"aunt!"
Xiao Shuangning didn't dare to cry out loud. Tears streamed down her face and her whole body was shaking with fear. At Zhang Xiaoqin's request, she screamed again.
Only then did Zhang Xiaoqin stand up with satisfaction and return to the stone table.
"Mother, please find some time to go to Tang Boyi and find out what's going on. I don't believe Kang Shumei is hiding something from him."
"Okay, I'll go tomorrow."
"If that doesn't work, I'll go look for her in the county town. If I can't do it, how can she escape from the sky and the ground? Even the clever Monkey King couldn't escape the clutches of the Buddha! If she really is the Monkey King, then I'm the Buddha who subdues her."
Zhang Xiaoqin looked very confident and shamelessly compared herself to Buddha.
While the two were talking enthusiastically, Xiao Shuangning got up from the ground and sneaked out of the yard.
She ran out of Tang Boyi's house crying. Apart from Shumei, the only people in this world who could really care about her life or death were Tang Boyi and Zhang Binglin.
Zhang Binglin was timid and weak. Although he wanted to protect her, he always returned empty-handed. After being scolded by Wu Ju, he gave up.

"Uncle Boyi, Uncle Boyi, please open the door! I'm Xiao Shuangning, woo woo... open the door!"
Xiao Shuangning stood at the door and called for a long time, but there was no movement in the house. In desperation, Xiao Shuangning had to go to the river to find Zhang Binglin.
When Zhang Binglin was free, he had a hobby: fishing by the river with the fishing rod he had carefully selected in the bamboo forest. This allowed him to avoid being constantly scolded by Wu Ju, and it also allowed him to add a dish to his family's diet.
Xiao Shuangning kept searching along the river bank, and after a long time, she finally found Zhang Binglin on the river dam.
When she saw Zhang Binglin, it was like seeing her mother. She needed a warm embrace so much that she threw herself into Zhang Binglin's arms and burst into tears.
"Grandpa, wuwu..."
"Ningning, what's wrong with you?"
Little Shuangning just kept crying without making a sound.
Zhang Binglin lifted her head with heartache and saw the blood at the corner of her mouth and her red and swollen face.
