Chapter 365 Meeting Yuanbao Again
"Zhiyu, are you sure you didn't admit your mistake?"
Nanzhi frowned, a little confused.
The little guy pursed his lips and shook his head, "Auntie, I can see clearly, it's Sister Yuanbao."
He met Brother Doudou and the others when they went to the bookstore today.
But Sister Yuanbao didn't let him tell his mother-in-law, so he came out quietly.
He just wanted to give sister Yuanbao some money so that she could have a place to eat.
"Zhiyu, do you know where she is? Take Aniang there quickly."
Seeing that he was speaking seriously, Nanzhi felt a little worried.
Yuanbao is only over four years old. Why would Chi Sheng let her, a little girl, come to Yancheng?
Shen Zhiyu nodded and was about to lead Nanzhi out.
Father Lin and Mother Lin looked at each other and wanted to follow but were stopped by Lin Yicheng and Lin Ercheng.
"Mom and Dad, it's too late. You should go back and rest. My second son and I will follow Fat Ya to have a look. You guys can rest well."
Lin Yicheng said, and Lin Ercheng also echoed.
Father Lin and mother Lin were old enough. Hearing this, they just nodded and told them to follow Nanzhi.
"Tui'er, you go back and rest first." Lin Ercheng touched Sun Cui's head and said with a smile.
"Okay, then you guys come back early." Sun Cui nodded and did not follow.
She always felt very tired these days.
The night was still a bit sultry. Seeing Shen Zhiyu leading the way with her short legs, Nanzhi felt a little distressed and wanted to hug him on the way, but he refused.
"Auntie, Zhiyu is a big boy now, Zhiyu can walk on his own."
The little doll spoke seriously, without any pause in his movements.
"good."
Nanzhi nodded and didn't dwell on this with him anymore.
She is worried about Yuan Bao.
That soft little girl.
Xiao Zhiyu led the three of them and walked left and right for a quarter of an hour before they stopped.
Looking at the dilapidated courtyard in front of him, Nanzhi was stunned for a moment.
"Aniang, sister Yuanbao and I have made an appointment to meet here tonight."
After walking all the way, Xiao Zhiyu was breathing heavily, but she still pointed to the small yard in front of her and said to Nanzhi.
He originally wanted to take Sister Yuanbao home, but she refused. After arguing for a long time, he remembered that there was an old house where no one lived, so he made an appointment with her.
"Good boy Zhiyu, wait here." Nanzhi touched his head and was about to open the door, but was stopped by Lin Ercheng.
"Fat Ya, you wait here with Zhiyu, I'll go take a look."
Lin Ercheng was talking and already walked towards the wooden door.
Because it was a house that had been abandoned for a long time, there were no lights in the courtyard. Only the moon in the sky and the lantern in Nanzhi's hand showed a faint light.
Lin Yicheng protected Nanzhi and his wife, while Lin Ercheng reached out to push the door open.
With a creaking sound, the wooden door was gently pushed open, revealing the scene inside - except for a few dusty tables, chairs and benches and a pile of straw covered with cobwebs, there was nothing else.
After looking carefully, Lin Ercheng shook his head.
"There's no one inside."
Shen Zhiyu had a look of disbelief on his face, and without caring about anything else, he just ran over with his short legs.
Both wooden doors were opened, and the empty scene inside was revealed before their eyes.
"Auntie, sister Yuanbao is missing!"
Shen Zhiyu was inevitably panicked. Seeing him like this, Nanzhi's heart, which had just calmed down, suddenly tightened.
"Zhiyu, are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"
The little guy looked like he was about to cry and shook his head repeatedly.
"Aniang, I made an agreement with Sister Yuanbao to have her wait for me here!"
"Zhiyu, don't worry, you and your mother-in-law wait here for a while, and uncle will go look for him." Lin Yicheng patted the little guy's shoulder reassuringly, looked at each other with Lin Ercheng, and then each found his way. Check it out.
Lin Yicheng and Lin Ercheng both had some disbelief in their hearts.
After all, Qingfeng Village is far away from Yancheng. How could a little girl like Yuanbao come here?
Even if she comes, she will only be with her father, and there is no way she will get lost.
They were thinking this in their hearts, but when they remembered that the little girl was lost by Chi Sheng once, they both started to murmur.
"Ingots?"
"Ingots!"
The two searched for a long time and found a string of children's footprints heading towards the backyard.
When the two brothers took a look, they felt a little more wary.
The little baby's footprints were very messy. Could something have happened?
They came out in a hurry, and they didn't bring anything with them for self-defense. They could only pick up a chair leg from the ground nearby and hold it in their hands.
"Who, who's there?"
Yuanbao had become a dirty doll all the way here. When she met Zhiyu today, she thought of denying him, but when her stomach growled, she felt aggrieved.
I can only look for Zhiyu with tears.
The two little kids made an appointment to meet here at night. Yuanbao had hidden in the house early, just waiting for Zhiyu to come.
Half an hour ago, she heard a voice coming from outside the door. She thought it was Shen Zhiyu coming over. Just as she was about to open the door, she heard the people outside the door arguing, so she hurriedly hid in the haystack.
Now that she heard someone calling her, Yuan Bao didn't dare to speak easily. He just huddled in the haystack and looked at people through the gaps.
The sky was too dark, and Lin Yicheng and Lin Ercheng were a bit tall. Even if he called her, Yuan Bao did not dare to answer, but quietly huddled in the haystack.
Nanzhi was anxious, so he only took Zhiyu and walked a few steps into the house.
"Fat Ya, just take Zhiyu and wait for us at the door. We don't know what's going on inside, so don't come in yet."
Lin Yicheng warned, and then continued to look for the person in the dark.
"Okay, brother, please be careful." Nanzhi responded, placed the lantern on himself, and squatted down to take Shen Zhiyu into his arms.
"Good boy Zhiyu, sister Yuanbao will be fine."
The little guy was so anxious that he had already dropped the golden peas.
When he saw the golden light through the gap, Yuan Bao finally couldn't help it and ran out of the haystack crying.
"Aniang! Aniang! Yuanbao is scared!"
The little girl had suffered a lot along the way, and now she had become skinny and skinny. Her hair was matted and had a lot of straw stuck to it, and only her eyes were round and shiny.
"Yuan, Yuanbao?"
Looking at the little girl in front of her, Nanzhi almost didn't recognize her.
Why did Yuanbao look like this after not seeing each other for a few months?
"Auntie!" Yuanbao threw herself into Nanzhi's arms and cried. Shen Zhiyu knew that she was frightened, so he patiently stood aside and patted her back gently.
"My sister is not afraid."
Hearing the noise outside, Lin Yicheng and Lin Ercheng stopped looking inside and retreated together.
After taking her back home and looking at the little baby holding the noodle bowl and devouring it, Nanzhi spoke with distress.
"Yuanbao, why did you come here alone? Where is your father?"
The little girl ate the noodles with big mouthfuls, and when she heard Nanzhi's words, her tears began to well up again.
"I, I ran out on my own."
