Xiao Yu walked into a dilapidated house that had been repaired and renovated. It was probably the main room, and facing him was a large kang (bedded bed) that took up one wall.
At this moment, there were two girls holding two crying babies and coaxing them carefully.
"What should we do? We have no milk, and the baby can only drink rice soup, but it doesn't seem to be enough." A girl who looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old, looked like a young wife, with worried eyes.
Xiao Yu didn't even need to get close. He recognized the swaddling clothes at a glance, and the blood connection was overwhelming.
"Huh? Who are you?" The boys and girls in the room realized belatedly that the person who came in was a stranger.
Without waiting for Xiao Yu to speak, Zhou Yan walked in quickly.
When they saw Zhou Yan, the eyes of the boys and girls in the room lit up. Some of them were lying on the kang and looked at the boy, who was about twelve or thirteen years old, and they jumped up from the kang.
"Brother Zhou."
"Company Commander."
“…”
☆
Zhou Yan waved to everyone and asked Xiao Yu, "Is it them?" The swaddling clothes looked very special and were definitely not something that an ordinary family could have.
Xiao Yu nodded and stretched out two fingers to him.
Zhou Yan frowned and looked up to ask one of the girls holding the children, "When you brought the two children back, were there any babies crying nearby?"
The girl being asked was stunned for a moment: "Are there any more? I don't know, I just saw them in the snow on the side of the road, and no one picked them up for a long time, so I finally picked them up."
The young man who followed in asked, "Brother Zhou, are there any other children missing?"
Zhou Yan nodded: "There are two more boys. Gangzi, you can distribute the buns and steamed buns. After everyone finishes eating, please help. Go around and ask around to see if anyone has found two boys recently."
Xiao Yu walked over and took the crying child from the other girl besides Yingzi. It was his eldest daughter. As if sensing the presence of her family, the sobbing child immediately stopped crying, but her expression was a little aggrieved. She looked at her father with tears in her eyes, feeling very aggrieved.
"We, we don't have grandma." The girl looked embarrassed.
Xiao Yu quickly shook his head at her and waved his hands to indicate that it was okay.
☆
The people in the room looked at his actions with surprised expressions.
Is this someone who can't speak? A young man asked Zhou Yan implicitly for confirmation, and Zhou Yan nodded.
"Wooooowa┭┮﹏┭┮!" The little girl in Yingzi's arms seemed to sense her father's breath, but she didn't get his embrace for a long time. She couldn't stand it anymore and started to use her ultimate move at the top of her lungs.
Yingzi was stunned for a moment, but the three-month-old baby in her arms was really strong and struggled desperately, making it difficult for her to hold him.
Seeing the baby in her arms crying and pointing at Xiao Yu aggrievedly, Yingzi quickly leaned over and said, "She seems to want you to hold her."
The little girl was crying too loudly and twisting and turning like a fat fish. Xiao Yu was unsure if his small body could carry two fat girls, so he simply refused and let Yingzi hold the baby for Zhou Yan.
Xiao Yu: Why should we stop caring for the child just because he's ours and you're going through a tribulation? No way.
☆
"To Brother Zhou?" Yingzi was surprised.
Xiao Yu nodded.
Zhou Yan was a little surprised when he saw Xiao Yu nod as a matter of course, but he still walked over and took the little fat girl. Although the little fat girl had not had a good life in the past four days, she must have been well taken care of before. Her chubby little face was very rare to look at.
What’s even more amazing is that after the little fat girl arrived in Zhou Yan’s arms, she stopped crying when she looked at his face. After looking at him puzzledly for a while, she smiled sweetly at him, as if she knew him.
Zhou Yan frowned: ...There is indeed something strange.
☆
Gangzi distributed the steamed buns. The four girls and seven boys in the room each ate two, and there were still some left over. No one took more, and they had a satisfying lunch with the hot water from the kang.
While they were having lunch, Yingzi brought two and a half bowls of white rice porridge.
This is the lunch for the two fat girls.
When Xiao Yu saw the rice porridge that looked like clear water, he looked at Zhou Yan with depression unconsciously.
Zhou Yan: What’s that expression on your face? What are you looking at me for?
"Uh, I, I'm going to the health center later to see if I can get some milk powder."
"..." Xiao Yu was silent. This guy came to overcome the tribulation, so the milk powder and other things he had hidden in his sleeves must be gone.
He picked up a wooden spoon and carefully fed the eldest girl rice porridge. Perhaps because she had been hungry for four days, the girl, who used to refuse to eat anything that tasted a little off, opened her mouth wide, as if she was afraid that her father would not be able to feed her.
Seeing him feeding the child, Zhou Yan quickly picked up the spoon, carefully scooped a little, and fed it to him.
But I don’t know if the little girl was too smart or what, she just stared at her father with a sweet look and didn’t open her mouth.
Zhou Yan was puzzled: "Aren't you hungry?"
Little girl: My daddy is here, I want to drink sweet milk powder.
☆
Xiao Yu stretched his head and took a look at the little girl. Although she was very young, he could understand her little expressions and eyes after three months.
If he could speak, Xiao Yu would have teased Mr. Zhou. You survived a disaster and took away your daughter's food supply. Your daughter is protesting against you.
The little girl waited for a long time but didn't get her sweet milk. She immediately became unhappy and twisted around to find Xiao Yu.
Xiao Yu moved his butt and refused to take over: Why are you looking for me? I don’t have any milk powder either.
"Woo waa ...
