Liu Yujin didn't know what his father was worried about. He enthusiastically placed clean, fresh vegetable leaves into the water jar, then stared intently at the jar, expecting the snail to come out and eat. However, the snail remained motionless.
"Dad, is the snail too scared?" Liu Yujin asked somewhat disappointedly.
"Yes, it was just caught and then moved to a new environment, so it must be scared. Just leave it alone. When you wake up tomorrow, there will definitely be fewer leaves," Mr. Liu assured.
"Alright then. By the way, keep this jar in my courtyard. No one is allowed to touch my snail or feed it. I'll do it myself when I get back," Liu Yujin instructed the housekeeper.
"Yes, young master." The housekeeper nodded.
"Prepare some fruit for me tomorrow. I can't just feed it vegetable leaves," Liu Yujin added.
The housekeeper agreed once more.
At this moment, Madam Liu, sweating and holding a sword, walked over.
