Da Lang Er Lang! Open the door, I'm the aunt, have you eaten? I steamed some brown rice steamed buns, come out and get them!

The door of the house slowly opened, and seeing Sanlang and Siniang crying, Sister-in-law He asked in surprise:

Why are you two crying? Am I late and hungry?

With that said, he quickly took out the brown rice steamed buns covered with gauze from the basket and handed them to the two children, and then said to Dalang and Erlang:

I don't know when the third child will come back. If you want to eat in the next few days, come to the old house. She left me some copper coins to buy food and asked me to take care of the food of the four of you.

Dalang raised his head in shock, She left you money?

Didn't you leave them and run away secretly?

Sister-in-law He nodded and looked at the twins munching on the buns and forgetting to cry. She muttered angrily:

You stepmother and your father are both very virtuous. Their skin is thicker than the rammed earth under the city wall. I only have a few copper coins left. I don't know how many coins I will need to deal with your four mouths.

I've been gone for four days now, and I don't know how long I have to wait before I come back. It's so easy to get into the mountains. If she, a weak woman, is...

At this point, she realized that the four children were staring at her with wide eyes, as if she was going to bite their stepmother if she dared to say anything bad about them. Mrs. He hurriedly stopped talking.

She clicked, stuffed the remaining two steamed buns in the basket to Da Lang and Er Lang, and warned again: Come to the old house for dinner sooner or later. I don't have time to give them to you every day. There is a lot of work at home.

He muttered again in a low voice, I'm still protecting her, and then quickly left with the empty basket in his arms.

There was really a lot of work to be done at home, and she was so busy that she almost forgot about the four mouths in the third child's house, and that's why she was late.

As soon as Sister-in-law He left, the four brothers and sisters, who had looked sad just now, immediately put on smiling faces and gnawed on the warm brown rice steamed buns in their hands, thinking to themselves that the stepmother did not abandon them, and she even asked the aunt to take care of them. Woolen cloth.

Brother, she will definitely come back with a prey. Erlang looked at the clear blue sky, which made people feel infinite longing in their hearts. He said firmly: She is so strong, she can definitely do it.

Yeah. Dalang raised his eyes and looked at the endless rolling hills to the north, with the corners of his mouth raised.

Eat quickly. After eating, boil water and wipe your face. It's so dirty. Dalang urged his younger brother and sister.

The three little cats were grinning at him. They had lit a fire in the house earlier and their faces were covered in black smoke, just like tabby cats.

Si Niang was the first to finish eating, and then sat obediently on the threshold, waiting for her brothers to boil the water, and was the first to wash her face.

The little girl raised her feet and raised her little face so that her elder brother could wipe it clean, and muttered:

My grandma likes a clean and good baby the most. Si Niang listens to her and be a clean and good baby.

The elder man cleaned up the two younger ones and drove them to the bed to nest in so as not to catch the cold.

Although the weather is sunny, it's still a bit cold outside.

After cleaning themselves up, they saw that the open-air stove was stained by rain and fallen leaves. Dalang and Erlang silently picked up the broom and started cleaning the house.

In the past, no one taught them about hygiene, so they were all dirty.

But now someone tells them that they should rinse their mouth and face in the morning and evening, wash their feet before going to bed, wipe the eating bowl every time, and keep the stove clean so that they will not get sick from eating.

She also taught them how to weave straw rope, and she would explain it to them when something new came up.

It was also from her mouth that they learned that taro was not a terrible poison, but a life-saving food.

She is like the backbone of the family, and they feel at ease when she is around.

Dalang stopped cleaning, and was surprised to find that his stepmother had only been here for a few days, and he was already thinking of relying on her.

He didn't even think about his biological father who was taken away.

For a moment, he thought, if only life could go on like this.

It would be nice if that man didn't come back.

Brother? Erlang called his brother. I don't know why he was stunned. He called him several times but there was no response.

Are you thinking about your stepmother too? Erlang asked a little awkwardly.

Dalang came back to his senses and nodded casually. He was afraid that his dark thoughts would be discovered by his younger brother.

Immediately, my heart was filled with self-blame, feeling that I was very unfilial and should not have these thoughts.

Erlang whispered: I don't know how my stepmother is doing now.

The setting sun dyed the whole sky red, and Dalang glanced towards Beishan again.

Ah sneeze!

Qin Yao, who was riding on the tree, couldn't control it and sneezed hard.

The knife in her hand trembled so much that she was almost slapped down by the black bear who stood up.

Fortunately, the fighting instinct she had trained in the apocalypse was still there. The moment the bear's paw swung over, her body immediately made a subconscious evasive movement.

But just during this hiding, the black bear that she had been keeping under the tree suddenly jumped up into the tree. One person and one bear stood on a tree branch, looking at each other with a distance of less than two meters.

Qin Yao didn't hesitate for a moment, took out the arrow, drew the bow, and quickly shot an arrow!

They say shooters can't fight in close combat, because they just don't train fast enough.

The mutated animals and plants in the apocalypse don't care about your distance. They will suddenly appear in front of you when you least expect it.

In the case of a shortage of ammunition, Qin Yao practiced a close bow. Although the power was not as powerful as long-range shooting, it was still enough to resist the enemy's advance.

And when the enemy you face is a human, this close-range bow often catches the opponent off guard.

An arrow from close range hit the black bear without any surprise.

However, it was not very powerful. It only scratched its fur, but made it even more furious. It roared and rushed towards Qin Yao.

Qin Yao had been waiting for the opportunity to lure the black bear to appear. Finally, the rain stopped and the trap was set. The black bear did appear as expected.

Unexpectedly, it was not lassoed. Not only was it not lassoed, but after seeing Qin Yao, it seemed that it felt her strong aura, turned around and ran away, without falling into the trap she had set.

Of course, Qin Yao couldn't just watch the black bear that she had finally seduced run away, so she immediately shot an arrow and hit it in the butt, successfully irritating the black bear and turning around to kill her.

In this way, one person and one bear went back and forth for more than ten rounds in this not-so-dense forest.

When the black bear swooped over, Qin Yao had already put on a sharpened short knife. Behind him was the most fragile part of the branch, which could not bear the weight of a person.

She cannot retreat, nor will she retreat!

Turn sideways, bend your knees, raise the knife with 90% of your strength, aim at the only white belly of the black bear, and give it a sharp blow!

Ho ho ho!!!

A fierce roar that shook half the mountain range rang out. The black bear, which was so murderous just a moment ago, fell from the four-meter-high tree branch in the blink of an eye, making a muffled bang sound.

Qin Yao hooked a branch with one hand and held a bloody knife in the other. She jumped from the branch and stabbed the black bear lying on the ground writhing in pain with her whole body weight.

After a short wailing, half of the hilt of a knife appeared on the black bear's neck. The knife was inserted deeply into its throat, and blood overflowed from the back of its head, soaking the black soil beneath it.

The black bear breathed his last unwillingly.

Qin Yao, who was kneeling on the black bear, pulled out the knife and raised her hand to wipe the hot bear blood on her face as usual. He lowered his eyes and looked at the tragically dead black bear beneath him, with the corners of his mouth raised crazily!

With it, this winter should be fine.
