"I hope he can really do this!" Aunt Mei said coldly.
Jiang Li, who was closest to Aunt Mei, clearly felt the strong coldness and hostility from her.
Jiang Li was a little confused. Why was Aunt Mei so hostile to the Bird King? What on earth had happened?
She quickly recalled that although the original owner and Aunt Mei had always lived in the bird tribe, Aunt Mei never participated in any activities or anything else within the tribe. Even the big and small matters within the tribe were reported to her by Grandma Ling.
The more Jiang Li thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. Aunt Mei must have been hiding something from them.
But now, in front of Ye Yao and Guo Xia, she didn't dare to ask.
Fortunately, Aunt Mei realized that her emotions were too obvious, and she quickly retracted her emotions and smiled instead.
"Ye Yao, thank you so much this time." Aunt Mei narrowed her eyes slightly and looked Ye Yao up and down.
Ye Yao smiled lightly and said modestly, "Aunt Mei, we are all family, why should we be so polite? Besides, this is what I should do. I will not let Xiao Li get hurt in the slightest."
Hearing this answer, Aunt Mei nodded with satisfaction.
She is becoming more and more satisfied with Ye Yao now.
On the contrary, Jiang Li couldn't help but blush after hearing these affectionate words.
If they were talking alone, she probably wouldn't have acted like this, but now it was in front of so many people, and in front of Aunt Mei, such an elder... It was so embarrassing.
Jiang Li scratched the stone table with her fingers. She was so embarrassed that she wanted to scratch out a three-bedroom and one-living-room apartment for herself.
Especially Guo Xia’s blatant probing eyes and obscene smile... made Jiang Li want to reach out and slap him.
Just when they all thought that Ye Yao told the bird tribe the whole story and that he would be reasonable and withdraw the wanted order for Jiang Li, they did not expect that this would make the bird tribe soldiers come directly and surround the snake tribe.
Aunt Mei, whose wound had just healed, was so angry when she heard this that she slammed the table.
"I knew it! How could he really be obedient! How could he really go against her wishes!" Aunt Mei's eyes were red with anger, her teeth were clenched tightly, and her jawline was also tense.
"Aunt Mei, please don't be angry yet." Jiang Li quickly reached out to support Aunt Mei, "Being angry is harmful to your health. Your wounds haven't healed completely yet, so they will easily split open."
Aunt Mei took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in her heart.
Seeing that she was so angry, Jiang Li reached out and smoothed Aunt Mei's back.
Now there are only her and Aunt Mei in the cave, and she finally has the chance to ask the questions that puzzled her at that time.
"Aunt Mei, I'm wondering why you have such a big prejudice against the Bird King."
Aunt Mei was slightly stunned and turned her face away. "Nothing. He is the king of the bird tribe. How could I be prejudiced against him? I am just angry about this matter. It is obviously not your fault, but all the responsibility is put on you."
Aunt Mei clenched her fists tightly. She became angry and furious when she thought of this.
But Jiang Li understood Aunt Mei. Although she was angry to a large extent because of what she said, there was also a small part of the reason that was not due to this.
"Aunt Mei, you must be hiding something from me." Jiang Li reached out and held Aunt Mei's hand, "Can you tell me?"
Jiang Li stared at Aunt Mei with a burning gaze. After a long time, Aunt Mei finally couldn't bear it anymore and looked up at Jiang Li.
Her eyes were full of helplessness, and it was obvious that she really didn't want to tell Jiang Li.
But she kept pressing and asking questions, and she had no choice.
Forget it, just tell her something.
"There are some things that you young people may not know, but we older people know."
"What?" Jiang Li became even more interested at this time. He stared at Aunt Mei with wide eyes, afraid of missing any news.
When Aunt Mei saw her like this, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"You look exactly like your mother!"
Jiang Li smiled slightly and raised his hand to rub his nose.
In her memory, Aunt Mei always said this since she was a child.
She also had no feelings or impressions towards this so-called "mother", and she did not feel much emotion when Aunt Mei said this.
"Aunt Mei, can you please tell me what's going on? I'm really feeling uncomfortable." Jiang Li gently put his hand on Aunt Mei's arm, shaking it back and forth as if he was acting like a coquettish person.
Aunt Mei has never been able to stand Jiang Li's tricks.
Especially in the past, no matter how big a disaster she had caused, as long as Jiang Li acted coquettishly to her like this, she would not have any temper at all.
The kid had been holding on to that for her all these years.
"Okay, okay, I'll tell you right away." Aunt Mei laughed.
"In fact, our bird king is very henpecked. He looks majestic on the surface, but he actually listens to the queen very much. When he stands next to her, he dares not even make a sound. He is very spineless."
Aunt May's tone was full of sarcasm when she said the last sentence.
"Then why does the Bird King want to be with the Queen? Isn't such a life very depressing?" Jiang Li was a little puzzled.
"He deserves it!" Aunt Mei suddenly became excited, but realized that she was too emotional, so she quickly restrained her expression.
"Ahem, it is said that it was the Queen who forced the Bird King to do it. At that time, she was pregnant with Yanhe, and the old Bird King forced him to marry her."
Jiang Li opened his mouth slightly and couldn't help but feel a little pity for the Bird King.
Aunt Mei glanced at Jiang Li with half-opened eyes. Seeing that she seemed to want to say something but hesitated, she instantly guessed what she was thinking.
"Why? Are you sympathizing with him too?"
Jiang Li nodded, "Indeed, there are some."
After hearing this answer, Aunt Mei showed an unhappy expression on her face, pursed her lips and said, "Xiao Li, don't judge by appearances. Sometimes, it may be that this person is just asking for it!"
Hearing Aunt Mei scolding the Bird King mercilessly made Jiang Li a little confused.
Could it be that Aunt Mei and the Bird King had some grudge against each other in the past?
Jiang Li pursed his lips slightly and moved closer to Aunt Mei.
"Aunt Mei, I have something to ask you."
"Hmm? What's up?"
"It's just... I feel like you particularly dislike the Bird King. You always say something bad about him when you mention him. Is it because of something between you..."
Before Jiang Li finished her words, Aunt Mei knew what she meant.
"That's absolutely not true!" Aunt Mei suddenly raised her voice, as if her feathers were plucked, and she almost jumped up.
"How could I possibly have anything to do with him? I would never fall for a male like him! Stop making wild guesses!"
Seeing her so excited, Jiang Li was also frightened and quickly reached out to comfort her.
"Okay, okay, I get it, Aunt Mei. Don't get excited. Be careful with your wound."
