Survival in Primitive Society

In the early morning of the next day, after eating some barbecue prepared by Lilian, Cortez and Drew went hunting in the forest.

On the way, Cotes couldn't help but think of the picture of Drew and Xie Wei'an holding hands that he saw yesterday. Such a picture made him secretly look at Drew who was in a good mood, hesitant in his heart, do you want to ask?

Cortez hadn't made a decision yet, but Drew noticed something was wrong with his friend, "Cortes, are you okay?"

"Huh?" Because of Drew's words, Cortes came back to his senses and smiled, "Ah, I'm fine, what's wrong?"

Drew pointed to Cortez's face, "I see that you have been absent-minded. Is there any problem with the cave? If there is, tell me, Wei'an and I will help you solve it together."

Hearing Xie Wei'an's name from Drew's mouth, Cortes finally asked hesitantly, "Drew, you and Wei'an..."

"Huh?" Drew, who was looking around to see if there was any prey that could be hunted, responded and turned to look at Cortes and asked, "What's the matter with Wei'an?"

Seeing Drew's frank expression, Cotes took a deep breath and asked the question in his heart, "You and Wei'an, I saw you and Wei'an holding hands when I left last night, you..."

"Oh, ah," Drew froze for a moment, then nodded calmly, "Weian is my Nata."

"Nata?!" Drew's answer made Cortez scream, "He's a man!"

"I know," Drew was still mentally prepared for his friend's surprise when he heard the news, he said with a smile, "Of course I know that Wei An is a man, but I like him very much, I like him I feel that making him my Nata is the right thing to do in my life and the luckiest thing that ever happened to me. Vian is good, really good, and he is the only one I want to live with until the end of my life to meet the gods."

There was no example of men and men together in the tribe before, so Drew's choice seemed so shocking to Cortez, for a moment, Cortez almost thought it was Drew's predation for himself. It was a joke, but with Drew's serious look, Cortez couldn't deceive himself.It was more because he was his friend, and the happy smile on Drew's face made Cortez unable to utter the words of disapproval. Even so, Cortez still felt weird.

After holding back for a long time, Cortes said sullenly, "Isn't our mission from birth to live and reproduce the next generation? If you are with Wei'an, where is your child?"

Seeing Cortes, who didn't say any objection or accusation despite his expression of disapproval, Drew was very moved, and he said with a smile, "I thought about it before, but I think I only want Wei An That's good, he is already the greatest gift God gave me, I shouldn't be so greedy. But now I know that God's love for me is not limited to that, we also have a child now, he is very healthy, isn't he ?”

"But that's not your child," Cortez retorted.

Drew shrugged, "What does that matter, the child has no mother, I think maybe his father also died in the earthquake, Wei An and I will raise him well and love him well, I will Teach him the skills of hunting and make him a warrior, he is the child of Wei An and me."

When it comes to children, Drew once again has a look of contentment on his face. With such a contented expression, Cotes couldn't say anything anymore, and only kicked a branch under his feet a little anxiously. "Well, this is your choice. I am your friend. Of course I hope you are happy."

He thought that Cortez would be angry and object because of his choice, but Drew didn't expect that Cortez still accepted his choice in the end and gave himself a blessing, so Drew couldn't help but stepped forward and hugged him hard. A glance at Cortez, "Thank you, my brother!"

Although he said he didn't care, Cortes still felt a little awkward. He patted Drew on the shoulder and muttered, "You are my friend."

Over there, Drew was "coming out" with his best friend, while Lilian saw Xie Wei'an holding the child from a distance after finishing her own business, and she looked at Xie Wei'an with her lips pursed for a while. go over there.

"Hey, Wei'an, do you need help?" When Xie Wei'an was dizzy with the child in her arms and Ah Fu who hadn't gone out with Barton today and kept rubbing at his feet to play with him, a voice came There was a sound outside the yard.

Xie Wei'an turned his head and found that it was Lilian standing outside the door. Although his face still had a bright smile like a summer flower, Xie Wei'an could still see a little nervousness in Lilian's eyes.

Xie Wei'an understood where Lilian's nervousness came from, he just smiled, "Okay."

Xie Wei'an's answer made Lilian's smile brighter.

"Let me help you hold the baby." Lilian got Xie Wei'an's permission and entered the yard. She didn't know what to do to help Xie Wei'an, so she could only start with the biggest goal.

Xie Wei'an was already driven a little crazy by the energetic baby at this time, Lilian just wanted it when she opened her mouth, "Okay, thank you."

But things are always so unsatisfactory, the child who can't speak yet seems to have identified Xie Wei'an, two strong Baozi hands are tightly grabbing Xie Wei'an's clothes and refuse to let go, Lilian came over and wanted to hug him. At that time, the baby still let out a low, threatening growl like Barton's. The baby's non-cooperation made Lilian feel a little embarrassed.

Xie Wei'an didn't expect that in just a few days, the child relied on him like this, and he was a little dumbfounded. Looking at Lilian who was at a loss, he smiled and said, "Why don't I hold the child, if you don't mind, you Can you help me water the vegetable garden?"

"Ah, yes, of course!" Lilian nodded quickly after hearing this, and looked at the neatly arranged vegetable field by Xie Wei'an. Lilian asked with a somewhat embarrassed smile, "This...how should I water the water?" Woolen cloth?"

Xie Wei'an carried the child and walked to the side of the vegetable field to guide Lilian, "Use the bamboo tube next to it to scoop up some water, yes, that's all, and then just pour it evenly, here, yes, and there as well."

Lilian listened very attentively and practiced very seriously, lest she might spoil Xie Wei'an's vegetable plot.

After pouring the vegetables, Xie Wei'an greeted Lilian politely, "Thank you for your hard work, drink some water."

"Hey." Lilian wiped the sweat from her forehead, nodded briskly, then scooped up a glass of water, sat on the stone and drank it slowly. Lilian looked at the vegetable field that had already sprouted, curiously Asked, "What will these look like in the future?"

Xie Wei'an put the baby on his lap and sat on his chest, looked along the place Lilian pointed, and then replied, "There are several kinds, and some will grow red long strips. Fruits, some will bear round striped fruit, and some will bear green small one fruit."

Lilian was taken aback when she heard this, "Are all these fruits edible?"

Seeing Lilian's curious look, Xie Wei'an smiled a little deeper, "Of course, they are all very good food."

"Wow," Lilian's face was full of amazement, "Really, Wei An, you and your tribe are magical existences."

Xie Wei'an laughed out loud when he heard Lilian's tone of admiration, "The emergence of every new thing requires many years of evolution."

These words were a bit advanced for Lilian, she didn't understand, but seeing Xie Wei'an's peaceful appearance, she couldn't help biting her lips, and then said, "Wei'an, there is actually a saying that I think I must to tell you."

"Huh?" Xie Wei'an was teasing the child, and turned to look at Lilian who had a serious expression.

Lilian caressed the bamboo cup unconsciously with both hands, and after noticing Xie Wei'an's questioning eyes, she continued, "I, I still want to say sorry to you, for what happened before..."

"That's all in the past," Xie Wei'an stopped Lilian who wanted to continue, and said calmly, "The past has become history, don't keep thinking about it, after all, we want to move forward, don't live in The past, seize the present."

"Eh?" Lilian didn't expect that Xie Wei'an would dismiss the apology she had planned lightly, and she was stunned for a moment before she nodded blankly and said, "Okay..."

Seeing Lilian nod her head, Xie Weian led Lilian to talk about other topics.

When it was almost noon, Xie Wei'an originally wanted to keep Lilian here for dinner, but Lilian repeatedly waved her hands and refused, Xie Wei'an didn't force it, and watched her go back to the cave where she and Cortez lived.

Looking at the time, Xie Wei'an felt that Drew probably wouldn't come back for lunch, so he made some random stuff to eat alive, and after eating, he began to play with the baby who was particularly energetic.

Perhaps because the environment has settled down and the daily milk is guaranteed, the child is getting stronger and more lively day by day. This is a boy, his skin is a bit like the color of Drew Cortes and the others, with a slight brown color. The round black eyes and curled eyelashes, together with the limbs like lotus joints, look extraordinarily energetic, which makes people like it just by looking at it.

Of course, this love at first glance is relative to people who only meet each other once, but for Xie Wei'an and Drew who have to face this child day and night, it is a bit painful and happy, because the two have to spend time together. Pay attention to whether the child is sleepy or hungry, and occasionally crows at night. Xie Wei'an, in order to ensure the safety of Drew's hunting the next day, has to do his part to push Drew who wants to get up and continue to sleep, while he resigns himself to getting up to comfort the child. After two more times, Xie Wei'an's lower eyelids were black and blue after dawn, and only after such tossing did Xie Wei'an realize how difficult it is to raise a child.But there is such a miracle, even though the child is tormenting him badly, but seeing the child's black grape-like eyes and the small mouth giggling like that, Xie Wei'an feels exhausted all over his body, and he is willing to hold the child coax.

Occasionally, Xie Wei'an, who was tossed by the energetic baby and almost collapsed, would also think, is it because of drinking she-wolf's milk?If it is replaced with goat's milk, will it be safe?Of course, this is just thinking about it. You can be content with having a nanny. Barton is not the director of the confinement nanny center.

Here, Xie Wei'an was staring at the child in a daze, while Xiao Zhuang Zhuang, who was drinking wolf's milk, was tired of playing with Ah Fu over there, and started to pounce on Xie Wei'an's chest again.

Xie Wei'an, who is now a skilled worker, put the child into his arms without blinking, and began to pat him lightly in order to let him take a nap. Xie Wei'an looked down at the baby who was stretching out his little hand trying to grab his nose, and suddenly remembered One thing, it's time to name the child, or will the baby's barking all day long confuse this little Zhuang Zhuang?

Anyway, Xie Wei'an was still a competent dad today, and when Drew came back, Xie Wei'an started to light a fire to make dinner, and the baby continued to play with Ah Fu's paw.

"Wei'an, I'm back." Xie Wei'an just walked to the yard to get firewood, when Drew carried several prey and walked towards this side with white teeth showing, followed by Cortes.

"Is it going well today?" Xie Wei'an opened the door to welcome Drew in, and was a little surprised to see the number of prey today, "Why did you hunt so many today?"

Drew put the prey on the ground and explained, "I went around with Cortes in other places today, and I shot too much before I knew it, but it doesn't matter, let's give some more to those gray wolves tomorrow, kid now Drinking more and more milk."

Drew didn't say much about Xie Wei'an in this way, and only greeted Cortes behind Drew, "Come in and sit down? Lilian came for a while in the afternoon and just left."

Because of Drew's confession before, Cortes felt a little awkward seeing Xie Wei'an's view. Hearing Xie Wei'an's invitation, Cortes waved his hands with an unnatural expression, "No, no, Lillian will probably do it too. It's dinner, I'm going back first, these prey still need time to deal with." He turned and left without waiting for Xie Wei'an's answer.

Xie Wei'an was taken aback by Cortez's abnormal performance, but thinking of how awkward he was when he first met Cortez, he didn't think much about it, and only focused on watching the prey Drew had shot.

After eating and drinking in the evening and tidying up, the couple who had been busy all day could finally lie comfortably on the bed and rest for a while. Xie Wei'an sighed comfortably, and then looked sideways at Drew who was looking at him. , Said what he was thinking this afternoon, "You said, should we give the child a name?"

"Choose a name?" Drew was stunned for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "Yes, it's time to choose a name," and then began to ask Xie Wei'an's opinion, "What name do you think is good?"

It's not that Xie Wei'an has never thought about naming his child, but after much deliberation, Xie Wei'an still thinks it's better to do as the Romans do, so he put his hands under his face and faced Drew, "Think about it, the names I chose are not easy to pronounce."

Hearing what Xie Wei'an said, Drew really began to think about it seriously. After a while, Drew's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Why don't you call it Danqi, which means brave and strong in our language. Hopefully he grows up to be a warrior as well."

"Dan Qi?" Xie Wei'an recited it back and forth several times in his mouth, and felt that the meaning was good, so he nodded and agreed, "Then call it Dan Qi."

Seeing that Xie Wei'an passed the name he chose without any hesitation, Drew was very happy, so he decided to share with Xie Wei'an another happy thing he encountered today, "Today, I told Cortez about our relationship."

"Huh?" Hearing this, Xie Wei'an raised his eyebrows, and instantly understood Cortez's unnatural expression in the evening, "Then what did he say? Unhappy? Disagree?"

"Of course not," Drew seriously denied, "Cortez... Well, although he was a little surprised, he still accepted the fact that you were my Nata, and he even blessed us." Obviously , The recognition and support of his friends is a very important thing for Drew.

Xie Wei'an didn't care about this, after all, he was living with Drew, and he didn't depend on others, whether others were happy or unhappy, agreed or opposed, Xie Wei'an didn't think it was a big deal, but now if Cortez doesn't object and wishes, Xie Wei'an I still think this is a very good thing, after all, it’s also good to have icing on the cake.

Seeing Drew's happy expression, Xie Wei'an asked jokingly, "Then what if Cortes disagrees?"

Drew was smiling vigorously, when suddenly Xie Wei'an raised such a question, Drew didn't react for a while, after he understood what Xie Wei'an asked, Drew stretched out his hand to caress Xie Wei'an's face and said earnestly, "Then I I won't give up on you either."

With such a simple sentence, Xie Wei'an was happy. He leaned into Drew's arms and said with a smile, "That's fine, go to sleep."

"Hey." Xie Wei'an's approach made Drew grin with white teeth, and then closed his eyes.

On the other hand, Cortes also told Lilian about Drew and Xie Wei'an, about the holding hands the night before yesterday, and Drew's response during the hunt today. To Cortes' expectation, Lilian's acceptance was faster than he thought. Seeing Cortez's slightly troubled face, Lilian said, "I only know that Drew is happy now, and as his friend, don't you just want to see him happy?" , anything else, what else is there to care about. Drew and Wei An are living their own lives now, and no one has the right to tell them what to do."

This clean and clear sentence completely cleared up Cotes, who was still a little confused in his heart. Also, it doesn't matter if Drew is happy and happy soon, what else does it matter.

Having figured it out, Cotters immediately relaxed, and began to fall asleep while thinking about where to go hunting tomorrow.

The next day Cortez came to find Drew to hunt as usual, and when he saw Xie Wei'an, his attitude was not as awkward as yesterday. It was the same as before. Of course, Xie Wei'an knew that he probably figured it out overnight, but he didn't show it on the face. Why, everyone is happy for a while.
