Chapter 13: Disappearance (2)

Professor Zhang, who was teaching substitute for Ai Chen, found that Ai Qian had not come back for a long time, and thought about finding a teacher to go to Zhao Xiaohu's house to see what was going on.

The teachers who came to teach were all in class, and after thinking about it, Professor Zhang smiled meaningfully.

Zhou Hao.

The two must have quarreled, and they didn't meet.

It's just that this week, he stood outside the classroom from time to time, secretly looking at Ai Xuan.

Those of them who are elders can't see awkward little couples, naturally they want to persuade peace.

Just be a good person and give them a chance to reconcile.

Professor Zhang, who is a man of action, has always done whatever comes to mind.

After class, I went directly to Zhou Hao.

"Zhou Hao, are you free?" Professor Zhang smiled like a fox.

"Hmm."

"A few of Ai Jing's students didn't come to class today, and she asked me to help with substitute teaching."

"Hmm."

"She went to the student's house by herself, it stands to reason that she should have come back now, I'm worried that something will happen to her, you go to Zhao Xiaohu's house to have a look."

Zhou Hao's brows furrowed, "Hmm." ”

"By the way, remember to bring an umbrella, the old man next door said that there will be another rainstorm."

"Hmm."

Professor Zhang, who had completed the task, was in a good mood and walked humming a song.

"Lao Zhang, are you so happy today?" Professor Bai, who has always been at odds with Professor Zhang, said, "Found the money? ”

Professor Zhang pursed his lips disdainfully, "I'm not as cheesy as you." ”

Then he was very mysterious, and greeted Professor Bai with gossip, "Lao Bai, come here, I'll tell you." ”

Professor Bai stepped forward, and Professor Zhang was about to speak in his ear.

When Professor Bai was looking forward to what secret Professor Zhang would say, Professor Zhang said arrogantly: "I won't tell you, guess it yourself." ”

"You ......" Professor Bai looked at his arrogant figure walking away, angry and angry.

Zhou Hao followed Professor Zhang's words and successfully found Zhao Xiaohu's home.

When I entered the door, I only saw Grandpa Zhao.

His heart began to feel uneasy, "Hello, grandpa. ”

Grandpa Zhao saw Zhou Hao and smiled, "The young man is very beautiful." ”

Zhou Hao's expression was abnormal, this should be praising him.

But praising a man for being beautiful is not very acceptable.

"Grandpa Zhao, have you seen Ai Xuan?" Zhou Hao said.

"Who do you think you're looking for?"

Zhou Hao remembered Professor Zhang's instructions, and Grandpa Zhao's hearing deteriorated a little.

I patiently repeated my question aloud.

"Ai Xuan? Who is it? ”

The villagers basically can't remember their names, only their surnames.

"It's a math teacher, a beautiful little girl, who came to your house this morning."

"You're talking about Teacher Ai." Grandpa Zhao suddenly realized.

Then he was puzzled, "Teacher Ai didn't come to our house today." ”

Zhou Hao carefully recalled the road he came from, from the school to here, there was only such a way to go.

It stands to reason that he shouldn't be wrong.

"Are you Zhao Xiaohu's grandfather?"

"Zhao Xiaohu?" Grandpa Zhao seemed to have a vague memory, "Yes, yes, he is my grandson." ”

Then he's in the right place.

"Do you know where Zhao Xiaohu went?"

Ai Jin is not here, he must have gone to find Zhao Xiaohu and them.

Grandpa was stunned for a moment, "Who are you looking for?" ”

"Zhao Xiaohu."

"I don't know him." Grandpa Zhao looked at Zhou Hao blankly.

He looked like that it didn't seem to be fake, and he felt a little helpless and anxious.

Looking at the old man's appearance, eighty percent of them have Alzheimer's disease.

Professor Zhang didn't tell him about this.

"Zhao Xiaohu, it's your grandson."

Grandpa Zhao waved his hand funny, "What grandson, my son is only 6 years old, where did I come from." ”

Zhou Hao frowned, if grandpa couldn't remember who Zhao Xiaohu was, then there was no way to know where Zhao Xiaohu went.

There is no way to know Ai Wan's whereabouts.

Just when he was in a hurry, the aunt next door came over to help Grandpa Zhao.

Seeing Zhou Hao, he was stunned for a moment, and then looked at him very vigilantly, "This gentleman, who are you looking for?" ”

"Zhao Xiaohu, they didn't go to class today, Professor Zhang asked me to come over and have a look."

"Little tigers, they? They weren't at home. ”

"So do you know where they went?"

"I don't know."

"Do you know Ai Jing, Teacher Ai?" Zhou Hao said.

"Yes, she's been here this morning."

There's a clue.

Zhou Hao said excitedly: "Do you know where she went?" ”

"Went up the mountain."

Mountain?

Zhou Hao looked at the mountain behind the Zhao family, and the lush and dense woods covered everything in the mountain.

The aunt saw Zhou Hao's plan at a glance and hurriedly stopped him.

"Young man, you want to go up the mountain to find Teacher Ai."

Zhou Hao was silent.

The eldest aunt sighed, "Grandpa Zhao was still awake when Teacher Ai came, and he showed Teacher Ai the way. ”

Zhou Hao remained silent.

"Young man, I believe Auntie, Teacher Ai can do it alone."

After speaking, he forcibly left Zhou Hao with Grandpa Zhao.

Let him be patient and wait for Teacher Ai to come back.

The rain outside was dripping, and in a short time, it turned into a violent storm.

The aunt's expression also changed from leisurely at the beginning to anxious.

It stands to reason that Mr. Ai shouldn't have been back for so long.

Outside the door, in addition to the rustle of the branches in the wind, the aunt also heard the footsteps and stood up excitedly.

"Someone is coming, could it be Xiaohu and Teacher Ai?"

Because the rain is getting heavier and heavier, you will even be blown by the rain when you sit in the outhouse.

So, the three of them went into the back room together.

Ai Qian went to find Zhao Xiaohu and them, and everyone had a preconceived idea that Zhao Xiaohu was back, and Ai Qian was also back.

It's a pity that only the three Zhao Xiaohu brothers came back, and there was no Ai Xuan.

They haven't discovered this yet.

"Where did you go this morning, I didn't hear from you for a long time, and the teachers at the school were in a hurry."

When Zhao Xiaohu was very young, his parents had already gone out to work, and his aunt treated them as if they were her own.

Looking at the three of them's soaked clothes, there are obvious mud spots, and their hair is also messy, and it hurts.

"We went up the mountain to collect medicine today, but the rain became heavier and heavier, fortunately we found a cave to hide from the rain, and finally saw that the rain stopped, and when we came out, we found that we were lost."

The second child continued with Zhao Xiaohu's words, "As a result, we didn't find the way down the mountain, it was raining again, and we don't remember where the cave is." ”

The third child followed the second child's words, "We can only go on forever." ”

Although the aunt was distressed, she didn't forget to teach them a lesson, "It's raining so hard and you still go to pick herbs, thanks to your good luck, otherwise, you will be miserable." ”

The third child looked at the fierce appearance of the eldest aunt, hid behind Zhao Xiaohu in fear, and said timidly: "The farm work has been done, we want to pick some herbs to supplement the family." ”

"Where's Mr. Ai?" Zhou Hao frowned, "Where is Teacher Ai?"

Teacher Ai?

The three brothers looked at Zhou Hao with a confused expression.

Where is Teacher Ai, how will they know.

The four of them looked at Zhou Hao, who was exuding cold air all over his body, and they were terrified in their hearts.

They all know the tall and handsome man in front of them, and he is Mr. Ai's boyfriend.

When they saw him, they basically walked with Teacher Ai and talked and laughed with her.

Seems gentle, approachable and easy to get along with.

However, Zhou Hao's usual real state is not like this.

How can those high-minded and arrogant students in the company be gentle.

"Ai, Ai, Mr. Ai?" Zhao Xiaohu plucked up his courage, "Teacher Ai is not with us." ”

After speaking, the aunt looked at the pouring rain outside, and her heart became anxious.

She originally thought that Teacher Ai came back with Zhao Xiaohu.

"Didn't you really see Teacher Ai?" The aunt asked, "You didn't go to school in the morning, and Teacher Ai was afraid that something would happen to you, so she went up the mountain to look for you." ”

The three brothers glanced at each other, "We really didn't see Teacher Ai. ”

The third child suddenly exclaimed, causing everyone to look over.

"Teacher Ai won't take the same path we used to take to collect medicine."

"Oh, we've already changed routes, and it's impossible for Teacher Ai to find us."

"That way, how to go?" Zhou Hao had a gloomy face.

The rain was getting heavier outside, and Professor Zhang said she didn't bring an umbrella.

The little girl is not Zhao Xiaohu, it is impossible for them to find a place to shelter from the rain so easily.

Perhaps, somewhere in the mountains right now, it is raining.

Thinking of this, Zhou Hao's heart felt a dull pain.

Zhao Xiaohu also realized the seriousness of the matter, and felt that he had shown Zhou Hao the way.

Looking at the back of Zhou Hao leaving, the three brothers became even more anxious.

"Big brother, should we go to find Teacher Ai together?" The second one proposed.

This proposal was immediately rejected by the aunt.

"When Teacher Ai is found, you are lost again, what should I do?"

"We know the way, and we won't get lost." Not to be outdone, Zhao Xiaohu said the reason.

The aunt directly gave Zhao Xiaohu a fried date.

"Oops." Zhao Xiaohu hugged his head and wailed, "What are you doing beating me?"

Auntie has been farming since she was sensible, and her hand strength is not ordinary.

"I'm just going to beat you unconscious, be obedient, don't you go out?"

"Then what can we do for Teacher Ai?" The third asked timidly.

What Mr. Ai has experienced, they have an unshirkable responsibility.

"You just stay here obediently, I'll go and cook brown sugar water for Teacher Ai."

The aunt sighed as she walked, "Such a delicate girl, to go through this, is really sinful." ”

Zhou Hao followed the path pointed out by Zhao Xiaohu and looked at both sides seriously.

When they walked to the place where Zhao Xiaohu and they were collecting medicine, they didn't see Ai Qi.

Zhou Hao's heart sank to the bottom.

Standing in place, this mountain is very big, looking for it like this, knowing that it is very troublesome to find the road, not to mention that now you have to look for it in confusion.

A faint shout evoked Zhou Hao's hope.

It was faint, but he could still hear it at once, it was Ai Xuan's voice.
