The fire of hope that had been ignited by the man died down again.
"you… "
He was about to ask about Shen Ling'er's mother's situation in detail, but the guard in gray had already returned with a large bag of things.
Before I even opened the bag, I smelled the sweet aroma of pastries.
Shen Ling'er's eyes suddenly widened, she jumped out of bed barefoot, and eagerly looked at the snacks bought by the guard in gray.
The town is not big, and there are no famous pastries. There are only four common pastries: plum blossom cake, water chestnut cake, scallion crispy cake and sweet-scented osmanthus glutinous rice roll.
"Eat it." As soon as the man finished speaking, the little boy grabbed a piece of water chestnut cake and put it into his mouth.
"It's not delicious." He only took one bite and then frowned.
Compared with the water chestnut cake made by my mother, it is far behind.
However, he was hungry, so he ate most of the unpalatable water chestnut cakes. As for the other three snacks, he only took one bite.
Picky little devil!
The guard in gray slandered.
The man was thoughtful, looking at the four snacks, and his eyes fell on the water chestnut cake.
He slowly picked up a piece of water chestnut cake, slowly put it into his mouth, and took a slow bite.
Every movement is slow.
The guard in gray lowered his eyes, feeling worried and uncomfortable.
The right hand hanging by his side clenched into a fist, regretting it.
I shouldn’t buy water chestnut cake!
I know that when my master sees the water chestnut cake, it will bring back memories of the past. Is my brain flooded
It's all this little devil's fault!
The guard in gray raised his eyes and glared at Shen Linger.
Shen Ling'er didn't notice it. His big and flexible eyes were fixed on the man's face, looking at him again and again.
So lovely.
The handsome uncle is just good-looking.
He held his chin and stared intently.
The man who was eating the water chestnut cake and thinking about something was startled.
He raised his eyes and looked at the boy.
"Why are you looking at me?" he asked calmly.
"Uncle is so good-looking." Shen Ling'er blurted out, "How about you become my father?"
"What!"
It was not only the men who were surprised, but also the guards in gray.
"Your father?" The man's face was still expressionless, but there was a smile in his eyes, "Where is your father?"
Shen Ling'er shook her head, and suddenly her mood waned. If she wanted to recognize her father, it didn't matter if she said it herself, her mother would have to agree.
But when he thought about his mother not knowing where he was, he wanted to cry.
"Pretty uncle, promise to help me find my mother!" He pulled the man's sleeve.
When the man saw that he didn't answer his question, he thought that the child must have something unspeakable on his mind.
Maybe he is a child without a father.
A feeling of pity arose in his heart.
He stroked Shen Ling'er's hair.
"Go and post notices everywhere in the city and write down the address of the inn. If the child's mother sees it, she might find her way here." He ordered the guard in gray.
There is no other way.
Without any clues, trying to find the child's mother is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
However, according to his judgment, there was only this town within a few hundred miles, and the place where the child was found was not too far from this town, and could be reached in half a day's journey.
"Send another team of people to search where the child was found to see if they can find his mother." The man added.
His eyes suddenly fell on a pile of gray-blue cloth strips in the corner of the room, and his heart moved.
Could it be that the woman who bandaged her wound last night was this little guy's mother
The place was deserted and deserted, but the woman appeared there. It was such a coincidence that this little guy was also nearby.
The time and place are all coincidences!
