Chapter 148 Going up the mountain to collect herbs
After dinner, Madam Zhan prepared things for moon-viewing and placed them at the door.
Afterwards, everyone found a good spot in the courtyard and sat together to admire the moon.
The moon on the fifteenth of the lunar month is very round and beautiful.
Yoyo lay leisurely on the recliner, her little feet dangling and swinging, "Wow, Yueyue is so round and beautiful."
The uncles and brothers fed the little guy fruit, and he ate it one after another, looking as comfortable as a "little emperor." Everyone was happy to serve this obedient and soft little emperor.
"Come on, my dear little niece, say hello to the brothers and sisters in the live stream."
Suddenly, Zhan Juzhou, holding a camera and with the live stream on, walked over to YoYo, squatted down, pointed the camera at YoYo, and asked him to greet the fans in the live stream.
Ever since Zhan Juzhou showed off his beloved niece, his fans have been begging him to show her to everyone.
Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and he is going live to celebrate with his fans. It's a good opportunity for them to see his darling niece and satisfy his own sense of accomplishment.
As soon as YoYo entered the scene, the barrage of comments exploded, with a barrage of messages pouring out like arrows.
[Ahhhhhh, isn't this my dream daughter? She's so young, yet she already looks like a heroine from a novel!]
My idol's family genes are truly amazing.
[Where can you find a quick and easy delivery, baby? Say goodbye to your parents and come to your new mom.]
What color burlap sack does your baby like?
No way, I want my son to be a domineering CEO.
【My dear in-laws, I'll have my son go and cram on novels right now.】
With looks like that, my son will be completely captivated!
I'm going to train my son to be a domineering CEO.
……
Yoyo can't read, let alone understand what the comments are saying, but she waves her chubby little hands in a cute, innocent voice, "Brothers and sisters, happy Mid-Autumn Festival~"
As soon as he finished speaking, the comments section went wild again.
Seeing the many inappropriate comments in the comment section, Zhan Juzhou quickly turned the camera back to himself.
Zhan Juzhou's face was filled with pride, he kept showing off, and his eyes were shining brightly.
The family was laughing and having fun.
Before long, the moon was no longer visible from this spot. Yoyo panicked and ran out of the manor, with everyone following behind.
Not far from the manor, a small figure was pressing something to the ground, holding a sharp knife in his hand.
The knife rose and fell in his hand, stabbing again and again at the figure he had pinned to the ground. When it was pulled out, bright red blood splattered, clearly visible in the moonlight.
Finally, the small figure threw the knife at the figure on the ground, the knife plunging into the figure's head, and then resolutely turned and left.
Yoyo was eager to see the moon, but there were obstacles blocking her view, so she couldn't see it.
However, Zhan Guiting witnessed this scene.
Zhan Guiting strode forward, scooped up the little dumpling that was still walking forward, and walked back.
"Go home and sleep."
"Daddy, it's still early, I want to see Yueyue," the little guy said in his childish voice.
"Big brother, it's still early. Oh, you're not going to bed this early, are you?" Zhan Jinxi asked, puzzled.
"Big brother, it's only nine o'clock." Zhan Juzhou had already turned off the live stream and handed his phone to Zhan Guiting to take a look.
"I said I'm going back, so I'm going back!" A hint of anger flashed in Zhan Guiting's eyes.
I don't know who was so reckless as to commit murder in the Yiyuan Villa District!
After settling Yoyo in, Zhan Guiting went to the scene of the incident, only to find that the scene had been cleaned up without a trace, as if what had just happened was something Zhan Guiting had imagined.
However, he was 100% certain that a murder had indeed occurred here, and the murderer was likely a seven or eight-year-old child.
The following day, the holiday ended, and the uncles went to work or school, while Grandpa Zhan and Grandma Zhan returned to their old house.
YoYo was supposed to go to kindergarten, but the little one said she didn't want to go. Today she planned to go up the mountain to buy some medicinal herbs.
She used up all her Chinese herbs when she caught the evil spirit last time, so she needs to hurry up and collect some more so that she won't have to worry about it in an emergency.
Without hesitation, Qin Yimo agreed and pestered Youyou, saying that she wanted to go with him too, otherwise he wouldn't feel at ease.
Yoyo didn't want Qin Yimo to go because it was too dangerous, so she whine and begged.
Qin Yimo quickly softened and agreed to Yoyo's request not to go, but ten bodyguards had to go with Yoyo to protect her safety.
Yoyo readily agreed.
The little one skipped and hopped out the door, humming a tune, only to find the triplets standing at the door, seemingly waiting for someone.
Wait, didn't the older brothers go to school?
“Going up the mountain to collect herbs is too dangerous. We’ll go with you.” Zhan Jingwen leaned casually against the wall, his voice cold, but his heart was filled with worry.
“That’s right, from now on we will be your guardians,” Zhan Jingyang said.
"Protecting my younger sister is one reason, and not wanting to go to school is another."
Zhan Jingxi held a large bottle of pure milk in his left hand and a giant seafood bun in his right, eating heartily while not forgetting to speak the truth.
Zhan Jingyang and Zhan Jingwen glared at Zhan Jingxi.
Zhan Jingxi sensed the hostility, looked at his brothers, and blinked his big eyes.
Why are you angry? I'm just telling the truth!
"Let's go, brother." The little guy skipped and hopped ahead.
Zhonghuaishan
The little guy walked briskly ahead, carrying a light sack of cattle feed on his small shoulders, ready to collect herbs.
Before leaving home, Yoyo forgot to take the bamboo basket for holding Chinese herbs. On the way, she saw an aunt feeding cows, and there happened to be this burlap sack lying at her feet, so Yoyo bought it.
The triplets followed behind, panting.
If they had known it would be this tiring, they wouldn't have come.
"Brothers~ Are you tired?"
Suddenly, a soft, babyish voice came from ahead.
Upon hearing the "yoyo" sound, the triplets immediately perked up, full of energy, and ran briskly to their sister's side.
"Not tired, little sister, we're not tired at all." Zhan Jingyang wiped the sweat from his forehead, but his mouth remained stubborn.
"I'm not tired." Zhan Jingwen remained outwardly calm, holding his breath to keep himself from catching his breath.
Zhan Jingxi had a miserable expression on his face. Ugh, he wanted to go home; climbing the mountain was too tiring.
