Haitang took the husky with her this time, and they found food very quickly. The husky was very well-behaved and wouldn't cause trouble. It would even warn her if there were any wild animals around, barking loudly.
Haitang is quite satisfied with this. There is already one child in the family, but to be honest, Haitang is a little overwhelmed by the prospect of having another child.
Fortunately, Xiaohe was raising and holding the child... Haitang felt that she, as the older sister, was too irresponsible. She had found a child for Xiaohe, but left Xiaohe to raise the child on her own.
Under these circumstances, Haitang would always bring some fruit for Xiaohe when she went back, and Xiaohe wasn't too unhappy about having a child on her own.
The baby girl, named Ping An, means peace and safety. Haitang will hug the child when she goes home.
However, most of the crabapple trees have a lot of things to do, so they are not taken care of much, as the local elders say.
This winter will last for six months. When Haitang heard this, she felt uneasy. If it doubled, then she would naturally have to find even more things.
Fortunately, the ten acres of land at home were cultivated by people, and the water was only irrigated by Dongfang Long and Shi Hu after they returned from hunting.
Under such circumstances, both soybeans and sweet potatoes grew very well. Xiuxiu's family also grew vegetables, although they were not as good as Haitang's.
It was still a small income. Spring is a busy season for everyone. What Haitang and the others did these days was go out to collect things and make sausages at home.
As the livestock grow larger, the crabapple will be slaughtered if there are too many, though not all of them.
Actually, slaughtering pigs is usually done in winter, when there isn't much food available. This is the best time to slaughter pigs. The pigs at Haitang's house are all very fierce.
Haitang also went to see the pigs that were raised together in the tribe. They were growing well and looked plump and strong. They could be slaughtered in a few days, which made Huoqiu very happy.
It's still a source of income, after all. The next winter will be six months long, and everyone is trying their best to find food.
Shi Ming would come to learn about herbs from Tian, and Haitang would tell people what herbs to take. Shi Ming could feel the energy within his body, which was a ball of flame.
He felt that even if he couldn't do it this year, he could fill the flames next year, and then he would definitely be able to transform into a beast.
This year, five young orcs in the tribe have successfully transformed into beastmen. The young orcs who have transformed are currently ten years old and fifteen years old.
After the young orc successfully transforms into a beastman, he will begin hunting with his father. This year, the success rate of transformation is 5 to 4, which is much better than last year.
In fact, many people can see that the main reason is probably because this little beastman is eating well, but he is a fifteen-year-old who failed to transform into a beastman.
After being sent out of the upper village, under these circumstances, Haitang went to see the little beastman who, carrying some bundles, went to the lower village, somewhat lost and dejected, to the small house that her father and others had built for her.
In Shi Ming's words, he hasn't recovered in the past few days. "That silly boy, if he doesn't try to find something to eat now, he'll just starve to death."
Winter is drawing ever closer, and if we can't transform into beasts, we have to accept our human identity and quickly find food to survive the winter, or we'll freeze to death.
Upon hearing this, Haitang sighed, "Suddenly becoming human is something few people can accept." Haitang said, "Your third uncle checked for you, and your body is in good shape. If you continue to take care of yourself like this next year, you will definitely be able to transform into a beast."
Haitang didn't intend to say anything more about the matter and directly changed the subject. Upon hearing this, Shi Ming immediately nodded happily.
"That's right, you don't know that I will be able to transform into a beast in a few days. By the way, I will have a female." Haitang was slightly taken aback. "Which hyena clan's female? I chose one named Xiaocao."
Hearing this, Haitang was stunned. "I know the child you're raising now is Xiaocao's, but it has little to do with her, and this is not her fault."
"Don't worry, Uncle, I won't make things difficult for Xiaocao. She'll be my Aunt from now on. Besides... everyone has their own choices, and she didn't do anything wrong," Haitang said.
Upon hearing this, Shi Ming breathed a sigh of relief. He had finally found a female willing to follow him, but he didn't want her to fall out with Haitang.
Because in many situations, he is the one who needs Haitang's help, and he doesn't want to lose Haitang's help.
Shi Ming sat down for a moment and then left. When he left, he looked for Shi Hu and asked if he wanted any females. "No, thank you," Shi Hu immediately shook his head.
"Why would I want a female? This is enough for a lifetime, with my children." The leopard cat dared not take a female; the first died in childbirth, and the second would be a disaster for him.
Under such circumstances, Shi Hu didn't have much on his mind. Right now, he just wanted his children to grow up and then retire, although retirement would also be troublesome.
However, he now has an idea that will prevent him from having any problems retiring: he can raise pigs after he retires.
In Haitang's family, with several sows, many piglets were born. In such cases, the elderly people in the village would exchange goods for them.
When someone said they wanted to raise a boar and a sow, Haitang agreed to trade with them because Haitang's breeding was very successful and many people tried to learn from her, although... some people failed.
The problem wasn't with the crabapple tree; it was because the other party hadn't cleaned the pigsty properly. So you can't blame other people's pigs, but their pigs caused the problem.
