When Mr. Guo called Xiaotong and the others back, Wu Xiaoqi realized that it was not because they were bored that they went to the circle to play, but because they were forced to go there.

If I had known this was the case, I would have been too lazy to agree to go and ask you to run a few more laps as a punishment for not talking to me. Wu Xiaoqi was rarely stingy. He never thought that he would have such thoughts that he would not care about because others didn't talk to him.

Mr. Guo did not tell them what Wu Xiaoqi wanted to compete with them, but just said with concern: "Everyone take a hot bath and don't get sick." Then he moved into the house with a bench, leaving Xiaole and Xiaotong who were breathing heavily and unable to straighten their waists, plus Wu Xiaoqi who was watching the fun outside the house.

Perhaps it was because he had seen Wu Xiaoqi talking with Mr. Guo for a long time, and he thought that it was Wu Xiaoqi's credit for being called back in advance, so Xiaotong's eyes looked at Wu Xiaoqi differently than usual. He was able to come back early before he finished the round. This was the first time in more than a year.

"Wu Fei, what did you say to Mr. Guo? Today I am so kind, let me and Xiaole go together?"

This is the first thing Xiaotong said to Wu Xiaoqi these days, which made him feel a little proud, and he was muttering in his heart: If you have the ability, don’t talk to him!

Although he thought so in his heart, he was still afraid that this guy would really ignore him like he had been the same as he had been the previous two days, so he smiled and said, "Actually, I didn't say anything, just sighed that the weather was too cold and people were easily sick." Since Mr. Guo didn't tell them what to do to compete, then don't talk too much, why don't you tell a small lie and let Xiaotong owe him a favor?

"You have a conscience and have not let my care these days down."

What Xiaotong said made Wu Xiaoqi very unhappy and thought to herself: You have ignored me for several days, and even moved the bedding far away when you sleep, so how can you talk about taking care of me? However, Wu Xiaoqi thought about it again and again that the meals and nutritional soups are not bad every day, and it can be considered taking care of me. After all, I don’t owe me anything.

"Yes, yes, yes, thanks to Brother Xiaotong's care these days." Wu Xiaoqi talked to Xiaotong in his mouth, but his eyes looked at Xiaole. Although he was not as embarrassed as Xiaotong, he was still very dirty. The originally pale patient face under the hat was also full of blush at the moment, looking very healthy.

Wu Xiaoqi really wanted to hear Xiaole say thank you. After all, it was him who asked Mr. Guo to stop the two of them from running around in circles. Although Wu Xiaoqi felt guilty when he had this idea, for no reason, he just wanted to hear Xiaole's voice.

The more I look forward to it, the more disappointed he was. The words of thanks were not shown. Xiaole just glanced at Wu Xiaoqi, then kicked off the mud-covered shoes on his feet, and then entered his room.

Wu Xiaoqi couldn't say clearly what Xiaole looked at him meant, is it a thank you? Or is it that he didn't appreciate it?

"Wu Fei, I'm so tired, dirty and cold. Please help me cook two pots of hot water and give me and Xiaole a bath."

Wu Xiaoqi was thinking about it, but Xiaotong spoke again. He was not polite at all and assigned a small task to Wu Xiaoqi.

I have lived alone for several years, let alone boiling water, even if I ask Wu Xiaoqi to make a table of food, it is very common. He did not refuse and returned to the house to make a fire and boil water.

Seeing Xiaotong pick up hot water into Xiaole's house one by one, Wu Xiaoqi was a little puzzled. He didn't understand why he had to do this too much. Wash it in the kitchen? It's all the masters, who is afraid of whom to see what?

"Why are you..."

Wu Xiaoqi was about to ask for the doubts in his heart, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xiaotong: "This is a place to cook and eat!"

Wu Xiaoqi was puzzled again. Before he could say it, this guy seemed to have guessed what he was going to say.

At night, Wu Xiaoqi finally became less bored. As soon as Xiaotong opened up, she couldn't get into the trend. The two of them said all night, and Wu Xiaoqi also roughly learned about the current situation in Ermashan from his words.

Erma Mountain is located west of Baoding, with a mountain road dozens of miles away from Laiyuan County, and belongs to the rest of Baishi Mountain. There are two leaders in the mountain village, the second and third heads. There are less than 200 people on the mountain, some of which are still family members, and there are only 1230 brothers. They have occupied Erma Mountain for several years and do not go down the mountain very much, let alone disturb the people. Therefore, whether it is the time of the National Army or the current time of the Japanese and puppet army, Erma Mountain is very stable. In Xiaotong's words, this is a pure land, which is very suitable for living at home.

While the two were chatting, Wu Xiaoqi asked Xiaotong and Mr. Guo about it, but this guy was very strict and didn't say anything.

This further increased Wu Xiaoqi's curiosity. He still clearly remembered that when he first came, he was intimidated by the third leader, and that person had a very respect for Mr. Guo.

At first, Wu Xiaoqi thought that Mr. Guo was the leader of the village, but he was denied by Xiaotong at that time. Based on his understanding of Xiaotong these days, this guy basically won’t lie, so Mr. Guo really would be like he said, not the leader of Ermashan village.

Since he is not the leader of the village, why do the people in the village respect him so much? Even the rude three leaders of the village were polite to him. There must be some secret in this, but Xiaotong didn't know it.

In the next few days, Wu Xiaoqi was still able to see Xiaole and Xiaotong running around on time.

Wu Xiaoqi was originally disdainful, but gradually he discovered the name.

In the first two days, Xiaole and Xiaotong just ran away. On the third day, Wu Xiaoqi clearly saw that some things were tied to their feet. On the fifth day, they had another cloth bag on their backs. Although they didn't know what was in the cloth bag, Wu Xiaoqi felt that the stuff was not light when it was filled with bulging and their expressions.

After discovering these, Wu Xiaoqi became increasingly unable to understand. He didn't understand whether Mr. Guo was crazy or whether Xiaole and Xiaotong were masochists. The cold weather was full of mud, and he was still running around in a circle that was still unmoved.

Thanks to the fact that Xiaotong and Xiaole seemed to have become accustomed to this kind of life. They were exhausted the day before, and continued this abuse the next day. During this period, Wu Xiaoqi asked Xiaotong more than once what was tied on her feet and what was in a cloth bag on her back, but the answer was Xiaotong's light snoring.

Two more days later, the sky finally opened its eyes, and the temperature gradually rose, and it was no longer so cold.
