"Mm." She nodded slightly.
She had originally intended to invite him to have lunch, but she had persuaded the petty cat and second brother several times, and they simply refused to eat lunch. She guessed that fourth brother would not agree either, so it was better not to mention it at all.
For a man with such a large appetite in this family, having an extra meal would be a burden.
She looked around and didn't see second brother at home.
Xiao Qinghe, perhaps noticing she was looking for something, said indifferently, "Second brother went hunting in the mountains early this morning."
"Oh."
"Yesterday, second brother didn't get any prey... Hunting depends on luck, and when luck is good, the harvest is good; when luck is bad, returning empty-handed is inevitable." Second brother was probably afraid of her minding; his face was even rigid when he left this morning.
