Chapter 324 Big Black Hawk’s New Little Brother

The eldest son and his wife also came back, which made mother Meng Yulan even happier.

It was just past four o’clock and they started preparing dinner, stewing the meat, chopping the stuffing and making dumplings. The whole time, sister-in-law Chen Hong followed her mother-in-law in the kitchen, looking capable and down-to-earth.

You know, my eldest sister-in-law has been married for a year and a half. When she went home with my eldest brother before, she never cooked and she wouldn’t even clean the table after dinner.

Yue Feng knew what was going on, but he never mentioned it. After entering the house, he greeted his eldest brother in a familiar manner.

“Big brother!”

“Hey! Xiaofeng is back!! How are you doing recently? Is everything going well with the hunting team up the mountain?” Yue Shan asked his brother with concern.

“It’s okay, everything is fine! Um, come with me to the west room, I got some things for you, don’t forget to bring them back when you go back!” Yue Feng said.

“What?”

“Just come on, I can’t cheat you!”

“Oh, Dad, I’ll go over first!”

Soon, Yue Feng took his elder brother back to the west room where he slept, and Yue Feng took out a large wine barrel from the top of the kang.

“What’s the matter?”

“The medicinal wine I told you about last time, made with the three-piece deer suit! I gave half of it away to someone else. He drank it and it had a very obvious effect!

You can take the remaining half with you, two liang a day, no spicy food, drink it for a week and stop for a week, and don’t have sex during this period!” Yue Feng said solemnly.

“This thing…I…I’m fine!!!”

When the eldest brother heard what his second brother said, he was somewhat embarrassed to emphasize that there was nothing wrong with him.

Is there a problem? How could Yue Feng, who has the rebirth cheat, not know that in the previous life, the eldest brother and sister-in-law were married for many years but had no children. Later, they drank this stuff to regulate their health before they had their nephew.

The reason why the eldest brother has a low status in his family has a lot to do with his weak backbone.

In itself, the labor intensity of working in a coal mine is much greater than those light jobs, so physical fitness will naturally be affected a little.

People who are more traditional avoid going to the doctor and say that they are not in a hurry to have children and that work is their priority. This is just an excuse, and anyone with a discerning eye can see it.

Yue Feng said calmly: “Let’s not worry about whether it’s your problem or not. If it’s your problem, you’ll see better results after drinking it. If it’s not your problem, there’s no harm in drinking it! Why are you so resistant to these things!
The three-piece set of stag in this bottle was caught by me in the mountains. I didn’t spend any money. The wine is just ordinary grain wine, and the cost is not even a few cents. I asked you to try it, so you can try it! It’s not like you don’t know how to drink!
We didn’t talk in front of other people, we were just chatting privately between the two of us, and I wanted to say a few more words to you, brother.

If a man wants to speak confidently at home, he must have a strong back! If he doesn’t have a strong back, he will always be inferior to others!
Our family’s life has improved. My sister-in-law has seen it and has changed her attitude towards our family. Can’t you give it a try?
You are the eldest in the family. You have taken good care of your health and taken care of everything. It is your responsibility to let our parents have a grandchild as soon as possible. You can’t expect me, the second oldest who just got engaged, to do that!”

When Yue Feng spoke these words in a low voice, his elder brother Yue Shan, who had been trying to refuse just now, was slightly stunned and paused for a few seconds.

The second brother’s words touched Yue Shan’s heart. If you don’t have a strong backbone, you really have no human rights at home! If it weren’t for the second brother’s hard work and making the family’s life better and better, Yue Shan’s status in the small family in the city would still not be improved.

“Okay! Then I’ll listen to you! Try drinking it for a month!” Yue Shan nodded and agreed.

“Remember what I told you about avoiding certain foods and having sex! It won’t be any use if you let it out too early! The half bottle I gave to my friend, the feedback was very good. Except for the first few days when they had a lot of thoughts to hold back, it became more and more stable as time went on!” Yue Feng continued to mutter.

“You haven’t gotten married yet, but you know a lot!!” Yue Shan looked at his brother with some strangeness.

“Uncle Li told me! Just listen to what he told you. We’ve only made this barrel of wine this year. If you want to make something else after you finish drinking it, it will be next winter! Don’t take it lightly!”

“Okay!” Yue Shan nodded and agreed.

“Okay, go back to the East Room. You guys don’t come back often, and our dad misses you. Go and talk to him for a while!”

“Ok!”

After a very simple conversation, Yue Shan went back to the east room. Yue Feng did not follow him, but stared at Bai Mao, who was squatting on the falcon stand with his hat on, in a daze.

After a period of careful care, it is certain that this white gyrfalcon will not die. The wound on its back has scabbed over, and it is eating with its hat on every day, and its performance is becoming more and more stable.

The eagle was in the recovery period of trauma, so Yue Feng did not consciously continue to pinch its food to reduce its weight. This caused Bai Mao to always have a bad temper. Apart from the conditioned reflex of knowing to eat when hearing the whistle, Yue Feng did not train it in any other subjects.

Since he had nothing to do, Yue Feng put on the gloves for some reason.

After closing the door and grasping the five-foot-long rope tied to Bai Mao, Yue Feng took the meat and took off Bai Mao’s hat for the first time.

Bai Mao, who had been in darkness for a long time, saw the faint light again. It was already evening, and there was no light in the house, so the light was a little dim and he needed some time to get used to it.

After seeing clearly that he was squatting on Yue Feng’s hand, Bai Mao immediately opened his mouth and drooped his wings, showing a state of obvious fear.

Yue Feng held the eagle motionlessly, slowly paying attention to Bai Mao’s reaction.

After the other party’s body movements eased a little, Yue Feng blew the whistle to feed him.

The moment the whistle was heard, the big black eagle on the nearby falconry responded immediately, putting on its hat and jumping from its falconry onto the kang.

After seeing the outline of the big black eagle, the white gyrfalcon shrank its neck and immediately squatted in Yue Feng’s hand, not daring to move.

The big black eagle had been fed in the morning. It jumped down when it heard the whistle not because it was hungry, but just responding to its owner’s call.

Bai Mao must have been beaten into submission by the big Black Hawk, and his fear was clearly shown in his body movements.

“Okay, be good. I’m not calling you when I whistle! It has nothing to do with you, just squat quietly!” Yue Feng helped the big black eagle onto the falconer with his other hand, touched its fur, and said a few soothing words. The big black eagle soon calmed down.

After calming down for two minutes, Yue Feng picked up a piece of meat and blew the whistle again, trying to feed the white spear indoors, but the big black eagle jumped down again.

This made Yue Feng very angry. It was a good thing for the eagle to listen to the whistle, but it was not right to give it negative feedback.

After a brief thought, Yue Feng helped the big black eagle onto the falconer and took off the hat he had put on it. When it saw the light and could see things clearly, with the intelligence of the big black eagle, it should be able to know that whistling is not calling it.

As soon as the hat was taken off, the big Black Eagle saw that the white spear next to him had also taken off his hat. The feathers on his neck immediately stood up and he lowered his head, as if he was eager to fight again if he was not convinced.

Quack, quack, quack!

The big black eagle called out again in a threatening tone.

“Alright, alright! Xiaobai has surrendered after being beaten! Let’s not hit it!! I blew the whistle to feed it!” Yue Feng coaxed it a few more times, and the big black eagle seemed to understand, and its condition eased a lot.

Looking at Xiaobai again, he had no intention of challenging the big black eagle. He shrunk his neck like a frightened quail and didn’t dare to show off at all.

Yue Feng waved a piece of meat in front of Bai Mao and whistled again.

Now, the big black eagle understood what his master meant by blowing the whistle. He had already eaten, and the whistle was to feed the other party!

When Bai Mao heard the whistle, he looked at Yue Feng cautiously, then looked at the big black eagle squatting on the falconer and slowly loosening its feathers. Driven by hunger, he carefully approached the piece of meat and took a bite.

The next second, a scene that surprised Yue Feng appeared.

The white spear holding the meat in its mouth was like a fawning lackey. It did not eat the meat itself, but carefully moved to the side of the falconry where the big black eagle landed, stretched its neck, and wanted to give the meat to the big black eagle.

If two eagles want to work together in the mountains, they must put in some effort to get familiar with each other. However, their beaks are too sharp, so they dare not get too close before they are familiar with each other. If they bite each other during work, the eagle may be crippled!

Based on this consideration, when Yue Feng was holding the white spear, he was at least one meter away from the big black eagle’s falconry. Even if the two eagles lost control and attacked each other, they could not reach each other.

But now, seeing Baimao holding the meat in his mouth like a little brother offering it to his boss, Yue Feng felt that everything he knew about birds of prey in his previous life was completely overturned.

Does it mean that the average IQ of a gyrfalcon is much smarter than other eagles? The black eagle is smart, and this white gyrfalcon looks pretty smart too.

“Big Black Eagle, Xiaobai wants to offer sacrifices to you and recognize you as the boss. After you eat this piece of meat, you can’t bully it anymore!”

Yue Feng muttered something to himself while staring at the movements of the big black hawk, and tentatively moved his arm towards the falconry where the black hawk landed.

This was a high-risk attempt, and Yue Feng was somewhat gambling, but he relied on his sufficient understanding of birds of prey over the years. If he saw any signs of something wrong, he would immediately take evasive action.

Based on Yue Feng’s understanding of the big black eagle’s temperament, it knows what is good and what is bad.

Previously, in order to take the big black eagle and the great blue harrier into the mountains to release them and catch sables, the two eagles had their first close face-to-face contact with each other.

At that time, the Great Green Harrier was extremely frightened. After briefly understanding what its master meant, the Great Black Hawk acted quite calmly and did not make things difficult for this little brother.

Now that the White Spear has contributed its food to ease the situation, the Big Black Hawk will most likely not continue to attack.

Yue Feng actually guessed this.

When the big black eagle saw Bai Mao carefully lower his head and hold the meat to him, he did not make any extreme movements. Instead, he waited for the other party to let go, then calmly stepped on the meat with his claws and ate it bit by bit.

To Yue Feng, this did not feel like filling his stomach, but rather like having afternoon tea, which was quite elegant.

After eating the piece of meat offered by White Spear, the big black eagle puffed out its chest with satisfaction, spread its wings, grabbed the falcon, and suddenly flew away.

Quack, quack, quack!

It flapped its wings and called out, but the tone of its call had changed significantly, as if to say, “I accept you as my little brother!”

“Alright, alright! Big Black Eagle won’t bully you anymore! You can eat the meat too!” Yue Feng consoled, then picked up the second piece of meat and brought it to Bai Mao.

This time, Bai Mao did not continue to feed the meat to the big black eagle. Instead, he stepped on it with his claws and tore it apart and started eating it in big mouthfuls.

It’s quite interesting to say, after Dahei accepted its kindness, this thing behaved obviously more relaxed, eating the sand and half chicken breast provided by Yue Feng in big mouthfuls, and its vigilance and nervous body reactions slowly eased.

After feeding the eagles, Yue Feng did not continue to put the hat on Bai Mao, but put it on his falconry. The two eagles squatted there, staring at each other, and neither of them made any other excessive movements.

This was a scene that Yue Feng was very happy to see. Falcons like kites and eagles would not fight in groups. During normal falconry release, even if they were from the same family, falconers would not release them at the same time to collaborate in hunting.

In the game of releasing a large hawk or a kite, releasing several hawks at the same time is a hunting mistake, which is called releasing a heavy hawk in the jargon.

If a kite or a large eagle accidentally releases a heavy eagle, at best both eagles will fall to the ground and stop working, becoming wary of each other and losing the hunting initiative. In more serious cases, one eagle may not be able to catch the prey and will have to fight with another eagle, and it is not uncommon for one eagle to be injured or even seriously injured.

But falcons are different. They have relatively high IQs and after systematic training and becoming familiar with each other, they can cooperate in hunting. For example, the most representative one is the rabbit-falcon hunting that is popular in the Central Plains.

The specific way to play is to use two or more peregrine falcons and small dogs to hunt rabbits. The fast-flying male peregrine falcon (also called stick falcon) acts as the “sentinel” to intercept and slow down the prey. The slightly slower flying female peregrine falcon (also called rabbit tiger) but with stronger attack power acts as the main attacker. When the opportunity arises, she kicks the rabbit over, and the hunting dog helps to end the battle.

The gyrfalcon is also a falcon, and is smarter than the peregrine falcon. While ensuring safety, let them adapt to each other’s existence. Over time, the relationship will be like that between a dog and an eagle at home. When they go up the mountain, they will not attack each other, but cooperate with each other.

The sooner the two eagles are familiar with each other, the better. If it is too late, even if the eagles are trained, they will have to start from the beginning to complete the process of getting familiar with each other, and the training process will be much longer.

Based on this consideration, Yue Feng took the risk to make this attempt.

Now it seems that the effect is very good. The big black eagle is obviously capable of being a big brother. As long as the younger brothers show submission, it will no longer behave so aggressively.

As for Baimao, when you have nothing to do later, take off his hat and let him get familiar with it for a while. He should be able to find his position in the hunting team.

As for more, Yue Feng did not consider it for the time being. He would first wait for the eagle’s injuries to heal and its feathers to grow back so that it could fly back into the sky. This is a slow process that takes months and there is no point in being impatient.

After playing with the two eagles in the house for a while, Yue Feng took out two pieces of meat and gave Bai Mao a hat-putting exercise. After the other party completed the exercise smartly, both eagles were put on hats.

The mother in the outer room called out to wash hands and eat. Yue Feng put down the eagle in his hand, pushed open the door of the west room and walked out.
