The woman opposite was furious. How dare this little vixen call her a dog?

"Ye Xiaoxiao, you're so sharp-tongued, I can't argue with you. Who knows how much longer their sickly mother can hold on? Then your two younger siblings will be in your hands. You'd better discipline them! Stealing eggs at such a young age, what will they be like when they grow up?"

However, she was slapped as soon as she finished speaking.

Aunt Sun looked on in disbelief and screamed, "Ye Xiaoxiao! How dare you hit me?"

"I'll hit you whenever I want, why do I need to pick a day?" Ye Xiaoxiao glanced at her with a hint of mockery. "What was it about you that got you beaten last time? Aunt Sun, you should watch your mouth. You're practically half-buried, and you still have such a sharp tongue!"

Aunt Sun sat on the ground, throwing a tantrum and cursing.

Ye Xiaoxiao ignored her, glancing at the chubby guy who was trying to hide, and her voice rang out softly.

"Fatty, did you really see Wuyou stealing things from your house with your own eyes?"

Fatty flinched, remembering what He Wuyang had said about pulling hair and nails, and fear of Ye Xiaoxiao rose from the bottom of his heart.

He had nightmares for several nights in a row, about a monster dressed in black with a gaping maw, chasing him and trying to pull out his hair.

This morning, when he was collecting eggs, he accidentally dropped and broke one.

He was afraid of getting beaten up, so he thought of framing He Wuyou. Anyway, he saw He Wuyou secretly packing something back yesterday.

Maybe they stole something from somewhere.

Hmph! If it weren't for those siblings, how could he have trouble sleeping and break the eggs?

Upon hearing Fatty's innermost thoughts, Ye Xiaoxiao sneered repeatedly, her gaze towards Fatty cold and gloomy.

Aunt Sun said angrily, "Our Fatty is timid. Ye Xiaoxiao, what kind of look is that?"

“Aunt Sun, why don’t we go to the village chief?” Ye Xiaoxiao paused. “If we’re in the right then and there, what are you going to do?”

"You stole things, and you still have the nerve to complain?"

"Whether you're right or wrong isn't for you to decide alone. But just because you think you're a certain kind of person doesn't mean you think everyone else is too." Ye Xiaoxiao paused. "Aunt Sun thinks our Wuyou would steal things, has it been because you've done something like petty theft recently?"

Aunt Sun, who was sitting on the ground, felt a little guilty and didn't dare to look Ye Xiaoxiao in the eye. She pretended to be calm and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Why would I steal anything?"

Damn it! Does she know I stole her sweet potatoes?

Ye Xiaoxiao's eyes flickered. "I accidentally exposed you. So it was you who stole my He Shou Wu!"

She casually picked at her nails: "Some things have been missing from my house recently. Judging from your guilty look, you didn't do it, did you?"

"Nonsense! How could that be?"

"I guessed so. Although that thing looks like a sweet potato, eating too much of it can be a real pain. At best, you'll suffer from severe abdominal pain; at worst, you'll bleed from all seven orifices and die a gruesome death! Aunt Sun, you seem to be full of energy and very lively, so it can't be you."

The gruesome death was fabricated by Ye Xiaoxiao. Upon hearing this, Aunt Sun's face turned pale instantly.

"Mom, didn't we eat a strange-tasting sweet potato a few days ago? You said you picked it up on the road..."

Before Fatty could finish speaking, Aunt Sun slapped him across the face: "You brat, don't talk nonsense! When did we eat sweet potatoes?"

"Fatty, not only will your fingernails be pulled out if you lie, but your tongue will be pulled out too!" Ye Xiaoxiao used a special method. "Did you really see Wuyou steal something?"

Upon hearing this, Fatty almost wet his pants in fright. Ye Xiaoxiao in front of him seemed to have turned into a terrifying demon. He sat down on the ground with a thud.

He hurriedly said, "Mother, I broke that egg. I was afraid you would hit me, so I lied and said that He Wuyou stole it."

Aunt Sun was already feeling guilty about stealing, and when she heard that her son had lied to her, she became even angrier.

He picked up a stick from the ground and started hitting the fat man.

"You bastard, lying at such a young age! Ah! I'll beat you to death!"

Ye Xiaoxiao watched coldly and said, "If you don't discipline them properly when they're young, they'll be a different story when they grow up!"

She turned to the brother and sister and said, "Come on! Let's pick some wild vegetables to cook something delicious."
