty, brother promised, so the two of them should close their eyes and go to sleep obediently, isn't that naughty?" Xu An tucked the blankets around the two of them again.
"How can you blame Xiao Zhuang? You've called him bad several times already..."
"That machine is all in English, can he understand it?"
"......"
"What's wrong? Are you sleepy? Why are you still sleeping? I'm sleepy, I want to sleep." Bai Lun stretched out his arm and turned the two of them back over, covered us with the blanket, patted them hard, and said clearly, "Go to sleep, we'll talk again when you wake up tomorrow."
The two continued calling out, seemingly oblivious to the urge to sleep. Xu An struggled to stay awake, opened his eyes, and looked at them: "Hmm, what's wrong? I'm listening."
"They misunderstood, Sister Huahua. We were talking about outside the village, right? There aren't many big animals outside the village. How about your brother takes him to see the big animals outside the village tomorrow? Do you want to see a big pig, a goose, or a duck?"
Two pale figures carrying two small boxes hurriedly retreated into the factory through a gap in the side wall and disappeared from everyone's sight.
"It was a mistake. There was less mud and sand, but the weight was several pounds less than what we bought. They also didn't mix in small potatoes to deceive us. The shop owner was really honest."
Xu An smiled but didn't reply. He took two steps back, hugged Xu Ping and Le, and lifted them up from the ground with a strong pull.
As time passed, the full moon slid from the center of the sky to the east, and its radiance became even more beautiful.
"Pinky promise!" The two big guys grabbed Xu An's arm, mistakenly found my thumb, hooked all eight thumbs together and shook them before they smiled with satisfaction: "Brother promised you, you can go back on your word!"
Because they had so much fun all day, the two of them were dozing off together before dinner, their big heads bobbing up and down like they were fishing. Xu An, being a bit cheeky, started chatting and left first to take us back to our room to rest.
"That doesn't make sense..."
"Hey..." Xu Kang waved his hand helplessly: "They're all naughty monkeys. They can take advantage of you if you're serious on a regular basis, but they'll be afraid of you if you don't scold them enough."
"How about this, tomorrow I'll ask Secretary Li if they're bad or not. If Secretary Li says no, I'll take them to the school to see the big chickens, ducks, geese, and pigs; if they aren't, we'll look outside the village, there are also some bad chickens, ducks, and pigs raised outside the village!"
