Tiger, I rejected the iron rice bowl.

At this moment, on a hillside in the distance, Wang Yuyu was dragging a sika deer back home!

This is his harvest for the day, enough for his family of four to have a full meal, with some left over.

Suddenly, he heard the tiger mother's anxious calls. His heart tightened, and he immediately put down the sika deer he was carrying in his mouth, shouting back in the tiger mother's direction, "Awoo~ Awoo~"

Hearing Wang Yuyu's response, Tiger Mom felt a little relieved and quickly responded a few more times, conveying the message that "the cubs are missing."

The two tigers exchanged a few words across the distance, and Wang Yu quickly understood the situation, realizing that there was no major danger for the time being, which reassured her considerably.

But they didn't dare to delay, so they immediately dragged the sika deer and quickened their pace toward the den!

Just as the tiger mother was calling anxiously, the two little ones who were playing in the snow nearby finally heard their mother's voice, immediately stopped playing, and ran quickly towards the den.

The bigger and faster younger brother ran the fastest and came back first!

Upon sensing his mother's anger, the younger brother immediately forced a fawning smile.

The little tail swayed gently, and it tucked its body in, very sensibly running to its mother and lying down obediently.

It buried its head in its mother's arms, rubbing against her fur, and kept trying to appease her and calm her anger.

Tiger Mom looked at her son in her arms, but didn't say much. She just lowered her head and kept sniffing her son, carefully checking if he was injured.

At that moment, her daughter also rushed back.

She was smaller and slower than her brother, so she was left far behind.

When she saw that Tiger Mom was examining her younger brother without doing anything, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to herself, "Luckily, my brother ran fast and took care of Mom first. Now everything should be fine."

Thinking it over, she quietly stepped forward and, taking advantage of the moment when Tiger Mom was focused on checking her younger brother, gave him an approving look, as if to say "Well done."

But then the atmosphere suddenly shifted. Tiger Mom looked up and saw her daughter had returned. The gentleness on her face vanished instantly, replaced by a palpable aura of murderous intent.

She let out a sudden growl and bit her son's nape: "Who told you to take your sister out like that?"

"You're not listening to me again, are you?"

"What will your father and I do if we encounter danger...?"

While growling and scolding, the tiger mom's slaps kept landing on her son, full of reproach.

The son knew he was in the wrong, and he couldn't beat his tiger mom, so he could only lie obediently on the ground, neither resisting nor dodging, letting his tiger mom beat and scold him, his ears drooping, occasionally letting out a low groan of grievance.

But the daughter couldn't stand it anymore. She quickly stepped forward, pushed her head away from her mother, opened her small body, and firmly protected her younger brother behind her. She stared at her mother with a determined look, not allowing her to hit her brother anymore.

Upon seeing this, the younger brother immediately scrambled to his feet, hid behind his older sister, peeked out with his little head, and looked timidly at his tiger mom.

With his sister's support, he became bolder.

The older sister turned around, licked the spot on her younger brother's neck where their mother had bitten him, her eyes full of concern, and growled at him, "Ouch~ little brother, are you alright?"

"Does it hurt?"

"Mom hit too hard..."

After comforting her younger brother, she turned around and growled at her "tiger mom," "Ow~ Mom, this has nothing to do with my brother! I begged him to take me out to play!"

"Stop hitting him, hit me instead!"

"Otherwise, I'll just lie on the ground and not get up!"

As she spoke, she actually lay down on the ground, blocking between her mother and brother, her little body tense, looking like she was ready to "hit me if you want."

Looking at her two troublesome cubs, the tiger mother let out a heavy growl, her eyes filled with helplessness.

Actually, she didn't want to discipline the children, but if something happened, she would regret it!

Although tigers are the kings of the forest, those were adult tigers!

The mountains and forests are fraught with danger. They are still too young and not yet the true kings of the forest. It is not uncommon for them to be hunted by other predators.

She was so afraid something would happen to the children!

The mother tiger circled around her two cubs warily, sniffing them to check where they had run off to, whether they had picked up any dangerous scents, or if they were injured anywhere...

But the daughter immediately became unhappy, jumped up from the ground, glared angrily at her tiger mom, and wagged her little tail vigorously!

She felt that her mother didn't trust her and her brother. With their strength, ninety percent of the animals in the neighborhood wouldn't dare to mess with them!

Even if they encounter danger, they can handle it, so their mother doesn't need to worry so much.

Tiger Mom remained calm, continuing her inspection as if she hadn't seen her daughter's angry glare. She was focused on comparing the scents on her children to those in her memory.

It must be said that the Siberian tiger is a truly intelligent and cautious animal.

Seeing that their mother was ignoring them, the two little ones lost their temper and simply stopped paying attention to her. They lay down on the snow and picked up a dry twig to play with!

After a short while, the tiger mom checked on the two cubs and, making sure they were alright, went to the side, lay down, and closed her eyes to rest!

The older sister quietly observed her mother for a while. Seeing that her eyes were closed and her breathing was steady, she knew that her mother was asleep. So she quietly crawled to her younger brother's side, rubbed her head against his ear, and growled softly to indicate that her mother was asleep and that she could go out to play again later.

But soon, the older sister regretted it!

In the blink of an eye, my younger brother disappeared without a trace, and I don't know where he went.

She rushed to where her younger brother had been lying, bent down, and sniffed the snow, inwardly cursing, "That brat! He didn't even wait for me and ran off first! That's so mean!"

She looked up at her tiger mom, who was still resting with her eyes closed, tilted her round little head and thought for a moment. A sly glint flashed in her eyes, and she finally decided to report to her mom that her little brother had run away again.

She strode over to her mother and hissed in her ear, "Ouch~ Mom, my little brother's run away again! Call him back right now!"

After saying that, she turned to look in the direction her brother had run away, a smug smile on her face, as if she was waiting to see a good show.

Tiger Mom was startled awake by her daughter's roar, and she looked up abruptly, her face full of anger.

He quickly looked around and, finding that his son had indeed disappeared again, he trembled with rage and let out a furious growl into the forest: "Awooo~"

Actually, the younger brother didn't run very far; he was just playing behind a clump of trees below the nest.
