Little Peach rolled her eyes at Little Two Treasure: "Then Granny Mountain Spirit must be hiding, not letting anyone find her easily. Besides, I only told you because you kept asking me what the solution was."
Hearing this, Xiao Erbao didn't say anything more. He just frowned slightly and looked at Dabao beside him.
Little Peach said unhappily, "I don't think we can play today. You four little dumplings have no intention of playing with me at all! I'm going home first."
Seeing that Little Peach was unhappy, the four little children quickly stopped her: "Little Peach, don't be angry. We were just too anxious."
"We didn't sleep well all night after hearing that Mom was leaving!"
"I feel so awful!"
Little Peach snorted coldly: "Fine then, considering you had a reason for what happened, I'll forgive you today."
Yang Xiaoshu, who was next door, overheard the conversation and poked his head out of the doorway, saying, "Xiao Taozi is right. I've also heard the aunties in the village say that there are mountain spirits in the mountains."
The little ones were initially skeptical of Zhu Taozi's words, but after hearing Yang Xiaoshu say that there really was a mountain spirit, they began to believe it as well.
Little Sanbao quickly said, "Really? Then can we also go to Granny Mountain Spirit and beg her not to let Mother leave us!"
Little Sibao chimed in, "As long as we find Granny Mountain Spirit and make a wish to her, Mother will definitely not leave us!"
Little Peach shook her head: "My mother won't let me go up the mountain, I'm too scared to go..."
Just as the four little ones were trying to persuade Zhu Taozi to join them, Madam Pang came to call them for dinner. Seeing the children huddled together, she asked with a smile, "What are you all talking about?"
Da Bao winked at the little ones, and the four little ones quickly shook their heads: "We didn't say anything, we were just playing."
Pang didn't think much of it. Seeing Yang Xiaoshu and Zhu Taozi there, she smiled and said, "You two were playing with the four little ones, right? How about Grandma washes some fruit for you to eat?"
Zhu Taozi shook her head. She was usually the most unable to keep secrets, and if she stayed too long, she would definitely reveal what the little ones were planning.
After hurriedly saying goodbye to Mr. Pang, he rushed home.
Yang Xiaoshu waved goodbye and went home.
The four little ones were distracted while eating, and Madam Pang didn't know what was wrong with them, only assuming that the food she made didn't suit their tastes.
After eating, they continued to squat in the yard, trying to come up with a solution.
Xiao Erbao spoke up first: "Why don't we go together? If Xiao Taozi and the others don't want to come, they don't have to. I don't believe that the four of us can't find Granny Shanling."
Da Bao shook his head: "We need to think of a way to keep it from our parents. If they find out we're going up the mountain alone, they definitely won't allow it."
Xiao Sanbao nodded in agreement, "Big Brother Dabao is right. Mother is on the mountain right now. If we go there now, she might call us back and we won't be able to find Granny Mountain Spirit."
Just as they were making their plans, Yang Xiaoshu peeked over the wall next door and said, "I'll go with you."
Hearing this, the four little ones were overjoyed.
"Are you really going with us?"
"Would you like to go with us to the mountain to find Granny Mountain Spirit?"
Yang Xiaoshu nodded: "I'm willing. The four of you don't know how to find Granny Mountain Spirit if you go up the mountain. I've heard about her before. I'll lead the way, and I'm sure I can get you there."
And so, the four little ones and Yang Xiaoshu decided to set off after dinner.
Yang Xiaoshu also instructed, "Tell your parents you're going to play with Xiaotaozi, they'll definitely let you."
After dinner in the evening, the four little ones and Yang Xiaoshu went out and quietly avoided the villagers, heading up the mountain.
As they walked up the mountain, Xiao Sibao was still shaken by the last time they fell into a trap on the mountain.
Somewhat worried, he asked, "Won't it be dangerous if we just go up the mountain like this...? Last time we accidentally fell into a trap."
Hearing Xiao Sibao's concerns, Xiao Sanbao also hesitated.
But Xiao Erbao said, "No, we're going to find Granny Mountain Spirit, we definitely won't fall into a trap. Besides, we're going up the mountain so that Mom won't leave us."
"If Mother doesn't leave us, we won't be afraid even if we fall into a trap!"
Hearing what Xiao Erbao said, the little ones stopped thinking about anything else and followed Yang Xiaoshu up the mountain.
At this time, Ning Huan was unaware that the four little ones had secretly run off to the mountain.
She took some herbs from her consciousness space that would help Zhou Jing'an recover, brewed them, and gave them to him to drink.
In fact, Zhou Jing'an recovered quickly not only because of the highly effective medicinal herbs in her consciousness space, but also because she gave him an antidote pill.
The poison in his body was already quite severe, which was why Zhou Jing'an had been bedridden for so long. After the poison was neutralized, Ning Huan actually had a feeling that Zhou Jing'an's body had recovered most of its strength.
Pang saw Ning Huan feeding Zhou Jing'an medicine at the door and nodded with great satisfaction.
She had been worried about her daughter and son-in-law's relationship, fearing they would have conflicts and arguments. Now, seeing her daughter thoughtfully preparing medicine for her son-in-law, she felt much more at ease.
Then I went to the kitchen to wash the fruit for the four little ones, so they could eat it when they came back.
Zhou Jing'an accepted the bowl of medicine from Ning Huan, but his mind was still preoccupied with the conversation they had had about getting a divorce the day before.
He tossed and turned all night thinking about how to discuss the divorce with Ning Huan today, but the words just wouldn't come out.
So he asked coldly, "What are your plans after the divorce?"
Ning Huan raised an eyebrow. She hadn't expected Zhou Jing'an to bring this up again. Did he really think she was going to cling to him?
She thought for a moment and then said to Zhou Jing'an, "I plan to go to town to do some business. I've been cooperating with Renjitang for a while now. I can save up some money to open a shop by selling medicinal herbs."
Hearing that Ning Huan planned to start her own business, Zhou Jing'an was somewhat surprised: "What kind of business do you want to start?"
He originally thought that Ning Huan would go back to her own home after the divorce, and that it would be better to have her parents take care of her than to suffer alone.
Ning Huan hadn't really decided what kind of business she wanted to start, but she had always wanted to open a restaurant. That was the reason she started becoming a food blogger.
If she gains ten million followers, it means her food is delicious and people like it, so she should open her own restaurant.
But she already had tens of millions of fans, and she could no longer spare the time to do anything else.
Then, I unexpectedly came into this world.
Thinking of this, Ning Huan shook her head and said, "I haven't decided yet. If possible, I would probably open a small restaurant."
