One day when Xiao Guo was coming back from herding cattle, he ran into Mrs. Yang. He wanted to call out to her, but then he swallowed his words.

There was a dark-skinned man following Mrs. Yang. Xiao Guo stopped and looked at the pink bubble atmosphere between them. Xiao Guo nodded in understanding. This must be her man Yang Feng. He turned out to be back. It was also because she hadn't seen Mrs. Yang for these days.

I decided not to call her and let the couple enjoy their own world together.

Zhuangzhuang followed Xiaoguo, pulled her hand and said, "Let's go."

Xiaoguo held his hand tightly and led the cow back home.

Along the way, perhaps because the men in the village came back one after another, the originally quiet Taohua Village suddenly became lively.

Xiaoguo felt really uncomfortable when she saw the man suddenly appear, but there was nothing she could do.

A few days later, Xiaoguo was bending over and sweeping the floor. She looked up at Zhuangzhuang, who had not gone out for several days, and sighed slightly.

This is not a solution. Xiaoguo decides to have a frank talk with Zhuangzhuang. Although he is young, he is mature at heart. She must talk to him.

"Zhuangzhuang, why don't you go play with Brother Xiaohu?"

Xiaoguo poured a glass of water for Zhuangzhuang and sat down next to him.

Zhuangzhuang was writing seriously, and he wrote for the whole morning, forming a thick stack of rice paper. Normally, he would go to play with Xiaohu in the morning when he had nothing to do, but he hadn't been there in recent days. To be more precise, he hadn't gone out, except when he went out with Xiaohu on weekdays.

"I'm trying to copy the whole book, so I don't have time."

Xiaoguo didn't believe it at all. He just said "oh" and nodded casually.

"Zhuangzhuang, do you miss your daddy?"

Xiaoguo doesn't beat around the bush and prefers to play it straight.

Zhuangzhuang's hand paused, leaving an abrupt ink spot in the neat verses of the poem.

"......"

Seeing that Zhuangzhuang didn't say anything, Xiaoguo reflected on herself for the first time, wondering if she was too direct in her words. She was thinking about how to make up for it.

"So strong..."

"Mom, what kind of person is Dad?"

Xiao Guo was stunned. Looking at Zhuang Zhuang's serious eyes, she was a little stunned. What kind of person is Jiang Danhe?

"he..."

Xiaoguo tried carefully to recall the man in her memory, but there was only a vague shadow and she could hardly remember his appearance.

Zhuangzhuang saw Xiaoguo was silent and felt a little anxious. He really wanted to know what his father was like.

"He...is a very filial and responsible person."

Xiaoguo recalled from his memory that he dug a well in the yard for the sake of his mother. He was a filial person.

When he was arrested, he was not like the others who were begging for mercy or worrying about his own life and death. Instead, he kept talking about his mother and his wife, so he is a responsible person.

Jiang Danhe should be a good man, Xiaoguo thought.

Zhuangzhuang listened to Xiaoguo's description, forming a vague outline in his mind.

"And what does he look like?"

Zhuangzhuang asked Xiaoguo anxiously.

Xiaoguo frowned slightly. What did he look like? In her memory, the original owner and he had only met on their wedding night. That night, it was under the dim candlelight. When she lifted the veil, the original owner was too embarrassed to look at his face. The two of them got along naturally. The only time they saw each other was in the morning, but he was taken away before she could take a closer look.

So when Zhuangzhuang asked him about his appearance, Xiaoguo was really a little confused.

"He...the big eyes are his, the nose is his, and the mouth is his."

Xiaoguo spoke in an ambiguous way, and Zhuangzhuang was obviously dissatisfied with this statement...

"mother?"

Xiao Guo sighed, she really tried her best...it was so hard for the baby.

"mother?"

Zhuangzhuang continued to urge Xiaoguo, staring at Xiaoguo with his two big watery eyes, which made Xiaoguo stunned.

"Let's go find uncle!"

Xiaoguo suddenly thought of Qin Anming. He definitely remembered Jiang Shanhe's appearance because it was Qin Anming who talked to Jiang Shanhe during the matchmaking and engagement.

So he must still remember what Jiang Shanhe looks like! That's right! Shouldn't he?

Xiaoguo was full of fighting spirit, but after all, we haven't seen each other for a long time, what if he forgot...

Never mind. It’s better than my memory anyway. After all, he has met Jiang Shanhe many times. It’s better than mine anyway.

When Zhuangzhuang heard Xiaoguo say that she wanted to find her uncle, he was not as happy as usual. Why did his mother suddenly go to find his uncle? Was she trying to change the subject?

"Mom, I'm serious, don't change the subject."

With a wrinkled little face, there are two big words in his eyes: serious!

Xiao Guo laughed, "You even know how to change the subject, haha."

"Ahem, I'm not trying to change the subject. I want your uncle to tell you what your father looks like. After all, your mother isn't as good at expressing herself as your uncle."

When Zhuangzhuang stared at him with his little tiger eyes, Xiaoguo tactfully put away his smile and explained seriously.

"Let's go, let's go now."

Zhuangzhuang put down the book and was about to drag Xiaoguo away. Xiaoguo grabbed the bedpost with all her strength, "Zhuangzhuang, Zhuangzhuang, it's noon, it's time to eat, let's go tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow."

This tiger boy, how can he be so strong! He almost pulled me over.

After Xiaoguo's repeated assurances, Zhuangzhuang finally calmed down and gasped.

Zhuangzhuang finally discovered that his mother was good in every way except that she didn't keep her word, especially when it came to her promise to take him to find his uncle, which she always said would come in a few days.

Xiaoguo sat on the bed, looking at Zhuangzhuang who was panting heavily. What a tiger boy! He is really a tiger! He is worthy of being a tiger!

Rubbing Zhuangzhuang's arm, he found that the boy was quite strong and the flesh was not grown in vain.

The mother and son stared at each other.

Before dawn the next day, Xiaoguo was woken up by Zhuangzhuang.

I opened my eyes and looked at the sky outside. It was still dark. What was going on?

"Zhuangzhuang, what are you doing?"

"Mom, mom, it's time to go!"

Zhuangzhuang didn't sleep much the whole night. He kept thinking about what his father looked like.

"It's still dark, baby, sleep a little longer."

Xiaoguo coaxed Zhuangzhuang and finally pushed him into the quilt. He reached out and patted his back, trying to coax him to sleep again.

But Zhuangzhuang was as fast as a clockwork, as nimble as a loach, and his whole body was slippery.

Xiaoguo couldn't fall asleep because of his noise and woke up completely.

"Mom, shall we go?"

Zhuangzhuang begged Xiaoguo, even using his pitiful baby voice, but Xiaoguo remained unmoved. It was useless to say anything. It was impossible for him to go so early. When he arrived in the county, it would be the morning rush hour in the restaurant. There would definitely be a lot of people, and Qin Anming would definitely be distracted.

Xiaoguo still lay on the bed, letting Zhuangzhuang beg and kiss her.

Zhuangzhuang was getting up and cooking when the sun rose. He was very anxious and accused Xiaoguo with a dark look in his eyes, "Mom, you are treating me worse and worse."

Xiao Guo didn't even raise his eyes and lazily said something shocking.

"We are all familiar with each other, why are you being polite?"

Zhuangzhuang didn't hear it, so he asked again out of curiosity. Xiaoguo smiled and shook his head, "Nothing, nothing, hehe."

Xiao Guo was acting like a scoundrel and just stopped talking and didn't get up.

When Zhuangzhuang couldn't bear it anymore, Xiaoguo got up and said, "Let's go!"

If you keep teasing him, Zhuang Zhuang will start to cry. Let’s linger on the road for a while longer. We won’t make breakfast and will go to the county to eat.

Zhuangzhuang was the first to get out of bed, having already put on his clothes.

Xiaoguo looked at Zhuangzhuang who was leaving and sighed softly.

I hope Qin Anming still remembers Jiang Shanhe's face...
