Orcs’ Time Through Time - Chapter 88
Because it was August, the day when the sun was shining after more than a month of heavy rain, the wood was dried very quickly, so in about a month and a half, we prepared all the wood and started to build and lay the foundation. Although people are constantly arranged for hunting and food storage, all tasks have not been delayed.
As usual, the trunks of the trees were cut down to make houses, and the small branches were used for fences. After learning the lessons from the last time, our fence is stronger and denser than the last time. It is estimated that ordinary mudslides will not be able to enter. And for the sake of safety and drinking water, I also plan to wait next year when everyone has time, and then dig a circle around the tribe to protect the river. You can also fetch water, use it as a ditch, and stop some animals from approaching.
To be honest, I have the idea of digging the moat to the width of a cow to fall, so we don’t have to worry about whether there are tooth-eating rhinos nearby. But now we don’t have time and material resources.
Thanks to our newly dug traps, we still have enough food for the winter in September. Of course, this is also thanks to the efforts of our people. The males who were arranged to go hunting basically did not rest all day. While we hunted a lot of meat, we also raised a lot of new animals, the most of which were wild boars, wild deer and turkeys living in the mountains. , Pheasant.
Gunan also arranged for two males and several females to tie a net together and go fishing in the river. Although we don’t have time to dig fish ponds, we have dried a lot of dried fish, and by relying on fresh fish, we have also saved a lot of meat.
Although the heavy rain almost drowned the things on the plains, and there was not much food to eat on the plains, fortunately, the sweet potatoes, potatoes, pumpkins and the like on the mountains did not die, so we also dig In the cellar, a lot of sweet potatoes and potatoes are stored for winter eating.
Luo Lei said he had the final say, we should have enough food, even if the winter is longer, it doesn’t matter. So I finally feel more at ease. The only thing that makes me regret is that we once again returned to the pre-liberation period, and there was no inventory at home.
In October, we prepared the materials and started building the house. Because the foundation and structure have been set up, the house is built relatively quickly. By mid-November, although not every family can have a separate house, all of us have moved into the house, and Some daily necessities were also allocated. As long as we have enough time to slowly rebuild, our tribe should become more and more stable.
Although I didn’t believe that there was a child living in my stomach at first, as the beer belly has become more and more obvious, it has recently become a huge general’s belly. I don’t believe it and I must believe it. So in winter, I didn’t really want to move, and I finally understood the difficulty of some women. With such a stomach, it’s inconvenient to go anywhere. Fortunately, I had not yet developed a general belly back then, and I was determined to strengthen exercise when I was old. But my life is still more uncomfortable.
Although I didn’t do much in the past few months, I have always been in charge, and I feel so busy that I can’t stop. Now that I don’t do anything when I’m free, I feel that everything is wrong.
But Luo Lei didn’t know what he was thinking, so he didn’t let me do anything.
Actually I am a little worried. Because I have never seen such a big belly, I have also seen Aman’s belly, probably because they are only six months old, so their belly is much smaller. Of course, these little beasts were much smaller when they were born.
It’s just that, looking at my stomach, I feel a little melancholy.
Even if it’s a general’s belly, it’s only half a year. Even a woman who conceives in October doesn’t necessarily have such a big belly, right? Not to mention the belly of Aman and Ayuan.
Is there really no problem? I think so.
But Luo Lei has been comforting me.
“It’s okay. Children with different animal shapes are born differently. Maybe it’s because the griffon and the sword-toed wing tiger are already relatively large…”
In fact, this kind of reason is really bad. Does he think I haven’t seen Luo Lie and A Xing’s little sword-toed wing tiger? Even if that is not completely animalized, the gap shouldn’t be so obvious, right?
But obviously, he himself believed this reason. And not just him, even the rest of the clan seemed to believe it. On a few occasions, I even heard someone talk privately about whether there is going to be a next patriarch in our clan.
Although the system here is that everyone chooses the patriarch, the patriarch here generally chooses the best person to serve. If our family is a golden griffon, it is of course possible to give it a try. In my case, I certainly hope that he will have the opportunity. In other words, he must create opportunities if he does not have the opportunity, but if there is really no such talent, I have nothing to say.
Because my belly became too big, I hardly went out for the next half month. However, this day has finally arrived.
As men in both lives, one day they will face the pain of having a child. When I think of it, I think it’s incredible. It’s just that kind of pain, and it really makes people feel unbearable. Compared with some women who gave birth to children through caesarean section in the 21st century, it is said that they gave birth to children very gracefully. I suddenly discovered that ancient women really suffered.
When I felt wrong, Luo Lei called both A Yuan and A Dou, and also called A Man and A Lin. Others didn’t call, probably he also knew that too many people came in and it was an insult to me. I am not used to being seen by people, let alone being watched to give birth to children.
A Rui has grown up a bit, growing up outside to boil water with his brother.
There is no saying here that a partner cannot be accompanied, so Luo Lei held my hand by the side.
I’m a little confused, maybe I’m really confused. In the dim, I even think these are dreams.
I really want to go back to when I was a kid.
At that time, the parents were struggling in the field. Grandfather took our three brothers and sisters alone. Every morning, my sister would wake me up and wash my face, and then my brother would take me to school. At noon, the three of us went to the aunt’s house closest to the school for dinner and had fun with our cousins.
After class in the afternoon, sometimes my brother is waiting for me at the door, but most of the time I am waiting for my brother at the door, because they are in a high grade and the teacher has to give a lot of lectures, so the class is often delayed. After that, my brother will hold hands and take me back. Then after we finished the dinner that my grandfather made, my brother would ask me to do my homework. Sister, help grandfather wash the dishes.
During the New Year, Mom and Dad will go home, bring New Year’s stuff, there will be peanuts, candy, and new clothes every two years.
At that time, we didn’t have a TV or a computer, and even the house was a brick house, but I was very happy at that time.
When did the change start? Starting his real estate business from his father? Since my father has taken the family members to live in the city?
I don’t remember anymore.
I just don’t remember when my brother ignored me. He always thought I was stupid and couldn’t help him at all. Even my sister always hates me for being in the way.
My father is very busy. I know that his business is getting bigger and bigger, and he has no time to care about me. His heir is his brother, and the intimate little quilted jacket my mother likes is my sister, and I am just a dispensable. Just like what my father said, if you have the ability in the future, you can beat your brother at home. If you don’t have the ability, you can go outside and do things on your own.
I also want to do well, and I also want to be a good helper for my brother, but not everyone has that talent. In the company, one uncle took the post of general manager, and the other felt that he was missing. The mother always felt that her brothers and sisters were not taken care of enough, and the family was always miserable. Sometimes they come and ask me, what can I say? It is wrong to belittle either, I can only say nothing.
When my brother arrived at the company, his father’s business had already spanned the two lines of real estate and mining, and he was also well-known in the local area. But elder brother, the elder brother raised by his father since childhood, is this a good way to go? Who in the family doesn’t want to get something here?
My father loves his nephew and nephew, especially his two cousins who are very good at making things happen. From my mother’s point of view, his love for them even surpasses me.
My mother often said: “What’s the use of you? Even other people’s houses are more pleasing to your father than you. If I hadn’t had your brother…”
What can I do? I can’t do business well, I can’t handle these interpersonal relationships proficiently, nor can I deal with them exquisitely. All I can do is to do well the things that have been arranged.
I obviously don’t want to live like this. For me, having a stable job doesn’t need to worry too much about interpersonal relationships. Everyone does their own thing. You don’t need to calculate or exclude others. That’s the best.
But what is the reality? Several cousins said in front of his father that I was incapable, and I recognized that I did not have such capability. Saying that I don’t do things for them, I have heard of it and I have no excuse. Indeed, I don’t have the ability. But why, do I have to have this ability? Why can’t I just live ordinary?
Despite this, I have been working hard. When I entered this state-owned enterprise, my father said you should do more. When others were having fun, I also worked overtime. In exchange for a diligent compliment from the leader, my father was very happy. But later, when others were promoted, when I failed, my father became angry again. He said: “Why can’t you be better than others?”
Later, I went on a blind date. The father said, since you can’t, at least have a smarter child.
So, I started dating a girl he liked very much. It’s just that I’m still not good enough.
It’s certain that I can’t match my brother, but I didn’t expect that in their eyes, my value is like this. This woman my brother doesn’t like, while asking me to buy her all kinds of things, while in love with others, even asked me to buy a house, saying that it is for marriage, but not married yet, what she wants is The house should write the names of her parents. Although I am not smart, I am not a fool either. Father said, buy a house and see if she marries you. But, watching her ask me to do this while interacting with others, should I be a fool?
In fact, it is nothing to break up in love, not to mention that she soon gets better with others. This matter is nothing at all. It’s just that I became a joke. But, is this my fault? Why, next, my father is still to blame? Just because I am not good enough? Don’t give him a face? Because even a woman can insult me?
Maybe, everyone is really selfish. Father and son, brother, lover, what exactly is right? Or, what do they want and what I want? Or, is it just that I am not suitable for that world? Or is it just that I can’t adapt to that world? Or it’s just that I asked too much…
In my ear, someone was calling me with an anxious voice.
They were yelling “Arnold, Arnold, wake up, Arnold…”
However, I am not Arnold, at least, the original Arnold is not me. I am not your Arnold. I’m……
Who am i? Who should I be…
