Siheyuan: Relieve stress and relieve worries

Chapter 697 Xiaowu Leaks Secret
Wang Zhan was coaxing his sister to sleep when he suddenly sneezed and muttered, "Who is thinking of me? Could it be Blind Chen? Impossible, he doesn't have time to think of me."

The younger sister said dissatisfiedly: "Brother, I am so sleepy, let's go to sleep."

"Go to bed, go to bed." Wang Zhan turned off the lights and went to bed.

Early the next morning, Wang Zhan got up in a hurry. He didn't prepare lunch last night. After washing up, he rushed into the kitchen. In addition to making some porridge and fried eggs, he started to prepare lunch. Just after he finished, Wang Li's voice came from the backyard.

Wang Zhan went to the backyard to wait for the little ancestor to wake up, took her to the restaurant for breakfast, and then hurriedly took his sister's schoolbag and lunch box and went out.

As soon as he reached the intersection, he saw He Yushui standing there. Wang Zhan smiled and greeted him, saying, "Good morning, Yushui."

He Yushui said: "I'm sorry, I didn't expect my brother to be so impulsive."

Wang Zhan said as he walked, "It's okay, it's okay, it's okay once the misunderstanding is resolved, let's go quickly, we're going to be late."

The three of them hurriedly ran towards the school. Fortunately, they arrived at the school just as the bell rang.

Xiao Wu watched Wang Zhan and his sister come in, stuffed a date cake in his hand, and handed it to Wang Li. Wang Li smiled and said, "Thank you, brother Xiao Wu."

"My mother made this. Let your sister try it." Xiaowu said, then turned his head away.

The first class was math class, also taught by a female teacher. The students listened attentively, as did Wang Zhan, who took notes from time to time. When he turned around, he saw his sister had put the picture book on the desk and was reading it seriously.

At noon, Xiaowu, Xiaosi, He Yushui, and Wang Zhan and his sister were eating around Wang Zhan's table, discussing what happened at the skating rink that day.

There are physical education classes in the afternoon, but the sports programs are very simple. They are either exercises, running, long jump, or standing long jump. There is nothing fancy in this elementary school, so there are only those few sports in class.

After school, Xiaowu and Xiaosi went home obediently today. Apart from Shichahai, they really had nowhere else to go, and their families would not allow them to go if it was too far. He Yushui and Wang Zhan also went back to Keyuan.

When passing by Old Man Zhang's shop, He Yushui took a special look inside. The old lady was smiling happily and accompanying Erya. Old Man Zhang seemed very happy as well, working hard beside him. Unfortunately, there were only two customers.

Wang Zhan asked, "What are we having for dinner?"

He Yushui said: "It's all fine with me. I feel like I've gained weight from eating at your place."

Wang Li said, "Let's eat some mutton. Fried mutton with cumin flavor."

"That's called cumin lamb. OK, add some fry-fried eggs and we're done." Wang Zhan said.

During dinner at night, He Yushui talked about her brother, saying that someone in the courtyard spread bad things about her and Wang Zhan, which was why Sha Zhu got angry.

Wang Zhan smiled and said, "Your brother is really something. How old are we? What can possibly happen? Your brother believes this?"

He Yushui said: "My brother is a stubborn person and he believes everything he hears. There is nothing I can do about it."

Wang Zhan said nonchalantly: "It's okay, I don't take it to heart."

After the three of them finished their meal, He Yushui went home with her schoolbag on her back. As soon as she reached her doorstep, she heard an old lady's voice saying, "Yushui, you've gained weight. Your brother must have given you a lot of food, right?"

He Yushui was startled at first, then turned around and saw that it was the deaf old lady in the backyard, and said, "Hello, ma'am, that's impossible, I haven't seen him for a whole day, and I still have homework to do, so I'll go back to the house first."

After that, he quickly opened the door and entered the house, then locked the door. Wang Zhan and his sister went to school and came home as usual. In his free time, he just read books at home and accompanied his sister, and never went out. But what Wang Zhan didn't know was that there were already two groups of people outside frantically looking for him, and later another group of people joined the ranks of looking for him.

The first group of people came from the military compound. The parents of the rescued children had asked people to inquire about this child.

The second group was Boss Jin, with Sun Liuzhi and Zhang Pizi, who were also looking for Wang Zhan in the streets and alleys as well as in major temple fairs and markets.

The third wave of people were the ones who were going to surround the children of the army. They heard that the army was looking for a child. The leader thought of what happened that day. That day, Wang Zhan, Xiaowu and Xiaosi knocked down those children. They saw it clearly. They immediately realized that it was the child who tipped off and ruined their plan.

But unfortunately, Wang Zhan never went out. There were so many children aged eight or nine in the whole city of Beijing. After searching for more than a month, there was no news at all.

Everything was normal, but things often go against one's wishes. The bad thing was Xiaowu's fault. Xiaosi was still very smart. After the last incident, he followed Wang Zhan's advice and stayed away from Shichahai. But Xiaowu, the young man, didn't believe it. One day, while Xiaosi was not in the yard, he took the other children in their courtyard to Shichahai to fish for frogs.

After Xiao Si and his mother came back from shopping, they went to look for Xiao Wu. Uncle Xiao said, "Xiao Si, Xiao Wu is not with you? I saw that all the children in the yard were gone, and I thought you went with them too."

When Xiao Si heard that they had gone out to play, he asked, "Uncle Xiao, do you know where they went?"

"How would I know? I guess he's only been to Shichahai. He hasn't been to other places." Uncle Xiao replied casually.

When Xiao Si heard this, he felt bad. He told him that he was not allowed to go, but this stubborn guy insisted on going. Xiao Si didn't even say hello to Uncle Xiao and ran straight to Shichahai.

Before we even got out of Majialou Hutong, we saw Xiaowu and a few other kids standing on the river bank fishing for frogs.

Xiao Si walked quickly towards the river bank. After just a few steps, he saw from another direction that the young man from the leading unit that day was running towards Xiao Wu with a few people.

Even if he ran over, he would not be in time, but he did not avoid it. He walked slowly towards Xiaowu. The young man ran up to Xiaowu and said, "I finally found you. How long have you not been here? Where have you been?"

Xiaowu turned around and knew something was wrong. He saw the young man from the army he had met that day and said, "Why are you looking for me? I'm fishing for frogs."

The young man said, "My name is Li Hongjun. Thank you for tipping us off that day. By the way, where are the other two?"

Xiaowu was stunned at first, and just as he was about to speak, Xiaosi came over and said, "My name is Xiaosi, his name is Xiaowu, and we don't know the other one either, we just met him when we were skating."

Xiaowu stared at Xiaosi, but he knew at this moment that he could only listen to Xiaosi.

Li Hongjun said: "Then do you know where he lives? Or which school he goes to?"

Xiao Si shook his head and said, "We really don't know. We didn't know what happened that day."

Li Hongjun was very disappointed, but the two children did not say anything and just stood aside. It was probably because that child led them here.

But Li Hongjun said: "No matter what, I thank you."

Xiao Si quickly said, "No, we really don't know what's going on. We still have to go home. Big brother, goodbye."

After saying that, Xiao Si took Xiao Wu and the children home.

Li Hongjun was a little disappointed that he didn't find the child, so he took his people back to the compound.
