Ning Xiyue's consolation was ineffective, so she had to find another way. She took out a piece of fruit candy from her pocket and put it in Goudan's hand. She squatted down to be on Goudan's level and half-hugged him.
With one hand, she patted his back to help him calm down, and with the other hand, she touched his head soothingly. Without saying anything, she let him vent his sadness.
Goudan slowly stopped crying, but he had been crying for too long and couldn't stop for a moment, sobbing softly.
"Okay, our puppy is the cleanest and most beautiful child in the team. Let's stop crying and wipe away our snot and tears. He will be a clean and beautiful child again."
Ning Xiyue took out a piece of paper and wiped his snot and tears. After they were wiped clean, Goudan's sobbing stopped.
At this time, Goudan was holding Ning Xiyue with one hand, pointing at his right thigh with one hand, and complaining: "Sister Xiyue, a bad guy caught me and she pinched my leg."
"The bad guys have been caught. They can't hurt our little puppy anymore." Ning Xiyue took out a jar of blood-clearing ointment and pulled up Little Dog's pants: "Come, sister will help you take a look."
Goudan covered his belt shyly. At the age of four, he already knew how to feel embarrassed. His face turned red and he shook his head.
"Sister, there are too many people here."
Ning Xiyue smiled, which was really cute. She respected Goudan's wishes, called her second brother and took him to a side place away from people to apply the medicine.
"If there's any other place that hurts, Goudan needs to tell his brothers and sisters."
"It hurts here." Goudan pointed to the left side of his waist.
After applying the medicine, I helped him check if there were any other injuries on his body.
Fortunately, there are only two bruises on my body, one on my thigh from being pinched, and the other on my waist from being hit. Both are not very serious and the pain will go away in a day or two after applying some medicine.
When Ning Xiyue saw that Goudan had finished his task, she stood up to coax the other children.
The other children had no family members around them and were still crying. The male comrades who were there to coax the children were in a panic and at a loss. They tried their best but failed to coax the children. They felt helpless.
Ning Xiyue was not very good at coaxing children, but she could not resist the pitiful looks of several comrades at the two siblings, hoping for help. She could not stand such looks from others the most, so she helped to coax them, but with little success.
She has a little tail behind her - Xiaogoudan. He holds the corner of Ning Xiyue's clothes with one of his little hands, and follows her wherever she goes, never leaving her side.
Even Ning Qingyuan couldn't take him away, as he only recognized Ning Xiyue.
Ning Xiyue followed his lead. She knew that this was a sign of extreme insecurity in children. They only trusted people they were familiar with. It was a normal reaction after going through such a great ordeal.
However, there is a good news that Goudan actually helped her to coax the child, and unexpectedly it worked, and the child slowly stopped crying.
Then there was another little tail behind her - the little girl she met on the train, walking towards the next one with two little tails.
In the end, there were four little tails behind Ning Xiyue.
The other children gradually stopped crying because they were tired. The comrades from the armed forces department went to buy some fruit candies and gave one to each child. Only then did all the children stop crying.
All the adults breathed a sigh of relief.
Ning Xiyue was so hot that she unbuttoned her coat. Phew, she felt as tired as if she had just fought a battle.
After getting the candy, Goudan tugged at Ning Xiyue's clothes and handed the newly acquired candy to her. With his other hand, he shook the candy Ning Xiyue had given him, revealing a long-lost smile:
"Sister Xiyue, we'll each have one."
"Okay, thank you, Goudan."
Ning Xiyue took the candy and clinked it with Goudan's candy, just like she did before in the team's clinic.
Goudan laughed even more happily.
Ning Xiyue saw that it was getting late and Comrade Li had just returned from his team, so she walked over and asked, "Comrade Li, is there anything else? If not, my brother and I will be going back soon. We need to take the child home as soon as possible so that his family won't worry."
"Well, I'll arrange for someone to take you back to town, where it's safer."
Ning Xiyue has a special identity, and Comrade Li is worried. If he encounters something like today again, he must take it seriously and not allow any accidents to happen, otherwise he will not be able to report to his superiors.
"Thank you, Comrade Li."
Ning Xiyue pulled Goudan to the front again, looked at Comrade Li and continued:
"Comrade Li, there's this child. He's from our team. Could you please call our team and tell them not to worry? I'll take him back."
"Come with me." Comrade Li glanced at the timid Goudan and then nodded.
Ning Xiyue greeted her second brother and asked him to wait for a moment, then took Goudan and followed Comrade Li to the office where there was a phone. She gave the team's phone number and Comrade Li helped to dial it.
After waiting for a while, the captain's energetic voice came from the phone: "Hello, who is this?"
"Hello, County Armed Forces Department. A child named Goudan from your team has been found and will be brought back by Comrade Ning from your team."
After saying this, Comrade Li handed the phone to Ning Xiyue without waiting for the captain's response.
"Captain, it's me, Xiyue. I'll cut to the chase. Tell Uncle Anguo that Goudan is safe in the county armed forces. I'll bring him back right away."
"Xiyue, is it true? We really found Goudan." The captain's excited voice came from inside.
"Found it, Goudan, come and call him." Ning Xiyue put the phone to Goudan's ear.
"Goudan, is that you?" the captain called cautiously, with anticipation in his voice.
When Xiao Gou Dan heard the familiar voice, he shouted with red eyes: "Uncle Youwei, I am Gou Dan."
"Oh, okay, okay, just follow your sister Xiyue home. I'll go tell your parents."
