Zhou Shixun frowned and looked at Mu Xiaowan in confusion: "Why don't you go back with us? What if something happens?"
Mu Xiaowan shook her head: "Nothing will happen. There are police officers at the foot of the mountain. I can just walk out and then take a bus to the town to go back to Beijing."
Zhou Shixun definitely disagreed, and he didn't have the patience to listen to Mu Xiaowan's words: "Let's go quickly, I'll wait for you at the foot of the mountain."
Seeing Zhou Shixun's hard tone and impatience, Mu Xiaowan thought about it and decided to explain to him. She pointed to the four big bear paws on the ground and said, "Your father would definitely not let me take this. I have to hand it in. But I picked this up."
She picked it up and she hasn't eaten it yet.
Zhou Shixun never thought that the reason why Mu Xiaowan refused to go with them was because of the four bear paws!
He frowned and thought for a while: "You can take it with you, just wrap it up so that no one can find it. And if you don't come with me, you can't take these four bear paws with you. Even if you can think of a way, it will be stinky in Beijing."
Mu Xiaowan thought it made sense and she used her coat to wrap the two bear paws tightly, making sure no air could get in.
Ignoring Shi Daman's resistance, he stripped off his coat and wrapped up the other two bear paws.
Zhou Shixun helped her carry a bag, but he couldn’t understand why Mu Xiaowan was so obsessed with bear paws.
Zhou Nanguang watched Zhou Shixun and Mu Xiaowan go down the mountain, with a man with his hands tied following behind them. He didn't ask any questions, let the two get in the car, and handed the tied Shi Daman over to the police.
Shi Daman saw Zhou Shixun got into the car with a blank expression on his face, completely forgetting about him, and called out, "Brother Zhou, Brother Zhou, I'm still here, don't forget me, remember to say something good for me..."
Before he could finish his words, he was taken away by the police.
Zhou Nanguang got into the car last. Mu Xiaowan sat in the passenger seat holding her bear paw, with two more bear paws placed next to her feet.
Zhou Shixun and Zhou Nanguang sat in the back row.
Secretary and driver Xiao Zhao was in charge of driving. After driving for a while, Xiao Zhao wrinkled his nose and asked, "Why is there such a strong smell?"
Mu Xiaowan was quite calm: "I've been in the mountains for several days. I might have gotten smelly. Sorry."
After hearing this, Xiao Zhao felt embarrassed. He also knew that Mu Xiaowan had stayed in the mountain for several days, and it was a blessing that he was not dead.
I just muttered to myself that the taste was really too strong.
All the way to Beijing, Mu Xiaowan insisted on going back to her own home first. Zhou Shixun knew what she meant and was anxious to go back and serve her.
Let the driver take her back first.
Zhou Nanguang didn't think much about it. After all, it was normal for a girl to go back to her own home. He also gently reminded Mu Xiaowan to be careful when she returned, and to remember to go to Zhou's house to find them if anything happened.
After sending Mu Xiaowan off, Zhou Nanguang asked Zhou Shixun, "Did Xiaowan take anything?"
Zhou Shixun didn't say a word. Apart from saying a few more words to Sheng An Ning, he was not a talkative person at other times.
Zhou Nanguang smiled and didn't ask any more questions. The strange smell in the car was mixed with the smell of blood, so he could guess what was going on.
It was just past lunch time when Zhou Shixun got home.
Sheng An Ning hadn't finished school yet, and the three little guys refused to take a nap and were causing trouble in the yard.
Seeing her father coming in, the little girl An An threw away the big stone and rushed over with her pigtails shaking: "Dad, Dad, hold An An."
Zhou Shixun's clothes were also dirty, but if he didn't hold the little girl in his arms, she would immediately cry. So he didn't care and just picked her up.
Zhou Zhou and Mo Mo also ran over, each holding one of their father's legs, and happily chirping, "Dad."
Zhong Wenqing heard the noise in the house and hurried out. Seeing Zhou Shixun come back safely, he was also very excited: "It's good that you're back. We were so worried. Where are Luancheng and Xiaowan?"
Zhou Nanguang simply replied: "Luancheng stayed to cooperate with the investigation. We just sent Xiaowan back."
Zhong Wenqing was completely relieved and went over to coax An An: "Can you let Dad take a bath? An An, go with grandma to make something delicious for Dad."
The little girl even got close to Zhou Shixun and sniffed him, then immediately wrinkled her nose and said, "Daddy stinks, I don't want to take a bath."
Zhong Wenqing smiled and took An An in his arms. He asked Zhou Shixun to take a shower and change clothes. He then called his aunt to cook a bowl of noodles for Zhou Shixun: "Do you have any leftover braised pork from lunch? Add some braised pork to the noodles and add two poached eggs."
While the aunt was cooking, Zhong Wenqing thought for a moment and told her, "Go buy another chicken this afternoon and roast it tonight."
After Zhou Shixun took a shower, changed his clothes, and had dinner with Zhou Nanguang, Zhong Wenqing finally had time to ask Xiao Wan and Luan Cheng what had happened.
After listening to Zhou Nanguang's words, Zhong Wenqing was shocked: "These people are so brave that they dare to do this."
Knowing that Xiao Wan had been locked up in the mountains for several days, he felt distressed again: "When Chaoyang comes back from get off work later, ask her to pick Xiao Wan up. We can have dinner together in the evening and have some rest."
She just didn't know that after Mu Xiaowan returned, he was still very energetic. After taking a shower, he peeled the bear paws in the house and disposed of the garbage.
Then he took out the recipes for palace dishes that he had copied before, found a dish called steamed bear paws, started thinking about the ingredients, and then started a fire in front of the door and steamed the bear paws.
The bear paws have been processed so that no one can tell what they are.
Instead, the whole yard was filled with the aroma of meat, causing the neighbors who stayed at home to wonder how Mu Xiaowan could be so rich and could always get meat to eat.
Mu Xiaowan felt a little regretful because she couldn't buy all the ingredients and she didn't know whether the food would taste good after being steamed. However, it smelled quite fragrant.
After waiting in front of the stove for more than three hours, the bear paws came out of the pot. I quickly found a large lunch box and filled it with one portion, and brought the rest into the house in the steamer.
He held the lunch box in a towel, locked the door, and planned to send it to Sheng An Ning.
I rode my bike all the way to school, luckily Sheng Anning's class hadn't finished yet.
I was waiting at the door with my lunch box, so excited.
Sheng An Ning was still worried about what had happened to Zhou Shixun and the others, and couldn't help but get distracted during class. When she looked up, she saw Mu Xiaowan looking through the glass in a sneaky manner.
He met her gaze and waved frantically.
Sheng An Ning suddenly laughed. Mu Xiaowan was back, so her father Suo must have come back as well. Finally, she didn't have to live in fear anymore.
As soon as the get out of class was over, Mu Xiaowan rushed in impatiently and pulled Sheng Anning out: "Hurry, hurry, I have something delicious for you."
Sheng An Ning was more concerned: "Have you seen my Zhou Shixun?"
