Needless to say, this was just to scare them and prevent them from seeing the tiger cubs.
"Fine, we won't watch, okay?" Upon seeing this, Chen Weiguo and the others immediately raised their hands and slowly backed away.
Once they retreated to a certain distance, Hua Hua dropped her guard and became lazy and casual again.
"You think you're so great, huh?" Sheng Xiping said, both amused and exasperated. He squatted down and temporarily handed the two children back to Huahua.
Hua Hua saw this and immediately lay down on the ground. The two hungry tiger cubs, acting on instinct, whimpered and nuzzled against Hua Hua's belly, and soon successfully nursed.
While the two tiger cubs were nursing, Sheng Xiping quickly took out some dry rations and ate a quick bite.
After Hua Hua fed the two tiger cubs, Sheng Xiping also finished eating. Just then, Chen Weiguo and the others got the bear onto the makeshift sled.
"Let's go home." Sheng Xiping picked up the two tiger cubs, with Huahua following behind him.
As for the six dogs, they darted off immediately upon hearing the word "home." They weren't afraid of Hua Hua, but they also didn't want to go with her.
Chen Weiguo and the others, struggling to drag the bear, returned to the forest farm with a full harvest.
The return journey was naturally not as fast as the way there; by the time they left the woods, it was almost five o'clock.
"Weiguo, you go back to the forest farm first and tell my parents. Don't worry, I'll be home later."
Sheng Xiping looked at the two tiger cubs in his arms, then at Huahua, and suddenly said.
It's not even dark outside yet, and he's leading a big tiger and carrying two tiger cubs, just swaggering into the forest. Isn't that a bit inappropriate?
Even though everyone in the forest farm knows that the Sheng family is raising a tiger, they can't just ignore everything.
So Sheng Xiping thought that he might as well go home later and talk to him when it got dark.
Chen Weiguo and the others understood Sheng Xiping's meaning, so they said nothing and dragged the bear into the forest.
Sheng Xiping, on the other hand, accompanied Hua Hua and her two children to find a place to rest at the edge of the woods.
Just then, Hua Hua fed the two tiger cubs milk again.
I must say, these two little guys have quite a appetite; they kept munching away and wouldn't let go.
As soon as Chen Weiguo and his group dragged the bear into the forest, they were surrounded by a large crowd.
When everyone saw the giant bear, they were all amazed. Some even asked if the bear meat was for sale, saying they wanted to buy some if it was.
At this time of year, bears are not too fat. A bear weighing five or six hundred pounds, after removing its head, internal organs, paws, and bones, would probably only yield about three hundred pounds of meat.
Here, we need to leave a few days' worth of food for Hua Hua, a portion for the Sheng family's dog, and Sheng Xiping, being the leader, should also get an extra portion for the gun he fired.
What's left is divided among everyone. So, each family doesn't get much.
Since last winter, everyone has been busy with winter production. This spring, they came down from the mountain late and had very few opportunities to go hunting.
It's been a long time since anyone has tasted meat. This bear meat is so fatty, it can be rendered into oil, it's definitely a good thing, who would be willing to sell it?
So Chen Weiguo and the others refused outright, saying that they wouldn't sell the bear; they would keep it for their own consumption.
Then, amidst everyone's sighs and lamentations, several people dragged the bear to the Sheng family's house.
The dogs came back first, and when the Sheng family saw that their bellies were swollen, they knew that they had encountered prey in the mountains, so they weren't in a hurry.
When Chen Weiguo and the others dragged the bear inside, they didn't see Sheng Xiping. Zhang Shuzhen and Sheng Liancheng then asked him in surprise.
"Uncle, Aunt, Xiping will be back a little later. He said he'll wait until it gets dark, after everyone has gone home for dinner."
Wang Jianshe stood close to Sheng Liancheng and explained in a low voice.
"We found Huahua and two tiger cubs. Xiping said it's not safe to just swagger into the forest, so we'll be a little late."
Upon hearing this, Sheng Liancheng understood. "Alright, let's eat first, and leave some rice in the pot for the boss later."
