Chapter 184 Catching Crabs



Seeing that they had agreed on it, Lao Li told them the location. It was up to them, but Xiaoyu couldn't go there anyway.

After dinner, Tian Xiaolan suggested going and digesting the food while walking. Zhu Zhi agreed as long as she was under his supervision.

As soon as the two of them went out, they saw Xiaoyu following Tian Xiaolan out and also wanting to go to the river to play.

Zhu Zhi said to the house: "Brother, your baby is out and wants to follow us to the river. You should take him back quickly!"

Lao Li was washing dishes in the kitchen and didn't notice Xiaoyu running out: "Here I come!"

He grabbed Xiaoyu's hand and she lay on the ground, unable to get up. Someone was watching him but he didn't say anything. He just waited for her to lie down and said, "There are a lot of ants on the ground. They want to bite people!"

There were many threats in the words, but even so, Xiaoyu still couldn't get up. She lay on the ground and looked at Tian Xiaolan.

Tian Xiaolan felt desire in her eyes. If she guessed correctly, she was not allowed to go to the river under normal circumstances. It was indeed very dangerous. If she fell in, she would not be able to get out.

But this time, with her here, she won't give her a chance to fall, she can guarantee it.

Tian Xiaolan said: "Uncle Li, let her follow us. She will definitely not run away, right?"

Xiaoyu nodded hurriedly, afraid that her grandfather couldn't see it.

In this way, Master Zhu has to look after two people. He worked for a long time in the morning and has to take the children to catch crabs without much rest. He really has no time to spare.

He had no choice. He was worried about Xiaoyu being alone at home after they left, so he promised her: "Okay, you must be good."

After hearing her grandfather's promise, she got up by herself without anyone helping her and ran behind Tian Xiaolan, fearing that her grandfather would beat her.

Tian Xiaolan pulled Xiaoyu out and said, "Grandpa won't hit you. Next time if you want to do something else, you must discuss it with Grandpa first. You will make Grandpa angry and he will get sick, okay? Don't do this again."

Children should be taught from a young age and not spoiled too much, otherwise they will cause disasters when they grow up, and it will be too late then.

Xiaoyu listened to her carefully. She understood and said a little sadly: "Grandpa, I won't do this again next time. Please don't be angry, okay?"

Hearing his granddaughter's apology, Old Li was also surprised. He didn't expect her to listen to Tian Xiaolan so much. It had only been a short time: "I'm not angry, but you can't just lie on the ground next time, or your clothes will be worn out."

''good.''

It’s agreed that after Uncle Li washes the dishes, we will all go out together.

Xiaoyu followed Tian Xiaolan. As they were walking on the road, those people came back. Seeing that they had all eaten and gone out, Xiaoyu felt a little envious. Why didn't they invite Tian Xiaolan to their home before, so that they could have a free cook.

Thinking about this, he walked up to her. He originally thought that Tian Xiaolan was someone who was not easy to deal with, but he didn't expect her to speak to Xiaoyu gently, as if she was not the one who had quarreled with them before.

The woman looked at them sarcastically and said, "Have you finished your meal? You're eating dragon meat, why are you walking so fast?"

Tian Xiaolan felt uncomfortable when she heard her tone, and retorted: "Of course it's good, it smells delicious, and I'm so full! Unlike some people who are screaming with hunger now."

This little girl is very sharp-tongued and won't give in to them at all.

The woman said this and left angrily: "You can eat it if you want. I don't want to eat it!"

Old Li never said a word to them, but now that someone has moved into his house, he finally stopped talking.

Continue walking forward, then follow Uncle Li across the narrow ridge of the field. After turning a few corners, we finally see a small pond.

There is water in it, and some tadpoles are swimming in it. In the clear little pool, the sunlight shines through the water, making the water shimmer.

Looking closely, I saw something moving under the stone. When I got closer, I saw it was a crab!

Its hard shell is looming in the water, and a few claws occasionally stretch out from the edge of the stone, with eyes looking around vigilantly. As soon as there is any movement, it will quickly retract under the stone, leaving only circles of slightly rippling water.

Before Tian Xiaolan tried to catch it, it hid as soon as it got close.

Zhu Zhi held the basin in his hand, put it aside, rolled up his trouser legs, and went into the water on a flat surface.

He pried the stone open with his hands, revealing the crab inside. He grabbed the crab's back and no matter how it moved, it couldn't pinch him. So he held it firmly and put it into the basin and covered it with the lid.

Seeing how easily he caught it, Tian Xiaolan also tucked her pants up to her knees and took off her shoes.

Zhu Zhi turned around and saw Tian Xiaolan next to him. He frowned and said, "Didn't you say you would listen to me? Why did you come down without asking me?"

Her foot was injured and she didn't take her body seriously at all. He was Tian Xiaolan's master and he had to keep an eye on her and make sure she didn't do anything rash.

Tian Xiaolan smiled and pretended not to understand what he said: "Hey, I think it's too far for the master to pass it over here. Give it to me and I'll put it in."

Chen Dong

Old Li took Xiaoyu to a spacious place and went to discuss things with the village chief.

Zhu Zhi said to her: "Hurry up, Xiaoyu is standing there alone, aren't you afraid? Didn't you promise her grandfather that you would see her?"

Tian Xiaolan said gently: "Xiaoyu, just stand there obediently. If you feel tired, sit down for a while. Let's catch some more crabs for dinner, okay?"

''good.''

Xiaoyu really just stood there motionless.

Seeing how obedient she was, Zhu Zhi had nothing to say.

She found a crab under a larger rock. She carefully moved the rock away, and a green-shelled crab appeared in front of her. The crab was frightened and waved its claws. She tried to catch it with her hands.

As time went by, their harvest grew, and the basin was filled with crabs of all sizes. These crabs crawled around in the basin, making a rustling sound.

Xiaoyu watched from the side and thought it was very interesting and wanted to touch it.

Tian Xiaolan knew what he was going to do when she saw her movements, and called out to her, "Xiaoyu, just stand there and don't move. I'll be right over."
