Zhang Meng watched from outside the crowd for a while, then happily left holding little Zhang Tao's hand.
Zhang Meng also learned some of the subsequent events from the third grandmother who came to chat at home. She said that on the day of the separation, Zhang Dahu and his family of three took their simple and pitiful quilts and clothes and left the old house, and lived in an uninhabited dilapidated house temporarily arranged for them by Village Chief Zhang.
As for Old Mrs. Zhang, her illness did not get better with the departure of her eldest son and his family of three, but instead got worse.
In this way, many villagers became more convinced that Xiaobao was not their nemesis at all.
After hearing about these follow-up events, Zhang Meng simply smiled and told Grandma Zhang that if Zhang Dahu and his family of three really had any difficulties, they would help them if they could.
It has been three days since Gu Mingtai left. During this time, every night, Zhang Meng found herself suddenly missing this man. She couldn't help but worry about whether this man was injured, had eaten, or was cold while fighting the flood.
Just like she was at this moment, her eyes unconsciously glanced in the direction where he was.
At this moment, the sound of something heavy falling suddenly rang in her ears, and Zhang Meng was so scared that she almost screamed.
Zhang Meng turned around and saw a small yellow croaker shining in front of her.
"Hmph, hmph, well, this is given to you by me. Please accept it, but you can't be angry with me anymore."
Huang Qingtian, who was standing next to the little yellow croaker, spoke to Zhang Meng with a proud look on his face.
Zhang Meng took a look at the guy and accepted the small yellow croaker without hesitation. In fact, she had stopped being angry with the guy as early as when he helped her teach Old Lady Zhang a lesson. It was just that she was worried about Gu Mingtai's safety in the past few days and had not spoken to the guy much.
"Okay, for the sake of this little yellow croaker, I won't be angry with you anymore." Zhang Meng said generously.
Huang Qingtian grabbed his head and chirped a few words in weasel language, meaning that this human was easy to coax, and could be coaxed with just a small, vulgar yellow croaker.
Unfortunately, Zhang Meng didn't understand animal language. If she knew what this guy said, she would have thrown the small yellow croaker on its head without hesitation.
At the same time, Gu Mingtai, who was fighting floods thousands of miles away, was in a state of disgrace.
In the wind and rain, he looked at the surging flood with a cold face, silent.
"Battalion Commander, the division commander wants you to go to his tent. He said there's something important to discuss." At this time, a young soldier in a raincoat walked up to him with rain on his face and reported loudly.
Gu Mingtai turned around and strode towards a large dark green military tent set up by the river.
"Report, Commander, Third Battalion Commander Gu Mingtai reports in."
"Come in." A hoarse response came from inside the tent.
Gu Mingtai immediately lifted the tent curtain and walked in.
"Xiao Gu, you're here, come and sit down." There were two men in military uniforms sitting next to Commander Qiu. Gu Mingtai recognized their identities at a glance. They were the commanders of the first and second battalions respectively.
"This is little Gu. He's so young, but surprisingly so capable. Not bad, the young are really formidable." The battalion commander of the first battalion praised Gu Mingtai with a flattering smile on his face.
"Old Pan, you can't be so mean. Don't think that if you praise Xiao Gu like this, he will be generous and give you more things. I don't agree to this."
The person who spoke at this time was the commander of the Second Battalion. Commander Pan's face flushed slightly, and after a long pause he finally said, "Gao, stop trying to put the blame on me. Believe it or not, I'll beat you up."
"Come on, come on, let's see who beats whom." Commander Gao looked at Commander Pan with a provocative expression.
Gu Mingtai, who was standing in front of them, looked at them calmly, as if the two people standing in front of him who were about to fight were ordinary people.
The Third Battalion's Division Commander, Commander Qiu, was utterly embarrassed. "You two are the commanders of a division after all, yet you actually did something so shameful. It's so shameful!"
Commander Qiu immediately turned around and took Gu Mingtai's arm and walked inside. "Little Gu, don't pay attention to those two shameless people. Come with me. I have something to ask you."
The two commanders, who were already ready to fight, saw Gu Mingtai being dragged away, and they both calmed down and chased after him.
"Xiao Gu, please sit down." "Xiao Gu, please have some tea." The two people who caught up with him offered their courtesy to Gu Mingtai one after another.
Gu Mingtai calmly declined their warm hospitality. "Three commanders, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. There's no need to be polite to me."
The three division commanders exchanged awkward glances. They pushed each other for a while, and finally, Division Commander Qiu spoke up. "Xiao Gu, it was you who killed that weird thing we encountered yesterday. Otherwise, we would have lost a lot of people in the Third Battalion."
Gu Mingtai said calmly, "This is what I should do."
Thinking of the strange things that happened yesterday, the three commanders are still a little nervous.
At that time, they were fighting against the flood in the river. Suddenly, a large group of desperate crows flew in from somewhere and rushed towards them. Several soldiers had their eyes and faces pecked by those crazy crows. Just when everyone was at a loss, the little Gu next to them suddenly took out a stack of talismans from his pocket and threw them over, and those damn crows fled.
Commander Qiu smiled and replied, "Yes, you are right, but I called you here today to ask if you still have the talisman paper you used yesterday?"
"Yes, yes, is there anything else?" "Yes, is there anything else?" Commander Pan and Commander Gao asked one after another.
