Qin Anning didn't care about that at all; her eyes were full of her niece whom she hadn't seen in a long time. Qin Mingzhu spotted Qin Anning next to Fu Wan at a glance and thought she was seeing things.
After rubbing her eyes, she realized that Qin Anning was real. Being only six or seven years old, she immediately teared up, pouted, and ran over to throw herself into Qin Anning's arms.
"Auntie!"
"Why!"
Qin Anning hugged Qin Mingzhu tightly, only then realizing that the child had grown quite a bit taller than last time.
If her older sister were here, she would be very happy to see Mingzhu like this.
Fu Ling hadn't seen Qin Anning for a long time and didn't quite recognize her beautiful aunt. She ran over and snuggled into Fu Wan's arms, looking at them curiously.
Seeing the harmonious scene between Qin Mingzhu and Qin Anning, Fu Wan felt a surge of tenderness in her heart and patted her daughter's little hand in her arms.
Um?
But the feel of this is not quite right!
Why does it feel so sticky?
Fu Wan shifted her gaze from Qin Mingzhu and the others to her own daughter's hand. The next second, she felt her pupils dilate and her hair stand on end in anger.
"Fu Lingling! What the hell are you holding in your hand?!"
Someone tell her, how come this child still has half a sparrow's leg in his hand!
Looking at the bloody mess, I don't know how this child isn't scared.
Fu Ling was startled by her mother's roar. Her survival instinct made her quickly drop the sparrow leg she was holding on the ground, then pick at her fingers and hopped a meter away.
Fu Wan looked at the few drops of sparrow blood still on her hand and felt a headache coming on. Logically speaking, shouldn't children be most afraid of these things? But her own daughter seemed fearless. She wondered who her daughter took after.
Just then, a dark shadow swaggered down from the threshold, its sharp claws pressing down on the sparrow's leg, and then it pecked at it, leaving the sparrow's leg stuck in the house.
The shadowy figure was none other than Fu family's newest member, Red Falcon Little Yellow.
Little Huang tilted its head and thought for a few seconds. Without eating the sparrow leg it was holding, it hopped a few steps to Fu Wan.
Qin Mingzhu and Qin Anning had no time to catch up on their relationship; all their eyes were fixed on the bird.
Fu Wan was even more alarmed. The bird was looking at her with the same cold gaze it would give its prey. Could it be that it had come to take revenge just because she had disciplined her daughter?
The next second, right in front of everyone, Xiao Huang jumped over and placed the sparrow leg he was eating in front of Fu Wan, then rubbed his head against Fu Wan's trouser leg, looking like he was saying, "Don't blame us for being such a sycophant."
This appearance left Fu Wan speechless, while Qin Anning burst out laughing first.
When a beautiful woman smiles, it's even more delightful, and Fu Wan's anger vanished.
Furthermore, Fu Ling is still just a child; if anyone should be cursing, it should be the adult behind her who aided and abetted the evildoer, Fu Ming.
Fu Ming saw Qin Anning as soon as he entered the door. He was about to greet her when he remembered that he had just gone to catch birds and raid their nests with his nieces, and his clothes were a bit messy.
So he rushed into the kitchen as fast as he could, washed the dirt off his hands and his face, before daring to appear in front of everyone.
Unexpectedly, when he came out, he saw Qin Anning being amused by Fu Wan and Xiao Huang, and now he was even more confused about what he had just done.
"Comrade Fu Ming!"
A roar exploded in Fu Ming's ears.
He instinctively replied, "Here!"
After replying, he realized something was wrong and asked his younger sister in a somewhat ingratiating manner, "Wan, what's wrong?"
Fu Wan was speechless. "Why did you take them to catch sparrows?"
Catching sparrows is a small matter, but what if the sparrows accidentally hurt the two children?
Fu Ming scratched his head. "Little Huang was hungry. It got into a fight with the chickens early this morning, so I took it out to forage for food. It can't fly, so I had to do a good deed and catch some food for it."
Seeing that her uncle had taken all the responsibility upon himself, Fu Ling, a child with a sense of loyalty, took small steps forward and looked at Fu Wan with teary eyes.
"Mom, I asked Uncle to catch the sparrows. Little Huang was worried I wouldn't have anything to eat, so he gave me half a sparrow leg..."
So that's how this half of a sparrow's leg came about.
Fu Wan sighed, "Go wash your hands first, with soap."
Upon hearing this, Qin Mingzhu grabbed Fu Ling and ran towards the water bucket.
Upon seeing this, Fu Ming quickly fled the scene and helped the two children scoop water.
Qin Anning watched the spectacle with a smile on her face, while Fu Wan felt somewhat embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, Anning, I made you laugh at me."
Qin Anning waved her hand, "It's alright, Wan, she's just a kid, that's how they are."
"Mingzhu and the others are doing well, getting close to nature. This bird is also quite nice; it's the first time I've ever seen such a human-like bird of prey."
As she spoke, Fu Wan suddenly remembered that there was a fluffy little bird of prey squatting beside her legs. Looking down, she saw that the "bird of prey" was half-closing its eyes. Fu Wan thought it was asleep, but following its gaze, she saw the sparrow's leg on the ground.
She just wasn't looking at the ground, and now this guy is drooling all over the place.
"Little Huang, you should finish your food."
She stood up and gently nudged the bird with her leg. Startled by her action, Little Yellow jumped several steps. When Fu Wan pushed it towards the sparrow's leg, it jumped over and swallowed the sparrow's leg as quickly as possible.
He looked as if he was afraid Fu Wan would regret it.
This appearance made Qin Anning laugh again.
Just then, the sound of a bicycle bell rang again at the gate. Someone pushed the gate open and came in. The people standing in the yard were the first to react. Fu Ling exclaimed, "Uncle Xiaobai!"
Fu Wan sighed inwardly, thinking how lively this Mid-Autumn Festival was. Not only did she not expect Qin Anning to come, but Bai Qianzhou also came.
Ye Xiaocui, who was busy in the kitchen, came out with a smile, "Oh, Xiaobai is here today too! Come in, come in and sit down."
Fu Ming washed the two children's hands clean, and now they came over to help him carry things.
"Xiaobai, why did you buy so much stuff again?"
Bai Qianzhou smiled and said, "I went to the county town and bought some things to give to some elders. I thought I'd come and visit them now."
Fu Wan and Qin Anning came out of the house. Bai Qianzhou was not surprised to see Qin Anning, and simply nodded to Fu Wan in greeting.
"Ah Wan, it's been a long time."
It's not a long time at all; it's at most half a month.
"Comrade Bai, it's been a long time."
"Xiao Bai, did you and Comrade Qin discuss this beforehand and come here specifically for this occasion?"
Fu Ming, fearing an awkward atmosphere, quickly tried to lighten the mood with jokes.
Bai Qianzhou raised an eyebrow. "Yes, it's all agreed upon."
"It's not very interesting to celebrate at the camp. I thought it would be lively here, so I came here specifically to join in the fun."
Qin Anning chuckled and joked, "Cousin, I'm much faster than you."
“Your car is definitely faster than mine with four wheels. Uncle Zhao just happened to need me for something, otherwise I would have gone with you.”
