Song Mingzhou was delighted to receive a beating.
This time, neither Xu Guiying nor the others stopped them.
They deserved to be hit.
Where did this kid get so many toads?!
Chen Zhou was afraid of toads. She had seen toads squirting juice when she was a child, and she found it creepy. She didn't want to touch the clothes that Song Mingzhou had changed out of that night, and told Song Jianmin to either throw them away or wash them for his son.
Song Jianmin then educated Song Mingzhou.
"Do you realize your mistake?!"
Song Mingzhou sniffed, "Dad, I just want to take them home and give them a home."
Song Jianmin was so angry his head was about to split open.
"Give them a home? You'd be so grateful!!"
Despite his mischievous nature, Song Mingzhou has always been kind-hearted. He used to donate money and sell pots for his classmates, and now he wants to give a toad a home.
Chen Zhou shuddered as he listened inside the room.
Home?
A house full of toads?
Just thinking about it gave Chen Zhou goosebumps all over his body.
It's true that not everyone can be a mother.
The fifth brother's family didn't have dinner until after 8 p.m. tonight.
Song Mingzhou sniffed and wiggled his hips.
Chen Zhou asked him, "What are you moving around for? Did a toad crawl into your butt?"
Song Mingzhou picked up a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, then glanced at his father.
"My bottom hurts from Dad's spanking."
Chen Zhou almost couldn't help but laugh, but she kept a straight face and asked, "So, do you know you were wrong?"
Song Mingzhou nodded. "I understand, Mom. I'm sorry."
Song Jianmin tried to smooth things over, saying, "Alright, alright, it's time to eat. Son, if you misbehave again next time, even Dad won't be able to protect you."
Song Mingzhou's eyes darted around. "Okay, okay, okay!"
"What do you know?"
"I'm never catching toads again!!!"
Chen Zhou narrowed his eyes slightly, "You don't mean to think you can catch someone else, do you?"
Song Mingzhou's eyes widened. "No, no!"
Song Jianmin added, still not entirely at ease, "You can't catch anything else! Do you hear me? You can't catch snakes, you can touch cats and dogs but not catch them, and don't catch insects either!"
Song Mingzhou nodded like a chick pecking at rice.
In the evening, after taking a shower, Chen Zhou sat on the edge of the bed, rubbing her chest. She felt as if she had lost ten years of her life since giving birth.
Song Jianmin: "You've really gotten angry?"
As he spoke, Song Jianmin reached out to massage her, but Chen Zhou slapped his hand away.
"It's definitely your genes! You and your third brother are the same! Look at Junjun and your son! They both look like you two brothers!"
Song Jianmin touched his nose, wanting to refute but unable to find a way to break through.
Song Mingzhou is one thing, but even Song Liyun is a little devil. Yet Mu Chuan and Zhi Yin, and even Yan Yan and Lele are so well-behaved!
Forget it, Song Jianmin, shut up.
The more you say, the more mistakes you make.
But the good night wasn't even over yet.
Song Mingzhou then ran away from home with Song Lijun.
The next day was Saturday, and neither of the kids had school.
Song Mingzhou ate breakfast early in the morning and then slipped out of the house. Song Jianmin was resting at home today and didn't pay any attention to him, assuming he was just running around in the alley. But a little while later, Song Anmin arrived.
The first thing he said as he walked in was, "Fifth Brother, where are Yunyun and the others?"
Song Jianmin suddenly stood up. "What did you say? Junjun isn't here!"
Song Anmin's face stiffened. "Your son came looking for Junjun just now. I thought they came to your place."
"He hasn't come back. Song Mingzhou went out this morning and hasn't returned!"
Song Anmin slapped his forehead. "Find them! Find them quickly!"
"Third Brother, don't worry. Maybe they're in the alley. They might be looking for Chengcheng. Let's go check on Zhuo Huai's house."
It's not even 10 o'clock yet, and the two poor old fathers are already looking for their child again.
After leaving Zhuo Huai's house, he shouted again in the alley.
There was no one in sight.
Today, only Song Xinfu and Grandma Song were at the Song family home, and the two of them suddenly appeared.
"What's wrong? Junjun and Mingzhou aren't home?" Song Xinfu frowned, looking utterly unlucky.
Song Anmin: "Dad, both kids are missing!"
The two brothers recounted what had happened that morning, and several neighbors came out to help search.
"Let's go to the alley entrance and ask if anyone saw them go out."
Song Jianmin quickly ran outside and asked the old man selling steamed buns.
The old man was hard of hearing, and it took several attempts to get his question clear.
"Oh, I see it."
Song Jianmin asked anxiously, "Where did they go? Which direction?"
Song Anmin and the others also ran out.
The old man pointed towards the night market, "They went that way, they're quite far..."
Song Anmin's vision went black, and he almost fainted.
Song Xinfu: "Let's go, let's go, let's hurry over there."
At that time, the brother and sister had no idea what had happened.
Song Mingzhou held his younger sister's hand, intending to take her to eat delicious corn pancakes. He had money in his bag, the pocket money his grandfather had given him last week.
Song Liyun was tired from walking. "Brother, let's rest for a bit. My legs don't want to walk anymore."
Song Mingzhou then led Song Liyun to sit by the roadside. Fortunately, Song Mingzhou had good traffic awareness and found a place with few vehicles to sit down, holding Song Liyun's hand firmly.
Song Liyun was wearing a pink dress today, and her hair was tied into two little buns by Song Anmin.
"Brother, how much further?"
Song Mingzhou pointed to the night market, "It's right inside, very close, very close to Fengfeng Pavilion. My grandma brought me here to eat before."
Song Mingzhou couldn't remember the name of Phoenix Pavilion, so he always called it Fengfeng Pavilion.
Last week, Song Jianmin and Chen Zhou were both busy and had no one to look after the child over the weekend, so they had no choice but to shamelessly ask Xu Guiying to drop the child off at the Song family's doorstep and run away.
Xu Guiying was also going out that day, so she brought Song Mingzhou to Phoenix Pavilion and bought him corn cakes from a stall opposite Phoenix Pavilion.
