The horizon unveiled the first hazy ray of dawn, and a sprightly figure was approaching from the distant mountain path.
He didn't have much luck last night hunting, he was worried about missing the market today, so as soon as he caught this porcupine, Di Yelei hurried home.
The house was quiet, it seemed that Sisi hadn't gotten up yet.
He pushed the main entrance a couple of times, but it remained closed.
"Sisi, Sisi, are you up? Please open the door."
Di Yelei called out a few times, but the house remained silent.
Could it be that Sisi was sleeping too deeply? Di Yelei was about to shout again, but then he changed his mind.
He walked to the side, looked at the tall courtyard wall, took a few steps back, ran and leaped, directly jumping over the wall, and landed in the courtyard.
"Sisi, Sisi, are you awake?"
Di Yelei knocked gently on the bedroom door. Could she really be sleeping so soundly that she hadn't heard anything?
"Dad? You're back."
