In the afternoon, Wen Xi went to pick up some dry firewood and came back, Dabao and Erbao helped Xiang Jiuling to make a fire, and followed Wen Xi to practice slingshots.

The two children are at the age of play, and learning the slingshot allows them to have fun and learn the skills of hunting, so why not do it?

Since he was rescued last time, Liu Shuangshuang has always followed Xiang Jiuling's family in addition to taking care of Liu Yao's family, and watched Dabao and Erbao learn to play slingshots, but he didn't expect his qualifications to be good, and he hit a turtledove on the same day.

When Mrs. Ji saw it, she was so happy that she immediately threw it into her mouth and chewed it, but she pretended to be indifferent on her face, and even a little disgusted.

"What kind of meat does such a bird have, you look at what the children have caught and come back, I will say that how can a female baby be useful to a male baby, it is really a useless thing!"

Originally, Liu Shuangshuang was still a little happy, but after so many years of swallowing her anger, she would not refute.

Only the weak Liu Yao protected Liu Shuangshuang, his eyes full of distress.

Mrs. Ji was a little aggrieved when she saw the mother and daughter now, and immediately threw the snatched turtledove to Liu Yao's family.

"You go and clean up this bird and bring it over, it's dirty!"

Liu Yao's was called by Mrs. Ji before she was confined, Liu Shuangshuang really couldn't stand it, and dragged the turtledove a little angrily.

Seeing that Liu Shuangshuang, who usually had low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, actually dared to shake his face in front of her, he immediately scolded, "You dead girl has hard wings, don't think that I won't dare to clean you up if you learn some skills!" ”

Seeing this, Liu Yao hurriedly stopped Mrs. Ji, who was about to do it, "Mother, Shuangshuang didn't mean that!" ”

"That's not what you mean? So what does she mean? I think it's your! ”

Old Mrs. Ji had nowhere to send fire in her belly, and it was all on Liu Yao's body in an instant.

Fortunately, Liu Dahu appeared in time, quickly pulled Liu Yao away, and comforted Mrs. Ji with a smile, "Mother, don't be angry, the mother and daughter definitely don't mean to be disrespectful to you." ”

Looking at Liu Yao's pitiful appearance, Mrs. Ji still took into account that she had just given birth to a son to the Liu family, and the anger in her heart disappeared a lot.

Liu Shuangshuang took the turtledove to the river to deal with it, it was wronged, I didn't expect her to be scolded when she hit the food, it was really ......

The more Liu Shuangshuang thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, thinking that he must find bigger and better prey to bring back.

The thought came out of control, and she turned and ran into a dense forest.

Xiang Jiuling asked Da Baolai to come to the river to carry a bucket of water back, and as soon as he arrived at the river, he saw Liu Shuang running towards the forest without looking back, thinking that something was wrong, so he dropped the bucket and followed.

Erbao was taking Sanni to catch insects on the ground, and he was having a lot of fun, when he suddenly heard Xiang Jiuling muttering.

"Dabao, why did you go to this fetch of water and haven't come back for so long?"

With the experience of losing the child last time, Wen Xi did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly went to the river to find someone, but the person was not found, and when he saw two villagers who came back from fetching water, he immediately asked about Dabao's whereabouts.

The two naturally knew Wen Xi, and after listening to him ask about it, they said, "I seem to have seen that baby running into the forest over there, and the bucket was thrown over there!" ”

Xiang Jiuling, who was chasing after her, also heard the conversation of several people, and quickly stopped Wen Xi, who wanted to enter the forest, "You take care of the children, I'll go find it!" ”

"No way!"

Wen Xi resolutely refused, there was a lot of danger in the forest, how could he let her in?

"Your injuries are not healed, don't worry, I can protect myself!"

Xiang Jiuling couldn't refuse, turned around and entered the forest.

Although Wen Xi was worried in his heart, he also knew that this was not the time to argue, so he could only hope that Xiang Jiuling would find Dabao soon and the two would return safely.

Entering the dense forest, Xiang Jiuling walked forward cautiously, it was already dark, and he couldn't see the situation clearly when he entered the forest, so he could only move forward in the dark.

After walking a few hundred meters, Xiang Jiuling suddenly heard a scream, as if it was Liu Shuangshuang's voice, and she hurriedly ran towards the source of the sound.

When he arrived in front of him, Xiang Jiuling saw the situation clearly, Dabao was holding Liu Shuangshuang, who was injured in his foot, and slowly retreated, and in front of the two of them there was a python with an adult arm several times thick.

The python was thick, but it was agile, spitting out the snake hyacinth and approaching the two children step by step.

Xiang Jiuling's eyes froze, and the hand holding the knife at his side unconsciously tightened, and slowly approached the two children.

Where have the two children seen such a big snake, they have long been scared of the six gods, and Liu Shuangshuang accidentally broke his foot and couldn't run at all, Dabao could only support her, and wanted to run but remembered what his father said, men must protect women.

When he was panicking, a familiar gentle voice suddenly came from behind him, "Don't be afraid! ”

Dabao turned around and saw that he had reached the two of them, and Xiang Jiuling had risen from the bottom of the valley to the sky in an instant.

"Mother!"

This voice is sincere and exciting.

Xiang Jiuling hurriedly made a silent gesture with the two children, turned his head to the other side, raised the knife in his hand and stabbed it at the python swimming over.

The snake was in pain, and it curled up in a ball, but fortunately, Xiang Jiuling's hand was closed fast enough, otherwise it would have been swept into it by the python.

Xiang Jiuling wanted to make up for it again, but the python flicked its tail and swooped into the grass on the side, and it was not easy to find it in the dark night, so Xiang Jiuling hurriedly grabbed the two children.

"Let's go!"

I don't know what beasts will appear in this forest yet, so it's better to leave quickly.

Seeing that Liu Shuangshuang was injured, Xiang Jiuling could only carry the little girl on her back and pull Dabao to and fro.

Dabao shook his warm hand, and then he came back to his senses, thinking of what he had just experienced, and there was a burst of fear in his heart, if it wasn't for the stepmother, he would be afraid today......

As long as fear arises, it will spread boundlessly, and Dabao unconsciously grabbed Xiang Jiuling's hand.

Xiang Jiuling naturally felt it, although Dabao has always behaved like a little adult on weekdays, but after all, she is still a child, her heart softened unconsciously, and the emotion of wanting to scold him for running around instantly dissipated.

Seeing that he could see the light, Liu Shuangshuang began to sob, "Auntie, it's all my fault, it's all my fault!" ”

Through getting along with Liu Shuangshuang in the past few days, Xiang Jiuling naturally knew that this girl was pitiful and stubborn, although she didn't know what happened specifically, but she could guess that thinking that she was injured now, I was afraid that she would have to be scolded when she went back, and she couldn't bear to blame her.

"Today's thing is also a lesson for you, you have to do everything you can in the future, now the world is already difficult, if you want to protect yourself, you must not only learn the ability, but also know the current affairs, understand?"

The little girl didn't seem to understand, and Dabao also pouted and scratched her head.
