"What's wrong, Mother?" Cai Xiaolian asked as she saw Gu Hui rush out and bring her two daughters back in.
"Take the child and look around too, Renzi has been lost by his father!" After Grandma Gu finished speaking, she put down her things and began to search for the child in every corner of the house.
Gu En was only six months old. Despite being premature, he was much healthier than other babies.
She could crawl by herself when she was five months old, and when she cried, the sound was much louder than other babies.
In Uncle Gu's words, his poop piles up higher than other kids', mainly because theirs is runny while his is dry, just like a one-year-old's.
The entire Gu family joined the search for Renren.
A short while later, Gu Hui returned, bringing Zhang Shi with her. Sure enough, Zhang Shi hadn't taken Renren with her when she went out. In other words, Renren was being held by Gu's uncle and then lost. It was unclear whether she was taken away by someone or crawled away on her own.
"Oh dear! My Renzi! My Renzi! You're going to die! You caused Huihui to crawl away before. She was a girl, and I won't say anything about you, but Renzi is a boy!" Zhang patted Uncle Gu.
"Don't cry, daughter-in-law! Huihui can crawl away, so maybe Renren can crawl away on her own too. She can't crawl far, surely we adults can catch up with her?" Uncle Gu comforted her.
"Stop talking, hurry up and look! If it's not inside, search outside! Second son, you and your family go back inside and check. The eldest often carries Renzi over to your place, maybe the child remembers the way." Grandma Gu and Grandpa Gu searched the house but couldn't find it, so they came out and said.
"Alright, Mother!" Gu Shouxin led his wife and children back home.
As Gu Xin passed by the old house, she noticed a thin wire stuck in the crack of the door. Yes, it was a thin wire.
"Father, Mother, Sister, look at the door!" Gu Xin said as she ran over.
Upon seeing this, the three time travelers realized that someone must be trying to open their door!
I couldn't help but feel a little alarmed. Fortunately, they usually don't plant anything in this field when they're not home, and even if they do, it's just some flowers they need.
"Ah! Renren!" Gu Xin took off the thin wire, looked back, and saw Gu Ren standing in the pile of dry wood under the big tree.
"I'll go talk to Grandpa and Grandma. Mom and Dad, please check on his condition. If there's a problem, Xin Xin can feed him a jade bead." After saying that, Gu Nian went to the old house.
Gu Shouxin picked up Gu Ren, his brows furrowing. This child is only a little over six months old, could it be that he's trying to break into the house?
Cai Xiaolian loved children. Seeing the scratches on Gu En's face and chubby little hands, she couldn't help but feel a pang of heartache. She touched his head; it wasn't hot, and his body was quite warm. He was probably asleep with his eyes closed. But what was with this kid sleeping in the woodpile of their old house?
Gu Xin had already taken the jade beads, pried open Gu Ren's mouth, and fed them to him.
While asleep, Gu Ren smacked her lips in Gu Shouxin's arms, as if she had eaten something delicious.
"Renzi! My son! Renzi! My son!" Zhang rushed over, her face covered in tears and sweat.
She snatched the child from Gu Shouxin's arms in one swift motion, causing Gu Ren's brows to furrow.
"Renzi! My son! Your father, that heartless bastard, threw you into this woodpile. He's so cruel!" Zhang Shi hugged Gu Ren and wailed.
