But Liu Nian didn't want to ask anymore. She nestled against Su Xu's chest, gazing at his face. Years would etch their marks on their faces, and they would slowly grow old. Liu Nian suddenly felt a strong anticipation for the day when they would grow old together, their hair white, surrounded by children and grandchildren.
"How am I supposed to read if you keep looking at me like that?" Su Xu closed the book, placed it on the bedside table, and said.
"Let's go into the space and have a go!"
After saying that, Su Xu pulled Liu Nian into the space.
At the same time, the door was pushed open, and Erbao, holding a small piece of paper, looked at the empty room, scratched his head, and realized that no one was there.
My parents always seem to disappear suddenly and then reappear just as suddenly; who knows what they've been up to?
He then placed the note on their bedside table, thinking they would see it when they got home, before returning to his own room.
The next morning, before dawn, Erbao carried his little schoolbag, which was full of things he had saved up by being frugal.
Before anyone in the house got up, Erbao pushed open the door and tiptoed out.
He's a third-grade student now, and he knows how to take the bus and how to get to Jiangjuntun.
He carried his little schoolbag, wore a little hat, tilted his head back, boarded the bus, and greeted the bus driver politely.
The driver looked at the cute child and asked, "Little friend, you go to school early!"
Erbao shook his head and said, "No, I'm skipping class today to see my fiancée."
This amused the driver, who exclaimed, "You have a fiancée!"
"Sit tight, little one, I'm taking you to find your fiancée!" The driver smiled and stepped on the gas, and the bus slowly glided along the road.
When they arrived at Jiangjuntun, it was just time for school. Qianqian was walking to school with her mother when she suddenly saw someone standing at the school gate.
Wearing a navy uniform and carrying a small backpack, he looked exceptionally smart.
Qianqian pointed at him with surprise and said, "Mommy, it's the second baby!"
Qianqian's mother looked around and quickly went over, somewhat surprised and delighted. "Erbao, what brings you here? Where are your parents?"
Erbao said as he took off his schoolbag, "I came by myself."
"I've run away from home!"
"I've come to bring money to Sister Qianqian!"
As he spoke, he pulled a piggy bank out of his backpack, shoved it into Qianqian's hand, and said, "It's all yours. A man can't keep secret stashes of money!"
Qianqian's mother was amused by her second child's serious, adult-like demeanor. "Second child, how can you be so adorable?"
"You can't run away from home, your family will worry." Qianqian's mother thought she had to tell Liu Nian quickly.
Erbao walked up to Qianqian, blushed, and peeked at her, saying, "Don't worry, I've already left a note at home saying I'm running away to find Sister Qianqian."
Meanwhile, the Su family was in complete chaos.
"Where's Erbao?"
Liu Nian woke up in the space in the morning. It was all because Su Xu had been making a fuss for too long last night. In the end, she was so tired that she fell asleep in the space.
After waking up, the two of them quickly washed up and left the space, then called the children to get up.
Da Bao and San Bao have already dressed themselves obediently, but Er Bao is nowhere to be found in the whole family.
Liu Nian ran downstairs again to check her sister-in-law's house and her parents' house, but they weren't there.
Where did you go? You haven't been home since this morning?
"Where did this child go?" Liu Nian asked anxiously, having forgotten that the space could provide a live stream perspective of the children, allowing her to see where Erbao was and what he was doing.
Da Bao suddenly said something that stunned Liu Nian: "Er Bao went to find Sister Qianqian."
Several people asked together, "How did you know?"
Da Bao walked into Er Bao's room, pointed to the cabinet and said, "The piggy bank here is gone. Er Bao must have taken it."
Then he added, "He must have gone to give money to Sister Qianqian."
Liu Nian and Su Xu asked in surprise, "How did you know?"
Da Bao sighed helplessly, feeling that his parents weren't very smart.
At the dinner table, his father boasted that men shouldn't have secret stashes of money. Erbao looked like he had learned something new. The next day, Erbao disappeared with his piggy bank. It was obvious that Erbao had followed his father's example and gone to give his future wife some secret stash of money.
Can't they reason out such a simple logic?
