Gu Jiao returned to Bishui Alley.
Xiao Jingkong finished school early that day, waiting at the door, looking out anxiously.
Upon seeing Gu Jiao, he dashing over excitedly: "Jiaojiao!"
"Mmm." Gu Jiao took his chubby little hand and walked inside. He looked back over Gu Jiao's shoulder with an expectant glance.
Gu Jiao paused a bit, and asked: "Are you waiting for your brother-in-law?"
Xiao Liulang was in the countryside. If things went quickly, he would return at the end of the month; if slower, it would be next month.
Xiao Jingkong, with his big eyes wide open, earnestly responded, "I... I… I'm not!"
Gu Jiao raised the corner of her lips, "Soon, your brother-in-law will be back."
"Ah." Xiao Jingkong sighed in a grown-up fashion. "I am worried he might not handle things well. It is his first time on an official mission, and I didn't get a chance to give him advice."
Gu Jiao chuckled.
Are all children's conversations interesting like this?
