It's already July, and it's the hottest time of the year.
It's harvest time for sweet potatoes and corn, and the villagers are busy again.
Just then, the female dogs began to give birth one after another.
Bai Yajing has been very busy lately, either treating patients, delivering puppies, and going to work...
He was practically ready to split himself in two and use him.
Liu Meiling also helped her a lot, always by her side assisting her.
Now, only the three of them live in the educated youth settlement. All three are good-natured people, and they get along well without any conflicts. They help each other get by, and it couldn't be more comfortable.
Moreover, to protect Liu Meiling's reputation, the village chief added a gate to the front and back yards, so that Liu Meiling only needed to lock the gate at night.
Even though it's been very hot lately, Big White has stayed home.
It also knows that its children are being born one after another.
Bai Yajing watched as the wolf looked at its puppies with disdain, and couldn't help but feel a vein throbbing on her forehead.
"Bai Bai, you have a bit of fatherly love, but not much..."
If you say it doesn't love its own children, then why does it endure the heat and stay in the village?
But when it comes to how much it loves children, it also seems to dislike them...
Okay, on second thought it makes sense. It's the wolf king, and the cubs born to its wolf queens deep in the mountains are indeed better than the mixed-breed wolf puppies from the village...
This is incomparable.
Fortunately, it would occasionally go to the mountains to catch pheasants and rabbits. After Bai Yajing finished cooking, it would bite her trouser leg and lead her to the home of the little female dog that had given birth to wolf puppies.
The villagers would tease them every time they saw this.
Bai Yajing, being thick-skinned, didn't care at all and even managed to amuse herself.
Moreover, she has already picked out three wolfhound puppies for the family.
Grandpa and Uncle chose a dark brown one, but Grandpa and Grandma still preferred the white wolfhound puppy that looked very much like Big White.
Grandpa Xiao chose a pure black one.
The three puppies are still nursing, all round and chubby, and incredibly cute. Grandpa Bai and his maternal grandparents visit them from time to time, bringing the mother dog soup to help her recover and raise the puppies strong and healthy.
But Baymax's fatherly love eventually wore off as the weather got hotter and hotter.
It went back to the mountains, only occasionally bringing over pheasants or rabbits before leaving.
...
Before they knew it, half a year had passed since Xiao Che left.
They were all prepared for the fact that no news came back during this period.
However, I'm still worried.
After a busy day, I returned to the courtyard exhausted, my back and legs aching.
Now that her grandparents are getting old, she doesn't want them to do hard work in the fields anymore. The village has other arrangements for the elderly, so starting this year, her grandparents also went to the threshing ground to do lighter work.
So her maternal grandparents came back earlier than her.
Seeing her so exhausted makes my heart ache.
"My dear, quickly wash your hands and face, let's eat first. Grandma has made you some nourishing soup."
Grandpa also rushed off to fetch her water.
"My dear, we have plenty of food at home, don't push yourself so hard."
Bai Yajing washed her hands and face, finally feeling much more relaxed.
"Hey, it's nothing, it's just been tiring lately. The corn leaves are so tight, you have to keep yourself covered in sweat, that's why I feel so exhausted. I'll be fine once the harvest is over."
The family had just finished eating when they heard a commotion outside, so the three of them immediately went out to check.
