Hongqi Square is neither near nor far from Pei's house. Huya, Xiao Ningbao and the dog were walking slowly on the snow-covered road.
With his keen sense of smell, Huya carefully followed the trail all the way and finally brought Xiao Ningbao to Hongqi Square.
The square was crowded with people waiting to watch the fireworks.
There were too many people, and Yubao's scent was gradually drowned out. Huya could only follow Xiao Ningbao closely.
Little Ningbao was attracted by the people selling candied haws and completely forgot the purpose of his coming here.
She had no money in her pocket, only nuts and biscuits.
She tilted her little head back, staring at the shiny candied haws, her mouth almost watering.
The vendor selling candied haws spotted the curious little girl at first sight and said, "Little girl, do you want to eat candied haws? Hurry up and ask your parents to buy some."
When Xiao Ningbao heard him mention his parents, she turned her head and looked around, then she woke up from her dream and remembered that she had run away secretly.
The adults around her were so tall! She was so small that she felt helpless and terrified in the crowd.
Suddenly I miss my parents and brother...
Yu Baogang and a few of his friends occupied the best viewing spot not far away, and he vaguely heard a familiar cry.
He was very familiar with that voice. It was his crybaby sister Pei Si Ning.
But why is she here?
He must have heard it wrong. There were many girls around the same age as Xiao Ningbao in the square today, and they all cried in similar tones.
He comforted himself with a few words, and his friends around him happened to come to chat with him. When he was about to ignore the crying, he heard two dog barks.
His heart sank. It was Tiger Fang!
If Xiao Ningbao's crying was a coincidence, coupled with Hu Ya's barking... then it definitely couldn't be such a coincidence.
The thought of his sister being nearby made him angry and anxious.
"Pei Yuxiu, where are you going? The show is about to start and we finally got a spot!" a little fat man shouted in confusion.
"I'll be back in a while!" Yu Bao didn't look back, but decisively squeezed towards the crying sound.
There were too many people and the noise was too loud. He was losing his way when Hu Ya smelled his scent, bit Xiao Ningbao's clothes and dragged her forward.
"This big dog bit the child! Look how scared the child is, beat it to death!" The people who didn't know the truth just thought that little Ningbao was scared to tears by the tiger's fangs, and some enthusiastic people were already looking for tools to beat out the fangs.
Although Xiao Ningbao was scared, when he heard someone was going to hit Huya, he instinctively hugged Huya's neck and wanted to protect it.
"Hey, this dog shouldn't belong to this kid, right? The kid doesn't look like he's scared by the dog, does he?"
Fortunately, Xiao Ningbao protected Hu Ya in time, otherwise Hu Ya would have been misunderstood for no reason.
"Whose child is this? Where did the adults go? Maybe they got lost..."
The loud-voiced aunt yelled at the top of her lungs, which just happened to reach Yu Bao's ears. After he determined the direction, he immediately rushed towards Xiao Ningbao and Hu Ya.
Pushing aside the crowd of onlookers, they saw little Ningbao hugging Huya's neck tightly and crying breathlessly.
"Pei Sining! Who asked you to follow me?" This was the first time Yu Bao called his sister's full name out of anger.
"Brother..." When little Ningbao saw his brother coming, his tear-red eyes lit up and he immediately ran towards him.
Feeling his sister's trembling body, Yu Bao's angry reproaches were all stuck in his throat. He patted her back and comforted her: "It's okay. Don't sneak out after me again."
"I know, brother~" Little Ningbao was really scared and was very well behaved at this moment.
"Swish~Bang——" Gorgeous fireworks bloomed above the brother and sister's heads, casting dazzling colors on their faces.
"Brother, look, it's so beautiful..." Little Ningbao tilted his head back and looked at the fireworks blooming one after another, clapping his hands excitedly.
Yubao was really envious of her carefree look. They had been out for more than an hour, and their family must have noticed they were missing long ago. They would definitely be scolded when they returned.
Originally, he could just go out alone and sneak back, but he didn't expect that a troublemaker would show up along the way.
“Hey~”
"Pei Yuxiu, you still have to bring your sister with you when you go out? How pitiful!" Several little boys who came over after watching the fireworks looked at the brother and sister, their faces full of mocking sympathy.
Little boys are always reluctant to play with girls, thinking that girls like to cry and complain, so they also exclude friends who are girls.
"Let's go back first. You can just hold your sister's hand and walk slowly behind..."
Yu Bao looked at his friends running away in a swarm, and glanced helplessly at the innocent-looking little Ning Bao.
"Let's go! Let's go home."
"Yeah." Little Ningbao may have realized that her brother was isolated because of her existence, and she felt a little ashamed.
"Do you want to eat candied haws?" Yu Bao took his sister's hand and looked at the vendor selling candied haws.
Mom always restricts them from eating too much sweets, so my sister is very greedy for them.
"I want candied haws." Little Ningbao said in a soft voice with shining eyes.
"Okay, I'll buy it for you as a New Year's gift."
Yubao picked out the largest bunch of candied haws for Xiao Ningbao, "You have to finish eating them before you go home. If mom catches you eating sweets, you'll get a beating."
“Hmm…” Little Ningbao took the candied haws and was about to put it into his mouth.
Huya, who was following behind him, kept barking excitedly. Yubao touched its head helplessly: "Huya, you can't eat this..."
Little Ningbao ate four in a row and felt a little sick of it. Yubao took the remaining two and wiped her mouth after eating them. After making sure there was no trace of stealing, he took his sister back.
