They put in a lot of effort, but it didn't actually have much of a deterrent effect.
Bai Yunqi was a little confused about what he had done to offend the little guy, but he still smiled and climbed down from the tree: "Come here."
The instant he agreed, Juanjuan pointed her sword at him.
Bai Yunqi: ?
"My second brother said that swords should not be pointed at our own people, except in cases where it is clearly intended to spar!"
Bai Yunqi raised an eyebrow: [I didn't expect the second child to teach Juanjuan this!]
[If the second brother were in the cultivation world, he would definitely be a good senior brother—reliable, calm, and patient enough to properly teach his junior brothers and sisters.]
“Your second brother is right, come on.” Bai Yunqi added at the end, “I can beat you down without even using a sword.”
Juanjuan: ...
His anger, which made him want to beat up his older brother, surged rapidly.
Knowing she couldn't possibly hurt her elder brother, Juanjuan drew her sword and charged.
The white clouds rise and fall with ease and simplicity.
[We still can't be too harsh on the child. We need to go easy on him a little. If he keeps feeling frustrated, he won't fight with me anymore. We need to show some weakness.]
Juanjuan: ...
Although what my older brother said made a lot of sense, why did it not feel so good to hear it?
Sure enough, she pushed her luck. She never dared to be displeased with her older brother before, but now…
The child gritted his teeth and threw away the small peach wood sword in his hand.
No way, I'm going to fight my brother to the death today!
Jiang Dai accompanied Qingxi out of the house to look for the two children.
"Auntie, I told you, don't worry about those two kids. With Yunqi around, they'll be fine. They're such good children..."
Jiang Dai hadn't finished speaking when she was interrupted by a scream from not far away.
"Aaaaaah! It hurts! It hurts! Bai Xiaojuan!!!"
Jiang Dai: ...
No, did the slap in the face come so quickly?
What on earth did these two kids do?!
Jiang Dai couldn't help but jog a few steps, and when she saw her son and daughter, the corners of her mouth twitched uncontrollably.
On the treated, soft grass with no sharp stones.
Jiang Dai's usually well-behaved youngest daughter was clinging tightly to her eldest son's arm, refusing to let go.
Crossing his arms is nothing compared to what's happening.
The little girl was still pulling her brother's hair with one of her tiny hands, and biting her brother's arm with her mouth.
Jiang Dai: ...
[To actually drive someone as good-natured as Juanjuan to this state, ugh...]
Bai Yunqi looked up and immediately pleaded with his mother, "Mother! Please control my sister! She's gone mad!"
Just as I was about to let go of my older brother's curly hair: ? ? ?
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Juanjuan gave her brother another bite.
Then she let go of her brother and stood there obediently, as if she wasn't the one who had been scratching and biting him, creating a strong sense of disconnect.
A pair of clear, round eyes looked at Jiang Dai with a hint of helplessness, and she said in a slightly aggrieved voice, "Mom, my tooth seems a little loose, will it fall out?"
Bai Yunqi suddenly turned around: ?
Is this how they start extorting money from people?
Jiang Dai squatted down to take a look: "It should be fine, it's probably just the time for her baby teeth to fall out."
[It's also possible that you shouldn't have lost your baby teeth, but you hurt them when you bit your brother, causing them to fall out earlier.]
"Aunt Qing, these two children only fight occasionally; they don't usually act like this."
Jiang Dai made amends for the two children.
Qingxi chuckled: "It's normal for kids to act like that."
On the way back, Jiang Dai whispered to Bai Yunqi, "Why did Juanjuan hit you so hard?"
Bai Yunqi: "I don't know either! We were supposed to have a friendly spar, but as we were sparring, Bai Xiaojuan dropped her sword and started pulling my hair and biting me, just like a little dog."
Jiang Dai: ...
Never mind, I'll ask my little girl later.
If Bai Yunqi knew why he was being beaten, he wouldn't have been beaten in the first place.
Back inside, Jiang Dai hadn't yet asked Juanjuan.
Juanjuan has already come to find her mother.
"Mother, actually my brother didn't say anything else. He's just annoying, and it makes you want to punch him. But I didn't hit him hard. I can't beat him, so I didn't hurt him."
Jiang Dai looked at her somewhat conflicted little girl: "What does Juanjuan think now?"
"I need to go apologize to my older brother and thank him for letting me off the hook and not pinning me to the ground and beating me up."
Bai Yunqi, who happened to be outside, heard these words and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
