The world is broken, the cubs mend it
Chapter 184 Era: Not Grow Tall
Yuanyuan wrapped the ice strips with the scraps of cloth that her father had cut off and unused, and waved them vigorously in her hands.
The melting snow is colder than the falling snow. The yellow soil in the yard becomes sticky after the snow melts, and the soles of your shoes will be covered with mud when you step on it.
Chen Jiahe felt that the two moves the child performed had a bit of a martial arts feel, as if he had learned kung fu before.
When the sun comes out, the children still like to sit by the brazier, and the ice bars in their hands quickly melt into a pool of water by the brazier.
The ice water dripping onto the charcoal fire makes a crackling sound. Yuanyuan likes to play like this.
But after the ice melted, the rags became wet and the little hands were frozen red.
Wang Mazi kept his word and came to teach Chen Jiahe pinyin in his free time every evening.
The little one was also watching from the side, and gradually he could recognize some simple words and pinyin.
As the ice and snow melt, it is particularly comfortable to sit in the yard and bask in the sun at noon. The warm sunshine makes people drowsy.
Yuanyuan also likes to lean on his father's arms to bask in the sun, and then take a nap with his eyes closed.
A shadow loomed over. Wang Ziheng, carrying a hunting rifle, called Wang Mazi and told him to go into the mountains to hunt wild boars.
The day before yesterday, Wang Mazi's father went to the mountains to collect firewood and found a lot of wild boar hoof prints.
Last night, the wheat fields at the foot of the mountain were also dug up by wild boars. It seemed that there were more than one big wild boars.
"You guys go, I still have to look after the kids."
Since the last time, Chen Jiahe would not leave the child alone. The road in the mountains was difficult to travel on, and he didn't want to take the child with him.
"Even if you take one with you, you may not be able to find it."
Wang Ziheng weighed the hunting rifle in his hand. If they could kill the prey, they would share it equally among the three of them, and they would not have to worry about meat for the New Year.
The two of them were not very familiar with each other originally, but they met twice after having dinner together last time. I felt that he was a very motivated person and they could get to know each other more.
"..."
Chen Jiahe shook his head silently. From their description, the wild boars were quite large and it was too dangerous to take the children with them.
Silence is the best answer, Wang Ziheng did not force it and planned to leave first.
Wang Mazi did not move, but raised his hand to push the child in his arms. The little guy opened his eyes dazedly and shouted, "Yuanyuan, let's go to the mountains to hunt wild boars. Do you want to go?"
"Wild boar?" Yuanyuan covered her mouth with her hands and yawned, but she nodded: "Yes, let's go now."
"Let's go!"
Wang Mazi clapped his hands and trotted to catch up with the person in front of him, completely ignoring Chen Jiahe's face which was as black as the bottom of a pot.
"..."
Wang Ziheng seemed to understand why the two of them could have such a good relationship. It can only be said that everyone has their own bad points.
Everything was left to the child. The little guy was very curious about things he had never seen before and excitedly pulled his father to go with him.
Chen Jiahe couldn't persuade the child, and seeing that she really wanted to go, he had no choice but to carry her and follow her.
The forest divided by Mazi's family was full of pine trees, and there were many pine cones on the ground. Several people found wild boar hoof prints on the mountainside.
"There are still footprints ahead, keep going forward."
Wang Ziheng took the hunting rifle from his back, put it in his hand and walked in front.
About two hundred meters ahead, there was a rustling sound coming from the dry grass, and the few people slowed down and approached.
"Dad, is the wild boar there?" Yuanyuan pointed at the haystack and whispered in her father's ear.
Chen Jiahe nodded and held her as he backed away. An adult wild boar could break a tree as thick as a bowl. If the wild boar rushed towards him while he was holding the child, it would be difficult for him to run away.
Hum hum--
A pig-like grunt sound came from the grass, and an adult black wild boar showed half of its head. There were two crescent-shaped fangs on its wide and long mouth, and its back was high and bulging, looking very ferocious.
"So big?"
Wang Mazi opened his mouth in astonishment. The wild boar looked to weigh more than 200 pounds.
"!!"
Yuanyuan was held in her father's arms and could see farther and more clearly, but she was so scared by the ugly thing in front of her that her eyes widened.
This pig is different from the piglets we raise at home.
"Stand back a little..."
Wang Ziheng's palms were covered with sweat. It was probably impossible to kill a wild boar this big with just one shot.
The sound of a wild boar kicking its hind legs came from the grass. The alert wild boar suddenly jumped out of the grass and charged towards the humans fiercely. Its strong limbs raised dust and came at it with great momentum.
boom--
boom--
Two gunshots startled the birds in the forest. The strong wild boar died from the hunting rifle, and its sturdy body fell in the dust.
Chen Jiahe covered the child's eyes in advance. Wang Mazi was a little timid, and his legs were shaking with fear when he saw the wild boar rushing towards him.
"The wild boar was killed?"
Yuanyuan clutched her father's clothes tightly with both hands and tilted her little head to look forward.
"Are you scared?"
Chen Jiahe patted the child's back gently. She shook twice when he fired the gun just now.
"Don't be afraid, wild boars don't look good."
Yuanyuan did not see the shooting scene, but only heard two loud bangs.
On the way back, Yuanyuan followed his father and walked slowly down the mountain. The three adults worked together to carry the wild boar down the mountain.
Many villagers came to see the wild boar thrown in the yard. A wild boar this big must be quite old.
Several people hung the wild boar upside down and asked Village Chief Wang to come and help kill the boar.
When Yuanyuan saw Village Chief Wang scalding a pig and shaving its hair, she curiously went over to take the extra razor.
"This is very sharp. You must be careful not to cut your hands."
Chen Jiahe carried her away from the scene and sat on the threshold of Wang Ziheng's house.
Some people in the countryside were afraid that their chickens would be stolen, so they built a chicken coop at home. In the evening, when the chickens should have returned to the coops, an old rooster was reluctant to enter the house.
Old man Wang drove the rooster with a bamboo pole, and the old rooster was driven into a corner, where it flapped its wings and flew away with a cluck.
then……
It landed steadily on Yuanyuan's head, and the little guy's head, which was leaning forward to watch the adults slaughtering the pig, was pressed back.
"what--"
A sharp cry broke out at the door. The old rooster stepped on the child's head with both claws and tilted his head to look left and right.
"!!!"
Chen Jiahe ran over immediately, took off the old rooster and threw it away.
"Dad, it stepped on my head and I can't grow taller."
Yuanyuan's head lightened and her neck stiffened again, she cried with tears and snot.
"No, are you hurt anywhere?"
Chen Jiahe pulled apart the child's hair and carefully examined his scalp. Fortunately, he was not scratched by the chicken claws.
The little guy didn't feel any pain anywhere, but he kept crying and asking if he could still grow taller.
"It can grow taller, and being stepped on by a chicken won't affect it."
"Really? Brother Lele said that you can't grow taller by drilling through the crotch."
There is a saying in the village that if you crawl through the crotch of pants, you won’t grow taller. Yuanyuan felt like she crawled through the crotch of her husband’s pants.
"Ah?" Chen Jiahe couldn't help laughing out loud: "How can a chicken have a crotch? This is all superstition, don't believe everything."
"really?"
Yuanyuan touched his head and felt that his head was not clean.
"Of course!"
"I do not believe!"
"Then spit on the ground three times and jump a few times, and the crotch-drilling curse will disappear."
Chen Jiahe smoothed her frizzy hair, feeling a little jealous. She actually believed others but not herself.
