Children in the mountains

Next Chapter

In the north of the Qinling Mountains, the high mountains are towering, among the mountains, the ancient trees stand upright, there are a lot of rare animals shuttling between the mountains and forests, there is a river at the foot of the mountain, meandering along the mountain, climbing high and looking, as if the mountain wears a jade belt.

Halfway up the river, there is a mountain village of less than 200 people, and the civil houses of the mountain village are built next to each other. Immediately down from the village, there are layers of terraced rice fields, and it is the time of the autumn harvest, and the golden wheat wool hangs all over the hillside. The men were busy in the fields, and the joy of the harvest was conveyed in the laughter of each other.

A group of children were frolicking on the sand dunes on the banks of the river, ranging from four or five years old to teens, running sweatily, chasing seven or eight large buffaloes who were leisurely munching on the sand dunes, supervised by the half-grown children, who did not let them step into the fields and spoil the crops. The living conditions in the mountains are difficult, and these children will help the family do some work within their ability from an early age, such as herding cattle, chopping wood, collecting pigweed, etc., and herding cattle is the easiest job. The four-year-old tiger girl is the youngest and loves to cry, she can't keep up with the footsteps of which children, which children are more reluctant to take a "crybaby" to play, she can only hold her little black dog, boring on the slate to draw circles, black big eyes keep turning around, long eyelashes are still hanging with tears that have just cried, chubby little face dirty hanging two nose dragons, from time to time with cuffs to wipe, covered with mud, completely an abandoned little beggar image.

"Chubby, they don't play with them, let's find a place to play ourselves, huh", Tiger Niu muttered to the little black dog in her arms. With his short legs, he staggered towards the mountain path and climbed up the mountain. The little black dog is the little cub that has been raised for ten years by the tiger girl's family and has just given birth to a little cub of less than a month, with a litter of five little guys, all of whom are extremely cute. Flowers, white, and white, only the one who was held in the arms of the tiger girl, the whole body was as black as ink, there was no variegated color, tiger head and tiger brain, can eat and sleep. The body looks much stronger than the other four, and he especially likes to burrow into the arms of the tiger girl. "Chubby" is the name that Little Tiger Niu gave to her playmate Little Black Dog.

Hu Niu remembers the last time she went out with her sister to hunt pigweed, her sister put her on a big stone slab outside a cave, basking in the sun and fell asleep, and when her sister came back from picking a basket full of pigweed, they also rested at the entrance of the cave for half an hour. The depth of the cave is only a few square meters, enough for five or six people to rest, empty, it looks like the people in the village specially opened up the cave for everyone to rest, without any decoration, usually the adults chop wood on the mountain, when working, it is mostly used to shelter from the wind and rain, rest and shade the sun. The tiger girl hugged the little black dog, climbed on the big stone slab, put the little black dog on the big stone slab, and lay next to the little black dog, comfortably enjoying the sunshine. The little fat hand poked over the little black dog's body and played happily, and the little black dog also cooperated with the mouth to keep humming and chirping, and it was not the pink little tongue that stretched out and licked the tiger girl's chubby little hands and face, which made the tiger girl giggle from time to time. The two little guys were tired of playing, and the little tiger girl threw the little black dog to the mouth of the cave, a little high, and after the little black dog landed on the ground, he made a protest of "Wangwang, hum", and he also climbed down the slate with his buttocks, hugged the corner of the slate, and jumped down bravely, and fell asleep against the cave wall by leaning on the cave wall.
