Chapter 281 Their Hands Are Trembling
Bettany climbed to the top of the building and looked at Lilly.
The bamboo basket was big, and Lilly lay flat, one side of the bamboo basket covered her head, and the other side rested on her stomach.
As soon as Lilly turned over and retracted her calf. She was now under the basket.
Bettany opened the bamboo basket carefully, touched her forehead distressedly, and felt relieved after she was sure Lilly did not have a fever.
At that moment, Anthony woke up. He rubbed his eyebrows and said, “Mom?”
He looked around and found that Jean had disappeared.
Jean returned to the jar of souls at dawn.
Edward got up with a grunt, and looked around in a panic, “Mom’s here? Let’s go!”
Bettany patted him sarcastically and hit his head.
Edward hugged his head.
Everyone was awakened, and when they saw Bettany standing in front of them aggressively, they were stunned for a moment.
Then hurriedly said, “Mom, why are you here?”
Was it possible for an old lady to climb that high?
Bettany laughed angrily, “You still have the guts to ask. How old do you think Lilly is? Why did you bring her to the roof?”
Lilly was awakened by Bettany’s voice but felt drowsy.
It was only past six o’clock, and she was usually asleep at that time. So, she was confused.
Lilly stretched out her hands, and shouted, “Cheers!”
“Uncle Anthony, I want a glass of wine!”
After speaking, she stared blankly at Bettany. Why was her grandma here?
Lilly buried herself in Bettany’s arms and fell asleep.
Bettany lowered her head, her expression was unclear, but she seemed to be planning something.
Lilly’s uncles were speechless.
We’re done for!
We’re in trouble!
Edward tiptoed and was the first to escape Bettany’s wrath.
Ben
said gloomily. “Stop moving, everyone!”
They did not dare to make a sound.
Ten minutes later, Lilly was brought back to her room and lay comfortably in her bed.
Lilly’s uncles lowered their heads and stood in a row.
Bettany came out and closed the door, and looked at them with their hands behind their backs.
“Who took the lead?” She asked.
Everyone looked at Anthony in unison.
Anthony, who took the blame, was quiet.
Shouldn’t Jean look for Jonas first?
He coughed, and his voice was deep, “Mom, let me explain…”
Bettany stared, “I’m not listening!”
Anthony was quiet.
He was speechless at women’s lack of reasoning.
Eventually, everyone was punished by Bettany for doing a thousand push–ups at the door.
When Lilly got up, she was stunned to see Edward and the others slumped at the door like dead fish.
She grabbed the railing on the second floor and waved her hand then, greeted, “Hi Uncle Anthony, Uncle Liam, Uncle Jonas, Uncle Edward, and Uncle Gilbert, what are you doing?”
Theoretically, 500 push–ups would take an hour, so her uncles were doing push–ups for 2 hours.
They would refuse to do any kind of sports after that.
They did not even have the strength to lift their arms after seeing Lilly greet them.
Polly stood on the balcony railing, shaking his neck and counting, “Nine hundred and ninety–eight, nine hundred and ninety–nine, eight hundred! Eight hundred and one, eight hundred and two…”
Lilly’s uncles were exhausted.
Lilly put on her shoes and ran to her uncle.
Anthony forced himself to smile, “Lilly, why are you up this early?”
Lilly looked at the sky, “It’s not early, the sun is up. Are you doing exercises right now?”
Jonas looked at the sky, he did not want to move a finger, and said, “That’s right… We’re doing an extreme exercise to lose weight,”
Edward picked up his clothes and wiped his face, “Our muscles are getting firmer,”
2/4
Gilbert added, “I don’t think I can perform surgery after this,”
It wa
good thing he took his annual leave and had five days of holidays, or else he could not perform weil it he worked.
Lilly heard that her uncles got up early to exercise, and got excited, “I wanna do it too!”
She stretched out her hand and waved, “Uncle Anthony, Uncle Liam, Uncle Jonas, Uncle Edward, and Uncle Gilbert, follow my lead!”
“Left right, left right, turn around, let’s go!”
They were petrified.
Lilly was dancing to the rabbit dance she learned in kindergarten. When she saw that her uncles were still lying down, she immediately instructed them childishly, “Stand up quickly, uncles!”
“Don’t be lazy, Uncle Liam!”
“Uncle Jonas, Uncle Edward, don’t lie down anymore!”
“You did it wrong, Uncle Gilbert, you have to move your hips like this!”
Blake came back from the outside looking refreshed and he was grinning.
He picked up Lilly and asked, “Have you eaten?”
Lilly hugged Blake’s neck, “We’re exercising now, Daddy. We can’t eat before we’re done with our exercise?”
Blake glanced at Anthony and the others, and asked, “Did you eat first and exercise next, or vice–versa in the kindergarten?”
Lilly was stunned for a moment, then said, “We usually eat first then, exercise later,”
Blake chuckled, “That’s right. Let’s eat,”
Lilly walked next to her father and nodded, “Uncle Anthony, Uncle Liam, Uncle Jonas, Uncle Edward, and Uncle Gilbert, let’s eat first!”
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
They were at their limits.
Not everyone could do a thousand push–ups.
Bettany was ruthless and she took her punishments seriously.
Blake glanced back, and said, “How are all of you so weak?”
Edward thought to himself, “What the hell!”
Lilly’s uncles‘ hands trembled when they were eating.
-Edward was hungry, his hands were shaking as he ate. His cutleries kept hitting his plate.
Lilly was dumbfounded.
“Uncle Edward, are you okay?” Lilly looked at Edward worriedly.
Edward replied as he kept hitting the plate, “I’m fine,”
Lilly looked sympathetic, she thought that Edward had Parkinson’s disease at such a young age.
She had only seen old people and old ghosts‘ hands tremble like that.
Lilly picked up an eggplant, and said, “Don’t worry, Uncle Edward, I’ll feed you! I’ll take care of you!”
Edward was very moved.
After taking a bite of what Lilly fed him, he felt that it was delicious.
He glanced at the other brothers proudly, as if he was saying he won in life.
Then she heard Lilly nagging, “Uncle Edward, would you be able to move in the future?”
Edward wanted to tease her, and asked, “Well, if that’s the case, would you still take care of me?”
Lilly blinked blankly, “Uncle Edward, wouldn’t you drool and need to wear diapers too?”
Just like the old man from the Reed family.
Jonas smiled, “Yes,”
Lilly patted Edward’s head comfortingly, “Don’t worry, Uncle Edward, I’ll change your diapers and feed you,”
Edward choked on the eggplant and suddenly felt that it was not delicious anymore.
How did the conversation turn into this?
