She is 11 years old this year and has long passed the age of going to school. Although her family is poor, she can afford the tuition and miscellaneous fees for the nine-year compulsory education in China, primary school and junior high school.

Even if her family didn't let her pay, Chen Zhaodi was willing to help with laundry, chop wood, and do groceries in the village to earn money to pay for herself. However, her parents still refused to let her go to school, saying that she was a girl and should get married when she was a teenager, so there was no need to waste time.

Chen Zhaodi doesn't want to get married, she wants to study, and like Bai Er said, she wants to get out of Qingshan Town, see the outside world, and create her own world.

The hand warmer in her hand continued to heat up, and Chen Zhaodi held it tightly in her arms. She just held the warmth in her arms and fell asleep in thought.

"Master, I have checked every ward, and there is no tiger!"

While Chen Zhaodi was sitting on the small bed thinking about life, Yuanyuan and Bai Er rushed to the hospital in the town as quickly as possible.

Qingshan Town is relatively backward, and the hospital is not big. The inpatient department only has three floors of wards except for the lobby on the first floor. Bai Er put on the invisibility charm and transformed into a cat. He quickly went upstairs and checked all the wards one by one. There were no I saw Xiaohu and the Chen family.

"Where is Xiaohu's grandfather? Have you found him?"

Yuanyuan had long expected that the situation was different, and was not too surprised when she heard Bai Er's report. She only asked urgently, hoping to find the person through other clues.

"Found it. In the ward on the second floor, the doctor said that the old man suddenly said that he felt unwell in the afternoon and needed to be hospitalized. However, after the examination, there was nothing wrong. He was afraid that something might happen to him, so he asked him to stay and conduct a detailed examination the next morning."

Bai Er heard the words truthfully.

Grandpa Xiaohu’s name is Chen Tiezhu, and he is 72 years old. He asked about it from Chen Zhaodi before he left.

The management of the hospital in the town was not strict. After Bai Er transformed into a human form, he casually asked the nurse in the inpatient department and found the ward where Chen Tiezhu was located. He even asked about his physical condition and the reason for hospitalization.

"Then let's go upstairs and ask Xiaohu's grandfather directly. Even if he doesn't know where brother Xiaohu is, he must have the phone numbers of his parents!"

After hearing Bai Er's words, Yuanyuan frowned and entered the lobby of the inpatient department without thinking and ran to the stairwell.

Judging from what we know now, Brother Xiaohu’s parents are very problematic!

If they really loved Brother Xiaohu, they wouldn't have mentioned him at all in front of his sister and two brothers!

Moreover, they were in such a hurry to leave Beijing and arranged for Grandpa Xiaohu, who was in good health, to be hospitalized in their hometown. They must have wanted to hide their true purpose, so they deliberately lied to the teacher and her father at the rescue station!
Yuanyuan would not have thought so much originally. The hexagrams calculated during the day were really strange, and the results were not good. Considering the current situation, she unconsciously became worried about Brother Xiaohu's safety!

"Master, don't worry. If the old man doesn't cooperate, I will change back to my original form to scare him and force him to call Xiaohu's parents!"

Bai Er saw the worry of the little master and followed her closely, raising his fist as he spoke.

He couldn't guarantee anything else, but threatening and scaring people was what he was best at!
The old man was accompanied by a junior. If he was frightened and fainted, he would grab the other two people and perform surgery. If you don't believe it, you won't be able to find out the whereabouts of the Chen family and his wife!
