As soon as the words came out, it felt that it didn’t fit its style. How could it learn from the big devil and talk about money all the time? It was too vulgar.
So, it asked Su Yi: [Yi Yi, is it delicious?]
Su Yi was looking at a ball of ice cream wrapped in gold foil on the plate in distress. All other food had been eaten, leaving only this golden ball. She felt that it would not taste good no matter how she looked at it.
Mao Tuan stared at the ball for a while and said: [Ah, those damn rich people.]
Just as the two of them were silent about the ball, someone suddenly said, “Are you the burden?”
Mao Tuan immediately disappeared.
Su Yi turned her head and moved her eyes down a little. She saw a boy of about six or seven years old, wearing a small suit, looking at her with a cocky look on his face.
“Are you the burden?” The boy repeated again.
Su Yi raised her eyebrows slightly, “What’s the matter, short-legged monster?”
The boy said angrily: “I’m not called the short-legged monster!”
“I’m not called the burden either.”
“I’m going to call you the burden!” He raised his chin with a look of arrogance.
Su Yi said calmly, “Then, I will call you the short-legged monster, the snotty-nosed monster, and the bed-wetting king.”
The boy blushed with anger, “You are the bed-wetting king. I haven’t wet the bed for a long time! I’m going to tell my mother!”
Su Yi said, “Go ahead. A crybaby like you can only look for your mother. You need your mother for food, water, and when you fall down. You also need your mother even if you can’t win an argument. I shouldn’t call you the short-legged monster. I should call you the mother monster.”
“You, you…” The boy was so angry that his chin was shaking.
He wanted to go find his mother, but because of the word ‘mother monster’, he refused to move.
Su Yi added: “Are you going to cry? Wait, let me take a picture and show it to your classmates so that everyone will know that you are a crybaby.”
“I’m not crying. Don’t take pictures!” The boy covered his face.
“Yang Lele, what are you yelling about here?” Xiao Yan appeared from behind them.
As soon as he came, Yang Lele seemed to have found a backer, immediately pointed at Su Yi, and shouted: “Cousin, help me scold her!”
Xiao Yan sighed. Yang Lele was his uncle’s youngest son, a notoriously mischievous one. Just now, he slipped in here when he wasn’t paying attention.
He was about to pull him away, but Yang Lele grabbed his clothes and said: “Cousin, scold her quickly, scold her quickly!”
Su Yi sat in a chair and watched. Suddenly, she reached out and grabbed Xiao Yan’s clothes. “Brother…”
Yang Lele immediately got angry, “You are not allowed to call him brother. You are such a burden—”
“Shut up! Who taught you to say such things?” Xiao Yan frowned, too lazy to waste time talking to him. He grabbed the boy by the collar and picked him up to go find his parents.
Seeing Yang Lele’s cries fade away, Mao Tuan popped up again and muttered: [Kids nowadays are really something. They know how to call others a burden at such a young age. It must be that their parents didn’t set a good example for them.]
After this incident, the gold foil ice cream ball in Su Yi’s hand melted a little and it looked even less tasty.
She looked around, and seeing that no one was paying attention, she secretly poured it into the trash can. Then, she found something else to eat as if nothing had happened.
Mao Tuan said again: [Yi Yi, you were deliberately provoking that naughty kid just now, weren’t you?]
“Don’t talk nonsense.”
Su Yi took a fancy to a piece of steak and took the time to reply in her busy schedule, “I am so pitiful, helpless, and weak.”
I don’t believe you.
Mao Tuan rolled its eyes.
