The man who came was Qiangzi from the village, who was only 19 years old. When he saw Han Heming's ox cart coming back, he hurried up.

"Brother Han, Shuanzi and his friends went into the mountains to hunt and something happened."

"what happened?"

Han Heming stopped the ox cart and looked at Qiangzi.

"Shuanzi and his friends went hunting in the mountains this morning and accidentally ran into a herd of wild boars. Now they can't get out. I'd like to ask Brother Han to go and take a look."

The young people in the village would go up the mountain to hunt during the slack season, but these people would basically only hunt some small prey such as pheasants and rabbits. Unless they were professional hunters, they would not even dare to touch wild boars.

Shuanzi and his friends encountered a group of wild boars, and Qiangzi escaped and came to find Han Heming.

"Have you entered the deep mountains?"

Hongya Mountain is very large. During the slack season, most villagers go up the mountain to pick mushrooms, dig wild vegetables, collect firewood, etc. They usually stay on the outskirts of the mountain and do not go deep into the mountains.

There are no large wild animals on the outskirts of the mountain, so it is relatively safe. But it is different when you go deep into the mountains. There are tigers, leopards, bears, wild boars, and everything else.

Qiangzi scratched his head embarrassedly and replied "yes".

This group of young men who went into the mountains were all teenagers. They were fearless and full of curiosity about Hongya Mountain. Seeing so many people around, they got brave and went deep into the mountains.

As soon as they entered the mountain, they saw a wild boar. Seven or eight young men became excited when they saw the wild boar. As long as they killed the wild boar, they could sell it for a lot of money. Even if they didn't sell it, it would be enough meat for their family to eat for several months.

Money is scarce among farmers, and it's difficult for every household to buy two taels of pork during the New Year holidays. Several young men are greedy for it. Seeing a wild boar is more heartwarming than seeing one's own parents. I have long forgotten that I can't go into the deep mountains.

The wild boar ran and they chased it, and were led by the wild boar into the herd.

Seeing the black mass of wild boars, the young men were dumbfounded. Qiangzi was at the back and barely escaped.

After he escaped, he found the village chief's house. The village chief heard that all the young men in the village had joined the wild boar group.

They also panicked and gathered the villagers to prepare to attack the wild boars, but they were all ordinary farmers and had no experience in hunting, so they called Qiangzi to find Han Heming.

Han Heming is the only hunter in Hongya Village. Although he is young, he is very good at hunting. He hunts several wild boars every year and has even hunted leopards and tigers. The village chief trusts him.

"Okay, I'll drive the ox cart home first and get some hunting tools. You go to the village chief's house and wait for me."

When Han Heming heard that the young man in the village had something to do, he didn't delay any longer and drove the ox cart as fast as he could to his home.

He has feelings for the villagers. When his father drove him out of the house, many people in the village saw that he was living a miserable life with his grandparents, so they would send some things to their family from time to time. He always remembered the kindness in his heart.

"Sister Yanzhi, I don't know how many days it will take for me to come back. Could you please help me take care of the children?"

"Don't worry, Brother Han, leave the household affairs to me."

"Big Boy, Second Boy, you two must listen to your stepmother. When I come back, if I find out you're not listening, I'll beat you up."

The matter was urgent, so Han Hemin didn't say much. He just grabbed his hunting tools and went out.

The eldest and second child used their short legs to catch up with their father. How could they catch up with Han Hemin? At the gate of the largest courtyard, they saw their father walking farther and farther away, and they lay there and watched for a long time.

Daddy is gone, and there is only a bad woman in the family, Han Dawa. What if this bad woman drives them out?

Song Yanzhi put the things she bought into the house and walked out. She saw two children standing at the door with tears in their eyes.

Seeing the two children crying pitifully, he felt distressed. He walked to them, squatted down and talked to the two children.

"Daddy went hunting and will be back soon. Do you know where my brother is? Let's go get him, okay?"

Only when they heard that they were going to hug their younger brother did the two children stop crying.

"Stepmother, I know my brother is at my uncle's mother's house."

Song Yanzhi fetched some water and washed the two children's faces. She held the second child and reached out to the eldest child.

"Do you want me to hold it?"

Da Wa looked at him, hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her little hand and held Song Yanzhi's hand.

Han Ming's home is in the village. At this moment, all the villagers are gathered at the village chief's house. When Song Yanzhi brought her two children to Han Ming's home, she didn't meet anyone along the way.

"Is anyone home?"

Han Ming's house consists of two mud houses. Next to the tile house is a small half-room mud house with slanted beams and a chimney. It is his kitchen. There is no yard, and his house does not look like a particularly wealthy family.

Han Ming has many brothers and his mother gave birth to eight sons and two daughters. When Han Bing divided the family, they gave Han Ming two mud houses. This was the best effort their parents had done.

"Who is it? I'm at home."

A clear female voice came from the mud house.

"Is sister-in-law in confinement? I'm Yanzhi."

Yanzhi opened the door while holding Erwa, and saw a woman with a blue cloth wrapped around her head about to get out of bed.

"Sister-in-law, please don't come down. The ground is cold. You mustn't catch a cold during your confinement period."

Han Dawa is familiar with Han Ming's wife and has already run to her side.

“Aunt Su, brother, I need to see my brother.”

Erwa also stared at his legs and wanted to go down. The eldest and second kids, who had lost their mother, loved their younger brother very much.

"Okay, then I won't be polite with you. Sister Rouge, please sit down."

"Sister-in-law, I won't sit down. I'm here to take the three kids back. I moved into the Han family this morning. From now on, I'll be the mother of these kids."

"That's great. With you at home taking care of these children, Heming, you don't have to worry about them anymore. Even if you take Sanwa back, what will you do with his milk?"

The child is still young and has not yet left the confinement period, so he cannot eat rice soup. She knows Song Yanzhi, who is a well-known capable girl in the village. However, no matter how capable she is, she is only a fifteen-year-old girl. The eldest and second children are easy to take care of, but the third child is difficult to take care of.

"I feed him goat's milk. The two children are growing up, and my sister-in-law's milk must not be enough. I'm sorry to bother you these days."

Su's milk was not enough, but fortunately she was pregnant with a girl and ate less, so Han Heming sent her half a pig. Han Ming cooked pork bone soup for her every day and gave her meat, so her milk was barely enough for the two children.

"Can goat milk be given to children?"

Su had never heard of this statement and was very curious.

"It's drinkable. Lambs can drink it, so why can't people drink it? Just boil the lamb and let it cool down before giving it to the child. The nutrition is the same."

Didn’t the wealthy family in our town come to our village to buy ewes? They bought them back to give to their young masters to drink.”
