After lunch, Mo Wenpei and Qiao Changhong were in a hurry to get back to town.

They came back mainly to see Qiao Qiao, and seeing that she was alright, the two of them naturally rushed back.

On the way back, he brought two rabbits and ten wild eggs, and also gave Qiao Xiaoyun fifty wild eggs.

As for the rabbit, she didn't mention it. She knew Qiao Xiaoyun wasn't very good at cooking, and she didn't know how to handle the rabbit either. She decided to wait until Qiao Xiaoyun came back and figure out what to do.

Anyway, there were still ten rabbits left, and Grandma Qiao had already distributed them to each of the five families, two rabbits each, and fifty eggs to each family.

Whether to take it with you or leave it in the countryside is entirely up to you.

The eldest son, Qiao Changqing, received his share directly from his grandmother.

Mo Wenpei thought she would let her parents try something new, so she took the rabbit back with her. As for the wild eggs, she didn't take all of them, since they wouldn't be short of eggs.

The two boys come back once a week, and with Qiao Qiao also there, it's fine to leave food for them.

Qiao Qiao escorted the two back in the courtyard, and was even held in Mo Wenpei's arms and teased a little.

As usual, I wanted to coax her back to town to stay with me for a few days.

She used to do this all the time, though it rarely succeeded, but she always made sure to do it before leaving.

"How about Qiaoqiao goes back to stay with your second aunt for a couple of days? Without Qiaoqiao, your second aunt is too lonely, and it's not warm enough to sleep at night."

Qiao Qiao hugged her neck and kissed her. Unlike before, when she would shake her head like a rattle drum, she said in a soft voice, "Qiao Qiao, we'll go next time."

She just got back and wants to spend more time at home with her dad and grandma.

"Alright." Mo Wenpei smiled with some regret and bent down to put the person down.

He patted her head, which seemed particularly sleepy, and then turned to instruct his two sons.

"You two should also listen to your grandma at home, take good care of your little sister, and stop running around outside all day long. Help out with the chores around the house!"

Qiao Jing nodded, while Qiao Kun pursed his lips, reluctantly nodding before Mo Wenpei's slap came.

Seeing Qiao Kun's expression, Mo Wenpei sneered: "Don't think I don't know just because I'm in town. I'll ask your grandma when I get back."

As he spoke, another slap came at him, but he forcefully pulled it back.

Because Qiao Kun suddenly picked up Qiao Qiao, whom she had just put down.

Mo Wenpei was afraid of accidentally hurting her little niece, so she had no choice but to give up.

He rolled his eyes at his youngest son, then smiled gently and lovingly at Qiao Qiao before leaving with Qiao Changcai.

"Third brother, please put me down." Qiao Qiao rested her head on Qiao Kun's shoulder and whispered.

She felt very sleepy, a little dizzy, and her consciousness was blurred.

Qiao Kun kissed him before putting him down.

Qiao Qiao didn't even look at her brothers. After seeing Qiao Changcai and Mo Wenpei off, she went back to her grandmother's room to sleep.

She doesn't have her own room now, and Qiao Changdong didn't have his own room after he got married either.

When Qiao Changdong was at home, she slept in the room with his brothers.

When Qiao Changdong wasn't home, she couldn't sleep with Chen Yulian, so she slept in Grandma Qiao's room.

Now that her older brothers have returned, she didn't go to sleep in their room, but instead went to Grandma Qiao's room.

Grandma Qiao's house was quite simple.

Apart from a bed, there were only two large trunks and an old table in the middle of the room, on which sat a small winnowing basket containing needles and thread.

Grandma Qiao's bed was made by a carpenter when she married Grandpa Qiao. The frame is made of solid wood, and the bed has springs in the middle.

The bed legs were also very high, reaching up to Grandma Qiao's thighs.

This height is hardly friendly to Qiao Qiao.

She stuck her little bottom up on the edge of the bed and tried to climb up for a while, but she couldn't. In frustration, she could only lie down on the edge of the bed with her arm to sleep.

She was so tired.

I was so tired that it felt like I had a battery inside my body, and that battery was running out of power.

When Fu Yu followed her to Grandma Qiao's door, this was the scene she saw.

The little girl was lying on the edge of the bed, her whole body was about to fall to the ground.

Fu Yu instinctively wanted to run over and catch it, but when she moved, she realized that her leg was still in a cast and the leg that had stepped out was the injured one.

The sudden movement made him lose his balance and fall to the ground.

But ignoring the intense pain in his leg, he turned and called out, "Uncle Qiao, Uncle Qiao..."

Qiao Changdong was squatting by the well, processing the rabbit skin that Grandma Qiao and Mo Wenpei had just gutted.

In his early years, when he wasn't doing anything productive, he met a hunter and, out of curiosity and amusement, followed him for a while.

I learned from him how to separate animal fur from flesh and how to preserve the fur.

Seeing that he suddenly had so many rabbits at home, he figured that once he skinned them all, he could make a rabbit fur patchwork jacket for his daughter.

Hearing Fu Yu's voice, he looked over and saw him fall down at Grandma Qiao's door.

"What's going on? If you need anything, just call me, or you can call those guys over there too."

Qiao Changdong frowned, got up, quickly washed his hands in the bucket next to him, and walked over.

Just as she was about to help him up, she followed his gaze and saw Qiao Qiao lying on the floor inside the room, and her expression changed drastically.

He didn't care about Fu Yu on the ground anymore and turned to run into the house.

"Good boy, good boy."

He thought Qiao Qiao had simply fallen, but when he picked her up after entering the room, he found that she was limp and unresponsive.

"My darling!" Qiao Changdong shook his daughter, who was so soft and limp in his arms, as if she had no bones. His face was pale and his voice was trembling. "Don't scare your dad."

But all he got in response was Qiao Qiao's slightly flushed face.

Qiao Changdong's world has collapsed.

Qiao Qiao was unconscious for a full day and night after the fall.

"Why is this happening? I clearly... I clearly had it checked."

"I took her with me and had everything checked, so why did this happen?"

"The doctor also said that all her physical indicators were very good, really very good, so why is this happening?"

"Sister, believe me, really, that's what the doctor told me."

Squatting at the door of the ward, Qiao Changdong clutched Qiao Xiaoyun's sleeve, completely disoriented, his voice choked with sobs and his tone incoherent.

It was a man struggling to suppress his confusion and fear, but still unable to control himself, like a male beast about to lose his cubs, filled with sorrow and despair.

Qiao Xiaoyun's eyes were red, and tears streamed down her cheeks.

Mo Wenpei, who was standing next to her, also turned her gaze away and silently shed tears.
