Xiaohua spent three days at home with Dandan and Qingqing before wanting to go back.

Lu Fangfang could also tell that it was about to leave.

Little Flower is the Queen of the Snow Mountain, and she didn't even think of stopping her.

That evening, she found a cloth bag and put all the goose eggs that she had recently collected into it.

"Xiaohua, you've eaten quite a few eggs at home. Take these to Da Pang."

"Meow~"

Lu Fangfang hugged Xiaohua's big head and kissed it on the forehead.

She picked up the cloth bag full of goose eggs, let Xiaohua bite the cloth rope, and then waved her hand.

Xiao Hua glanced at Lu Fangfang, then at Dandan and Qingqing, and finally turned and ran towards the snow-capped mountains in the north.

"Sister~"

"Sister~"

Qingqing, with her short legs, chased after it.

Lu Fangfang quickened her pace, picked up her daughter, and said, "Alright, Xiaohua is going to find Da Pang now. We'll go see him again in a few months."

"Mom, can my sister stay?"

Qingqing's voice was trembling with tears welling up in her eyes.

"Didn't Mom tell you that your sister is very powerful? She is the king of the snow mountain and has to stay on the snow mountain. She can't play with Qingqing all the time."

Lu Fangfang took out a handkerchief and wiped away her daughter's tears.

Seeing Qingqing's appearance, she felt a pang of sadness.

To comfort the two children, she carried Qingqing and held Dandan's hand, and went to the pasture in front of the farm.

"Awoo~"

At this moment, the little yellow dog was standing in front of the cave entrance, barking incessantly towards the north, as if offering small flowers.

Seeing this scene made Lu Fangfang feel even worse.

She let go of her daughter and reached out to hug the little Tibetan fox.

"Little yellow dog, bring your puppies out so I can take another look."

"Awoo~"

The little Tibetan fox immediately turned around and scurried into the hole.

In no time at all, it brought out two Tibetan fox cubs.

After not seeing him for a few days, the little Tibetan fox cub had grown quite a bit and had already opened his eyes.

Looking at Lu Fangfang, Dandan, and Qingqing, the two little ones weren't afraid at all; instead, they seemed quite affectionate towards each other.

Lu Fangfang stroked her chin and thought for a moment, guessing that it might be because the little yellow dog smelled of home.

"Mom, they're so fat!"

Qingqing and Dandan plopped down next to the Tibetan fox cub, their mood improving somewhat.

Remembering their mother's words, neither of them reached out to touch it; they just stared at it intently.

"When you two were born, you were just like them, chubby and plump."

Lu Fangfang examined the two Tibetan fox cubs closely, but couldn't tell whether they were male or female.

However, it's clear that the two Tibetan fox cubs are being well taken care of by the little yellow dog and Yicuo Mao.

bass!

On the distant grassland, a tuft of fur, carrying two pikas in its mouth, quickly ran back.

Upon reaching them, it released the pika from its mouth, then immediately picked up the child and carried it back to the burrow.

It ran out of the hole again and started barking at the little yellow dog.

"Awoo~"

"Awoo~"

The little yellow dog ignored him, and started chewing on the pika his wife had hunted.

It had been guarding its cubs at the entrance of the cave for half a day, and it was now hungry.

Seeing this, Lu Fangfang touched her nose, feeling a little embarrassed, as if she were acting like a mother-in-law.

"Egg, Qingqing, it's getting late, let's go back."

Goodbye, little yellow dog.

"Goodbye, tuft of hair."

The two children waved to the arguing Tibetan foxes, then followed their mother with their short legs.

...

Summer in Qilian passes quickly.

As soon as autumn arrived, Lu Fangfang organized the people at the breeding farm to start purchasing grass seeds from each production brigade.

Now that the farm is larger, there isn't enough grass seed, so harvesting more will save on costs.

As for bone meal, in addition to the farms purchasing it themselves, the group also helped contact the city's slaughterhouse, which regularly delivers bones to the farms.

In October, the regiment began hauling winter supplies from the city, truckload after truckload.

This year is a bit special; quail eggs from the farms in the group are being transported to the city in truckloads, in exchange for piles of bran and coarse grains.

This year's rapeseed harvest is also bountiful. The rapeseed cake left over from pressing oil in the group was all sent to the breeding farm.

Last month, after Lu Fangfang harvested the crops from Sister Shufen's field, she specially loaded half of them and had the truck carrying quail eggs help transport them to the division.

She didn't want the other half either, and sent it all to the group.

In addition, the hawthorns along the riverbank are ripe, but there aren't many.

She tried a few, and they were extremely sour.

These were hawthorns that Sister Shufen brought from her hometown. She specially packed some and had them delivered to Sister Shufen so that she could also try them.

She made some candied hawthorns for Dandan and Qingqing.

Of course, the little wild donkey also got its share.

This guy finally settled down a bit after the summer.

However, the Tibetan wild mule she was hoping for never appeared, which disappointed her greatly.

...

After winter set in, Lu Fangfang began preparing things to take back to her hometown for the Chinese New Year.

She hadn't been back for many years, so she wanted to bring more things with her this time.

Besides, Xiuxiu's situation also troubled her. When she returned to her hometown, she didn't know how to tell her parents.

After thinking for a while, she got tired of thinking and decided to let Xiuxiu figure out the truth herself.

In early December, Lu Fangfang prepared the things to take back to her hometown and also took on the task of publishing a children's book with a publishing house in the provincial capital.
