Xia Liuqing happened to come over and saw Zhang Zhiwei staring at a wooden barrel. He wondered, "Aren't there fish in it? Why is he still staring at it?"

"What's going on? Aren't you going to clean up the fish? Or are you too old to clean up the fish? Don't tell me that. I will laugh at you if you tell me that."

What is all this?

Zhang Zhiwei said helplessly: "It's not like that. When I brought it over, there were two fish in it, but I don't know why the fish became only one. Just now when we were talking, one fish disappeared. Fish can't grow legs and run away. I saw it clearly."

There are clearly two objects, one big and one small, under the sun. They can't be shadows, right?
Xia Liuqing caught the fish and saw that there was only one fish in the bucket.

He looked carefully at the roadside and suddenly discovered something. After all, it should be impossible for Zhang Zhiwei to spill the water in the bucket with his strength.

They were all martial artists, but the water in the bucket spilled out, and they followed the trail of the water and looked outside the yard.

Xia Liuqing probably understood that the fish had been stolen.

I originally thought that there would be nothing in the wilderness, but I didn't expect someone to come and steal fish. The other party only stole one and left one for them.

If you say that the other party is kind, he is indeed very kind. If you say that the other party is not kind, it is indeed very immoral for him to steal their fish instead of fishing.

"Please pack up this fish first. I know where it went. I will go find it."

How could Xia Liuqing know about the fish he brought here?

Zhang Zhiwei was puzzled, so he picked up the fish and went to clean it up.

Xia Liuqing followed the location of the water stains and soon found himself outside the yard.

Looking at the dirty kid holding my fish with both hands, I didn't know what to do with it.

"Did you take our fish? Whose child are you?"

A sudden steady voice frightened the child so much that he hurriedly hugged the fish in his arms. When he was about to run, he was tripped by a stone under his feet and could only squat on the ground and watch vigilantly.

"I'm asking you a question. Whose child are you? Why are you in the wilderness? This is not a place for children to stay."

Except for experts like them, no one would stay in here.

Everyone will only think about taking care of their own safety, and there will be no other thoughts.

If a child sees that the adult in front of him does not leave, he will definitely argue with him and keep gesturing with his hands but cannot utter a word.

Xia Liuqing suddenly realized that the child in front of him might be a mute and could not speak.

While Xia Liuqing was struggling over what to do, Feng Tianci came over with a bucket and he also saw the child on the ground.

To be precise, not long after the child left, Feng Tianci felt that something was going to go wrong, so he came back with the bucket.

"What happened to Uncle Xia? What went wrong?"

"This kid took one of our fish away. It's a pity that the fool Zhang Zhiwei actually thought he had lost it on the road. He thought he was seeing things and was looking for the fish everywhere. This kid doesn't seem to be able to speak."

Feng Tianci looked at the child on the ground. The child hugged his knees and buried his head in his body.

He was very thin, probably only seven or eight years old.

"Look up, are you hungry?"

Perhaps because Feng Tianci's voice was so gentle, the little boy was no longer afraid and nodded vigorously. He was indeed very hungry, and because he was very thin, his facial features were almost sunken, and he didn't look like someone his age at all.

There was a stubbornness in his eyes. If Feng Tianci hadn't thought about his own similar experience, he would not have understood the little boy.

He was able to survive because he was saved by his mother-in-law. If they hadn't saved him, the little boy in front of him might have eaten all the tree bark on the mountain in half a year and would have died.

"If you want to eat, come with us and pick up the fish on the ground. You don't know how to handle it."

You can't eat it raw, right?

After Feng Tianci finished speaking, he turned around and left. Xia Liuqing was a little worried. He was not afraid that the children would eat, but he felt that such a young child would not be able to find their way.

Just when Xia Liuqing was worried, the child held the fish and followed Feng Tianci obediently without any complaints.

Xia Liuqing felt strange. This child was really smart. Since he could keep up, the rest of the things would be much easier to consider.

At least they didn't suffer any injustice, and they soon arrived home.

Mei Jinfeng had already cleaned it up, and Zhang Zhiwei cleaned the fish and placed them in a bucket nearby.

Seeing the fish in the child's arms, he wanted to go up and ask, but Xia Liuqing shook his head slightly.

After hearing what Feng Tianci said, the mother-in-law already liked the child very much. Besides, the child in front of her did look quite pitiful.

"We have a lot of fish. Let's catch another one."

Zhang Zhiwei started to pack up very consciously. Feng Tianci looked at the child's clothes and asked Zhang Zhiwei to take out a coat from the package and put it on the child first so that the clothes would not be so tattered.

After washing and putting on his coat, the child's face was revealed.

Although he tortured himself badly in the forest, it can be seen that the child's facial features are very delicate and he doesn't look like a child from a mountain village.

Zhang Zhiwei tried to communicate, "Do you remember who your parents are? Do you remember why you are here?"

The child nodded, then shook his head, looking sad.

He is a mute child who must have been deliberately abandoned here by his parents.

Everyone thought of this possibility.

"Can you write?"

The child nodded immediately. He squatted on the ground and wrote his name crookedly. Looking at the three big words "Lan Xiaoying", Feng Tianci suddenly thought of something.
"Since you can write, it means you have parents. Do you still want to go back to find your parents?"

Lan Xiaoying shook his head like a wave drum, and even hatred and fear burst out of his eyes.

Seeing the child's appearance, Feng Tianci understood that the child seemed to have been abandoned by his parents.

In this case, after having a full meal, they will decide whether the child should stay or go.

Soon the mother-in-law prepared the meal. Xia Liuqing had already prepared a large table. Fortunately, the surface of the table was not damaged, so he cleaned it up and nailed a few nails on it, making it barely suitable for eating.

Everyone sat together. The child held chopsticks in his hand, not daring to pick up the delicious food in front of him, but he couldn't help drooling.

It seems that he had received a very good education in the past, which left traces of this education in his bones. He has never broken the rules and is considered a very good child. (End of this chapter)
