Where Lies the Dignity

Shuang'er's eyes widened for a moment, and then, tilting her head, she excitedly called out, "What about me? What about me?"
Chu Qingzhi responded coldly, "You didn't complete the task, so there's no reward."
Shuang'er flew to Chu Qingzhi's arm, trying to argue for some benefit, "That's not fair…"
Chu Qingzhi hadn't expected Shuang'er to go to such lengths for food, which was a surprise. "If you want a reward, then complete your tasks properly tomorrow, or you'll get nothing."
Rules had been set and had to be followed; otherwise, if indulged once, how would she manage the thirty-five parrots in the future?
After a while of sulking, seeing Chu Qingzhi's firm stance, Shuang'er reluctantly retreated, but its eyes bore a look of grievance towards Chu Qingzhi.
Chu Qingzhi told it, "You can't blame me for this; who asked you to be lazy?"
It was a good opportunity to make an example out of one to caution the others!
