Chapter 129: Gecko Walk
Following Wu Yali to the second floor, Xu Tongdao found that there were two rooms upstairs in her house, which could be regarded as a suite!
Wu Yali led him to the east room quickly, and as soon as she entered the door, she stopped, reached out and pointed to the log-colored wardrobe in the southeast corner of the room, "Na, it's leaking rain over there, look at the plastic basins I put on top of the closet, do you see it?"
Because her footsteps stopped too suddenly, Xu Tongdao almost hit her back, but fortunately he stopped his feet in time, but because he was too close, he inadvertently smelled the shampoo aroma in her hair, which he felt was a bit like a soft fragrance......
Of course, it didn't matter if it was rejoicing or not, he hurriedly took half a step back, followed the direction of her finger, and saw that there was a large wardrobe about two meters high and more than one meter long in the corner, and there were indeed a few red and green plastic basins on the top of the closet, and there was indeed rainwater dripping into the plastic basin on the roof, as if the faucet was dripping water without turning it off.
When Wu Yali entered the door just now, the lights in this room had already been turned on, Xu Tongdao's eyes were not bad, and he could see clearly that a few of the wooden rafters (chuan) on the roof were soaked, and the water was dripping from those soaked rafters.
Small second floors like this with roof tiles are quite common in this county.
And this kind of roof with tiles has the possibility of rain leakage.
"Sister Wu, you want to move this wardrobe to another location, right?"
When Xu Tongdao asked this, his eyes swept the furnishings in this room, and at a glance, there were not many furniture in this room, it was quite simple, except for the big wardrobe, which was a wooden bed without a quilt, about one meter five wide, and a wooden table and a chair near the window.
This room should not be occupied in a long time.
Wu Yali: "That's right, you see that the water dripping on the top of the closet is very fast, hehe, since noon, I have gone upstairs to pour water on the top of the closet twice, if you don't come here tonight, I guess I will have to pour water once or twice in the middle of the night, otherwise the basin is full, and the water will flow out and drip the cupboard, by the way, I still have a few quilts in the closet, do you need to move them out first?"
Xu Tongdao: "I'll take a look!"
As he spoke, Xu Tongdao strode over, opened the door of the closet, and saw that there were only three or four quilts in the closet, so he directly moved out all the quilts and put them on the wooden bed not far away.
Wu Yali wanted to come forward to help, but he was also sent by him to move the chairs.
After he moved a few quilts to the bed, Wu Yali also moved the wooden chair by the window.
"Sister Wu, I'll take down the basins on the top of the cupboard now, you can help pick them up, otherwise when we move this closet, the basin will fall down easily. ā
"Oh, okay, okay! ā
"You're kind to me?"
Xu Tongdao said, took off the rubber boots on his feet, stepped on the wooden chair, and reached out to get the plastic basin on the top of the cupboard. ā
"Don't worry, Sister Wu!"
The height of the surface of the chair is about half a meter, Xu Tongdao is just over 1.7 meters tall, and together there are about 2.2 meters, and the top of the wardrobe is about 2.3 meters and 2.4 meters, so he stood on the chair and could get the plastic basins on the top of the cabinet as soon as he stretched out his hand.
Therefore, this job is not difficult for him.
Xu Tongdao originally planned to take down a few plastic basins one by one and hand them to Wu Yali, but when he reached out to take down the first plastic basin, he saw that there was only two or three centimeters of stagnant water inside, and as soon as his mind changed, he did not rush to hand this basin to Wu Yali, but handed the basin to his left hand, and his right hand went to take down the second plastic basin, and poured the shallow layer of water in the second plastic basin into the basin in his left hand, and then handed the plastic basin with no water to Wu Yali on the ground.
Wu Yali chuckled, and when she took the plastic basin, she also praised: "Xiaodao, you are very smart!"
Xu Tongdao smiled and said casually: "General." ā
I reached out and got the third plastic basin, and I was ready to dispose of it like I had just done, and there were three plastic basins on top of this closet.
Just as the third plastic basin was taken off the top of the closet, the accident suddenly happened, a small but lively little animal...... I don't know if it was scraped by the bottom of the basin, but it suddenly fell off the roof of the closet, and ...... happened to fall into Wu Yali's shallow, snow-white clavicle socket, and the touch of the four paws stepping on her skin made her pale at that time, and she screamed, and hurriedly threw the empty basin in her hand, and hurriedly slapped her collarbone, and her feet were also jumping like hot feet, and the screams scared Xu Tongdao on the chair and almost fell off, and then he really fell, because Wu Yali, who was jumping around, inadvertently bumped into him, and there was a loud bang......
The world is quiet.
The chair fell to the ground, and Xu Tongdao fell to the side, frowning and biting his lip, much like constipation.
The plastic basin that had just been filled with water was a red upside down not far from his face, and his chest was wet with a large chunk, Wu Yali covered her mouth with one hand, pressed her collarbone with the other, and looked at the unlucky guy on the ground Xu Tongdao in surprise.
Xu Tongdao bit his lip and looked at her, his expression ...... Quite painful and speechless.
"Xiao, Xiaodao, are you okay?"
Wu Yali finally reacted, hurriedly walked over, squatted beside Xu Tongdao and stretched out her hand to help him, Xu Tongdao exhaled a sullen breath, bared his teeth, and asked her, "Sister Wu, what happened to you just now?
He hadn't actually seen what had fallen from the top of his closet.
"IāI don't know, yes, something happened to fall on me, and it had several legs, really! When those feet stepped on me, the hairs all over my body stood up, and I almost jumped out of my heart just now, really! I definitely didn't lie to you......"
Wu Yali blushed and explained, while explaining, she stretched out her hand to compare, Xu Tongdao listened with her ears, but her eyes scanned around, she just finished explaining here, Xu Tongdao looked at the little tail that was still twisting on the ground not far away, sighed depressedly, and said to Nunu over there: "It should be a little gecko, look!"
Wu Yali was stunned, looked in the direction of his mouth, and saw the thin little tail on the ground, she froze, "That, that's the gecko tail?"
Xu Tongdao hummed.
Wu Yali may not have seen a gecko, but Xu Tongdao grew up in the countryside and has seen gecko more than once.
But today, this frightened little gecko scared Wu Yali miserably, and also threw him Xu Tongdao not lightly, is the small piece of money it left behind enough to compensate?
