“Stop crying!”
He shouted in a deep and angry voice, and slapped the small table on the carriage with his big hand, scaring the woman who was crying in the woman's arms so much that she stopped crying and dared not cry anymore.
The two brothers standing beside the carriage looked at each other when they saw this.
"Okay, let's talk it out nicely. The child is not ignorant." The woman said, looking at the middle-aged man, and patted her daughter in her arms: "Don't cry, your father must have his reasons for saying that. When you go out, you have to be careful in everything. You were too reckless just now."
The woman bit her lip, said nothing, and just lowered her head.
"If I hadn't stopped her just now, she wouldn't even know where her hands are now!" The middle-aged man frowned and said in a calm voice, glancing at his daughter.
Hearing this, several people were shocked: "What?"
“How could that be? I, I just wanted to touch that purple-gold spirit deer…” the woman said in a low voice, with disapproval in her eyes, thinking that her father was making a fuss out of nothing.
"How come?"
The middle-aged man knew what his daughter was thinking when he saw her expression. His face darkened immediately. "Do you think that ordinary people can own a purple-gold spirit deer? Do you think ordinary people would have those unfathomable people as attendants? Do you think that the man who was talking to you with a fan and a smile on his face is really kind to you?"
“Hmph!” He snorted heavily, and said angrily: “If I hadn’t stopped you from getting close to the purple-gold spirit deer, your hands would have been cut off by the man with the fan by now!”
Hearing this, the woman was horrified and looked incredulous.
The two men standing beside the carriage were also startled, and their expressions became serious: "Father, if we leave now, they won't mind my younger sister's previous disrespect, right?"
The middle-aged man was silent for a while, then said, "Probably not. If they cared, they probably wouldn't let us go." He looked at them and said, "When you are out, you have to be careful and modest. You have to think twice before doing anything to avoid getting into trouble."
"Yes, son, I will follow my father's teachings." The two men bowed in response.
The middle-aged man then looked at his daughter who was bowing her head, frowned and said to his wife, "When you go back, you must teach her the rules yourself and not let her go out for three months! If she doesn't control her temper, she may get into trouble anytime."
Seeing this, the woman responded. Following the middle-aged man's order, they continued on their way, but along the way, the atmosphere was less relaxed than before and more solemn.
After Fengjiu and the others had rested, they continued to move forward. Their journey was not very tight, and everyone was worried about Fengjiu's health, so the spirit deer carriage did not move very fast, but moved steadily and slowly.
This stretch of road was nothing but mountain paths and trees, with no towns or anything like that. They walked until it was getting dark before they came to a small village. When they entered the village, they saw several carriages parked there, as well as some guards guarding it.
Du Fan glanced at those people and said to Feng Jiu, "Master, these are the people we met during the day."
