Chapter 94
Jiaojiao was so frightened that her hand trembled, and the half-bitten tomato in her hand fell to the ground with a plop.
"Jiaojiao, your tomato fell to the ground." Cao Yuhao exclaimed.
Jiaojiao, who had come back to her senses, blinked a little slowly, lowered her head to look at the tomatoes that had fallen on the ground, and bent down to pick them up.
Cao Yuhao quickly pulled him aside, frowning and saying, "It's dirty because it fell on the ground. We can't keep it."
As he said that, he took out another tomato from his pocket and stuffed it into Jiaojiao's hand: "Here, eat this, this one is clean."
Jiaojiao took the tomato in her hand and said, "Thank you, Brother Yuhao."
Cao Yuhao raised his chin and waved his hand proudly: "No need to thank me, just eat, I have more."
Jiaojiao, who had calmed down a little, suddenly remembered something. She pulled Cao Yuhao, turned around, and ran to hide beside Li Li who was weighing vegetables.
Frightened, Jiaojiao hid in front of her aunt, shielding herself completely with her aunt's legs, and her little hands nervously grabbed her aunt's pants.
"What's wrong?" Li Li, who was weighing the dishes, asked with her head down.
"Auntie, there are bad guys!" Jiaojiao said fearfully, looking up.
"Bad guy?" Li Li frowned slightly and turned her head to look in the direction where Jiaojiao had just run.
In the bustling vegetable market, pedestrians come and go, the shouts of vendors, the conversations of pedestrians, the roar of stoves and the aroma of food paint a noisy yet life-filled picture, and in this picture there is a person who looks particularly strange.
In the scorching summer heat, the man was wearing a gray jacket, his hair was greasy and tangled, his steps were stiff, his whole body was tense, his bloodshot eyes were staring straight ahead, and one hand was hidden under his jacket, as if he was taking something, or hiding something.
"Brother Jiaojiao, who is the bad guy?" Cao Yuhao, who was hiding behind Jiaojiao, looked out curiously.
Seeing this, Jiaojiao quickly stood on tiptoe and pulled his head back: "Brother Yuhao, bad guys are very bad, don't let him see you."
"It's okay, don't be afraid." Cao Yuhao looked out while comforting Jiaojiao: "I'm very powerful. I can beat the bad guys away with one punch. Brother Jiaojiao, you just hide behind me when the time comes."
"Really?" Jiaojiao looked at Cao Yuhao in surprise.
"Of course it's true." Cao Yuhao's eyes widened, and he put his hands on his waist and said, "I've been learning Taekwondo for half a year. It's the kind of martial arts that specializes in fighting."
As he spoke, he even gestured twice to Jiaojiao, and then said proudly, "Haha, haha, that's it, isn't it amazing?"
Jiaojiao, who didn't know what was going on, clapped her hands and said with sparkling eyes, "Amazing."
Cao Yuhao felt relieved after getting the compliments he wanted. He smiled broadly and waved his hand proudly: "So if you meet bad guys in the future, hide behind me. I will protect you."
"Okay, Brother Yuhao, can my dad also hide behind you?" Jiaojiao asked expectantly.
Cao Yuhao nodded: "Of course no problem."
When what the two said made the netizens in the live broadcast room laugh, the strange person who was stared at by Li Li looked around and then fixed his eyes on a petite woman walking towards him.
The bun shop next door opened the steamer, and the rising mist blocked people's eyes. The aroma of wheat spread across the entire vegetable street at a very fast speed. The sound of car horns came from the street in the distance. Everything was as usual, with peace and tranquility mixed in with the busy and noisy atmosphere.
The petite woman walked forward while carefully comparing the freshness of the dishes served by the surrounding vendors.
As she was walking, she suddenly felt a tearing pain on her scalp. She looked up following the force pulling her scalp and saw a kitchen knife flashing with a cold light raised high.
The man grabbed the woman's hair with one hand and raised the kitchen knife with the other to chop her down.
The people around who saw this scene subconsciously screamed and dodged. Just as the knife in the man's hand was about to fall on the female goddess, a flying kick with strong wind landed quickly, accurately and fiercely on the side of the man's neck.
The man was immediately knocked to the ground by the sudden flying kick. Before the dizzy man could come to his senses, Li Li kicked him hard on the wrist holding the kitchen knife.
The severe pain forced his hands to lose their grip, and the sharp kitchen knife fell from his hand with a clang. Li Li kicked the knife aside, squatted down and handcuffed the man.
"Police, don't panic!" After torturing the man, Li Li took out her police ID and shouted to the panicked crowd around her, then pulled the man up from the ground.
When Li Li was leaving with the vegetables and the man, she turned around and told Jiaojiao to go back quickly.
Seeing Aunt Li Li taking people away, Jiaojiao, who was standing there holding Cao Yuhao's hand, blinked in confusion.
The bad guy Jiaojiao saw before didn’t look like this?
This bad guy is tall, while the bad guy Jiaojiao saw before was short!
Li Yubai, who had disregarded the rules and strode out from his hiding when he saw Jiaojiao was frightened, frowned slightly when he found Jiaojiao standing there in a daze.
He walked up to Jiaojiao and squatted down, saying, "Are you scared?"
"No." Jiaojiao's eyes lit up when she saw her father, and she hurriedly handed the tomato in her little paw forward: "Daddy, eat it."
Li Yubai glanced at the small tomato in his little paw, met his bright eyes, and somehow reached out to take the tomato from his hand.
Seeing her father take the tomatoes, Jiaojiao arched her eyebrows and squeezed into her father's arms, holding up the payment code hanging around her neck and said, "Dad, Jiaojiao has sold all the vegetables!"
"Well, that's great." Li Yubai praised lightly, then stood up holding Jiaojiao.
Jiaojiao pursed her lips happily after being praised. Then she lowered her head and took out the only five dollars and fifty cents she had received from her pocket in front of her belly and stuffed it into her father's hand: "Money, buy Dad something delicious."
Li Yubai looked down at the cash in his hand and inexplicably had the illusion that he was being raised by a child.
He smiled dumbly, put the cash in his hand away without any hesitation, glanced at Jiaojiao in his arms and said, "I'll make you something delicious tonight."
Jiaojiao nodded happily: "Okay, the food Dad cooks is the most delicious."
Li Yubai raised his eyebrows noncommittally and walked back with Jiaojiao in his arms.
Jiaojiao, who was a little scared at first, was no longer afraid after seeing her father. She lay down in her father's arms with peace of mind.
Cao Yuhao, who was forgotten by the two, reached out and pulled the corner of Jiaojiao's father's clothes, and followed the two of them back with his short legs, with no intention of going back to sell all his vegetables.
Xiao Tiancheng, who saw this scene from a distance, had a heart attack.
It was not until then that the netizens in the live broadcast room came back to their senses after witnessing a thrilling incident of catching robbers in the vegetable market.
"In the morning it was a human trafficker, in the afternoon it was a knife-wielding gangster. My Jiaozi is so good at identifying bad guys! "
"Jiaozi's intuition is so accurate!"
"There's a saying that some children with keen senses can distinguish between good and bad people!"
"Yes, I saw an experiment conducted abroad. They took five or six children with very keen senses, asked some bad people and good people who had committed crimes to stand behind a curtain, and then asked the children if they would like the person behind the curtain to hug them."
"In the end, the children who refused to be held were all bad people who had committed crimes!"
"Oh my god, they say children are the most intelligent. I didn't believe it before, but now I think I do!"
"No way! If it's really like what you said, then when we catch a suspect we can just let the child testify. Is there still a need for an investigation?"
"Then how do you explain Jiaozi accurately pointing out the bad guys twice?"
'This... is truly outrageous!'
"Once is a lucky coincidence, but twice is a bit outrageous!"
"I can only say that some children are really sensitive to malice!"
"My Jiaozi is awesome! He caught two bad guys, which means he indirectly saved two people!"
"You all focus on the bad guys, but my focus is on the scene where Jiaojiao gives the money to her father!"
"My son sells vegetables to earn money to support his father!"
"I'm so jealous! What a rare treasure this is!"
"I heard Jiaozi is from an orphanage. What are the requirements for adopting such a cute little baby?"
"Can I really adopt one? My third aunt and uncle have been married for many years and have no children. They've always wanted to adopt one. I think Jiaozi would be great, and he'd feel sorry for his father. I'll go find out some information right away!"
"I've got the sacks ready, just waiting for them to fall asleep at night. Now you're telling me you can adopt the baby?"
'Oh oh oh, adopt, adopt, my baby, auntie is coming right away!'
Time passed slowly with the sun. Around four o'clock in the afternoon, except for Cao Yuhao, all the vegetables of the other kids were sold out.
Jiaojiao was the first to sell out, followed closely by Lou Yaoyao.
As soon as the vegetables were sold, Lou Yaoyao ran to help Shi Huairou sell them.
On the other side, Mu Yichen, who had sold all the vegetables behind Lou Yaoyao not long after, ran to Jiaojiao's stall to help Jiaojiao's brother sell his vegetables.
Unexpectedly, when he arrived, he found that Jiaojiao's brother had already sold out and left. Mu Yicheng turned around and walked back, feeling a little disappointed.
Shi Huairou didn't have many vegetables left to begin with, and with Lou Yaoyao's help, she sold all the vegetables in no time.
The two little sisters skipped back hand in hand. When they passed a bun shop, Lou Yaoyao suddenly stopped.
After thinking for a while, she took out some cash from her pocket, ran over and bought three red bean paste buns, and handed one to Shi Huairou: "Here."
"Thank you, Sister Yaoyao." Shi Huairou, who was already extremely hungry, took the bun and started eating.
"You're welcome!" Lou Yaoyao waved her hand generously, took a bite of the bun in her hand, and left the remaining one untouched, ready to take it back to her brother Jiaojiao.
After walking back for about fifteen minutes, Lou Yaoyao and Shi Huairou returned to the bus.
As soon as they got back on the bus, Lou Yaoyao ran forward and tiptoed to hand the bun in her hand to Jiaojiao: "Jiaojiao, this is for you, my brother."
Jiaojiao, sitting in her father's arms, blinked, took it with her hand, and said, "Thank you, Sister Yaoyao."
Lou Yaoyao smiled happily: "You're welcome."
After saying that, he ran to Shi Yue.
Jiaojiao passed the bun in her hand to her father's mouth: "Daddy, have a bite."
Li Yubai lowered his eyes and looked at him, feeling very curious. What on earth prompted this little guy to leave his food for himself again and again?
Seeing her father looking at her without moving, Jiaojiao doubtfully passed the bun to his mouth again: "Daddy, take a bite!"
Li Yubai, who was thinking about something, lowered his head and took a bite. With this bite, two-thirds of the bun was gone.
Looking at the small amount of buns left, Jiaojiao was not unhappy at all. Instead, she happily shook her short legs and lowered her head to eat the remaining buns.
Seeing this, Li Yubai's eyes flashed with surprise. He reached out and poked Jiaojiao's fair and tender face: "Not angry?"
"Why? Are you angry?" Jiaojiao looked up at her father in confusion.
Li Yubai lowered his eyes and glanced at the bun on his little paw.
Jiaojiao understood the look in her father's eyes and said, "Give it to Dad. Don't be angry. Be happy."
As he spoke, he curved his eyebrows and gave Li Yubai a cheerful smile.
Li Yubai raised his hand and rubbed Jiaojiao's furry head.
This child is really good at coaxing. I don’t know why he was abandoned. I will take him to the hospital for a check-up someday. If he really has any disease, I will cure him as soon as possible!
