"Okay." Jiang Ping responded.

looked at Zhu Xingguo with gentle eyes, and saw him sitting obediently on the edge of the fire pit and stirring firewood.

Look at Gu Huayue who was yawning, and Zhou Dongsheng who was looking directly at the flickering flames beside her.

It seems that the three children are doing well under Yanqu's care.

His eyes rolled slightly, looking at Zhu Yanqu.

But he didn't know what to say, he just smiled at her.

The snow fell again, and Xi Quan looked up at the air and exhaled heavily.

He glanced back at Zhu Yanqu and told him softly: "Don't go out in the near future, safety is important!" ”

Jiang Ping stood on the side, paying attention to Xi Quan's words and deeds.

Especially the expressions on his face and the eyes that always feel that something is hidden.

Not long after Xi Quan left.

Jiang Ping was reluctant to leave.

With every few steps, he would look back until the small figure was hidden behind the bamboo wall.

Zhu Xingguo buckled his forehead, always feeling as if he was being watched by something.

He walked over to his aunt, who was standing in a daze at the door.

His brows were furrowed, his eyes were full of doubt, and he asked in a low voice:

"Auntie, am I delusional? I always feel like someone is watching me all the time. ”

Zhu Yanqu stretched out his hand and put his hand on Zhu Xingguo's shoulder, and looked down at him with a smile: "Don't think about it, how can anyone keep staring at you." ”

"It's my delusion." Zhu Xingguo saw the snow drifting in front of him, and his stretched brows frowned again: "Auntie, I'm afraid of snow." ”

"Don't be afraid, we have firewood and food. No matter how bad it is, this place is close to the bamboo forest, and we can get through it if we go to planh some bamboo shoots. ”

Zhu Xingguo bowed his head, clasped his forehead innocently, and grinned: "Auntie, look, I'm a little stupid!" ”

Zhu Yanqu rubbed the back of his head, his hair grew fast, and he had to be repaired for a long time to keep his image neat.

When you get to this place, you don't have the tools of a shaver, and you don't know how to trim your hair.

Now Zhu Xingguo and Zhou Dongsheng's hair is like a little sea urchin.

Gu Huayue is better, she can tie all kinds of small braids.

Zhu Yanqu thought of a small pair of scissors in the object she had prepared when she fled, and she bent down to look at Zhu Xingguo.

"Xingguo, come."

Zhu Yanqu took Zhu Xingguo's wrist and sat down by the firepit.

Zhu Xingguo's eyes followed Zhu Yanqu's back, and he saw his aunt take out scissors and a small piece of blue-gray cloth from the back basket.

"Auntie, are you going to cut my hair?"

"Yes, it's cold, so I've cut it so you can wash your hair."

Zhu Yanqu's voice fell, and he saw the small expression on Zhu Xingguo's face,

"What, don't you believe my aunt?"

Zhu Xingguo stretched out his hand and rubbed his hair up to his shoulder, and looked at her with his white teeth: "Believe, of course believe." ”

"Auntie, ...... Does Dongsheng want to cut it? ”

Zhu Xingguo scratched his chin and tilted his body to look at Zhou Dongsheng who was carrying Gu Huayue.

Zhou Dongsheng, who heard the voice, turned around, his eyes full of doubts: "Call me?" ”

Zhu Yanqu's gaze went back and forth between the two of them, smiling shallowly, looking at the scissors in his hand.

"Cut your hair for both of you, you all had a head shaving master to trim your hair at home before, so today, I will reluctantly make it difficult for you to be a hair cutting master."

When Zhou Dongsheng heard this, he reached out and touched his long hair, and then looked at the scissors in Zhu Yanqu's hand, his eyes lit up slightly: "Okay, aunt." ”

Zhu Xingguo took a step forward, walked in front of Zhu Yanqu, and looked at her with his head tilted:

"Auntie, cut it for me first, practice your skills for you, and you can cut it for me and Dongsheng in the future."

Zhou Dongsheng came over and stood beside Zhu Yanqu very quietly, and his voice was very small: "Auntie, you cut it for me first." ”

There was a smile in Zhu Yanqu's eyes: "You check on the side, if it is not cut and needs to be repaired, tell me, is it okay?" ”

Zhou Dongsheng hesitated for a moment, and raised his head to look at Zhu Yanqu with a gentle smile.

The round eyes rolled slightly, and he agreed: "Yes." ”

-

After cutting the two of them, Zhu Yanqu hugged the snow and boiled it into water.

I saw that they were still showing each other, and there was still something that had not been cut.

Zhu Yanqu walked over and stood silently beside them.

Gu Huayue also came over, the little one, looking at the two elder brothers with a smile.

The milk cute voice went to ask Zhu Yanqu: "Auntie, do I need to cut my hair?" ”

Zhu Yanqu leaned over slightly, went to sort out the broken hair on Gu Huayue's sideburns, and said softly: "Huayue doesn't need to cut it." ”

"That's right, Huayue, you don't have to cut it, it's not beautiful if you cut it."

Zhu Xingguo and Zhou Dongsheng came over together, and they all gathered around Gu Huayue.

"Auntie, Dongsheng and I are fine."

Zhu Xingguo and Zhou Dongsheng looked at each other and smiled.

"That's good." Zhu Yanqu bowed his head, and turned his eyes to look at Gu Huayue, who still had some questions: "Fix your bangs." ”

"Okay!" The little girl was immediately overjoyed, and jumped lightly on the spot: "Thank you, auntie." ”

"Auntie, how long can we stay here?"

When Zhu Yanqu was repairing Gu Huayue's bangs, her soft and cute voice appeared in her ears.

After thinking about it, he replied to Gu Huayue: "How long can you stay, how long can you stay!" ”

-

Midnight.

There was a loud explosion in the tranquil atmosphere.

Zhu Yanqu was sitting by the fire, with a bamboo stick in his hand.

was so frightened by this sudden sound that his fingers were pierced by the tip of the bamboo.

And three children in their sleep.

They all opened their eyes in panic, they all got up, and they didn't care to put on their shoes.

trotted to Zhu Yanqu's side and snuggled.

"Auntie, is it the enemy attack?"

Zhu Xingguo asked in a suppressed voice, and when he asked, he also noticed that his aunt's finger was punctured and blood was bubbling out.

"Auntie, your hands are bleeding!"

Zhu Yanqu pulled out the barbs that were stuck in the flesh, and endured the pain to look at the three little ones with panic on their faces.

"It's fine." He smiled and comforted them.

"It's not the enemy attack, it's the bamboo in the back mountain that can't support the backlog of thick snow and exploded, it's okay, let's go to sleep!"

Zhu Xingguo frowned and looked at Zhu Yanqu, his voice was a little hoarse, and his eyes were slightly red: "Auntie." ”

Zhu Yanqu reached out to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes, and gently pinched his rosy cheeks.

"It's easier to crack your cheeks when you cry."

Zhu Xingguo nodded, raised the back of his hand, wiped away his tears, and looked at Zhu Yanqu with red eyes.

The cold wind was raging outside the bamboo house, and Zhu Yanqu looked at the scene outside from the crack, and saw a bright swaying light in the cold wind.

looked at the direction, it was irradiated from Xi Quan's house.

Under the light and shadow, a lonely figure looked long in the cold wind.

Zhu Yanqu was still a little puzzled, what was he doing in the middle of the night, he inevitably looked at it twice.

He walked with great steps, but in the heavy snow, a little slowly.

Zhu Yanqu retracted his gaze and didn't look to see if he was going in what direction.

As soon as I sat down on the straw bench, I heard footsteps outside.

This time, it was Zhu Xingguo who saw Xi Quan standing at the door in the gap of the bamboo house.

He was a little puzzled, and just as he was about to ask, he saw the man standing outside turn and leave.
