Chapter 699 A Fight Has Broken Out

Da Bao raised his small head and said proudly, he was a little greedy, but it didn't mean he had no brains.

He naturally wouldn't accept food from strangers, nor would he foolishly follow them. His mother's warning was really underestimating him.

"You must remember, your mother isn't joking. Do you know that if you go with others, they will beat you, bully you, then break your legs and abandon you on the street to be a beggar."

She couldn't help but recall the tragic fate of trafficked children reported in the news. Although this was ancient times, child trafficking still existed.

Feng Jin grew more worried, and she pulled Da Bao's hand, issuing a stern warning.

"I know, Mother, don't worry."

His ears were hurting from his mother's nagging, so Da Bao could only reply helplessly. It was really not easy for him; at such a young age, he had to comfort his mother.

"Don't worry, Mother, I won't be stolen."

He was so smart; how could those little tricks easily deceive him?

He just felt his mother was being overly worried, and this was something that would never happen.

Feng Jin glanced at Da Bao's still careless demeanor and knew he hadn't taken her words to heart at all. He probably still thought she was just talking nonsense and deliberately trying to scare him.

It was because Da Bao was too young to understand the dangers of the outside world. It was indeed too difficult for him to accept these things at such a tender age.

She would have to be more diligent, watch Da Bao more closely, and as time went by, he would naturally understand these matters when he grew up.

"Mother, is my juice ready?"

Da Bao's mind was only on juice. He had been looking forward to it for a long time, but his mother hadn't given it to him yet, which was making him anxious.

"It's almost ready. You greedy kid, you only think about eating." Feng Jin helplessly put her hand to her forehead. How could she have such a gluttonous son?

"You go and call your younger brother first. When there's something good, you should learn to share. Hurry up."

Children needed to be educated from a young age. If they were selfish and didn't share when they were young, they would only become worse when they grew up.

Therefore, she had always been dedicated to the education of Da Bao and Er Bao, never being negligent in the slightest.

"I'll go call my brother now. Mother, you have to save some for me."

Da Bao reminded her with concern before jumping off the chair and rushing out.

He ran so fast that he was gone in a flash. Feng Jin was worried he would fall.

"Run slower, don't fall!"

She shouted towards the direction where his figure had disappeared. She didn't know if Da Bao had heard her.

Less than fifteen minutes later, the tightly closed door was opened from the outside. Da Bao pulled Er Bao, whose clothes were slightly disheveled, inside.

Hearing the commotion, Feng Jin lifted her eyelids and saw the disheveled state of the two children. If one didn't know better, one would think they had come from a famine.

Both children had dirty faces. A few strands of hair were sticking to Er Bao's forehead, and Da Bao's clothes had a piece torn off somewhere.

The two of them looked extremely pathetic. It was clear at a glance that a big fight had just occurred.

"What happened to you two?"

Feng Jin suppressed her impatience and asked gently, trying her best to control her temper so as not to scare the children. She was really trying hard.

She believed anyone else would be furious seeing their children in such a state.

"Mother, Er Bao fought with someone, I went to break it up..."

Da Bao's soft voice rang out as he explained first, with an innocent expression that was hard not to believe.

"Mother, Da Bao fought..."

Er Bao quickly retorted, unwilling to concede. This had nothing to do with him; Da Bao was the one fighting, so why was it suddenly him?

Fighting... Feng Jin's expression suddenly changed. How old were they, and they were already fighting with others?

Looking at their state, it was clear they hadn't gained any advantage. She wondered who they had fought with.

Feng Jin moved a chair and sat opposite the two children. Her expression gradually became solemn, and she looked them up and down. After a moment, she asked in a deep voice, "Tell me, who did you two fight with, and why did you fight?"

No matter who started it, they were definitely both involved. Neither of them was innocent.

"Mother..."

"You shut up, let Er Bao speak."

As Da Bao was about to explain, Feng Jin directly ordered him to be quiet. She knew Da Bao too well and knew his character, so she didn't expect him to say anything useful.

"Mother, another child snatched my toy, and I went to ask for it... then we started fighting. They were bigger and taller than us..."

If it weren't for Da Bao and Er Bao being too young, and the opponents being much taller than them, and having an extra person, they wouldn't have ended up like this.

After some questioning, Feng Jin finally understood what had happened. She was truly exasperated by the two children. Knowing that the other party had more people and was much taller than them, they still insisted on fighting, which was clearly seeking trouble.

"Did you two fall into a pit to get into this state?"

Ling Mo Han had just returned from the morning court and hadn't changed out of his official robes. Seeing Da Bao and Er Bao covered in dirt as if they had fallen into a pit, he couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Your good son got into a fight with someone and ended up like this. You handle their discipline; I can't manage them anymore."

She was truly powerless. Wasn't it said that a child's misbehavior was the father's fault? So today, she would let Ling Mo Han, the father, discipline these two little rascals properly.

After Feng Jin left, Ling Mo Han's gaze fell upon the two children.

Da Bao and Er Bao felt guilty under his stare and lowered their heads in unison, not daring to meet his eyes.

"Truly useless. You fought with others and didn't get the better of them. Don't ever say you are my sons outside. You two are a disgrace."

Ling Mo Han didn't have much of an opinion about children fighting; it was normal for boys to roughhouse. However, he found Da Bao and Er Bao losing a fight to be disgraceful and shameful.
