When spring comes to the east, three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
At this time, Gu Tian has become a little lucky dumpling. While other people's three-year-old children are still piling mud at the door of their house, the Gu family's three-year-old baby has secretly carried his family up the mountain on his back early.
Stone Village is backed by a large mountain. There are all kinds of game on the mountain, as well as rare medicinal materials.
Gu Tian is familiar with various medicinal materials. Ever since she accidentally awakened to space a year ago, there has been a red circle mark between the ring finger and little finger of her right hand.
Everything in the space, like other travelers, has a spiritual spring and a room filled with various medicinal materials, some prepared and some unprocessed. Various rare medicinal materials are grown in the fields outside, and other crops are also planted. The place.
Just because she is too young, she can't do many things, she can only do some simple things.
Gu Tian climbed the mountain with difficulty on her short legs. In the past, she always wandered at the foot of the mountain. Now she felt that the time was ripe and the ginseng in the space could be sold.
In the past few years, the Gu family has been a bare-bones family. The eldest brother works as an errand in the government office and has now been promoted to a shop owner. There has been no news from the second brother, and the third sister's two sons were enlightened last year. The fourth brother passed the scholar examination three years ago. Originally, the father wanted the fourth brother to continue taking the exam in one go, but the master suggested that the fourth brother go to a private school to study in preparation for this year's spring.
The fifth sister is now well-known in the county. The things she embroiders with her skillful hands are vivid. She also got engaged a year ago and will marry her fourth brother after he finishes high school.
The sixth sister is now fifteen and is not interested in anything but cooking, which is a secret from Mrs. Gu, and Gu Tian brings back some condiments from the mountains from time to time.
Brother Seven is also preparing for the next exam this year.
Gu Tian sighed deeply when she thought of this. If the fourth brother wins the exam, he will definitely go to the capital. If the seventh brother wins the Tongsheng exam, he will also have to take the exam. All these expenses require money.
She clenched her little fists tightly and continued to go into the mountains to dig out various medicinal materials. She was carrying a small backpack specially made for Gu Tian by Mr. Gu.
Inside was a century-old ginseng that she took out from the space.
The Gu family at this time.
Mr. Gu went to his daughter's room early in the morning to wake her up, but after knocking on the door for a long time, there was no movement. In the past, when he knocked, the little man inside would quickly open the door. Why was there no movement today? Could it be?
Mr. Gu suddenly remembered the scene a few days ago when Tianbao pestered him to make a cage.
He hurriedly opened the door, which was not bolted. As soon as he opened the door and went in, he found that the inside was clean and tidy, and the quilt on the bed was folded neatly, but no one was in the room.
"Little one, one, two!" Among the grandchildren, only one, two, three, and four are older. These children take my sister-in-law to play all day long.
The first child belongs to the elder's family, and the second child belongs to the second child's family. The two children heard their grandfather calling them and ran over quickly, followed by a group of cubs.
"What's wrong, grandpa?"
Mr. Gu didn't say anything. He glanced at everyone and found that Tianbao was not there, and his brows furrowed tightly.
"Have you seen your sister-in-law?" The eldest son is at the county government office, the fourth and seventh sons are studying outside, and only a few grandchildren are at home.
The children all shook their heads, "No."
Mr. Gu's frown deepened, and he patted his leg and said he was heartbroken.
He hurriedly ran into the main room again. The children behind him didn't know what happened. The older children guessed it and hurriedly followed their grandfather into the house.
Mrs. Gu in the room is still setting out bowls and chopsticks, and the meal will be served soon.
Mr. Gu ran into the room, took the chopsticks from Mrs. Gu's hand, put them on the table, turned to Mrs. Gu and said, "Did you see when Tianbao went out?"
"Isn't Tianbao here? In the house?" Mrs. Gu replied casually, suddenly realizing something was wrong, "Is Tianbao not in the house?" "There is no one in the house, and the quilts are all folded up!"
"Find someone quickly!"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Gu immediately shouted for everyone to search for the person together. Mr. Gu also went to find a few old men to help search in the village. Looking for someone, and he went into the mountains alone to look for someone.
Tianbao on the other side was wandering in the mountains with her short legs. She had a huge ginseng in the small basket on her back, which was already full. She originally wanted to take out a century-old ginseng. But she found that the mountains were full of treasures.
She casually found a bunch of ginseng nests, one of which was in the basket on her back. The rest were transplanted into the space by her. She was exhausted just from doing all this.
She now really wants to know if this mountain belongs to her.
If not...
forget it, even if not, she can't afford a mountain with her current ability, so she might as well think about how to make money.
Tianbao was still holding an injured little fox in his arms. When he was tired after walking half way, he sat on a dead wood pile with the fox in his arms. After looking around, he realized that he had walked with his head covered and he didn't realize he had walked so far. .
After resting for a while, he held the young fox in his arms and looked for the way down the mountain. However, he did not notice a stone under his feet. When he tripped and fell to the ground, he still protected the young fox in his arms.
Tian Bao sighed secretly, her little arms and legs were sore, she held the young fox's butt, climbed up, and looked down at the culprit who tripped her - a big rock.
The big stone was half as big as her head. The gray stone surface was dull and had a rough texture to the touch.
Tianbao's eyes flashed slightly, and before he could take a closer look, he heard a shout in the distance.
"Tianbao! Tianbao, where are you?"
"Dad! I'm here!"
Tianbao immediately shouted back after hearing the voice. She lowered her head and looked at the big stone at her feet, and quickly squatted down to lift the stone. Moved into space.
After doing all this, Mr. Gu also came over looking for the sound.
Mr. Gu's eyes were red. He walked deeper and deeper into the mountains, and his heart became colder as he walked. Along the way, he begged his grandfather and grandma to pray for Tianbao's safety. Now that he was so close, he couldn't help but feel like crying.
God knows how frightened he was.
"Daddy!"
Tianbao saw her father walking over with red eyes, and she quickly ran towards him with the little fox in her arms. When she ran forward, she had no choice but to stretch out one hand and hug her father's thigh for fear of crushing the little fox.
"Daddy, you're here!"
She raised her big wet eyes and looked at Mr. Gu. Her hair was disheveled, her body was dirty, and there was dirt on her face. She looked like she had rolled in the mud. .
Mr. Gu looked very distressed and blamed himself.
"Dad! Eat carrots!"
Tianbao leaned sideways and brought the small basket in front of his father. Mr. Gu followed suit and took a look. He was stunned on the spot and couldn't say a word for a long time.
