Chapter 351: Departure
A little wolf cub was lying under the mother wolf, with its head under its mother's belly, humming and sucking milk.
Ning Xiyue teased her second brother a few times: "Second brother, see, you are now the grandfather of two children, congratulations."
Ning Qingyuan was proud of this, and happily clasped his fists and said, "Auntie of two children, congratulations!"
The two siblings smiled at each other and continued to look into the cave.
The mother wolf got up, walked to a broken bowl not far away, and took a few bites. The food in the bowl was exactly the half roasted suckling pig that she had given to Xiao Hui at noon today.
Ning Xiyue understood instantly that there was a reason why Xiao Hui caught so many things every day.
You wouldn’t have thought that Xiao Hui is actually a wolf king who loves his wife so much that he brought back so many things just to nourish his wife’s body.
He is a good wolf king, he is simply the Big Gray Wolf from another time and space.
"Next time we have to give Xiao Hui more food. If he doesn't eat well, how can we have milk to feed the cub?"
"My sister is right."
After Xiao Hui in the cave brought the baby back to the nest, he used his claws to dig at the other baby, and then looked at Ning Xiyue and Ning Qingyuan, brother and sister, as if inviting them to come in and touch the babies.
She also ran over and bit Ning Xiyue's trouser leg and pulled it. After letting go, she went to bite Ning Qingyuan's trouser leg, as if she was inviting him into her home.
Ning Qingyuan and Ning Xiyue waved their hands at the same time to refuse.
Xiao Hui grew up with them and is not afraid, but they have never had direct contact with the female wolves in the den, especially the female wolves that have given birth to wolf cubs, they all protect their cubs.
Ning Xiyue was afraid that if they went over to touch the wolf cub, the mother wolf would pounce on them and bite them.
She touched Xiao Hui's head:
"We're just going to take a look here. We're not going in. We're going back now. You can come back for dinner in the evening."
Xiao Hui let go of the trouser leg in his mouth.
Ning Qingyuan also touched Xiao Hui's head: "We have seen it, the cub is still young, don't bring him down for the time being, understand?"
He was really afraid that he would see two little wolf cubs crawling in the kitchen den in the next moment, which would make him helpless and not know what to do. He was afraid that if he grabbed the cubs too hard, he would kill them.
Little Gray understood what was said, let out a howl, returned to the cave, and lay down next to the cub.
"Okay, let's go, Xiao Hui, see you tonight."
Ning Xiyue helped to dig up the grass at the entrance of the cave to cover it up.
The two siblings walked down the mountain.
In the following days, Xiao Hui listened to them and did not take the cub away. He would come back every day at mealtime to eat and pack up the food to take away. Similarly, he would bring back some things every time he came back.
He is really a sensible little gray wolf.
Xiao Hui fed them, and they cooked and fed the food to Xiao Hui. This cycle of feeding each other lasted for two months.
During these two months, Xiao Hui loved to catch pheasants from Huohuo Mountain. Perhaps it was because the first pheasant he caught was stewed so deliciously that it left a deep impression on him. Five out of ten times after that, he caught pheasants.
This makes the animals in the mountains more vigilant, especially the pheasants in the mountains, which will fly away when they see it, making it more difficult to capture them.
In these two months, Xiao Hui's child has grown a lot like a blown-up ball and can run around now.
The cub that was brought down the mountain by Xiao Hui actually inherited Xiao Hui's intelligence and often followed Xiao Hui down the mountain to play.
Ning Xiyue and her siblings both gained ten pounds in the past two months, which made her realize that she couldn't eat anymore. She warned Xiao Hui in person not to bring anything back.
We need to lose weight and eat lighter food.
From then on, the two-month feeding finally ended.
Return to the kitchen to eat.
Ning Xiyue now gets up at six o'clock every morning, practices Tai Chi for an hour behind the kitchen, and then runs to the cafeteria to eat, in order to exercise her body, mainly to lose weight.
Seeing this, Chen Yechu also got up and started practicing.
What surprised Ning Xiyue was that Tang Xiaohu actually knew Wing Chun, and she fought with great power and sharp moves. The key was that she was very strong and was good at working, and she could always gain ten centimeters.
I heard that her family used to run a martial arts school, but because she was very strong and ate a lot, she was kicked out of the house and had to live on her own. There were no jobs in the city, so in order to have enough food to eat, she signed up to go to the countryside as an educated youth.
After hearing this, Ning Xiyue followed Tang Xiaohu to learn Wing Chun. Girls should learn more martial arts to protect themselves.
Tang Xiaohu likes being a teacher very much. Anyone who wants to learn can come to her and she will teach for free.
Then all the educated youth in the Youth League Institute were interested and learned a few tricks from her.
But many people just do it on a whim and practice a few moves, but then lose interest in the next few days and stop practicing.
Tang Xiaohu didn't care because she still had a few talented and willing-to-learn students left.
Ning Xiyue had a foundation in Tai Chi, so she quickly learned all the moves of Wing Chun, and performed them quite well. She had both strength and momentum, and she quickly integrated the strength into her moves.
This made Tang Xiaohu very proud. He patted Ning Xiyue on the shoulder and announced: "You are the most talented student I have ever seen. I declare you a successful apprentice. You are the first student I, Tang Xiaohu, have accepted."
Tang Xiaohu casually took out a piece of wood from his pocket and handed it over with a smile: "This is your certificate of graduation."
Ning Xiyue took the wooden board in her hand. The board was an old piece of unknown wood, but there was a crooked word "出" on it. It was a very fresh carving mark, and it was obvious that it was carved by Tang Xiaohu himself.
Ning Xiyue smiled knowingly, took the wooden board in her palm, and clasped her fists to express her gratitude, just like she did in TV dramas she had watched before: "Thank you, little teacher."
The interesting interaction between the two people made Chen Yechu and others laugh.
This also allowed Ning Xiyue to successfully become the tutor of Ning Qingyuan, Chen Yechu and Yu Zhiyu.
These three have learned some moves, but they are just fancy moves, only for show, and their moves are weak, and they can't scare anyone.
They are more familiar with Ning Xiyue, so when they are practicing later or if there is anything they don't do well, they will come to her for help.
Ning Xiyue also enjoyed it. These people gave her a lot of laughs during practice, which made her happy all day long.
After dinner today, the three of them were practicing each move in the kitchen at the back. After Ning Xiyue pointed out the shortcomings of each person, she walked out carrying a cross-body bag.
"Okay, just practice slowly on your own. I have to go to the last class of winemaking."
Chen Yechu stopped what he was doing when he heard this and said happily, "Then do you know how to measure the glutinous rice wine? When are you free to make some for me?"
"After today, I can be considered half-master of brewing wine. If you trust my skills, you can wait for me to come back. Bring me some rice and I will help you brew wine."
Ning Xiyue shared the news because she wanted to practice her skills, so she agreed as soon as Chen Yechu mentioned it.
"I believe it anyway. Go quickly. I'll wait for you to come back and help me brew wine."
Chen Yetu waved with a smile on his face, wondering how much rice to use and whether to brew more.
Ning Qingyuan kept practicing with his hands and talking.
"Little sister, you should go quickly. Our father has written to me several times, asking about it openly and secretly. He is looking forward to when his precious daughter can personally brew a glass of wine for him to drink. Tomorrow I can write to him to confirm his reply."
"Okay, I'll be there right away. Bye."
Ning Xiyue waved and trotted away.
When she arrived at Zhang Jianguo's home, Grandpa Zhang was already waiting for her there. Zhang Jianguo's grandmother and parents were also standing there, and none of them was busy with other things.
There were two small jars of wine on the stool next to them.
One is the wine brewed by Zhang Jianguo.
The other one is the homework Ning Xiyue handed in while learning how to make wine. Ning Xiyue doesn’t know whether it was successful or not, or what it tastes like, as she has not tasted it yet.
Mr. Zhang picked up the wine jar and patted it:.
"Today is the last class, and I don't have anything else to teach you. The sorghum wine you made in class is ready, so open it today to test the results and see if you have reached the level of a master."
"OK."
Ning Xiyue herself was also looking forward to tasting the sorghum wine she brewed, and wanted to see what the final result of her learning would be.
Zhang Jianguo excitedly ran over and fetched a stack of wine glasses: "Master, I'll pour it, I'll pour it."
Mr. Zhang didn't do anything, and put it on the jar: "Okay, you."
Six small wine glasses were placed on the table. Zhang Jianguo picked up the jar of wine brewed by Ning Xiyue, opened the lid under the gaze of several people, and used a wine ladle to pour half a cup of wine into each of the six glasses, just enough for one sip of wine.
"Try it, it smells good to me."
After Zhang Jianguo finished speaking, he took a sip of his glass of wine.
Ning Xiyue really wanted to know what the wine she brewed tasted like, so she took a few steps forward and eagerly picked up the wine glass to taste it.
