Chapter 40: Winter
Xiu Lun underestimated the incubation cycle of snake eggs, thinking that they would be able to hatch in about ten days like bird eggs. I didn't expect the heavy rain in winter to come like this, and later Xiu Lun asked Feier, who said that it would take at least a month to hatch.
Xiu Lun pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling a little tired.
"It's cold." At this time, it was pouring rain outside, and the weather was already cold and biting cold for Chu Bangqing. The temperature change is too great, and the rain that began last night has been cold to the bone marrow this morning. The wind howled and the trees shook. Huge thunder was accompanied by lightning, and the sound of raindrops hitting the ground and wooden houses was no less than thunder. Fortunately, the wooden house is sturdy, otherwise Chu Wanqing would have to worry that the rain would break through the wooden house.
Chu Wanqing shrank into Mio's warm fur, and the big tiger rubbed it flatteringly, and pulled Chu Wanqing tighter.
Sure enough, in the winter, Qingqing liked me more.
Mio narrowed her tiger eyes slightly, and gently sniffed the fragrant little female in her arms.
"You wear two layers of the sweater and pants I knit for you, and then put the animal skins sewn for you on the outside. Don't go out again in winter, and if you do, wear that bear skin and let them hold you. You must eat a little more, you can't eat so little like you do in summer, you will freeze to death in winter. Phil said the longest sentence of his life, winter is coming, he is now feeling sleepy, and it will be time to hibernate in two days. He really wanted to stay by Chu Bangqing's side, but he couldn't break through the physiological barrier of the species.
"Hmm." Chu Wanqing looked at Feier, who was expressionless in front of him but chattered like an old mother, and felt funny in his heart.
"I'm in the cabin, and if anything happens, wake me up."
"Hmm."
After repeated instructions, he kissed Chu Bangqing again, but because he was worried that he was cold, he didn't dare to get tired of Chu Wanqing more, so he went back to his wooden house.
By the way, I took my own eggs.
Xiu Lun breathed a sigh of relief, he had been focusing on hatching eggs recently, and he didn't have time to go to Qingqing to compete for favor.
Phil went back to his cabin, formed a tight lump of snakes, and surrounded seven white and tender eggs in the middle, and the snake tilted its head and fell asleep.
Chu Wanqing was still in confinement, afraid that Chu Wanqing would be cold, Rogge burned the kang to Chu Wanqing early, and helped Fei Er light a fire for him.
Yes, under the guidance of Chu Bangqing, everyone's wooden house was plastered with mud, and a hole was dug to build a chimney, and a mud kang and stove were connected, so that the whole house was warm and warm, and they could cook at home, and they would not smoke and burn.
It's just that Phil strongly asked not to use the earthen kang. Please, he's a snake, and the sleeping kang will be cooked!
So Chu Wanqing designed a heating device for Feier with only one chimney from ignition to discharge, which could make the temperature in the house slightly higher. Phil nodded in agreement.
Chu Bangqing rubbed on Mio to keep warm, and stroked the big cat.
Luo Ge fed Chu Bangqing a piece of preserved fruit and asked, "What will Qingqing eat later?" ”
"Let's eat hot pot." Petting cats and eating hot pot, is there anything more refreshing than this?
"Okay." Rogge handed him the other preserved fruits he was carrying, and braved the rain to go to the tent to get meat, which was now full of dried meat and fish. Take out five strips and cut them into thin slices.
Rogge was busy on the side, Chu Wanqing looked at his back, and the proud tail.
"Qingqing, open your mouth." Seeing that Chu Bangqing's eyes had been glued to Luo Ge, he pinched a piece of dried fruit and handed it to Chu Bangqing.
Chu Wanqing opened his mouth to take it, squinted happily, and looked at He Lun.
"You can eat it too."
Ever since he knew that He Lun also liked to eat fruit, Chu Bangqing was as happy as having found an omnivorous fellow from a group of carnivores. Therefore, every time you eat the fruit, you have to be together.
"Qingqing, feed me." Qi Lun's smile crooked, upsetting Chu Bangqing's heartstrings.
Okay, seduce me.
"Na~" Chu Wanqing sweetly put the preserved fruit in Yu Lun's mouth. The smile in his eyes was even worse, and the corners of his mouth were upturned and chewed on Chu Bangqing's preserved fruit.
"Huh." Meat pad Mio squealed dissatisfied.
Chu Wanqing raised his eyebrows and stuffed a piece of preserved fruit into the tiger's mouth.
"No spitting." Eat any vinegar. This tiger is really under-trained.
Mio didn't like the fresh fruit with the juice, let alone the dry, sweet and greasy preserved fruit. The pure carnivore Mio Tiger's face was wrinkled, and he looked at Chu Bangqing miserably.
"No spitting." Chu Wanqing rubbed Mio's face with a smile, feeling funny.
"Qingqing, the water is boiling, let's eat." Rogge shouted, and Chu Wanqing turned his head in response. Mio quickly spit it out and hid under him, and the action was done in one go.
Chu Wanqing turned his head to see that Mio pretended that nothing had happened.
Everyone knows Mio's small actions, and Chu Bangqing does not debunk them, but is only secretly happy in his heart.
"Finished eating?"
"Huh." Mio looked innocent.
"Let's eat." Chu Bangqing patted Mio's head, and then was carried by He Lun to the stove.
Well, since she laid the egg, Chu Bangqing's feet haven't touched the ground for more than a week, and she was hugged over.
"Eat more." The three beasts who had already mastered the skills of chopsticks were diligent one by one, and sandwiched all their good meat in Chu Bangqing's bowl.
"I can't eat it, don't clip it!" She's going to die fat! After she became pregnant, she felt that she was fat, and if she had to be fed like this, she would soon become a big fat person like other females!
"No, you have just given birth now, you have to make up more, and you can't eat as little as before. Shrewd. After speaking, Mio took another chopstick to Chu Wanqing.
"Whoever clips me again, don't sleep with me this winter!"
Hearing this, the three beasts looked at each other. At the same time, he lowered his head, shook the meat, and then put it in his bowl and opened his mouth to eat it.
Chu Wanqing was very satisfied with their performance, "This is good." ”
The wooden house was full of joy and the smell of meat, but the people outside shivered.
"Patriarch..... The patriarch ...... "While he was eating, the people in the house heard someone shouting outside.
The voice is thin and weak, as if it is a female?
"What's going on?" Chu Wanqing raised his head and glanced at Yan Lun meaninglessly.
"I don't know." Seeing Chu Bangqing's gaze, Qi Lun was a little flustered.
I'm not! I didn't! Listen to me!
"I'll go out and have a look now." He got up, thought for a moment, and dragged Mio out with him.
"What are you dragging me for!" Mio was dragged up in a daze, but he just couldn't get out of the doorframe.
It's raining outside, hey!
The skin was lifted, and he could see through the rain curtain the face of the comer.
Lisa.
"Who?" Chu Wanqing asked.
"The new female."
"Let her in, it's raining outside, it's cold."
Lisa was covered with an extra animal skin, and although it was soaked, the cold rain still made her shiver.
"Something to come in and talk about." Yan Lun was wary of Lisa, after all, Tina almost made him suffer a big loss, and Lisa had to guard against it.
