The little guy came inside and saw they had all started eating. He was a little unhappy, especially when he saw his sister-in-law picking a piece of cured meat out of the serving bowl in the center of the table. He was so heartbroken he nearly burst into tears.

'If only I'd known there was meat to eat today, I wouldn't have gone to Second Brother's place for anything.'
The little guy was overcome with regret. The moment he was inside, he ignored everything else and made a beeline for the dinner table.
"Fuquan, is your second brother behind you? Why'd you come running back so fast by yourself?" Mrs. Xiao craned her neck to look behind her youngest son.
