Early summer afternoon, cake shop.

The aroma of baking lingers in the air, freshly baked cakes and breads, long, round, square, large and small, each one looks soft and delicious.

Tang Xiaoou, who was wearing dark blue overalls, stood quietly in the middle of two rows of cake display cases. He held a wooden toy box in his small hands, and raised his round head.

The transparent cellophane used to hold the cupcakes refracts the bright light into colorful and dreamy colors, which attracts Xiaolian's attention.

Little lotus root's big jewel-like eyes exude curiosity about colors. He puts his feet up and tries to raise his head, his small body sways slightly, and lifts his upper body to look up again after his heels land on the ground.

Suddenly, a white hand passed by, picked up one of the cupcakes, and handed it to Xiaolian.

Xiao Ou's eyes widened unexpectedly, her long and curly eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings, she looked at the young lady who appeared with some uncertainty, and her reaction was a little dumbfounded.

This is the staff in the cake room. She just noticed this white-skinned, small, cute cub with a round face and innocent dog eyes. She smells like milk anytime, anywhere. cute light waves.

The little sister squatted down and said kindly: "Little friend, do you like this cupcake? Here it is for you."

Xiao Lotus looked at the cupcake with big eyes, blinked, and reacted a little slowly, and didn't reach out to pick it up.

He didn't pay much attention to the cake, he was paying attention to the transparent cellophane outside the cake.

Xiao Lotus shook her head, and said childishly, "Thank you sister, Xiao Lotus doesn't eat cakes."

Seeing his limp and cute appearance, the young lady's heart melted. She half-kneeled in front of him, looked at him at the same level, and pointed at the little toy in his hand jokingly: "What are you playing with? My sister can Would you like to have a look?"

Xiao Ou heard that the young lady was interested in toys, so she nodded, let go of one hand, and turned the small flat wooden box to show her.

The wooden box is very old, and the handwriting on the top is blurred, and the five characters "Three Kingdoms Huarong Road" can be vaguely seen.

There are ten rectangular and square movable wooden blocks in the wooden frame. Each wooden block was originally a human figure, but it has been rubbed beyond recognition, leaving only a little bit of paint color.

The upper right corner of the large square wooden block was originally a name, but now there is only one surname, Cao.

It can be seen that this wooden box of characters has been played with for a long time.

The young lady looked at this simple but somewhat difficult toy, and asked in surprise: "Little friend, can you play this?" She tried to move the small cube, but was blocked all of a sudden, unable to move the largest cube representing Cao Cao to the exit.

Xiaolian's little finger poked a rectangular wooden block in the air, and said softly: "Move this."

The young lady moved the rectangular wooden block according to what he said, and Xiao Ou directed her to move another small block up to make room for it, then moved another rectangular wooden block to the right, and then moved the small block back. Move another rectangular wooden block...

After a few steps, Cao Cao was successfully rescued.

The young lady raised her eyes in astonishment and looked at the soft and cute little bean sprouts in front of her. She was surprised that he could finish walking in such a short time. Huarong said: "Little friend, you are so smart."

Xiao Ou keenly noticed her sister's expression, it was no longer the dumb look just now, but the corners of her mouth were raised with some joy, her eyes showed happiness: "Xiao Ou has been playing for a long time."

"How old are you, three years old?" The young lady raised her hand to gesture for his height. She was taller than him almost squatting on the ground, and her hands and feet were also small. She looked like a small glutinous rice dumpling, which was unbelievable.

Before Xiao Ou could answer, she heard a familiar and bright voice from behind.

"Little lotus root?"

The kind call made Xiao Lotus raise her little feet, and like a puppy, she ran to the leg of a tall and thin boy with small steps, and hugged his leg with one arm, round and round. With her cheek pressed against his leg, she raised her head and called obediently, "Brother Xiao Ke."

Xiao Ke rubbed Xiao Ou's short, shattered black hair. Just now, he communicated with the salesperson at the counter about the address and contact information for receiving cakes, and as soon as he turned around, Xiao Ou came here.

In a few days, it will be the birthday celebration of all the members of Lantian Orphanage, the grandpa of the dean asked Xiao Ke to bring Xiao Lotus over to order a cake.

The young lady straightened up and asked with a smile, "Is this your brother? How old is he? How can he play Huarong Dao every day at such a young age? His color has faded from playing. And he cleared the level in just a few minutes, which is quite impressive."

Xiao Ke glanced at the worn-out toy in Xiaoou's hand. It wasn't that Xiaoou was discolored from playing with it, but it was already discolored when it was sent to the orphanage, and Xiaoou just found it out of a box of toys the day before yesterday. The baby must be like something , Hold it in your hand when you go out.

Xiao Ou heard the young lady boasting to brother Xiao Ke that she was great, so she shyly hid her face behind his legs, grabbed the trousers with her fingers and rubbed them lightly.

Xiao Ke's palm rested on the top of Xiao Lotus's hair, the child's temperature was high, and the head was also warm.He smiled and said to the little sister: "Our little lotus root is four years old, and it looks relatively small. It looks like three years old, right?"

Xiao Ou encircled her elder brother's hand with a little force, and rubbed her forehead against his leg, as if silently reminding him: Although Xiao Ou is small, she is still four years old.

The young lady understood, smiled and picked up the cup cake just now, and handed it to Xiao Ke: "This is for your brother, he is so cute."

Xiao Ke looked at the size of the cake and felt that he could accept it, so he took it instead of Xiao Lotus, and smiled gratefully: "Thank you."

He bent down and said to Xiao Ou: "My sister gave it to Xiao Ou, thank you, okay?"

Xiao Ou nodded gently, looked at the cute cupcake, then looked at her sister who smiled sweetly, and said softly, "Thank you sister."

"No thanks, come and play when you have time." The young lady waved her hand.

Xiao Ou shook the Huarongdao box in her hand, looking very cute and quiet.

After Xiao Ke walked out of the cake shop with Xiao Lotus in his arms, he pinched the tip of his round nose: "You still know how to pretend to be obedient, why aren't you so obedient at home?"

Xiao Ou hugged Xiao Ke's brother's neck with his backhand, and pressed his soft little cheek against his big cheek, and retorted softly: "Xiao Ou has always been very good, and he is also very good at home." Be good, repeated like a repeater, "Xiao Ou is very good, very good, very good!"

Xiao Ke patted his little butt with a smile, straightened the legs of his blue overalls, and said to him, "Got it, you are the best. Now that the cake has been ordered, shouldn't we go home?"

"Ah?" Xiao Ou raised her innocent and pitiful dog eyes, stared at Brother Xiao Ke eagerly, and confirmed in a soft voice: "Brother, are we going back now?"

Under the hot sun, he felt wronged instantly.

He likes the fragrant and sweet cake shop, the big road with cars passing by, the new clothes in the glass window, the shouting vendors and the strange but cute toys in their hands, even the falling stars The dark green sycamore leaves and the unnamed pink flowers delighted him.

Xiao Ou couldn't bear it, and didn't want to go back to the orphanage so soon. He lowered his head and fiddled with the little cake that the young lady gave him, feeling sad.

Xiao Ke smiled and made a big face at him: "I'm lying to you! My brother will take you to the playground in the shopping mall!" He hugged Xiao Tuanzi in his arms and rushed forward two steps.

Xiao Ou hugged her brother's neck, her big eyes immediately turned from cloudy to clear, and the sun was shining brightly.

Waiting for my brother to stand still, I kicked my legs in his arms: "Xiao Ou wants to tell grandma Xiao Ke that brother lied to Xiao Ou!"

In Xiao Ou's heart, the grandma in the orphanage is the authority. Any problems or troubles, big or small, can be resolved after telling grandma. Even grandpa listens to grandma.

Xiao Ke was dangling around with him in his arms, and was about to talk to him, when he saw crowds of people outside the shopping mall, lined up in several lines.

In particular, each adult holds or leads a child.

Xiao Ou also noticed those people, squinted her big eyes, wrinkled her small nose, and asked curiously, "Brother, what are you guys doing?"

Xiao Ke laughed and said: "Maybe it is to exchange children for delicious food, let's go and see. I will exchange you out!" He strode towards the mall with little lotus root in his arms.

Xiaolian's eyes slowly widened, can the children exchange for something delicious?

What about adults?

Wouldn't it be possible to replace it with something more delicious?

Xiao Ou quietly looked at brother Xiao Ke with big eyes that were always pure and harmless, thoughtfully.

Xiao Ke squeezed into the shopping mall with her little lotus root in her arms, and stood in front of the colorful posters to study the situation carefully.

A well-known TV station in the country is launching a variety show called "Zai Zai Going Forward", which is aimed at children aged three to six. Today is the last day of the audition.

The reward is a bit strange, it is actually to subsidize the lifelong education expenses of the children. Parents and children came from all directions in an endless stream, and the shopping mall was surrounded by water.

Xiao Ou didn't like so many people gathering together. He seemed to have too sensitive ears by nature.

He buried one ear in Xiao Ke's shoulder socket, covered the other ear with his small palm, looked at the complicated poster with big eyes, and looked at the lively adults and children talking next to him, feeling a little dazed.

Xiao Ke noticed Xiao Ou's dumbfounded appearance, and quickly coaxed him softly: "Does Xiao Ou not like this place? Then let's go." He was too busy watching the excitement, forgetting that Xiao Ou prefers a quiet environment, Damn it.

Xiao Ou leaned in Xiao Ke's arms, and as soon as she turned around, she was stopped by an excited strange uncle.

"Kid? You look so cute. Do you want to participate in our program audition? I am a staff member of the program team."

The staff smiled at Xiao Ou, showing the greatest enthusiasm for him.

He has been organizing auditions on the spot for the past few days. The first time he saw this kid, he was attracted by his pink, white and soft appearance. At this moment, he looked at the little cute boy's big eyes at a close distance, and he couldn't help it. I want to rub my soft, round face.

This child is simply a cutie who just walked out of a cartoon.

Xiao Ou was stunned, blinking her eyes, and slowly met Xiao Ke's brother's eyes in response, and the clear eyes emitted a weak signal for help.

This uncle is very enthusiastic, what should I do?

Xiao Ke changed hands with the child in her arms, and politely said to the staff: "I'm sorry, my brother is a bit shy, so it may not be suitable for you to participate in your program."

The staff was still enthusiastic and patiently lobbied: "Just show up today, and you can get a small red envelope. It is provided by our sponsor. The red envelope contains [-] yuan in cash and a [-]% discount coupon for the children's clothing section of the mall. You used to After taking the red envelope, you can immediately go to the children's clothing section to buy things. The things are not expensive, and you can buy some small dolls and clothes for a hundred yuan. Think about it, okay?" He smiled and said to Xiaoou, "Children, do you want to Don’t you want to let many, many people across the country see you? They will definitely like you very much.”

The staff's heart: Compared with the bratty kid who is noisy and wants to tear down the stage every minute, he really likes the cute, well-behaved and quiet little cute baby.

Xiao Ke was thinking about this "one hundred yuan cash and discount coupon", and he glanced at the Huarongdao box held in Xiao Ou's hand, the dark blue round-toed canvas shoes on his feet, as well as overalls and a white T-shirt.

All over her body, except for her panties, there is nothing that belongs to Xiaolian. They are all old things sent to the orphanage by kind people.

If he participated in auditions and got red envelopes in the past, would it be possible for Xiao Ou to be self-sufficient and make money to buy a new dress?

But if the dean knows, huh, huh, it will be necessary to close the door and have a meal.

Xiao Ke was a little confused.

However, Xiao Ou quickly responded to the strange uncle's words very rarely. Although his tone was still full of milk, his tone was extremely firm: "Xiao Ou wants to go."

"Huh?" Xiao Ke was very surprised, smiled at the staff, quickly turned around, and asked softly curiously against Xiao Ou, "Xiao Ou, why did you agree so quickly?"

Want to buy a small toy?Still want to buy new clothes?

However, Xiao Ou's words made Xiao Ke stop his rambling thoughts.

Xiao Ou hugged Xiao Ke's head and whispered in his ear: "Brother, Xiao Ou wants Mom and Dad to see Xiao Ou."

Just now he clearly heard the staff say "let many, many people across the country see you", that's why he wants to participate.

There was a feeling of being gently grabbed in Xiao Ke's heart.

It turned out that I thought I could find my parents.

Xiao Ke said: "Then brother will ask you clearly."

Afterwards, they communicated with the staff about the specific situation, and were led by the staff to approach the stage in the center of the hall.

Other parents who brought their children to sign up stared at the brothers curiously, especially the young and cute Xiaolian, who were amazed by his extraordinary cuteness.

At this moment, Xiao Ou looked like no one else was around, her bright eyes locked on the stage tightly.

There is a kid smiling and introducing himself.

"Hello everyone, my name is Minmin. I am five years old. I am a good runner and I can also play the flute. I can play the flute very well." After the child finished speaking, he raised the piccolo in his hand to his mouth.

The moment the piccolo's voice came out through the microphone, Xiao Ou was so frightened that he plunged into Xiao Ke's brother's neck, and quickly stuck a little finger into the outer ear to block it.

It's too jarring.

Xiao Ke quickly covered his little ears for him, and shook it gently, trying to ease his discomfort.

Xiao Ou tilted her head and saw that after the children put down the flute, a sister in a long red dress handed over a small red envelope.

The kid took the red envelope and threw himself into the arms of his mother by the stage like the wind.

Xiao Ou silently watched this scene.

In his clear and bright eyes, the mother's big smile was clearly printed. She kissed the child's forehead so hard, her face was full of sweetness.The children put their mouths close to their mother's ears, as if they were whispering something.

Xiao Ou thought, would his mother and father kiss him like this?

Kiss his little forehead very hard?

Pointing at the stage, Xiao Ou asked the strange uncle beside him weakly: "Can Xiao Ou find her parents there?"

The staff heard Xiaoke briefly talk about Xiaoou's situation just now, and immediately explained: "Yes, do you know that there are tens of thousands of people watching our live program now, and it is very likely that your parents will see it through the program. You. Even if they are not watching, maybe relatives and friends will see it and pass it on."

Xiao Ke understands that the probability is really low.But he will never pour cold water on Xiao Ou at this moment. He knows better than anyone how much Xiao Ou wants to find his parents.

He bent down to put Xiaolian down, squatted on the ground, combed Xiaolian's black hair with his fingers, looked at his big black eyes, and asked softly: "Xiaolian? Go and try, brother is waiting for you here .”

"Hmm! Little Lotus is going to find Mom and Dad."

Xiao Ou changed her usual slow-moving appearance, and for the first time showed unusual eagerness. She solemnly handed the small cake she was holding to brother Xiao Ke, and then handed her soft little hands to the strange uncle, and followed him. Go to the side of the stage.

Xiao Ke explained to the staff just now that they had to catch the bus, otherwise they would not be able to go back if they missed it, so the program team temporarily asked Xiao Ou to go on stage to introduce herself.

Xiao Ou stood by the stage and waited, and the strange uncle beside him squatted and pointed to a black machine and said, "That camera can capture you, and many people will see you on TV. After a while, you Just look at that. Don't be scared, okay? If you're scared, look at your brother."

Xiao Ou nodded bravely and solemnly. He is not afraid at all now. He looks at the camera with big eyes, and there is only one sentence in his little head: Mom and Dad, will you see Xiao Ou?

A child in front walked off the stage. Before the hostess invited him, Xiao Ou jumped onto the stage, rushing towards the hopeful front like a clumsy little penguin.

he thinks,

Xiaolian must find her parents.

because,

Xiao Ou also wants to be hugged and held high by her parents.
