Chapter 446 Galaxy
The sun has set.
The setting sun dyed the sea a golden-red color, and a few people could be seen working on the mudflats from time to time.
Everything seemed calm and peaceful.
Xu Yi took out all the buckets in the house that could be used to hold water and fetched water into the kitchen back and forth.
"Big sister, Yuanbao wants me to go out and play."
Sihai stood in the courtyard seeking Xu Yiyi's opinion, and she peeked out from the kitchen.
Yuanbao stared at her longingly, the child stomping his feet excitedly like a puppy eager to go out.
"Don't go near the sea!"
"Okay!" Sihai replied crisply, then turned to run away.
The two children, like sparrows at play, rushed out onto the path one after the other.
Sihai's trouser legs were uneven, one higher than the other, making them look like two flapping wings when he ran.
The setting sun cast long shadows of them, and Sihai, who had somehow picked up a tree branch, waved it as he ran.
San Chuan was still engrossed in reading in his room.
Xu Yiyi took a small stool and sat down by the well to scrape fish scales. The water droplets splashed on her face, feeling cool and refreshing.
In the wooden basin next to the cutting board, clams were blowing tiny bubbles.
Wu Yuan crawled around the yard making little noises, looking quite dirty.
The sea breeze suddenly picked up, and the courtyard gate swayed slightly.
The weather didn't change until after dinner when I took a shower.
"Big sister, where do you think second sister went?"
"According to the plan, we should still be in the Qiongzhou Strait."
A few days ago, Er'er received a letter from Er'er, which was full of descriptions of the new things she had encountered.
Sanchuan was incredibly envious.
I wish I could sprout wings and fly there right now.
……
At 3:45 PM, it was already pitch black, but a small circle of warm yellow light rippled across the courtyard.
Sanchuan squatted down, her two small hands tightly wrapped around Wuyuan's armpits, like a cautious little crab, moving backward step by step.
"Little Wu, lift your foot, yes, lift your foot..."
The child was wrapped up in cotton, like a round cloth ball, and was being supported by his older brother, his little feet softly stepping on the cool bluestone slab.
Perhaps the swaying sensation was incredibly novel, because Wu Yuan grinned, revealing a glistening trail of drool, and babbled incoherently. He kept smiling at Xu Yiyi.
"Aren't you going to take a shower, sis? The water's getting cold."
Sihai jumped out of the house, his head still steaming.
This is from when I just came out of the shower.
"No rush, I'll wash later after Wuyuan falls asleep."
I'm still afraid that the little fat boy will cry again.
"Come here, let me dry your hair."
Upon hearing this, Sihai eagerly walked over, rested his head on her lap, and curled up like a well-behaved cat.
Xu Yiyi wrapped his wet, short hair in a fine cotton cloth and gently pressed it down.
Steam rose, carrying the fresh scent of soapberry.
When Wu Yuan turned around, he saw this scene and his eyes widened. He angrily babbled incoherently.
That's enough! I'm not just your older sister.
Xu Yiyi said irritably.
A gentle evening breeze blew across the corridor, and the candlelight flickered.
After she had put all three children to sleep, she slowly went to take a bath.
At the beginning of Hai hour, Xu Yiyi, her hair still dripping wet, had just come out of the washroom when she noticed that the night sky had changed.
The sky opened wide, and the Milky Way poured down like shattered jade.
She exclaimed softly, turned around and ran into the house to wake the two children.
"Wake up, there's a Milky Way."
"What Milky Way?" Sanchuan, still dazed, ran barefoot out of the house and gasped for breath.
The Milky Way was clearly visible in the night sky, and the stars were like fireflies embedded in the heavens.
Sihai rubbed his eyes and leaned against the door frame, asking in a childish voice, "Big sister, it looks like the rice you scattered for the chickens this morning."
Xu Yiyi was feeling sentimental.
Hearing such a description of the four seas suddenly shattered Gaba's beautiful illusions about the Milky Way.
She said helplessly, "What kind of description is that? Go read some books."
Sihai smiled awkwardly, walked out, and asked her to pick him up.
Besides their family, many other families on the island were also drawn out by the Milky Way.
A night breeze caressed the three people's slightly upturned faces, and the gentle glow of the Milky Way enveloped the small courtyard.
No one expected that a storm was about to break out after such a dazzling starry sky.
When Xu Yi woke up, the door was rattling loudly in the wind.
The room was terrifyingly dark, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, and for a moment you couldn't tell what time it was.
She got out of bed and lit the oil candles, the orange flame illuminating the entire room.
Wuyuan is still asleep.
