Chapter 234 Children's Friendship
"Awoo~"
The wolf cub seemed to sense that its master's presence had faded away and began to howl incessantly.
Fang Luxue chased after them for a few steps and saw the two people in the courtyard looking around with a hint of confusion in their expressions. "What's wrong with you two?"
Wan Qiqi turned around, her gaze sweeping over Fang Luxue before settling on Chen Yongxing and Chen Yongliang, who had come out upon hearing the commotion.
"Find the little monkey; he overheard us saying we were going to send him away!"
Both Chen Yongxing and Chen Yongliang showed surprise on their faces.
In their eyes, Wan Qiqi treated the little monkey just as well as Pingping and An'an, as if she were her own son.
They thought their sister-in-law would keep the little monkey for a while longer, and didn't expect to send him away so soon.
"good!"
The two brothers answered in unison and were about to walk into the fog.
"Wait!" Wan Qiqi called out to them, "After we find a safe place, let him be alone for a while!"
At this moment, perhaps the little monkey needs some quiet.
Wan Qiqi was worried that he couldn't speak and would be easily bullied.
If you get bullied, you can get back at them. But if you encounter someone with malicious intentions who's planning to kidnap you and sell you off, who knows what might happen?
After all, little monkeys can't speak, so the power of speech lies with the person who speaks.
Pingping and An'an peeked out and looked at the busy adults in the yard, exchanging glances.
The wolf cub howled in vain, then took small steps to An'an's feet and grabbed her trouser leg, dragging her away.
Although An'an is small, she is not someone that a little wolf can shake.
But she felt movement beneath her feet and lowered her head.
"Awoo~ Awoo~" The wolf cub looked up and howled at An'an incessantly.
Its expression seemed to carry a hint of pleading, begging the other party to take it to its owner.
An'an squatted down, stretched out her finger and poked the wolf cub's nose, "He ran away on his own, we didn't chase him away."
"Awoo~" The wolf cub wasn't annoyed when someone poked its nose. It stretched out its head and rubbed against An'an's palm, looking rather pitiful.
Pingping frowned as she watched her younger sister interact with the wolf cubs, looking like a little adult.
It's true that he doesn't like little monkeys.
It's also true that I don't want my mother to worry.
After hesitating for a long time, he made a decision!
"An'an, shall we go find him?"
An An turned her head and looked at Ping Ping with a hint of doubt in her eyes.
After a moment of stunned silence, she picked up the wolf cub and whispered, "Go secretly, don't let your mother find out!"
The two children, taking advantage of the adults' busy work, tiptoed out of the Chen family's courtyard.
They thought they were very clever for not letting the adults find out, but in reality everyone knew that the two of them had gone out, and Wu Gousheng even reported it directly to Wan Qiqi.
Wan Qiqi watched the two figures disappear into the mist, then patted Wu Gousheng on the shoulder, "Just have Erpang and the others keep an eye on them, and also tell them to keep an eye on Lin Xiaohua and Sun Daxiong's movements."
"Okay!" Wu Gousheng agreed and immediately left the courtyard.
The fog was too thick to travel, so we stayed indoors most of the time.
After Wang Zhi dug up and sorted all the ripe vegetables in the garden, he heard Li Chongniang and Chen Yongxing discussing the little monkey. He immediately came out of the main room and craned his neck to look.
Wan Qiqi turned around and happened to see it.
She walked over and placed her hands on Wang Zhi's shoulders. "Mother, don't worry, we've already had someone keeping an eye on things!"
Wang Zhi sighed, slapped his thigh, and said, "With such thick fog, what if we fall?"
“The fog is so thick, you should go back inside and rest.” Wan Qiqi touched Wang Zhi’s exposed arm, which was icy cold, and her eyes became stern. “Mother, why are you acting like a child? What if you catch typhoid fever from the cold? Go back inside and warm yourself by the fire.”
As soon as she finished speaking, she pushed Wang Zhi into the house.
Wang Zhi was being pushed along, but her gaze remained fixed on the courtyard gate as she muttered to herself, "It's so cold, what if they get frostbite..."
Pingping and An'an didn't feel cold, but the little monkey was shivering from the cold.
Every winter, the tigers that come down from the mountain will find someone to take the tigers they have hunted to make new clothes for the little monkeys.
Animal fur wasn't carefully processed, and although it had a slight odor, it was warmer than clothes stuffed with reeds and willow catkins.
He sat in the fog, hugging his knees, completely disoriented.
The leaves rustled in my ears, and I could hear the rushing of the river, but all I could see was a hazy mist.
He didn't know where to go or where home was.
Although he didn't know his past, at least he had a home on Lianshan Mountain.
Now that the chief is dead and Lianshan has burned down, where should he go?
The little monkey was confused and looked dejected.
He tried to open his mouth to say something, but could only make "uh uh" sounds.
He didn't understand why he couldn't speak when he could clearly make a sound and understand what others were saying.
Just then, a wolf howl came from the fog.
"Awoo~"
The little monkey paused for a moment.
She came looking for me?
Immediately afterwards, he heard a conversation in the mist.
"Brother, are you scared?"
"I'm not afraid!"
Although Pingping answered in this way, her voice was trembling.
"Brother, the wolf cubs are so cute! Can we raise one someday?"
"Wolves are fierce and will bite!"
"But it doesn't look fierce at all, it's so cute!"
"Awoo awoo~"
The wolf cub seemed to be responding to An An's words, indicating that it was very cute.
Pingping was a little annoyed; why did her younger sister always like such fierce animals?
He remembered his father saying that the bird his sister kept was actually an eagle, an eagle that could snatch chickens away.
But the eagle was incredibly docile in its sister's hands, not at all like a bird of prey.
