Xiao Jingkong didn't return home till it was nearly dark. When he walked in the door, he took a deep breath, packing away his little emotions. He couldn't let Jiaojiao see how upset he was for Xiaojin.
He poked his own dimple, lifting a smile and entered the house cutely!
Gu Jiao had finished chopping firewood and putting away the medicinal herbs. When she turned around, she saw the little fellow hopping over happily.
"Did you come back?" she asked.
"Yes!" Xiao Jingkong ran over and extended his short little arms, "Jiaojiao, I'll help you carry it!"
"You can carry this." Gu Jiao scooped a small spoonful of medicinal herbs from the large basket for him.
"Okay!" Xiao Jingkong cheerfully held up the little spoon, and carefully returned to the main room without spilling a single piece of the medicinal herbs.
After dinner, Gu Jiao went to clean up Xiao Jingkong's stuff.
The little fellow always made a mess and never put things back properly.
