In the small courtyard of the patrol office, Min Yueqing had been craving braised pork since early morning. So while Xiao Wei was foraging for food in the woods that morning, Min Yueqing kept looking around. Sure enough, she spotted a wild boar.
This wild boar wasn't as big as the last one; judging from Min Yueqing's estimation, it was probably even lighter than Xiao Wei.
Min Yueqing whistled and called Xiao Wei over.
Little Wei is quite imposing now. He used to spend his days chasing small animals like pheasants and rabbits in the mountains. But lately, perhaps because he's seen too many other large wild animals fighting each other, Little Wei has lost interest in these small creatures and is now keen on finding animals with big heads to fight.
Last time, Xiao Wei provoked a black bear twice its size and was chased around so much that it almost ran out of breath. It was only after Min Yueqing had watched the spectacle for a while that she finally stepped in and freed it from the bear's paws.
Upon seeing a wild boar about the same size as himself, Xiao Wei's eyes lit up, and he pounced on the boar with lightning speed.
Wild boar herds are usually quite fierce, but this particular boar seemed unusually inexperienced in fighting. As a result, when it faced a tiger, a natural-born fighter, it quickly found itself at a disadvantage and was eventually caught by Xiao Wei's precise bite to the neck.
Just as Xiao Wei was about to start eating, Min Yueqing whistled, stopping it in time.
Xiao Wei obediently retracted his fangs, his tiger eyes looking at Min Yueqing with puzzlement.
Min Yueqing approached Xiao Wei and reached out to pat its big head. "Don't worry, we'll take this one back to eat."
Upon reaching the side gate of the patrol station, Min Yueqing, as always, handed the prey to Xiao Wei and let it drag it inside.
Unable to get any food, Wei was instead used as a laborer, and had no choice but to reluctantly carry the wild boar by its neck.
This was no easy task for it. Today's wild boar was much heavier than the roe deer last time. If Min Yueqing hadn't dragged the wild boar to the door, Xiao Wei wouldn't have been able to drag it back at all.
Xiao Wei moved around and rested for a long time before finally managing to drag the wild boar into the yard.
The gatekeeper looked at the tiger with admiration, but even though he felt the wild boar was a bit too heavy, he didn't dare offer to help.
To be honest, seeing Wei dragging such a huge wild boar, they already felt very brave because they weren't trembling with fear.
After all, they weren't much stronger than this wild boar. If Little Wei ever felt hungry for them, it probably wouldn't take much trouble.
As soon as Wei entered the inner courtyard, he released the wild boar from his mouth and collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.
Upon seeing this, the servant sweeping the courtyard quickly put down his broom and ran to the main room to report to Min Yueqing.
Min Yueqing pretended to be completely unaware as she walked out of the room. After seeing the situation in the courtyard, she calmly directed the servant to find two people to move the wild boar outside the kitchen.
The servant went off in high spirits, but he found more than two people.
When the crew learned that Wei had caught another prey, and a large wild boar at that, they all started drooling and scrambled to help in the kitchen.
After resting on the ground for a while, Xiao Wei stood up and ran towards Min Yueqing.
After coming out, Min Yueqing didn't go back to her room. She's still sitting at the door, leisurely basking in the sun, waiting for Xiao Wei.
As soon as Xiao Wei ran up to Min Yueqing, he buried his big head in Min Yueqing's legs and made "woof woof" sounds.
Min Yueqing had already called Amei to the kitchen to have Wu Sanniang cut a pot of wild boar meat for Xiaowei. Now, seeing Xiaowei acting cute, Min Yueqing gently comforted him, "Your lunch will be here soon. Let's bask in the sun for a while, okay?"
Min Yueqing gently stroked Xiao Wei's fur, patiently stroking it from its big head down its back, going around and around several times, massaging almost Xiao Wei's entire body.
Xiao Wei's aggrieved "woofing" gradually stopped. It bent its two hind legs, put its front paws on Min Yueqing's legs, and buried its big head in Min Yueqing's arms with great enjoyment.
The peaceful atmosphere between the man and the tiger didn't last long, because Pei Ji rushed out of the study excitedly, "Mother!"
Pei Ji's days are packed with activities, and it seems to be getting even more packed.
Perhaps because Pei Ji learned too easily, the difficulty of the tasks Pei Han assigned him gradually increased without him realizing it.
As a result, although Pei Ji's efficiency in completing his homework was much higher than that of his peers, he still could not easily finish his studies in a short time. Instead, he had to spend a considerable amount of time thinking before he could complete his homework.
Pei Ji didn't realize this, because he only had one classmate, Shi Tou, and Shi Tou's homework was different from his.
Min Yueqing was fully aware of this, but she approved of Pei Han's approach. Although she loved her little one dearly, she remained very rational when it came to the little one's normal learning and growth.
Min Yueqing reached out and caught the little one who pounced on her, and asked with a smile, "Have you finished your homework?"
Pei Ji sat down next to Min Yueqing and replied, "I finished what I did in the morning. Father said I have to practice calligraphy this afternoon."
Pei Ji leaned on Min Yueqing's arm, playing a game of staring at each other with great interest with Xiao Wei. Only at times like this would Xiao Wei not mind Pei Ji getting too close to it.
Hearing the noise, Xiao Wei lazily opened his eyes, looked at Pei Ji for a while, and then closed his eyes again.
Seeing that Xiao Wei had closed his eyes, Pei Ji happily said to Min Yueqing, "Mother, I won this time! Did you see that? Xiao Wei closed his eyes first."
Min Yueqing looked at the little brat who was so wishful thinking and didn't know what to say.
To avoid dampening his enthusiasm, Min Yueqing decisively changed the subject, "Xiao Wei caught a wild boar today, so we'll have braised pork and braised ribs for dinner tonight. Aren't you happy?"
Pei Ji still remembered the taste of the braised pork ribs she had last time, and immediately replied, "Happy! Wow, Xiao Wei is amazing!"
Min Yueqing smiled and said, "Yes, when you and Shitou grow up a bit more, learn archery, and become more skilled at riding, you can go hunting too."
Pei Ji nodded emphatically, "Yes, Shi Tou and I will definitely study hard!"
As soon as Stone arrived, he heard his name called and immediately asked, "What should I study?"
Pei Ji replied excitedly, "I'll learn riding and archery well! Mother said we can go hunting together when we grow up!"
Upon hearing this, Shi Tou immediately nodded vigorously, "That's wonderful! I've always envied those hunters since I was little; they always have meat to eat!"
Pei Ji excitedly shared Xiao Wei's latest achievement with her friends, "Stone, do you know what? Xiao Wei caught another wild boar today! Mom said we'll have braised pork and braised ribs for dinner tonight!"
Upon hearing about the delicious food, Stone couldn't help but grin. "Wow, Xiao Wei is really amazing!"
