The grass on the hillside below fell to both sides. Qiu Ge had been sticking his head out, but when he heard his voice, he quickly lay dormant and stopped moving.
It was under Feng Qingzi's control when he accidentally frightened the Princess of Yong while living in Prince Yong's mansion. In a rage, Prince Yong almost ordered Feng Qingzi to skin it alive. And Jian Ning was able to kill even Feng Qingzi, so it was natural for it to fear the strong.
"Uncle, it's Brother Qiu. It came back with us." Ah Man looked at Ding Youtian's face with a flattering tone.
Jian Ning was secretly amazed. This little girl, who was brought up in a wealthy family, actually knew how to please people. It was not known whether it was because of the environment that had changed or because of the child's nature.
"Mom! You're back." The four little ones were still awake. Hearing the noise, Dabao led his three younger sisters out.
Tian, Chang and Meixiang also followed out. When Tian saw Ma Xiaomai, she ran straight towards him.
Ma Xiaomai didn't run. Seeing his mother raise her hand, he turned his back, intending to take a few blows. But Tian raised her hand high, then gently brushed it against his back, like dusting it off, while still cursing, "Little bastard, if you have the guts, don't let your master find you. It's better for you to die outside."
"Hehe." Ma Xiaomai turned around and said with a smile: "My father is back too. Mom, let's go to the village entrance to wait for him."
"It's not like your father doesn't know the way home." Tian said as she pulled Ma Xiaomai down the slope. After walking a few steps, she remembered and turned back to thank Jian Ning loudly.
She just thought that Jian Ning and the others had come back first in a carriage, and didn't ask anything else. She only asked whether Ma Xiaomai really went to the county government office to find his father.
"No..." Ma Xiaomai was beaming as he told his mother about what had happened in the past half day.
On the other side, Jian Ning thanked Chang and asked her to go back quickly. Her Ding Sheng also started school today, but she put aside her family affairs and stayed here to accompany the four little ones and wait for her to come back. She remembered this favor.
After Chang left, Jian Ning told the four children about Qiu Ge, emphasizing that he was harmless and could fly. She, Ah Man, and Ma Xiaomai all rode him back home. She had originally planned to take Qiu Ge to the back mountains to find a cave for him to live in if they really couldn't accept it, but after hearing this, Sanniu was the first to cheer.
"Oh, great! Where is it? Mom, please let Brother Qiu come out!"
Dabao also nodded maturely and said, "The teacher said today that filial piety is the most important virtue. If mother says to raise us, then we will raise us. Sons listen to mother and father." He glanced at Ding Youtian and added.
The big girl followed with a "hmm".
Only Erniu showed a timid look on her face and said hesitantly, "But, but snakes can bite, bite people. Uncle Wu was bitten by a snake before..."
Jane Ning didn't try to correct her for calling him the wrong name. The child was still young, so it was normal that she wouldn't be able to change her ways in a short time. She just told her, "Mom won't let it bite anyone. If it dares to bite anyone, Mom will kill it!"
When Qiu Ge, who was dormant in the grass, heard the snake, he felt a chill on his back. He swore that he had never bit anyone and would not take the initiative to bite anyone. To show his gratitude, he swam up on his own initiative, raised his head and nodded it continuously, as if asking for shelter.
Ah Man cried out "Ci Oh" and ran over to hug it. Seeing this, Sanniu also wanted to go over, but was stopped by Dabao.
"Take a look first, don't rush."
This kid has a strong sense of vigilance.
Jian Ning patted Dabao's head and said with a smile, "It's okay. Brother Qiu seems to be quite docile. Don't worry. Look, Ah Man is not afraid."
Dabao let go of his hand and Sanniu rushed over.
"Mom." The big girl asked, "Can Ah Man really talk to Brother Qiu?"
"Yes, I can."
"Why?" the big girl asked again.
"I can, I can. There's no need to talk about it in so many words." Dabao said calmly, and walked towards Brother Qiu with his hands behind his back.
Seeing that the two girls, A'man and Sanniu, were not afraid and were having fun with Brother Qiu, he was not willing to be outdone and directly reached out to touch Brother Qiu's head.
He touched this head, then that head. Whichever head he touched, Qiu Ge would lower his head, close his eyes, and lean into his arms, showing a very intimate and friendly attitude. Dabao was so happy that he hugged him and dragged him into the yard.
Dabao was very strong by nature, and he could drag a snake that was dozens of meters long without any effort. He coiled up as soon as Qiu Ge entered the yard. The four little silver foxes were not afraid. Yuanbao and Maoqiu approached Qiu Ge first and rubbed against him. Even Jinbao, who was held tightly in Erniu's arms, couldn't keep calm. He struggled to get down and rubbed against him a few times.
"Where is Guoguo?" Ding Youtian didn't see Guoguo, so he looked at Jian Ning and asked.
"It should be back first. Where did it go, Guoguo~" Jian Ning pretended to look around, then pointed behind Ding Youtian, "Look, there it is."
Ding Youtian turned around, and Guoguo jumped into his arms. It hadn't been seen for quite some time, and it was so happy that it rubbed against his face and neck affectionately. Ding Youtian suddenly thought, "You evil creature, are you the kitten I rescued two years ago?"
Two years ago, one day Ding Youtian came back from the fields. When he got home, Jian pulled him aside, pointed to the gloomy sky, and then told him that Dabao had not come back yet. She was worried that it would rain heavily soon and Dabao would get sick if he got wet.
During that time, Dabao, less than six years old, was assigned by Mrs. Meng to collect firewood in the back mountains every day. When Ding Youtian heard that Dabao had not returned, he comforted her with a few words, then took his sickle and went to the back mountains to look for Dabao. He heard a faint groaning sound on the mountain and thought Dabao was injured. Following the sound, he found a small wild cat with its right hind leg entangled in vines.
It seemed that the cat had been entangled for a long time. He used a sickle to cut the vines and untied the thin vines wrapped around the cat's feet. He was in a hurry to find Dabao that day and his mind was all on Dabao, so he had forgotten about this matter long ago.
