Chapter 151 Educational and entertaining
After killing the wolf, Shen Zhiqiu did not plan to fill the trap. The soil he had dug out was piled up at the door like a small earth mountain. Shen Zhiqiu planned to have everyone tamp down a circle of earth wall.
This winter they lived inside the earthen wall, with bamboo thorn traps outside, so if wild animals came,
Not only do they have to jump over the trap, but they also have to climb over a two-meter-high earth wall. I believe it would be difficult for them to jump in even if another wolf came.
If there wasn't enough time in the day, he would have had it done yesterday.
If the weather is good that day, they can rest assured that the kids are happy to come out and play snowball fights or something.
The bamboo thorns in the trap also need to be rearranged, and the blood-stained snow also needs to be cleared away.
There is really endless work to do since the first day of the Lunar New Year.
I started digging pits on the first day of the Chinese New Year, and hunted wolves in the middle of the night on the second day. Now I have to plan work for the next few days.
My eldest brother-in-law Wang Fuxi was talking while working: "Uncle Li, we have to arrange the training. You don't know, when the wolf pounced on me, I really felt like I was going to see the King of Hell. You teach us a few tricks, so that we can deal with any emergency when we encounter it."
It's not that Li Quan is hiding something, it's mainly because he didn't have time to train everyone before. He could only sleep for a few hours all day, and when he opened his eyes, he had to do various tasks. How could he have the time to train everyone's skills?
In fact, Shen Zhiqiu was really scared. What would happen to her eldest sister if something happened to her eldest brother-in-law? Besides, her eldest brother-in-law was indeed a good man. He was good to his wife and children.
He is loyal and righteous, down-to-earth and hardworking.
"Starting tomorrow, we will train for one hour each in the morning and evening. Uncle Li will teach you some easy-to-use techniques. There is no need to start from standing still like Yoyo did. We don't have the time for that. But the young boys can start by training with Dahu and Erhu."
He also felt that this age was too dangerous, and it would be safer for everyone to have a few hits.
Li Quan was dragging two wolves and was about to hang them on a tree. It would be easier for the hunter Gao to skin them, so he said, "Okay, it's up to you, son-in-law."
Doctor Guo bandaged Erhu's wound. The only one injured this time was Erhu who was distracted while fighting the wolf. The others did not have a single scratch on their skin.
Washing hands warned: "You kid, don't be distracted during a battle next time. Fortunately, the wound is not deep, otherwise, would you still have your arm?"
Erhu scratched his head and said, "I know, Master Guo, I will definitely learn my lesson this time."
Da Hu also scolded: "What's wrong? Are you still asleep? How can you be distracted while fighting a wolf?"
Erhu hesitated and couldn't explain clearly. Fortunately, Wang Fuxi beside him came to his rescue: "This is also my fault. If it wasn't for saving me, this wouldn't have happened."
Da Hu said quickly: "Uncle Wang, this has nothing to do with you. It's all because this kid relied on his ability to fight and underestimated the enemy. Just like what my son-in-law said, carelessness leads to the loss of Jingzhou."
Erhu also quickly nodded to indicate that his elder brother was right. He was injured because he was careless for a moment, and it had nothing to do with whether he saved Uncle Wang or not.
Who says honest people are honest? Haven't you seen that when Erhu is being careless, he is not much worse than Shen Zhiqiu.
But he managed to fool his eldest brother at least. Otherwise, he wouldn't know how to explain it to his eldest brother. He couldn't just tell the truth!
As for the minor injury on his body, he didn't take it seriously at all. With Master Guo bandaging it and disinfecting it with alcohol, the wound would not get inflamed.
At this time, the snowflakes that had just stopped falling in the sky for a short while began to fall again.
Many strong men were learning how to skin wolves from the hunter Gao, and they were working very enthusiastically.
There were also some people who set up stoves to boil water. They just looked for people outside the cave, one by one, and soon their heads were dyed white by the snow.
The red color on the snow that had not been cleaned up was slowly covered.
Shen Zhiqiu asked Hunter Gao: "Uncle Gao, we have almost finished skinning the wolves, let's take down the pot rack. It looks like the snow is going to last a long time."
Hunter Gao skinned more than ten wolves in one breath, panting heavily and saying, "Okay, you decide on the arrangements."
Shen Zhiqiu turned around and gave instructions again. Before the earth wall was compacted, a circle of bamboo poles had to be inserted around the trap to let everyone know where the trap was.
To avoid the danger of our own people falling into the trap, there was a clanging sound outside the cave.
The five large pots in the cave have already started stewing wolf meat. Although the seasoning is insufficient, it is still unknown how it will taste.
But just look at the rosy color and the meaty aroma.
There is so much wolf meat that we can save the pancakes and just cook the meat today. Finally, leave an iron pot to boil water and pour a bowl of kudzu powder on it.
Shen Youyou sat on the kang with a group of kids, staring at the stove, mainly because the smell in the room was too fragrant.
Shen Yuanbao asked Shen Luming: "Lu Lu, did you hear my stomach growling?"
Shen Luming laughed and stared at the stove without blinking, drooling: "Brother, my stomach is growling too."
Shen Youyou took out a piece of clean cotton cloth and wiped the drool of her brothers and sisters. She looked around and stood up to take out the pine nut candy from the pottery jar:
"Hurry up and eat some candy to satisfy your cravings. Look at you all, you are like greedy cats."
The little kids nodded their heads like chickens eating rice: "Yeah, yeah, thank you, Yoyo sister."
Some foods can help to soothe the stomach, especially the sweet pine nut candy. Although my eyes are still attached to the stove and my nose keeps sniffing the aroma of meat wafting from the other side, fortunately my saliva has stopped flowing.
Shen Youyou got out of bed and closed the bamboo door, trying to pretend that she didn't see it.
But she couldn't resist the aroma, so she had to tell stories to the kids.
"Once upon a time there was a shepherd boy who went to the mountains to herd sheep every day. However, herding sheep was too boring, so he wanted to play a trick on everyone to have fun. He shouted to the farmers in the fields in the distance: The wolf is coming! The wolf is coming! Help!
When the farmers heard the people running up the mountain in a hurry with hoes and sickles in their hands, they also ran while shouting, "Don't be afraid, kid, we are here to save you."
The farmers ran up the mountain panting and saw that there was no wolf at all. They thought that the little boy was just tricking them for fun, so they left in anger.
The next day, the shepherd boy used the same trick again... What did you learn from this story?"
The little kids were finally distracted from the stewed meat by Shen Youyou's story, and they raised their hands and shouted.
There is a saying: "Don't cry wolf before the wolf comes."
This is a young kid who doesn't even know what lying means.
There were also older kids like Shen Yuanbao who said, "You shouldn't lie to others, otherwise he wouldn't have been eaten by the wolf."
Shen Youyou nodded: "You are so smart. This story tells us that we should be honest children and not lie to others."
Here Shen Youyou was having a lot of fun being a little teacher, and the others who returned to the cave all had smiles on their faces as they listened to Shen Youyou telling stories to the kids.
I was still thinking in my heart: "Why not let the third child open a private school? Then he can be a teacher in a proper way."
