In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed, and the cucumber and tomato seedlings in the riverside vegetable garden have all borne fruit.
Egg and Green Rice aren't eating properly anymore; they're just eating cucumbers and tomatoes all day.
The little wild donkey would also hang around the two children all day, begging for cucumbers and tomatoes.
That evening, the two children sat on the doorstep of their house, sharing freshly picked cucumbers and tomatoes with the little wild donkey.
"One for my brother, one for me, and one for the donkey."
Qingqing picked up a bright red tomato and placed it in front of her brother.
Then, she picked up another one and placed it in front of her.
She looked up at the little wild donkey, picked out a large one, and placed it in front of it.
"One for brother, one for me, brother..."
"Oh...ah..."
When the little wild donkey saw that it hadn't received any, it immediately brayed in dissatisfaction.
"Oh, I forgot about the donkey. Give the donkey a big cucumber."
Qingqing picked out the largest cucumber and placed it in front of the little wild donkey.
The little wild donkey looked on, and then grinned with satisfaction.
In the courtyard, Lu Fangfang was cooking.
Watching this scene, she couldn't stop laughing; the two children were having a great time playing with the little wild donkey.
After the little ones finished dividing the food, they immediately started eating.
The little wild donkey ate the fastest, chewing voraciously before moving closer to the two children.
"Donkey, don't snatch it! This is green, you can't eat it."
Qingqing protected her tomatoes, not letting the little wild donkey eat them.
At the courtyard gate, Zhuang Mingcheng happened to return. Seeing this scene, he walked over, picked up his daughter, and then slapped the little wild donkey.
"Dad, Dad, you can't hit the donkey."
"Oh...ah..."
The little wild donkey looked at Zhuang Mingcheng with dissatisfaction.
"Qingqing, Donkey is bullying the horses in the group. Do you think we should beat it?"
As Zhuang Mingcheng spoke, he glared at the little wild donkey again.
The braying of the little wild donkey immediately subsided.
It wagged its little tail, turned around, and walked to the south side of the yard, where it lay down on the haystack.
“You stubborn little donkey, if you dare to cause trouble on the training ground again, I’ll have Comrade Sun from the regiment slap you so you can never bully other mares again.”
"Oh...ah..."
The little wild donkey shuddered, then quickly tucked its tail between its legs and hid in a corner.
Lu Fangfang, standing nearby, was taken aback. Only then did she realize that it was the one who had bullied her.
Turning her head, she looked at the little wild donkey in surprise. No wonder it couldn't bring back the mother wild donkey; it had its eye on the mare in the troupe.
This...
"Mingcheng, when did this happen? Did one of the horses in the troupe give birth to a mule?"
"Probably not..."
“The calf of a wild donkey is different from a regular domestic donkey, so it probably can’t give birth.”
Zhuang Mingcheng is also having a headache.
If this actually happens, the community won't be able to register it.
What a mess it is that a perfectly good warhorse gave birth to a mule!
"The little stubborn donkey is a Tibetan wild donkey. If it gives birth to a mule, it will be called a Tibetan wild mule."
Lu Fangfang thought about it and felt like laughing.
The young wild ass is so big and fast, its offspring might even become a new breed of Tibetan wild mule.
Hmm, she'll have to take a good look at it then.
...
A month later, the mares in the troupe did not give birth to mules, but the little yellow dog's wife gave birth to a foal from a tuft of hair.
Egg and Green were the first to notice the situation.
The two of them took their mother's hand and went to the pasture in front of the farm.
"Little yellow dog, has your wife given birth?"
"Awoo~"
"Awoo~"
The little yellow dog ran around happily, and finally looked up at Lu Fangfang.
Being a first-time father, he didn't know how to express his excitement.
"Little yellow dog, you'd better take good care of your wife and children from now on."
Lu Fangfang smiled and patted the little yellow dog's head.
She mounted her little wild donkey, went home, caught a snow chicken, and then returned to the pasture.
Before the little yellow dog could even bark, a tuft of fur emerged from the hole and began to nibble on the snow chicken.
After it had eaten its fill, Lu Fangfang asked curiously, "One tuft of fur, how many pups did you have?"
"Awoo~"
A tuft of hair called out to her and then disappeared back into the cave.
Lu Fangfang could only look at Dan'er and Qingqing.
These two kids spend all day wandering around the meadow, and now they know better than she does.
"I only saw a little puppy, so tiny."
"Qingqing only saw one; the others didn't come out."
Lu Fangfang stroked the heads of the two children, not in a hurry.
When the Tibetan fox cubs get a little older, they will come out on their own.
...
evening.
After finishing her work at the farm, Lu Fangfang took Dandan and Qingqing to peek at the entrance of the cave outside.
The two children, each holding half a cucumber, sat down directly in front of the cave entrance.
Soon, the little yellow dog crawled out of the hole.
"Awoo~"
It nudged Egg and Green, then suddenly turned its head to look northeast.
"Mommy, Mommy, my sister is here, my sister is here."
Qingqing excitedly got up.
It took its short legs and ran towards the river.
"Little Flower is back?"
Lu Fangfang was overjoyed.
"Hmph, it's been more than two months since I last saw you, and you finally know to come back."
Lu Fangfang muttered to herself, but still quickly walked over.
When it reached the riverbank, it saw Little Flower dragging a little ibex along, walking this way.
"Meow~"
Upon seeing Lu Fangfang, Xiaohua released her mouth and exclaimed excitedly.
"How many days has it been? You've probably forgotten about this family."
