Chapter 86: The plum fruit is ripe

The mouse cubs were placed in a condensed wooden box carved with a cooling sacrifice pattern, and Mu Kui also spread a nest and covered them with a small quilt with gauze and rattan cloth.

After the mother rat recovered, Mu Kui first gave the mother rat some nutritious liquid food, and then put the mouse cub that came out of the most gentlemanly in front of the pacifier.

After sucking out the milk one by one, she ruthlessly put the mouse cubs back into the wooden box, carefully catching the weakest and smallest mouse cubs, and letting them feed first.

Pure and pure people are used as milk sucking tools.

But there's no way around it.

She watched the rat mother give birth with her own eyes, and every time she died, Mu Kui didn't feel good in her heart.

At this point, she naturally has to strike a balance and take care of the weak as much as possible, so that all the mouse cubs can survive as much as possible.

Thirty cubs were born, and the mother rat was very weak, and there was not enough milk at all.

After feeding almost the weakest eighteen rats, the remaining five able-bodied rat cubs went to eat again, and they could not suck milk.

Seeing that the mother rat was getting irritable and wanted to kick the rat cubs that were pestering her, Mu Kui quickly stopped it, fished out the five rat cubs, and put them in the female mouse that had given birth before.

As if he knew that this was not his own cub, the rat opened its mouth and wanted to bite the five rat cubs to death.

Seeing this, Mu Kui had no choice but to greet his brother, and the two of them pressed the four heads of the female mouse, so that the five milk mice could eat milk smoothly.

Afterwards, Mu Kui thought that it was not a matter to be like this.

She and her brother were away from home all day, and Mo and Shi were too young to feed the rats.

What can I do?

After worrying for a while, after thinking about it, Mu Kui still decided to squeeze more rat milk out and prepare it, put it in the ice cellar, take out some every once in a while, and feed it to the mouse cubs after it is warm.

It's just that, in this case, it will be hard for the little lion again.

When they were not at home, Shi Ji was basically responsible for transporting the food of the three small ones to the kitchen for heating.

Because he was the largest of the three.

It is similar to an adult earth dog (Chinese pastoral dog), and it is a big lion cub that can do more things.

Of course, more importantly, this lion cub is obedient and sensible, full of anthropomorphism, and can really do what many talents can easily do.

After making a plant hose, Mu Kui picked up the little lion and explained what he was going to do in the future one by one.

"When we go out, the house will be handed over to you. It's going to be a little harder, but I'll make you something to eat when I come back in the evening, and I won't treat you badly. Mu Aoi assured.

Hearing this, Shi Ji grinned and wanted to smile bitterly.

Being held like this by the female shovel officer, he could already feel the murderous gaze of the dog.

As for eating.

He, Shi Ji, never (quasi) eats alone.

If you don't share delicious food, you will be beaten by the two overlords at home.

Shi Ji once again shed tears of remorse in his heart.

He shouldn't have underestimated those two native cubs in the first place, really.

People's wisdom is not as high as his, but the force value is stronger than him!

As a modern person, after crossing a game, he didn't have half a golden finger, and he was bullied by ordinary cats and dogs.

It's miserable!

It was he who embarrassed his compatriots, and it is estimated that among all the traversers, he is the worst.

There are two litters of rat cubs to take care of at home, plus Mu Kui delivered the livestock raised by the family for the first time, and the freshness has not passed, so she didn't go to the square to play anymore, and she also let Mu Zhao go to catch fish, and basically carried it home after catching it.

In the end, those fish were counted, and they even earned their family another day's rations.

It's better than nothing, Hexian can eat as you go, and earn a day's rations for nothing, which is not bad.

As usual, Mo and Victoria made fish soup, steamed eggs with crab roe and steamed eggs with crab paste, and also made some fish skin jelly and tree flour cold cake for them, and mixed the seasoning for them to eat slowly.

In order to take care of the two litters of newborn rats, the nearest rat milk is given priority to the rats.

The three little ones can only continue to increase supplementary food.

And I don't know if it's an illusion, when eating, Mu Kui seems to see the little lion teeth.

To confirm this situation.

After the meal, Mu Kui opened the mouths of the three little ones one by one.

Sure enough, just as she expected, all three cubs began to teeth.

The lion cub has a few or two teeth, and Ink and Victoria are only a small tip, but there is no doubt that they are already moving towards being able to eat normal food.

"It's good, keep up the good work."

Mu Kui rubbed the three cubs one by one to show encouragement.

"When you grow a few more teeth, I will give you a small portion of what my brother and I eat in the future."

Hearing this, the three little ones all had bright eyes, obviously looking forward to this day for a long time.

——

Because I have to worry about the two litters of rat cubs in the family, especially the one that comes out of the difficult birth.

At night, Mu Kui and Ah Di didn't sleep well.

The two were on duty in shifts, one for the first half of the night and the other for the second half of the night, so they didn't let there be fewer people in the rat cub's nest.

However, even so, there were still two gutted rat cubs that did not hold on, and died in the middle of the night.

Victoria, who has always liked to eat fresh and tender rat cubs, didn't squeak this time, watching Mu Kui throw the dead rat cubs into the dung pit with a sad face, and secretly despised this little witch sacrifice for the overflow of kindness, and would actually hurt for two mouse cubs who were born less than a day ago.

As everyone knows, she has actually subconsciously not wanted to eat the mouse cubs that she saw born.

Just like Mu Kui threw away the dead mouse cubs before, Victoria didn't make a fuss.

The next day, he repeatedly instructed the three little ones in the family to be obedient, let the little lion take care of them a little more, and regularly feed the mouse cubs.

Mu Kui worriedly took the food jar and the condensed wooden box with the expansion sacrificial pattern, pulled the trailer, and followed the collection team out to collect.

It's only been ten days, and the forest has changed again.

Thorny trees can be found everywhere, but the leaves of other vegetation have also changed.

Either they become small and numerous, densely packed like a canopy.

Either the leaves are thickened and the water storage increases.

There are many changes, not just two.

In short, it is more adapted to the environment of the dry season.

Plum trees are no longer flooded and grow underwater as they are in the rainy season, and you have to dive to pick them.

Between the shade of the tall trees that grew, the half-man-tall shrubs, covered with fist-sized red fruits, even reflected in the fine sunlight cast into the dense forest, with dazzling brilliance.

There is no pit in the plum fruit, and the whole fruit is full of pulp, and the propagation method is also cuttings or split roots.

Plum fruits that have not been refined will not make people unlucky and do not have a buff effect, they are just ordinary fruits.

The red fruit, the size of a fist, the plum flavor, sweet and sour, is very popular with females.

This mountain was once named Mt. Plum Fruit by Aku, and many plum trees grew on the mountain.

Seeing that the first batch of plum fruits in the dry season had been produced, the females were very happy, and they swarmed up and picked them quickly.

They had a pleasant conversation with each other, saying that they wanted to make dried plums into dried fruits or jam, and that they wanted to make cold drinks.

But Mu Kui is thinking differently from everyone else at the moment.

What she thought was that she was looking forward to the plum fruits in this dry season.

On Qingyue's side, it's time to make an end.
