The little grass was about to give birth, which worried the females greatly. As soon as Begonia saw it, she immediately went in and said, "It seems she is really about to give birth. Her water has broken. Little deer, go back and get a big pot to boil water. Sisters... go and find some leaves to cover the area. I will help the little grass give birth here."
"Okay." Upon hearing this, the women immediately went to find large leaves. In this era, everything was big, so large leaves were easy to find. If they couldn't find any, they would use tree branches.
Haitang took off her coat and used it as a cushion for the pregnant woman. "Sister, please don't... I have nothing to compensate you with." Xiaocao was still sober and immediately spoke up when she saw Haitang using her own clothes to cushion the pregnant woman's body.
Haitang placed leaves underneath and cushioned her clothes with them. "In this situation, why bother with these things? You don't need to pay for it," Haitang said.
Xiao Lu went to get the pot and immediately started heating water. Haitang took out something from her bosom, "Eat something... you'll starve if you don't eat." Haitang was adjusting the baby's position to correct it.
The cervix is only dilated to five fingers and needs to dilate further. In this situation, Xiaocao needs energy. Upon hearing this, Xiaocao nodded.
He bit his lip, his face pale, but he still ate some food. Several women helped him eat, and Haitang breathed a sigh of relief when she saw this.
Women in this era are physically stronger than those in modern times; they can withstand more stress. If a modern person came here, something bad would happen every second.
Once the baby was in the correct position, Haitang began the delivery. Passing females joined the fray, forming a human wall to block the area. The orcs knew about this but did not come over.
It was already evening when the baby was born, but the baby's cries broke the dawn. Haitang held the baby in the clothes Xiaolu had brought, saying, "Look..."
Little Grass turned her head and said, "If they're beastmen, throw them into the river. If they're female, let someone in the village carry them." Hearing this, Begonia was stunned for a long time.
The child in her arms was a little beastman. Looking at its tender appearance, the young life that was born in her hands and then to be thrown into the river, Haitang couldn't bear it.
As Haitang washed the child's body, several females looked at the little beast with disgust. Haitang could understand that the hatred towards hyenas in this hyena clan meant they couldn't show any pity for these children.
After washing Xiaocao clean, Haitang asked someone to take her back. Looking at the child in her arms, Haitang opened her mouth to look at Huoqiu. Huoqiu, carrying the child, came to the riverbank. Haitang saw that he was about to throw her in, and cried out, "No..."
Haitang immediately reached out and grabbed it. Huoqiu looked at Haitang and said, "Haitang, this is a child of the hyena clan. The hyena clan is inherently cruel and cannot be tamed... It's best to abandon it."
"I know, but the problem is I delivered the baby. I can't bear to watch you throw the baby down in front of me," Haitang said through gritted teeth. She was, after all, a modern woman.
Regarding the children, she had heard that the young beastmen among the hyenas had been killed. She understood that it was the tribe's duty to do so, because if the hyenas broke in, the villagers would suffer the same fate.
The problem...the problem is that this child was just born in her hands, and she's going to throw him into the river to drown him? She can't do it...it's impossible for her to do it. Haitang said, "I'll take him back and raise him. Don't worry, I'll teach this child well. If he really has problems, how about we kill him in a few years?"
Haitang spoke up, and her words made Huoqiu frown. Huoqiu looked at Haitang and said, "He can only be human. Haitang... We can accept that he is human, but we cannot accept that he is a beastman. Also... is he willing to accept the fact that he is human?" Huoqiu asked as he looked at Haitang.
Upon hearing this, Haitang looked somewhat at a loss for words. In this situation, she didn't know how to decide a child's future.
In fact, she is also a cruel person. If she hadn't seen it, and had heard that the child had been thrown into the water, she would have felt sad for the child, but wouldn't have cared too much about it. The problem is that the child was born in her own hands.
She couldn't accept being thrown into the water right in front of her. "I will raise this child, and... how about treating him as a purchased slave?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Qiu looked at Hai Tang. The hyena clan had no slaves; it was a dog-eat-dog world… the weak would be devoured. Hearing this, Huo Qiu looked at Hai Tang and asked, “Okay, Hai Tang… are your family members willing?”
Upon hearing this, Haitang turned around and looked at Shi Hu not far away. Shi Hu said, "It's just a little baby, it's no problem."
Shi Hu could see his daughter's reluctance and understood his wife's expression. He didn't care; he could just leave the child there. But his daughter happened to witness it.
Not only did she witness it, but she also delivered the baby. Under such circumstances, Haitang couldn't bear to watch the child being thrown into the water. Moreover... Shi Hu sighed, "That kid Huo Qiu."
It's hard to believe that a female would wait until her daughter is gone before throwing her away. Throwing her away in front of her daughter is something even a young female would find hard to bear.
Hearing this, Haitang's eyes reddened, and Dongfang Long also spoke up, "Anyway, we have plenty of beastmen at home, so one more won't make a difference."
With tigers, leopards... and dragons in the family, even adding a hyena wouldn't be a problem. Besides, what can I say about nature? If you raise them well, there shouldn't be any major issues.
Of course, there was another reason: Haitang would be unable to sleep at night after seeing this, and she would suffer in the future. Huoqiu sighed, but still gave the child to Haitang.
