But this is impossible. If she remembers correctly, the child who fell into the water was pushed into the water by Ji Xiukai and Ji Xiuyun, so of course it cannot be Ji Xiukai who fell into the water.

Although she thought so, Mu Daiyao was still somewhat uneasy.

"Thank you, big brother!"

After knowing that the child who fell into the water was not a girl, Ling Qiaoer was obviously relieved and thanked the villager brother very gratefully.

The next second, Ling Qiao'er reacted suddenly and looked at Mu Dai Yao with a panic look on her face. Her heart that had just been put down was raised again, and she hurriedly asked: "Yao Yao, if it is a boy, will it be okay?"

…”

"No, probably not. Good people don't live long, and disasters usually last for thousands of years."

Mu Daiyao interrupted Ling Qiaoer's conjecture, but she did not loosen her brows, but speeded up her steps to rush to the goldfish pond.

In her desperation, she also forgot to ask the system whether the person who fell into the water was Ji Xiukai.

By the time Mu Daiyao and Ling Qiaoer arrived at the goldfish pond, the crowd had already left in twos and threes, so they saw the person they were looking for at once.

Several children of the Ji family were gathered around the goldfish pond. When they heard the familiar calling noise, Ji Xiukai frowned, raised his head and glanced over.

As soon as he saw Mu Daiyao, Ji Xiukai's eyes lit up and his feet moved slightly, but he still held it back.

On the contrary, Xiao Ju, who had been protected by Ji Xiuping, saw her mother approaching, and quickly broke away from Ji Xiuping, and the little figure rushed towards her.

"Mother, oooooooooooo."

"My Xiaoju, mother is here, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, are you injured? Let mother take a good look!"

Ling Qiaoer hugged her daughter and looked her up and down worriedly.

Xiaoju shook her head, and with a sob voice pointed at Ji Xiuping, who was standing quietly and calmly in the distance, and said, "Brother Xiuping didn't let me get close. He said he would scare me."

"What the hell is going on? Why are there people so well?

It was lunch break at that time, everyone was taking a nap, and the entire school was so quiet that only the occasional sound of wind could be heard.

At that time, there was a sudden "plop" sound from the goldfish pond deep in the yard, followed by waves of panicked footsteps and screams, which woke up all the children in the school.

Everyone ran towards the goldfish pond, and Ji Xiu was the fastest to get there because their lunch break place was closest to the goldfish pond.

As a result, they saw a pale boy whose body was covered with water plants being picked up by his husband from the goldfish pond.

The boy who was picked up could not tell whether he was still alive. His chest showed almost no signs of rising and falling, and he collapsed lifelessly in the husband's arms.

This scene was a bit too scary for them as children, especially since there was a young Xiaoju among them.

Thinking of this, Ji Xiu subconsciously prepared to reach out and cover Xiaoju's eyes to prevent her from being frightened by the scene before her.

But before he could put his hand on it, Xiao Ju's warm breath hit him. His back felt numb, and he quickly clenched his fist and shrank back.

After thinking about it, Ji Xiuping hesitated for a moment, then pulled her sleeves, turned around and stood in front of Xiaoju, protecting her firmly with his body.

So Xiaoju didn't see any scary scenes from beginning to end.

Mu Daiyao's eyes quickly glanced at the little brats of the Ji family. After making sure that they were safe and unscathed, she felt relieved after being worried all the way.

Ling Qiao'er was gently comforting Xiao Ju, and the two of them were talking softly. Not far away, Mu Dai Yao came over with a cold face and the children of the Ji family.

And Ji Zhixu arrived at the goldfish pond just in time. It was almost winter and he was still sweating from running.

"Wait, where is Xiu Yun?"

At this time, Mu Daiyao suddenly felt that the number of children in the Ji family was not right. She counted the number of people and asked with a frown.

Ji Xiukai's face had always looked wrong from just now to now. Now that he heard Mu Daiyao's question, he obviously looked a little guilty.

"Third sister, she has three urgent needs and will be back soon!"

Hearing this, Mu Daiyao narrowed her eyes. Before she could say anything, Ji Zhixu had already come to her side. He looked at Ji Xiukai and asked the same question in a deep voice, "Where is Xiuyun?"

"Three emergencies are gone."

Seeing that Ji Xiukai did not dare to look directly into her eyes, Mu Daiyao answered Ji Zhixu with the same answer.

"Really?"

However, Ji Zhixu knew his son better. He could tell at a glance that Ji Xiukai was lying, but he didn't know why he was lying.

"Of course it's true! Dad, look, Third Sister is back soon!"

Just when Ji Xiukai's forehead started to sweat, Ji Xiuyun sneakily touched her from behind.

She didn't expect to bump into her father here. When she saw Ji Zhixu's cold face, she was stunned.

"Dad, daddy, why are you here?"

"Your father and I are here to pick you up from get out of class. Xiuyun, why do you look so panicked? Did something happen?"

Hearing this, Ji Xiuyun immediately jumped up and shouted to Mu Daiyao in a stern voice: "Why are you panicking? Don't talk nonsense. I'm warning you, nothing happened! What could happen?

This is a book school!"

As soon as these words came out, Mu Daiyao clearly felt that the faces of everyone present changed.

Especially Ji Xiukai, he moved his hanging hand, as if he was reaching out to stop Ji Xiuyun to stop her from continuing.

But what Mu Daiyao wanted was for Ji Xiuyun to keep silent. She blinked, pretending to be surprised and asked: "Did nothing happen? Xiuyun, did you skip school again?"

But Ji Xiuyun's back was to her second brother, so naturally she didn't know what was going on. She pinched her neck and said with certainty: "I didn't skip school. I was in the school all day. Don't think about it again."

Slander me in front of my father!"

"Then why is it that such a big thing happened in the school and you didn't even know that someone fell into the water?"

As soon as Mu Daiyao said these words, Ji Xiuyun's entire face turned pale. She subconsciously licked her lips, and couldn't help but raise her head and secretly glance at her father.

"Okay, okay, let's go back first. The school is closed, so it's not good for us to stay here any longer."

It was rare for Ji Xiukai to speak out to reconcile. He stood up and stood between Ji Xiuyun and Mu Daiyao. For the first time, he looked at Mu Daiyao with a hint of pleading in his eyes.

"Are you okay, mother?"

This was also the first time in these two lives that Ji Xiukai softened his voice and wanted Mu Daiyao to show mercy.

For some reason, Mu Daiyao pursed her lips and swallowed what she wanted to say.
