"Really? Is it possible? Can I really go to my sister's house?" Little Stone's eyes instantly lit up with anticipation and excitement.
"Of course it's true. Hurry up and eat. I'll take you back after we finish eating." Yun Zhourong nodded affirmatively.
"Okay, I'll eat, I'll eat!" Little Stone nodded repeatedly, then wolfed down his food.
He felt that this meal of dumplings was the best he had ever eaten in his life.
It was something he would remember for the rest of his life.
On this day, a beautiful woman appeared in his world like a goddess, rescuing him from dire straits and giving him a bright future.
After finishing the dumplings, Yun Zhourong got up and helped the injured people treat their wounds to prevent them from bleeding to death. Then she went to the government office to notify people to come and take them away.
If it were anyone else, Liu Heila might have tried to argue, but Yun Zhourong was the prefect's goddaughter, so he was completely honest.
Yun Zhourong had no say in the trial, and directly took Little Stone and the foolish brother to leave.
Seeing this, Little Stone ran to the corner of the wall, dug out something, and carefully put it in his arms.
"Okay, can we go now?"
Yun Zhourong didn't ask any further questions about what he had hidden.
"Okay, we can go now."
Little Stone carefully closed the door, took one last reluctant look, and then walked over to Yun Zhourong's side.
Seeing the reluctance in his eyes, Yun Zhourong comforted him, "Don't worry, it's your house. It's still there. I'll have someone renovate it in a few days. If you want to come back when you're older, you can still live there."
"Mmm, thank you, sister!"
Upon hearing this, Little Stone's eyes finally lit up, and he thanked Yun Zhourong gratefully.
The foolish older brother clearly rarely travels far; he was timid and hesitant the whole way, tugging at Yun Zhourong's sleeve and looking around, constantly hiding behind her.
Yun Zhourong knew he had an intellectual disability, so she didn't make a big deal out of it and just let him be.
Such strange behavior naturally attracted the attention of many people, but fortunately Yun Zhourong was wearing a veil, so she was not too embarrassed.
When they finally returned home, both Madam Zhao and Old Madam Yun were surprised to see her bring two strangers back.
However, after Yun Zhourong told them what had happened, the two of them were both angry and sympathetic to the two people's plight.
"Sure, we have two empty rooms here, enough for us to stay."
As she spoke, Zhao hurriedly got up and said, "I'll go make the bed. The child is so badly injured, he needs to rest quickly."
"I... I'll just live with my brother."
Upon seeing this, Little Stone quickly said, "Brother is afraid of the dark, he's too scared to go out alone, and he doesn't know how to put on clothes."
"Oh, he's so sensible at such a young age. Alright, then you'll be responsible for taking good care of your brother." Zhao patted Xiao Shitou's head tenderly before leaving.
Feeling the warm touch on his head, Little Stone was momentarily stunned.
It really feels like his mother patting his head when he was little.
After making the beds and letting the two brothers sleep, Zhao went out.
However, I left a small nightlight on for them.
That's a rechargeable model; it can last for several nights even at the lowest brightness setting.
"Little brother, that thing is lit up..."
After Zhao left, the mentally challenged brother immediately got up, squatted in front of the nightlight, and curiously poked it.
The younger brother was equally puzzled. He leaned closer and stared at the nightlight, looking it over from left to right. Then he reached out and touched it, only to find that it wasn't hot at all.
She couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "The things in my sister's house are truly amazing; I've never seen a lamp like this before."
“Fairy sister, transform things…and they appear in an instant…” Upon hearing this, the silly brother exaggeratedly gestured with his hands.
"Yes, yes, yes, my sister is the best."
Little Stone didn't take his words to heart, thinking he was just talking nonsense. He agreed with him twice and then pulled the man back to bed.
After feeling the softness and warmth of the quilt, I couldn't help but put my nose close to it and take a deep sniff. "It smells so good and it's so warm. This is the warmest quilt I've ever slept under."
"Hengheng likes this bed." The older brother, who was a bit simple-minded, also took a deep sniff of the blanket and said happily.
"Yes, I like it too. Brother, we'll live here from now on, and we won't have to go hungry or cold anymore. You have to be good and not cause trouble, okay?"
Little Stone suddenly said very seriously, "Otherwise, if my sister is unhappy and kicks us out, we'll never be able to sleep in such a comfortable bed again."
"Uh-huh."
Upon hearing this, the mentally challenged older brother immediately shrank back in fear and repeatedly promised, "Hengheng will be good and will never do anything bad!"
"Yes, brother, although you are not Little Stone's biological brother, but someone I picked up, you are my only family now. I want to stay with you forever, so you must be good!"
Little Stone reached out and touched his mentally challenged brother's head before slowly falling asleep.
The older brother, who was mentally challenged, stared at the little stone for a while, then took his hand and whispered, "Brother loves little brother too. Be good and don't leave your little brother..."
Yun Zhourong was unaware of the situation here; at this moment, she was telling Ji Minxiu about Zhou Yueshan's situation.
"Yes, keeping pets can indeed help people with autism. If possible, let her keep that cat."
After Ji Minxiu finished speaking, he took out books related to autism and said, "There are many types of autism, but a large part of it is due to intestinal problems. So we need to test her gut microbiota first, and then investigate further depending on the situation."
"Then what should I do?" Yun Zhourong asked.
"Ahem, um... I need you to get some of her... feces."
Yun Zhourong: "..."
The next day, when Yun Zhourong woke up, she heard Zhao's voice, "Oh dear, why are you up so early? You don't need to worry about the firewood. You're still injured. Go and get some more sleep."
She hurried outside and saw a little boy whose face was still bruised and purple, dressed in thin clothes, holding an axe in his hand.
However, he was covered in sweat, and there was a lot of chopped firewood piled on the ground, which showed that he had been chopping it for a long time.
Little Stone wiped his sweat and said nonchalantly, "I've always been in good health, doing this little thing is nothing."
"Who said that? Your health is already terrible, you know that!"
Upon hearing this, Yun Zhourong walked forward with a cold face and draped her down jacket over him. "If you don't want your brother to be homeless and have no one to care for him, then you should behave and take care of your health first."
Seeing her serious expression, Little Stone became a little scared and asked nervously, "Am I...am I really that badly injured?"
"Now you're scared?"
To make Xiao Shitou understand the seriousness of the matter, Yun Zhourong said with a stern face, "If you behave well, you'll be fine. But if you continue to abuse your body like this, you won't live long."
"I...I will be good!"
Little Stone was still young, and when he heard that there was a real danger to his life, he immediately became obedient.
