Mermaid Town
Gu Lin finally got to ride the scooter he had longed for. He was so happy that his little face was beaming with joy. He laughed out loud and hummed his own adapted version of "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star", attracting the attention of passers-by.
Zhuang Mu couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips when he saw the little dumpling dancing with joy because of riding a scooter.
Children's happiness is such a simple thing.
Even though he was in this weird town and faced with unknown fear, he didn't seem to be afraid at all.
Zhuang Mu couldn't tell what he was humming, so he asked, "Kid, what are you singing?"
Gu Lin said: "Little star."
Zhuang Mu was stunned for a moment: "...Is it the one from Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star?"
Gu Lin: “Yes.”
Zhuang Mu: “…”
Zhuang Mu did not comment on this and skipped the topic.
A string of voices floated across the live broadcast room:? ? ?
[Sorry, I suddenly became temporarily deaf. Can an aunt tell me if this is the song that my kid hummed to himself to sleep before? 】
[I am also deaf and can’t hear it at all. The two versions sound a little different.]
[Isn’t the point that this song is Twinkle Twinkle Little Star? Hahaha! 】
[Hahahaha little twinkle, baby, listen for yourself, does this look like little twinkle? 】
Gu Lin tilted his head. The song he was singing was "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star".
Because he was hungry, Gu Lin found a lollipop from Ultraman's backpack and ate it first.
Zhuang Mu glanced at the lollipop and said nothing.
After a long time, Gu Lin finally remembered to ask: "Brother Zhuang Mu, where are we going now?"
I just remembered to ask now. If this was really a child kidnapping, he would have been sold long ago.
Zhuang Mu said: "Let's go back to the hospital."
When he heard that they were going to the hospital, Gu Lin was confused. Didn’t the little brother want to take him to eat delicious food?
The kid asked sincerely: "Ah? Is there any delicious food in the hospital?"
Zhuang Mu: “…”
Zhuang Mu had never seen Gu Lin's obsession with food before. He was stunned for a moment before he suppressed his smile and said, "Yes, there are."
After a pause, he asked again: "Won't your friends be worried if you run out like this?"
Gu Lin explained to him in a baby voice: "Big brother is sleeping. I called him but he ignored me. The kid woke up because he was hungry, so he ran out."
9527:【? 】
Live broadcast room: [? 】
I dare say you wanted to ride someone else's scooter, but you didn't even mention it.
It turned out that he woke up because of hunger.
Zhuang Mu smiled and said, "Yeah, the medicine added to the guests' meals seems to include sleeping pills."
Gu Lin let out an "ah".
As if he was afraid that the baby would worry, Zhuang Mu added: "Don't worry, they will wake up naturally before lunch."
Gu Lin nodded with a confused look on his face.
But in fact, he didn't understand at all.
What are sleeping pills?
Live broadcast room:
【? ? 】
【? ? ? ! 】
[Hahahaha what the hell, you just told that to the kid like that? 】
[But the kid didn’t seem to get it [laughing and crying]]
[Boy, just follow your brother Zhuang Mu and let him lead you to victory without any effort, haha]
The boy couldn’t fully understand the comments from the aunts, but he understood that he could win by just hanging around with Brother Zhuang Mu.
Well, he likes little brother!
Gu Lin could sense people's kindness and malice. He could feel that the young man had only kindness towards him and not the slightest malice, so he dared to follow him obediently.
Riding a scooter is much faster than walking, and I quickly crossed two streets.
At this time, Zhuang Mu stopped passing by a vegetable market.
When Gu Lin saw it stop here, he couldn't help but exclaimed "Huh" in confusion.
Seeing his confusion, Zhuang Mu explained, "Go buy some food and go back. We need to cook for Dr. Yu later."
If it were an adult, they would probably ask, who is Dr. Yu and why do you cook for Dr. Yu?
But after hearing this, Gu Lin just said "Oh" and asked what he was concerned about: "Can the cub eat it too?"
Zhuang Mu smiled and said, "Okay."
There was a middle-aged man selling salted goods at the entrance of the vegetable market. He was about 40 years old and had two legs that belonged to a human being, not a mermaid.
He was sitting on a small stool and when he saw Zhuang Mu, he greeted it.
Zhuang Mu also greeted the other party with a smile, and it seemed that they were quite familiar with each other.
The salty uncle looked at the kid standing on the scooter and eating candy, his eyes lit up: "What is this?"
Zhuang Mu said: "Kid, can't you see?"
Uncle Salty: "I can see it, but why is it so small? Where did it come from?"
There haven't been any children in Mermaid Town for many years.
So, when everyone suddenly saw such a small guy like Gu Lin, they looked at him as if he were a rare species.
In addition, Gu Lin looks very much like a porcelain doll and is extremely adorable. Even if one sees children every day, one cannot help but be touched by this cub.
Zhuang Mu smiled, leaned over and asked Gu Lin: "Kid, why are you so small?"
Gu Lin took the lollipop out of his mouth first and said crisply, "Because I'm young."
Then he looked at the salty uncle and said, "Stupid uncle."
Of course he is young, what's there to not understand?
After saying that, he stuffed the lollipop into his mouth again, and his chubby little face puffed up.
The salty uncle who was despised by the brat: "..."
The aunt in the live broadcast room looked at the salty uncle who was lost in thought about life and started laughing again. After the black-faced uncle, the stupid uncle also began to doubt his life.
Zhuang Mu smiled so hard that tears welled up in the corners of her eyes, making her already beautiful face even more lively and vivid.
The shabby uncle was despised and speechless for a long time, his eyes twitched and he didn't know what to say.
Zhuang Mu then explained to him: "This is our little guest."
Upon hearing this, the salty uncle slapped his forehead, as if he suddenly realized something: "Oh, this is the little guest that the mayor asked us to take good care of?"
Zhuang Mu smiled: "Yes."
Mayor Mermaid was obviously very respected here, and Uncle Salty did not dare to neglect the little guest whom he had ordered to take good care of. He immediately picked out two of the best saltwater ducks and geese and handed them over.
"Come here, little guest, this is sent to you by your uncle on behalf of our mayor."
When Gu Lin heard the word "town mayor", he looked at Zhuang Mu and asked, "Is it the mayor grandpa?"
Zhuang Mu: “…”
Salty uncle: "..."
Mayor Grandpa?
Both of them were stunned by this title for a moment, but calling him "Bandit Grandpa" would be more appropriate than "Mayor Grandpa".
Zhuang Mu was the first to regain his composure, but his tone was uncertain: "Should... be?"
When he heard that it was the mayor's order, Gu Lin happily took the goose and duck and thanked him politely: "Thank you, uncle."
Before leaving, the salty uncle said again: "Little guest, when you get to the hospital, don't forget to tell your mayor that this is a gift from me!"
Gu Lin clenched his fist and promised solemnly: "Yes, uncle, I will tell the mayor!"
After the two left, Gu Lin asked in surprise, "The mayor is also in the hospital?"
Zhuang Mu still couldn't get used to the title of "Grandpa Mayor" for a while, so he smiled and said, "Yes, the Mermaid Festival is coming soon, and the mayor and Dr. Yu are discussing the Mermaid Festival."
Next, without exception, all the uncles and aunts who came to buy groceries when they saw Gu Lin were shocked for a moment, but when they heard Zhuang Mu say that this was the little guest whom Mayor Mermaid Town wanted to take good care of, they picked out the best and freshest vegetables without saying a word and gave them to this chubby, sweet-mouthed and smiling little guest for free.
I strolled around the huge vegetable market without spending a penny, and I was so full of vegetables and meat given by the enthusiastic townspeople that I couldn't even take them all.
The harvest was rich. Zhuang Mu looked at the large and small bags of fruits, vegetables and meat with satisfaction, and said to Gu Lin with a smile: "Kid, let's go. It's time to go back to the hospital."
The entire live broadcast room was stunned by this wave of operations.
They reasonably suspected that Zhuang Mu did it on purpose, deliberately taking their cubs away to get free food and drink.
*
The vegetable market is not far from the hospital, and it only takes a few minutes to get there by scooter.
At this time, the armrests of the scooter were full of large and small bags.
Gu Lin stood between the handrail and Zhuang Mu, and because of his small body, he was completely blocked.
If you don’t look carefully when looking from the front, you won’t even notice that there is a little dumpling hidden here.
Gu Lin looked out through the gaps between the large and small bags and saw that the hospital was very large and had many tall floors. The name of the hospital was written on it - Mermaid Hospital.
But Gu Lin was illiterate and didn't know what was written, but at least he knew five numbers and knew that there were five floors.
At this time, a group of people walked out of the hospital gate.
The first two men, one of them wore a worn and dirty fedora hat, his back was straight, his face was full of wrinkles like dry tree bark, and he had a false and gentlemanly smile on his face, and his narrow eyes flashed with a shrewd cold light.
The other person walking side by side with him was a very young and handsome man, wearing a knee-length white coat and white gloves on his hands. He was tall and handsome, with an outstanding temperament.
He wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses on his high nose bridge, and his skin was so cold and pale that it was almost white, without a trace of blood.
At this moment, he was talking to the mayor with his head tilted sideways.
Behind the two of them, four or five people in nurse uniforms followed quietly at a distance of one meter.
Several people soon spotted Zhuang Mu riding a scooter.
I saw a scooter full of bags of all sizes, including a saltwater duck and a saltwater goose. It was quite a rich feast.
The young man looked at Zhuang Mu, his handsome face expressionless, his voice flat: "You're back."
The mayor couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw the bags that were barely hanging. "Buying so many things?"
Zhuang Mu smiled and said, "I didn't buy it."
Mayor Mermaid raised his eyebrows even higher, and said sarcastically, "I didn't expect that Doctor Yu has such a high profile. He has more face than the mayor, and he doesn't even have to spend money to buy groceries."
After saying this, the mermaid mayor placed his fingers on the brim of his hat, made a half-finished gentleman's salute, and then took a step forward, ready to leave.
The Mermaid Festival is approaching, and there are still many things waiting for him as the mayor to deal with.
The young man, Doctor Yu—Yu Youmian, looked at Zhuang Mu, as if asking him what was going on.
Zhuang Mu smiled and blinked: "The townspeople gave it to the little guest for free for the sake of the mayor."
The mermaid mayor paused and said, "......?"
At this time, the little dumpling who had been hiding behind the big and small bags quietly popped out his round little head, and his big black and white eyes blinked. He looked around at the uncles and aunts in white coats in front of him, and then looked at the mayor who was about to leave.
The delicate little girl looked at the mayor and called out in a sweet and sweet voice, "Grandpa Mayor!"
Mermaid Mayor: “…”
Others: “…”
Wait a minute, the mayor is... ? !
