Chapter 51 Auntie, you're amazing!
Tang Dabao and Fu Manduo rushed over and helped her up.
Little Su Bao bit her lip, enduring the pain, her eyes red and swollen.
But she still obediently said to the two of them, "It's okay, it doesn't hurt, Su Bao is fine!"
Looking at the tiny scratches on Xiao Su Bao's hands and then at her well-behaved appearance, Fu Manduo felt a pang of heartache.
If I had cut my own hand, I would have cried my eyes out long ago.
But why is this little dumpling so well-behaved!
Tang Dabao felt even more heartbroken, blaming himself for not taking good care of his aunt.
She pursed her lips, tears welling up in her eyes!
"Hey, look what I found!" Little Su Bao suddenly blinked and said.
The two were taken aback and looked over at the same time.
Right where Xiao Su Bao fell, there was a tree hole.
Moreover, the tree hole was just the right size, big enough for three people to crawl into.
It looks quite dry inside.
Ignoring the pain and sadness, Xiao Su Bao quickly got up and crawled into the tree hole.
Before Tang Dabao could stop her, she had already disappeared, so he had no choice but to quickly follow her.
The three of them crawled inside, and the tree hole was surprisingly large.
Moreover, some glowing stones were left inside by some animal, so it's not very dark inside.
"Gurgle..." Just as the three were examining the tree hole, Fu Manduo's stomach suddenly rumbled...
She usually eats quite a lot, but today she missed her extra meal because she went into the mountains to dig for wild vegetables.
She was really hungry right now.
Fu Manduo clutched his stomach, revealing a simple, honest smile.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to..." Fumanduo said apologetically to the two of them.
Tang Dabao was the oldest among them. He glanced around, thought for a moment, and then said, "Don't rush. When I came in, I saw some wild fruit over there. I'll go pick some!"
Fu Manduo immediately looked at Tang Dabao with admiration. For this little foodie, nothing made her happier than eating.
She pulled her dagger from her ankle.
Her eyes immediately lit up as she said, "I'll go with you!"
The two looked at Xiao Su Bao, who thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "There's wood here, I'll light a fire for us!"
Tang Dabao was stunned and looked at Xiao Subao in disbelief.
The little dumpling took out two flints from her bag.
Tang Dabao was stunned, thinking that the little dumpling might just be talking.
"Okay, let's go find something to eat. You stay here by yourself. If anything happens, just shout for help!"
Tang Dabao patted Xiao Su Bao's hair, a smile on his face.
Little Su Bao nodded, took out a flint and steel, and began piling up the twigs in the corner and lighting them.
After Tang Dabao and Fu Manduo came out, they went to find something to eat. Fu Manduo didn't recognize anything and could only follow behind Tang Dabao.
Little Su Bao lit the fire with just two taps.
After the mute old woman turned into a star, she started cooking for herself, and she did a lot of these things.
After lighting the fire, she had time to wander around the tree hollow.
For the little dumpling, the tree hole was quite large, surrounded by thick tree trunks, and in the corner, besides these strange glowing stones, there were some fallen leaves and small branches.
Little Su Bao rummaged around, trying to find something.
The fallen leaves were piled up in heaps, as if someone had specially arranged them. Little Su Bao picked up some and planned to put them on the fire.
She froze when she picked up the leaves.
There were many pine nuts, peanuts, hazelnuts, acorns, and chestnuts under the leaves.
Little Su Bao didn't recognize these fruits, but instinctively felt that they were edible.
She followed the same method and opened the remaining piles of leaves, and sure enough, there were all kinds of dried fruits underneath.
There are still a few walnuts left!
Xiao Su Bao took a few walnuts and cracked them open with a stone.
The kernels inside were then exposed.
She smiled sweetly and tossed the fruit shells into the fire.
She ate only one walnut before starting her long work, and soon she had cracked open a lot of walnut kernels.
Fortunately, she was strong. There was a walnut tree in their yard, and she became skilled at smashing them after doing it many times.
After finishing all that, Xiao Su Bao looked at the chestnuts next to her, thought for a moment, and then started peeling chestnuts again.
She had never eaten the nuts inside before, so she obediently put them aside and waited for Tang Dabao and the others to return.
The children had no idea that Tang Cheng and his friends were going crazy searching for him.
Among the remaining people in Zhao Family Village, there were still a few members of the Red Ghost Mountain bandits!
These are not problems at all!
But when Fu Manduo and the others disappeared, Fu Lin immediately got angry!
Fu Manduo was the only child left to him by his deceased wife.
"Find her! Even if you have to dig three feet into the ground, find my daughter!" Fulin roared.
The people of Tangjia Village and the yamen runners and their cronies all agreed.
When Qian heard that Xiao Su Bao and Tang Da Bao were missing, she almost flew into a rage and went straight to Zhao Family Village to fight them.
Fortunately, the constables stopped them, preventing a fatality.
"If anything happens to my daughter and grandson, I will make everyone in Zhao Family Village pay with their lives!" Madam Qian said through gritted teeth, her eyes filled with rage.
The three little ones, however, were unaware of what was happening outside.
Tang Dabao found a bunch of unidentified small red fruits. He frowned, knowing that these things wouldn't be enough to fill their stomachs.
They found some wild vegetables, but without a pot, they couldn't even make some vegetable soup.
When they finally returned, they brought the wild vegetables with them.
"Wow, Auntie, you're amazing! Where did you find so many hazelnuts, acorns, chestnuts, walnuts, and other nuts?" Tang Dabao walked over quickly, his eyes falling on the dried fruits, and his mood became very good.
Little Su Bao scratched his head, looking a little embarrassed.
She felt that these things were already there, and she had only helped to add a little bit; it wasn't anything special.
"They were all under the leaves; I found them when I was collecting the leaves!"
Little Su Bao pointed at the walnuts and continued, "I recognize these, they're called walnuts or something, but I don't know if I can eat them!"
The little babies are so soft and cute, they look very well-behaved.
Tang Dabao's eyes lit up. He walked up to Xiao Subao with a big smile on his face.
"These are all edible. This is a hazelnut, this is an acorn, and this is a chestnut. You can roast them in the fire or eat them raw!"
"Auntie, you're amazing! You peeled so many chestnuts. We can eat them raw later, they'll be so delicious!" Tang Dabao put the chestnuts aside, his eyes lighting up.
Little Su Bao squinted her eyes happily, her lips curving into a smile.
Suddenly, a rustling sound came from the entrance of the tree hole, and the three of them immediately fell silent and looked over.
