When Xu Jianguo returned home, he saw the little girl having fun in the house and he also smiled happily.
He opened the door and walked in, saying, "Funiu, brother is back."
"Haha, this toy is so fun, it moves by itself."
"Haha, do you like it?"
"I like it, I like it very much."
"Funiu, promise your brother that you can only play with this toy at home and not take it out. Otherwise, other kids will grab it and you won't be able to play with it."
Funiu obviously didn't understand why other children would snatch her toys, but Xu Jianguo was worried that this toy was obviously not in line with the current era. If it was taken out and seen by others, there would probably be trouble.
But even so, Funiu nodded obediently and said, "Okay, haha, I understand."
"So good!" Xu Jianguo pinched the little guy's cute face and said.
"Haha, I want to pee." said Funiu.
Xu Jianguo carried Funiu to the yard to help her pee. After cleaning her up, he put her on the kang and wiped her hands with a towel. Then he took out a piece of fruit candy from his pocket and said, "Funiu, you've been very good today. I'll give you a candy as a reward."
"Wow, thank you haha." The little girl couldn't wait to put the candy into her mouth, and her eyes unconsciously narrowed into crescent shapes.
"You're welcome. After eating the candy, remember to drink some water and then go back to sleep. I'll go cook. When you wake up, there will be something delicious, okay?"
"Okay!" The little guy's eyes lit up when he heard there was something delicious.
Xu Jianguo spread out the bedding, picked up the toy car on the ground, cleaned it, and placed it on the kang table. Then he took out a bowl of well water from the space and said, "Brother is going to cook. Call me if you need anything."
"Okay, quack."
Xu Jianguo smiled and went to the main room to start preparing dinner.
Tonight's dinner is very rich, with eel and eggplant, tomato and egg drop soup, and the staple food is the leftover white flour buns.
After waking up Funiu and bringing the food into the house, the two of them began to eat with big mouthfuls.
I don’t know if it’s because of drinking the space well water, but Xu Jianguo feels that his and Funiu’s appetite has increased significantly.
Two and a half big steamed buns, plus a dish and a soup, there was not a single drop left in the end.
The little girl took a small piece of steamed bun and wiped the large bowl of eel and eggplant clean, which made Xu Jianguo laugh. After all, Funiu's behavior was the greatest respect for the chef.
After dinner, Xu Jianguo made himself a pot of tea as usual, using the tea bags in the space.
The little girl was playing with her favorite toy car on the kang, and from time to time she looked up and said, "Haha, I'm so full, hahaha!"
Xu Jianguo looked at the silly-smiling Funiu and shook his head helplessly.
The two chatted idly, and although they were talking at cross purposes most of the time, they were still very happy.
At around 6 o'clock in the evening, the sky was getting dark and there was a commotion outside Xu Jianguo's yard.
When he walked out of the house, he saw a large group of people walking towards his home. Some of them were holding flashlights and torches, and some were carrying guns.
Due to the gene enhancement drug, Xu Jianguo could clearly see that the leader was Li Erniu, the militia captain of the brigade, who was also a good friend of Xu Jianguo's parents when they were alive.
When the crowd approached, Xu Jianguo pushed open the gate and walked out, saying, "Uncle Erniu, what happened?"
"Hey, Jianguo, the three children of Widow Wang from the village head went into the mountains to collect local products this afternoon, and they haven't returned home yet. Widow Wang just ran to the village chief's house to ask for help. I was just about to take people into the mountains to look for them. I think something happened to these children!"
"Our village is surrounded by mountains on three sides. Uncle, are you sure they entered the mountains from here?"
"I'm not sure. The village chief just sent people to notify every household, and more than half of the villagers have gone up the mountain."
"Okay, uncle, then you should go quickly. The mountain road is difficult to walk on at night, so be careful!"
"Okay, Jianguo, lock the door when you go to bed at night. Your home is close to the mountains, so be careful!"
"Uncle, I understand, don't worry!"
Li Erniu nodded and led his men up the mountain.
Xu Jianguo returned to the house, drank tea and looked at Funiu. For some reason, he felt uneasy.
He hesitated for a moment, then picked up Funiu and said, "Funiu, there are a few children in the village who are lost in the mountains. Everyone is looking for them now, and I want to help. I will send you to the village head's aunt's house later, and I will pick you up when I come back, okay?"
Funiu thought for a moment and said, "Okay, haha, go ahead. I'll wait for you to come back and pick me up."
"Funiu is so good!" Xu Jianguo said and then kissed Funiu on the face.
Xu Jianguo took out a few candies from the space, put them into Funiu's Taoist robe, and told her to share them with the stone from the village chief's house.
Then he carried Funiu to the village chief's house.
When they arrived at the village chief's house, Li Mancang's wife was sitting on a stool watching a small stone play. When she saw Xu Jianguo come in, she stood up and said, "Jianguo, what's the matter?"
"Aunt, I heard from Uncle Erniu that Aunt Wang's children are missing. I want to go and help look for them. Could you please look after Funiu for me and pick her up when I get back?"
"Ah, you want to go into the mountains? Everyone else has gone far away, you can't go in the mountains alone!"
"Aunt, it's okay. I'll walk from the mountain behind my house. Uncle Erniu and the others just passed by. I can find them by following their footprints. If I can't find them, I'll just wait there. They have to go down the mountain that way anyway, so don't worry! Besides, I've been going into the mountains by myself since I was a child. I'm very familiar with the mountains. Nothing will happen to me!"
