Chapter 68 Embarrassing Moments
Chapter 68 Embarrassing Moments
When Xu Qingfan was picking snails, he discovered that crayfish were indeed becoming rampant in southern Guangdong Province. He had only picked a dozen or so snails when he found two crayfish in the mud.
He tried to dig a hole to escape, but naturally, he easily picked it up.
"Keep an eye out, there might still be crayfish in the mud. See if you can collect a few pounds, we'll cook crayfish for lunch!"
Xu Qingfan held up the crayfish in his hand and showed it to them.
"What is Xiao Fan's crayfish?"
Where can I find crayfish?
Xiao Ruanwen and Xia Xiaoxiao came together. One of them genuinely didn't know what crayfish were, while the other came to see if the crayfish were plump.
"Hey, this is a crayfish. Ruan Wen, be careful not to get pinched! This counts towards your prize in the competition!"
"Brother Qingfan, Ningning caught a crayfish too!" Lin Wanning happily held up a bright red crayfish to show off.
"Wanning is awesome, we won the championship!"
"Win the championship!"
"We're definitely going to win!" Xiao Ruanwen put the crayfish into her bucket and quickly ran away with Xiao Xiao.
"Damn it, Ruan Wen, you stole something!"
"Who stole something? This little crayfish said it likes me, and Xiaoxiao heard it too!"
"Yes, I heard it."
Xia Xiaoxiao smiled secretly. As the saying goes, evil people will be punished by evil people, and Xiao Fan will be punished by Ruan Wen!
Wu Lingyu quietly walked over and then quietly poured a few crayfish from her bucket next to Xu Qingfan.
Xu Qingfan looked up at Xiaoyu, blinked, and Wu Lingyu bit her lip shyly, then lowered her head and ran off with the bucket.
"Xiaoyu, what are you doing over there? Come here, there are so many snails here!"
"Okay, coming!"
Xu Qingfan picked up a few crayfish from the ground and laughed, "No matter how many snails you have, it can't stop the fact that there's a traitor in your team!"
Bah! Xiaoyu isn't a mole; she's just a double agent!
...
Besides picking snails and crayfish, you can also find quite a few river shrimp on the riverbank.
However, the river shrimp in the fishpond are not very big and are scattered, so picking them one by one in the mud is really inefficient.
Therefore, the five players who were in the middle of the game didn't have time to pick it up.
Xu Qingfan actually discovered many traces of eels, but catching eels is a skill that requires expertise; those who don't know how to do it can't tell where the eel burrows are.
Xu Qingfan didn't waste his time on this, because he didn't understand it either.
"Brother Qingfan, Brother Qingfan, Brother Qingfan!"
"They're here! They're here!"
Lin Wanning suddenly called his name three times. Xu Qingfan understood that this usually meant Wanning had encountered something wonderful and wanted to share it with him immediately.
"Holy crap!"
"Hey, you guys don't need to pick it up anymore, Wan Ning and I have already finished the match!"
Xu Qingfan bent down to pick up the large turtle that Wan Ning had stepped on, and held it up, shouting loudly.
Lin Wanning looked at his dirty hands, wondering how he could put his hands on his hips, when he remembered he was wearing Qingfan's clothes: "Gurgle!"
"Wow!"
"What a huge turtle!"
The three of them ran over to watch. Xiao Ruanwen even tried to poke it, but the turtle almost turned around and bit her finger.
"It's a big soft-shelled turtle that Ningning caught!" Lin Wanning gestured the outline of the turtle with his hands, gesturing and gesturing, until the outline gradually became bigger than a basketball.
In Cantonese, big fish are also called "water fish," which is easy to understand because they mostly live in underwater mud.
However, in Cantonese, "soft-shelled turtle" also has the meaning of a great injustice, because when a soft-shelled turtle is slaughtered, it will keep squirting water as long as you hold it down.
Just like those who get scammed, they are tricked into giving away their money for nothing.
"You've lost, haven't you? Do you admit defeat?" Xu Qingfan was worried that the turtle would escape, so he decided to bring this opportunity ashore first.
"Do you submit? Do you submit?" Lin Wanning clapped rhythmically, following happily behind.
"So what if we lost? We're not sore losers, Xiaoxiao and Xiaoyu, right?"
"Um!"
"And Xiao Fan, you even did an arm-wrestling match last time..."
"Ahem, I think we agreed to collect snails and crayfish before the competition, but the turtle wasn't included in the agreement, so let's not count it."
Xiao Ruanwen's eyes lit up. So this trick works so well! Wouldn't she be able to easily control Xiao Fan in the future?
"No, it has to count. We're not sore losers. Xiao Fan, just tell me what punishment you want!"
"Then you'll have to wash the dishes as punishment. Ruan Wen, you and Xiao Yu will wash the dishes at noon. Don't make Xiao Xiao wash the dishes!"
"Why can't Brother Qingfan let Xiaoxiao wash the dishes?"
"My family originally had ten bowls, but after Xiaoxiao helped wash the dishes, we now have twenty bowls."
"How come there are ten more? Does Xiao Xiao know magic?" Xiao Ruanwen exclaimed.
Lin Wanning and Wu Lingyu's faces were also filled with shock, while Xia Xiaoxiao stared at him speechlessly. Instead of talking about his own embarrassing history, he insisted on talking about hers.
"Because she smashed all ten bowls, and then bought twenty new bowls."
Wu Lingyu, Xiao Ruanwen, and Lin Wanning wanted to laugh, but Xia Xiaoxiao's expression wasn't good, so the three of them held back.
"When Xu Qingfan was little, he used shower gel to bathe the goldfish, which killed all the goldfish in the tank. His uncles and aunts beat him for it!"
"Another time, it was winter, and Xiao Fan's clever brain came out again. He thought the fish in the fish tank must be very cold in winter, so he changed their water temperature. All the fish were scalded to death, and he got a beating from his uncle and aunt again!"
People from the South should all know that water represents wealth, and keeping fish in a fish tank in the living room is to attract wealth. However, Xu Qingfan killed the fish twice, and coincidentally, his family was going through a period of bad luck, so he deserved the beating.
"Hahaha!"
The three who were barely holding on just now are now finding it hard to keep up. Who would have thought that Xiao Fan, who seems so smart, would do something so embarrassing!
"It's okay, Brother Qingfan, Ningning won't tell anyone."
[Shouldn't Yi Yi be considered someone else?]
"Xiao Fan, it's okay. My grandparents also often bathe the chickens, ducks, and geese. Every time they are bathed, all their feathers fall out, and then I shed sad tears."
"You're clearly drooling!"
"Hahaha!"
Wu Lingyu laughed very happily. Many times when everyone was laughing, she laughed along with them, but she didn't really understand what everyone was laughing about.
This time, however, she understood. It turned out that Fan Ge also did embarrassing things, but unlike her, he didn't remember the embarrassing things he did for a long time and would shrink back every time he thought about them.
"Once I carried star fruit to the market to sell, but I didn't dare to call out to them. No one bought star fruit all afternoon, so I carried the star fruit home after dark."
Wu Lingyu didn't want Fan Ge to be too embarrassed, so she shared her embarrassing experience from not long ago.
However, Xu Qingfan, Xia Xiaoxiao, Xiao Ruanwen, and Lin Wanning did not burst into laughter after hearing this; instead, they all fell silent.
Wu Lingyu was so nervous that she forgot to breathe. She would rather be ridiculed by everyone than have an awkward silence whenever it was her turn to speak.
Fortunately, you can always trust Brother Fan.
This was the only thought in Wu Lingyu's mind at that moment.
"Xiaoyu, next time you go to sell starfruit, call me! I'm really good at hawking them: 'Starfruit for sale! Three yuan a pound, ten yuan for three pounds! If you don't like them, you don't have to pay!'"
"Ningning wants to sell star fruit too!"
"Three yuan a pound? Three pounds is clearly nine yuan! Xiao Fan, can't you even do math?!"
"So, Ruan Wen, you've never run a business before, have you? How can you attract customers to buy things if you don't deliberately call out the wrong name like that?"
"Holy crap, oh yeah!"
Wu Lingyu doesn't remember what else people said after that, but this day holds a significant place in her life.
