When Yong returned, he was indeed shocked, especially after learning that his partner was the child he had given birth to; he was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat.
"Qing, next time when you're about to give birth, I will definitely not go hunting. Giving birth alone in a cave is too risky. Next time, I will accompany you no matter what."
Qing silently complained in her heart. Actually, there was no need to complain. It would be easier to make arrangements if she was alone in the cave. With someone else, considering the backward conditions, it felt like having another person would only be a hindrance.
"Yong, stop talking about that. Come over here and see your son. Do you want to hold him?"
Quickly change the subject so he doesn't keep thinking about having another baby.
Yong's attention was indeed diverted. Looking at his son sleeping soundly on the kang (a heated brick bed), he became extremely excited.
Even now, the women in the tribe no longer point fingers at each other; in fact, they haven't since their partners became pregnant.
Looking at the tiny little one, I felt a pang of sadness in my heart, and my eyes involuntarily welled up with tears. I blinked to hold back the tears that were about to spill.
"Qing, I will listen to you in everything from now on."
Yong felt that his partner was so capable that he should listen to her more in the future. That way, if Qing was happy and gave him two more daughters, that would be great!
Qing felt that Yong's spineless appearance was unbearable to look at. Now he listens to her, saying that everything is under her control. What's the difference from before?
When Qing was in her first world, she was also a mother, but there were too many servants at that time, so she didn't have to take care of the children herself and didn't have much experience in raising children.
Now we have to take care of everything ourselves, from eating and drinking to toileting. As new parents, we were initially overwhelmed and confused.
Fortunately, the child is quite well-behaved and doesn't cry no matter how much fuss he does.
Ten days to half a month later, the two of them became very skilled, especially Yong, who can now take care of the child and cook.
Of course, all he made was meat broth, and she secretly ate the things in the space that were good for her health.
The couple racked their brains trying to come up with a name for their child.
In the end, I still really hope that my son will be very brave in the future. Since I am already named Yong (Brave), then my son can be named Meng (Fierce).
Qing herself couldn't come up with a good name, but since the child's father had already thought of one, then so be it, since it doesn't sound bad anyway.
By the time the baby was a month old, her weight had skyrocketed to ten pounds.
She has a fair and chubby appearance, and her features resemble Yong's. She has fair skin now, but if she doesn't have good skin, she might become very dark-skinned when she grows up, probably from sun exposure.
After the postpartum period, you can no longer be lazy.
Qing was about to start gathering, but the two of them were preparing to send their son to the tribe to be raised.
The environment inside scared them both away.
All the children were in a cave, but the old woman taking care of them was too old and her eyesight was failing, so she couldn't see very clearly.
Regardless of whether the children had soiled themselves or not, if we saw it, we would clean them up; if we didn't see it, they would scratch it with their hands.
In this kind of environment, how could anyone bear to leave their child there to be raised? After all, the child is their own flesh and blood, and they shouldn't be treated like this.
Finally, Qing decided to take her child to collect the herbs herself. She wove dried leaves into a carrying strap, tied it to her back, and took her son with her to collect the herbs.
Yong couldn't bear to leave his partner alone, so he took his son to the forest to gather resources. He had to separate from his previous partners and go with his partner and son.
Although they don't hunt as many prey as before, it's still more than enough for the family of three.
The other women in the tribe didn't understand why Qing was taking her child to gather resources.
Qing doesn't need their understanding; as long as she feels at peace with herself, that's enough.
Children raised in that kind of environment who don't get sick are considered lucky.
No wonder so many babies die young. In that kind of environment, bacteria would easily grow. The children who survive are just lucky.
The family of three was happy every day, going to the forest to gather resources, and they lived a pretty good life.
Yong simply couldn't understand why his partner liked to pick wild herbs, but since his partner liked it, he didn't say anything.
It was a fairly obedient mate, and there weren't many prey to hunt in the spring.
This is because there is a rule in the tribe that they cannot hunt too many prey so that they can reproduce more.
There will be a steady stream of prey from now on, so there's no need to worry about killing them to extinction. It just goes to show that everyone has that kind of vision, and it's a long-standing tradition.
In the last month of spring, Qing and Yong returned from hunting in the forest with their children and saw from afar that the tribal square was particularly lively.
As I walked a little closer, I immediately spotted a particularly conspicuous person in the crowd.
The time-traveling heroine has arrived.
As for why Qing was so certain, it's because her clothing was exactly the same as that of modern people.
Amidst the crowds of people wrapped in animal skins, a little girl dressed in a shirt, jeans, and casual shoes stood out remarkably.
If a person's appearance is rated out of ten, then this little girl would probably be rated out of seven.
She is indeed quite pretty; the young girl is fair-skinned and clean-cut. No wonder everyone is gathered around her.
At a glance, the time-traveling heroine stood out from the crowd. Since the tribe had always been predominantly male, the addition of a woman made everyone quite happy, especially the warriors.
After all, they have another chance to be chosen, but this female lead is not so easy to grasp.
Qing glanced at Yong's expression, but to her surprise, he only looked up at him once before looking down at his son, without paying any attention to the transmigrated female lead.
Qing nodded in satisfaction. Sure enough, the men in the tribe wouldn't even glance at other women after they had a partner. He hadn't lied to her at all.
Now she was in the mood to go forward and watch the excitement, but she didn't try to stand out too much.
After all, a fair-skinned person standing out in a sea of dark people is quite conspicuous.
So she stood at the very back, quietly listening to what the clan chief and elders said to the transmigrated female protagonist.
After listening for a while, I roughly understood what the chieftain was asking the female protagonist: what her name was, where she came from, and why her clothes were so different.
Then came the female lead's answer. Her name was Li Xue, and she came from a distant village called Earth. She said that her clothes were made by the people in that village on Earth.
