the beginning of the end

Before four o'clock, the sky was completely dark, the snow outside still did not stop, and it was getting bigger and bigger, the whole ground had already turned into a piece of snow white.

Seeing that it was so dark and her sons hadn't come back yet, Mrs. Mu was a little anxious, and looked back and forth at the door. Even Shen Xi, who was sitting on the side of the door, frowned slightly. He wasn't I am worried about the safety of Mu Qiangguo and the others, but I am afraid that they will miss the closing time of the base. Now the base has formulated a series of rules. After the time passes, the gate of the base will be closed. No matter who it is, they can only wait for the next day You can only enter after the gate of the base is opened.

It's getting dark so early now, and I don't know if the closing time of the base will be brought forward.

Seeing that his father's brows were frowning, Mu Xibao lay on his father's lap, tiptoed, touched it with his small hands, and gently smoothed his father's brows, "Daddy, the wrinkle is smoothed out, baby."

"Good son." Seeing his son being so considerate, Shen Xi hugged him and kissed him, and his mood immediately improved.

"Daddy, daddy`" Mu Xibao laughed when Shen Xi kissed him, and pointed to the door with one hand. The little guy hadn't seen his dad all day, and after lunch, he didn't need anyone to take care of him. Stool, sitting at the door and waiting.

Because the wind and snow were too heavy, the gates were closed. The two children in the family were told by Mrs. Mu not to open the gate. The little guy remembered it and did not open the gate, so he stuck his little ears to the gate from time to time. Listening to the movement outside. All afternoon, it was repeated over and over again, never tired of it. The two adults were tired for him, coaxing the little guy to play with the big girl. After a while, the little guy went over to listen with a stool.

"Father will be back in a while, is the baby hungry?" Shen Xi touched his son's two small ears, it was a little cold, and planned to make earmuffs for his son, as well as gloves.

"I'm hungry." Afraid that Daddy wouldn't believe it, the baby touched his sagging belly and nodded to show that he was really hungry.

"What to eat?" In order to cultivate his son's autonomy, Shen Xi asked his son directly, wanting him to make up his own mind.

Mu Xibao replied without thinking: "Sweet grandma, and Guoguo, I want to eat big Guoguo." Grandma, of course, is the milk that Mu Qiangguo usually prepares for his son. The little guy likes to drink it since he was a child, especially It is a snack made of milk, and I like it very much. As for the big fruit, it should be the apple that I gave the little guy yesterday.

Shen Xi picked an apple from the apple tree in the space. Mu Qiangguo knew that his son liked to eat the apple tree, so he found it outside the base, and then transplanted the tree directly into the space. Up to now, it has grown The apple is big, crisp and sweet. Just this one, two little guys can't finish it.

When Mu Xibao saw the apple, he grabbed it with his hands and insisted on holding it by himself. Shen Xi let him hold it, and took out two boxes of milk from the space, and gave one box to the big girl, intending to let the two little ones drink first Sweet belly. He coaxed his son with another box of milk, exchanged it for the big apple that his son was holding, and then slowly peeled the apple with a small knife.

With food, Mu Xibao squinted his eyes happily, drank the milk in his hand and went to play with Da Ya, as for the big apple, he should forget about it.

"It's getting dark today, how come Qiangguo and the others haven't come back yet." Old lady Mu came out of the kitchen again and looked at the door and said, still holding a knife for cutting vegetables in her hand. Judging by the fine powder on the knife, it should be from the cut meat.

"Mom, don't worry. With the power of Qiangguo and them, nothing will happen. It is very likely that they were delayed by something." Shen Xi stopped peeling apples to do more, looked at the old lady seriously and comforted him. After running in, he is also used to how to get along with Mrs. Mu.

"I know they're all right. It's just my heart. I'm always worried when I don't see them come back safely. Besides, it's getting dark too early, and it's snowing so much outside. I just have to worry about it." I am worried about them, and I don't know what they are eating out for lunch." Mrs. Mu will be directly worried about her son's lunch. After hearing this, Shen Xi really doesn't know what to say, so she can only continue cutting Apple, after a few people come back, the old lady will naturally stop thinking about it.

"Oh, I'm still cutting meat, so I have to prepare all the dishes quickly. They must eat cold food outside at noon, and they need to eat warm food at night, so that they are full." Old lady Mu looked at it. With the knife that was cutting vegetables in his hand, he hurried back to the kitchen.

Shen Xi really wants Mu Qiangguo and the others to come back soon.

It's a pity that the dishes that Mrs. Mu put on the table were going to be cold, and it was almost six o'clock when the sky was already dark, and Mu Qiangguo and the others arrived home.

Standing outside the door, several people shook off the snowflakes on their bodies before entering the house.

When Mrs. Mu heard the movement, she opened the door early, and when she saw four people walking in, she hurriedly checked the bodies of the four people one by one, and finally she was relieved when she saw that none of them were injured.

"Who is this child?" At this moment, the old lady Mu finally found that Mu Qiangguo was carrying a person on her shoulders. Shen Xi had also discovered it a long time ago, and the two of them looked at Mu Qiangguo with questioning eyes.

I have been busy with tasks all day, and I don't have time to ask my elder brother what is going on with this child alone. Now, after listening to Mrs. Mu's question, Mu Jianguo looked at his elder brother very curiously.

"Brother Mu caught this child in the town." Before Mu Qiangguo could explain, Shen Zhi spoke first.

"I caught it." Mu Jianguo became even more curious.

"I caught it, how did you bring it back?" Old Madam Mu asked directly, but Shen Xi focused her attention on the child, thinking that there must be something special about it, that Qiangguo would bring this child back.

"This child's supernatural ability is very powerful." Thinking that one of his feet was almost crippled by a child, Shen Zhi still has lingering fears.

"Moreover, this child has more than one ability. Even Big Brother Mu managed to catch him with great difficulty." Shen Zhi continued.

With multiple abilities, Shen Xi stared at the sleeping child, his eyes lit up.

Mu Qiangguo noticed Shen Xi's bright eyes, and knew that he was right to bring this child back.

"Since you have brought it back, let's keep it for now." Mrs. Mu saw that the child was so skinny that he was dressed in tatters as if he hadn't got any clothes on such a cold day. Hey, I'm afraid I haven't bathed for a long time. And the age should be less than ten years old. Thinking about the two children in the family, I can't help but feel a little bit of compassion. I plan to keep it to observe and see. If it is bad, let the eldest son send it out.

Mrs. Mu felt that since the eldest son chose to bring the child back, there must be a way to subdue him, and he would not be able to hurt the family members.

The reason why Mu Qiangguo chose to bring this child back was, firstly, because he felt that the awakened ability of this child was very good, and secondly, it was for his own precious son. If such a young child is properly raised, he will definitely become his son. Help, after the son grows up, they will feel more at ease.

At this time, when Mu Xibao saw his father came back, he stopped drinking the milk, so he rushed over immediately. If Shen Xi hadn't been quick to hug him, the baby would have rushed to Mu Qiangguo to hug his father's thigh I don't know my father's good intentions at all.

"Daddy hug, the baby wants daddy to hug." Mu Xibao struggled against Shen Xi's body, reaching out to Mu Qiangguo to hug him.

"Baby, daddy just came back from the outside, and now he is cold, I will hug you later, okay?" Mu Qiangguo smiled at his son. He originally wanted to squat down and kiss his son, but he still had a person on him. Convenience, can only give up.

'Yeah." Mu Xibao just thought about it after not seeing his father for a day, and after hearing what his father said, he stopped making trouble, obediently let his father hug and feed the apple, and he was happy after a while.

Seeing his son becoming so sensible and obedient, Mu Qiangguo was also very happy.

"The dishes on the table are a bit cold. The kitchen is burning hot water. You go and wash them first. I will bring the dishes to the kitchen to warm them up. They will be ready to eat in a while. By the way, Qiangguo, this child, do you want a mother?" Help me tidy up. The clothes on this body must not be worn anymore." Mrs. Mu was holding two dishes in her hand and wanted to go to the kitchen to heat them up, but suddenly thought that her eldest son had brought a child back, so she hurriedly turned her head and said.

"Mom, you don't need to worry about this child, I will help him prepare clothes." Mu Qiangguo replied.

"Okay, then I'll go to the kitchen to warm up the dishes, and you guys have to clean up quickly." Since the son can handle it well, Mrs. Mu doesn't care about it.

Taking a look at the dishes on the table, he found that they were all delicious in the evening. Shen Zhi happily took Mo Cheng back to the room to clean up. After Mu Jianguo also said a few words to his daughter, he went up to the second floor.

All of a sudden, only Da Ya and Shen Xi's family were left in the living room, as well as an unknown child.

After carrying it all the way back, Mu Qiangguo put down the child on his body, saw the child's eyelashes trembling slightly, and said, "Since you are awake, please open your eyes."

After finishing speaking, Mu Qiangguo directly put the child on the ground, probably because he knew that he was pretending to be asleep and was discovered. As soon as the child opened his eyes, he jumped far away from Mu Qiangguo and stared fiercely at Mu Qiangguo. He was actually in the car He had already woken up earlier, and he naturally heard and felt everything that the family said just now. The family will not hurt him now.

Moreover, the child clearly knew in his heart that this person in front of him was very powerful. Before, he only needed to hide himself, and no one else could find out, but this person was able to catch him.

"Little guy, can you tell me what your name is? Why are you in that building?" Mu Qiangguo saw that the child was always showing a defensive expression to himself, which would irritate him, so he had no choice but to stand still and speak in the same tone. a few points lower.

After hearing Mu Qiangguo's words, the child still stared at him warily and did not speak.

On the contrary, Mu Xibao became very curious about this little brother who appeared out of nowhere, happily finished eating the remaining apple in his mouth quickly, and then took another small piece of cut apple, which he just asked his father for Yes, I squeezed it and handed it to the direction where the child was standing, and shouted with a smile: "Brother, I'll eat it for you, Guoguo."

The child listened to the baby's words, looked at the apple handed over, and then glanced at the child's smiling face, it was pink and very cute.

"Brother, eat." After a while, I don't know why the little brother didn't take it, Mu Xibao's hands were tired from pinching, but he still raised his hand without giving up, persistently wanting to hand it to the little brother to let him eat.

The child stared into the baby's eyes, and unexpectedly became dazed, but still stood still. Shen Xi and Mu Qiangguo watched their son's movements, and then looked at the child's reaction, and kept silent in a tacit understanding without speaking.

Finally, after Mu Xibao called his brother again, the child finally moved and slowly approached the baby.

Mu Xibao laughed happily when he saw that his brother still ate his fruit in the end.

After eating the apples, the child finally stopped rejecting Mu Qiangguo's approach. As for taking a bath and changing clothes, he had to be accompanied by the baby. Mu Qiangguo did not expect that his son would harvest a fruit with only a small piece of apple. the heart of this child.
