In the past six months, whether it was because his life was going smoothly and fulfilling, or for other reasons, Xu Yan rarely thought about some of the things described in the original text.

Memories gradually fade.

When Dabao brought it up again, she suddenly remembered that the book did indeed say that Xie Zhuo sold his two nephews.

Although the original book did not focus on describing the specific circumstances after Dabao and Xiaobao were sold, when writing about Han Xiaoyu's increasing success and his increasingly happy family, it briefly mentioned Xie Zhuo and the miserable lives of his two nephews.

I thought it would be impossible to return to the original plot development line no matter what, but Dabao suddenly had such a dream again.

Could it be that he was stimulated by Lin Dong’s incident?

Xu Yan's mind was full of thoughts, but her expression was still calm and gentle. She raised her hand and rubbed Dabao's hair, "Are you too worried about Lin Dong, so you have such a dream?"

"It's possible," Dabao nodded, then sighed like a little adult, "Lin Dong is one year older than Xiaobao and me, but he's shorter than both of us. If he continues to starve to death, he will definitely not be able to match our height in the future."

Xu Yan didn't expect that he was still concerned about the height issue.

He raised his hand and pinched Dabao's face again.

When Xie Zhuo came back in the evening, Xu Yan talked about this matter with Xie Zhuo again.

Xie Zhuo frowned when he heard Dabao's dream, because he had the same dream for a while, and when he was awakened, he was unable to come back to his senses for a long time.

He even recalled carefully at that time, wondering whether he had really sold his two cubs to someone else in his previous life.

But all his memories clearly told him that there was no such thing. Even though their lives in their previous life were very different from now, he had never thought about it in this regard.

Dabao and Xiaobao are the only children of his two older brothers.

Before his two older brothers left home, they doted on him the most. Any delicious food would be given to him without reservation. Even if he was ignorant, he would not sell the two cubs.

But the dream seemed very real at that time.

"What are you thinking about?" Seeing Xie Zhuo distracted, Xu Yan reached out and pinched his chin.

Xie Zhuo came back to his senses.

"I was wondering if Dabao was thinking about something during the day and dreaming about it at night, and he put himself in the shoes of Lin Dong," Xu Yan said. After a pause, he said, "Why don't you go and ask around when you have time?"

The rest of the sentence was not finished, but Xie Zhuo still understood it.

Xu Yan meant for him to find out about Lin Dong's situation.

"If he's really not having a good time," Xu Yan's hand kept pinching Xie Zhuo's chin.

"… Let's just bring him to our house, what do you think?"

Xu Yan didn't say this on a whim, but instead thought about it for the entire afternoon.

With their current living conditions, they could have no problem raising ten more children. What’s more, Lin Dong is very well behaved. He looks like the kind of child who is just like Dabao and Xiaobao, well-behaved and lovable.

On the other hand, his experience is indeed too similar to that of Dabao and Xiaobao. Seeing him is like seeing two kids from parallel universes, which makes people feel sorry for his ending.

Most importantly, the two kids also like him very much.

I originally thought that children would have no consistency in how they treat their playmates. They would play with one today and another tomorrow. However, Dabao and Xiaobao have been talking about him for a year. Every day when they come back from school, they would say that it would be great if Lin Dong were here.

Dabao also saved half of his snacks, planning to give them to Lin Dong when he saw him again.

Xie Zhuo did not respond to Xu Yan's words immediately.

The main thing is that he knows that the notice of resuming the college entrance examination will be issued in a few days. At that time, he and Xu Yan will definitely take the college entrance examination. According to their preparations in the past two years, it will not be difficult to go to university in City B. By then...

It’s hard enough to take care of two cubs, wouldn’t it be even harder to take care of another one?

He didn't know whether Xu Yan had thought about this question.

Although no results were reached the night before, Xie Zhuo still planned to look for Lin Dong early the next morning.

We need to check his condition first.

If the person is living a good life even after being sold, there would be no need for the couple to worry about it.

"Why did you get up so early?" Xu Yan noticed that the man in the bed sat up, opened his eyes and looked at him.

The beautiful scene was still filled with dense mist, which had not yet come into focus for a long time.

"I'll go to Lin Dong's village and ask his second uncle," Xie Zhuo leaned over and kissed the corner of Xu Yan's eye, "We have to find Lin Dong first."

Xu Yan nodded, not knowing whether he heard it or not.

Anyway, a pair of hands were holding Xie Zhuo's waist and didn't let go.

Xie Zhuo was amused by her little action and kissed her on the forehead again.

Xu Yan became a little more sober. She turned her head and glanced at the air vent above the door. It was still dark outside, and it was still dark outside.

"It's not even dawn yet," Xu Yan looked away.

"Well," Xie Zhuo grabbed a lock of Xu Yan's hair and twisted it around his fingertips, "I couldn't sleep and was afraid of waking you up, but I didn't expect that I would wake you up anyway."

Xu Yan was still a little sleepy. He blinked and slid closer to Xie Zhuo. He turned off the flashlight next to his pillow and muttered, "Sleep with me for a while longer."

Unexpectedly, just after I finished speaking, a big hand pressed against my thigh.

Xie Zhuo's voice sounded above his head, "Now that you're awake, will you play with me for a while?"

His words were inquiring, and his hands were already rubbing a certain place gently as if they were familiar with it.

Xu Yan suddenly became completely awake.

Xie Zhuo didn't stop his movements until his wrist was tightly grasped by a slender and soft hand, then he looked at Xu Yan's face.

It was still dark and there were no lights on in the house, so I couldn't see anything.

But Xie Zhuo still felt that he saw Xu Yan's face blushing.

He chuckled softly.

A low and deep male voice echoed in the empty room, and Xu Yan clamped his legs tighter.

She regretted not letting Xie Zhuo get up just now.

Xie Zhuo's hands were "confined" and he couldn't move, but he was not in a hurry. He lowered his head and kissed Xu Yan's face again and again.

The other hand let go of Xu Yan's hair, slowly moved down along her cheek, and hooked it when it passed her collarbone.

Xu Yan felt a little uncomfortable with his slow and provocative movements.

He tilted his head and bit the knuckle of Xie Zhuo's index finger.

Her movements were not strong, hoping to make someone back down.

But someone didn't get what she wanted.

He easily broke free from the hand that was restrained by her, and with the tips of three fingers he lifted up the obstruction and directly touched the delicate flower.

Xu Yan's mouth was still biting Xie Zhuo's knuckles. Because of this action, his whole body shuddered and he bit down hard.

Xie Zhuo has been doing farm work for several years, so his skin has become thick and tough, with thin calluses on his fingertips and palms. He did not pull his hand back even when he was bitten.

As if he didn't feel any pain, he quickened his pace a bit.

The pistil immediately felt a little damp.
