Rebirth in a Book: The Road to Breakthrough
Chapter 45: Xixi in Danger (Part )
Yu Dazhuang finished his meal in a hurry and ran straight home with big strides. It was already mid-afternoon.
Meanwhile, Yu Congcong had woken up from her nap. She sat in the yard bored, looking up at the sky, and started chatting with Hezi: "Hezi, is the development of this world based on my era?"
"Yes, host. That book is indeed written based on the background of your original world." The box's answer was concise and to the point.
"Oh, that's not good. There will be a terrible famine in the next few years. No, I have to start storing food. That period of history was really tragic. Many people will lose their lives due to hunger." Whenever Yu Congcong thought of that period of history, she couldn't help but feel panic. Her face turned pale, and her hands clenched unconsciously, as if she wanted to grasp some sense of security.
"Congcong, Dad is back." Yu Dazhuang hurried back home. When he saw his daughter sitting quietly in the yard in a daze, seemingly unaware of his return, he slowly walked to Yu Congcong and called softly with a little helplessness.
"Dad, you're back. Are you hurt?" Yu Congcong's eyes were originally looking into the distance empty. When she heard the voice, she turned her head sharply and saw the familiar face appear in front of her. Her face immediately bloomed with a happy smile and she said happily. She was so excited that she was about to jump up. When Yu Dazhuang saw this, he was startled and quickly reached out to hug Yu Congcong tightly in his arms.
"Have you forgotten that you are injured?" Yu Dazhuang frowned, his tone full of helplessness and concern.
"Hey, Dad, I'm happy that you're not hurt." Yu Congcong smiled happily. The smile on that little face was like a blooming flower, exuding innocence and joy.
"You, you." Yu Dazhuang looked at his daughter's innocent smile, and a happy smile appeared on his face involuntarily. He slowly squatted down and gently stroked Yu Congcong's little head. Yu Congcong danced happily in Yu Dazhuang's arms, twisting her body constantly and making a happy giggle.
"Dad, take me to find Grandpa Nan! I miss him." Yu Congcong asked happily. Her little face turned red with excitement. She grasped the corner of Yu Dazhuang's clothes tightly with both hands and shook her body.
When Yu Dazhuang heard his daughter's words, he slowly stood up. The smile on his face disappeared, and he frowned, looking a little worried. Yu Congcong keenly noticed the change in Yu Dazhuang's attitude, and her heart couldn't help but "skimp". She blinked, her big eyes full of confusion and anxiety, and her hands unconsciously clenched.
"Dad, is Grandpa Nan sick? And is he seriously ill?" Yu Congcong's voice was tearful and his little body was trembling slightly.
"No, no, Yu Congcong, don't cry for nothing." Yu Dazhuang quickly reached out and gently patted Yu Congcong on the back, trying to comfort her.
"That was caused by bad people, wawawa." Lush tears rolled down like beads from a broken string. She cried and shook her little head.
"Not really. Hey, your Grandpa Nan is fine. He left to go on a mission." Yu Dazhuang sighed helplessly, holding Yu Congcong's shoulders with both hands.
"Ah, Grandpa Nan is not sick, nor is he dead. He just went on a mission?" Yu Congcong raised her head with crystal tears still on her face. She asked again uncertainly.
"Yeah, it's really okay." Yu Dazhuang nodded and answered affirmatively.
"Then Dad, why do you look so cautious? It makes me think too much." Yu Congcong pouted and complained dissatisfiedly.
"Dad, I was afraid that you would cry when you heard that Grandpa Nan passed away, but you ended up scaring yourself and crying." Yu Dazhuang looked at his daughter's adorable appearance and shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
"Where is your grandma?" Yu Dazhuang asked softly, with a hint of concern in his eyes.
"Grandma, I'm going to the vegetable garden." Yu Congcong answered obediently, her childish voice clear and pleasant.
"Well, I'll go take a look. You stay at home and are not allowed to leave the hospital, okay?" Yu Dazhuang said solemnly, his eyes serious yet full of love.
"I understand. I won't go out and will stay at home by myself." Yu Congcong nodded obediently, then watched Yu Dazhuang stride out.
Tiezhu's house, "Grandpa, what are you doing? Why are you staring at the cow?" Tiezhu blinked his curious big eyes and looked at his grandfather in confusion.
"Grandpa is checking to see if the cow can still produce milk. Your grandma Xiaocao said that Congcong has grown taller after drinking milk, and asked if the cow's lactation period can be extended. I am observing what cows eat to produce milk." Fu Youtian patiently explained to his grandson while stroking the cow's head.
"Really? Congcong has grown taller. That's great. Grandpa, you must increase the cow's milk production period." Tiezhu danced excitedly with a happy smile on his face.
"It's not that easy to fix. How can it be certain? Grandpa can't guarantee it. Well, what do you want?" Fu Youtian glared at his grandson unhappily, with a hint of anger in his tone.
"Nothing, I'm going to see Cong Cong." Tiezhu scratched his head and said with a silly smile.
"Go, go." Fu Youtian waved his hand and muttered, "This wife hasn't even been married yet, but he's already clinging to her. It's only been a short time since he came back, and he's already going to see her again." He shook his head helplessly.
"Congcong, where are you? I'm here to accompany you." Tiezhu shouted loudly before he even reached the door, his voice full of excitement.
"At home." A lush and crisp voice came from the house.
"Congcong, Wuzi just told me that Wang Gui and Li Hu were arrested, and Zhang Bao was dead. Fourth uncle and Wang Fu were rescued." As Tiezhu entered the house, he couldn't wait to say to Yu Congcong.
"Ah, Fourth Uncle and Wang Fu were rescued by someone. Who rescued them?" Yu Congcong asked anxiously with a look of worry on her face.
"I don't know." Tiezhu scratched his head and answered in a low voice. Hearing that Wang Fu had also escaped, Yu Congcong's heart tightened: Xixi is still in danger. She thought to herself.
I don't know if Fourth Uncle and Wang Fu are injured. Will they come to the village today to pick up Xiaonan? Yu Congcong frowned and fell into deep thought.
"Hezi, always pay attention to the dangerous fluctuations over Xixi." Yu Congcong silently instructed the system in his heart, with a hint of worry in his eyes.
"Okay, host. I'll always pay attention." The system's cheerful electronic voice sounded in her mind.
"Tiezhu, tell Wuzi and the others to pay more attention to things." Yu Congcong thought to himself. After so many instructions, he didn't believe that Wang Fu would still have the chance to take action.
"Okay, Wuzi and the others will go to the ancestral hall every day." Tiezhu nodded in response.
"By the way, Congcong, if there are people from other villages who want to adopt a child, please come and adopt the child tomorrow." Tiezhu suddenly remembered the news he heard today.
"Didn't the village say it was responsible? Why did they let people from other villages adopt the child?" Yu Congcong asked with a surprised look on her face.
"I don't know. It seems that an official in the county wanted to adopt a child. When he found out that we have a lot of children who need to be taken care of here, the word spread." Tiezhu scratched his head and said.
"Why does it feel so weird?" Yu Congcong always felt something was weird in her heart, but she couldn't tell what was weird.
As the sky gradually darkened, the villagers who were working outside returned home. Yu Dazhuang and Xiaocao also returned home in the afterglow before nightfall.
"Congcong, someone is coming from the outside village, let's go and see!" Tiezhu said as soon as he entered the house. At this time, Yu Congcong was taking medicine. She quickly finished the medicine, rinsed her mouth, and responded, "Okay." Seeing this, Tiezhu picked up Yu Congcong and walked out without saying a word. Yu Congcong hurriedly greeted Xiaocao: "Grandma, Tiezhu and I are going to the ancestral hall." The voice was still echoing in the yard, and the people had already gone outside.
At the entrance of the village, there was a constant stream of people. "Tiezhu, did the news spread so quickly? Why are there so many people?" Yu Congcong asked in surprise.
"I don't know. People outside are probably well-informed!" Tiezhu answered uncertainly.
"There's not enough to share among so many people." Yu Congcong frowned in confusion.
"Go to the ancestral hall quickly! There is a dispute over the hall!" a villager shouted.
"Go and have a look, Wuyi and his gang are fighting with people from another village."
"Hurry up, find the clan leader."
"Why are you looking for the clan leader? Look for the captain."
"Yes, yes, find the captain."
The villagers were talking about it and heading towards the ancestral hall. "Tiezhu, let's go take a look." Yu Congcong urged Tiezhu and quickened their pace to the ancestral hall.
"Let Xixi go." Wu Zi's angry voice came from not far away.
Wu Zi and his friends were desperately grabbing Xixi, while the couple was also desperately pulling Xixi, and both sides were fighting fiercely for Xixi. The villagers gathered around nervously, trying to persuade them anxiously and calm the chaos.
At this moment, the captain rushed into the yard from Yu Congcong like a whirlwind.
"Wu Zi, please let go first. Pulling like this will make Xixi's hand unbearable." The captain said solemnly with a dignified look on his face. Then, he turned around and said seriously to the couple: "Comrade, please let go first."
The captain's voice was deep and powerful, with an unquestionable majesty. His eyes were firm and steady, as if warning the couple that he would never tolerate any unfairness.
"Adoption requires the willingness of both parties. Besides, Xixi is already so old, she has the right to make her own choice." The captain once again solemnly said to the couple.
After hearing the captain's words, the couple hesitated for a moment, and finally slowly let go of Xixi's hand. Xixi took the opportunity to hide behind the captain, as if she had found a safe and reliable haven.
The captain walked steadily to Fu Yu who was concentrating on registering and asked softly, "Have the family information of these two comrades been registered?"
