"Yingbao, what are you thinking about? Come and play!" Ye Mingchen, who was playing in the mud in the yard, looked at Yingbao, who was sitting on a small stool under the eaves deep in thought, and invited her happily.

Yingbao: "Little brother, you play by yourself first!" I'm speechless. My third brother asked me, this pretty little one, to play in the mud with him. I really want to ask him what he was thinking. What an amazing thought process!

"Speaking of which, I felt like I forgot something last night, but I just couldn't remember what it was!" Yingbao was pondering this with her cheek in her hand when suddenly, the sound of a door opening interrupted her thoughts.

Just then, a man dressed in patched and tattered clothes entered through the courtyard gate. Yingbao recognized him immediately as her father. But shouldn't he be in the fields working on the crops? Why wasn't he back now? Was something wrong? Yingbao wondered to herself and blurted out, "Daddy, shouldn't you be in the fields at this time? What happened? Why are you back so early?"

Ye Tianyong couldn't help but chuckle at his daughter's three consecutive questions. "Yingbao, did you forget to tell Daddy and Mommy about the wild rabbit and two pheasants in the basket yesterday?"

Yingbao suddenly froze and slapped her forehead. Oh dear! How could I be so stupid? How could I forget to take out the rabbits and chickens from my space to supplement the family's nutrition, so that everyone wouldn't be exhausted after finishing the crops in the fields!

"Yingbao, are you stupid? Why are you hitting your own head?" Ye Mingchen said innocently.

"You're the stupid one, your whole family is stupid!" Yingbao thought angrily, then immediately realized that her brother's whole family included herself. "Sigh, my brain hasn't been thinking in a long time, it's gone mad!"

Ye Tianyong: "Ye Mingchen, you little brat, you're asking for trouble again, daring to talk about your sister like that. Look at yourself, covered in mud again. Wait till your mother gets back and gives you a beating!"

"Yingbao, don't be angry, okay?" Xiao Mingchen pulled Yingbao, who was pouting and angry, while regretting that he had spoken without thinking and made his beloved little sister angry.

Yingbao thought to herself that she was a magnanimous person and wouldn't bother with a little kid playing in the mud, so she generously said to Ye Mingchen, "Brother, I forgive you, but don't call other people stupid in the future, that's not good."

Yingbao isn't angry anymore, she's forgiven me. Thinking of this, Xiaomingchen couldn't help but show a silly smile, and immediately nodded in response to Yingbao like a pestle being pounded.

This guy is really stupid. But only I can say that he's bullying me. If anyone else dares to say that they're bullying him, I'll beat them to a pulp!

Ye Tianyong stood in the yard, not even having time to put down the things in the basket on his back. Looking at his little girl in front of him, whose lively and beautiful appearance was just like his wife's, with big, round eyes, a firm and upturned nose, and tender skin like a bud, especially when she was thinking about something, she would pout her watery little mouth, raise her little arms to show her fair and tender little hands, she was simply too cute. In Yingbao's hometown dialect, "Daddy's heart is melting with cuteness!"

Suddenly, a special fragrance wafted from somewhere, which caught the whiff of little Mingchen's sweet tooth. He sniffed and rubbed his nose several times before finally realizing that the fragrance was coming from his father. His little eyes darted around, staring at the basket on his father's back and the things he was holding.
