"Yes, Sumu is right. Nowadays, everyone has to earn their own living. How can we always rely on others?"

"That's right. Although Aunt Jia's situation is difficult, she can't always rely on others for help. She has to find a way out on her own."

"Speaking of which, Sumu works diligently in the factory and earns his money penny by penny. Why should he share it with others unconditionally?"

"Besides, the compensation that Yi Zhonghai gave to the Jia family, plus the money raised previously, is not a small amount when added together. How can you still say that you can't support a child?"

"Alas, this world is not easy for anyone, but it is always right to be self-reliant. Aunt Jia should think about how to improve her life on her own."

"Having said that, it's not like Aunt Jia hasn't helped us before, but it's really hard to bear to see her throwing a tantrum like this now."

"I hope Aunt Jia can listen to Su Mu and stop making such a fuss. After all, living in harmony with neighbors is the most important thing."

In the end, Jia Zhang could only glare at Su Mu indignantly, then turned and left, leaving behind embarrassment and discussions.

Su Mu closed the door and continued to live his peaceful life, as if nothing had happened.

Seeing this, Jia Zhang knew that she would gain nothing by continuing to make a fuss, so she turned around and left in dismay.

"Sumu, Sumu, you are such a heartless person. Just wait and see. One day you will regret it!"

As she spoke, she turned around and glared fiercely in the direction of Su Mu's house, as if she wanted to condense all her dissatisfaction and resentment in this one glance.

"Hmph, don't think you're so proud now, there will be a time in the future when you'll have to beg me for help!"

Seeing that her words did not cause any reaction, Jia Zhang became even more annoyed.

But she also knew that continuing to make a fuss would only make herself more embarrassed.

Therefore, she could only quicken her pace and try her best to leave the scene without looking too embarrassed.

The next morning, as soon as the sky turned pale, Su Mu got up and prepared to start his busy day.

He checked the condition of the tricycle, and after confirming that it was correct, he rode it towards the street office.

On the way, the breeze blew on his face, bringing with it the unique coolness of the early morning, which lifted his spirits.

When we arrived at the street office, the sun had just risen. The golden sunlight sprinkled on Sumu's face, making him look particularly energetic.

As soon as he parked the tricycle, he heard a familiar voice: "Sumu, you're here." Turning around, he saw it was Director Wang from the Street Office, looking at him with a smile.

Su Mu responded with a smile, "Director Wang, good morning!" His voice was full of anticipation and enthusiasm for the new day.

Director Wang nodded, with a look of approval in his eyes.

She patted Sumu's shoulder gently and said earnestly, "Sumu, the pheasants, ducks and rabbits you brought back from hunting last time received a very good response from the supply and marketing cooperative, and now the stock is running low. Can you make another trip up the mountain to hunt some more?"

Although Director Wang did not finish her words, Su Mu already fully understood what she meant.

He actually had this idea in mind a long time ago, because he also knew that these wild game were very popular in the market and could bring considerable profits to the supply and marketing cooperative.

So he answered readily: "Okay, Director Wang, I'll get ready and leave right away."

Upon hearing this, Director Wang showed a satisfied smile on his face and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay! Sumu, I'm at ease with you doing the work. Be careful on the road and come back soon."

Su Mu responded, turned and walked towards the tricycle, and began to put the tools needed for hunting into the truck bed one by one.

There are hunting knives, bows and arrows, ropes, and cloth bags and baskets for carrying prey.

He went through it carefully to make sure he hadn't missed anything.

After everything was ready, Sumu got on the tricycle and started the engine.

With a roar, he drove the tricycle and set off on the road to the mountains.

The wheels roll, carrying his hopes and dreams, towards unknown challenges.

Arriving at the foot of the mountain, Sumu parked the tricycle and took out his carefully prepared hunting tools from the bed.

There are also cloth bags and ropes for carrying prey.

After carefully checking my equipment to make sure everything was in place, I set out on the trail up the mountain.

The sun shines dappled through the mountains and forests, and the breeze blows across your face, bringing bursts of fresh air.

Sumu walked along the familiar path, hearing the rustling of leaves and occasionally the growls of wild beasts in the distance. All of this made him feel both familiar and intimate.

With rich experience and keen intuition, Sumu quickly found traces of animals in the mountains and forests.

He tracked carefully, afraid of disturbing his prey.

After some patient waiting and clever planning, he finally succeeded in capturing several pheasants and rabbits, and unexpectedly discovered a fat wild duck, which made him overjoyed.

As time went by, Sumu became more and more adept at hunting in the mountains and forests.

Within an hour, his sacks and ropes were filled with prey - 10 sturdy hares, 15 pheasants with bright feathers, and 10 fat wild ducks, which looked particularly tempting in the morning light.

Su Mu secretly calculated in his heart that such a harvest would be enough to satisfy Director Wang of the supply and marketing cooperative and would also bring a considerable income to his family.

Just as he was about to pack up his things and return home with a full load, an unusual noise caught his attention.

Su Mu stopped, held his breath, and looked around with sharp eyes.

Not far away, a golden figure was looming among the bushes. It was a little leopard!

Although this little leopard has not yet fully grown, it already shows the demeanor of a king.

It has golden fur dotted with black spots, like a fine piece of natural art.

Curiosity and vigilance flashed in the little leopard's eyes, and its limbs were strong and agile, ready to deal with possible threats at any time.

Su Mu's eyes lit up instantly, and he realized that this was not just a chance encounter, but a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

In this era, leopards are undoubtedly extremely rare prey, and their value is far beyond that of ordinary game.

He quickly adjusted his mindset and decided to try to capture the little leopard.

However, he was also well aware of the leopard's ferocity and agility, and that any carelessness could endanger his own safety.

Therefore, Sumu approached cautiously, using the surrounding trees and bushes as cover, and gradually narrowed the distance between him and the little leopard.

He held the hunting knife tightly in his hand, but did not rush to attack. Instead, he waited patiently for the best time to catch the prey.

Finally, at the moment when the little leopard lowered its head to drink water, Sumu seized the opportunity and jumped out suddenly.

Relying on his hunting experience and agility, he quickly approached the little leopard and accurately put a rope around its neck.
