"What's wrong?" Yu Xiaoyu saw Zhan Zhao keep turning back, so he simply stopped, looked back, and suddenly found a little boy who was hiding behind a tree and looking at himself and Zhan Zhao. Yu Xiaoyu pulled Zhanzhao with one hand, pointed at the little boy with the other and shouted, "Hey, isn't that little boy the one we met at the night market a few days ago?" ”

"I wonder what he's going to do with us?" Zhan Zhao said softly: "Early this morning, when we came out of the inn, he followed us all the time; I noticed that he had no ill intentions, so I didn't take it seriously, thinking that he just happened to be on the same road with us. Now it seems that I was negligent. ”

"It's just a little boy," Yu Xiaoyu looked unconcerned: "How big a wave can it be?" ”

"Let's go over and have a look," Zhan Zhao looked at the surrounding environment: "There is no village in front of here, and there is no store in the back, let's take a detour and send him home first." ”

"You say that," Yu Xiaoyu pursed his lips and said stupidly, "It's as if I am so cold-blooded and ruthless, as if I have to watch him sleep in the wilderness." I was going to send him home first, okay! ”

"Yes, you have the most sense." Zhan Zhao smiled and nodded, and walked over with Yu Xiaoyu: "Little brother, why are you following our husband and wife?" ”

For some reason, Zhanzhao's voice felt extremely gentle to everyone's ears, but it seemed to give the little boy a great stimulus, he shrank his neck in horror, and his thin body couldn't help but secretly move in the direction of Xiaoyu.

Yu Xiaoyu looked at the scared appearance of the little boy in front of him who was patched but very clean, looked at Zhanzhao in puzzlement, and bent down to touch the little boy's head, looked at the little boy's eyes, and showed a kind smile: "Little brother, don't be afraid, he is not a bad person." Can you tell me your name, how old you are, and where you live? ”

The little boy looked at Yu Xiaoyu with a kind smile, lowered his head gently, and tugged at the corner of his clothes, but he didn't say a word.

"Is he mute?" Yu Xiaoyu stood up, approached Zhanzhao, and asked in a low voice, "Or is it deaf?" If so, it's troublesome. ”

"The two of us are going back to Kaifeng," Zhan Zhao gently touched the little boy's head: "You should go home quickly, don't let the family worry." ”

Zhanzhao's touch frightened the little boy and flinched. And Yu Xiaoyu noticed that when Zhanzhao mentioned "home", the little boy's eyes were slightly red, revealing a very sad look.

Zhan Zhao naturally sensed the little boy's fear of himself, so he could only glance at Yu Xiaoyu innocently, and motioned to Yu Xiaoyu with his eyes to think of a way to let the little boy go home by himself.

"Little brother," Yu Xiaoyu gently put one hand on the little boy's shoulder, and said gently, "Are you unable to find a home?" Why don't we send you to the government and let the county magistrate help you find your father, okay? ”

The little boy looked at Yu Xiaoyu, glanced at Zhanzhao in fear, and shook his head gently, not knowing whether he said that he couldn't find a home, or simply said that he didn't want to go to the government.

Yu Xiaoyu looked at Zhanzhao helplessly, spread his hands, and said that he had no choice; Zhan Zhao looked at the little boy who was obviously very afraid of him, and he couldn't do anything for a while.

"Lord Zhan," Yu Xiaoyu pulled Zhan Zhao aside and pointed at the little boy, "What can I do about this?" If he had been an orphan, things might have been better to say; But if his parents were still around, wouldn't the two of us be human traffickers? When the time comes, we will have 10,000 mouths, and we can't tell! ”

Zhan Zhao also looked at the little boy with some embarrassment: "Otherwise, let's go back to Zhongmu County again; There may be people in Zhongmu County who know where his home is and who else is in his family. ”

"That's fine," Yu Xiaoyu thought for a while, pursed the corners of his mouth and nodded: "Anyway, the two of us can't run away secretly, it's so unauthentic." ”

"It's just that you might have to go one more time." Zhan Zhao smiled and said, "If you stay here alone, I can't rest assured." ”

"Little brother," Yu Xiaoyu and Zhanzhao returned to the little boy's side, and Yu Xiaoyu said with a smile: "Let's send you back to Zhongmu County first, and let the county master send you home, okay?" ”

The little boy looked up at Yu Xiaoyu, then at Zhanzhao, and turned around and ran away.

Zhan Zhao flew over directly, brought the little boy back, put it on the ground, and said with a smile: "What are you running?" ”

The little boy bit his lip and struggled under Zhanzhao's hands, sometimes glaring at Zhanzhao angrily, sometimes secretly kicking Zhanzhao a few times.

"Lord Zhan," Yu Xiaoyu took Zhanzhao's hand and said softly, "Looking at his appearance, it seems that he doesn't want us to send him back to Zhongmu County." Why don't you forget it, right? ”

"But ......" Zhanzhao hesitated, although the little boy's uncooperative behavior made it clear that he did not want to be sent back to Zhongmu County; However, Zhanzhao could neither take him back to Kaifeng, nor could he throw him in this wilderness and leave him to fend for himself, did he really want Zhanzhao to carry him all the way back to Zhongmu?

"It's better to do it," Yu Xiaoyu saw Zhanzhao's hesitant look after being kicked by the little boy a few times, thought about it, and said softly: "Let's ask him again." ”

Zhanzhao nodded and let go of his hand: "If you don't run, I won't catch you." ”

"Little brother," Yu Xiaoyu held Zhanzhao's hand and said softly: "You tell us, where is your home, we won't send you to Zhongmu County County, okay?" ”

The little boy glanced at Zhan Zhao defensively, took a few steps back, and turned around and ran away while Zhan Zhao and Yu Xiaoyu were not paying attention.

"Hey," Yu Xiaoyu shouted, "You little ghost, what are you running for?" Do I look like Grandma Wolf? Lord Zhan," Yu Xiaoyu turned his head to look at Zhan Zhao again: "Lord Zhan, you say, do I look like Grandma Wolf?" ”

Zhan Zhao looked at the little boy's back worriedly: "I don't know where his home is?" And why run? ”

"I guess," Yu Xiaoyu thought for a while and said, "I'm afraid of seeing the county master, so I ran away!" When I was young, I was like this, and I felt uncomfortable when I saw someone in office. ”

"Lord Zhan," in the blink of an eye, the little boy's back had disappeared, Yu Xiaoyu looked at Zhanzhao's worried look, and said softly: "Why don't you follow and take a look?" With your skills, you will definitely be able to catch up with him. ”

"No need," Zhanzhao remembered the little boy's scared look when he saw him, and shook his head: "Looking at his appearance, he should be able to find a home." ”

"But," Yu Xiaoyu said with a smile, "You're still worried, aren't you?" ”

Zhan Zhao looked at Yu Xiaoyu and nodded lightly: "After all, he is still a child, ...... in this wilderness"

"Let's go," Yu Xiaoyu pulled Zhanzhao directly and walked back: "Since you are so worried, let's go back to Zhongmu County first, and let the county master help find out about his situation." ”

Zhan Zhao looked at Yu Xiaoyu and smiled with satisfaction. The two of them returned directly to Zhongmu County and asked the county commander Li Qinghe about the little boy. However, Li Qinghe had never heard of this little boy, and naturally he didn't know where he lived. However, in the face of Zhan Zhao and Yu Xiaoyu, who rushed back to inquire about this matter, he still promised that he would definitely investigate the little boy's life experience on his behalf.

The next day, Zhan Zhao and Yu Xiaoyu set foot on the road back to Kaifeng again.

"What's wrong?" Zhan Zhao looked at Yu Xiaoyu and said with a smile: "Still worried? ”

"I always feel," Yu Xiaoyu approached Zhanzhao and whispered, "He's still following us." Master Zhan, you say, am I being tossed out of trouble by that little boy? ”

Zhan Zhao looked at Yu Xiaoyu's nervous appearance and said with a smile: "Don't worry, he may have gone home and won't follow us anymore." ”

"Are you really sure?" Yu Xiaoyu looked at Zhanzhao: "Don't walk halfway and see him again, I don't want to go back to Zhongmu County again." ”

"Yesterday," Zhanzhao said with a smile, "I saw that although the little boy's clothes were patched, they were neat and clean, and the stitches were dense, obviously from the hands of women, I think he should have a mother or female elders......"

"Therefore," Yu Xiaoyu looked suddenly realized: "Although I don't know why he followed us, he must have a family, right?" ”

"It's just my guess," Zhanzhao said with a smile, "Maybe his house is near here, and he really happened to be on the same road with us yesterday." ”

"So," Yu Xiaoyu suddenly reacted: "You have already seen it, and you are still deliberately watching me pretend to be a god stick there, guessing whether he has a home or not, isn't it?" ”

"Okay," Zhan Zhao touched his nose and said with a smile: "It's not too early, let's hurry up." ”

"I'll let you go this time," Yu Xiaoyu pouted and chased after him: "You'll have a look next time." ”

It wasn't until Yu Xiaoyu and Zhanzhao returned to Kaifeng that they knew that in the short time that the two of them had left for a few days, a major event had happened that made all Kaifeng happy-Master Bao became a father.

Seeing that Master Bao was so happy that he couldn't even close his mouth, Yu Xiaoyu secretly pinched Zhan Zhao to prevent himself from really laughing: "Lord Zhan, you talk to Lord Bao, I'll go see Mrs. Bao." ”

Zhan Zhao nodded, turned his head and continued to talk about business with Master Bao, who was smiling so much that he only had a mouthful of white teeth.

Yu Xiaoyu went directly to Mrs. Bao. Looking at the big fat boy sleeping soundly in the cradle, Yu Xiaoyu took out a pure gold longevity from his arms and put it on the edge of the cradle, secretly glad that he reacted fast enough, and when he heard the news that Mrs. Bao had a child, his first reaction was to run home and get this congratulatory gift that he had already prepared.

"Mrs. Zhan?" Mrs. Bao was taken aback when she saw Yu Xiaoyu's actions, and hurriedly motioned to the maid next to her to return the longevity to Yu Xiaoyu: "This is not good......

"What can't work," Yu Xiaoyu smiled and put the longevity next to the child again: "This is for the child, not for you and Lord Bao, if you have something to say, let him tell me directly." Mrs. Bao," Yu Xiaoyu sat down beside Mrs. Bao with a smile and asked cautiously, "Does it hurt very much?" ”

"It's okay," Mrs. Bao looked at her son affectionately: "When you see him, you will feel that all the hardships are worth it." ”

"Look at it like this," Yu Xiaoyu blinked and said with a smile: "Lord Bao is going to fall out of favor!" ”

"What about you," Mrs. Bao said with a smile, "When are you going to have a child with Zhan's guards?" ”

"Me and Lord Zhan?" Yu Xiaoyu smiled: "We're not in a hurry. ”

"Xiaoyu," Pei Muyan's voice suddenly came from the door: "You're back?" ”

"Yes," Yu Xiaoyu quickly stood up: "When I came back, I heard that Mrs. Bao had given birth, so why don't you come and take a look!" Mrs. Bao," Yu Xiaoyu turned to Mrs. Bao again and said with a smile: "You have a good rest, I won't bother you." ”

Mrs. Bao looked at Yu Xiaoyu's back of "running away", shook her head with a smile, and said to the maid next to her: "It seems that Mrs. Zhan is embarrassed." ”

"Madam," Yahuan smiled, "Do you think Mrs. Zhan looks like someone who will be embarrassed?" ”

Mrs. Bao remembered Yu Xiaoyu's words and deeds, and had to admit that Yahuan's words still had some truth, so she had to smile and kiss her son's face, secretly hoping that Yu Xiaoyu would understand it earlier, and have a child with Zhanzhao, but don't wait until Bai Yutang, who doesn't even have a daughter-in-law, has a child, she and Zhanzhao are still "not in a hurry"! 166 Reading Network
