"Xiu Gege, how much longer until we get home?"
She didn't know how long she had slept yesterday, nor how long he had carried her on his back.
Xiu Xi helped her sit up and raised his head to look around: "Soon."
Ruan Jiaojiao nodded her head, looking at her small hand being held by him, and obediently followed behind him.
Finally, before noon, they emerged from the front mountain and arrived at the entrance to the village of the Sixth Brigade.
At this time, many people were still working in the fields, and initially, as the two of them walked along the road, disheveled, no one noticed, until someone did and immediately drew a crowd of onlookers.
"My God, isn't that the Ruan family's little girl?"
"Jiaojiao? You're Jiaojiao, aren't you?"
"She actually made it out by herself?"
"..." A group of people surrounded Ruan Jiaojiao, gawking at her as if she were a novelty, clicking their tongues in amazement, making it difficult for Ruan Jiaojiao and Xiu Xi to move an inch.
