Chapter 256: Double Happiness in

After the new courtyard is built, the kang needs to be heated for several days in a row to dry out the moisture in the earthen kang and walls before people can live in it.

During these few days, the breeding farm has been almost completed with the help of the villagers.

The animals were not so particular. As soon as the barn was completed, even before the grass was laid inside, the roe deer, golden-haired deer and other poultry spontaneously crawled in. Jiang Weiqun was very satisfied with this and that night she specially slaughtered two golden-haired deer and a roe deer as a reward for everyone.

Even Erhan, who didn’t help at all and was just used as a mascot and was taken to the farm from time to time to scare the wild animals inside, got a whole little yellow-haired cat.

After several months of getting along, the villagers of Tuanjietun and Erhan have become very familiar with each other. Everyone was eating enthusiastically around the table. Erhan was lying on the side with his head resting on the little yellow-haired kid, chewing the food noisily. The three small medals hanging around his neck jingled with his movements, and the style seemed extremely harmonious amid the laughter and celebrations of the people at the nearby tables.

After being offered a few glasses of juice by the villagers, Jiang Weiqun glanced at Erhan standing beside her out of habit.

For some reason, Erhan has not been as slow in eating as before recently, and the key is that he doesn’t chew his food much. For this reason, she specifically talked to Dai Song about it, but Dai Song said that this is normal. Erhan eating meat without chewing is actually the same as people eating mushy noodles without chewing.

But even so, Jiang Weiqun still felt a little worried.

Seeing the fat bear, which already weighed 450 kilograms, swallowing the meat piece by piece without stopping, she would always pat the fat bear’s big head to remind it to eat slowly, and after that she would not forget to give it some cereals such as porridge to eat.

As a result, after every meal, Erhan’s belly would be swollen like a balloon.

“Sister Wei Qin, aren’t you afraid that Er Han’s belly will burst~”

“Look at it! It’s lying there, with the fat on its belly spreading out from its ribs!”

“Haha, what are you afraid of? Aunt Jiang always feeds them this way. That’s how we have to feed them. Only then will Erhan and the livestock in the farm grow faster.”

“Won’t Erhan be so fat that he can’t even walk in half a year?”

“No, doesn’t Songzi or Baizi take it for a stroll in the mountains every day? After running around the ditch, Erhan’s stomach is full.”

“Hey, so amazing, can you digest all the food in your stomach by just running around?”

“Of course not. Erhan is a big bear…”

The villagers were eating with their mouths full of oil and were chatting around Jiang Weiqun when Dai Song came over with a gun.

Fat Bear’s little ears twitched, and he recognized Dai Song’s footsteps. He immediately struggled to get up, and then shook all the hair on his body. Visible dust and broken hair suddenly floated in the air around him, making the eyes of the old women nearby light up.

It’s not that Erhan’s shiny fur in the sun is so eye-catching, but those scattered bear hairs are all good things in the eyes of the villagers.

Anyone who had children would try their best to come to Jiang Weiqun to ask for bear hair.

Just take a small handful, tie them together with a red string, and stuff them into a bullet shell, and it will become the most effective amulet for children.

“Huh! Hum!” Fat Bear swung his big belly and jumped to Dai Song’s side, constantly pushing his head against Dai Song’s butt.

“Songzi, hurry up, we have to accompany your sister-in-law to the town for a check-up today!” Jiang Weiqun slapped her thigh and reminded loudly. Tang Liping was already pregnant at this time. Jiang Weiqun cared about her daughter-in-law, so she arranged to take her to the town health center for a pregnancy check-up.

“Look, it’s in a hurry to walk up the mountain to digest its food!”

“It’s true, Erhan is really smart…”

The two old ladies watched Erhan and Daisong’s departing backs, chatting idly, completely unaware that other people had picked up all the bear hair scattered on the ground while they were not paying attention.

On the way to Gouzi Mountain, Erhan staggered, looking back every few steps to urge Dai Song.

At this moment, there was only a thin layer of snow left on Gouzi Mountain. Erhan’s walking on the snow was completely different from before. He had to wade through the snow with great effort. In addition, as he walked up the hill step by step, even though he had just eaten and his stomach was full, he walked very fast along the way.

Dai Song knew what was in Erhan’s head, so he grinned, slowed down his pace, and followed leisurely behind him.

Every time he saw Dai Song like this, Erhan would get so anxious that he would sigh and run behind Dai Song, put his head under Dai Song, and run up the mountain with Dai Song on his shoulders.

They went all the way to Dicangzi, Dai Song patted Erhan, and immediately jumped off the fat bear.

The fat bear blew his lips “Pululu”, rolled his eyes at Dai Song, then rushed to the warehouse without looking back and shouted at the warehouse that was getting deeper and deeper.

The roar of the bear shook the mountain.

Dai Song only felt the ground shaking, and all the birds in the surrounding woods were startled.

“Ouch~~”

Soon a series of childish cries came from the basement, and then two little heads, one gray and one black, poked out of the hole. Seeing that there was a chubby adult bear at the entrance of the hole, the two little guys immediately rushed towards Erhan, howling and scratching Erhan’s face with their front paws, and licking the hair on Erhan’s face with their little tongues.

After the two little wolves came out of the cave, the black wolf followed closely, then the mother wolf, and the rest of the wolves came out of the cave one after another.

“Hum~hum~”

Looking at the two chubby little wolf cubs in front of him, Erhan raised his head slightly.

The two little wolves felt their front paws were empty and immediately fell to the ground. Then, the two little guys quickly backed away and squatted on the ground obediently, waiting for the adult bear in front of them to spit out food for them.

“Hum~Gu——”

Erhan thought for a while and then vomited like a fountain. The cooked yellow-haired meat and the mushy noodles quickly piled up higher than the wolf cub.

The two little wolf cubs licked their lips frantically, and their tails were sweeping behind them like brooms.

The two of them looked eagerly at the black wolf sitting beside them. The black wolf raised its head slightly. The two little guys immediately howled and dived into the pile of food that Erhan had regurgitated, eating it with such relish.

The little wolves have just been weaned, and eating raw meat is far inferior to the cooked food that Erhan brought for them. Firstly, it is high in calories, and secondly, cooked food is easier to digest and absorb.

Seeing the little wolf eating happily, Erhan lay down beside the mother wolf with his head close to it. The mother wolf would then gently lick Erhan’s head, and soon the short hair on his head was wet.

After feeding the little wolf, Erhan urged Dai Song to go down the mountain, with no intention of going up the mountain to see the big mother bear.

When Dai Song saw Erhan like this, he couldn’t help but grin.

After the Chinese New Year, Erhan was two years old. Although he grew faster than human bears of the same age, bears still have to be four years old to reach adulthood.

As for the mother bear, without her cubs, she started circling as soon as spring came.

The silly little Erhan didn’t know what was going to happen to him at the time, and he wanted to go up and have some affection with the big mother bear. As a result, he was immediately pushed down the hillside by the big mother bear’s buttocks.

At first Erhan thought that the big she bear was playing with him, so he tried hard to adapt to the rhythm of the big she bear, but he found that the big she bear was too violent.

Not only was it trying its best, but it was also walking very fast. It was completely unable to keep up with the other bear and was soon pushed by the big mother bear and forced into a big rock.

Being pushed against the rock by the mother bear, Xiao Erhan kicked his four paws hard, and their scrapes against the rock wall made a series of rustling noises.

But the big mother bear had already lost her mind at this time, so how could she let Erhan go? She immediately exerted her strength again and pushed the fat bear against the stone. After a while of friction, she returned to the tree nest contentedly.

From then on, although Dai Song explained the reason to Erhan and it was normal for the mother bear to behave like this recently, Fat Bear became cautious every time he went to the tree den. After being taken advantage of by the mother bear twice, he began to go to the tree den less frequently, and even if he went, he would just take a look from a distance and leave.

Rushing all the way back to Tuanjietun, everyone except Dai Laohan and Dai Xiaoqian had already boarded Wang Tudouzi’s tractor.

Erhan pouted his lips and squinted his eyes as if thinking. After a while, he also raised his big butt and tried to crawl into the back of the tractor, but was pushed and shoved out of the back of the tractor by a group of people.

It sat down on the ground and saw the tractor suddenly start to move.

On the truck bed, Jiang Weiqin kept waving at it.

“Go back to the house and tell Xiao Han to come! We are going to the town clinic for a checkup! They all require needles!
If they want to give you an injection, we won’t be able to stop them!” Jiang Weiqin began to scare Erhan with the same trick she used to scare children.

“call!”

Erhan was so frightened that his fat body trembled.

It remembered how Dai Song used that long, sharp thing to suture the wound of the big female bear. It felt painful watching the thing piercing the flesh. When it thought of a group of people stabbing it with that thing, Erhan howled and climbed over the wall of old Dai’s house.

Immediately afterwards, two muffled sounds, “bang” and “bang”, were heard in the yard.

Xiao Erhan must have opened the door and rushed in after landing.

Hearing the muffled sound, everyone in the truck felt relieved. The tractor drove steadily on the road, and everyone in the truck chatted casually.

Everyone seemed to be deliberately avoiding telling the purpose of going to the town clinic, as if they were afraid of disturbing something and thus changing the outcome.

Jiang Weiqun blinked her eyes and deliberately mentioned her own mountain farm where the number of livestock was increasing.

“Song, in a dozen days or so, those female roe deer will probably…” Jiang Weiqin realized that she had almost let the cat out of the bag when she opened her mouth. She quickly looked at her eldest daughter-in-law’s belly and immediately changed her words, “I mean, we already have enough roe deer and yellow-haired roe in our farm. Next time we go up the mountain, let’s see if there are any other animals we can catch. Let’s try something different.”

“Mom, do you think the mountains outside are a vegetable market and you can just walk around casually?” Dai Bai, who now had some experience in hunting, immediately retorted.

“Isn’t it just a casual stroll?” Jiang Weiqin was not angry. “With your brother, Erhan and Huagu, we are on the mountain. Are you afraid that we won’t be able to find the animals?”

Dai Bo grinned, and found that the truth seemed to be just as what the old lady said, while Jiang Weiqin continued,

“I’m just giving you a suggestion. Last time, Li Xiangwen came and told you that the animals in the mountains have a high economic value. If we keep focusing on these worthless things, we won’t be able to keep up with the pace of our development!
Song, please be careful next time you go up the mountain.

If you come across anything else, like a badger, a red dog, a gray dog, or a wild rabbit, as long as you can catch it alive, you can bring it back and give it to mom to raise. I guarantee that I will raise it well! “

Dai Bai’s mouth almost reached his shoulders when he heard this, thinking that it was easy for him to talk without any pain in his waist. But Dai Song beside him hissed and patted Dai Bai, “Brother, do you remember the water rat skin that Lao Li Pao wore when we went to the border last time?”

“Yeah, remember!” Dai Bo’s eyes sparkled with excitement, but his expression was a little cautious.

“Brother, you don’t want to catch water rats and raise them as animals, do you?

It’s too far to go there, and it takes more than ten days to go back and forth. It’s not like catching them in the mountains where you can drag them back and settle them down on the same day.

It would be a shame if we caught him and then he died on the way!”

Hearing what Dai Bo said, the others also looked disapproving. The little girl hugged Dai Song’s neck tightly, fearing that he would be gone for several days again. But Dai Song smiled and shook his head.
“Brother, I only said I wanted to catch water rats, but I didn’t say I wanted to go to the border.

I’ve thought about it. If there’s water rats in the Heijiang River, there’s probably also water systems related to the Heijiang River. Brother, you know a lot about the rivers in our area. When the time comes, let’s go to the nearest Heijiang River system first!”

Not only Dai Bai, but everyone else’s eyes lit up when they heard it. When the little girl heard that they were close to home, the worry in her eyes disappeared. She blinked her eyes, snuggled quietly in Dai Song’s arms, watching everything in the town around her.

The tractor soon stopped in front of the clinic.

The Dai family got off the truck in a large group.

With the previous two experiences, plus the publicity in the town over the past six months, Dai Song has become quite famous.

As soon as he entered the clinic, the free doctor immediately came out from behind the counter, ran up to Dai Song and greeted him warmly.

When the doctor learned that Mrs. Dai Song needed a pregnancy check-up, he immediately took Tang Liping to the back clinic.

Perhaps because there were wolves in the forest before, in order to meet the demand, a lot of medical equipment was added to the clinic.

Dai Song was bored waiting outside the clinic, so he chatted with the doctors around him about these devices. The doctors said that these were all proposed by the new leader, who was said to be from our town before, and his surname seemed to be Guan…

Upon hearing this, all the Dai family members outside the clinic, except Dai Bai and the confused Xiao Yingying, showed mysterious smiles on their faces.

Dai Bai stared at the clock, watching the second hand move forward one second at a time, and couldn’t help but sweat on his forehead due to nervousness. Jiang Weiqun also became flustered when she saw how nervous he was.

Even though Dai Song called a doctor and was told after asking that the examination with the new equipment was indeed time-consuming, their nervous expressions did not ease.

“It’s been five minutes. He’s been in there for five minutes. Why hasn’t he come out yet?”

“Brother, don’t be anxious. It takes five minutes to go to the toilet. It will take a little longer for my sister-in-law to check in, right?”

“Oh, why is it so slow? Why is it taking so long? I’m getting so anxious waiting…”

“Mom, why are you so anxious? Let’s just wait and see if it’s a boy or a girl, right?”

“Brother Song, my sister-in-law should be doing well in there, right?”

“The appointment went smoothly, so let’s wait patiently.”

……

Just as Dai Song was outside calming the anxiety of the Dai family, the door of the clinic opened quietly. Under the expectant gaze of everyone, Tang Liping walked out with a look of surprise on her face.

“Liping! What did the doctor say?”

“young married woman?!”

“sister in law?”

Tang Liping smiled sweetly and did not directly answer everyone’s questions. Instead, she took Nan Chunwan’s hand and returned to the clinic amid everyone’s puzzled gazes.

Now it was Dai Song’s turn to be nervous. “What’s going on? Why did my sister-in-law bring my wife in?”

“Brother, have you done anything good recently?”

“Old man, is Xiaowan pregnant too?”

“I don’t know. Xiaowan never told me…”

Dai Song stood at the foot of the wall, staring at the clock ticking away. One minute seemed as long as a year. Although Dai Bo felt calm watching from the side, he was tongue-tied and didn’t know how to comfort his brother. He could only stand there and wait.

A few minutes later, when the door of the clinic opened, Jiang Weiqun, Dai Bai and Dai Song rushed to the door of the clinic like javelins.

The two sisters-in-law held each other’s arms and walked out of the clinic with a smile.

Jiang Weiqin immediately held the hands of her two daughters-in-law.
“How are you, Liping, Xiaowan? What’s going on with you two? Tell mom quickly!”

Tang Liping smiled, and this smile seemed to unload the burden of many years. Jiang Weiqin felt relieved immediately.
“Mom, it’s confirmed, it’s a boy~”

“Ah!!” Dai Bo, who was standing by, jumped up and was immediately glared at by the doctors around him.

Then, Jiang Weiqin looked at Nan Chunwan again, the eagerness on her face not diminishing at all.

“What about you, Xiaowan?”

Nan Chunwan smiled and looked at her daughter who was hugging Dai Song’s neck and blinking her big eyes.

“Yingying, next year you will have a brother or sister~”
