Liu Mianmian immediately sat up: "Missing? Wasn't someone supposed to watch him yesterday?"
Because he was worried about Mingming getting hurt amidst the chaos due to his young age, Liu Xinghe had kept him by his side from the start, and after Chen Ergou and the others came up, he handed him over to Daniu for care.
Daniu has two kids of his own, and he's usually very good at taking care of them, plus Mingming liked to play with Daniu's children while in the village.
Liu Xinghe's apparently casual decision was actually carefully considered.
Daniu is trustworthy and would never lose a child carelessly.
Liu Zhi started speaking rapidly.
It turns out that after Liu Mianmian was taken captive by Xie Hu, Daniu, worried about Liu Xinghe, took Mingming to watch from afar.
Daniu didn't understand the grudges, nor did he know who Lu Xingchi was, but Mingming knew; hearing Xie Hu's remarks, he realized his father was dead.
