Daddy Academy

Chapter 2711 Don't Panic The Sun Sets and the Moon Shines
"We're here, that's your mother's house!"

Xiaobai pointed to a three-story building outside the car and said to Xiaoliu.

Xiaoliu also recognized the house; it was her mother's home.

Zhang Tan stopped the car and just as he opened the door to the back seat, Xiaobai had already pushed the door open and jumped out of the car first. Then she opened her arms and helped the little friends get out one by one, like a competent little sister.

Zhang Tan turned his gaze to the three-story building. Under the eaves of the first floor, there were clothes racks with clothes hanging out to dry. However, the door was closed and it seemed that no one was at home.

He took a few steps forward, knocked hard on the door a few times, and asked, "Is anyone home?"

The house was silent and no one responded.

Zhang Tan knocked a few more times and waited for a moment, but still no one answered.

He turned around and said to the children, "No one is home. Maybe he went to work in the fields and hasn't come home yet. Let's wait and see."

Xiao Liu looked up at the sky with some worry. At this time, the sun was about to set and landed on the top of the mountain. In less than half an hour, it would completely disappear below the horizon.

"We have to wait for Xiaoliu's mother to come back. She hasn't found her mother yet, so we can't leave." Xiaobai said firmly.

"We won't go back until we find Xiaoliu's mother." Xiaomi's expression was extremely determined.

Gulu gulu gulu...

Everyone glanced at Liliu.

Liuliu felt a little embarrassed, so she laughed awkwardly to ease the awkwardness. She was a little hungry, and her stomach was rumbling.

"It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter if we're a little hungry. We must find Xiaoliu's mother." Liuliu said.

Everyone nodded and comforted Xiaoliu, telling her not to worry and that she would definitely find her mother today.

"But the sun is about to set and you still have to go home." Xiao Liu whispered, looking anxious.

Xiao Bai said loudly, "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. The moonlight will light up the way and take you to where you want to go. We will wait here and we will definitely wait for your mother. Your business is our business."

Everyone continued to wait at the door of the house. With so many people coming at once, it finally attracted the attention of the neighbors next door.

An old lady from the house next door came out and stared at them in confusion. She walked a few steps closer and saw so many children. The vigilance in her eyes was much less. She asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Zhang Tan answered and asked where the family had gone. The aunt told them, "We went to the county town to sell watermelons. Watermelons are not selling well now. We can't sell them in town, so we have to transport them to the county town. But they are not selling well in the county town either. There are too many watermelons and not enough people, so they usually don't come back until very late."

Zhang Tan asked, "How late will it be?"

The aunt said, "It's hard to predict. If you're lucky and there are a lot of people buying melons, you'll be home early. If you can't sell them, you might be home very late. He didn't get home until around 8pm yesterday, and it was almost 8pm the day before yesterday. My old man also went there, but he hasn't come back yet. I just called him and he said that sales weren't good today."

"Thank you." Zhang Tan thanked the other party.

The old lady was quite enthusiastic and added, "If you want to find someone, I suggest you come back tomorrow morning. They are usually in the melon fields picking melons in the morning, and they will be gone after lunch."

Zhang Tan thanked the other party again, and then discussed with everyone, actually mainly with Xiao Liu.

It would definitely not be possible to wait until eight o'clock in the evening. Everyone was hungry. And the little girl Xiaoliu said that she planned to leave after seeing her mother and would not stay here overnight. How could a little child like her leave so late at night!
Xiaoliu also heard what the old lady said. When she heard that her mother would not be home until very late, she was almost crying in anxiety.

Xiao Bai quickly comforted her: "It doesn't matter if we can't wait today. We can wait again tomorrow. We will eventually wait, right?"

Xiao Liu didn't say anything.

Xiao Xiaobai immediately agreed. She was her aunt's follower: "Yes! Xiaoliu is right! We will definitely help you find your mother."

Xiao Bai corrected her and said, "You should call Xiao Liu Sister."

Xier replied, "Yes, Xiaobai, you are right. As long as we work hard, we will do it well."

Liuliu was shocked and said, "Wow - you can say something that makes sense now."

Xiwawa nodded and said, "As long as I read more books, I will understand a lot of things and become smarter. As long as we come a few more times, we will definitely be able to find Xiaoliu's mother."

Everyone was comforting Xiaoliu, and Xiaoliu finally relieved her anxiety. She didn't want everyone to wait here with her. Everyone hadn't eaten yet, and they must be hungry. Liuliu was even growling with hunger.

So Xiaoliu suggested that everyone go back first.

Zhang Tan immediately agreed and suggested going home first and coming back to look for him early tomorrow morning.

"Xiaoliu, come and stay at my house. We'll take you to see your mother early tomorrow morning, okay?" Xiaobai suggested.

Xiao Xiaobai also vowed: "We will definitely help you find a good mother. Are your father and mother together?"

As soon as she finished speaking, her aunt covered her mouth and dragged her away.

Xiao Liu smiled and said nothing.

At this time, Dudu said, "When the sun rises tomorrow, we will set out at six o'clock. We will ride bicycles and we will definitely be able to find Xiaoliu's mother."

Xiaomi also enthusiastically offered advice: "Why don't we leave a note at her door, telling her mother that we'll be there early tomorrow morning and ask them to wait for us?"

……

Everyone talked at once and put forward various ideas, which made Xiaoliu feel much better. It was not the end of the world if he didn't find his mother tonight.

Finally, she agreed to go home with Xiaobai.

Tan Jiner was thoughtful and asked Xiaoliu to call her family first to report that she was safe, otherwise her family would be worried to death if they saw that she did not come home tonight.

"I don't have a phone." Xiao Liu said a little embarrassedly.

"I have it!" Xiao Bai immediately showed his smart phone watch, "Use my phone watch to call."

"I have one too! Use mine!"

"And mine."

……

Everyone enthusiastically took out their own phone watches and let Xiaoliu use theirs to call his family, as if it was an honor.

"Xiao Liu, do you remember your home phone number?" Tan Jiner asked with some concern.

The little girl went out without a phone on her. Her family members were really generous. They dared to let her go on a long journey.

Xiao Liu smiled, rummaged in his trouser pocket, and pulled out a small piece of paper. When he unfolded it, he saw that it was a mobile phone number.

"This is my grandfather's phone number," she said.

Xiaobai came over, entered the number on his watch, dialed the number, and handed the watch to Xiaoliu.

The phone rang eight or nine times before it was connected. Xiao Liu called out "Grandpa" and then told him what happened today.

Of course the old man was worried about Xiaoliu going out, especially when he had to stay at a stranger's house at night. He was even more worried.

So Zhang Tan took the initiative to explain to him and told him the name of the village chief of Baijia Village.

Unexpectedly, the old man actually knew the village chief, so after Zhang Tan hung up the phone, he immediately called the village chief, told him the situation, and then asked him to call Xiao Liu's grandfather to reassure the old man.

More than ten minutes later, the village chief called again and told Zhang Tan that the matter had been settled.

The old man was very vigilant. Although he had heard of the village chief's name, he did not know him. When the village chief called him, he could not tell whether it was true or not. So the old man actually ran to the village chief's house in his own village.

The village chief of their village knew the village chief of Baijia Village, and they had each other's phone numbers, so when Lao Bai called, the village chief answered the call. After confirming that it was correct, he felt relieved.

Zhang Tan thanked the village chief, and seeing that the matter had been settled, he took the children back to Baijia Village.

When I got home, the sun had already set and the moon had risen in the sky. The moonlight was like water, illuminating the village as if it were daytime. I could walk on the country road in the moonlight without a flashlight.

Some people were playing in the water and bathing in the small river in Baijia Village. Zhang Tan took the children there. For children in summer, playing in the water and bathing in the small river is probably the happiest moment of the day.

Xiaoliu didn't bring any spare clothes, so Xiaobai gave her one of his own clothes. They were of similar body shapes, so they fit her perfectly.

The little girl quickly integrated into this big family, and the dinner in the evening was more lively than ever before. It was obvious that she smiled more often, and she was made to laugh out loud several times by Liuliu.

After dinner, the bamboo bed was placed in the yard. On the coffee table were cut watermelons, apples, pears, grapes, and pear melons sent by Dunzi's mother. The evening breeze blew...

The children fell asleep while counting the stars while listening to the story.
