Chapter 36: Meet Again



Chen Ahfu had traveled through time for so long, but this was the first time she had touched silver, and she was quite excited. She put the silver in her arms, but in fact, she had already put it into the space.

Seeing the envious and jealous eyes around her, she couldn't help but feel a little flustered. She held Dabao tighter with one hand and looked around for Jin Yanzi. Where did that little thing go again?

Chen Dabao was so happy that he couldn't control himself at first, but when he saw the eyes around him, he quickly suppressed his ecstasy, held Chen Afu tightly and whispered, "Mom, pay attention, the uncle selling Feilong has red eyes when he sees us."

Chen Ahfu looked around for Jin Yanzi. Suddenly, she saw a swallow circling above the beautiful woman who was approaching the nunnery gate. It was Jin Yanzi.

Thinking of the big phoenix hairpin on the beautiful woman's head, her heart was lifted up. She let go of Dabao's hand and pinched her left palm with her right hand. The golden swallow really swooped down and flew into her sleeve, chirping, "Why did you call me back? Can't you see I'm busy?"

Chen Ahfu said softly, "What if others see that I have earned so much money and want to harm me? You have to stay with me and protect me."

Jin Yanzi was so angry that she chirped, "I'm afraid of you. I'll have to find you a bodyguard in the future to save you from bothering me every time."

Chen Dabao thought his mother was talking to him, so he puffed out his chest and said, "Don't be afraid, mom. I will protect you."

Chen Ahfu led Dabao down the mountain quickly. The golden swallow clung to Chen Ahfu's collar, and at first glance, others thought there was a little swallow embroidered on her collar.

It was noon, and there were few people on the road. Although the mountain was covered with dense shade, the sunlight shining through the branches was still scorching. Chen Ahfu was excited and nervous, and with the heat, he felt the sweat on his back soaking his clothes.

Seeing that Dabao was wearing pants that fell off the crotch and couldn't even take a step, and was jogging after her, she bent down and wanted to pick him up and take him away.

Dabao twisted his body unwillingly and said, "Grandma asked her son to protect her. It would be so embarrassing if I saw her letting her carry me."

At this time, Chen Ahfu felt that two men had caught up with him and were walking two steps away from them. Dabao also felt it and couldn't help but hold his mother's hand tighter.

Two hundred meters ahead, there were several huge rocks standing there, just enough to block the sight of passers-by. The further she walked, the more nervous Chen Ahfu became. She slowed down her pace, hoping to wait for a few more passers-by to come down the mountain and then go the same way. She didn't want to expose Jin Yanzi unless it was absolutely necessary.

The two men might really choose to take action there, so they slowed down and followed behind them.

When they were still a few dozen meters away from the boulder, they suddenly saw a dozen horsemen and two carriages coming up from the bottom of the mountain. Chen Afu was delighted. The time-traveling girl was blessed. She quickly took Dabao's hand and walked forward quickly.

Arriving at the boulder, they ran into those people. Chen Ahfu was attracted by one of the people on horseback. She had never forgotten that person. He was the hero who saved her when she crossed over. He was wearing a moon-white robe with round collar and arrow sleeves embroidered with round flowers and a wide golden belt. He was cold, proud and handsome, and he was particularly eye-catching on horseback.

Chen Dabao also recognized him and excitedly shouted to the man, "My benefactor, my benefactor, I meet you again."

The man felt that the child seemed to be talking to him, so he stopped and looked at Dabao in a daze.

Dabao shook off Chen Afu's hand and bowed to him, "My benefactor, have you forgotten that you saved my mother in the county a few months ago? My mother's illness has been greatly cured. Thank you..." As he spoke, he bowed a few more times.

While Dabao was talking, a little head popped out of the window of the carriage in front. It was a little girl, about four or five years old. She had fair skin, chubby cheeks, a chubby mouth, and two big round eyes that looked like black grapes just pulled out of the water... Although they were moist, they were not lively.

This child is so beautiful that it makes people intoxicated. But those beautiful eyes are so dull that it makes people feel sad.

Jin Yanzi's tongue couldn't be straightened again, and she murmured, "What a pretty sister, prettier than Dabao." Then, she flew to the back of the girl's hand that was holding on to the car window.

The girl's eyes finally moved, and she turned to Jin Yanzi. Her face seemed to be moved, and she whispered, "The bird is smiling, the bird is smiling." Her voice was soft and gentle, and her speech was very slow. Her little mouth opened and closed like peach blossoms in March blown by the breeze.

Jin Yanzi also whispered twice to the little girl, her tone so soft that it made people's legs go weak.

The man was impatient to listen to Chen Dabao's mumbling, but he heard the girl talking. His face lit up, he quickly got off the horse, came to the side of the carriage, lowered his head and smiled, "Yan'er, was that what you said just now?"

His voice was very soft and gentle, and he spoke cautiously, as if he was afraid of scaring the girl. At this moment, the ice in his eyes had melted into spring water, and the smile on his face was as warm as the spring sun.

The girl ignored his flattery and continued to stare at the golden swallow blankly, saying the same thing again, "The bird—smiled."

The man was even happier after hearing this and said with a smile, "It was really Yan'er who spoke. Yan'er likes this bird? Daddy will catch it for you right away."

After saying that, he reached out to catch the golden swallow. His hand was fast, but the golden swallow was even faster. In a flash of black shadow, the golden swallow flew into the sky.

When the girl saw the bird suddenly fly away, tears rolled down her eyes and her mouth pursed. She said slowly, "Bird, bird, it's gone. Bird, bird, it's gone..."

The man regretted it so much that his face turned green when he saw that he had scared the swallow away. He quickly got into the carriage, hugged the girl and coaxed her, "I'm sorry, it's Daddy's fault. Daddy was worried. Be good, Yan'er. Let's go visit grandma first, and when we come back, Daddy will catch birds for you."

The girl had no other words, and still said, "The bird—flew away..."

The carriage rumbled away.

Chen Afu sighed, "Even in wealthy families there are still pitiful people." She felt that the child did not look like an idiot, but rather seemed to have autism as she had talked about in her previous life.

Dabao looked at the carriage road going away and said, "Mother, that little sister is so pitiful. She likes Jinbao so much. Let's give Jinbao to her."

Chen Ahfu asked, "Jin Bao comes to our house, leaves our house, can we control it?"

Dabao pouted and said, "Oh, we can't do anything about it. It doesn't listen to us."

The golden swallow flew down again and stuck to Chen Ahfu's collar, saying unhappily, "You naughty kid, you are so generous even though you are poor. You still want to give me away. But, that little girl just now was really pretty."

The two men who had followed them had already run away when they saw that the little boy "knew" those people riding big horses. Chen Ahfu led Dabao to the front of Lingyin Temple. There were still so many people here, but there were fewer people at the stalls selling things, while the stalls selling food were very lively.

Wang and A-Lu were already very anxious. When they saw them coming, A-Lu called out to them loudly. They still had a sewing basket in front of them that they hadn't sold yet.

Dabao ran over excitedly, pulled Wang and Alu to squat, and whispered in their ears, "My mother is so capable. She sold all the sewing kits and made a lot of money."
