Chapter 51 Punishment
Aunt Su stopped Zhang Zhaodi and didn't let her go in.

"We didn't see any rabbits."

"I asked the villagers, and they all said they hadn't seen any rabbits, but our two rabbits are gone. This is so frustrating. Those rabbits are sick and can't be eaten!"

Second Aunt Su's eyes dodged, and she glanced back inside. Seeing Zhang Zhaodi about to leave, she grabbed her and asked casually, "You said those two rabbits are sick. What's wrong with them? Tell me. If I see them, I can help you catch them."

"The reason we kept those two rabbits is because they were sick and eating them would cause harm. Forget it, you haven't seen the rabbits, so what's the point of telling you?"

Zhang Zhaodi said this and turned to leave.

Seeing Zhang Zhaodi so anxious, Second Aunt Su believed her a little and came out of the yard to stop her: "Then explain it clearly! If someone else catches you, I can still remind them."

"Rabbit? I seem to hear the sound of a rabbit in your house." Zhang Zhaodi turned and ran into the yard.

Seeing this, Aunt Su screamed that something was wrong and hurriedly caught up with Zhang Zhaodi.

Zhang Zhaodi ran into the kitchen and rummaged around.

Grandma Su ran out, picked up a feather duster and waved it at him: "Get out! Didn't you break off the relationship? Don't ever set foot in my house again."

Of course Zhang Zhaodi would not let Grandma Su hit her.

As she retreated, she said, "I'm warning you, if you see those two rabbits, you must return them to me and don't eat them."

"Get out, get out, don't let me see you again." Grandma Su cursed, drove Zhang Zhaodi out, and slammed the gate.

Second Aunt Su saw Zhang Zhaodi leave through the crack in the door, and then she said to Grandma Su, "Mom, is what she said true? If those two rabbits are sick, we dare not eat them."

"If she didn't say that, who would return her rabbits?" Grandma Su said, "Go look at those two rabbits. They're so fat, how could they be sick?"

"Mom is right." Uncle Su came out. "How could that mother and daughter be so kind? To put it bluntly, they just wanted to trick the rabbit back."

"That's right. If she was really sick, she'd just lose it. Why would she be looking for it? She's deliberately trying to scare us, hoping we'd return the rabbit we've caught! What a pipe dream."

Grandma Su waved her hand and said, "Second brother, kill the rabbit. Today, our whole family will have meat."

Su Dabao clapped his hands and laughed: "Great, great, there are rabbits to eat!"

"Shhhhh!" Grandpa Su made a gesture to silence the others. "Those two shrews are so fierce, we just have to eat secretly. We must not let them know."

Grandma Su said with disgust: "What a loser."

That night, both rabbits were eaten by the Su family. With their bellies bulging, they sat in the yard to enjoy the cool breeze, feeling as if all the resentment they had felt for the past few days had dissipated.

"My stomach hurts so much..." Su Dabao held his stomach and cried out, "Ouch, ouch, ouch..."

"Ah... my stomach... are those two rabbits really sick? Oh my God, it hurts so much... Help, help..."

First, Su Dabao started crying out in pain, followed by Grandma Su. The rest of the Su family looked terrified, and with such a shock, they soon developed symptoms as well. The entire family of five was screaming in agony.

Uncle Su was an adult man after all, so he managed to hold on and crawl to the door. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Su Yaoguang passing by and shouted, "Yaoguang girl, help me."

Su Yaoguang pretended to pass by and saw Uncle Su's appearance. She said in surprise, "Uncle Su, what's wrong with you?"

"I... I feel a little uncomfortable. Please help me find a doctor." Now that he needed help from others, he didn't dare to act arrogantly and could only lower his posture.

Su Yaoguang looked at Second Uncle Su and said, "Why do your symptoms look like you've been poisoned? We lost two sick rabbits. Are you going to catch and eat them?"

"No, I didn't eat the rabbit. I just had a sudden stomachache. I must have caught a cold." Uncle Su refused to admit it.

"Oh, it's just a cold. There's no rush. You can take your time to call a doctor. I have a more urgent matter here. The two rabbits I lost are seriously ill. If someone eats them, it will be fatal. I have to find them quickly. If it's too late and someone eats them, it will be a great sin. But it's not our fault. Our yard is well closed, and the cages are well locked. I don't know which disobedient child sneaked in and took them away. Kids nowadays really don't know their place."

"Niece, niece, please save them quickly. If it's too late, we will die." Uncle Su believed Su Yaoguang's words without a doubt.

"The cold won't kill me, I'd better go find some rabbits!"

"We ate the rabbit!" Aunt Su yelled, "Don't look for it anymore. We ate the rabbit."

"Save us quickly! If you don't, I'll sue you for murder," Grandma Su cursed.

"My mother just came to ask you, and you said you didn't eat it! Now you are lying to me to trick me into calling a doctor." Su Yaoguang was unhappy.

"It's really what we ate. Dabao was naughty, so we caught it at your house." Grandpa Su lay on the ground and stretched out his hand to Su Yaoguang. "Yaoguang, please save us."

Su Dabao cried loudly, crying and shouting that it hurt.

"It was my mother who told me to catch them. She said you have rabbits at home and I can eat their meat if I catch them. Woo woo... My stomach hurts so much... I don't want to die..."

"If you still don't believe me, go and see the corner of the yard. We've thrown the bones there," said Uncle Su. "Hurry up and save them. We're dying."

"Two rabbits, two taels of silver." Su Yaoguang held out his hand. "Pay me this money, and I'll hire a doctor for you."

"Are you crazy? Let's not talk about whether the rabbit is worth two taels of silver. This rabbit is sick. We still want compensation from you. What right do you have to ask us for money?"

"The rabbit was sick, but we are trying to find a way to treat it. It could have been cured. You caught our rabbits and ate them. Shouldn't you pay compensation? Besides, you just admitted that you let Su Dabao sneak in and catch my rabbits. Does that mean you can also sneak in and steal other things from my house? I advise you to think carefully about whether you want to live or get money. If you don't give it to me, then I won't care. You stole my rabbits, you deserve to die." Su Yaoguang made a gesture to leave.

"Here, here's the silver. Please save our lives." Grandpa Su shouted. "Old woman, if we die, she can still go in and search for the silver. Give her the silver!"

Grandma Su screamed in pain, and at this moment she could not care about anything else, so she had to go into the house to get the silver. When she handed the silver to Su Yaoguang, her eyes were fierce as if she wanted to eat someone.

"Give me another hundred coins, and I'll give you the medicine directly." Su Yaoguang held out his hand. "Of course, you don't have to trust me. I can run errands for you to find a doctor, but you have to give me twenty coins as a travel fee."
