Traveling to ancient times, with space

Chapter 194 Somersault

No wonder when I used my mental energy to investigate earlier, I noticed that several elderly women had gathered in the same cave.

Oh, I see!

"Hey Erdanzi, your mother's busy giving birth right now, why isn't your father home with her? He's gone to town instead!"

Su Yue asked the dark-skinned, thin Erdanzi standing in front of her with curiosity.

Erdanzi raised his little head, blinked his innocent big eyes at Su Yue, and replied, "Sister, my dad went to town to sell things. After he sells all those things and gets the money, he can buy lots of good food for my mom to help her get better!"

Hearing this, Su Yue couldn't help but turn her gaze to the little ones in front of her.

After taking a closer look, she was surprised to find that the children all seemed to be around the same age, probably between four or five and six or seven years old.

Moreover, having lived on this wind-swept land for a long time, they were all tanned dark and thin, as if a gust of wind could easily blow them over.

Su Yue watched the innocent and adorable children with great interest, finding them quite amusing.

So she walked to the top of a wall that had collapsed halfway, and with a light movement, she flipped over and sat down steadily on it.

"Come, come, little kids, come over here and tell your big sister a story. Whoever tells the best story will be rewarded with a handful of delicious sunflower seeds!"

Su Yue greeted the children who were still standing there with a smile.

Upon hearing this, Erdanzi was the first to react. He quickly ran to Su Yue, tilted his head back, and asked curiously, "Sister, sister, what are melon seeds?"

Immediately afterward, Si Niu followed, equally eager to ask, "Yes, sister, are the sunflower seeds edible? Are they tasty?"

Su Yue was somewhat surprised to find that these children didn't even recognize sunflower seeds, but she quickly came to her senses.

Smiling, she pulled a handful of sunflower seeds from her bag, spread them out in her palm to show the children, and said, "Look, these are sunflower seeds. Each person can only take one."

The children were overjoyed upon hearing this and took a melon seed from Su Yue's hand.

After receiving the sunflower seeds, they didn't rush to put them in their mouths, but instead looked at them carefully, seemingly full of curiosity about what they called sunflower seeds.

After a while, one of the children finally couldn't resist putting a sunflower seed in his mouth, chewing it a few times, and then swallowing it directly.

Seeing this, the other children followed suit, stuffing the sunflower seeds into their mouths, chewing them, and then swallowing them with a gulp.

Dazhuang was the first to swallow. He frowned and mustered all his strength to swallow the melon seed in his mouth.

After finishing, he looked up at Su Yue with longing eyes and said with a hint of doubt, "Sister, these melon seeds smell so good, but they are really hard to swallow!"

It's a bit harsh on the throat, even harder to swallow than the pancakes my great-grandmother makes.

After saying that, he touched his neck, seemingly trying to relieve the discomfort.

Hearing Dazhuang say that, Su Yue did not laugh at them, but instead felt a little sad.

She knew that these children lived in hardship and rarely had snacks, which was why they didn't know the correct way to eat them.

So, Su Yue smiled slightly and said gently to the children, "You don't eat sunflower seeds the way you do. Come on, watch how I do it."

As she spoke, she gently pinched a melon seed and carefully put it into her mouth.

Then gently bite open the sunflower seed shell with your teeth, skillfully remove the kernel inside, chew it slowly, and then discard the shell.

After completing this series of actions, Su Yue smiled and asked the children, "Did you see that clearly?"

At this moment, Erdanzi nodded as if he suddenly realized something, scratched his head sheepishly, and said, "Oh dear! So we ate the shells along with the shells, hehehe!"

But then again, the shell actually tastes quite good when chewed.

After he finished speaking, he smacked his lips, as if he was still savoring the lingering fragrance in his mouth.

The other children couldn't help but burst into laughter when they saw this.

"Haha, yeah! I never thought sunflower seed shells would taste so good!" one of the children exclaimed happily.

At this moment, Su Yue looked at the little ones in front of her with a smile and asked softly, "So, who wants to tell a story first?"

Her gaze swept across the children's faces one by one.

However, Maodou blinked her big eyes, looking at the melon seeds in Su Yue's hand with a regretful expression, and said pitifully, "Sister, what should we do if we're not very good at telling stories?"

His appearance evoked feelings of pity and tenderness in people.

Su Yue didn't really expect these kids to tell any stories, after all, they were just a group of children who had never been outside.

She was just feeling a bit bored, and when she saw these children, she wanted to tease them and have some fun.

So, she continued with great interest, "What are your skills?"

Maodou tilted her head and thought seriously for a while, then suddenly clapped her hands excitedly and shouted, "Sister, we can do somersaults! Is that okay?"

After he finished speaking, he stared intently at Su Yue with expectant eyes, hoping to get a positive answer.

Hearing this, Su Yue couldn't help but giggle, thinking to herself that these little guys were really funny.

She readily nodded and said to the children with a smile, "Okay, then how about this: if each of you can do three somersaults in a row, I'll reward each of you with a handful of sunflower seeds."

As soon as he finished speaking, the children cheered and jumped for joy, their mouths agape with laughter.

Erdanzi, in particular, ran faster than a rabbit as soon as he heard there was a reward of food. He quickly ran to the open space and nimbly did three somersaults in a row.

The movements were clean and swift, executed in one smooth motion, and finally the person stood firmly in place.

He proudly dusted off his hands, then eagerly ran towards Su Yue, reaching out his little hand to ask for his reward.

Su Yue, who was standing to the side, was both amused and exasperated by what she saw.

She really didn't expect Erdanzi to be so proactive, and he was quite fast at doing somersaults, which made her both amused and exasperated.

She had no choice but to quickly pull out a handful of sunflower seeds from her handbag and hand them to Erdanzi, gently patting his little head.

Erdanzi thought to himself, "What if I accidentally drop these sunflower seeds if I just put them in my hand?"

He then lifted the shirt he was wearing to hold the sunflower seeds.
