Chapter 207 Education, Thanks and Notice
"grandmother?"

The baby's soft voice sounded a little confusing.

Grandma Zhou didn't say anything. It was obvious that her emotions were too intense for her to speak for a while.

Old Zhou touched the baby's head, his eyes turned red, and his other hand hanging by his side was clenched tightly, with thick blue veins protruding on the back of his strong hand.

But the action of touching the baby's head is extremely gentle.

"Baby, we are worried about you."

"Baby, you worried me to death."

Grandma Wang finally uttered something vaguely, her hoarse voice choked with sobs.

"It'll be good to come back, it'll be good to come back."

Old Zhou looked at his grandson, and the real touch of his hands gradually calmed his fluctuating emotions.

"Okay, Yingzi, don't scare the baby."

Mr. Zhou raised his other hand that was hanging by his side and gently patted his wife's trembling shoulders.

"Why is grandma crying?"

The baby felt the wetness on his shoulders and looked at Mr. Zhou and Xiao Xiao helplessly. His little hands struggled to free himself from grandma's embrace. He imitated his grandfather and patted grandma's shoulders like a little adult. "Grandma, don't cry. Who bullied you? Baby will help you teach him a lesson!"

The baby said angrily, with an expression that seemed to be taking on too much responsibility.

After saying that, he clenched his fist and waved it.

"Haha~"

Mr. Zhou couldn't help but laugh, and the gloom in his voice was gone, and it became bright and cheerful.

Grandma Zhou also raised her head and slightly distanced herself from the baby. The smile on her face had not yet fully blossomed. The words she wanted to say had already reached her throat, but she swallowed them down. Another sentence came out of her mouth, "Baby, what's the matter with your scars?"

Grandma Zhou's expression revealed some worry and heartache. She looked at the baby's body carefully and found that in addition to the face, there were several fine scratches of varying lengths on the baby's exposed arms and legs.

The red scratches are particularly conspicuous on the baby's fair skin.

Grandma Zhou gently touched the scars, fortunately none of them were deep.

"Baby, what's going on?"

"Baby, does it hurt?"

Mr. Zhou and Grandma Zhou said in unison.

Zhou Laoben's relaxed expression became tense again.

"It doesn't hurt, baby."

The baby shook his head and stretched his arms to show that he was fine.

"These are scratches from branches."

Xiao Xiao, who had been considerately giving the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren space to spend time together, now began to explain.

"The baby must have left the park through the woods and bushes."

Mr. and Mrs. Zhou suddenly realized that after taking a closer look, these thin red scars did look like they were made by something like a tree branch.

They couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

They almost thought the baby was bullied.

But, "Baby, you are not behaving well. Didn't I tell you not to play in the woods or bushes by yourself? You can get hurt easily."

Grandma Zhou touched the scars on the baby's face with some heartache.

"Weren't you playing with your friends? Why did you suddenly run to the woods? And even leave the park?"

Mr. Zhou was a little confused. Bao Bao was always a well-behaved and considerate child, and seldom did anything to make them worry.

They have told me before that the baby would never do something that is not allowed.

"Yeah~ I have to chase the tail~"

The baby now realized that he seemed to have done something wrong, and he explained weakly to his finger with a guilty conscience.

"Tail?"

Mr. and Mrs. Zhou were confused again. What was this?
"It should be some animal, perhaps a dog with a long tail."

Interpreter Xiao Xiao is online again.

"The baby was attracted and chased after it."

"Then we lost track of him and ended up in a strange place."

"But the baby was very well behaved and didn't move from where he was." "So the place where the baby was found is actually not far from here, but on a somewhat hidden street."

Mr. and Mrs. Zhou finally understood the reason for the baby's disappearance. They couldn't help but laugh and cry. They suspected that the child was abducted by human traffickers and were extremely worried. But it turned out that the child actually left the park by himself, chasing after a dog.

How can a child catch up with a dog?

Later the dog failed to catch up and the man got lost again.

Fortunately, the child still remembered what they had told him before: if you get lost, don't walk around alone, just stay where you are and wait for them to find you.

"Baby, next time you can't leave without saying a word."

"You have to tell grandpa and grandma wherever you go, okay?"

"Grandpa and grandma will be very worried if they can't find the baby."

Mr. and Mrs. Zhou took turns to educate the baby.

This incident must be taught to the baby to prevent him from making the same mistake again next time.

I was lucky this time, Xiaoxiao found me so quickly, but I’m not sure about next time.

Just because nothing happened this time doesn’t mean nothing will happen next time.

Good luck often only comes once.

"Ah."

The baby nodded obediently, looking a little frustrated and unhappy.

"However, the baby still remembered what grandpa and grandma said. After getting lost, he did not wander around but waited at the same place. He did a good job."

Grandma Zhou touched the baby's drooping head and praised him.

If not for this, Xiao Xiao might not have found the baby so quickly.

"Hmm~"

The baby narrowed his eyes and smiled widely.

The old couple Zhou couldn't help laughing. Smiles spread across their faces and their brows were full of kindness.

……

Only after Mr. and Mrs. Zhou applied ointment to the scratches on the baby's body did they finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Xiaoxiao, thank you, thank you so much."

The old couple Zhou bowed seriously to Xiao Xiao and did not stand up for a long time.

Xiao Xiao hurriedly reached out to help them up, but the stubborn old couple refused to get up.

The baby, who had just taken the medicine and was "ordered" to sit on the sofa, tilted his head strangely, not understanding what his grandparents were doing.

But he followed suit, stood up on the sofa and bowed deeply, but accidentally fell over.

"Haha~"

Hearing the noise, Xiao Xiao and the others looked over and couldn't help but burst out laughing.

……

Because of this little accident, the old couple Zhou finally got up.

Xiao Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and smiled helplessly: "Grandpa Zhou, Grandma Wang, why are you still so polite to me?"

"It's good that the baby is back. You two elders can rest assured now."

"It's okay to have a good relationship, but you still have to say thank you."

Mr. Zhou was very serious about this, and the more he looked at Xiaoxiao, the more he liked the kid.

"Yes, Xiaoxiao, the baby was lost and we were so worried. If it weren't for you, the baby wouldn't have been found so quickly."

Grandma Zhou's face was filled with gratitude, and the look she gave Xiaoxiao couldn't be more kind.

Xiao Xiao became more and more helpless and had to change the subject.

"Grandpa Zhou, Grandma Wang, please quickly notify the police and the other people in the family that the baby is back. Tell them not to look for him anymore."

"Yes, inform them immediately."

"Yingzi, you call the boss and the others, and I'll call the police."

"it is good."
