Chapter 349: Chapter 349: Camping The content of this speech undoubtedly made a lot of sense, but at this moment, Bo Jingshen felt that his brain just couldn't... couldn't take in these truths for the next little while.
Buzzing in his head were only two words-Ah Shen.
"What did you call me?" Bo Jingshen asked.
Su Lu coughed lightly, "If you didn't hear it, let it be." "I heard it, I heard it, I just want to hear it again," Bo Jingshen smiled.
Su Lu glanced at him and then gestured, "Zhao Xiaole, chere." Zhao Xiaole immediately ran over, still holding a box of black truffle chocolates, "What's up? Does it hurt? Shall I blow on it for you?" Zhao Xiaole thought Su Lu was in pain because of the cut on her finger and looked worried with furrowed little brows.
Su Lu shook her head, "No, con, call him." "Ah Shen?" Zhao Xiaole looked at Bo Jingshen, "What's wrong with Ah Shen?" Bo Jingshen felt quite helpless. He wasn't longing to hear the little guy call him Ah Shen; his heart ached for her to call him that.
"Ah Shen, you help Su Xiaolu blow on it, she's afraid it hurts!" Zhao Xiaole directed.
"Aye, as you command." Bo Jingshen held Su Lu's hand, applied antibiotic ointment, and gently blew on it.
Her fingertip felt ticklish, and Su Lu was somewhat uncomfortable.
And because of this interlude, by the tthey finished setting up the tent and the barbecue grill and had everything ready, neither father nor son wanted to leave Su Xiaolu's side, both just stayed by her.
Su Lu felt very helpless, "Hey... why are you both sticking to me? Didn't we say we were going to play in the water? Didn't we say we were going fishing? Aren't you going anymore?" Zhao Xiaole certainly still wanted to go, but he glanced sideways at Bo Jingshen.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter exchanging a look with Bo Jingshen, who could tell what thousands of words were contained in that glance between grandfather and grandson.
In any case, after that exchange of looks, they seemed to have cto a tacit agreement and both shook their heads, "We're not going." Su Lu had originally brought out an iPad, planning to draw spictures on it with her Apple Pencil. After all, the scenery here was truly nice, and the cool breeze was soothing, not to mention that even sipping cold drinks was quite pleasant. Even a cut finger couldn't dampen her good mood.
But the two of them were sitting one on each side of her like guardian deities.
This made Su Lu quite resigned, and she sighed softly and stood up, "Alright then, I'll go." As soon as she got up, Zhao Xiaole becanxious, "Hey Su Xiaolu, where are you going?" "I'm going to play in the water, to fish," Su Lu said.
Only then did the grandfather and grandson follow her to the creek. The camping site was next to a crystal-clear stream with a small waterfall not far away. The waterfall cascaded down to form a pool, and the water flowed down into the stream.
In short, the water was nice, and there were fish, with quite a few people already playing there.
Su Lu also soaked her feet by the stream. It was only because she cthis way that the father and son had no choice but to follow.
And since they came, they might as well bring all their gear-the fishing rods, as well as Zhao Xiaole's swimming goggles with a snorkel.
Anyway, Zhao Xiaole looked quite happy and spirited, ready to head straight for the small pool.
Su Lu said, "Zhao Xiaole." She only called out once, and Zhao Xiaole obediently hurried to say, "I know, I know, I'll be careful! I've put on my life jacket." "Where's your wristband?" Su Lu asked.
"I've got the wristband on too!" Zhao Xiaole shook his right hand.
"Okay then, go play," Su Lu nodded in approval.
Bo Jingshen asked her from the side, "Should I go with him? I'm not feeling too easy about this." "We'll just watch from the sidelines. He's very smart, he plays with a good sense of measure, and besides, he's wearing a life jacket and a wristband. He'll be fine. As children grow up, they need to learn to fly on their own. Instead of keeping them from facing any dangers, it's better to let them confront it and learn how to protect themselves amidst it." Bo Jingshen was silent for a few seconds before nodding, "You make sense. I started teaching the kid too late, after all, I'm not as good as you." Su Lu didn't make a sound, even though she said that, no one took the child's safety as seriously as she did. Her eyes could barely leave Zhao Xiaole.
Xiaolu swam and frolicked in the small pond, with Su Xiaolu constantly tense at the side.
Sometimes, when Zhao Xiaole held his breath a little longer under the water, Su Lu on the shore would tense up as if she were about to snap.
Even though she knew that the wristband Zhao Xiaole wore was safe-once you pressed the button on it, a small cylinder on the wristband would rapidly inflate an airbag, and the inflated airbag could pull the person's hand up to the surface.
Actually, as long as you have a point of buoyancy to support you, you won't drown.
Seeing Su Lu constantly tense, Bo Jingshen felt a bit heartbroken, so after Zhao Xiaole had been playing in the water for over half an hour, he went to call the child ashore.
"Shall we go fishing? Didn't you say you wanted to fish?" he suggested.
"But..." Zhao Xiaole was clearly having a blast and wanted to continue having fun.
Bo Jingshen said, "The thing is, we can't guarantee we'll definitely catch any fish. So, if we don't allot extran tfor fishing and end up not catching anything, we might not have fish for dinner tonight, and that is one of the goals of our trip. Wouldn't it be a pity if we didn't get to eat what we caught?" Children's minds are easy to grasp.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Zhao Xiaole hesitated only for a moment before nodding, 1. "Right night! We have to catch a fish. Today, we must let Su Xiaolu taste the fish we catch, so she will want to cout and play with us again." Zhao Xiaole got out of the water, dripping wet.
Bo Jingshen was waiting on the shore with a bath towel, and as soon as he cashore, Bo Jingshen wrapped him up in a full embrace.
Zhao Xiaole giggled with laughter.
Watching this scene, Su Lu also felt warmth in her heart.
Then Zhao Xiaole, without changing clothes, wrapped in a big bath towel, went fishing with Bo Jingshen.
You could fish by the creek or go to the fish pond at the camping siten which also sourced its water from the creek and had good-quality water and better fish. Moreover, the campsite owner said that if they didn't mind the trouble, they could go to a reservoir a bit further away.
There were more fish there, bigger and tastier too.
Reservoir fish were known to be the best.
So, Bo Jingshen went with Su Lu and Zhao Xiaole to the reservoir.
Zhao Xiaole was thrilled, but their car was stopped halfway there.
It wasn't that their vehicle had an issue, but a car that had broken down was blocking the road ahead.
Their car was completely stopped, unable to get through, and then two people cover to knock on their car window.
