With a swift motion, Jiang Hu sliced the cucumber in half, tossing the pieces to Xiao Hei and Xiao Mi.
"Eat up, okay? Stop pestering the chickens and rabbits all the time, will you? They're our source of income."
Jiang Hu sighed. While they were mischievous, chasing chickens and rabbits, they hadn't caused any real harm, and had even chased away predators like weasels, snakes, and mice.
Yet, they just loved to play, teasing the livestock, especially Xiao Mi, who was always scaling walls and roofs. Catching her for a scolding was nearly impossible.
This time, though, Jiang Hu threw the cucumber, and before it hit the ground, Xiao Hei caught it with an upward snap.
Xiao Mi wasn't left behind either; she sprang from Xiao Hei's back, grabbing the cucumber mid-air, landing as she munched it down with crunching sounds, then effortlessly bounced back onto Xiao Hei.
