An eight-year-old kid emptied his scumbag father's warehouse and followed his grandparents into

"Sister, what should we do? That fat guy said he would send us away in two days, but Tianbao doesn't want to go. Tianbao still wants to save big brother and second brother."

There was a slight tremor in the little sweet baby's voice, and his small body was filled with anxiety, but also with great determination.

"Tianbao should believe in her brother. Big brother and second brother will definitely be fine." This is the only way Jing Chunxi could comfort her.

After eating their second steamed bun, the two of them lay down on the bed. It was already dark. The room was dim and quiet, with only the occasional faint light coming through the cracks in the wooden boards, barely illuminating their small world.

Little Sweetie held onto Jing Chunxi's arm and kept murmuring softly. From her voice, one could tell she was in a bad mood. Her determination to save people was truly tremendous.

"Tianbao, have you thought about how to save them? Do you think that your presence here might make your two brothers worry about you?" Jing Chunxi's voice was soft, yet gentle and soothing. She knew that little Tianbao was just a child, filled with worry for her brothers, and might not understand the complexity of the situation. She gently patted little Tianbao on the back, trying to comfort her.

Little Sweetie sat up and pulled his pants down. "Sleep, what are you doing? Don't take them off."

Jing Chunxi held her down, thinking she was going to take off her pants before going to bed. She thought it was unnecessary. If there was any real danger, she wouldn't be able to run that fast even with her pants on. She frowned, watching Xiao Tianbao's actions with some confusion.

"No." Little Sweetie twisted her body, trying to push Jing Chunxi's hand away. Her face flushed red as she tried to explain.

He took off half of his pants and reached under his trouser legs. He pulled out a small oil-paper bag from his trouser legs. It seemed that the sealing was dripped with wax and looked very dense.

Little Sweetie was very careful in his movements, fearing that the oil paper package would be torn.

Jing Chunxi was surprised: "You also hid food?"

I thought the little sweetie had hidden some cakes or candies again, after all, he had a history of hiding steamed buns along the way. Although he foolishly said he was coming to save his brother, he still knew to bring steamed buns for himself so he wouldn't go hungry.

Little Tianbao didn't open the oil paper package, but just showed off in front of Jing Chunxi, saying: "It's rat poison for those bad guys!" There was a hint of cunning on her little face, and she tried hard to show off her cleverness.

Jing Chunxi was stunned for a moment, then showed a helpless and relieved smile: "You are awesome!" Scolding is useless at this time. Praising the child can make him happier. After all, among children of the same age, the little sweet baby is smart and brave beyond his age, and he also attaches great importance to family affection.

What Xiao Tianbao didn't know was that Yan Huai, who was already very anxious because he couldn't be separated from his elder brother, was in a small bamboo house with Xiao Man and the two brothers more than ten feet away from them, feeling dejected and sad.

The small bamboo hut was just as dim as their small dark room, except for the gaps between the bamboos, which occasionally let in a faint ray of moonlight. Yan Huai sat on the ground, his hands hugging his knees, his eyes filled with confusion and pain.

He asked, "How was Tianbao captured? Where was he captured?" There was a hint of sob in his voice as he tried hard to control his emotions.

It was pitch dark, and Xiao Man had no idea what the village was called. She simply gave a rough description of the situation, describing it as a village not far from the county seat. She tried to recall every detail, hoping Yan Huai would find some clues.

"She should have stayed at home in the tea tree farm. She should have been on the mountain. Why was she so stupid?" Yan Huai cried in pain, pulling his hair while crying, regretting that he had not taken good care of his sister.

His tears fell like beads from a broken string, sliding down his cheeks and dripping onto the ground. He felt like a failed brother who couldn't even protect his sister.

"If Daddy and Mommy knew that my sister was missing, Mommy would definitely go crazy." He muttered softly, with a slight tremor in his voice.

Xiao Man also touched him sadly and said, "No matter who is lost, their parents will care very much. It's okay, our young lady will protect her. Xiao Tianbao will definitely be fine. You have to trust us."

He tried to comfort Yan Huai, but he didn't want to say it too clearly, and his voice was choked with sobs.

Even so, Yan Huai was still very sad. He had always regretted that he and his brother had disobeyed the advice and had run away with the housekeeper. As a result, they were caught, which led to his sister following them. He muttered quietly: "If only we hadn't been so impulsive..."

But where is the medicine for regret in the world! Yan Huai's tears flickered with a faint light in the darkness, expressing his inner helplessness and pain.

……

"Xiao Man, tomorrow morning I'll take the steamed buns to the young ladies. I want to thank them personally." After taking the medicine Jing Chunxi had given him, the boy felt a warmth in his chest. As evening approached, the pain gradually subsided. While lying down, he felt nothing unusual anymore, knowing that his life was safe. He looked at Xiao Man with gratitude, his eyes filled with sincerity.

The two brothers were very grateful. The eldest brother took the initiative to introduce his family situation: "We are both from Guchashu Village. We have been tea farmers for generations. Everyone in our family starved to death. There was no adult to protect us. Even if we could hand over the tea, they would not let us go."

The little boy also whispered, "Our surname is Zhuang. My name is Xiaoshu, and my brother's name is Dashu." His voice was very soft, and he kept staring at Xiaoman.

Zhuang Dashu was silent for a long time. Seeing Xiaoman didn't say anything, he stared at him and said, "I know you are pretending. You must have other purposes for coming here. Also, your young lady saved my life. If you need anything, just tell us. We will do our best to repay you." The boy's eyes were very firm, with a determination to repay his gratitude.

After hearing what Zhuang Dashu said, Yan Huai's eyes lit up. He stopped crying, wiped his tears, and said firmly: "We have to escape. I want to take my sister with me and find my brother. Xiaoman, can you help me?" Despite his small body, he had unquestionable determination, and his eyes showed that he was determined to win.

Xiao Man extended the back of her hand, and Yan Huai immediately responded by pressing his hand against hers. Although Da Shu and Xiao Shu didn't understand why, they had a vague guess and without hesitation pressed their hands against hers.

Xiao Man clapped her other hand on top, pressed it down, and said, "Let's work together, we can do it."

She conveyed a belief with her heart, which ignited a raging fire in everyone's heart, full of hope and determination.
