Outsider: The Fifth Young Master of the Kang Family

Chapter 160 Animal Cruelty
When Kang Qirui got home from get off work that day, he saw Er Lao sitting in the living room with a depressed look on his face, with a live chicken at his feet. He frowned and said, "Er Lao, why is this chicken in the living room? Take it to the kitchen and let Xiu Gu kill it." He thought Er Lao brought the chicken back to nourish Er Shao, as Er Shao and Xiang Lan were about to give birth.

The second brother waved his hand and said, "I'll kill the chicken later, wait until everyone comes back for the meeting." Kang Qirui didn't know what the second brother was thinking, so he ignored him. He said, "Call me after the meeting," and went to the courtyard garden to find Zhu Wanling and her daughter.

About half an hour later, Er Lao shouted in the living room to Kang Qirui to go out for a meeting. Kang Qirui walked into the living room and said with a wry smile: "Er Lao, you are too lazy to walk these few steps. What if you scare Siqi by shouting so loudly?"

"Let's not talk about yours first, let's talk about mine first. What's so strange about this chicken?" Er Lao picked up the chicken at his feet and asked everyone. "Why is there no hair on the chicken's neck?" A Yao immediately noticed something was wrong and asked in confusion.

The second brother said, "These feathers were plucked one by one by that bad guy Tianxiu." He took out another chicken feather shuttlecock, "Just to make this chicken feather shuttlecock." Kang Qirui, A Yao, A Zu, and Da Lao Guang looked at each other, while the second sister-in-law and Diana were directly shocked.

A Yao carefully observed the shuttlecock and said, "I think Tianxiu is too violent. Think about it, we usually feel pain when plucking the feathers on our legs, but he is plucking the feathers of a live chicken." He pointed at the fine hairs on the bottom of the shuttlecock and said, "Look, these are all cold hairs. How cruel."

"Uncle San, aren't you going too far? It's just plucking a few chicken feathers. Do you really have to be merciful to the chicken?" The second sister-in-law was very dissatisfied with Ah Yao for describing her son as so violent and cruel, and thought that he was going too far.

Ah Yao didn't think so. He said, "This is not a question of mercy or not, it's a question of love. Some time ago, the newspaper reported that a college student poured sulfuric acid on a bear's head. The newspaper published it for several days in a row."

"Hey, he is him. My son is my son. My son is very loving." The second sister-in-law was even more anxious when A Yao compared Tian Xiu with the college student who was doused in sulfuric acid. "Do you remember? Before, he brought back a duckling. When he saw that it was dirty, he put it in the washing machine to give it a bath."

"Poof!" Kang Qirui almost spit out a mouthful of tea. A Yao said even more unhappily: "Yeah, the feathers were all gone when I took it out, and the duckling died too."

The second sister-in-law said unconvincedly: "Many people made shuttlecocks and plucked chicken feathers when they were young, why haven't you all become cold-blooded killers?" The second sister-in-law was a typical protective mother, and she would not tolerate anyone saying anything bad about Tianxiu. Kang Qirui coughed, and when everyone was looking at him, he said: "Second sister-in-law's words are not without reason, and third brother's words are indeed a bit harsh. And I think there is no point in us arguing about this. What kind of person Tianxiu will become in the future depends mainly on how we educate him."

"In my opinion, we should give Tianxiu a psychological test to see if he has a cruel heart." Diana suggested. "How to test?" asked Big Brother Guang.

Diana explained: "Look at his attitude towards animals to understand whether he has love."

"Should we ask him if he would pour concentrated sulfuric acid on the bear?" As expected of Big Boss Guang, the questions he asked were very interesting.

"How could that be? I definitely won't do that." Er Lao said firmly. He felt that he was still very confident about this.

Ah Yao seemed to have turned into a construction worker today. He argued, "Who knows? Look at it from another angle. If the bear happened to be walking towards him and Tianxiu happened to have a bottle of sulfuric acid in his hand, do you think he would throw it at him?"

Kang Qirui shook his head and said, "Asan, you are being unreasonable. You will definitely throw it at him. Change your perspective. If you were holding a bottle of sulfuric acid and facing a bear walking towards you, what would you do?"

"That's right, Third Uncle, that sum is that sum, and this sum is this sum, they are not the same thing at all. Like Uncle Yao said, are you going to splash it or not? Are you going to say to me, "Bear, I love you, come here and kiss me"? You are so stupid." The second sister-in-law said sarcastically.

The second brother also followed his wife's lead: "That's right, the nature is different, this is called self-defense." Then he turned to the second sister-in-law and said: "But my wife, I won't be as cruel as you, I still have some love." "What love?" The eldest brother asked. The others also looked at the second brother curiously. The second brother smiled proudly and said: "I won't use sulfuric acid to soak the bear. At most, I will shoot it to death. First, it can reduce the pain of the bear. Second, the bear's gall and paw are very valuable. If they are damaged by sulfuric acid, they will be useless. As for other parts, who cares?"

"How could you do this? You beat a bear to death for the gallbladder." Diana, a caring person, was very dissatisfied and questioned Er Lao loudly. "We should ask from another angle, for example, what does he think about the college students pouring sulfuric acid on the bear? Do you think it's right?"

"No need to ask, my son will definitely say he is wrong." The second sister-in-law felt that Tianxiu would definitely not do this, "There is no reason to say he is right, it's so cruel."

Ah Yao had something to say again, "How do you know if you don't ask? You don't dare to ask, right?"

"What are you afraid to ask?" The second sister-in-law was successfully provoked, and he shouted loudly inside: "Son, come out."

After a while, Tianxiu came out and asked, "What's the matter?" The second sister-in-law pulled him to sit next to her, "Your fourth aunt has something to ask you."

"Tianxiu, listen, if there is a bear, would you pour a bottle of sulfuric acid on it to see how it would react?" Diana asked directly.

"One bottle is too much, of course not. If it were me, I would try one drop." Tian Xiu also answered directly, but his words shocked everyone. "Son, you have to think clearly, the bear is alive, not dead." The second sister-in-law reminded him quickly.

"Of course, I know it's alive and it's a treasure. If I meet it in the wilderness, I won't kill it." Tianxiu changed the subject. Hearing this, everyone thought that Tianxiu was still a kind and loving child, but this fantasy was quickly shattered. He continued, "But I will shoot it to death with a gun."

"Why do you want to kill it?" It was the boss who took the initiative to cue the process.

"Firstly, it can reduce the bear's pain. Secondly, bear gall and bear paws are very valuable. Wouldn't they be useless if they are damaged by sulfuric acid? As for other parts, who cares?" Tianxiu's words cannot be said to be exactly the same as Erlao's, but they are completely the same.

Kang Qirui looked at the second brother, "Why does it seem like someone just said this?"

"He has learned everything from someone." A Yao also looked at the second brother.

The second brother was very embarrassed. He coughed and changed the subject: "Ahem, let's not talk about bears. Let's talk about chickens. Hey, when you were plucking the chicken's feathers and it was clucking, how did you feel?"

"That's fun. When I pull it once, it makes a cackle. When I pull it twice, it makes a cackle. When I pull it three times, it makes a cackle. When I pull it long, it makes a long sound. When I pull it short, it makes a short sound. It's like blowing a trumpet. It's fun." Tianxiu's words made Kang Qirui, who had lived two lives, a little nervous. Everyone was stunned when they heard this. Could it be that Tianxiu was a little devil?
"Do you know? You are abusing animals. If you were in a foreign country, someone would sue you if you caught the chicken upside down." The second brother threatened Tianxiu in a bad mood.

"You also said that we were in a foreign country. Besides, I didn't beat it. I just borrowed its clothes. And its hair will grow back sooner or later." Tianxiu acted as if he didn't care. The second brother and his wife were also helpless after hearing this. Just now, he was desperately defending him in front of everyone as a loving and good child, but now he was slapped in the face.
