Yu Hongqing's funeral lasted for three days. She was buried on the top of a mountain covered with peach and plum trees. At that time, the pink flowers of the peach trees and the white flowers of the plum trees complemented each other, forming a sharp contrast.

Without his mother's support, Little Candy didn't have a good life in the village, but he still stayed at home obediently, feeding the small animals in the yard and depending on them for survival.

He promised his mother that he would wait for his father, whom he had never met, to pick him up and that he would be obedient.

Little Tangguo stood on a stool in front of the simple desk in the room and wrote calligraphy with a brush. Although he was imitating, his own style had already taken shape.

Soft yet firm, with time, sharp pen strokes and powerful fonts will eventually be formed.

Daju was lying on the table watching him write. His inverted vertical pupils looked like crystal clear colored glass beads under the light, very beautiful.

Little Candy, with his baby fat puffed up, tried to lie on tiptoe with some difficulty. The table was too high for him, and even with a stool, it was still a bit difficult to reach the table.

"Huh..." Little Candy finished writing the last stroke and let out a long sigh after putting down the pen. He looked at the words he had written with bright eyes, "I'm finally done. Mom will definitely be very happy when she finds out."

After Little Candy finished saying this, she suddenly thought of something, and her bright eyes suddenly dimmed. She said in a low voice, "I almost forgot... Little Candy no longer has a mother."

As soon as Little Candy finished her words, she heard the sound of the yard being kicked open from outside. The fierce barking of Big Yellow and the puppy, mixed with the sounds of the frightened mother duck and mother hen, came into Little Candy's ears.

Little Candy was also startled and almost fell off the stool. He looked out the door, and when he saw a burly man with a scar on his face walking in with two tall and thin men, his whole face turned pale with fright.

The people who came were none other than the village tyrants Daqing, Han Dali and Zheng Ousan. These three people were notoriously domineering in the village.

They rob the elderly of their money or the children of their hard-earned wild vegetables or caught fish. If they are not given, they will beat you. It is really disgusting.

When Yu Hongqing was there, he called the police and sent them to prison, and peace was restored in Qishan Village. But unexpectedly, they were released from prison? When did it happen?

Little Tangguo was very self-aware. He knew he couldn't win after just one look, so he quickly got down from the table, turned around, went into the house, and ran to the back door holding Yu Hongqing's portrait.

Daju ran with him. The mother dog Dahuang was not welcome to the arrival of the three people. The barking of the dogs became louder and louder, deafening every time.

"Boss, aren't you going to chase that damn kid if he runs away?"

Zheng Ousan looked at Wang Daqing and asked this question with gnashing teeth, "This damn bastard's mother made me sit in jail for so many years. It's a relief for her if she dies. If I can't avenge her, I can go after her son. There's nothing wrong with that!"

"What? What do you want to do after catching him?" Han Dali looked at Zheng Ousan and glared at him as if he were an idiot.

"How many years will you spend in jail after beating him to death? Do you know that killing a child is a capital crime? If you want to die, don't drag me down. I just want to find a place to stay."

While Han Dali was speaking, Wang Daqing had already walked up to Dahuang with a stick, and was about to end its life with one blow. While they were having a dog meat hotpot tonight, Dahuang seemed to know his intention, turned around and ran, reminding his cubs to run quickly.

“Woof woof woof!”

The puppies barked a few times in a bluffing manner and then ran away through the dog hole. Dahuang ran directly to the back door to catch up with Little Tangguo.

"Ouch~ It ran away, what a pity."

Wang Daqing said this with a look of regret, but there was no trace of regret on his face. He threw the stick on the ground, walked under the eaves and lay down on the recliner, "I'm going to sleep, you guys can do whatever you want with these living meats."

As soon as Wang Daqing finished speaking, Han Dali and Zheng Ousan looked at each other, and then the cries of female ducks and old hens were heard in the yard.

Little Tangguo ran for a long time holding Yu Hongqing's portrait and fell several times. Although it was very painful, he held the portrait tightly to prevent it from being damaged.

The big orange cat followed him, and when he saw him fall, he stood beside him, nudged him with his head, and meowed, as if telling him to get up and keep running. Encouraged by it, the little candy got up again and continued running.

The picture of a chuckled, stumbling little boy running with a big orange cat makes one feel complicated no matter how one looks at it, and only the parties involved can understand the sadness in the picture.

Little Candy ran to Yu Hongqing's grave and stopped. His clothes were already dirty with mud, and there was a lot of mud on his chubby little face. There was also mud on his little hands, and there were some scratches.

Little Candy's eyes were red, his grape-like eyes were wet with mist, and his little mouth was pouting. He clearly looked like he was about to cry, but he tried his best to hold it back and did not cry in front of his mother.

"Mom, I'm sorry, little Candy is too small and can't protect Duck and Mother Chicken well..."

Little Candy knelt in front of the grave, leaning against the tombstone and choking up as he apologized to his mother who would never answer him again. He curled himself up into a small ball, looking extremely pitiful.

Big Orange sat next to Little Candy and nudged him with his head, as if telling him not to be sad. Little Candy hugged Big Orange in his arms, but eventually he couldn't help crying softly.

“Woof woof woof!”

Da Huang and his three puppies came over following the smell of the candies. When they found him crying, they gathered around him and licked his cheeks.

The puppy stretched out its paws and scratched his feet, making a humming sound, sounding a little helpless.

"Da Huang, Little Candy fell down, it hurts... Ouch..."

The wronged little Tangguo had no way to complain to her mother, so she could only hug Dahuang in one hand and Daju in the other, and cried sadly for a long time.

Big Yellow licked his cheek, Big Orange also let him hold him obediently, and the three little puppies circled in front of him to make him happy.

Little Tangguo cried for a long time before he got rid of his grievances. He wiped his tears and suddenly saw the jade pendant on his neck. He touched it blankly and suddenly remembered what his mother said.

His mother asked him to wait for his father to pick him up, but so many days have passed and his father hasn't come to pick him up. His father must be very busy, but he has no home now and can't wait for his father.

When little Candy thought of this, his eyebrows frowned, his mouth curled up, and he was about to cry again. But before he cried, he saw his mother on the tombstone again.

A new idea suddenly came into his little head, so he asked his mother.

"Mom, Dad hasn't come to pick up Little Candy yet. He must be busy saving the world and doesn't have time to pick me up. Can I go find him myself?"

No one answered him, but the orange and yellow dogs surrounding him seemed to understand what he said and barked and meowed at him softly.

Little Candy seemed to have received affirmation in an instant. She hugged Dahuang and Daju and kissed them, then hugged the three little puppies and kissed them.

"Big Yellow, Orange, Little Dog, and Little Candy have decided to go find their daddy by themselves. Do you want to go with me?"

The five little animals seemed to understand and they all made noises to agree with him. Little Candy finally laughed. Although her eyes were red, she still couldn't hide the cute dimples on her cheeks when she laughed.

"Mom, I can't take your photo with me. I'm sorry," Little Candy smiled and suddenly saw the photo in his arms. He felt embarrassed and sad. He thought for a long time and finally decided to bury his mother's photo here. "Mom, I will come back to pick you up after I find Dad."

Little Tangguo held the portrait for a long time before she reluctantly dug a hole with Dahuang and buried the photo in it. She then filled it with soil, patted it flat, and covered it with grass. Then, with red eyes, she kowtowed to Yu Hongqing as a farewell.

Little Candy stretched out his chubby little hands and wiped his eyes. Then he stood up from the grass and walked down the mountain with the five little animals. He wanted to take a ride in a car. Only by taking a car could he leave here.
