Chapter 443 Catching a Turtle
Chapter 443 Catching a Turtle
Meiya was soothing Xiaokui to sleep in the bedroom, while Mingxu was drawing the next draft in the living room. He had been a bit lazy recently and almost missed the supply of the next issue of comics, which was a bit embarrassing.
When Meiya was in contact with Miss Bai, she tried to find topics to talk about and divert attention, and managed to delay some time under the other person's speechless gaze.
Mingxu scratched his head and decided to get more while there was still time.
"Baby, sleep well, sleep sweetly~ Baby, sleep sweetly~" Meiya sang a lullaby while gently patting Xiaokui.
Xiao Kui also slowly fell asleep in this environment.
"Huh~ I finally fell asleep." Meiya looked up at the time.
"Haha, Shin-chan went to Kazama's house to play today, Xiaokui was taking a nap, and Xiaoxu was drawing the next draft. So~" Meiya laughed.
"Next is the time before dinner, which is the elegant time of my beautiful young woman, Nohara Misae. Oh wow~" Misae walked out the door quietly, not wanting to wake up Xiaokui.
As soon as I came out, I let myself go and quickly moved towards the living room: "Haha, I can watch TV programs lazily..."
As soon as I entered the living room, I saw Mingxu quietly drawing a manuscript, and Xiaoxin sitting in front of the TV with the volume turned down.
"..." Meiya looked at Xiaoxin speechlessly. Didn't this guy go out? When did he come back?
"This artist really is having an extramarital affair." Shin-chan said, pointing at the person on TV.
"..Didn't you go to Kazama's house?" Misae was not interested in talking about this and asked Shin-chan speechlessly looking at him.
"He said something urgent happened today and he couldn't entertain me." Shin-chan spread his hands.
"I didn't expect this result..." Meiya's mouth twitched, it seemed that her plan had failed.
"Where's Xiaokui?" Xiaoxin asked without turning his head.
"She is taking a nap now, so you just be quiet." Meiya looked at Xiaoxin and said softly.
"I know, Xiaoxu is also drawing and asked me to speak in a low voice." Xiaoxin said indifferently.
"Do you think I can continue drawing?" Mingxu raised his head speechlessly. He was drawing well, but you suddenly came back and turned on the TV. If he hadn't asked you to keep your voice down, you would have let yourself go.
"Hehe~ Don't mind it~" Xiaoxin said with a red face, and then slowly moved to Meiya's legs: "Now there are only three of us left~"
"What do you want to do? Why are you suddenly so cheesy?" Misae was shocked by Shin-chan's attitude. This kid must be up to no good.
"Because ever since Xiaokui was born, mommy only cares about Xiaokui. Sometimes I miss the scenes of playing with mommy Xiaoxu~" Xiaoxin said while looking at Meiya eagerly.
"Let me make this clear first. I haven't finished yet. It will take at least half an hour, so don't think about it for now." Mingxu didn't even turn his head and continued writing.
"Xiao Xin~" Meiya hugged Xiao Xin and said, "Jinan Xiaoxu is busy, so mommy will come and play with you first."
"Mother~"
"Xiao Xin~"
"Hey, hey, hey, that's enough." Mingxu rolled his eyes at them, as if they really thought I didn't exist.
"Hehe." The two of them tilted their heads and laughed in unison, their movements in unison.
"By the way, any strenuous exercise or games that consume a lot of physical energy, and any cartoons that mom doesn't understand, are not allowed to be played!" Miya and Shin-chan said face to face.
"Don't worry." Xiao Xin waved his hand and said, "Look at the dynamic Superman playing cards!"
Xiao Xin took out a box of playing cards from his pocket: "This is the latest gift from the Food Kindergarten."
"Poker cards? What card game do you want to play?" Meiya's eyes rolled, and several games flashed through her mind, but it seemed that Shinnosuke and the others didn't know how to play them?
"I can only play that when I play with my mom." Shin-chan opened the deck of cards, took out all the cards and said.
"That? What do you mean?" Meiya didn't understand for a moment.
"I think he's talking about the turtle game, or maybe the big and small game." Mingxu said casually without even raising his head. He was almost done with this piece, and he wanted to play too!
"That's right! Xiaoxu is right, it's catching turtles! Of course, I'm playing catching turtles with an old woman." Xiaoxin shrugged and said, "Xiaoxu, do you want to play with us?"
"Wait a minute, you guys play first, I'll finish drawing in a while." Mingxu continued without looking up.
"Oh~" Xiaoxin nodded.
"Wait a minute! The word "old" in that old woman you mentioned is redundant! And there's no fun in playing with just two people. Why don't we wait for Xiaoxu to finish painting and then play together?" Meiya suggested.
"It's not boring at all! Xiaoxu will join us soon, let's play for a while first." Xiaoxin shook his head.
"How about we go to the seventh or heart disease hospital first?" Meiya suggested.
“? What is this?” Mingxu was confused. He seemed to have never heard of it before? ? ?
"Ah? Xiaoxu, haven't you played it before?" Meiya was also a little confused. Didn't she teach them how to play it?
"No." Mingxu shook his head honestly.
"Then..." Before Meiya could finish her words, Shin-chan interrupted her with a puffed up face.
"No, no, no! Play catching turtles! Play catching turtles! I just want to play catching turtles!" Xiaoxin yelled.
"Okay, okay, stop making noise. You'll wake Xiaokui up. Just play catching turtles. Really, what's so fun about it?" Meiya said helplessly.
"Hehe, because with old women, we just want to play turtle hunting!" Xiaoxin said again.
"Warrior." Mingxu shook his head. This kid mentioned it again and again. He was really not afraid of getting beaten. Even if Meiya didn't beat you now, she would definitely beat you later.
"Bang!" As Mingxu expected, after Meiya's punch, Xiaoxin immediately became obedient and started dealing the cards.
After putting down the even-numbered cards in their hands, the two officially began to draw cards from each other's hands.
"Let me see, this one! Uh... I got it! Okay, it's a pair! There are five left, and we can catch the turtle soon." Meiya took a card from Shin-chan's hand, looked at it, and said proudly.
"Wait a minute, why do you all seem to have five cards in your hands?" After Mingxu finished drawing the next page, he looked up at them and suddenly asked in confusion.
"Ah?" Misae looked at Shin-chan's hand.
"...Why do you have five too?"
"What's wrong?"
"Since there is a joker card, one of you should have one more card than the other," Mingxu explained.
"Ah? Is that so?"
"Let me see your cards." Meiya took the cards from Xiaoxin's hand, compared them, and asked speechlessly: "Xiaoxin, where is the joker card?"
"Forehead.."
"What's there to think about? Without the joker, there's no way to tell who's winning or losing."
"Uh, that's weird? Is it still in the box? No... " Shin-chan picked up the box of playing cards, looked at it, and shook his head.
"I think you lost the joker card." Mei Ya complained.
"Then I'll go find the missing Old Ghost Card!" Shin-chan said as he ran and started rummaging through the toy box.
"Do you really have to say anything but old?" Meiya's mouth twitched: "What if I can't find it?"
"There's no other way. We can't play catching turtles anymore." Shin-chan said casually.
"Oh, that's great." Meiya suddenly became happy.
"..." Mingxu was a little speechless. He also wanted to play, and I would be ready soon...
"It's okay. Even if we can't find the joker card, I still have another deck of cards here!" Xiao Xin said as he took out another deck of cards.
"..." Meiya was speechless for a moment, Mingxu smiled, hehe, I want to play too???(???w??)???
Come on, we're almost done.
"Well, there's a joker card this time." Meiya took the deck of cards, checked the joker card inside, nodded, and after shuffling the cards, the two of them started to deal them out.
After that, the two put down their cards in pairs again and prepared to start. Mingxu glanced at them again and was speechless again: "Why do you have the same cards in your hands again?"
"Ah?" Misae and Shin-chan looked at each other, and the corners of their mouths twitched.
"Show me your cards..." Meiya took the cards from Shin-chan's hand.
"There's one less K this time." Meiya responded and shook her head.
"Ah? Mommy is so hot."
"It's not like I took it. Really, why are the cards not complete?" Mei Ya said helplessly with her head down.
"This is not our Xiaoxin's fault." Mingxu put away the manuscript and spread his hands: "You always use playing cards as ninja darts, to stack building blocks or as coins in games, so naturally there are a few missing cards."
"Do you count the number of sheets after you finish each time?" Meiya asked.
"...I'm always busy, so..." Xiaoxin hesitated.
"It seems like we can't play today, so we can only give up." Meiya shook her head.
"Ah~"
"Ah, it's no use."
"Well, let's use this." Xiao Xin took out another deck of cards: "Magic Witch Mary Poker!"
"...How many decks of cards do you have left?" Mingxu asked curiously.
"Not much. I didn't want to use this one..."
"Then don't use it." Meiya suggested.
"No." Xiaoxin refused and opened the package.
The three of them then checked and found that no cards were missing this time.
"Well, we're not missing any cards this time, so we can play." Mingxu nodded.
"Hahaha, this time the three of us can fight for three days and three nights to decide the result!" Xiao Xin shouted proudly.
"bring it on."
"We can't play for too long. Mom has to go shopping soon. Just play one or two rounds." Meiya said as she dealt cards to the three people.
"Okay, let's start." Mingxu suggested.
"Ah."
After the three of them threw the pairs in their hands onto the table, they began to look at each other.
After rock-paper-scissors, Mingxu was the first to draw a card.
"Great, we just made a pair. Next one is mom, come on." Mingxu said and faced the card to Meiya.
"Let me see, this is it!" Meiya grabbed a card from the edge and pulled it out, not noticing that Mingxu's mouth corners curled up.
"Ah! It's..." Meiya puffed up her cheeks, shuffled the cards in her hand, and then pointed at Xiaoxin: "Come on, it's your turn."
"I want this one!" Xiao Xin said, pulling it out: "Hey, it's a perfect pair!"
"Next is Xiao Xu!"
"I'll take this one." Mingxu looked at Xiaoxin and drew at random. Anyway, he knew that the joker card was in Meisai's hand.
"Hehe, just right." Mingxu put down another pair of cards and aimed the cards at Meiya.
“…This one!” Meiya drew a card again, but this time she failed to make a pair. . .
Xiao Xin grabbed the cards again and grinned, he got a pair again!
Then Mingxu grabbed another card from Xiaoxin.
"Hey, I'm out of cards." Mingxu put down the last two cards and laughed.
"Ah! Okay! Watch me!" Miya looked at Shin-chan, and they drew cards from each other.
……
"Haha, I won!" Xiaoxin proudly put down the last card. Meiya looked at the joker in her hand and felt a little uncomfortable. She lost...
"Come again!"
"Mom, you should go buy groceries," Mingxu reminded.
"Not urgent!"
"..."
