Xiao Xiaohui drooped his head and followed behind Xiao Chengbang.
Xiao Chengbang held a calf in his hand.
Xiao Xiaohui pleaded, "Uncle Cheng, can we not go to my second aunt's house? I promise to keep an eye on Little Light from now on! I won't let him do this again!" Little Light was the name Xiao Xiaohui had given the calf. Xiao Xiaohui was frustrated. Little Light was usually very obedient. He knew what to eat and what not to eat.
However, when Xiao Xiaohui was off bird nest hunting with his pals, Little Light had munched off a whole plot of young seedlings. And he was caught red-handed.
Xiao Xiaohui's heart pounded. He was ashamed to face his eldest cousin. He had let her down. He was afraid that his eldest cousin wouldn't let him herd the cows anymore. Then, he would return to receive a beating from his father.
