The next morning, the family of four packed up and took a boat across the lake to Qingshan Village.

Along the way, the two little guys looked around and saw chickens foraging for food on the roadside. They refused to leave and kept chattering, as if they were asking what they were.

"This is a chicken. It can walk, run and eat..." Qin Xiaoxiao did not mind that the two little boys were very curious. Regardless of whether they could understand or not, she repeatedly told them that this was a chicken, trying to get them to understand the word "chicken".

Say the words.

The two little guys couldn't understand her meaning for the time being. They pointed at the chickens with their little fingers and whined and cooed endlessly. Until they couldn't see them anymore, they started to look at a few egrets not far away and screamed excitedly.

Qin Xiaoxiao smiled and said to Jingheng: "Brother Li, teach them quickly. Don't think they don't understand, but they know you are teaching them."

Jingheng tiptoed, and a stone the size of a thumb appeared in his hand.

When Qin Xiaoxiao saw this, he was about to ask him what he was doing picking up stones. The next moment, his eyes flashed, and the pebbles shot out and directly hit the group of egrets. The egrets were so shocked that they took off and ran away in all directions.

Seeing this scene, the two cubs held by the nannies danced excitedly: "Ahh-"

Jingheng reached out to fish Mo Mo and tugged on his little ears: "This is an egret. It can't run but it can fly. When you grow up, you can hunt it and eat it."

"Wow~" She silently expressed that she didn't understand. She looked at the egrets that flew into the distance and landed again in surprise. She really wanted to see them fly again.

It has to be said that the egret took off after being frightened, and its posture was quite elegant and beautiful. It was much more stunning than the way he had seen the sparrow fly away. It was two completely different feelings.

Noisy was not much better, he was also staring at the egret intently, his two little arms were unconsciously moving, as if he was imitating the egret to take off.

The curiosity of the two little boys was so strong that they walked for two seconds before they saw the Qin family's courtyard gate. Fortunately, they arrived early, so there was no delay.

The Qin family got up earlier and walked around the door from time to time to see if the family of four had arrived.

When Qin Shan came out again, he looked up and saw a group of people approaching from a distance. He immediately smiled and stepped forward to greet them: "It's finally here. Your grandparents have been talking about the New Year's Eve."

Qin Xiaoxiao hugged her father's arm happily: "Dad, when the weather gets warmer, I will bring the two children back often."

Qin Shan laughed heartily: "Okay, when the weather warms up, you mothers will come back and stay for a long time, so that your grandparents will not have to worry about the two little guys every day."

As he said that, he turned his head and looked at his son-in-law up and down, and looked at him with a bit of concern: "When did you come back? Is everything okay there?"

Jing Heng cupped his hands and said, "I came back at the beginning of the month. Everything went well there. Thank you father-in-law for your concern."

Qin Shan felt relieved and happily reached out to pick up Nao Nao from the nanny's arms: "Come here, let grandpa hug you."

The two little guys look exactly the same, but their temperaments are very different, which can be seen at a glance.

Nao Nao had no deep impression of his grandfather, who came to Beijing to visit him and his brother from time to time. Facing his grandfather's open arms, he frowned warily, and tightly grasped the wet nurse's clothes with his two small hands.

"This kid has forgotten grandpa again!" Qin Shan knew the little guy's temper and was not disappointed when he refused to hug him. He took out a bunch of silver bells tied with red strings from his arms and waved them in front of his eyes: "Grandpa

I asked people to do it, do you want to play?"

This is a type of rattle that makes a tinkling sound, which is very attractive to little dolls like Nao Nao.

Sure enough, not only was Nao Nao's attention attracted by the rattle, but Mo Mo, who was lying on Jing Heng's shoulder, also turned his head, stared at the rattle and stretched out his little paw: "Yeah!"

"I have both, one for each of you brothers." Qin Shan poured a bowl of water flat, took out an identical one from his arms and handed it to his grandson with a smile.

"Giggle~" Mo Mo grabbed the rattle with his little paws ready to move, laughing so hard that saliva flowed down the corners of his mouth.

Nao Nao looked at the rattle in her brother's hand and then at her grandfather's hand. She frowned but did not reach out to ask for it.

"Noisy, give me a hug, grandpa. This thing is just for you, okay?" Qin Shan shook his grandson and continued to tease him, spreading his arms to pick him up.

Nao Nao was very disrespectful. He turned his head and lay on the wet nurse's shoulder, looking unmoved.

Everyone was paying attention to his reaction. Seeing him like this, Qin Xiaoxiao said helplessly: "Dad, you'd better stop teasing him. If you force it on him later, he won't even look at it twice."

Qin Shan obviously also knew the temperament of his grandson, so he had no choice but to hold his little hand and hang the rattle in his palm: "You brat, you have such a big temper!"

Nao Nao didn't even look at him. He held the rattle tightly and shook his arms. When he heard the tinkling sound of the rattle, his little brows relaxed, and his little face showed a bit of a child's response.

Some are innocent.

Seeing the two brothers having fun, Qin Xiaoxiao and the others smiled and walked towards home while chatting.

Mr. Qin and the other three were working in the backyard. When they heard the movement in the front yard, they all washed their hands and came over.

Seeing the two milk dumplings, the two elders ignored their granddaughter and grandson-in-law and went straight forward to hug the two white and tender great-grandsons. Seeing that their little faces looked like they were carved out of the same mold as their granddaughters, their faces were all full of excitement.

He couldn't stop laughing: "Okay, okay, you're well raised!"

When Qin Xiaoxiao saw this, she instantly felt that she had fallen out of favor, and pretended to sigh: "I know that with these two little things, my grandparents will definitely not hurt me the most!"

Mrs. Miao narrowed her eyes with a smile and nodded her forehead: "You are already a mother, and you still act like a child!"

Mr. Qin even said to Momo, who was concentrating on playing the rattle: "When you grow up, don't imitate your mother!"

Only then did Mo Mo notice that the person holding him had changed. He looked at Mr. Qin for a while, then his eyes drooped and he opened his mouth to cry: "Wow——"

Qin Xiaoxiao hurriedly stepped forward to comfort her: "My dear, stop crying. Stop crying. Great-grandfather hugs you and why are you crying?"

Mr. Qin knew that he was a stranger, but he didn't expect that he would start crying directly. He said helplessly: "Just like you when you were a child, you don't let strangers hug you."

Qin Shan interjected: "This kid's temperament is also like Xiaoxiao. He is smart but also a bit silly."

Qin Xiaoxiao was unhappy: "Dad, why am I stupid? Don't say bad things about me in front of your children."

Lin Qiuniang said angrily: "What did your father say wrong? Of course you can't tell it yourself."

Qin Xiaoxiao looked at the big boy who was still crying in disbelief. He couldn't help but look at Jingheng who was making a fuss, hoping that he could say something fair.

Jing Heng's lips curled up slightly: "They are very similar."

Qin Xiaoxiao: "..."

With this dull look, Mr. Qin and others laughed heartily: "Hahahaha!"

Qin Xiaoxiao was so anxious that he wanted to stamp his feet, but this move was too childish, so he could only quietly glare at the man who was also smiling.

Seeing that all the elders were laughing, the two little guys unexpectedly stopped crying and looked at their mother eagerly. One of them screamed, and the other struggled silently in the arms of the great-grandmother.

At this time, Bieya appeared out of nowhere. Seeing Qin Xiaoxiao, he hurriedly squeezed in front of her, and Dajiao kept nuzzling her: "Hey~"

One person and one sheep have not seen each other for nearly a year, how can they miss each other.

"Bah!" Qin Xiaoxiao touched its head happily and found that its ribs were protruding. She couldn't help but feel distressed: "What's going on? Why have you lost so much weight?"

Mea couldn't answer her, and Lin Qiuniang on the side said: "There is no one who is not thin during the winter. When spring comes and there is grass to eat, the lost meat will grow back."

Qin Xiaoxiao said worriedly: "I have never seen it become so thin during the winter before. Has its appetite become smaller?"

Lin Qiuniang replied: "It seems to have gotten smaller. In the past, I soaked it in a bucket of rice bran and it would eat it all. Now it always keeps a little bit, maybe because of its age."

Sheep are not very picky eaters. They eat almost all grass except meat. In winter, when there is no grass, Bie Mea will dig up grass roots to eat. In addition, the Qin family will prepare straw, rice bran, wheat bran, etc. in advance for it to survive the winter.

Hungry for it.

Qin Xiaoxiao's heart sank. He observed Bie Bah carefully and found that Bah Bah's gray-brown hair was mixed with a lot of white hair. This was obviously a sign of aging.

There was a lump in her throat, and she thought of the rhubarb buried by Qinghu Lake, and it felt like a big stone was weighing in her heart.

"Mea~" Mea licked her hand, then bit her sleeve and pulled her out.

Qin Xiaoxiao hurriedly followed its footsteps, not knowing where it was taking her, and ended up being taken to the shed in the backyard.

This shack is its and rhubarb's nest.

Meah took her to the shack, then loosened her sleeves, and kept digging her front hooves at the place where she slept. From time to time, she raised her head and called Qin Xiao with a strong eagerness.

Tears welled up in Qin Xiaoxiao's eyes, and she held on tightly to keep from crying.

Mea is asking her for help, asking her to find her friend Dahuang, but Dahuang... Dahuang is gone!

It's been a whole year, and it turns out that Bieme has been remembering rhubarb.

During this year, it must have searched over and over again where Rhubarb had been.

Rhubarb can run around a lot. It has never been anywhere except in the deep mountains where ferocious beasts are hidden. Bieya couldn't find any trace of it wherever he looked. He felt so worried and disappointed day after day.

During this year,

Jingheng returned to the house after not seeing Qin Xiaoxiao for a long time. When he came out to look for her, he saw her sitting blankly in the corner, with her standing next to her, each one in a state of despair.

He walked over slowly and rubbed the top of her head.

Qin Xiaoxiao wiped her eyes, raised her head and said, "I'm fine."

Jingheng did not reveal her disguise, but held her hand and said, "I'll take you over to have a look."

Qin Xiaoxiao stood up, gritted her teeth tightly, and cried out.
Chapter completed!
