"You're too beautiful, it's not safe here." Lanlan looked at Ning Ruirui, "But with Uncle Wolf protecting you here, you will be safe."

These words seem to be a bit convoluted, but obviously, the first place Lan Lan mentioned refers to this village, and the second place refers to her home.

"Lanlan, has anything happened here before?" Ning Ruirui couldn't help asking again, but she was a little puzzled in her heart. If some beautiful girls were in danger, shouldn't Wang Chao remind her? ? Could it be that Wang Chao didn't know either?

"I don't know." Lanlan looked at Ning Ruirui with a strange look, then turned around and walked inside.

Ning Ruirui frowned slightly, but she didn't follow her. Although this girl named Lan Lan was only eleven years old, she was obviously much more mature than her peers.

After a while, Lan Lan came out again, carrying a big bowl in her hand, there was rice in the bowl and a big meaty bone, after that, she didn't care about Ning Ruirui and Xia Tian, ​​just talked to her there Uncle Wolf had dinner together.

Lanlan ate rice, and gave the meat and bones to the wolf dog. It looked like a real family eating there, and the scene was actually quite harmonious.

"Little long-legged girl, do you want to eat? I can go get you something to eat." Xia Tian asked at this time.

"No need, we'll just eat with everyone later." Ning Ruirui replied, since she felt that since she came out to be a volunteer with everyone, it would be better to do activities with everyone as much as possible.

"Their dinner is definitely not good." Xia Tian said lazily, "Why don't I go and catch a rabbit, and then let's cook a rabbit hot pot."

Ning Ruirui gave Xia Tian a supercilious look. She originally wanted to say no, but suddenly remembered something, and immediately changed her words: "Okay, you go catch more rabbits, pheasants, etc., and come back, we can make it together with everyone." eat."

"Okay." Xia Tian agreed very simply, and immediately disappeared from the yard after speaking.

Lanlan's eyes seemed to brighten up a little, but soon, she continued to eat.

"Lan Lan, don't rush to eat, why don't you eat some with us later?" Ning Ruirui said to Lan Lan.

"I'll eat first, and I can eat meat later." But Lan Lan said so, and then continued to eat, not to mention, she still has a big appetite.

When Lanlan finished eating a large bowl of rice, Xia Tian also came back, and he also had two rabbits and three pheasants in his hand.

"Lanlan, why don't you go to the school with us, and we'll have some food together later, if you don't want to go, we'll eat these things at your house." Ning Ruirui asked Lanlan for her opinion .

"Not going to school." Lan Lan shook her head, then put down the bowl and walked inside, "I'm going to boil water to kill chickens."

"I'll go with you." Ning Ruirui followed, and after taking two steps, she turned her head to look at Xia Tian again, "Go and get some green vegetables and the like, we'll cook a hot pot later, if we need some side dishes There are ingredients and so on, anyway, you can figure it out.”

Xia Tian, ​​who was always happy to help his girlfriend, disappeared from the yard again.

An hour later, in the courtyard of the villa, the hot pot was already cooked, a rabbit was put into the hot pot, and then they also burned a plate of pheasant, um, with beer, and in summer they brought a lot of hot pot side dishes, even served He had all the ingredients. He had found some vegetables on the mountain, but then he felt that it was troublesome, so he went directly to a hot pot restaurant at the foot of the mountain and got a lot of vegetables.

"Little long-legged girl, you need beer to eat hot pot, so you should drink some beer too." Xia Tian said to Ning Ruirui seriously.

"Do you think you can get me drunk with beer?" Ning Ruirui said angrily, this guy probably thought that she could do something bad when she was drunk.

"Little long-legged girl, why do I want to get you drunk?" Xia Tian looked a little surprised, "It's normal to eat hot pot and drink beer."

Speaking of this, Xia Tian said to himself again: "Well, long-legged girls seem to like eating hot pot in the past."

Xia Tian unconsciously thought of Ye Yumei again, and Ning Ruirui also felt that this guy's hands were not honest at the moment, and he was moving around her waist and legs. It was obvious that he made a move on Ye Yumei because of the sound, Ning Ruirui was a little upset.

This damned pervert really still regards her as a substitute for Ye Yumei, that's simply too much!

"Hey, go and buy me some beer, I want to drink it!" Ning Ruirui said angrily, she didn't want to drink away her worries, she just wanted to drive this pervert away.

This trick is basically effective, no, Xia Tian left immediately, of course, he came back soon, and brought back two boxes of beer.

In the yard, there were three people and one dog, eating hot pot and drinking beer. Lan Lan gave the wolf dog a piece of meat from time to time, and took a big bowl and poured it a bowl of beer. Although Lan Lan had already eaten a big bowl of beer before However, she is still eating non-stop. It can be seen that her life has not been good these years.

In fact, this is normal. She lived alone for more than three years. When her mother left, she was only eight years old. An eight-year-old girl lived alone with a dog. It would be good if she didn't starve herself to death. , can you still expect her to live well?

"Lanlan, how have you been living alone all these years?" Ning Ruirui finally couldn't help asking, she was really curious, how could an eight-year-old girl only have a wolf dog to protect her? Spend these three years in such a poor mountain village?

"Before my mother left, she prepared a lot of things for me. She didn't seem to plan to come back from the beginning. There is a cellar under the villa, which stores a lot of food, but now there is not much, only some rice left. I am in the yard. I planted a little vegetable in the back, and Uncle Wolf would go to catch wild rabbits for me to eat from time to time, and I also had some money. The village head grandpa in the village was kind to me, he would give me some things from time to time, and would help me buy some What I need." Lan Lan seemed to be talking a little more at this time, "I want to go down the mountain to find my mother, but the village chief grandpa told me that I am still young, and it is not safe to go down the mountain, and the city does not allow such a big one. Wolfdogs go wherever they want, so it's safer for me to stay in the village now."

"I see." Ning Ruirui sighed softly, then nodded, "The village chief is right, it is really troublesome for you to take a dog to the city."

After pondering for a while, Ning Ruirui said again: "Why don't I help you find news about your mother, and if we find her, we will take you out by the way."

"Sister Ruirui, can Uncle Wolf really not stay in the city?" Lan Lan asked again, she now knew Ning Ruirui's name, and started calling her sister.

"It's not entirely true, there is still a place to stay, but it's more troublesome, and you can't keep it in the wild. You have to tie it with a rope when you go out." Ning Ruirui explained that wolfdogs are generally not allowed to go out on the street. , Take a step back, even if you can go to the street, you must hold the rope, otherwise you will definitely scare others.

"Sister Ruirui, then I won't go to the city." Lan Lan shook her head, "I won't tie Uncle Wolf, and I won't leave him in the mountains to go out alone."

"Okay, Lan Lan, I'll talk about what you can't get out later, I'll help you find your mother first." Ning Ruirui can actually understand Lan Lan's thoughts. For her, this wolf dog is her now. She no longer treats her as a dog like her closest relative. In essence, she already treats this wolfdog as a human being. Naturally, she can't tie her relatives down.

Although Ning Ruirui herself is not such a dog-loving person, she can understand Lan Lan's thoughts, so it is normal for Lan Lan to choose not to leave now, but if she can really find Lan Lan's mother, maybe Lan Lan will also change her mind, so she is not in a hurry to let Lan Lan decide to leave with her now.

At this moment, if Ning Ruirui felt something, she turned her head to look at the gate of the yard, and then she saw an old man in plain clothes standing there.

"Grandpa Village Chief." Lan Lan's voice sounded at this moment, and Ning Ruirui immediately knew the identity of the old man.

"Lanlan, you're eating." The village chief's voice was very gentle, and then he looked at Ning Ruirui, "This must be Miss Ning from the city, right?"

"Hello, village chief, I'm Ning Ruirui." Ning Ruirui wanted to stand up, but she couldn't, the reason was simple, her slender waist was being hugged by Xia Tian, ​​so she couldn't get up.

"Miss Ning, I have something I want to talk to you alone, is that okay?" The old village head glanced at Lan Lan and asked.

"Of course no problem." Ning Ruirui nodded, then pinched Xia Tian, ​​"You let me go first."

Xia Tian really let go of Ning Ruirui this time, and Ning Ruirui got up and walked out of the yard, and then walked ten meters away with the village chief, and did not go far.

"Village chief, tell me, what's the matter?" Ning Ruirui was quite polite to the village chief, the reason is actually quite simple, just now Lan Lan said that the village chief is a nice person.

"Miss Ning, I'll just say it straight. I just heard you say that you want to help Lan Lan find her mother. If you can find her mother, that's of course the best, but if you can't find it..." the village head lowered his voice, " And please don't tell Lan Lan that you can't find it, you can just not reply to the message, so that even if Lan Lan is disappointed with you, she still has hope in her heart."

"Village Chief, I actually understand what you mean, but you seem to already feel that I can't find Lanlan's mother?" Ning Ruirui frowned slightly.

"Miss Ning, there are some things you don't quite understand. Let me just say this. Based on what I know about Lan Lan's mother, if she can come back, it is impossible for her not to come back." The village chief sighed, "She loves this very much. Daughter, before she left, she even gave me a lot of money to help take care of Lan Lan, otherwise she wouldn't feel at ease leaving Lan Lan alone at home, so..."

The village chief didn't continue, but Ning Ruirui understood what he meant, but she still asked: "Village chief, do you mean that Lan Lan's mother is no longer alive?"
