“Be careful, and don’t eat too much,” said the Ruanlin Family, taking back the pitted plums. “Tonight, your grandmother will make you spicy rabbit meat. Xiaoxi has been keeping Jiaojiao company and has been a big help, so he’ll stay for dinner with us tonight.”

The little antagonist looked at Ruan Jiaojiao, who turned her gaze away, refusing to make eye contact.

He appeared somewhat dejected as he turned to look at the Ruanlin Family, shook his head, and walked away.

“What’s wrong now?” murmured the Ruanlin Family, puzzled.

Ruan Jiaojiao pursed her lips tightly; she too wanted to know what was wrong. The suddenness of the antagonist’s words truly frightened her like a startled cat!

Ruan Jiaojiao lost her appetite and snuggled into the Ruanlin Family’s embrace, acting coquettishly: “Granny, I’m sleepy.”

“Alright, your grandmother will take you to bed,” said the Ruanlin Family, who was fully embraced by Ruan Jiaojiao, forgetting about everyone else as they picked her up and carried the porcelain bowl into the inner room.

Ruan Jiaojiao was genuinely tired and fell asleep soon after the Ruanlin Family laid her on the bed.

In her dream,

There was a cat, and there was a wolf.

The cat stole the wolf’s meat, and the wolf chased after it, but the wolf could never catch the cat…

Ruan Jiaojiao smiled in her sleep.

“This child,” the Ruanlin Family said helplessly, shaking their head, kissing her chubby little cheeks, tucking her in properly before rising and leaving the room.

Ruan Jianguo was asleep on the rocking chair in the main room. He opened his eyes upon hearing the noise and saw the Ruanlin Family walking out. He followed her to the well, helping to take care of the unfinished rabbit.

“For tonight, let’s just deal with one of them; we’ll dry the other two so that they’re ready when they come back,” the Ruanlin Family instructed.

Ruan Jianguo nodded, skilfully beginning to gut the animal.

“The fur is quite good; take care of it, and I’ll make a couple of pairs of gloves for Jiaojiao,” she said.

“Mhm,” Ruan Jianguo replied, noticing no one was around. He seemed hesitant to speak and looked at the Ruanlin Family, almost speaking, then stopping: “Mother…”

The Ruanlin Family turned to him, waiting for him to speak, but seeing that he called her and fell silent, she, not one to be patient, scolded, “What’s with the mumbling? You’re a grown man. If you’ve got something to say, just say it.”

“Mother, actually, I didn’t catch the rabbits,” said Ruan Jianguo with a complex expression.

“What do you mean?” the Ruanlin Family stopped what they were doing.

Ruan Jianguo leaned closer and recounted what had happened in the field that afternoon, then asked her, “Mother, do you think Jiaojiao might be…,” he trailed off, but his implication was clear.

Last time it was pheasants, this time rabbits, all of them had gone straight for her!

The Ruanlin Family was silent for a couple of seconds, then raised her hand and gave Ruan Jianguo a hard smack on the head.

The man, almost forty, was briefly stunned by the blow to his head from the Ruanlin Family.

Then the Ruanlin Family started scolding: “Ruan Jianguo, what nonsense are you spouting? This is a new society. If you keep on with this nonsense, I’ll see how I deal with you. Besides, our Jiaojiao is such a good girl. Even if Heaven is favoring her and sending her some pheasants and rabbits, what’s it to you that you’re making such a fuss? Maybe in the future, she’ll even bring home a wild boar. What then? Are you going to treat her like a monster? Burn her at the stake?”

The Ruanlin Family didn’t realize that her words, so casually spoken now, would one day come true!

“Mother,” Ruan Jianguo was also anxious, quickly explaining, “That’s not what I meant. She’s my daughter; how could I think that? I’m just worried something might happen to her…”
