Xuexue laughed and said, "Are you foolish? You have a pair of wings, don't you know how to run away?"
Xiao Jiu felt extremely aggrieved; in the master's eyes, it was worth only a meal: "Why would I run away? They've sold me off, how could I shamelessly come back?"
"Of course you can! That way, if I don't have money for food next time, I can sell you a few more times—how great is that!" Xuexue teased.
Xiao Jiu couldn't help bursting into tears: "Boo-hoo... The human world is just dark; our bird world is much better."
Xuexue couldn't resist countering, "But over there, apart from bugs, there's no meat to eat!"
Xiao Jiu loved eating meat so much, yet its master kept tempting it with this, causing Xiao Jiu to yell: "Master, you're mean! Xiao Jiu won't be friends with you!"
