Chapter 66

"Dad, can I not go?"

Jia Dongxu felt his scalp tingling.

"Do you think I can drag your mother back by myself?"

"Why aren't you moving yet?"

Jia Gensheng was very helpless.

Most of the good food in the house was eaten by Jia Zhangshi.

Jia Zhangshi was fat and strong; he really couldn't drag her back alone if she didn't cooperate; he needed someone to help.

Jia Dongxu was very helpless.

The father and son headed straight for the backyard, looking like they were going to their deaths.

The front yard.

The Third Aunt, who was guarding the gate, saw the Third Elder return.

"Head of the house, Wan Ping'an just came back; guess how much game he caught?"

The Third Aunt was very excited.

"Empty-handed, I suppose?"

"He's okay at catching wild ducks, but I didn't know he could hunt."

Yan Fugui shook his head.

"You guessed wrong this time."

"I'm telling you, Wan Ping'an caught six pheasants and seven wild rabbits, every one of them fat and big; he could barely carry them back."

The Third Aunt gestured exaggeratedly.

"You're not joking, are you?"

"Six pheasants, seven wild rabbits, and all fat and big; how did Wan Ping'an manage that?"

Yan Fugui found it hard to believe.

But he knew very well that the Third Aunt wouldn't lie to him.

"Let's go, let's go to the backyard and see if we can take advantage of the situation; things like innards, Wan Ping'an won't eat, and that's meat that can be eaten too."

Yan Fugui was excited.

The middle courtyard.

Shazhu returned with He Yushui; as soon as they entered the courtyard, they heard everyone discussing Wan Ping'an's big hunting harvest.

Arriving at their door.

The two heard Jia Zhangshi's cursing, which had great penetrating power; it traveled from the backyard to the middle courtyard and could be heard very clearly.

"Brother, where are you going?"

He Yushui grabbed Shazhu.

"I'm going to the backyard to see; that little brat Wan Ping'an is bullying people again."

Shazhu's eyes flashed with ferocity.

He remembered being beaten very badly by Wan Ping'an.

"Brother, you can't go to the backyard."

"Dad said to let me watch you, not to go provoke Wan Ping'an, and not to get too close to the Deaf Old Lady or the First Elder."

He Yushui shook her head.

She was still a child and listened very well to He Daqing.

"Yushui, let go of me, I'll buy you a piece of candy."

Shazhu negotiated with He Yushui.

"Two pieces of candy!"

He Yushui was a child after all.

Hearing there was candy to eat, her eyes lit up instantly.

"Fine, two pieces it is!"

"When Dad comes back, you can't tell him either."

Shazhu proposed another condition.

He Yushui nodded in agreement.

As long as there was candy to eat, it was fine.

When Shazhu went to the backyard, Yi Zhonghai also returned from work.

He had just arrived home when he heard Jia Zhangshi's cursing.

"Sigh, who provoked Jia Zhangshi again?"

Yi Zhonghai had a headache.

Jia Zhangshi was one of the most difficult people in the courtyard; whoever provoked her, she wouldn't reason with them at all, regardless of who was right or wrong, she would just throw a tantrum.

"It must be Wan Ping'an."

"He went hunting this morning and brought back seven pheasants and eight rabbits; Jia Zhangshi must be green with envy."

The First Aunt looked down on Jia Zhangshi.

"Wan Ping'an?"

"Had a big harvest hunting?"

"No, I have to go see."

Yi Zhonghai paused, went out, and headed straight for the backyard. ===== CHAPTER 68 =====
