Han Ming Yi looked to Ji Liu Feng and reluctantly had the fruit put into his mouth.

“How is it? Taste quite good right?” Ji Liu Feng said, pleased with himself.

Han Ming Yi flitted a glance at Ji Liu Feng and said, “So-so.”

Ji Liu Feng mischievously laughed. For Han Ming Yi to say ‘so-so’, then it was really not bad. Looking to the grapes that were about to be finished by him very soon, he regretfully said, “It’s a shame there’s too little. Don’t know where sound found them.”

“Won’t you know if you ask her?” Han Ming Yi said.

“I noticed that girl is quite fun! More fun than those young ladies in the capital.” Ji Liu Feng said.

Han Ming Yi glanced to Ji Liu Feng and didn’t say anything. Fun?

After Du Xiao Li ate her meal at Niu Jing’s house, she carried Silver back home.

“Hey, stop right there!” When Du Xiao Li arrived below the mountain, she was stopped in her path by Du Xiao Tian.

Du Xiao Li watched his fat little hands spread open, blocking herself, “What do you want?”

Du Xiao Tian looked to Silver in her arms and arrogantly said, “I’ve taken a fancy to this dog of yours, give it to me.”

Du Xiao Tian didn’t recognize that Silver was a wolf, only treating it as an ordinary puppy.

“Based on what? It’s mine.” Du Xiao Li said.

She very much liked Silver, feeling it was very intelligent. Furthermore, she also intended, in the future when she plants tangerines, to let it guard the orchard for her. How could she be willing to give it to someone else?

Besides, just based on the fact that she met it under the grape tree, she won’t give Silver away.

“I don’t care, I want it! Are you going to give or not?” Du Xiao Tian saw Du Xiao Li not giving it to him, so he lunged over at once, wanting to s.n.a.t.c.h Silver. Du Xiao Li turned her body, and Du Xiao Tian was thus empty-handed.

“You actually even dared dodge? Watch me tear you to pieces!” Du Xiao Tian was fuming inside. He roared at Du Xiao Li, and then lunged towards her once again. With his entire body of fat, if crushed by him, she would definitely be hurting inside and out.

Du Xiao Li dodged a few times, but Du Xiao Tian kept pursuing closely, not giving up. She started to feel annoyed inside. When he pounced over again, she reached out and grabbed his arm, pulling him forward, and then extending her foot to trip him. Du Xiao Tian’s chubby body fell flat onto the ground. However, Du Xiao Li had picked the spot, letting Du Xiao Tian fall on top of a gra.s.s patch, so as to not injure him.

“Silver is mine, I won’t give to you. Just give up this idea!” After saying this, she walked off, carrying Silver away.

Du Xiao Tian had been raised pampered by Cui-shi since he was small. When has he ever fallen like this before? He was momentarily scared silly. After Du Xiao Li left, he finally returned to his sense, and immediately started bawling. He crawled up from the ground, and then sat there on his b.u.t.t, crying with all his might.

Cui-shi heard Du Xiao Tian’s crying and hurriedly came out from the house, seeing Du Xiao Tian sitting on the ground crying in the distant. She quickly ran over and pulled him up, saying: “The sky’s already dark, instead of coming home, sitting here crying, what are you crying for!?”

“Wuuwuuu, mother, Du Xiao Li won’t give me doggy, and even tripped me. Wuuwuu….” Du Xiao Tian told Cui-shi while crying.

“She tripped you? Quick, let mother see if you’re hurt anywhere.” As soon as Cui-shi heard that her precious son had fallen, her blame immediately turned into concern, looking over her own son left and right.

Du Xiao Tian extended his chubby palms, his palms were a bit red, having been sc.r.a.ped against the dry gra.s.s. “Mother, my hands hurt! Wuuwuu, you need to sort out that darn girl for me!”

Cui-shi worryingly looked to her precious son’s palms, cursing: “That brat actually dared to hurt you? Just see how I skin her! Wait until tomorrow morning, we’ll go find her to settle the score and let her pay your medical fees!”

“Wuuwuu, mother, I also want that doggy.” Du Xiao Tiao added.

“What doggy?” Cui-shi asked.

“That one in that darn girl’s arms. It’s really cute.” Du Xiao Tian said.

“Alright, tomorrow I’ll go bring that dog back. Right now, let’s go home first.” Cui-shi dragged Du Xiao Tian back home, preparing to go find Du Xiao Li the next morning to settle the score.

The morning of the next day, Du Xiao Li got up, tied herself two self-made sandbags, and ran along the mountain path twice. Afterwards, she made breakfast for herself and Silver. Just when she picked up the broom to clean the courtyard, Cui-shi came with Du Xiao Tian.

At a glance, Du Xiao Li already knew what they came for. Ignoring them, she continued to clean.

Cui-shi, seeing Du Xiao Li see her but still pretends to not notice, forcibly pushed open the bamboo gate. Because her strength was too big, she even broke the gate.

“Dead brat, you hit my son yesterday?” As soon as Cui-shi entered, she began interrogating.

Du Xiao Li shook her head and said, “I didn’t hit your son.”

“You’re lying!” Du Xiao Tian, seeing Du Xiao Li not admitting to it, loudly screamed.

“What am I lying about?” Du Xiao Li looked to Du Xiao Tian and said, “I ran into a bandit yesterday, wanting to s.n.a.t.c.h my family’s Silver. I only pulled him once.”

“Look at what you did to your big brother. His hands were red all night.” Cui-shi said, “As your eldest aunt, I won’t say I’m going to drag you to court, just give two taels of silver to your big brother as medical expense. Afterwards, give that dog to him too, and this matter will be let go of.”

Du Xiao Li heard Cui-shi’s words and amusingly said, “He wants to steal my things, and then fell down on his own. You want me to give you two taels of silver, and even want to steal my family’s Silver? Heheh, eldest aunt, isn’t this calculation of yours too good?! Besides, who hit him?”

“What, you hit your big brother, even admitting to it yourself, but now want to take back your word?” Cui-shi said.

Du Xiao Li stomped the broom on the ground and said, “You said I hit him, what proof do you have? Where is he injured? Did anyone see? Is there anything that can prove he was. .h.i.t by me? Eldest aunt, why don’t you tell me.”

“You….” Cui-shi was immediately tongue-tied.

Du Xiao Tian’s hand originally were just a bit red. After a night, it has already reduced in color, how can they still say it was done by Du Xiao Li anymore.

“And when older cousin was trying to steal my doggy, several people saw. You say you won’t report me for injuring him, how I see it, I rather want to report older cousin for stealing my things!” Du Xiao Li mockingly said.

T/N: The reason Cui-shi calls Du Xiao Tian, Du Xiao Li’s ‘big brother’, is because they’re cousins with the same surname. Patrillineal cousins in Chinese culture are referred to like siblings.
