Ling Jiale didn't care whether his mother was embarrassed or not, he just wanted goose eggs today. Goose eggs that big would definitely taste good if they were cooked.
"I want goose eggs! Dad, I want goose eggs!"
In order to take his son away, Ling Jiang had to coax him patiently: "Be good, Jiale. We'll buy goose eggs when we get home."
"No, I want it now! I want my aunt's house."
"The goose eggs from my aunt's house are for hatching goslings."
"I don't care! I want it!"
The child was acting unreasonably and Ling Jiang had no idea what to do with him, so he simply picked up his son and planned to take him away by force.
However, he didn't expect that Ling Jiale was more ferocious than he imagined, and he actually bit Ling Jiang's ear.
Ling Jiang felt pain and subconsciously loosened his grip. Ling Jiale jumped to the ground and ran straight to the cabin, apparently trying to snatch the things away.
The big white and Erbai, who had already lost an egg, was guarding the nest very closely. Before Ling Jiale got close, he spread his wings and made an attacking gesture.
Li Li had experienced how powerful Dabai and Erbai were, so she quickly ran over to hug her son away, fearing that the two big geese would hurt him.
"I won't leave, I want goose eggs!"
Ling Jiale started to act arrogantly, ignoring his parents and kicking and hitting Li Li.
Seeing this, Yun Mo handed Ling Jiang the feather duster at home and said, "Brother, some children cannot be taught without being beaten. Don't be soft-hearted when it's time to discipline them."
Looking at the feather duster, Ling Jiang was stunned instinctively.
When Ling Jiang thought about how his son had bitten him just now, he felt that his son really needed to be disciplined.
He's so young and yet he dares to attack his father. He'll definitely rebel when he grows up.
Ling Jiang took the feather duster and hit Ling Jiale on the butt.
"Ouch, that hurts! Daddy hit me! Wuuwuwu, Mommy..."
Li Li hugged her son who was howling like a ghost and coaxing him, while scolding Ling Jiang angrily, "Jia Le is so young, and you are willing to hit him. Are you still a human being?"
Ling Jiang ignored his wife, stared at his son, and raised the feather duster high in his hand.
"Are you going to leave or not? If not, I will beat you."
Faced with the feather duster that could fall on him at any time, Ling Jiale finally gave in and obediently let Li Li pull him out.
Only when the mother and son stepped out of the threshold of the courtyard did Ling Jiang's tense expression relax and he turned around to return the feather duster to Yun Mo.
"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry to trouble you. I'll go back first."
"Um."
Ling Jiang turned around and took two steps. Seeing his daughter standing alone under the eaves, he couldn't help but sigh.
He had originally thought of bringing his daughter home in a couple of days, but seeing how his wife was, he thought that nothing good would happen to his daughter if she returned home.
But what can I do? I can't stay here forever.
"Chunhua, just listen to your aunt and your father will come to pick you up in two days..."
After giving his daughter some instructions, Ling Jiang left.
With the departure of Li Li and her son, the courtyard returned to peace.
Ling Chuan looked at his wife's disheveled appearance, with even some straw debris on her hair, and subconsciously reached out to help pick the straw off.
But before her hand touched her, Yun Mo turned her head away.
"Momo..."
Yun Mo ignored the man, stood up and walked to the front of the cabin, squatted down to check if Dabai and Erbai were injured.
Fortunately.
After a check, it was found that Dabai and Erbai were not injured, only a few goose feathers were lost.
Yun Mo breathed a sigh of relief, but soon realized something was wrong.
The silver plate on Erbai’s neck is gone!
She immediately went into the cabin and searched every corner carefully.
Ling Chuan soon followed in, "Momo, what are you looking for?"
"Erbai's nameplate is missing."
Although the floor of the cabin was covered with straw, the nameplate was the size of a matchbox, made of silver, and tied with a red rope, so it was actually very easy to find.
The couple searched the cabin from top to bottom, even the second floor. Lingchuan also searched the sand pit and the bottom of the pond, but still couldn't find it.
Thinking of the scuffle between her and Li Li in the cabin just now, Yun Mo seriously suspected that Li Li took advantage of the situation and stole the nameplate from Erbai's neck.
A silver medal is actually not very expensive. The weight and craftsmanship cost only about 10 yuan.
But when she thought that it was probably stolen by Li Li, she felt uncomfortable. She would rather lose it than let Li Li get it for free.
What Yun Mo can think of, Ling Chuan can naturally think of as well.
"Momo, I'm going to go to my eldest brother's house this afternoon and ask my eldest sister-in-law for clarification."
Yun Mo glared at him depressedly, "Forget it, just think of it as a dog taking it away."
Given Li Li's character, it would be strange for her to admit it, and then there would definitely be chaos everywhere.
Instead of wasting time getting entangled with Li Li, it is better to spend time and energy on business.
"Momo, what do you want to eat for lunch?"
"You guys eat, I'm not hungry."
I'm so angry.
Watching his wife angrily returning to the house, Lingchuan's mood also became depressed and bad. He stood in the yard like a statue, motionless.
After a long while, Zhou Xiaowei, whose stomach was growling with hunger, gritted his teeth and came to Ling Chuan.
"Brother Chuan, it's already 12 o'clock, how about I cook the rice first?"
Ling Chuan exhaled the foul air in his chest, "Xiao Wei, you go cook, I'll go buy some vegetables."
"Chuanzi, do you want to cook dry rice or porridge?"
"Let's eat. We still have to work in the afternoon after we eat."
"OK."
As Ling Chuan stepped out of the door with the basket of vegetables, a small hand grabbed the hem of his clothes.
"uncle."
Ling Chuan turned around and saw anxiety and fear on his niece's little face. Thinking that she might be frightened by what happened before, his heart softened.
"Chunhua, stay home and your uncle will buy you some orange cakes later."
Ling Chunhua shook her head, "I don't want orange cake."
"So what do you want to eat?"
Ling Chunhua's bright, dark eyes revealed anxiety, and her expression was so guilty that she almost cried.
"Uncle, is Auntie angry with me?"
"No, Auntie is just in a bad mood."
Ling Chunhua's mouth flattened and she choked slightly, "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have taken Jiale to see Erbai's eggs. Erbai wouldn't have pecked Jiale, and Mom wouldn't have been angry and smashed Erbai's eggs, and she wouldn't have fought with Auntie. It's all my fault..."
Although Ling Chunhua was only 6 years old, she spoke very clearly and explained what happened clearly in just a few words.
Ling Chuan suddenly remembered that his wife had told him before that Chunhua had a good memory and language talent, and could engage in work such as literature or translation in the future.
—
"Aunt."
Seeing her niece standing timidly at the door, Yun Mo suppressed her anger and gently asked her to come in.
After waiting for a while and not hearing her niece speak, Yun Mo took the initiative to ask, "Chunhua, what do you want to talk to your aunt about?"
Thinking of what her uncle said, "A good child is one who knows when to make mistakes and corrects them," Ling Chunhua mustered up the courage to speak, "Aunt, I was wrong..."
After hearing the whole story, Yun Mo was not very angry.
It is children's nature to love sharing, and no matter how angry she was, she could not blame a 6-year-old child.
