Good luck with koi carp

Chapter 77 "Baby Beibei" 6
"The time is coming, has everyone made their own flower ropes?"


The host came to where the children were doing their tasks and asked about their progress in a childish tone.


"It's done!"

"It's made up."

"Uncle, look, this is the flower rope I made."

"So annoying."

……


The children actively showed their results to the host. It must be said that children's imagination is so wild. The flower ropes we wove are all different, which is strangely eye-catching.


Of course, there are also worse failed works, but the children don't care. In their eyes, these are the fruits of their hard work all morning, and they are precious.


"Sister Lili, what are you doing?"


Cheng Yiyi noticed that Chi Li was stuffing a floral rope made of red ropes of various shades, golden bells and safety locks into her pocket, and couldn't help but feel curious.


When they arrived, everyone received a basket, which was used to hold flower ropes and ingredients that would be available later. Why did Sister Lili hide one herself?

No, two.


Seeing Chi Li stuffing a purple and blue flower rope in the other pocket, Cheng Yiyi became even more puzzled.


"This is for mom." Chili pointed with her little finger to the pocket on the left, which contained the red flower rope, and then pointed to the pocket on the right: "This is for grandpa."


It turns out that the little sister wanted to bring gifts to her family.


Cheng Yiyi suddenly realized it at first, and then inspired by her, she also picked out the best one from her completed works and hid it, preparing to give it to her brother later.


It's not that she doesn't miss her parents at home, it's mainly because there are only a few flower ropes made by Cheng Yiyi. If she hides too many, there won't be enough ingredients for the brother and sister to eat today.


Moreover, after learning how to make this thing at home, you can make it yourself without delay in giving gifts to your parents.


Therefore, it is more important to solve the feeding problem of the brothers and sisters at the moment.


Despite her young age, she has a clear head.


After weaving the flower rope, the natural next step was to exchange the ingredients together. The children discussed it among themselves and finally decided to work in groups, so as not to encounter too few people willing to exchange and end up with insufficient ingredients.


This idea came from the eldest Shen Zijun. Children like to listen to older children, so everyone approved his proposal without any objection.


How to group four children is also very simple.


It happened that girls and girls and boys and boys were divided into two teams and set off in two different directions.


"Sister Lili, please follow me closely and don't run away."


Cheng Yiyi held Chi Li's little hand and warned her like a big sister.


Chi Li nodded her little head obediently and responded in a sweet voice: "Okay, Li Li will follow you tightly and don't run around."


The two little sisters came to the first house hand in hand, and shyly poked their heads outside the door of the house, not daring to knock on the door.


Fortunately, the grandma who lived there was feeding chickens in the yard. She noticed two little kids coming outside the door. She couldn't help but stop and asked in a loud voice: "Baby, are you okay?"


The old voice with dialect made the two children a little confused. They didn't quite understand the old woman's language.


But it doesn't matter. With the grandma taking the initiative to speak, the two little guys felt as if they were suddenly given enough courage. They bravely lifted the basket in their hands and asked the grandma bluntly: "Grandma, can we bring this to you?" Want to change to something to eat?”


"What?"


The old woman put down the grain that was being fed to the chickens, held her back slightly, walked over shakily, and looked into the bamboo baskets of the two little children: "Oh, flower rope, what do you want to change?"


She randomly picked a piece of flower rope from the baskets of the two little children, and led them to her kitchen.


In fact, the old lady doesn't think much of these flower ropes. This craft may be a bit rare outside, but in their town it is a common craft that every household can do, just as many people can sew their own clothes.


It was just that she saw that the two little girls were fair, cute, and polite, so she kindly gave them some food.


"What do you want? Eggs? Meat? Fish?"


The old lady opened her refrigerator and generously gave each of her children a few eggs. She also took out a large piece of pork belly, cut it in half evenly with a kitchen knife, gave each child a piece, and then took it out from the freezer. Two big fish that were frozen hard, each of them stuffed one.


"Would you like any more vegetables? There are bean sprouts, cucumber strips, cabbage..."


While mumbling, I took some of everything for the children. This attitude made me want to empty the refrigerator for them.


The old lady was so enthusiastic that the two little guys couldn't handle it, so they could only keep saying thank you.


"Thank you grandma."

"Thank you."

……


After a while, the originally empty bamboo basket was filled to the brim, so heavy that the weak Chili almost couldn't lift it.


Feeling a little embarrassed to take so many things from others, Cheng Yiyi simply gave all the flower ropes she made to the old lady. When Chi Li saw it, she also imitated her.


But the old lady didn't ask for them all, she just took another flower rope from each of them.


"Okay, that's enough. Let's go eat."


The old lady helped Xiaochili carry the basket out of the courtyard and waved goodbye to them.


"Goodbye grandma."

"Bye bye grandma, I wish you health, happiness and a long life."


The last sentence was said by Chi Li. She had been with her grandfather for a long time and had met many old friends. She knew that old people liked to hear such auspicious words, so she said a few words casually.


"Okay, baby, be good, be good."


The old woman was so coaxed that she beamed. After sending the children away, she tremblingly returned to the house with her hands behind her back.


Inside the house, her two twin grandsons were sitting on the floor playing with toys. When they saw grandma coming back, they raised their heads and shouted: "Grandma."


My brother saw his grandma holding something in her hand and curiously asked: "Grandma, what is that?"
"Flower rope, you like it, come here, one for each person, stay safe."


Seeing that her grandson liked it, the grandma tied two flower ropes with the most beautiful colors on their wrists.


It was just an unintentional move at this time, and she could not have imagined that one day in the future, her grandchildren would have an accident and almost die, but in the end they miraculously survived, and the flower ropes on their wrists would automatically break into several pieces. Festival, I can never go back.


At that time, the old lady holding these pieces of flower rope couldn't stop muttering: "Avoid the disaster, prevent the disaster..."


But after the incident, she never mentioned it to anyone again, and even kept it secret from her family. She threw the remaining pieces of flower rope into the stove and burned it to ashes. She pretended that it had not happened and persisted until the secret was revealed Brought into a coffin.


The old man's idea is also very simple.


God favored their family and gave them a great blessing, so they had to know good from evil and wanted more, so living a stable life in the future was the most important thing.


"Sister Lili, how many flower ropes do you have left?"


Cheng Yiyi struggled to carry her basket. She had to lift it up every step she took, and she had to free up one hand to help Chi Li carry her portion.


There was no way, the old lady gave too many things, and they were so heavy that Chi Li was exhausted after lifting them for a while. She couldn't lift them any more, so she could only ask sister Yiyi for help.


But Cheng Yiyi is not much older than Chi Li. Looking at this posture, if the two of them go to change things again, they will not be able to go back. They simply came up with an idea and said: "How about we don't change and go back? These are enough to eat."


She just happened to be able to take the rest home and give it to her parents.


In fact, there are only two left.


Chi Li looked at the last piece of bright yellow and orange flower rope left in her hand, nodded her little head, and gave it directly to Cheng Yiyi: "Sister Yiyi, this is for you."


"For me?" Cheng Yiyi put down the basket in surprise, took the gift from her sister, and put it around her neck.


After putting it on, she shook her head in a showy way and asked the cameraman who was following her, "Does it look good?"


The camera clicked up and down in affirmation.


Cheng Yiyi was very happy to receive the gift, and she reciprocally gave Chi Li the most beautiful flower rope that she had originally planned to give to her brother: "I'll give this to you, can I tie it on your hand?"


"it is good."


Chili stretched out a little hand and asked sister Yiyi to help her tie the flower rope.


This flower rope is colorful and comes in all colors. It may seem a bit messy to adults, but it is very beautiful in the eyes of children.

"It's fastened. Look, looks pretty, right?"

"Beautiful, thank you sister Yiyi."

"you are welcome."


After exchanging gifts and completing the task ahead of schedule, the two little sisters happily embarked on their return journey. In the square where everyone gathered, the parents who had worked hard all morning were taking the fruits of their labor there, walking away from time to time. I looked around to see if my child was back.


Cheng Chang had good eyesight and saw a small figure slowly walking towards him from a distance, dragging two bamboo baskets with difficulty. One of them was particularly familiar. He immediately stood up excitedly and rushed over quickly.


"You're back, are you tired? Let me see what I got in exchange for it?"


"Brother, come and help us get it, it's so heavy!"


As soon as she saw her brother, Cheng Yiyi immediately stopped and put the baskets in their hands on the ground, waiting for her brother to come and get it.


God knows how hard they worked to transport these ingredients all the way back.


"Wow, you guys got so many things!"


Seeing the two people's baskets full of ingredients, including meat, vegetables and fish, the Cheng family couldn't help but change their minds about their sister.


"Lili, are you tired after carrying such a heavy thing? Come on, have a drink of water."


Chi Qing, who was catching up from behind, couldn't help but feel distressed when she saw her daughter's sweaty appearance. She quickly took out the water cup she brought with her and fed her daughter some water, and took out a tissue to wipe her sweat.


Looking at my daughter's harvest, I know how hard she worked today.


"Mom, here it is." Chili raised her little head to let her mother wipe her sweat, while taking out a red flower rope from her pocket and holding it up in front of her.


"Wow, you made this up yourself? Thanks honey."


Every mother would be surprised to suddenly receive a handmade gift from her child. Chi Qing couldn't tell exactly how she felt now, but she could only hug her daughter and kiss her twice with excitement and joy.


The kiss made the little guy giggle, and he stretched out his two little arms to wrap around his mother's neck, and kissed her back with a little pout.


"What about mine?"


Seeing the happy mother and daughter next to her, Cheng Chang was a little jealous. He reached out to his sister and asked for his gift.


"No." Cheng Yiyi pretended to be stupid.


You can't say that your brother's gift was given away by yourself, then he must not kill her.


"Really? I don't believe it."


Cheng Chang was not a man who liked nonsense, so he started searching and accurately found two ugly flower ropes from his sister.


"It's so ugly." He looked disgusted, but he honestly tied both of them around his wrist.


"Give it back to me! That's for mom and dad!"


Cheng Yiyi picked up her brother's pants and tried to snatch back her flower rope. She was so angry. The smelly brother came to snatch it because he thought the flower rope she made was ugly, so she wouldn't let him succeed.


"My parents definitely don't want you to make it up so ugly. I'm your brother, so I reluctantly accept it. Oh, please don't pull at me, my pants will fall off."


The two brothers and sisters made a lot of noises and provided everyone with a lot of laughs.


In the end, Cheng Yiyi still failed to snatch the flower rope from her brother's hand, and could only scold him angrily: "Smelly brother."


Cheng Chang automatically blocked his sister's yelling and scolding, and looked at the two flower ropes in his hands happily. At the end, he suddenly said: "Actually, it's not bad."
