My baby is two and a half years old. Daddy, hurry up and make some milk!

After waiting for a long time without Le Bao coming to find them, the three little ones couldn't help but run out on their own.

At first, they could still hear Le Bao's footsteps and shouts, but gradually the sounds faded away, and then they couldn't hear anything at all.

The weather is getting warmer, especially on sunny days, and mosquitoes are already starting to appear.

Chengcheng, who was hiding outdoors, had several bite marks on his face and hands, and he was so itchy that he scratched his ears and cheeks.

I couldn't wait any longer. He'd been hiding here for almost 20 minutes, and Le Bao still hadn't found him.

At first, he was happy that he had hidden well and hadn't been found, but as time went on and he was bitten by mosquitoes, he began to look forward to Le Bao finding him soon.

He came out from the pile of firewood and started looking for Le Bao.

Xiao Qiangzi and his sister Niu Niu also came out at the same time.

They hadn't seen Le Bao come looking for them, and they were worried that their little sister was too young and would cry if she couldn't find her, so they came out on their own.

After the three reunited, they began searching for Le Bao in the courtyard.

"Uncle, how about some meat?"

Hearing a sound coming from not far away, the three of them followed the sound and saw Le Bao squatting next to the chicken coop and Shen Shilan standing not far away pinching his nose.

"Le Bao, why don't you come find us?"

Chengcheng angrily ran over to confront her.

When Le Bao saw them, his eyes lit up, and he immediately ran up to hug each of them.

"Gotcha! Sister Guoguo caught her!"

The chubby girl happily spun around in place, while the three children and one adult beside her were speechless with astonishment at her antics.

When it comes to being a master at having fun, no one can beat this chubby girl. She can get people to stand in front of her and let her catch them.

Chengcheng, who was still blaming Lebao for not looking for someone, had all her resentment dissipate after being gently hugged by Lebao.

"Little sister, what are you doing here?"

Xiao Qiangzi removed the chicken feathers that had somehow gotten stuck to Le Bao's head.

"Brother, want some meat? The goose is biting the nest, clean it up, then we'll have some meat."

Le Bao hasn't given up on the idea that if a goose bites him, he should eat its meat.

"Little sister, do you want to eat goose meat? I'll ask my dad to kill it for you. Don't come near, geese will peck at you, it hurts a lot."

Le Bao wasn't the only one who got pecked by a goose; Xiao Qiangzi was also lucky enough to be pecked by one.

"Ugh, it hurts, hit it."

The little guy nodded as if he understood.

"Daddy, Daddy, this little girl wants to eat goose meat, can you kill one for her?"

The generous Xiaoqiangzi turned around and went to find his father, shouting as he ran.

"Little sister, let me see where the goose bit you?"

The well-behaved Niu Niu walked up to Le Bao and asked her where the goose had bitten her.

"Here."

Le Bao pointed to the spot where a goose had pecked at him hundreds of years ago, a spot that had been healed for centuries.

There wasn't a trace of red there now; it was smooth, tender, and plump.

"Does it still hurt?"

Niu Niu picked up the little guy's hand and blew on it.

"It hurts!"

Shen Shilan: Only today did he truly get to know his niece.

A little while later, Xiaoqiangzi arrived with his father, and Chengcheng's father was also there. They were playing mahjong inside the house.

"What's wrong? Did a goose peck you? Don't worry, Uncle will kill one and stew it for you."

Zhou Wei, holding a kitchen knife, skillfully walked to the chicken coop.

"Tell your uncle which dog pecked you, and your uncle will avenge you right now."

Zhou Wei is also a doting father to his daughter; you can tell by how he treats Niu Niu.

"Boss, don't listen to her. She just wants to eat goose meat. We just had dinner not long ago, don't worry about her, she'll forget about it soon."

Shen Shilan wanted to stop her boss from blindly trusting her.

"Oh, it's alright. We raise them ourselves, there are plenty. If the little one wants some, we'll just make one for her, it'll be quick."

Zhou Wei didn't care at all; it was just a goose.

Le Bao pointed to the large goose that was always standing outside;

"Hey."

Zhou Wei skillfully untied the opening in the netting and went inside. As soon as he entered, he startled the chickens, ducks, and geese inside, and they all flew up instantly. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that chaos ensued.

However, for Zhou Wei, who was used to doing these kinds of things, catching a goose was a piece of cake.

In the blink of an eye, Zhou Wei pulled out the goose that Le Bao had pointed out.

Goose: I beseech Heaven to judge the loyal and the treacherous! Today I, a goose, am wrongly killed, and tomorrow a chicken and a duck will be wrongly killed.

"Son, why do you have so many pimples on your face? Where did you get them done?"

Chengcheng's father, who came along, finally noticed his son's face covered in mosquito bites.

Chengcheng: You really are my dad! I scratched my face so badly before you finally noticed me. I'm going to go back and tell my mom.

"Oh dear, these mountain mosquitoes bite so hard! Come on, kid, let me put some medicine on you."

The proprietress knew from the bites on Chengcheng's body that she had been bitten by mountain mosquitoes.

Mountain mosquitoes are much larger than regular mosquitoes, and their bites are more painful. If you get bitten by one, you'll soon develop a welt.

The proprietress took Chengcheng inside to apply medicine, while the remaining children followed Zhou Wei to watch him kill the goose.

"Little one, aren't you afraid?"

Zhou Wei plucked a circle of feathers from the goose's neck, and placed a bowl on the ground to catch the goose blood.

He was preparing to use the knife when he noticed that little Le Bao was staring intently at the movements in his hand.

It's understandable that my two children, who have been used to seeing this since they were little, aren't afraid.

He was a little surprised that this fair-skinned, delicate-looking little baby in the city wasn't afraid at all.

"Don't be scared, baby is awesome."

Le Bao patted his chest, looking smug.

Zhou Wei couldn't believe her at this moment; he thought she was just a little kid who didn't understand.

He glanced at Shen Shilan beside him.

"It's alright, she's brave."

Shen Shilan knew how brave the little fat boy was, so she wouldn't be scared by this.

Having met the parents who had said that, Zhou Wei no longer hesitated, and with a swift stroke, the life of a goose came to an end.

After applying the medicine to Chengcheng, the proprietress brought over boiling water and poured it over the goose in the basin.

Several children found it amusing and gathered around the basin, starting to pluck feathers from the goose's body.

Many hands make light work, and in no time, the goose was plucked clean and lay neatly on the cutting board.

Since geese are large, they are usually stewed. This time, the landlady made two different dishes: one half stewed and the other half braised.

With the help of a pressure cooker, the cooked goose was quickly served on the table.

The goose's thigh and wings were preserved intact, one for each of the four little ones.

As expected, Le Bao and Niu Niu got the meatiest thighs, while the wings went to the two children.

Seeing the children eating so happily, the adults also felt their appetites whetted and started eating as well.

There's not much entertainment in the countryside at night, and by the time we finished eating the goose, it was already eight or nine o'clock.

The boss asked Shen Shilan if he wanted to play mahjong together, but Shen Shilan declined. He took Le Bao back to his room, intending to let the little guy go to sleep early.
