After Xiao Fubao’s Life Was Stolen, He Became the Favorite of Everyone In the Capital

Chapter 174: Riding on a boat in a dream

The carriage was already out of the city gate when it was still light, and this time it was still entering the capital together with the caravan.

Niu Niu nestled in Zhang Yunniang's arms, sleeping soundly.

Gu Mingda reached out and held down the curtain of the carriage to prevent the cold wind from blowing in and freezing the child.

Zhang Yunniang said softly: "With Niu Niu by my side, I feel at peace."

As she spoke, she brought her face close to Niu Niu, smelling the unique fragrance of the little girl, and all the depression in her heart was swept away.

During the time when mother and daughter were separated, Zhang Yunniang's heart was always worried, always worried that her child would get cold or hot outside. Or maybe you were wronged and got into trouble.

Zhang Yunniang also knew that this mentality was unacceptable, but she couldn't change it.

"You have the deepest feelings for her. This is human nature." Gu Mingda comforted her softly.

The carriage traveled from dawn to sunrise and stopped outside a post station.

The group stopped to rest. Gu Mingda and Sun Jiaxing looked at each other. They both remembered what happened at the inn during their last trip.

This time, the sun was shining brightly above our heads, but there was no disturbance at all. After lunch, the group continued their journey.

"When we arrive in Dengzhou, we will abandon the car and board a boat. Has Niuniu ever been on a boat?" Zhang Yunniang asked her daughter in a soft voice.

Niu Niu tilted her head and thought about it carefully: "I should have sat there."

Zhang Yuniang couldn't help but laugh when she heard this. She had watched Niu Niu grow up. Guang'an County is neither near a lake nor a sea. In her impression, Niu Niu had never been on a boat.

"When did Guobao take the boat?" Zhang Yunniang asked.

"I sat there in my dream." Niu Niu answered seriously.

Gu Zhao sneered and said, "Niuniu, sitting in a dream doesn't count."

Niu Niu said: "I think so. In the dream, I turned into a little baby. The baby was smaller than Changshou. I wore a bellyband, lay in a wooden basin, and floated along the raging river. After drifting for a long time, a wave hit me and I landed! "

Niuniu's description was extremely cute, but Zhang Yunniang's heart clenched when she heard it.

The description in Niu Niu's dream is consistent with the rumor that Mr. Li threw the child away.

Gu Zhao didn't know that this might be Niu Niu's real experience. He was still laughing: "Niu Niu, I said that there are countless things you can do in dreams. Such big waves in the river hit you. If you were really a little baby, you would have been beaten long ago. I’m drowning in the water, how can I still go ashore?”

Niu Niu was not angry after hearing this, but smiled and said: "In dreams, anything is always possible. Last time you dreamed that you would become a high official."

Gu Zhao shrank in fear when he heard this and glanced at Gu Mingda secretly, fearing that his father would force him to study and improve.

Gu Mingda was angry when he saw his youngest son looking so worthless, but now that he was still on the road, he was not disappointed and pretended not to hear.

"Mom, Third Brother said that taking a boat in a dream does not count. Do you think it does?" Niu Niu asked, raising her little head.

Zhang Yunniang stretched out her hand to straighten her daughter's slightly messy hair and said, "Mother, please stop this silly lawsuit. You can discuss it yourself."

Although Gu Zhao didn't think that dreams could count, he loved his sister and said helplessly: "Okay, since you care about this matter so much, I agree that it can be forgotten."

Niuniu's face showed happiness and she said sweetly: "Third brother is the best."

When Gu Zhao heard this, he was immediately satisfied, as if he had been coaxed, and he replied belatedly: "My sister is also the best."

Niuniu asked: "Has Third Brother ever been on a boat?"

Gu Zhao immediately became less satisfied.

"No... not yet..." The child had a strange desire to win. Because he had never been on a boat, Gu Zhao suddenly felt as if he was a head shorter than his sister.

Seeing him like this, Niu Niu immediately said righteously: "Then what I was sitting on in my dream doesn't count. Third brother and I are the same!"

Gu Zhao's smile returned to his face and he said: "Okay, okay, we are the same."

Gu Zhao mysteriously took out a bag of crumbled pastries and brought it to Niu Niu with a face full of pain: "I'll give you half."

But Niu Niu knew better than anyone how greedy Gu Zhao was, and immediately said: "I'm not hungry, third brother, you can eat it yourself."

When Gu Zhao heard that his sister didn't want it, he was very relieved, and then he said as if he thought of something: "Niuniu, you don't want it yourself, but it's not that I'm stingy and won't give it to you. I'm still a good brother, right?"

Niu Niu nodded and said, "It's me who is picky about food, not my brother who is stingy."

After hearing this, Gu Zhao couldn't help but feel awkward in his heart, and said, "I'll bring your favorite snacks next time!"

Niuniu nodded vigorously.

Zhang Yuniang watched with a smile as Gu Zhao was coaxed by Niu Niu and became dizzy. Both of them rarely interfered in the relationship between the brother and sister.

But without any warning, the people in the carriage suddenly heard a violent cry of children.

"It's longevity!" Niu Niu immediately recognized her brother's cry.

Zhang Yunniang couldn't help but show worry on her face.

Changshou's crying had no intention of stopping, but instead became more and more urgent.

Niu Niu's little face wrinkled up. Seeing Gu Mingda seeming to get off the carriage, she immediately said: "Dad, I'll go take a look too!"

Gu Mingda rarely refused Niu Niu's reasonable request. The carriage stopped and he carried his daughter outside the Sun family's carriage.

The cry of a child could be heard through the carriage curtain, making people nearby feel very anxious.

The caravan sent people over to inquire.

Ms. Li in the carriage also blamed herself. The child was less than three months old. She was originally advised to wait until the child was one year old before going to Beijing, but she insisted on going to Beijing with her husband.

Now that the carriage has only been on the road for less than a day, the child cannot be coaxed.

At this time, Mrs. Li could not wait to return along the way, but the thought of facing her unreasonable mother-in-law and her two sisters-in-law who were always waiting for adoption made her feel uncomfortable.

At this time, Sun Jiaxing also had the idea of ​​sending his wife back, but he did not say it directly. Instead, he held up the carriage curtain and asked, "Do you know why you are crying? Do you want to drink milk? Has the nanny tried to coax him?"

There were actually a lot of people in Li's carriage, but at this time, the wet nurse and the maids and women could not do anything to live a long life without stopping crying.

What's even more frightening is that Changshou cried so hard that Lady He's daughter, the little baby girl who barely cried, also started crying uncontrollably.

While Ms. Li was feeling uncomfortable, Mrs. He was shrouded in despair. At this time, she could not coax the two children. She felt as if she was holding her daughter and standing by the river again. As long as she took a step forward, the mother and daughter would meet again. There is no way to survive.

Mrs. He felt that the surroundings were gray, except for a crisp sound that cut through the surrounding fog.

"Shou Changshou, why are you crying?" Niu Niu asked outside the carriage.

The crying in the carriage paused for a moment.
