Ten diligent days: the fields are still

Yuan Lai and Hong Bao came to the river south of the village and prepared to start fishing.

Hongbao skillfully put the bait on the hook, swung out the fishing rod, then sat steadily on the stool, patiently waiting for the fish to bite.

In order to increase his chances, Yuan Lai deliberately chose a position a little further away from the red envelope.

She cast the bait and prayed silently in her heart: "Fish, fish, please take the bait."

About ten minutes later, Hong Bao suddenly shouted excitedly, "Yuan Lai, look, I have a fish!"

Yuan Lai turned his head and saw that the fishing rod in Hong Bao's hand was bent into a bow shape by a big fish.

Yuan Lai couldn't help but envy her because her hands were still empty, so she half-jokingly asked, "Can you eat your fish?"

"Why can't I eat it? I'll eat it for you to see." As he said that, Hong Bao pretended to put the fish into his mouth.

Yuan Lai quickly stopped him: "Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore."

In the following time, both of them stared at their fishing rods intently, waiting for the next fish to bite. Finally, after some effort, they only caught one fish, and the bucket was filled with lively water.

After returning home, Hong Bao took out a sharp knife from the kitchen, walked to the sink and started processing the fish.

Yuan Lai asked Li Gengyun for help: "Brother, can you help me weld a barbecue grill?"

Li Gengyun agreed and called He Haonan to help. Together, they welded a barbecue grill.

Yuan Lai placed charcoal under the rack, lit it, and the flames shot up high.

Hong Bao washed the fish, and then he chose to leave the rest to Zhao Xiaotong.

Zhao Xiaotong had just finished frying potatoes and was about to start cooking when he saw the red envelope. He smiled and took the fish, cut it into pieces, and marinated it with seasoning.

Wait fifteen minutes.

Then wrap the fish in tinfoil and go, "Go grill."

Hong Bao came out with the fish and put it on the grill.

Yuan Lai took out the lamb skewers that Wang Yiheng had made and put them on the grill.

The two men brought a small stool and stood in front of the grill.

Zhou Qingran rushed out of the room, his face full of panic.

"Yuan Lai, have you seen Tiantian?"

Yuan Lai was a little confused by the question, "No, isn't she sleeping in her room?"

"After get off work, my aunt sent me a video. Tiantian was sleeping soundly in bed. But when I came back, she was not in the room! I have searched the entire house, but still can't find her!" Zhou Qingran's speech speed became faster and faster, and in the end the words were connected together.

Yuan Lai reluctantly understood what she meant, quickly stood up, and comforted her: "Don't worry, maybe she ran out to play after waking up."

"But, where can she go to play so late at night? There are so many people in the program crew, and the village is remote. No one should come here to steal children..." Zhou Qingran became more and more worried as he spoke, and his voice was a little choked.

"Don't scare yourself." Yuan Lai patted Zhou Qingran's shoulder. "There are staff on duty at the village entrance every day. Strangers can't get in."

Yuan Lai pulled Zhou Qingran back to the room and checked it carefully again, but found nothing unusual.

"Could it be that he has run away to another time and space?" With the previous experience as a lesson, Yuan Lai's mind was opened up and he thought of a possibility.

Jiang Qingtian hadn't been with Zhou Qingran for long, so she probably wouldn't have developed any feelings for him. Could it be that Zhou Qingran had asked for Su Deyi again?

"wait……"

Yuan Lai immediately called Ren He.

After hearing the whole story, Ren He laughed twice. "You think traveling through time and space is that easy? Even I can't do it. It's definitely not possible. You can look for it in the village. A kid that small can't get far."

After hanging up the phone, Yuan Lai felt relieved. At least he was still in the village.

After going downstairs, Zhou Qingran immediately mobilized all the people who were not at work to look for the child.

Chen Shaoxi was busy in the kitchen. Seeing people coming and going outside, he came out to ask curiously.

"what happened?"

"Zhou Qingran's child is missing, and we are all helping to find him."

Chen Shaoxi reacted immediately, turned off the fire and ran out of the kitchen, "I'll go notify the others!"

Hongbao joined the search team without hesitation and ran faster than anyone else.

When everyone came out of Zhou Qingran's residence, there was another house directly opposite. There were two paths around the house, extending in different directions.

Everyone immediately dispersed and searched outward along the two paths.

Don't miss any place where people might be hiding, whether it's bushes, water tanks, or other hidden corners.

Yuan Lai and several staff members chose one of the roads and walked forward carefully, searching every house and room. They even searched the trash cans on the roadside.

A one-year-old child has many places to hide, and if he falls into a hole, it will be no joke.

Yuan Lai moved quickly, leaving the other staff members far behind. "You guys take your time searching. I'll go check ahead first. If there's any news, I'll update the group immediately."

She continued walking forward alone, and before she knew it, she was once again at the south of the village. In front of her was the river where she and Hongbao had just gone fishing.

She and Hongbao had been fishing here and hadn't noticed anything unusual. If Jiang Qingtian came here, they would definitely have noticed it.

Yuan Lai walked along the river for more than ten meters and found nothing, so he turned around and went back to the village to look for other places.

Not long after she left, a girl pulled Jiang Qingtian out from behind a big rock.

This stone has a strange shape and is pressed against the mountain wall. No one would have thought that there is a space behind it.

"Mom..." Jiang Qingtian pointed to the place where Yuan Lai disappeared, wanting to follow.

Yuan Lai is often with Zhou Qingran, so it's reasonable for Jiang Qingtian to think of her own mother when she sees her, but the girl seems to have misunderstood.

The girl picked up Jiang Qingtian and asked, "What did you call her?"

"Mother……"

The girl's face looked a little unhappy. "Then who is your father?"

Dad? Jiang Qingtian couldn't tell Jiang Yan's position accurately, so she just said vaguely, "Clap... Clap..."

When the girl said this, it automatically changed. "Filming a show? Isn't that one of the ten of them?"

The girl seemed to have discovered something significant. She immediately took a photo of herself and the child and posted it on the social platform, "Hehe, everyone, guess whose child this is?"

The signal was bad in the mountains, and the post went around in circles for a long time before it was sent.

The girl was planning to go back to the village with her child, but she heard shouting everywhere in the village and thought they were looking for her.

She decided to continue walking downstream with the child. "I'll take you out to play. It's much more fun outside than here. Do you want to go?"

Jiang Qingtian seemed to understand, but nodded obediently.

Yuan Lai walked a few meters forward and stopped beside a stone. He saw candy wrappers thrown on the ground.

Her intuition was right, there must have been someone here just now.

Hongbao led everyone to search along the way, and finally arrived at the river south of the village.

"Why is it here?" Hong Bao wondered. He and Yuan Lai had been fishing here just now, but they didn't see anyone there.

There are rugged mountains upstream of the river and another village downstream.

The red envelope moved decisively downstream.

Passing by the big rock, he became even more certain that Yuan Lai was with the child.

Girls don't have much strength to begin with, not to mention carrying a child. She felt a little tired after just a few steps. She put Jiang Qingtian on the ground and said, "We're almost there."

"Mom..." Jiang Qingtian repeated.

"Yes, your mother is in the village ahead." The girl continued to coax.

"Mother……"

"You'll see your mother soon." The girl picked up a thick stick, took Jiang Qingtian's hand, and continued walking forward.

Yuan Lai hurried as fast as she could and even fell on the way, almost slipping into the river. Fortunately, she held onto a tree trunk and managed to survive.

It’s hard to imagine that the other person could walk so fast with a child.

This person either has excellent physical fitness due to years of regular exercise, or she is just too slow to react.

Yuan Lai regretted her decision. If she had walked two meters forward, she would have found the person behind the stone.

Just two meters.

"Hongbao, are we on the right road? This road doesn't look like one humans can walk on."

Hong Bao nodded to the people behind him and said, "I'm sure I'm not going the wrong way. I'm heading downstream, but there's a fork in the road ahead. I need to make another judgment. Why don't you go back and wait for news? I'll find it myself."

Li Hao refused without hesitation, "You are still a child, how can you act alone? I don't agree, let's look for it together."

He Haonan agreed with Li Hao's point of view, "That's right, let's look for it together."

"But there are too many of us and the road is too narrow, which seriously affects our speed!" Zhao Yibo stepped on the roots of a tree, steadied himself, and looked at the heads in front of him one after another, worried that they were too slow to catch up with the other party.

"What if this is a trick by the enemy? Everyone is here. What if he leaves through another route? Right?"

Zhuo Yuan's words make sense.

There are ten of them in total, six of them are here. It would be disastrous if the whole army was wiped out.

"Then Shaoxi and I will go find Big Brother. They should be short of people."

Li Gengyun proposed.

"No," Zhao Yibo rejected the proposal, "One of you and Shaoxi has to stay behind. If there's a fight, I'm afraid the four of us won't be able to handle it."

"Then Shaoxi stay here, I'll go find my big brother."

Li Gengyun turned around and walked back, quickly disappearing from everyone's sight.

Li Hao held Hong Bao's hand, and then held Zhuo Yuan's hand behind him, "Let's walk forward hand in hand. Walk faster."
