The brought over Ba Tiao grasped the stick and ran away again. He was no longer the same Ba Tiao...
"Hey, Ba Tiao, why are you running?" Liu Tiao was stunned for a moment and chased after him.
Er Tiao finally got out of the stuck position and split two forks on the tree. He leaned over and was about to jump down when he saw Liu Tiao rushing out from under the tree. He shouted, "Get out of the way! Get out of the way!"
When Liu Tiao heard the sound, he subconsciously looked up and saw two shaking tree branches and a dark shadow "Big Rat" rushing down. He dodged like a conditioned reflex, but it was too late. With a "bang", the two brothers fell to the ground.
Two pieces were placed on top of six, and half of his buttocks touched the ground first.
No matter how quick Yitiao was, he only managed to grab Liutiao's hand and said, "Are you all okay? Stop making a fuss. We're here to collect firewood, not to wrestle."
When the three children heard the noise, they all ran over to see their brother Er Tiao who had fallen to the ground. "Er Tiao, are you guys hurt?"
"It's okay, it's okay..." Liu Tiao patted his butt and smiled.
"Yeah, it's okay..." Ertiao rubbed his butt and said to Liutiao in frustration, "Liutiao, why did you suddenly appear? Also, your reaction speed is not good! I told you to move aside, but you still looked up..."
"I felt like I saw a big rat, and I was wondering how such a big rat could grow on the tree..." Liu Tiao rubbed his second brother's butt, then stretched his head over to take a look.
Er Tiao met Liu Tiao's eyes, raised his knee and bumped Liu Tiao's buttocks, "Who are you calling the big rat?"
Three and Seven looked at Two, then looked at Six, and hand in hand, the two good brothers continued to pick up small firewood.
"I didn't say anything about anyone! Did Er Tiao think I was talking about you?" Liu Tiao saw that the situation was not right, and he jumped behind his big brother, revealing half of his head, and said a little aggrievedly, "Er Tiao, you think you are a big rat, why are you blaming me? Big brother, look at Er Tiao..."
...This Liu Tiao is really infuriating! Er Tiao was itching to punch him, but Liu Tiao was hiding behind his brother's butt, so he couldn't rush over. He just waited for the opportunity.
Hard work pays off! After watching for a while, he picked up two more sticks, finally catching Liu Tiao alone. Er Tiao grabbed the sticks and chased after him, asking Liu Tiao if he wanted to be beaten.
Who wants to get beaten? Rokujo was still afraid that his second brother would hit him, so he turned around and sought the protection of his eldest brother. However, he was not fast enough, and after running a few steps, he was shoulder to shoulder with his second brother.
"Where are you going?" Er Tiao patted Liu Tiao's shoulder and said with a kind and friendly face.
"Woo woo~" Liu Tiao, whose life was being strangled by the throat, patted his little cotton jacket and flapped his arms twice to show weakness, then turned around and counterattacked his second brother.
Yitiao looked at his two brothers who had instantly twisted into a ball and didn't bother to help. Even that was not what Jiutiao could do! Yitiao thought, went over to praise Jiutiao, and even drew a "temporary passage" for Jiutiao, indicating that he could walk a few steps outside the circle.
"Walk, walk, walk?" Jiu Tiao was inexplicably praised, and knowing that he could walk a few steps, he immediately hopped and hopped away, dragging the basket. The little guy had a clear goal and hopped to the side of his two brothers who were fighting, clapping his hands and watching happily.
He clapped his hands twice, and then stretched out his little paws to make a fierce expression to his six brothers, saying "Awoo awoo~".
So, Jiu Tiao, who wanted to watch the fight and join in the fun, was dragged into the center of the war by Liu Tiao.
Er Tiao only wanted to beat Liu Tiao, not Jiu Tiao. Seeing Liu Tiao holding Jiu Tiao in his arms as a shield, he endured it for a while. But when Liu Tiao got cocky and Jiu Tiao's feet were kicking everywhere, he got so angry that he beat up both of them.
Finally, the whining Nine was put back into the pen by Three, while Two and Six were punished by One to collect more firewood before returning home.
In response to the eldest brother's words, Er Tiao and Liu Tiao humphed at each other and started to get busy with their own work.
Jiu Tiao looked at his two brothers, their heads drooping as they gathered firewood, and suddenly burst into laughter. He clapped his hands while letting his three brothers wipe his tears and snot, his laughter unstoppable, and he even snorted a few times...
.......At home, Cheng Zhenzhu, who had prepared chili oil and strung squid tentacles, just walked out of the kitchen and found seven little strips guarding a pile of firewood.
"Mom, mom, mom, we are back!" After dragging the firewood into the yard, the seven children held hands, each of them waiting proudly for praise.
Cheng Zhenzhu looked at the large bundle of firewood and decided to give her a substantial reward. "Great! Wash your hands and wait. Mom's going to grill some squid tentacles and grill them flat for you."
Before she had a barbecue grill, she would just set up two bricks and some firewood and grill a few fish in the yard. But now things are different. Due to her recent diligence in completing tasks, she has received many practical rewards.
For example, the seafood grill is made of seabed wood and rocks. The top layer of rock is a thin, hollowed-out layer that heats quickly. The firewood and charcoal underneath are also separated by rock at the front, back, left, right, and bottom. The outermost wooden frame is very stable and can be adjusted in height...
"Squid tentacles!" His eight big eyes fluttered. He loved eating squid the most! Every time his mother made shredded squid, he ate the most!
Qi Tiao also liked it, but he had a hard time imagining what grilled squid tasted like. He had only eaten the grilled fish his mother made before, and that was delicious...
Liu Tiao ran to the kitchen and took a look. He saw the squid meat on a skewer and said, "Mom, is there anything I can help you with?"
San Tiao, having washed his hands, came over, sleeves rolled up, ready to help. Yi Tiao and Er Tiao cocked their heads high, hard to ignore. Jiu Tiao, worried his brother would block his mother's attention, poked his head out to speak for himself...
Cheng Zhenzhu glanced at the seven strips of fish and suddenly felt that the ingredients in the pot were not prepared enough, so she called a few strips of fish out of the kitchen first, and got a few more squids. After processing them, she let the strips of fish go to the table and string them themselves.
As for Jiu Tiao, she called him to the kitchen to prevent him from making trouble.
Jiu Tiao had no idea his mother was afraid he would cause trouble. Hearing his mother calling him, he thought she was going to give him something delicious, so he abandoned Loulouer and came over, dragging his little stool...
"These can't be eaten yet. They have to be grilled. Mom made a separate sauce for us Jiu Tiao. We Jiu Tiao will eat that later. My brothers and the others will have nothing to eat..." Cheng Zhenzhu saw Jiu Tiao standing on tiptoe to pick up the skewers and showed him the special yellow honey barbecue sauce.
