The little ones ran all the way home. Before they entered the yard, Wang, who was busy in the kitchen, heard the children's panting and came out quickly. "Why are you running so fast? What if you fall?" As she said that, she gave the naughty boys a cold look. Seeing Qibao's little face flushed and smiling at her, her heart softened. She hurried forward and pulled Qibao into her arms, and asked with concern, "Qibao, why are you running so fast? The wound on your head hasn't healed yet. Aren't you afraid of getting hurt again?" As she said that, she checked whether her granddaughter was injured or not, and gently patted the mud stuck on Qibao's clothes!
At this time, the second brother Xu Zhiyong brought the pheasant hidden behind him to his grandmother and said excitedly, "Grandma, look what this is!"
Wang exclaimed when she saw the pheasant in her second grandson's hand! "Where did this pheasant come from?" At this time, the three sisters-in-law who were mending clothes in the house heard the mother-in-law's exclamation and hurriedly ran out of the house! Zhang was also shocked when she saw the pheasant in her son's hand, and asked hurriedly, "Second brother, where did this pheasant come from? Although our family is poor, we don't do dirty things like stealing!" After hearing what his mother said, Xu Zhiyong hurriedly explained, "Mom, you misunderstood. This pheasant was caught by Qibao in the mountains. If you don't believe me, you can ask my eldest brother and younger brothers!" After hearing what the second brother said, the little guys nodded quickly, for fear that their aunt would not believe it.
When Qibao's mother, Mrs. Lin, heard what Xu Zhiyong said, she hurried forward and asked her daughter, "Qibao, what's going on? Is what your second brother said true? Did you catch this pheasant?" After all, Qibao was only five years old, and it was incredible that she could catch a pheasant that even adults would find difficult to catch.
Qibao nodded and said, "Mother, what my second brother said is true." Then Qibao recounted the story of how he caught the pheasant from beginning to end!
When Mrs. Lin heard her daughter say that, she was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat. "Qibao, although that place is also on the outskirts, it is too close to the mountains. How can you run in there alone? Even adults don't dare to go there. Do you really want to make your mother worry about you?" Her eyes turned red as she spoke.
Seeing his mother like this, Qibao hurriedly said, "Mom, Qibao will never go there again next time." Then he hugged his mother's thighs.
Li hurriedly comforted her, "Third sister-in-law, look, Qibao has returned home safely. Don't be sad. Be more restrained next time, and Qibao won't go there again." The others nodded in agreement.
After hearing what her second sister-in-law said, Lin wiped away her tears. Qibao was relieved to see that her mother had calmed down. She turned to Wang and said, "Grandma, can you call Grandpa and the others back? Qibao has another treasure that he wants everyone to see. Is that okay?"
When Wang heard her granddaughter say this, she thought she had picked some wild fruits in the mountains and wanted to share them with everyone, so she agreed to her wish. After all, there was not much work to do in the fields and it would not delay anything, so she asked Xiaowu to tell his grandfather and uncle that they were back.
After a while, Xu Dashan came back with his three sons carrying hoes. On the way, Xiaowu told his grandfather and others about the pheasant.
Only after they entered the yard did they truly believe what Xiaowu said. There really was a pheasant in their yard. Xu Dashan hurriedly picked up his little granddaughter and checked if she was injured.
Seeing this, Qibao said, "Grandpa, I'm not injured. I'm fine! Can we go into the main hall to talk? I have a treasure to show you." He said with a mysterious look on his face...
