Xie Changzheng and Xu Chunxiu were also very happy. Fusheng’s action of defending Ah Wu just now made them regard this wolf child as a family member from the bottom of their hearts.
Compared with the Xie family, who were related by blood but were indifferent and calculating to them, it was obvious that this child, although he was unruly and violent, was kind by nature and worth their efforts.
“This is Dad1爹, diē: Dad, this is Mom2娘, niáng: mother / young lady / (coll.) effeminate, this is Aoao, and you, your name is Fusheng. We are a family.”
Ah Wu was very happy. She pointed at everyone present one by one and then looked at Fusheng with expectant eyes.
At this moment, Fusheng was able to roughly understand what she meant based on her body language. He also had a basic understanding of some of the words that appeared frequently.
He looked at Xie Changzheng and Xu Chunxiu beside him and opened his mouth: “Da, Na.”
Then he held Ah Wu’s hand and placed it on his chest: “Fu Fu.”
His tone was very strange, calling Da and Na for Dad and Mom, and Fusheng called himself Fu Fu in the form of a double word.
But no one laughed at him. They looked at him with great excitement and relief.
It didn’t matter whether his accent was accurate or not. Fusheng was willing to speak, which meant that he was already trying hard to integrate into their world.
“Pooh!”
Fu Sheng looked at the fat puppy circling around his feet and trying to rest its head on Ah Wu’s shoe, so he stretched out his toes to gently pick it away.
Among so many family members, the name that Fusheng could call most easily was Aoao, which was also the original intention of Ah Wuu to give it this name, but this petty male was unwilling to call his rival’s name.
“Aoaoaoao—”
The puppy had no idea of Fusheng’s little thoughts. It thought that he was playing with it. After rolling a few times on the ground, it stuck out its bright red tongue and started flapping its legs toward Fusheng’s toes.
The originally somewhat quiet atmosphere suddenly became relaxed because of Aoao’s lively behavior, as if Xie Xiuzhu’s appearance just now had never affected their family’s mood.
***
In the blink of an eye, Fusheng has been in Xie’s house for a month and a half. At this time, his aggressiveness has decreased a lot. At least, he will no longer actively attack strangers.
Therefore, Xie Changzheng untied the rope on him and began to try to take Fusheng out of the yard and move around in the village.
Xie Changzheng’s foot injury had almost healed, giving him enough confidence that even if Fusheng became agitated and crazy due to special circumstances, he would be able to stop the opponent in the first place.
Xie Changzheng’s injury was not particularly serious, but he exaggerated it deliberately in order to separate from the people in the old house.
Although he could not walk very fast, he could walk slowly like a normal person. However, in order to make his previous lie more realistic, when he was outside, Xie Changzheng would deliberately walk with a limp so that people would mistakenly think that his foot injury had not fully recovered.
When Fusheng walked out of the yard for the first time, he was a little excited.
He was a child who grew up in the mountains, but then he was confined in a small yard all day long, so he must be feeling suffocated.
At this moment, he was crying like a baby, wishing he could swing his legs and use his two hands to throw around on the ground with all his limbs.
However, Fusheng, who had been untied from the rope, was now tied by an invisible chain. He had not even taken two steps when he slowly stopped.
Looking at Ah Wu and the others who were walking on their feet, he patted his dirty hands shyly, stood up straight, and walked toward Ah Wu obediently.
“Ah Bah!”
The narrow-minded boy pointed at the puppy that had run away long ago and expressed his inner contempt fiercely.
Then he blinked, looked at Ah Wu, lowered his head, and let her touch his head to praise him for being well-behaved and sensible.
Ah Wu was a little amused and helpless.
Sometimes she felt that Fusheng liked Aoao very much, as he would often hold it tightly and would not let go. Sometimes she felt that Fusheng hated Aoao, otherwise, he would not have taken the opportunity to report Aoao.
Listening to the name he gave to Aoao, Aoao was almost confused. Sometimes, when he wanted to find the puppy that had run away, shouting ‘bah bah bah’ was more effective than shouting ‘Aoao’.
This was the first time that the Xie family took Fusheng out, and the villagers passing by looked at Fusheng with curious and fearful eyes.
“Don’t go over there. Be careful, he might bite you.”
Some children wanted to get closer, but they were stopped by the adults next to them.
