Halfway through the first month, the smell of the New Year in the village has also faded a lot.

This year, the beginning of spring is particularly early, so the weather is warm early, although the dragon has not yet raised its head, but the snow on the mountain has melted.

The spring grass at the foot of the mountain and on the roadside has already begun to take shape, and it is full of greenery.

After the second dragon raised its head in early February, the snow was almost invisible, and although the weather was still a little cold, the spring mood was already very obvious.

The young hunters in the village have gathered into a team, and after setting off firecrackers at the foot of the mountain, they are ready to go into the mountain to search for prey.

In fact, there is a saying about entering the mountain for the first time.

The hunters in the village do not want to go into the mountains to feed as soon as the snow melts.

The food prepared by the hunters before the heavy snow closed the mountain is very sufficient, and it can basically provide an old snack for a family until April and May.

And the hunters really start to go up the mountain to seek food in April.

In this month, everything has long been revived, and the hibernating beasts have basically filled their stomachs, and they are no longer as hungry and red-eyed as they were when they first came out of the cave, and they eat whatever they see.

The Orioners often say: "No matter how fierce it is, it can't be the March Beast, and no matter how instigated it is, it's not a nonsense."

The reason why I want to enter the mountain once in early February is not to hunt animals, but to say that it is more accurate to look for animals.

Wild beasts don't know how to plan ahead like humans.

In order to survive the winter, prepare enough food early to adapt to all changes.

Every year, there are some silly beasts in the mountains, who don't know how to reserve prey, and when they are so hungry, why don't they care about the heavy snow covering the mountains.

No matter how heavy the snow is, no matter how cold the day is, they will come out to forage for food, and of course, the result is only to freeze to death.

Therefore, the villagers will take advantage of the fact that the snow has just melted and the animals have not yet come out of the hole to forage for food, and go to the mountains to "pick up leaks".

That is, to pick up some beasts that have frozen to death.

However, there are still some dangers, after all, some animals will also wake up at this time and come out to forage.

Therefore, the first time I entered the mountain after the year, also called "opening the mountain", most of them were young and strong hunters.

Ye Luo originally wanted to go into the mountain with them.

After his parents left, Ye Luo had to take on the responsibility of supporting his family.

Early in the morning, Ye Luo was just about to go out, but he was stopped by Zizi, who looked shy.

Ye Luo was about to ask Zizi what was wrong, when he saw Zizi lowering her head, her little face blushing and said, "Brother Luo, I..."

When Ye Luo saw Zizi like this, he thought that Zizi was unwell.

He hurriedly stepped forward and touched Zizi's forehead to make sure that there was no fever, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's wrong?

Zizi was even more ashamed when she saw Ye Luo's actions, and she didn't know how to say it.

The more anxious he was, the more he didn't know how to say it, his little face immediately turned red with anxiety, and finally seeing Ye Luo's worried face, he quickly calmed down and lowered his head and said:

"My mother is no more, I don't know who to ask, I was supposed to have a menstrual affair three days ago, but there has been no movement so far, I want you to invite Mrs. Zhang to see if there is something wrong with my body. ”

Before he finished speaking, Zizi's already shy little face was about to stick to the ground.

Ye Luo almost jumped up with joy after hearing this.

After all, Ye Luo is a modern person, and he still knows the basic physiological knowledge.

Where is Zizi's body that has a problem and does not come to menstruation, eight or nine is not far from ten, she is already pregnant.

Ye Luo happily immediately picked up Zizi and spun around, and just after the turn, he suddenly thought of something and quickly put down Zizi, and carefully cared for her to sit down and rest.

Zizi was even more confused when she saw Ye Luo's appearance, and she didn't know what kind of wind Ye Luo suddenly smoked.

Ye Luo saw Zizi looking at him with a confused expression, and also noticed his gaffe, so he quickly coughed and squatted beside Zizi.

And tried all the incomplete physiological knowledge he could think of to explain to Zizi that she was not sick, maybe she was pregnant.

Although Zizi couldn't fully understand what Ye Luo was saying, she still knew from a few words that she might be pregnant.

Zizi watched Ye Luo dance like a child, incoherently, and immediately felt hot in her heart, and thought that since Ye Luo's parents died, Ye Luo had never been so sincerely happy, and immediately her own tears flowed out.

Ye Luo immediately cried when he saw Zizi hearing his words, and thought that he had said something wrong, so he immediately asked cautiously like a child who had made a mistake:

"Didn't I say something wrong? Don't cry, I don't know why I'm so scared. ”

Zizi saw Ye Luo like a child who made a mistake, although she didn't know what mistakes she had made, and she was afraid of annoying herself and carefully admitting her mistakes, her heart immediately became sour, and her tears flowed even more.

Zizi saw Ye Luo's more anxious appearance, so she quickly wiped away her tears with a smile, gently hugged Ye Luo and said softly:

"I'm not sad, you haven't done anything wrong, I'm just happy, what do you think my father would be happy if she knew that we had a child?"

When Ye Luo heard Zizi's words, he immediately quieted down and stretched out his hands to hug Zizi tightly, and put his head on Zizi's shoulders and rubbed Zizi's head.

Then he said with a smile: "Dad is not easy to say, my mother must be jumping outside to see people and say, I can't wait for the whole village to know, hahaha..."

Ye Luo smiled very happily, really happy.

Before the words fell, both of them were in tears and could only wipe them secretly.

After the two of them calmed down, Ye Luo placed Zizi and hurried out.

It didn't take a big deal, so I invited Mrs. Zhang over.

Although Ye Luo is a modern person, he has only heard a little about physiology, but he really understands fertility.

So I hurriedly invited Mrs. Zhang over, and wanted to find Mrs. Zhang to confirm whether Zizi was really pregnant, and if so, how to take care of it in the future.

Zhang Po can be regarded as growing up watching Ye Luo.

She still vividly remembers the scene when a couple first came to the village more than ten years ago.

Although the husband and wife are not young, they don't know how to support their children.

The children they brought with them cried for three days.

The husband and wife were in a hurry and didn't know how to start, the woman's eyes couldn't be more red from crying, and the man ran half the village without finding a mouthful of milk for his child to eat.

Mrs. Zhang couldn't bear it, and when she came to the young couple's house, the child was so hungry that she could barely cry.

As soon as I entered the house, I saw that the young woman's eyes were red and her face was tired, and it was clear that she had not closed her eyes for several days.

The man squatted outside the door, smoking a cigarette one by one.

Po Zhang glanced at the water bowl on the table, and there was half a bowl of rice next to it, and said, "Seeing that your body is not weak, how can you have no milk to eat?"

When the young woman saw the arrival of Po Zhang, as if she had seen a savior, she immediately replied with tears in her eyes:

"When I was younger, I had some injuries, but somehow they were gone. ”

"The child is hungry, just feed some water can still top the matter, now the water can't be fed, a feed will vomit, a feed will vomit, before I want to feed some rice, but always stuck with the child..."

Before she could finish speaking, the woman was already crying and could not speak, and it was evident that she had suffered no less than the child in the past few days when she had not been able to eat.

Zhang Po looked at the woman, her heart was sour, and she quickly said softly:

"There's no old man left at home?"

"When I was young, every family had nothing to eat, and women who had just given birth were hungry without milk or water. ”

"But the children are still fed, the old people who are a little older know how to raise children, how do you..."

Halfway through the words, Mrs. Zhang saw that there were indeed only two husbands and wives in the family, and she instantly understood that it was estimated that she was also a fatherless and motherless family, so she didn't say more.

When the young woman heard Mrs. Zhang's words, her originally dark eyes immediately regained their brilliance, as if she had found a life-saving straw, and hurriedly begged:

"Mother-in-law, you save my child, as long as you save the child, let us do anything. ”

After speaking, he yelled at the door:

"Useless things, don't roll in yet, beg mother-in-law together. ”

After that, he said to Zhang Po with red eyes:

"Mother-in-law, my man has no other skills, but he has all the strength, you save our child, I will let him use you as a cow and a horse, go up the mountain to hunt beasts or something casually. ”

Zhang Po was even more distressed when she saw the young woman's appearance.

I was soft-hearted, but I didn't see outsiders in the village, and no one was willing to help them, for fear of getting into trouble.

But I couldn't bear the child crying, so I still came here.

After listening to the woman's words, Zhang Po's eyes turned red, and she said softly:

"Mother-in-law doesn't need you to repay, she just feels sorry for the child. ”

"Do you have millet and sweet potatoes at home?"
