"Mom, I put a straw hat on my sister so her face won't be exposed to the sun. She wants to go up the mountain to play, so don't stop her." Zhou Erfu was anxious. If Xingxing doesn't go, what's the point? He and Sifu can only dig up a couple of bamboo rats at most. If his sister is there, there's an 80% chance she'll catch a wild boar, and he just wants to eat fatty pork.
“She didn’t want to go, but you insisted on taking her.” Zhao Guihua ruthlessly exposed her son’s true intentions.
Zhou Erfu: "?"
“Big Brother and the others are going together. We really have important business to attend to. Little Gray and Little Black need training. Those two are too stupid. If they aren’t trained soon, they’ll be useless.” Zhou Erfu said meaningfully.
Zhao Guihua glanced at the two big dogs wagging their tails vigorously. They were all show and no substance. They really needed to be taken up the mountain to train. Otherwise, they would see everyone as a good person and be too stupid to fight for their owner. They would just eat for free for several months.
"Mom, Xingxing will always wear a straw hat so the sun won't shine on her face." Xingxing sat obediently in the basket, wearing a small straw hat on her head, her little face shrouded in shadow. She had to tilt her head back to see her mother's face.
Looking at her daughter's fair and tender face, and her two chubby little hands sticking out, Zhao Guihua grumbled again, "Did you bring mosquito repellent? The mosquitoes on the mountain are vicious, so don't let them bite you again."
Zhou Erfu felt a surge of impatience. His mother was really too nagging. He turned around and left, saying, "I've got it. Everything's ready. Don't worry about it. Would we let Xingxing suffer?"
"You brat, can't we even scold you, you little rascal?" Zhao Guihua pretended to hit him.
Zhou Erfu darted out of the courtyard gate and disappeared in a flash.
An hour later, the six of them arrived in the forest. A few hundred meters further on was the deep mountains. Zhou Erfu and Zhou Sifu were slightly moved. In two years, they would definitely go into the deep mountains to explore.
Now that the family is keeping a close eye on things, and every time we go into the mountains, the other brothers come along, and we also bring Xingxing along, so naturally we don't dare to take any risks. Once they grow taller and stronger, and have more food to eat for a couple more years, we won't be afraid of anything.
"I want to drink honey water." Xingxing tried to stand up from the basket, so Zhou Erfu quickly took the basket off, picked her up, and handed her the bamboo tube filled with honey water.
Xingxing took the bamboo tube but didn't drink it right away. She pricked up her ears and stood there, seemingly listening to something.
"Are there wild boars nearby?" Zhou Erfu asked, his eyes gleaming with greed.
The other four brothers immediately gathered around. If there really was a wild boar, they would first protect Xingxing, and then figure out how to hunt it down.
"Woof woof woof." Suddenly, Little Gray and Little Black started barking in a certain direction.
“Someone’s coming from this direction,” Xingxing said, pointing towards the deep mountains.
