    When the weather started to warm up, this group of inland people who had been tortured by seafood finally came back to life.  There are always a lot of wild vegetables on the mountains in spring, and sometimes you can even pick up mushrooms.  If you are lucky, you can hunt a few pheasants and hares, add some wild vegetables to stew a large pot of soup, it is a rare delicacy.

    In the past, when the tribe hunted pheasants, hares and the like, they would kill them all on the same day. If they could not finish eating, they would dry them into dried meat and store it.  But that was not possible now. Chen Qiao gave them a suggestion. As long as the captured prey was not a ferocious beast and was not seriously injured and could be fed, they should keep it in captivity as much as possible.

    During the winter, they also experienced the benefits of keeping animals in captivity. During the season when food is scarce, they can still eat fresh meat.  Moreover, they were also very greedy when looking at the chickens raised by Dila and Maixi.

    There is no big pot of food in the tribe. After the house is built, some of them are related and they get together to become a family.  There are also a few young people who choose to live alone in a wooden house.  There are also some people who are not related, but several older people live in the same yard and take in one or two unrelated children at the same time.

    The few surviving women have also found a home in this spring. The tribe needs to reproduce, and choosing a man to start a family together is their best choice.

    Chen Qiao¡¯s family built a small courtyard, two bedrooms, a woodshed, and a kitchen next to the original simple stone house.  Not far from the house, a pig pen and a chicken pen were built.

    Although the house is crudely built, it is still fully equipped.  At first, Baya didn't understand why he put so much effort into building such a big house. Later, he became comfortable and felt that Chen Qiao really knew how to live.

    People in this tribe have always been absolutely loyal to their partners.  So even though Baya and Chen Qiao are not in a relationship, this man still regards Chen Qiao as his responsibility, and he must do it regardless of whether the other party needs it or not.

    He was very proud to see Chen Qiao being so capable. He did not believe in the so-called gift from God, but he chose to accept it. This was a concession that he had to make as the leader of the clan.  He couldn't explain Chen Qiao's origins. He admitted that he didn't fully understand many things. However, just because he didn't know, he couldn't arbitrarily conclude that things were done by gods, right?

    Now he finds that Chen Qiao is far better than he imagined. Such a man deserves the best partner in the world, but he just became his own person by chance.  He should feel lucky, whether he met this person or the mythical changes he brought to his tribe.

    When it was time to reclaim the land, the tribe distributed hoes per head, allowing them to freely reclaim the land and plant as much as they could. They were strictly prohibited from destroying the surrounding ecological environment at will.

    Chen Qiao doesn¡¯t work in the fields very much. In fact, there is nothing good to do in the fields. These people now only grow taro. They don¡¯t know if eating too much taro will cause any adverse reactions.

    In Chen Qiao's field, it is enough for Baya to be busy alone, and the people in the tribe will not let him go to the fields.  Chen Qiao's status in the tribe is now relatively subtle. People worship her as the "mistress" but give him the same respect as the clan leader.

    When the fields are not busy, Baya will go hunting in the mountains with his bow, arrows, machete and the strong men of the tribe. Basically, if you want to eat meat, you can¡¯t do it without hunting.

    The chickens they raised have all grown up a lot. In the winter, almost all the bigger chickens were eaten, leaving only two roosters and four hens. Later, when they built houses and lived separately  , they distributed some chicks to others, and now they only have five chicks.

    One morning, before Chen Qiao woke up, he heard Maixi babbling and talking to his father.

    This boy is now the first one to rush to the chicken pen to get eggs every day. There are four hens, and they usually only have three eggs every day. Sometimes, if they are unlucky, they only have two.

    Of course, sometimes these hens will perform extraordinarily well and lay four eggs, which is incredible. Children Maixi will definitely be excited for a long time, and then they will be filled with bugs and earthworms to serve those hens.  If he sees a rooster coming to grab food, the bamboo stick will definitely be very powerful when he swings it. Now those roosters are afraid when they see him.

    "Maixi, why are you so early today?" Since he couldn't sleep anyway, Chen Qiao simply got up and played with the children.

    "Dad, a little bird has come to lay eggs." When Maixi saw her father waking up, she immediately went over with the "bird eggs" to show off, leaving Baya feeling sad after being left out.

    "Which little girlHuh?  So good.  "Chen Qiao glanced at it, where are the eggs? It's clear which hen laid the eggs.

    "I don't know, Dad, why does the bird come to our house to lay eggs?"

    "Oh, I have to think about this." I want to think about how to make up a story to coax the children.

    "?" So Maixi looked at her father with admiration. Her father was so awesome. She understood everything after just thinking about it.

    "Yesterday morning, the little bird passed by our house and stopped on the big tree in the yard. No, it was on the big branch. Then he saw our little girl feeding the chickens."

    "Does the bird also want to eat bugs?" Maisie asked doubtfully.

    "No, the bird can catch it by itself." He was afraid that after he gave a positive answer, the boy would go crazy and do stupid things.

    "Then why did he come to our house to lay eggs?"

    "Because the egg is the baby of the bird. She saw that Maixi took care of the chicks so carefully, so she entrusted her baby to you to take care of."

    "Hey, why doesn't she want to take care of the baby by herself?" Maisie was still confused.

    "Then I don't know. She probably has something very, very important to do. Will Maisie take good care of the baby bird?"

    "Well! Dad, I'm going to catch bugs!" After saying that, he turned around and ran away.

    Baya finally saw Chen Qiao¡¯s method of coaxing children.

    "If you lie to him like this, how can the egg hatch into a bird in the future?"

    ¡°Why do we need to hatch a bird?¡±

    "How else can you prove that it is a bird egg?"

    "Tell him, because it was hatched by a hen, it would be good if it looks more like a mother chicken." As a habitual offender, Chen Qiao threw out the answer without thinking.  Then the honest man was left stunned and went to wash up at the well alone.

    When he turned around after washing his face, he saw this man standing behind him a little angrily.

    "You are lying to children."

    "good."

    "How could you do this?"

    "Is there anything wrong?"

    "Youthatsaying that is not good for the child!"

    "Why is it bad? Is it because you can't tell the difference between eggs and bird eggs?"

    "" Baya didn't know whether to affirm or deny.

    "He will naturally know when he grows up."

    "But you are dishonest."

    "Don't you think it would be much more wonderful to let a child think of it as a bird egg and then tell him a beautiful story and give him limited imagination than to simply tell him: You are wrong, that one is an egg?" Chen  Qiao was really a little impatient and spoke out his thoughts like a barrage of bullets.

    "What good does this do to him?" With Baya's thinking, he would never think about things in this aspect.

    "There is no benefit, it will only make him happier." Chen Qiao rarely looked at Baya seriously.  Yes, he just wants to make his children happier, even if they are lacking in material resources.

    Baya finally stopped talking. He looked at Chen Qiao's eyes seriously for a long time and found that he had never seriously understood this man's heart.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
