"What can I do" Fang Xiaoyuan is like an ant on a hot pan, running around in a hurry.
She still remembered that grandma said that if she was not obedient again, she would call her father to pick her up. If she really left, she would never see those lovely fairy friends in the chimney again.
"Hurry up and help me find a way." Fang Xiaoyuan was so anxious that she was about to cry.
"Put the blame on me." Zhou Yangyang thought for a while, and said very loyally, "I went back and told my mother that you wanted to know how tofu is made, so you came to my house early in the morning to see Making tofu. I didn¡¯t want to wake up grandma, so I didn¡¯t tell her.¡±
Fang Xiaoyuan expressed doubts about this lie, "Is this really okay"
"A dead horse should be treated as a living horse doctor, otherwise what good idea do you have?"
Fang Xiaoyuan shook her head, she didn't have any good ideas, she was afraid that grandma would really call dad when she was with her. She hated rural life so much that she just wanted to stay.
They came out from the back door of grandma's house and walked all the way to Zhou Yangyang's house along the dirt road in the village. Pushing open the door, I found that the room was quiet and there was no sound at all. Walking into the main room, the beans soaked last night to make tofu were still lying in the basin, and they had not been put into the grinder at all. Zhou Yangyang's parents were even missing.
"They should get up and make tofu at this time, why did they go out?" Zhou Yangyang held his chin, unable to figure out what happened. It was as if they came out of the chimney and the village changed.
"Could it be because they found out that you were not there, so they went looking for you?" Fang Xiaoyuan guessed.
Her face turned pale, and she stammered, "In this way, the method I just came up with won't work"
"Oops!" Zhou Yangyang sighed secretly, took Fang Xiaoyuan's hand and walked out.
They first went to the neighbor's house next door, but found that the door was closed, and no one answered after knocking for a long time, so they had to continue walking to the village.
At this time, most of the villagers are still resting, and the small mountain village is quiet, not even the smell of cooking smoke.
"It's summer now, and there is no need to burn firewood for heating. You can only smell the smoke when cooking." Zhou Yangyang explained.
"But I could smell it all the time before." Fang Xiaoyuan said, "But now I can't smell it."
"Your nose is so sharp, smarter than a puppy." Zhou Yangyang limped forward, not forgetting to seize the opportunity to laugh at her.
"Who are you calling a puppy!" Fang Xiaoyuan sniffed, dissatisfied.
"I said your nose is as smart as a puppy, but I didn't say you are a puppy."
"What's the difference?"
Just like that, the two laughed and quarreled all the way, and soon came to the old tree at the head of the village where many people gather on weekdays. The canteen hadn't opened yet, and there was a Go table on the big rock under the tree, but the chess players were still sleeping soundly in their dreams.
"What time is it, they are going to the market, aren't they?"
Going to the market is the first new vocabulary Fang Xiaoyuan learned here. The products in the canteen are limited, and the villagers can buy whatever they want in the town market. She clamored for lemon cake that day, and grandma taught her the new vocabulary.
Zhou Yangyang shook his head, "No, Mom and Dad will definitely take me with them when they go to the market."
"But we've all come here, and we haven't seen a single person. Where did they go?"
Just as the two were standing under the big tree at the head of the village, they saw a figure walking towards them from a distance. Zhou Yangyang's eyes were sharp, and he quickly recognized that it was the village partner who called Fang Xiaoyuan a "little fat girl" earlier.
"Zhou Yangyang!" The half-grown child staggered over, panting heavily, and furrowed his eyebrows and said, "Where did you go? It's hard for everyone to find!"
Fang Xiaoyuan saw the sweat on his head running down his cheeks, getting into his clothes all the way. His face was flushed, as if he had just participated in the 200-meter run in the school sports meeting. As the victim who was nicknamed, she didn't like the "partner" in front of her very much.
"Looking for me? Who is looking for me?"
"Of course it's someone from the village!" said the little friend, "Your parents found out that you were missing, so they called everyone up to look for someone before dawn at four o'clock in the morning. There was no one in Chaotian. Later, they were divided into two teams, one team went to the back mountain to search, and the other team went to Hetao."
He managed to catch his breath, saw Fang Xiaoyuan standing aside, and said, "There's also her. When you disappeared and found out that she was gone, her grandma almost drove her crazy. Where did you two hide? "
Fang Xiaoyuan and Zhou Yangyang looked at each other in blank dismay.?How to explain.
"WeActually, we have been in the chimney" Fang Xiaoyuan hadn't finished speaking when Zhou Yangyang covered his mouth. He grinned at his little friend, "We didn't go anywhere, we've been wandering around the village, maybe we just missed it."
That little friend had good ears, staring at Fang Xiaoyuan, "What did you just say? Chimney?"
"No, you heard it wrong." Zhou Yangyang put on a serious face, "Where are they? Take us to find them."
"That's right!" The friend just remembered that the most important thing now is to inform everyone that the lost Fang Xiaoyuan and Zhou Yangyang have been found, and let them stop wasting their efforts, "Follow me."
Zhou Yangyang winked at Fang Xiaoyuan, which seemed to mean that the world of goblins in the chimney was a little secret that belonged only to the two of them, and it must not be revealed to the third person in the village.
Following the little friends all the way out, after a while, they saw a group of people gathered around the river loop, chatting about something.
"They're here!" The little friend shouted at the crowd, only to see a man and a woman turn around and rush forward immediately. Zhou Yangyang was grabbed by the arm by the haggard-looking middle-aged woman, and received two solid blows on the buttocks.
Fang Xiaoyuan was already petrified when she saw this scene, and others quickly followed and surrounded them.
"If you have something to say, don't do it."
Zhou Yangyang was quickly rescued by the villagers, and stood aside, rubbing his buttocks with a blushing face. It was not the first time he was beaten by his mother, but it was really rare to be beaten in front of so many people, not to mention the little girl Fang Xiaoyuan from the city standing next to him, this really embarrassing.
Fang Xiaoyuan saw that Zhou Yangyang, who was usually fearless, did not dare to say anything, and a sudden impulse surged in his heart. She stepped forward and said to Zhou Yangyang's parents, "Uncle and auntie, I dragged Zhou Yangyang out to play, don't blame him, blame me if you want to. Besides, it is wrong to hit someone, adults must lead by example. "
These words didn't help, Zhou's mother still got angry, grabbed one of them with each hand, and dragged them towards the village, "Both of you are wrong, don't try to run away, come back with me and admit your mistake." (Note Website website: www.hlnovel.com
