Chapter 3
Nine people sat in a circle on the leaves, and Xin Xiu said to the children: "Everyone will report their age, let's sort it according to age. Let's first say, I'm fifteen years old, the oldest, and the first to come here, so I should be my elder sister."
The arrogant young master put on his face and spoke again: "Why, I..."
Before he finished speaking, the talkative boy with broken arms raised his hand and shouted: "Sister! I am fourteen years old, can I be my second brother!"
Xin Xiu: "Okay, you are the second child!"
The arrogant young master didn't care about anything else and quickly said, "Then I'll be the third brother!"
The cold girl seemed to dislike him and raised her chin coldly, "I am thirteen years old, are you older than me?"
The arrogant young master stiffened, "I... twelve."
Xin Xiu: "Okay, then you rank fourth."
She looked at the little village girl and the little beggar again, "Who is older?"
The two of them talked about their age at the same time. The little beggar was 11. Her voice was soft and weak. Xin Xiu thought to herself, it turned out that this was a little girl. The little village girl was ten years old and ranked sixth. Next were the nine-year-old fat jade girl and the eight-year-old fat golden boy, and the youngest little boy was the last one.
Xin Xiu was at ease and became the boss. She thought that these children were easy to fool. Even the arrogant young master who seemed the most difficult to solve was sorry for his personality. He lived like a stupid son of a landlord's family, and could not even have sparks. She thought that if someone was dissatisfied, she would fight and then determine the boss's position.
As a twenty-six-year-old adult, Xin Xiu was not ashamed of a group of easy-to-be cheated children.
She led everyone to work hard, "Second, you know how to swim, so go and ask the big fish below if you are willing to take us for a ride."
When the hero Yang Guo left after orders, Xin Xiu turned to the village girl again, "Lao Liu, you can row a boat, take the third and fourth brothers there to pick a few petals to see if it can be used as a boat."
The little village girl said obediently and walked towards the giant flower. The cold girl followed her without saying a word. The reluctant young master could only mutter and follow her.
The fat girl ran to Xin Xiu and said in a slight voice: "Boss, what am I doing?"
Xin Xiu touched her cheek and asked her and Fat Jintong to look at Xiaojiu, "Be good, you three are playing here."
She took the remaining little beggar to the edge of the leaves to see if there was any other way to leave.
Suddenly there was a huge rustling sound of water from the dick. A big fish jumped out of the water, threw its tail and fell into the lake and disappeared. Xin Xiu looked at the huge water droplets splashing on the lotus leaves, and then at the dick with a head emerging from the water.
"You didn't reach a consensus with the fish, and you started fighting?"
The second child sniffed, feeling a little aggrieved, "It doesn't listen to me."
Xin Xiu: "What are you afraid of? You have to listen if you don't listen!"
"So, listen to me, let's find a small lotus leaf and break the stems under the water. I just saw aquatic plants under the water, tied them to the fish, and let them drag the lotus leaf away!"
The little beggar said weakly: "Is this really OK? Isn't it good?"
The second child was already excited, "Okay, I'll do it now!"
Xin Xiu also dragged the little beggar into the water and helped pull the lotus stems and water plants.
"Hurry, there is a big fish there, let's entangle it!"
The big fish entangled by the water plants splashed a large splash of water around it, dragging lotus leaves and starting to rush around the lake.
The dick lay on the lotus leaf and shouted, not sure whether it was excitement or fear. Xin Xiu held the little beggar with one hand and hugged Xiaojiu with the other hand. He pulled the golden boy and the jade girl with his left and right legs, and bumped on the lotus leaf.
"No, this driver is driving too hard. Dude, we are going to jump off the car!"
The second child: "I feel good!"
OK, then you can continue to sit on it.
Xin Xiu was quick-witted and rolled into a lotus leaf next to her. The lotus leafs here were stacked with a lotus leaf, soft and fragrant. After so much rush, she didn't hurt. Xiao Jiu was so happy that she giggled, holding Xin Xiu's neck and shouted, "Mom, come again! Come again!"
Xin Xiu pinched Xiaojiu's butt egg, "What a mom, I'm called Boss."
"The second child is not reliable. He is an adventure." Xin Xiu said to herself. Although she wanted to continue riding in the fishing cart, she felt that she was a responsible person. Since she became the boss, she could not just be happy, regardless of the small ones below.
So they should sit on the more stable flower petal boat.
The three reliable village girls over there were already rowing over a boat made of lotus petals. Xin Xiu grabbed a large petal and finally arranged everyone on the boat. Four pink and white petal boats were floating on the water and facing the shore.
The second child was thrown off by the big fish swinging his tail and paddled here to meet them.
The wind was warm here and the temperature was suitable. The three youngest ones were shaking on the boat and simply fell asleep.
The sky was getting darker and there was still a distance from the shore. Boss Xin Xiu decided directly: "Everyone got off the boat and found a lotus leaf to sleep for one night. If you are hungry, you have to find something to eat."
"What's there to eat here?"
"There are lotus seeds. Is that big lotus seed not enough for you to eat?" Xin Xiu naturally pointed to a tall bare lotus pole nearby.
The few people climbed onto the pole of the lotus pole, shaking the lotus pole, hitting and kicking, and finally broke one, dragging it onto the lotus leaves, and struggling it with difficulty.
Thank you for your hard work, this lotus seed tastes really good and is very full. Several people haven't even finished eating two lotus seeds.
The capable little village girl had already pulled the flower petals to make the bed, and a large row of beds were connected together. Seeing Xin Xiu looking at her, the little village girl twisted her fingers, "When I was at home, there were many brothers and sisters in the family, and everyone slept together." She looked at the few people here and hesitated a little: "Are we going to separate?"
Xin Xiu: "No, it's good to just do it."
The little beggar sat alone on the side and whispered: "I'll go there, my body is dirty."
Xin Xiu stood up and lifted the thin girl up with one hand, "If you want to wash it if you are dirty, it's not cold. Let's go, I'll wash it for you."
The little beggar immediately struggled with a look of horror: "No, no need."
Xin Xiu brought her to the water, "Why are you still afraid of taking a shower? Are you a cat? You weren't afraid of slapping in the water before."
Little beggar: "No, I mean I am myself, I wash myself!"
Xin Xiu: "Haha, the little girl is quite shy."
The little beggar was almost crying, "Yes, but I am not a little girl, I am a man, a man."
Xin Xiu relaxed her hands, and the little beggar fell into the water with a thud, and pulled her hands against the edge of the lotus leaf, and an innocent black head appeared.
After tugging at the little beggar's hair, Xin Xiu looked at his little girl's round eyes, as well as thin arms and legs, and thought, is this a boy?
"Hey, you didn't say it earlier." She stood up and shouted: "Second, come and have a shower for Lao Wu, rub it well!"
"Okay!"
Next, Xin Xiu kept hearing the chattering dick over there, saying, "Wow, it's so small, like a little girl hahaha!" Then she said, "Look at this fish, eating the mud rubbed off on you hahahaha! Wait and don't move, I'll rub a big long strip for it!"
When the two little fat men who were asleep on the boat rubbed their eyes and woke up, they found that it was dark and they had not been able to dock. The petal boat was parked on the edge of a lotus leaf, and they were carried off from the boat. At this time, everyone was squeezed into the bed made of petals. The boss found that they were awake and pointed to the ball next to them that was two circles larger than their heads, "Wake up, eat lotus seeds if you are hungry."
Two fat dolls came out of the petal cover, looked at the big lotus seeds in a strange way, and exclaimed countless times, "Wow, it's so big!"
The lotus seed skin has been torn apart, so you can bury your face on it and eat it. The lotus seeds are tender and sweet, and you can bite a large piece of it with just one bite, and the juice splashes all over your face.
When they were full, they went to wash their faces, and the stars in the sky were reflected in the lake and fell at their hands. The night here was not dark at all, because the stars were very bright, and even the lotus next to the lotus leaves were illuminated, like an unreal dream.
For several children, this was an experience I had never had before. The two fat babies who left home for the first time squeezed by the boss and found a sense of security. Xiaojiu had already fallen asleep with her full meal and had no worries at all. She put a short leg on Xin Xiu's leg.
Several older children were unable to fall asleep, especially the cold and talkative little girl. Xin Xiu heard that she was alone in the farthest place and tossed and turned for a long time without falling asleep, so she asked her: "What's wrong with the third brother, can't you sleep?"
The cold girl paused her way of turning over and said softly: "I won't turn over again."
You can tell from this sentence that the girl is very sensitive. Xin Xiuyi said: "I don't dislike you for being quarrels, and I can't sleep." These children just left home today and left the familiar environment, but she left home half a month ago, and even the world is not the same.
"Let me guess, are you homesick?"
The little girl said hatefully: "Who would think of that home! I can't ask for it if I can leave there!" As she said that, her voice lowered again, "But I am unwilling to give up. Why did they give birth to me and want to abandon me? Over the years, I have done my best in everything, but they are still not satisfied. They don't want me because I am not good..."
Xin Xiu crossed her legs, leaned against a big lotus seed and looked at the sky, saying casually: "They don't want you, but the gods want you."
The girl's angry voice disappeared, and she suddenly sat up, and she was enlightened: "Yes, they don't want me, the gods want me, are they even more powerful than the gods!"
The young master next to him who was suspected to be asleep suddenly spoke, "You are right, don't want me, they are stupid, it's not that I'm not bad!"
Maybe it was alarmed by their voices, and a faint light suddenly approached. From a distance, I thought it was a person carrying a lamp. After the thing flew closer, everyone realized that it was a huge firefly. This thing was cute and romantic when it was small, but when it became bigger than a human, it was not so cute.
The cold girl was originally staying at the farthest place. When she saw the boss, a black bug flew over, she screamed in fear, jumped up and ran towards Xin Xiu, and grabbed one of her arms.
The young master was even more miserable because the big worm was flying towards him. When he turned his head and saw a glowing big worm, he was scared to tears and grabbed the second child's arm nearby. The second child, who was unreliable, was eager to catch the big worm: "Second brother, don't be afraid, it's just a bug, I'll wait for the second brother to catch you and play with it!"
The young master immediately let go of him, rushed into the petals, covered his head and shouted in a collapsed manner: "I don't want it!"
Everyone laughed.
The dewdrops in the morning rolled into transparent water droplets on the lotus leaves. Xin Xiu called a few people to get up. They slept in the middle of the night, and their feet and stomachs were casually placed. They got up one by one and gathered next to the water droplets to wash their faces - directly pounced on the huge water droplets.
The few people laughed and played for a while and boarded the Lotus Petal Boat again.
There was a gentle breeze today, allowing them to follow the wind and quickly reach the shore.
...
A young man in flowery clothes next to the big jade bowl put away his fan and swayed leisurely. Caixing lay on the edge of the bowl and smiled: "Senior Brother Yu Feng, you are cheating on them, how can you help them push the boat with the wind?"
Yu Feng's lazy gaze turned behind Caixing, his leisurely expression suddenly froze on his face, and he stood up and bowed: "Master Shen Tu, why are you here?"
Outside the pavilion in the clouds, a white-haired figure appeared quietly.
When he heard the words "Master Shen Tu", all the people around Yu Ben stood up, and they all looked dignified and steady. Even Caixing didn't smile, and stood aside with a stern face.
Shen Tuyu is the twelfth disciple of Lingzhao Immortal, and the most special of the thirty-six disciples of Lingzhao Immortal. For some reasons, the disciples of Shulingshan are a little afraid of him.
Shen Tuyu raised his eyelids and glanced at the honest nephews, without saying anything, threw something into the jade bowl, and then turned around and left slowly without saying a word.
Seeing his back disappear, several people relaxed and looked at the Yuben. "What did Master Shen Tu throw in the sky? Look!"
