Chapter 18: The Little White-Eyed Wolf

In the middle of the night, Qingshan Village is rarely still a little bright.

Carrying the wild boar down the mountain, there are children whose relatives have gone up the mountain to guard, the sharp eyes saw people first, pulled out their legs and ran to the village, and shouted while running: "Caught, wild boar caught, there is meat to eat!" ”

Sanzhu, who was sleepy and dozing in the corner, was woken up by his friend's voice, rubbed his eyes and ran towards his family.

"Dad, big brother, Siya, you're not hurt, are you?"

Seeing his son, Shan Dalang smiled and picked him up and put it around his neck and rubbed it, "It's all right, go home and eat meat!" ”

Everyone was beaming, and Shan Tao, who was following Big Brother, also smiled at Sanzhu, and tightened the satchel in his arms again.

After making a fuss for a while, Sanzhu struggled to get off the ground, came to Shantao's side, and poked the bulging bag curiously, "Siya, what treasure are you carrying here?" ”

Yamamoto lifted the blanket a little, revealing a wolf cub curled up in a ball, like a snow ball, breathing very weakly.

"Can you still pick up puppies on the mountain?"

Sanzhu looked at it as if he reached out to touch it, and was slapped on the hand by Dazhu, "That's not a dog, it's a wolf cub, be careful with your fingers." ”

After training his younger brother, Dazhu slowed down his voice again to comfort Shan Tao and said: "Siya, this cub is difficult to live, and it can't be raised when it is raised, don't be sad if you bring it back and die, brother will find you a dog cub to raise." ”

In the past, Dazhu was a taciturn spokesperson in the eyes of Shan Tao, but now the relationship between Dafang and Erfang has eased, and the juniors are even more affectionate, and Dazhu has also shown his considerate and careful side as a big brother.

Of course, his two stupid younger brothers and his sensible and capable sister have to be treated differently, Dazhu thinks about those crying female dolls, and feels that it is necessary to prepare Siya psychologically first.

The mountain peach holding the wolf cub is uncertain about whether it can survive.

But when she finally saw the dying eyes of the she-wolf, she always remembered the eyes of the queen mother in her previous life, and when she came back to her senses, she had already held the wolf cub in her arms.

Not only is the she-wolf seriously injured, but the wolf cub also has a long wound on its hind legs, and it is estimated that it has not eaten much, it is thin and small, and its eyes have not opened.

"Kill the pig and divide the meat at noon tomorrow, everyone have a good rest tonight!"

The wild boar was placed in Uncle Sun's house, Qingshan Village is not large, less than 100 households, according to the household, nearly 200 catties of pigs are enough, and the people who have contributed more are divided.

Because Shan Tao successfully pointed out the hiding location of the wild boar, it saved everyone a lot of effort, and it was also calculated according to a young man who contributed to it.

The old mountain family also didn't sleep, the big room and the second room remembered the family members who went up the mountain, and the Du family remembered the pork that didn't eat in the stomach.

When he returned home, in addition to the big house family and his father, Shan Tao also saw a girl a few years older than him.

"It's back, mother, look at it, it's not hurt, right?" Du Yingqiuba looked in front of the door, and when he saw Shan Tao, he immediately pulled the person over and checked it over and over again.

Yamajiro went back to the house and brought hot water at the right temperature, and gave his daughter a bowl, "Drink some hot water and go to the cold." ”

Ginger is a valuable condiment in the farmer's house, and the mountain family can't afford to use it, so they can only make do with drinking hot water.

Shan Chunhua, who was standing next to Du's family, looked at the affectionate second room with a strange expression, and muttered, "How long have I been in the county seat?" Why did the second brother and sister-in-law change when they came back? ”

After Du Shi heard the news of tomorrow's pig, his heart was put back in his stomach, yawned loudly, and pulled his daughter to the house, "It's not a kiss, you, just remember your brother's goodness......"

After returning to the second room, Shan Tao took the wolf cub out and handed it to Du Yingqiu: "Mother, look at it, Uncle Sun said that this leg can't be saved." ”

"Where's the puppy?" Du Yingqiu took the wolf cub, took the lamp to see that it was not a puppy, and did not ask the origin, first studied its injuries, and stretched out his hand towards Shan Erlang for a while: "Thread the needle." ”

Shan Erlang skillfully turned out the needle and thread, roasted the needle on the candle flame and barely sterilized it, and the thread was only ordinary cotton thread, and handed it to Du Yingqiu's hand.

Du Yingqiu first carefully cut off the broken flesh of the wolf cub with scissors, and then slowly stitched up its wound with needles and threads.

The look is similar to the usual embroidery, but Shan Tao saw the sudden change in his mother's temperament, and seemed to have become extremely focused and serious.

The wound was halfway stitched up, and the wolf cub was woken up by pain, opened his eyes dizzily, smelled all unfamiliar breath, opened his mouth and wanted to bite the nearest hand, but was caught by Shan Tao and snapped his fingers on the nose.

"Be honest, save your life."

When the wolf cub reacted again, the wound had been stitched up, and the white cotton thread blended perfectly with its hair, except for the small threads that were deliberately left, the wound was almost invisible.

The wolf cub who woke up broke free from Du Yingqiu's embrace, shrunk down at the foot of the bed, and whimpered at the three of them.

The threat it thought was just the sound of milk whirring in the eyes of the three of them, and Yamajiro even pinched its furry tail with interest, "It's worthy of a wolf, and it's like this, and you still want to threaten others." Tao Tao, where did this come about? ”

"Picked up from the mountain." Shan Tao said in a few words about the experience of catching wild boars and meeting wolves, and said with some hesitation, "I looked at the eyes of the she-wolf, obviously I didn't hear anything, but I seemed to see through its thoughts, and it wanted me to save its children." ”

For the strangeness of Shan Tao's body, the couple is not surprised, their eyes are comparable to X-rays, and they can see something that ordinary people can't see, they also feel normal.

The inquisitive Yamajiro also asked Yama Momo if he could see the ghost, and received a negative answer.

"All things have spirits, maybe it's really the she-wolf's entrustment." Du Yingqiu washed his hands and rubbed the head of the mountain peach, "But after all, they belong to the mountains, and when they heal their injuries, they will be sent back to the mountains." ”

Shan Tao is also not touched by the white-eyed wolf behavior of the wolf cub, she has never raised small animals, but it is because of that idea that she came to the rescue.

It turned out that the wooden board where Shan Tao slept was turned out and put in the corner of the bed, and there were really no extra clothes in the cabinet, so he threw a dry rag to serve as a quilt.

"If you want to live, sleep well. If you dare to bite again, you will have your teeth pulled out. ”

He said cruel words that the wolf cub couldn't understand, but he carefully put the soft flesh holding the back of the wolf cub's neck on the wooden board in his hand, and filled it with half a bowl of water in a clay bowl.

The wolf cub's teeth have not grown, and it really doesn't pose any threat, so a family of three who have been busy for most of the night simply cleaned up and snuggled up to sleep together.

The wolf cub, who couldn't find its mother, was sleepy and hungry, so after a few words, he bit off the satchel that Yamamoto had placed on the table and dragged it to the wooden board.

After getting into the satchel, the wolf cub felt some familiar smell, curled himself up as if in his mother's arms, whimpered and fell asleep.
