The matter was not over yet. Aunt Wang was so angry that she went to find the village chief.

Village chief Wang naturally would not listen to her one-sided story. He went to her house one by one in the middle of the night to question her. After finding out the whole story, he gave her a scolding.

"Don't always look at people with that old-fashioned mindset. Why do you keep talking about boys and girls all the time? Do you think your child is the only precious one?

The times are progressing, you should educate your child well, otherwise you will suffer a great loss in the future."

"Village chief, you really can't tell right from wrong. I think you are biased towards Chen Jiahe. Don't think I don't know."

Aunt Wang went to him to seek justice but failed and was scolded instead. She became angry and took her anger out on him, then turned around and left without looking back.

She had seen with her own eyes that Chen Jiahe often brought the children to his house during this period. She didn't know if she had done him any favors, which was why he was taking sides.

"..."

Village Chief Wang said this for her own good, but she just wouldn't listen. If this continued, she would suffer a lot.

It was late at night. After Chen Jiahe had cleaned up the dishes and was about to lock the door, he ran into the village chief who came to visit.

"I heard that the kid got beaten, and your aunt was worried so she asked me to come and take a look."

Village chief Wang happened to be passing by. The child was usually well-behaved and cute, and it was heartbreaking to see him being bullied.

"It's okay, I'm already asleep."

Chen Jiahe checked where the child was hit and found a red spot on his shoulder from being hit by the broom head.

After this incident, he was a little scared and he wouldn’t dare to leave his child at home alone next time.

"Don't be so impulsive next time. If you offend a petty neighbor, he will definitely make trouble for you behind your back."

Village chief Wang didn't say that what he did was wrong, it's just that his personality easily offends people, and now that he is a father, he should make some appropriate changes.

"Um…"

Chen Jiahe responded indifferently. The village chief's family treated him well, and he would agree to what they said even if he didn't like it.

late at night--

007 stood at the head of the bed, recalling the route he had taken during the day, and found his way to Aunt Wang's house.

Wang Jiaqiang felt something on his face while he was sleeping, and the cold touch made him shiver.

The severe beating he received from Chen Jiahe at night gave him a nightmare.

He dreamed that he had a conflict with Chen Yuanyuan again, and Chen Jiahe came to his house, grabbed him and beat him up. No matter how he cried and screamed, no one came to help him.

He woke up in the middle of the night and opened his eyes, only to find a rabbit standing on his pillow, its blood-red eyes glowing in the night.

"what!"

Wang Jiaqiang screamed and hunched over into the quilt.

"You just like bullying people?"

007 approached closely. It had seen more things than the child had eaten, and knew best how to deal with people.

Although the little host is usually a chatterbox and can't keep secrets, he can't be bullied easily.

"I...I...I..."

The first time Wang Jiaqiang saw a talking rabbit, he was so scared that he spoke incoherently and his brain almost forgot how to think.

He slept at the innermost part of the bed, his body pressed against the earth wall with no room for retreat.

007 didn't bother to be polite with him. He raised his paw and slapped him hard twice, then his body disappeared from his sight.

"Ah... ghost... ghost..."

Wang Jiaqiang was stunned after being beaten. When he came to his senses, he started crying and shouting, his eyes full of fear.

A cold rabbit with glowing eyes appeared out of nowhere, slapped him twice, and then disappeared out of nowhere. The shock it brought to him was indescribable.

Aunt Wang was also woken up. She heard him shouting that there was a ghost and that he was hit by a rabbit. She was confused and believed that he was possessed by an evil spirit.

When I opened the door early the next morning, the mountains in the distance were shrouded in white mist. A gust of cold wind blew in from the door, blowing away the remaining sleepiness.

The child had just crawled out of bed and walked into the main room when he hissed from the cold.

"Dad, close the door."

Yuanyuan kept her little hands in her sleeves, and getting up in cold weather became a big problem for her.

"We need to go to the mountains to check on the traps we set yesterday."

Chen Jiahe went into the room, took out one of his thick clothes and wrapped it around her, then locked the door from the outside and took her out.

"Dad, can I not go?"

Yuanyuan tucked her head into her clothes. It seemed to be a cloudy day today, and the damp and cold wind felt particularly cold on her face.

"No, I'm worried about you being home alone."

Chen Jiahe pulled her clothes up to cover her face tightly.

"dad…"

"Um…"

"Lengleng feels very relieved." Yuanyuan felt that she could actually sleep a little longer in bed.

"?"

Chen Jiahe didn't quite understand what she meant, but he felt safe holding her in his arms.

There was heavy fog in the mountains and the roads were difficult to walk on. It took the father and daughter some time to find the location where they had set the trap yesterday.

The grass covering it was in a mess. One of the two hares had its legs trapped and was still struggling, while the other had its head trapped and was dead.

Chen Jiahe was holding a thick stick in his hand, fiddling with the weeds that had been laid yesterday. With a click, another trap was caught.

After finding all the traps, he went forward with the child in his arms, took the prey and returned home with a full load.

"Dad, is the rabbit delicious?"

Yuanyuan looked at the rabbit in his hand and it seemed that there was no way to raise it.

"It should be delicious. I'll stew it for lunch."

Chen Jiahe was in a good mood as she could finally improve her children's food.

Although the eggs at home were used to hatch chicks, he would occasionally cook one for his children.

The child was still young and needed to eat more good food to grow, so he gave the child what he once longed for.

People are really strange. Some people have experienced pain and don't want to make others suffer, while others want to inflict this pain on others.

He took one of the two rabbits and gave it to Aunt Chen. Rabbits are the fattest in winter and weigh almost three pounds.

"You came at the right time. Yesterday your uncle went to help someone kill a pig. They gave him some meat. You can take some back."

"No, keep it for yourselves."

Chen Jiahe was embarrassed to accept it and pushed the thing back.

"What's the big deal? It's almost the end of the year and many people are looking for him to butcher their pigs. He doesn't need this little bit of meat. Take it back."

Many families in the village have to slaughter pigs at the end of the year, and there are only two butchers in the nearby villages.

Village chief Wang also learned some skills, and in recent years many people have asked him to slaughter pigs.

When you kill a pig, you either give some meat or pay for your skills.

Every year at the end of the year, Village Chief Wang’s family doesn’t need to buy meat, as there is always enough food to eat.

Aunt Chen forced it on him, and he couldn't refuse, so he took it and took the child home to cook.

Hang the rabbit upside down, peel off the skin completely, and then start processing the internal organs.

Given the limited conditions, all he could do was stew the soup. Chen Jiahe chopped the rabbit into pieces, stir-fried it, then cut red and white radishes and put them in. He then added water, covered the pot and simmered it.

He didn't plan to waste the rabbit skin. He planned to make a pair of insoles for his children after it was dried. They would definitely keep their shoes warm in winter.
