Chapter 220 Leaving Home
Chapter 220 Leaving Home
Join forces with other cubs to bully his younger brother?
Yu He really wanted to laugh when she heard this. Even if she hadn't seen what the other cub in Ji Ye's family looked like, just looking at the bite marks on Li's body, and the cautious way he acted according to the instructions at home, she could still laugh.
She knew that Li had no status in his family at all.
If it were any other female family, no matter how little they cared about the male cub, they would not watch the cub have skin problems and lose so much hair without taking it seriously.
Aren’t they really afraid that one day they might develop a skin ulcer and die of a fever?
"If you're here to seek justice for another male cub in your family, then just say so.
Bai Qing injured another cub in your family. We will not deny this matter. We will compensate you for what you deserve.
But regarding Li, you should have your female go to the clan leader's house in person. To prevent other orcs in the tribe from saying I'm trying to steal your cubs, I'll send Li to the clan leader's house after he returns.
If you really want to take him back, go over there and get him!"
After saying that, Yu He didn't want to continue talking to Ji Ye.
It's boring. Talking to an orc who can't see the key to the matter is like playing the lute to a cow.
She didn't care about their family affairs, she only cared about whether she would be abused if she returned.
Because I have been caught in the rain before, I now want to give Li some protection within my ability.
Finally, Ji Ye angrily turned away and left.
But he is not stupid. Since Li is not at Yu He's house, he can just go to the place where Li often goes to find Li and then bring her home.
On this side, Mu Fei looked at the female who suddenly became depressed as soon as Ji Ye left.
He reached out and hugged the person, "Ah He, if you like Li, then we can find a way to keep him. Don't make that expression."
It's heartbreaking to watch.
Yu He raised her arms and put them around the male's waist, saying with some sadness, "But just like he said, Li is their cub after all. No matter how much I love Li, I can't keep him at home forever.
I don't know if Li will continue to be disliked by his mother after he returns. If he is abused again and Qingqing doesn't find out, it will be difficult for Li to grow up alive."
But there is no way to keep him, send him to Qingyue's house, and force the females of Ji Ye's family to come and make a personal guarantee. How credible can this verbal promise be?
As long as he is unable to protect himself at home, and as long as his mother and father continue to ignore him, he is still at risk of dying in infancy.
Mu Fei patted her back and helped her think of a solution, "After Li returns, we can ask Qingqing and the orcs from the patrol team to visit Li from time to time. This way he can grow up well."
Yu He shook her head. "What if Li can't stand this kind of life? Look, he's already over two years old. He can obviously transform into a human form and walk around, but have we ever seen him transform?"
It clearly feels unsafe in its surroundings, so it maintains its beastly form, with its powerful claws and sharp fangs, to prevent the other cubs from noticing its distress and thinking it's easy to bully.
Mu Fei heard that she was clearly talking about leaving the cub, but somehow, she felt that this female was saying this too clearly, as if she had experienced such a thing herself.
He couldn't help but hugged her tightly, "What do you want to do, Ah He? As long as you want, we will help you do it."
Yu He couldn't help but chuckle at his words. "Don't say that. You'll spoil me. Besides, I'm not that smart to immediately think of a better way to let Li grow up safely and healthily."
Mu Fei said sincerely, "No, Ah He is already very smart."
It was Li's status that restricted them from interfering too much.
Yu He buried her head in his abdomen without saying anything, but she was a little sad about Li's reaction after knowing this.
……
"Ouch?!"
Should we send Li to Grandma's house? Why? Isn't he our brother?
Bai Qing and Shu Shu couldn't understand why the "little brother" they regarded as their brother couldn't eat and sleep with them every day.
Chuchu also had some opinions. After all, Li was older than the three cubs. In addition, Li had indeed taken care of his younger brothers at home and was indeed like an older brother.
So Chuchu is quite reluctant to part with this brother who has a completely different temperament from her biological brother.
Only Li sat there, head lowered, without making any sound.
Yu He hugged Li helplessly and distressedly, saying, "Li, no matter what happens in the future, as long as you want to live in my house, you can come anytime."
There wasn't much she could do for him, but she could provide him with a safe place and a place where he could have food and drink, which would at least increase the possibility of him growing up safely.
As long as he grows up and is able to go out hunting, he will sooner or later overcome the hurdle of his original family.
Li looked at Yu He, who had always been gentle and considerate to him, and the sadness in his heart was beyond words.
He finally found an orc who truly loved him, but because she was not his mother, she could not keep him.
"Ow"
Mother Chuchu, don’t be sad, I will go back obediently.
Li did not have that kind of rebellious spirit. At least in the education he received, the rebellion of a cub was unrealistic.
But he will grow up one day, and even if his mother doesn't like him, he will be able to live well on his own.
At this time, Li could not have imagined that after this incident, his mother not only hated him, but also resented him.
That kind of hatred would not make him feel agonized, but as far as he could remember, his mother's disregard and blatant favoritism made it difficult for him to escape the harm caused by his original family and have the opportunity to choose his own life independently.
……
When Ji Ye's female heard Ji Ye relaying the goddess' words, she didn't feel particularly angry, because she was already ready to break the jar into pieces.
Since everyone thinks she is partial to Wu Lun, Li's younger brother, then she will show her partiality to everyone.
In the past, she just didn't care about Li, but from now on, Li can't expect to get anything from her.
Ji Ye's female went to Qingyue's house the next day. She didn't waste any words and said directly that Li was her cub. No matter how much Qingyue and Yu He loved her cub, there was no reason for them to keep Li.
As for her partiality towards her own little cub, people's fingers are of different lengths, and her heart is also biased. Shouldn't she be allowed to have her own preferences?
Besides, she just didn't like Li, and she didn't hit or scold him for no reason.
If he hadn't bullied his younger brother, she wouldn't have thought of educating him.
Since the tribe cares so much about her beating and scolding Li, and thinks that she has abused Li, then she will not beat or scold him in the future. As long as there is food and drink in her family, they will not forget him.
Ji Ye's female said a lot of things, but did not make any verbal promises. She just let the orcs in the tribe supervise her however they wanted. In short, she did what she said.
Li was taken back home by her.
Qingqing and the other orcs from the patrol team would hang out at Li's house from time to time. Li had indeed never been locked up in a small dark room, nor had he been beaten or scolded by his mother. Even when his younger brother bullied him, his mother and father would stop him immediately.
However, the position in this home is visibly marginalized.
