Finally, he poured two packets of pickled mustard greens into a bowl and threw the packaging bags into the stove to destroy the evidence. After everything was cleaned up, Xu Jianguo silently said in his heart, "Mission accomplished!" and then went back to the house to see the little girl.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw the little girl lying on the kang sitting up by herself.
The two little hands rubbed their eyes, looked at Xu Jianguo standing in front of them, and asked: "Haha, who are you? My master is calling you?"
Listening to the little girl's unclear and baby voice, Xu Jianguo smiled like an old father.
In his previous life, Xu Jianguo was not married and had no children. He only adopted two orphans. Now he suddenly has a younger sister, and she is such a cute baby, and his fatherly love bursts out instantly.
"Mingzhen, you're awake. How do you feel? Are you feeling unwell?"
"Haha (brother), how do you know my name?" the little girl asked.
"Because your master told me!" Xu Jianguo said.
"Then where is my Shihu (Master)?"
"You fell ill with a fever the night before last, so your master brought you down the mountain to ask me for help. However, because he had something important to do, he went to a very far place. You were too young and sick, so your master sent you to me, and I will take care of you from now on." Xu Jianguo said gently.
When the little girl heard Xu Jianguo say that her master was not there, she immediately curled her lips and tears as big as beans fell down.
Xu Jianguo panicked when he saw this. He quickly sat down on the edge of the kang, then held the little girl in his arms and said, "Mingzhen, be good, don't cry."
He glanced at the jade token on the kang and reached out to take it.
"Mingzhen, look, this is the jade token your master left for you. He asked me to tell you that if you miss him, just look at this jade token. He will come back to see you after he finishes his business. You can trust your big brother completely. I will treat you like my own sister. Besides, you are very pitiful. My parents are gone, and you are the only one left. If you don't like your brother, you will be very sad." Xu Jianguo said pitifully.
The little girl listened to Xu Jianguo's words, looked at the jade token in her hand, hesitated for a moment, and then reached out her hand to touch Xu Jianguo's face.
"Haha, Mingzhen is so good, Mingzhen is not crying. Haha, don't be sad."
"Okay, brother won't be sad anymore. Mingzhen, are you willing to be my sister? Brother will definitely treat you well." Xu Jianguo tried to ask.
"Haha, as long as you like me, I will be your sister."
"Haha, brother really likes Mingzhen and will definitely treat her well. Brother will give you some candy, okay?"
As Xu Jianguo spoke, he reached into his trouser pocket, took out a piece of vitamin gummy from the space, and placed it in the little girl's palm.
"Wow, what beautiful candy! Thank you, Haha!" The little girl looked at the pink candy in her hand and was so happy that her eyes turned into crescents. She asked, "Haha, can I have some?"
"Of course you can. As long as you behave well in the future, I will buy you lots of candies." Xu Jianguo looked at the little girl's innocent smile and was instantly infected. He said with a smile.
"Haha, Ming is really good." As he said that, he couldn't wait to put the candy into his mouth, then squinted his big eyes, as if he was enjoying the wonderful taste of the candy.
Xu Jianguo breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his head, and thought to himself, "Finally, I've coaxed this girl into submission."
