"Of course," Haitang nodded. She would naturally show the result to the other party once it was finished, but there really wasn't enough fabric to weave.
Qiao Yu felt a little better after receiving Haitang's reply. Haitang also started looking around. It has to be said that a craftsman is a craftsman.
Although there were parts he didn't understand, he could figure them out. Not only could he figure them out, but he could also come up with better splicing ideas by slowly refining them, which was something Haitang hadn't expected.
Qiao Yu's loom couldn't be fixed in a short time. Haitang took a look and went back. Today, Xiaohe went to collect with Xiaolu and others, while Haitang went to water the plants at home.
Under such circumstances, Haitang went back to fetch water to irrigate the vegetable garden. While fetching water, she also watched the stars not far away cleaning up the manure. When Haitang looked at the stars, a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
The child is getting taller and taller. After the two of them finished their work, Haitang made some cold noodles for Xingxing. Xingxing ate them happily, saying, "Everything at home is delicious, sister."
“Your second sister did just as well. She’ll be upset if you say that,” Haitang said, ruffling Xingxing’s hair. Xingxing immediately nodded.
"Hmm, but it's a little worse than my sister's." Xingxing ate while looking at the crabapple blossoms. "By the way, sister, what have you been looking for to do these days?"
“We need to dig a well. Look, the river is quite far from us. We have to go out every day to get water, which is exhausting. If we dig a well at home, we'll have water right here and won't have to go so far,” Haitang said.
Upon hearing this, Xingxing tilted her head and asked, "Is the water in the house from the well? I'd like to see." Haitang nodded in response.
Just then, Shi Ming rushed in from outside, "Girl, your third aunt is about to give birth, go and see her, hurry..." Haitang nodded and put down what she was holding.
Then, while Xingxing stayed home to watch over the baby, Haitang went to help Xiaocao give birth. Shiming started boiling water and prepared a lot of things. Under these circumstances, Xiaocao lay there crying loudly.
Shi Ming was terrified several times, wondering if childbirth was too painful for women. Although he had seen women give birth before, the problem was... that wasn't his wife.
Regardless of the other party's intentions, Xiaocao's pregnancy was smooth and the baby was born well. Although not very strong, the baby was much stronger than Xiuxiu's youngest child.
"Hot water..." Shi Ming held out the hot water, and Haitang immediately checked the water temperature. "Cold water..." Shi Ming nodded, and once the water temperature was just right, he started bathing the child.
"Blanket..." Shi Ming nodded and hurriedly went to get it for Haitang. Haitang sighed, and Xiao Cao immediately pointed to a spot not far away. Shi Ming took it and gave it to Haitang, who then wrapped the child in it.
"It's a little beastman." Haitang held the child and handed it to Xiaocao, cleaning it up. When Xiaocao looked at the child, her eyes were filled with an indescribable joy.
"Look, it's a little beastman..." Upon hearing this, Shi Ming nodded, reached out to hug it, but quickly shook his head.
"Don't hold him, I'm clumsy and I might hurt the baby." Hearing this, Xiaocao couldn't help but smile.
Haitang looked at Shiming and said, "Third Uncle, come here for a moment. I have something to tell you." Xiaocao seemed a little weak, and Haitang looked at Shiming.
“I’m not saying that postpartum confinement should last a month, but the baby is at least ten days old now. These next few days, you and Sansheng should cook something for each other, like stewed pig’s feet with peanuts or soybeans. Also, don’t forget the vegetables. Give them all to your aunt, as she’s not very strong,” Haitang said to Shiming.
"Yes, I know." Shi Ming nodded. Haitang then went to check on the child before leaving. Xiao Cao's body would be much weaker, entirely because he had been abused by the hyenas.
Although many animals were brought back from the tribe, the woman was still weak and fainted several times outside, requiring the female to bring her back. Because of this, Shi Ming would take his wife with him when he went out, and would stay by her side when she was about to give birth.
After giving Shi Ming his instructions, Haitang went back home. The sky had darkened, and Xiaohe, knowing that Haitang had gone to deliver the baby, started cooking.
When Shi Hu returned, he exclaimed, "She's given birth! That's wonderful! Is it a little beastman or a female?"
“The little beastman is in good health. These days, let Uncle take good care of Auntie’s health, and the child will recover.” Haitang said, and Shi Hu nodded upon hearing this.
After eating, he took the chicken that the family had hunted that day and the eggs that the family usually kept at home to find Shi Ming. Shi Ming was a little stunned to see his older brother come.
"Here you go. Tangtang said it's all because your wife is good. Take good care of her." Upon hearing this, Shi Ming looked at Shi Hu, nodded, and took the things. Shi Hu put down the things, went to check on the child, and left.
As Xiaocao watched Shiming sitting alone, she asked, "What are you thinking about?"
“I’m thinking, my eldest brother hasn’t done anything wrong to me. On the contrary, I’ve been throwing a tantrum for a long time.” He said, looking at his wife. “Because of what happened when we were kids, I’ve always had a grudge against my eldest brother. I feel that my eldest brother and the second brother stole my chance to become a beastman.”
Over the years, he has gradually let go of the problem. He used to take Shi Hu's meat as a matter of course, but now he feels a little guilty.
“That’s just how the world is,” Xiaocao said. “In my old tribe, only the eldest child was raised, and the other children were practically left to their own devices to find food and grow up. The chances of them turning into beasts were even lower. If they were capable, they might turn into beasts, but out of three sons, two would turn into beasts. Many of the less capable ones would starve to death.” Holding the child in her arms, she said, “Shiming, how about we raise one child first, and then have more when he’s older?”
"Okay." Upon hearing this, Shi Ming hugged his wife and said. He had suffered from not being able to become a beastman before. Now, there was a human race that could transform into a beastman, but the problem was that it required that so-called Ganoderma lucidum.
In this situation, many people just accept their fate if they get lucky. Shi Ming, however, is no longer so keen on becoming a beastman now that he has a wife.
Shi Ming's little grass gave birth to a baby, and soon Xiu Xiu was also going to give birth. Hai Tang went to help Xiu Xiu deliver the baby, which was a little beastman. Xiu Xiu was very happy because the little beastman looked strong and was sure that it could transform into a beast.
Haitang shook her head and touched the two- or three-year-old beastman not far away as she left. The little boy immediately asked, "Sister... are you going back?"
"Okay, we're going back now. You have to eat your food properly, okay?" The little one looks smaller and thinner than the other children. His older brothers at home dote on him and protect him. But this congenital deficiency can't be made up for just by trying to fix it.
“Yes, Little Yao’er eats a lot every day,” Little Yao’er said. “Not only can I eat a lot, but I can also help water the plants, pull weeds, and do many other things.”
Haitang nodded and gently ruffled the child's hair. She took a piece of candy from her pocket and gave it to him. It was cane candy, and the little boy smiled a lot as he ate it.
Haitang knew that Xiuxiu and Shishui both felt that Xiaoyao'er was unlikely to transform into a beast, so they trained him to farm and raise livestock, which was also a way out.
