"Shhh..."

Jiang Miaomiao opened her eyes.

Then she saw her second brother, Jiang Ziyan, holding paper and pen, drawing something on the side.

I saw her wake up.

The second brother put down his pen and showed Jiang Miaomiao the drawing he had just made.

"Little sister, does she look like you?"

Jiang Miaomiao: ......

Second brother's question is really true. She has never looked in a mirror, so how would she know what she looks like?

My eyes were involuntarily drawn to the baby in the painting.

Although it is a black and white ink painting.

The baby in the drawing is really cute!

Her chubby little face, big round eyes with curled eyelashes, upturned little nose, and a touch of vermilion on her little mouth, making it all red.

Is this really her?

My second brother's drawing skills are really good; he can draw her so vividly at such a young age.

Beautiful... beautiful...

Jiang Miaomiao waved her little hands and babbled.

"You like it, don't you? Your brother will draw one for you every year."

Sure...of course!

Since there were no cameras in ancient times, drawing was a very good way to record things.

When I'm old, I can look back on it.

Jiang Ziyan took out a wooden box, rolled up the painting, and carefully put it away.

The room gradually warmed up.

The older brother brought over a bowl of warmed goat milk.

Jiang Miaomiao only remembered that she needed to nurse now; she was hungry and couldn't wait any longer.

I want to eat... I want to eat...

With her little mouth pouting, she hummed softly.

He waved his arms and legs.

She will start crying loudly if she is not fed milk in the next moment.

Drinking goat milk when you're hungry is really not as satisfying as suckling your mother's breast milk.

The supply couldn't keep up with the demand, even when it was just spoonful by spoonful.

A series of hurried footsteps came from outside the door, the steps quick and steady.

It's Mother, Mother is back.

Jiang Miaomiao felt that her five senses were getting better and better as time went by.

My older brother left the door open when we got back, but my mother just pushed it open and came in.

Looking at her daughter grinning at her, with white goat milk still on her lips.

Lu Qingyao put down her basket and went inside to change her clothes and wash up.

Only then did he come out to hug his daughter.

Jiang Miaomiao stared intently at the small basket on the ground, which was covered with some medicinal herbs on one side and had a few bamboo shoots stuck in the other.

Faint cries could be heard coming from beneath the herbs.

The sound was so faint it was almost imperceptible.

My mother would also hunt pheasants and rabbits, and hide them under the medicinal herbs, just like before.

Jiang Miaomiao didn't think much of it and her gaze drifted to the bamboo shoots.

Wow!

Plump, big and fat winter bamboo shoots.

Looks like the brothers will have a nice meal tonight.

Although Jiang Miaomiao can only drink milk, judging from the way her older brothers eat more and more and enjoy their meals more and more.

My mother's cooking skills have improved significantly.

I'm really looking forward to my teeth coming in...

“Feng’er, Yan’er, Mother has found a little wolf cub. Take it out and feed it some goat milk.”

Lu Qingyao picked up the baby and kissed him, while giving instructions to her son.

She ran all the way back, afraid that the little wolf cub might have starved to death on the way.

"Wolf cub?"

The two brothers quickly gathered around the basket.

Picking up the herbs covering my head, I saw a white, fuzzy thing wriggling around.

A wolf cub whose eyes haven't opened yet.

It was all white and soft.

At first glance, it looks like a newborn puppy, with no trace of a wolf.

Jiang Zifeng excitedly picked it up, "Mom, the little wolf cub is so cute, just as cute as my little sister."

Jiang Miaomiao: ......

The older brother is actually quite smart.

But the things he often says, coupled with his physique, always make him seem a bit silly.

Lu Qingyao glanced at him.

"How can you praise someone like that? Luckily your sister is too young to understand, otherwise she would definitely get angry with you."

Xiao Miaomiao waved her fist and rolled her eyes at her older brother.

I'm getting impatient with you right now...

"Mother, I was wrong!"

Jiang Zifeng stuck out her tongue.

He didn't actually know what he had done wrong.

Jiang Ziyan grinned and squeezed a bowl of goat milk over, and the two of them began to tend to the little wolf.

Jiang Miaomiao was a little unhappy; she felt that her position in the family was in jeopardy.

The wolf even stole her food.

After feeding the wolf, the second brother put it in the small wooden tub where he used to sleep before washing his hands and coming over.

Mother went to cook.

The eldest brother was chopping the firewood he had carried back.

Jiang Miaomiao fell into her second brother's arms again and fell asleep in his arms once more.

When I opened my eyes again, I was woken up by a series of loud, boisterous voices.

My aunt came again.

Holding two pieces of paper in his hand, he said, "Sister-in-law, this is your land deed. I've brought it back for you."

"And land deeds?"

Lu Qingyao came out with a spatula in her hand.

She thought that Jiang Yunze had nothing left in his hometown except this dilapidated house.

There are even land deeds!

"Not much. It was mortgaged to the Liu family by Miao Miao's father before he went to take the exam. I brought it back today." Liu Yuniang handed Jiang Tianqi to her with a smile.

I casually pulled up a stool and sat down, only then did I see the white clump in the small wooden basin.

His face was full of disdain.

He reached out and flipped through them, then picked one up and looked at it again.

"Where did this puppy come from? Its eyes aren't even open yet. Can it even survive?"

“It’s not a dog, it’s a wolf.” Jiang Zifeng stared warily at his aunt.

They were afraid of hurting the little wolf cub.

"Wolf……"

Liu Yuniang was startled and let go of the wolf cub she was holding.

Then Jiang Miaomiao watched as the wolf cub fell down...

She closed her eyes.

It's so small, it fell down.

Even if you don't die from the fall, it must hurt a lot.

She remembered that when she was just born, she almost fell to her death from a tree.

Separated from its birth mother at birth, it is quite similar to the little wolf.

When I opened my eyes again, I saw the little wolf cub in my older brother's hands.

Jiang Miaomiao's heart, which had been clenched with anxiety, finally calmed down.

"Aunt, be careful, you'll die if you fall like that..." Jiang Zifeng pouted, looking very displeased.

Liu Yuru awkwardly withdrew her hand.

She didn't mean it either.

Which woman or child in the village isn't afraid of wolves? There used to be a famine in the village.

When the wolves in the mountains ran out of food, they came to the village and stole children and chickens when the adults weren't looking.

During that period, no one dared to go out after dark.

Not to mention raising wolves.

"Sister-in-law, how could you raise this thing, especially a white one... I've never heard of a white wolf." Liu Yuniang looked at it from afar, not daring to approach.

Even a wolf cub with its eyes still closed left her with lingering fear.

There are some things that are inherently feared, and there's nothing you can do about it.

Lu Qingyao smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, wolves are intelligent, just like dogs. They grow up around people and won't hurt people randomly."

She was also startled; she was worried that the person she had managed to save might have died from the fall.

Liu Yuniang clicked her tongue. "Sister-in-law, you'd better think this through. Wolf cubs eat meat. Let's not even talk about what they'll eat when they grow teeth. Right now, they're going to steal a lot of food from Miaomiao."

Without a doubt, her sister-in-law must have been feeding it goat milk.

Goat's milk was a rare commodity in the village, yet she was willing to feed it to the wolves...

People can't even get enough to eat, yet they're feeding wolves.

She's a young lady from a wealthy family; she hasn't had enough of a hard life.

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

Yes, wolves eat meat.

Lu Qingyao has plenty of breast milk now, so feeding her goat milk for a few days won't be a problem.

You can eat meat...

Jiang Miaomiao opened her mouth wide, drool dripping from her lips.

Thinking of the little wolf who shared her plight, she let it starve to death.

Some... I just can't bear it...
