"Then what are you doing up the mountain?" Shi Zhentang also raised his upper body and kissed his wife on the lips.
"I want to say goodbye to Lao Hei."
“…”
"So I have to go alone. Otherwise, if there are others around, Old Black might not show up."
"That won't work." Upon hearing that she was going up the mountain alone, Shi Zhentang immediately objected with a stern face: "There's no room for negotiation. Maybe Lao Hei and the others won't hurt you, but the mountain road is steep..."
"Okay, if you're not allowed to go, then I won't go!" Tian Yuzhu fell back onto the pillow like a deflated ball and turned her back to him.
"What? Are you angry?" Shi Zhentang leaned over and stretched his head to look at her: "I know you are in good health, but we can't take any risks. How about this, tell me what you want to say to Lao Hei, and I'll give it a try."
"You're going? Will the wolf pack recognize you?"
The young wife was furious, and Shi Zhentang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry: "I'm doing this for your own good!"
"Then do you want to do good for your child?"
"What's the meaning?"
Tian Yuzhu turned her head and looked at him: "Do you remember grandma's dream? She said she dreamed of a very beautiful baby with a big black wolf following him.
I ask you, what does this dream mean?"
Shi Zhentang pondered for a moment: "Does it mean that our baby is good-looking?"
"Go away." Tian Yuzhu punched his arm coquettishly and said, "I tell you, grandma rarely dreams. Since she had such a dream, it means that our baby will definitely be protected by the black wolf in the future.
And I guess that it is unlikely that Lao Hei will be the one to protect our baby in the future. It is likely that Xiao Hei will be the one to protect our baby. Think about it, the wolf has been kind to us in two lifetimes. Shouldn't it be wrong for us to go up the mountain to say goodbye when we leave?
Even though he's a wolf, he still has to be as worldly-wise as a human being. Otherwise, how can you face asking Xiao Hei to protect our child in the future?
Shi Zhentang was stunned: "You don't sound like you're going to meet a wolf, but more like you're going to visit relatives."
Tian Yuzhu rolled her eyes at him and said, "Almost. Anyway, it's settled tomorrow, so I have to go."
"I'll accompany you."
"no."
"Then you go up the mountain, I'll wait at the foot of the mountain. If you don't come down in half an hour, I'll rush up."
"There's really no need. You should just go and help distribute the land in the commune tomorrow. Only with you as the village party secretary can we calm down those unreasonable people. I'll be fine. No more talking, go to sleep."
“…”
Before Shi Zhentang could express his opinion, the oil lamp was blown out.
He sighed in the darkness and helplessly fell back to lie down: "Then be careful."
"knew!"
well!
My daughter-in-law is too strong physically and I can't control her no matter how hard I try.
…
The next morning, Tian Yuzhu got up early, lit the stove, and skillfully made a stir-fried rabbit, but without adding chili peppers.
When Su Zhen got up, she had already finished her work. She fried the rabbit, wrapped it in oil paper, and put it in a bamboo basket to go out.
"Hey, Yuzhu, where are you going?" Su Zhen was surprised. Why did you get up so early?
Tian Yuzhu said with a relaxed smile: "Sister-in-law, I'm going to the land temple to pray for a safe journey. I'm leaving tomorrow!"
"Oh, then I'll go with you."
"No, no, I'll be back in a moment."
"Then go slower."
Su Zhen watched her walk out of the yard and turn back, and suddenly she came to her senses. Where did the land temple in Quanshui Village come from? Wasn’t it demolished during the movement a few years ago?
She immediately wanted to chase after her, but she ran into Shi Zhentang who just came out to rinse his mouth. He calmly stopped her and said, "Don't chase after your sister-in-law. She will be back soon."
Oh, thank goodness this was something the couple had discussed, so there’s nothing to worry about!
Su Zhen didn't mention that there was no land temple in the village. She turned back to the kitchen and started working.
…
Tian Yuzhu got up early in the morning and went up the mountain just to avoid being seen by the villagers.
She also prefers the early morning in the forest, the morning dew on the fallen leaves by the roadside, and the clear scent of leaves in the air.
When she climbed over a mountain, the sunlight poured down from the sky, clear and bright.
Tian Yuzhu narrowed her eyes and went straight up to the Eagle's Beak Cliff.
Standing at a high point and looking at Quanshui Village at the foot of the mountain, I feel it is so delicate and elegant.
In less than a quarter of an hour, there was movement behind me.
Tian Yuzhu didn't look back. She closed her eyes and enjoyed the morning breeze and the sunshine.
The footsteps stopped beside him: "..."
"Old Black, I'm actually quite envious of you. It's so nice to live in the forest. The air is fresh and you're free from worries."
Lao Hei showed a confused expression: "..."
I probably don't understand why this human knew it was it without even taking a look at it.
It didn't know that Tian Yuzhu was with Xiao Hei every day and had long been accustomed to the smell of wolves, and since she became pregnant, her sense of smell had become more sensitive.
"Look what I brought you." Tian Yuzhu turned her head and looked at Lao Hei with a warm smile. She squatted down and took out the paper package from the bamboo basket and slowly opened it: "A cooked rabbit.
I know you all eat raw meat, which is the taste of humans. And, Xiao Hei also eats this kind of food, which is all cooked and cooked with fire. Try it, and feel how it tastes to your son.
Lao Hei understood, but he felt a little embarrassed.
He leaned forward and sniffed it, but didn't rush to eat it. Instead, he took a step back.
It seemed to be thinking it over again and again, and finally stretched out its tongue to taste it, and then ate a piece with surprise.
"Look, it's delicious, right? Human food contains salt, so it's not as bland as what you eat." Tian Yuzhu held the paper bag in her hand and fed it.
The more Lao Hei ate, the more excited he became. He was so happy that his long tongue was rolling around and his fangs were bared. His eating manners were not very elegant, but it showed that he really enjoyed it.
Soon, not even a bone was left of the fried rabbit.
Tian Yuzhu was a little embarrassed: "If I had known you liked it, I would have made two more for you, but you can make it now. Ask your brothers to catch some rabbits. It will be quick."
Lao Hei nodded, turned around and howled into the forest.
Eagle's Beak Cliff is high and far away from the village, so the villagers cannot hear its howling.
What's more, the land is being distributed today, so you can imagine how noisy the commune must be right now.
While waiting for the wolf brothers to catch rabbits, Tian Yuzhu collected firewood and then used a knife to cut a stick.
She performed a fire-making trick for Lao Hei, but the guy was so scared that he looked like an idiot: "..."
This human is so amazing.
Tian Yuzhu held back her laughter and gathered some firewood to make a fire, while she chatted with it about Xiao Hei's daily life.
At this moment, Lao Hei suddenly walked up to her, stretched out one of his front paws with a serious expression...
"What's wrong? You want to shake hands with me?" Tian Yuzhu thought that wolves could also do this.
Who would have thought that when she reached out her hand, Lao Hei ignored her and directly pressed his wolf claws on her belly, nodded at her, then lowered his head and howled towards the sky.
The wolf's howl echoed over the cliff, as if telling her something!
