August 14th.

Early in the morning, Deng Qingling packed up all the things she was going to take back to her parents' home. After having breakfast and cleaning up the children, she set off for her parents' home.

It was a little chilly in the morning, and as soon as we reached the top of the hill, the children were actually sweating slightly.

"Stop, let's take a break." Deng Qingling pulled Guo Ninghuan over and wiped the sweat off her face with her sleeve, and then wiped the sweat off the Guo Haochen brothers.

"Huanhuan, how about daddy carry you?" Guo Jianping said.

Deng Qingling: "She's only been out for a short time. Let her walk on her own. You can carry her on your back when you come back. Going down the mountain isn't tiring, but going up is."

Guo Ninghuan thought about it and decided that his mother was right. He would let his father carry him when he got back. So he nodded and said, "I'll walk by myself. It won't be that tiring for Dad to walk."

Seeing his daughter so well-behaved and sensible, Guo Jianping was very pleased and said with a smile: "It's okay, Huanhuan is so cute, Daddy won't get tired carrying Huanhuan, and can walk back and forth as many times as he wants."

After saying that, he squatted down and motioned Guo Ninghuan to climb onto his back.

When Guo Ninghuan saw Guo Jianping squatting down, he immediately climbed up.

"Let's go!" Guo Jianping carried Guo Ninghuan on his back and walked quickly forward without waiting for the people who were resting there.

"Dad, wait for us." The Guo Haochen brothers chased after him with their short legs.

"Slow down, watch the road!"

Deng Qingling saw them running away, so she quickly picked up the things on the ground and chased after them.

Everyone was talking and laughing along the way, and soon they arrived at Tianxin Village.

As soon as they arrived at the village entrance, Guo Ninghuan started to make a fuss about getting off the field and walking by herself. As soon as she got off the field, Guo Haochen and Guo Haoxi started running. Seeing their brother running, Guo Ninghuan also ran after them.

Deng Qingling hadn't even finished saying "run slower" when, in the blink of an eye, even the shadows of the children disappeared.

"Po Dai"

"Po Dai--"

"Po Dai~~~~"

The sound arrives before the person.

Hearing the familiar voice, Liang Haidi came out of the house.

"Oh, it's Podai's little darling here. Come here and let Podai hug you." Liang Haidi said as she squatted down and opened her arms.

As a result, the three children rushed over and knocked her to the ground.

The children were frightened and quickly pulled Podai up, asking anxiously: "Podai, are you hurt? Are you feeling uncomfortable anywhere?" As they spoke, they touched her here and there.

The tone and action were exactly the same as Deng Qingling's reaction after they fell.

"Po Dai is fine." Liang Haidi said as she brushed the dust off her pants.

"You all look so sweaty after running. Are you tired? Let's go into the house first." Liang Haidi wiped the sweat off the children's heads.

Guo Ninghuan shook his head and said, "I'm not tired."

Guo Haochen retorted, "Of course you're not tired! Dad carried you all the way and only got off at the village entrance."

"That's right. My brother and I walked all the way here by ourselves. We were thirsty and tired," said Guo Haoxi.

"Be good and follow Podai into the house. Podai will give you some oranges," said Liang Haidi.

While the children were eating oranges, Deng Qingling and his wife finally arrived.

"Mom." After saying hello, Guo Jianping put the things on the table in the corner.

"Well, please sit down." Liang Haidi said.

Deng Qingling walked over and sat down next to Liang Haidi, then turned to Liang Haidi and said, "Mom, why are you the only one at home? Where are the others?"

"Someone went back to their parents' home, some went to school, some went to work, and I'm the only old woman left at home," said Liang Haidi.

"What about my dad? Where did he go?" Deng Qingling asked.

"Your dad went to catch loaches and eels. He said he would fry them for Haochen and the others when you come back." Liang Haidi said this and looked at Guo Haochen and his two siblings who were sitting obediently on the stools, peeling oranges and eating them.

Upon hearing this, the children jumped off their stools and gathered around Liang Haidi. Guo Haochen grinned and said, "Podai, can you take us to find Gongdai? We want to learn how to catch loaches and eels."

"Podai, can you take us to catch eels? Please?" Guo Ninghuan hugged Liang Haidi's hands and shook them.

Liang Haidi grabbed Guo Ninghuan's shaking hand and said, "Okay, okay, okay, let your mother take you there."

"Yeah!"

The children turned to look at Deng Qingling, pulled her up and wanted to go out.

Deng Qingling pinched Guo Ninghuan's little face and said with a smile: "You didn't even ask where to catch Gong Dai, so where do you want me to take you to find him?"

"My dear~" Guo Ninghuan turned and said to Liang Haidi.

Liang Haidi shook her head and smiled, "There's really nothing I can do about you. Your husband should be by the river in Liangwu Village."

"Come on, Mom, take us there quickly." The children couldn't wait any longer.

"Let go, I'll walk by myself." Deng Qingling said.

"Then let's go quickly." Guo Ninghuan said and let go of his hand.

As soon as she let go, Deng Qingling jogged a few steps, and the children quickly chased after her, "Mom, wait for us!"

Guo Jianping: "Mom, I'll go and watch."

"Go ahead, look after the child and don't let him go to the fields." Liang Haidi waved her hand.

When they got to the river, they saw that the fields had been dug up and were full of mud pits. It seemed quite difficult!

The child saw that there were so many people and he couldn't tell which one was his own, so he just started shouting loudly.

"Damn it~"

Deng Lu heard the familiar voice, looked up, quickly shook the mud off his hands, waved at them, and shouted: "Hey, stay here."

"Here we go!" Deng Qingling said, then turned to the children and said, "Don't run around. Walk slowly. The edge of the field is very slippery, you know?

The children nodded and slowly walked towards Deng Road.

Deng Lu talked to them for a few words and asked them to stand further away to avoid being splashed with mud.

The children stood obediently by and watched him catch the fish.

Not long after, Deng Lu caught a yellow eel. He held it up to show the children, and the eel was still twisting.

Deng Qingling quickly looked away when she saw it. She was not interested in this slippery little animal.

The children were very excited, smiling and shouting exaggeratedly.

"Wow, what a big eel!"

"Wow, Gongdai is really amazing."

"Gong Dai, let me see it quickly."

They have never seen a live eel!

Seeing his grandson so excited, Deng Lu put the eel into a bamboo basket and handed it to him. "Here, let you watch."

"Gongdai, go ahead and dig without worry. I will take good care of the eels." Guo Haochen patted his chest with an I promise look that made people want to laugh when they saw him.

"Okay, then I'll leave this task to you." Deng Lu joked.

"I guarantee to complete the task." Guo Haochen said seriously.

Deng Lu smiled and nodded, continuing to look for eels.

Guo Jianping looked over here from a distance and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the child lying obediently by the field.
