Tang Baozhu's house was built in about a month, and she lived in the village head's old house for a month.
Now we don't need to extend it for another month.
As soon as the house was built, they moved in. Then they bought special meat and vegetables from other hunters and invited the women in the village to help them cook a big meal, which was also a way for them to integrate into the village.
For the past month or so, I've been taking my son and a dozen other kids outside every day, chatting with people and getting to know them. That's how I've integrated into the group.
So asking them to cook a meal is a piece of cake.
There was no need to buy meat at all, since the puppet was so skilled that it could easily hunt a lot of prey in the mountains.
But in order to fit in, I simply bought meat in the village. Fortunately, I only needed to do it once, and I won't need to do it again.
The furniture inside the house was also bought from those carpenters; everything that was available in the village was bought there.
This can be considered a way to integrate into Sweetwater Village, so none of the things in the space were taken out.
Even the mats and blankets the children slept on were all bought.
After settling down, Tang Baozhu rarely went out to gossip anymore. She felt that her son was too smart, and if she didn't teach him in advance, she would feel that it would be a waste of his talent.
The main concern is that if they are not properly taught, they may develop other bad habits.
Therefore, she deliberately rarely went out, and took out the most useful primers from the ancient world from her space, starting with the Three Character Classic, to enlighten him little by little.
As for those children, he would also call them puppets to enlighten them. Since he had already taken them in, he would train them into all sorts of talents so that they could help his son in the future.
Those dozen or so children weren't taught much knowledge. Unless they were truly gifted in a particular area, most of them only needed to learn to read, while the others were prepared to practice martial arts.
Believe it or not, among these children, there are actually two or three who are exceptionally talented. Although they don't have the ability to remember everything they read, they can memorize it firmly after reading it two or three times.
Even if you ask them again a few days later, they will still remember it.
Since you have such great talent, then don't waste it. But you still need to practice martial arts. Just divide the time, half a day for studying literature and half a day for practicing martial arts.
They may not be as skilled in martial arts as those who practice diligently, but at least they have some ability to protect themselves, unlike scholars who become a burden when something happens.
They were living a pretty good life, teaching a few children to read and practice martial arts every day, and also practicing their calligraphy and reading books themselves.
However, during this period, Tang Baozhu felt particularly irritable.
When Tang Baozhu first arrived, she brought a son with her. When people asked her about it, she simply told them that she had lost contact with the child's father.
As for the puppet, she simply said he was a deaf-mute, and since he looked pitiful, she took him in to drive her carriage. Besides, the puppet's apparent age was around forty or fifty.
I told them directly that I'm just focused on raising my son properly and have no other thoughts.
At first it was fine, but then gradually, they probably felt that her family was doing quite well, after all, they could support more than a dozen children they had taken in from outside.
So gradually, some people started to have designs on Tang Baozhu.
Even though Tang Baozhu said she didn't want to remarry and was prepared to wait for the child's father to come looking for her, there were still some people who wouldn't give up.
Having no other choice, Tang Baozhu simply put on a grand opera performance to let everyone know that she had a deep affection for her ex-husband and that even though he was gone, she had no intention of remarrying and just wanted to stay by his side.
The other villagers thought Tang Baozhu was crazy for doing this.
For these people who moved down from the mountains, they never knew when they would die in the mouths of wild animals. So, their wives usually remarried, taking the children with them, so that they could raise the children and have an heir.
Despite her illness, I still think she's quite kind. After all, she took in a deaf-mute old man and even cared for orphans without parents.
Sometimes people aren't necessarily kind themselves, but they just like to associate with kind people because they feel that one day they might need their help.
After being rejected several times, no one came to her to propose marriage anymore.
Her reputation spread, and it was said that there was a woman in Sweetwater Village who was separated from her husband when they fled from war. Even after so much time had passed, she refused to remarry and took in disabled people and orphans without parents.
Although they outwardly thought she was foolish, deep down they were actually envious.
After all, their custom is that when a hunter dies, his wife remarries with the children, so that the children can be raised, since life here is really too hard.
They can forget about having a wife who will stay with their children in the future; that's why they're so envious.
That day, everyone was practicing martial arts and calligraphy in the courtyard when suddenly thunder rumbled in the sky, followed by a heavy rain.
Tang Baozhu felt the raindrops hitting her face and thought that the drought should be over soon.
I've been hiding in this small mountain village for several months, and I don't know if there are more corpses lying on that road now.
But she knew that this disaster was finally coming to an end, and she figured the male lead should be about to march on the capital soon.
Looking at her son, Xiaodouding, Tang Baozhu originally wanted to go outside to take a look, and also thought about whether she should find a father for her son.
For a woman as experienced as her, there are still occasional needs.
Unlike before, she could endure for decades without finding a man.
But she was also worried that if Xiao Bao's biological father came looking for him, it might be a bit too much for her to find Xiao Bao a stepfather.
After all, she's using Xiao Bao's mother's body, so we should at least consider things more thoroughly.
最后想着还是等小宝年纪大一点再说，等到他五六岁的时候，想来应该也是很懂事了，到时候再来问他，要是他没有意见的话，那么自己再去外面找。
最主要的是想趁着这五年的时间，看看是否能把他爹，那个猎户给找到，到时候再考虑一下是把小宝给他爹带着，还是自己带着？
如果自己带着的话，那么就要稍微端庄一点，不能到处去外面浪了，省的给小宝一种不好的印象。
