Xiaohua first raised her paw and pointed outside, then rubbed Mu Baobao's leg with her head before looking at Cheng Zishi.

"Hmm?" Cheng Zishi was a little confused. "Xiaohua, you're looking at me like that because you want to eat something?"

A look of human contempt appeared in Xiaohua's cat eyes.

Cheng Zishi saw this and said, "..."

He was actually despised by a cat?

Cheng Zishi was so angry that he squatted down and looked at Xiaohua with a fake smile, "Xiaohua, I didn't provoke you, what do you mean?"

Mu Baobao looked at him, then looked at the joke. Why did she feel that the uncle was only two years old?

Xiaohua raised her head slightly, looked at Cheng Zishi with even more contempt, and meowed.

"...I don't understand cat language." Cheng Zi said honestly and never thought of asking the baby for help.

Xiaohua suddenly walked back and forth, looking at him from time to time, meowing non-stop, as if expressing something.

Cheng Zishi pondered for a moment before guessing, "You've discovered something is related to me?"

Xiaohua nodded and continued walking around.

Cheng Zishi's expression changed, "Is it related to my family?"

Xiaohua continued to nod, and raised her paw to point at the mountains not far away.

Cheng Zishi looked in the direction indicated by the joke and saw a wall.

It won't be a wall.

He raised his head and looked into the distance. He saw the mountains hidden in the fog. He thought to himself, "Xiaohua, are my people searching for me in the mountains?"

Xiaohua nodded again.

At this moment, Cheng Zishi had basically guessed it, but his heart was filled with coldness.

It has been so long and he has been "missing", but his family members are still unwilling to let him go and are still searching for his whereabouts in the mountains.

It's really hateful and sad.

"Xiaohua, thank you."

He touched Xiaohua and calmed himself down. Since those people wouldn't let him go, he wouldn't let them go!

"Uncle, are you okay?" Mu Baobao was a little worried. "You don't seem to be in a good mood."

Cheng Zishi waved his hand to indicate that everything was fine. "It's all over."

"Baby, go find your master in the backyard. I have something to do."

Mu Baobao said "oh" obediently, then took Xiaohua to the backyard to find Doctor Deng.

Cheng Zishi stood up, looked at the foggy sky, and a cold arc appeared at the corner of his lips.

backyard.

When Mu Baobao saw Doctor Deng walking over with his hands behind his back, he happily rushed over and said, "Master!"

Doctor Deng laughed and reached out to catch her, "The baby is here."

"Hey, Xiaohua is here too? Why don't I see Xiaobai?"

Xiaohua meowed, jumped onto the wall, and then slipped away.

"Xiaohua went to find Xiaobai." said Mu Baobao.

Doctor Deng said, "So that's how it is." "Xiaobai and Xiaohua have such a good relationship."

Mubaobao nodded, "Xiaohua and Xiaobai are best friends, along with me."

Dr. Deng didn't think there was anything wrong with what she said. No one said that you can't be friends with animals.

"Baby is so lucky to have so many good friends."

Mu Baobao agreed, "Master, you and I are good friends too."

Doctor Deng patted her head and said, "Okay, we are good friends too."

The master and disciple came to the main room.

"Baby, today we are going to teach you how to stand." Doctor Deng sat in a chair and looked at the apprentice standing in front of him.

Mubaobao tilted his head, his face full of question marks, "Standing posture?"

"Master, isn't this how you stand? How else do you stand?"

Doctor Deng laughed and said, "I'm talking about the proper standing posture according to etiquette."

"Whether you're sitting, standing, or walking, there are rules."

Mu Baobao exclaimed in shock, "It's so tiring to live like that. Everything has rules. It feels like I'm being restrained."

Doctor Deng was silent for a moment before he said, "Yes, being in a large family means being constrained."

"Whether it's your words or actions, everything must follow the rules and etiquette. Otherwise, there will be endless gossip and even your family won't understand you."

This is what it’s like to live in a big family. Sometimes it’s very depressing and you have to suppress your own nature.

Mu Baobao held his hand and said in a baby voice, "Master, don't be sad."

"Here, you don't have to follow rules and etiquette, you can do whatever you want."

Doctor Deng exhaled a breath of stale air, and smiled so much that the wrinkles on his face were exposed. "Master, don't be sad."

"Master is already old, so even if he doesn't follow the rules, no one will say anything."

Mu Baobao patted himself and said, "I'm just a child. No one will say anything if I don't follow the rules."

Doctor Deng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and nodded at her a few times, "Do you think I don't know your little thoughts?"

"Rules and etiquette must be learned. Don't think you can avoid them."

Mu Baobao's face suddenly fell, and he pouted unhappily, "Master, I'm still young..."

"It is precisely because you are young that you have to start learning rules and etiquette." Doctor Deng ruthlessly shattered her fantasy.

Baby Mu wanted to cry. She didn’t want to learn rules and etiquette. She just wanted to play.

"Master..." She looked at Doctor Deng with tears in her eyes.

Doctor Deng walked over and adjusted her posture. "Stand like this for a quarter of an hour."

"If you can't stand well, add another quarter of an hour."

When Mu Baobao heard this, he didn't dare to be lazy at all and stood there obediently, like a wooden man.

But her pair of clear big eyes moved around, and her facial expressions were very rich.

Dr. Deng was amused by what he saw. This is how pure-minded children are.

However, the baby is the cutest child among them.

After standing for a while, Mu Baobao felt a little tired.

She insisted that her master was doing this for her own good.

Seeing that she persisted without tears or a fuss, Doctor Deng became more and more satisfied with her. She was worthy of being his chosen disciple.

"Doctor Deng, Mr. Cheng, are you at home?" At this time, the voice of the village chief came.

Doctor Deng asked Mu Baobao to stand still and then came to the gate of the yard.

He didn't see Cheng Zishi and didn't think much about it.

"Is there anything I can help you with, Village Chief?" he asked with a distant smile.

The village chief, hunched over, asked humbly, "Doctor Deng, I'm here to ask if we can send a few children to our village."

He hastened to add, "Just a few kids."

Doctor Deng can understand the village chief. If he were the village chief, he would make the same choice.

"I can't make the decision on this matter alone."

He stroked his beard and said, "Well, I'll talk to Cheng Zishi later, and you can pick a few kids over there."

"Ages five to eight, must be obedient, sensible, and intelligent, and preferably one with no messy affairs at home."

The village chief smiled happily, repeatedly promised to take care of the matter, and then left with a sense of relief.

When he returned home, he saw Gouzi coming back from outside and asked, "Gouzi, where have you been?"

"Didn't I ask you to help out on the Mu family's land?"

Gouzi scratched his head and said, "Grandpa, I came back to get the hoe."

"What happened?" The village chief was confused when he saw him like this.
