Mrs. Wang also moved a chair into the yard and sat down. She was sewing clothes with the new cloth she bought today, which she would use to make new clothes for Su Liuer.
Su Liu'er originally said no, but Mrs. Wang said that she was now the boss's wife and could no longer wear her ill-fitting old clothes.
Su Liuer felt that this made sense, so she let Wang Po take care of it.
The method of making a bamboo water gun is very simple. First, remove the bamboo joint at one end of a bamboo, and then make a hole of appropriate size in the middle of the bamboo joint at the other end.
Then use a wooden stick that is smaller than the bamboo tube but longer than the bamboo tube, wrap one end with cloth so that it is about the same size as the bamboo tube when inserted. It is best to have a size that is airtight but still flexible.
"Done! Mom will show you how to play this." Su Liuer picked up the bamboo water gun and drew water from the basin that had been prepared nearby.
Zhu Hongan stood by and watched curiously. Su Liuer picked up the bamboo water gun and pointed it at the vegetable garden in the yard. She held the end of the wooden stick in her hand and pushed it hard!
With a "chiu" sound, a column of water spurted out from the bamboo tube, forming a parabola and falling into the vegetable garden.
Zhu Hongan was stunned. Su Liuer filled the bottle with water again, held it upright and handed it to Zhu Hongan.
"Come on, do it just like Mom did."
Zhu Hongan nodded, looking excited and eager to try. He held the bamboo tube tightly in his little hands and pressed the wooden stick hard.
"Ziz——" water spurted out.
However, Zhu Hongan was much weaker, so the water column was naturally not as violent as when Su Liuer operated it just now. It only fell half a meter away from Zhu Hongan.
But it was enough to excite him.
"Mom! Look!" Zhu Hongan pointed happily at the puddle of water. All his composure was gone, leaving only the liveliness and innocence of a four-year-old child.
Su Liuer touched his little head and praised him, "Son, you're awesome!"
Then he took the bamboo water gun back and said, "But I made it so it's mine. You have to make one for yourself. When you're done, we can have a water fight."
Zhu Honganle nodded happily and went to make his own bamboo water gun. He didn't feel wronged at all and was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling on his little face.
"He's still so young, and you're letting him use a knife and a saw. Aren't you afraid he'll get hurt? What's the harm in making him another one?"
Su Liuer glanced at Zhu Hongan, who was diligently sawing bamboo, and asked, "Wouldn't he be bored if I did everything for him? He wouldn't have any fun making toys. How boring!"
"What a twisted idea." Mrs. Wang snorted and ignored her.
Su Liuer sat on the chair with her legs crossed, and continued to verbally instruct Zhu Hongan on how to make a bamboo water gun.
After all, he was only a four-year-old child, and it took him a full quarter of an hour to make the bamboo water gun.
"Try it yourself." Su Liuer said to Zhu Hongan.
Zhu Hongan nodded and tried to suck up water with great anticipation, but he couldn't suck up any water.
"Mom." Zhu Hongan stood there pitifully, holding the bamboo water gun in his hand, looking at Su Liuer with help in his eyes.
Su Liuer waved to him, took the bamboo water gun he handed over, and took a look at it.
"That's the problem here. Compare it with the one I made to see what the problem is, and then find a way to solve it yourself." Su Liuer returned the bamboo water gun to Zhu Hongan.
Zhu Hongan had a lot of confusion in his little head, but Su Liuer asked him to solve it himself, so he didn't cry or make a fuss, but obediently took the two bamboo water guns to compare.
The little body squatting there looked so weak and helpless that Mrs. Wang couldn't bear it. She glared at Su Liuer and went back into the house.
"Do it well. Mother will go back to the house to get you a glass of water." Su Liuer touched Zhu Hongan's head and went back to the house.
