Having tidied up the east wing, it was about time for Chen Afu to head to the gate of the Fu Garden to pick up Dabao and Alu. Zhui Feng, Sasa, and Wang Cai diligently followed, but when she called Qi Qi and Hui Hui, who were grumpily squatting on the roof, they raised their little heads defiantly, ignoring her. She could faintly hear Qi Qi's muffled cries of "stinky woman", her teeth grinding with frustration.
She was helpless and regretful, having inadvertently offended those two hot-headed creatures.
On this trip to Dingzhou, she not only brought gifts for everyone but also for the Animal House. As before, she brought food for them. But when she thought about the generous "dowry" that Sasa had brought, Chen Afu felt she shouldn't be like those nasty old women of this era who took things without giving anything back.
