After the paper crane finished speaking, it fell to the ground with a plop.
Zhao Ying was silent for a while, and then the voices of Wen Ruhai and Liang Su came.
Previously, Zhao Ying asked Wen Ruhai to find durian, but Wen Ruhai not only failed to find it, he also doubted whether such a thing really existed in the world.
Shangguan Qingyue's bright eyes dimmed upon hearing this. Zhao Ying had no choice but to persuade him. She thought the little guy had let it go, but who knew he'd run away from home in the blink of an eye!
Zhao Xi was puzzled when he learned that Shangguan Qingyue had run away. He asked why he couldn't even keep an eye on a three-year-old kid. Because Zhao Ying's face was so ugly, Zhao Xi kept his mouth shut.
After Wen Ruhai and Liang Su learned that Shangguan Qingyue had run away, they were stunned for a long time and felt relieved in their hearts. Fortunately, the people who were able to walk outside were all their people, so it would be easy to find the child if he was lost.
But they couldn't tell Zhao Ying directly, so they had to pretend to be hurried and scared and leave to find someone.
Shangguan Qingyue, carrying a small backpack, walked unsteadily on the street, and all he saw were adults' legs.
【La la la la la la la…】
The vendors on both sides were shouting weakly, and their stalls were filled with various fruits and vegetables. Shangguan Qingyue's eyes suddenly lit up, and he ran towards a fruit stall.
"Uncle, how much is this fruit?"
The vendor saw a little kid asking for the price, and he quickly looked around and asked curiously, "Little kid, where are your parents?"
"I ran away from home!"
Street vendor: ...
The vendor was wondering whether to report it to the police. Meanwhile, Shangguan Qingyue was already getting anxious. "Uncle, are you still going to sell it?"
"Sell! Sell! Which one do you want?"
"I want one! I want two, one for me to eat and one for me to put in the backpack on the back!"
The vendor looked at her amusedly and smiled, then patiently picked out two large ones, put one in Shangguan Qingyue's backpack, and handed the other to her, "Little one, do you have the silver to pay?"
"Of course! How much silver?"
As she spoke, Shangguan Qingyue put her small hand into the waist belt that was stretched by her small belly, dug out a penny from it, and handed it to the vendor, "No need for change!"
Street vendor: ...
The peddler took the penny and curled his lips. Looking at the little guy's appearance, he thought he was very rich, but it was just one penny.
However, his two fruits were worth almost one cent, so he neither made a profit nor a loss.
The vendor took the money and said, "I'll sell it to you cheaper this time. I won't make any profit at all!"
Shangguan Qingyue ignored what the vendor said, turned around and left with the big fruit in his hands, but before he could eat it, his eyes lit up again.
Immediately afterwards, all the vendors on the street were given a humiliating look by Shangguan Qingyue.
The backpack behind Shangguan Qingyue was already overflowing, weighing down the little girl so much that she could barely stand up straight. She trudged forward with difficulty, grimacing, "Which of these is a durian? Let Mommy see when I get back..."
"Catch her quickly!" an angry shout came from the distance.
Shangguan Qingyue's eyes blurred, and suddenly a beggar appeared and passed by her like a gust of wind, knocking the little guy who was already unsteady to the ground. The little guy cried out "ouch", and the fruits in the basket rolled all over the ground.
Then, it was crushed by the servants chasing after the beggar.
Shangguan Qingyue: ...
Shangguan Qingyue was furious. He stood up quickly, put his hands on his hips, glared at the people who had already run away, and shouted with blazing eyes, "Do you have any sense of public morality?"
"You don't have to pay for stepping on someone else's fruit!"
"I really didn't check the almanac before going out, and I ran into a bunch of barbarians like you!"
However, her appearance was too unintimidating, and even a nearby vendor teased her, "Little girl, you should be thankful they didn't trample on you like a fruit!"
After all, she wasn't much bigger than the watermelons he sold.
Shangguan Qingyue frowned in frustration, squatted down and looked at the broken fruits on the ground with heartache. She wanted to buy more, but her money was all gone. It seemed that she had to look somewhere else.
[Hmph! Damn it! Don't let me see them again!]
The little guy clenched his fists, stood up, and left angrily.
As soon as Shangguan Qingyue left, Liang Su came with his troops. After asking around, he found out that Shangguan Qingyue had gone into the mountains. Liang Su's eyes darkened and he thought to himself that this kid was really fast and they couldn't catch up with him even on horseback.
Go into the mountains?
Liang Su looked at the endless dark green mountains in the distance. There were so many snakes, rats, insects and ants in them. This was bad news!
Liang Su rode forward with his men without a second thought.
…
Shangguan Qingyue didn't know the way at all. Along the way, she asked everyone she met, "How do I get to northern Myanmar?!"
The passerby pointed to her and said that there was a big river beyond the mountain, and that they would reach their destination after crossing the river.
So Shangguan Qingyue went into the mountains.
It was humid and hot in the mountains in early summer, especially at noon when the sun was shining brightly. The little guy's pink and tender face was sunburned and his clothes were soaked. Suddenly, there was a rumbling sound from his stomach. Shangguan Qingyue covered his belly and pouted.
[I'm so hungry, is it time to eat? ]
The little guy looked up at the sun with his eyes narrowed, and suddenly a smile appeared on his lips. "Okay, time to go home for dinner!"
So Shangguan Qingyue went down the mountain again and hurried back to the inn to have dinner.
The inn was in chaos. When Zhao Ying saw Shangguan Qingyue running towards her happily, she suspected that she was seeing things.
Until the little guy came up and hugged her legs, and said, "Mommy, I'm going home to eat. Hurry up and make some food for me. I have to go out and continue my journey after I'm full!"
Zhao Ying calmed down, picked up Shangguan Qingyue, and kissed him as if he had been found again. She swallowed all the words she wanted to scold him. Forget it, after all, the child was so cute.
