Chapter 194 Separation

After they left, Xiao Yan and Shen Xiaoxiao kept smiling. They looked at each other, thinking that soon there would be a little guy calling them father and mother, and their hearts softened.

But soon Xiao Yan frowned, "What's wrong?" Shen Xiaoxiao asked with concern, why was he suddenly unhappy?

Xiao Yan shook his head, "It's okay, I just feel a little unreal." In fact, he was very worried, worried that she would have an accident during childbirth. Although he had not experienced it, he had heard other females screaming when giving birth, and some even died before giving birth to their cubs.

He didn't want Xiaoxiao to experience this kind of thing, and more importantly, he was afraid that Xiaoxiao would leave him.

Shen Xiaoxiao didn't think much about it, and smiled, "It's true, we will have a baby soon." Although the world of two people is good, she also wants to have a child, but the reason she wants a child is because of him, because they love each other, so she wants to have children for him. If it were someone else, she would definitely not have this idea, but if it were someone else, she might still be single now, and she wouldn't marry herself off so soon.

Xiao Yan smiled and said, "Are you hungry? I'll cook some porridge for you."

"Don't bother, just eat this." The meal was already ready, and it would be a waste if she didn't eat it, and there was no need to cook it again, so she just didn't touch the fish.

Originally, Xiao Yan was going to go to the fields, but after knowing that Shen Xiaoxiao was pregnant, he didn't want to go anywhere.

Soon everyone in the tribe knew about Shen Xiaoxiao's pregnancy, and they all came together to see her with things. After all, she had been in a covenant with Xiao Yan for so long, and it was the first time she had a cub, so they were happy for her.

Although no one said anything about not giving birth to cubs, giving birth to cubs after a covenant is what most people do, and it's a minority like them who have had cubs after so long.

Xiao Yan received waves of people, but they asked them to take back what they brought. Most of them took vegetables and meat, and it would be a waste if they didn't finish it, so it would be better to let them take it back for a snack.

Since Shen Xiaoxiao got pregnant, Xiao Yan was tense and didn't dare to relax at all. He obeyed Shen Xiaoxiao's requests, whether reasonable or unreasonable, and met them one by one. Shen Xiaoxiao sometimes felt that she was making trouble for no reason, but he had no opinion at all. Even if she just asked casually, he would take it to heart.

Except for working in the fields, Xiao Yan spent most of his time with Shen Xiaoxiao.

Time flies, the breeze brings the fragrance of rice, the golden rice ears and wheat ears are hanging all over the fields, and the full rice ears bend the rice straw. When it comes to the harvest season, the tribesmen began to harvest wheat, one by one wearing straw hats and working hard, and soon a layer of straw was spread on the ground.

Xiao Yan also started harvesting. In the past, the two worked together, and the speed was not slow, but this time he was alone. Shen Xiaoxiao also wanted to help, but Xiao Yan said he didn't want to say anything. At most, he asked her to come and see, otherwise he would be bored staying at home all day.

"Master, we are here to help you." Rongrong and the others came over with sickles and straw hats. They helped the tribe to treat illnesses, so they did less work. The others did not object. After all, with them, any pain or injury on their bodies could be solved well.

It stands to reason that they need to help the tribe to harvest rice during the autumn harvest, but if they go to help Shen Xiaoxiao and the others, the others will not say anything.

"Master, you just watch from the side, we will be able to harvest it soon." Xiaowu said with a smile.

"Thank you for your hard work." Shen Xiaoxiao did not refuse. After all, they planted a lot. If Xiao Yan harvested it alone, it would probably take several days to finish.

"It's not hard, not hard." Xiaoba and the others responded quickly.

With their help, it took less than a day to harvest the rice and wheat. The next day, they took the rice to the threshing ground for threshing. Shen Xiaoxiao told them about the foot-operated thresher according to her memory. Unexpectedly, they actually figured it out. Since the year before last, they no longer had to thresh the rice like before. Although it was tiring to pedal, it was relatively easier.

After threshing, they dried the rice. Taking advantage of the good weather, they quickly dried the rice. Xiao Yan specially made a meal with the newly pounded rice and invited Rongrong and others to eat.

That day, the witch doctor gathered everyone together.

"I have something to announce today."

"What is it?"

"The tribe is developing better and better... We can't... In order to prevent bad things from happening, I discussed with the goddess and made a decision that I will no longer care about you in the future."

Others were shocked and asked anxiously, "Why don't you care about us?" Is the witch doctor going to give up on them? No, they will definitely not be lazy in the future.

"Yes, witch doctor, what did we do wrong?"

The witch doctor motioned them to be quiet, and then said, "You did nothing wrong, but the tribe has developed and it is only a matter of time before it reaches this point. Now everyone can live on farming and no longer need to go hunting or picking outside. I believe you can also see that some people are lazy at ordinary times. Once or twice is nothing, but don't forget how many people you are. One person once or twice, and so many of you add up to a lot."

"In the future, everyone will slowly blame each other, thinking that they have done more work than others, and are unwilling to work. In the end, the tribe will become worse and worse."

The others lowered their heads and were embarrassed to look at her. After all, as the witch doctor said, they are indeed much lazier now than when they were hunting before. Sometimes they are lazy in various ways and don't want to work.

"Witch doctor, we know we are wrong, please don't ignore us." They know that it is not good to be lazy. If the witch doctor ignores them because of this matter, what will they do?

"That's right, witch doctor, we will never be lazy again, please leave us alone."

After they stopped, the witch doctor continued, "I know you also have your own ideas, and I don't want to control you, so I have discussed it with the goddess. If you still want to be like this after listening to it, then I will do it again in the future. I'll take care of you. If you agree, I won't interfere in your lives anymore except for big things."

Others looked at her uneasily. Some people vaguely guessed something, but they did not catch the thought that passed by. They could only listen patiently to the witch doctor's next plan.

"Do you think the life of the goddess and Xiao Yan is good? Are you comfortable?"

"Okay." Goddess and the others are the best in the tribe.

"If you were asked to be like the goddess and the others, would you be willing?"

Others began to whisper among themselves and discuss in low voices. The witch doctor looked at them calmly. After a while, Lin Yundao said, "Witch doctor, do you mean to let us farm our own land to support ourselves like the goddess?"

The others stared at her with burning eyes.

"Yes, that's it. From now on, you will no longer eat from a big pot or live together. You can build your own house and live together as a family. The tribe's land will also be allocated to you. How much you can grow depends on your ability. ." Then he said, "If you plant more, you will be full. If the harvest is not good, you will be hungry, and no one from the tribe will help you. You will have to rely on yourself."

Although this is more realistic, it is the fact. If they have a bad harvest and still want the tribe to help, what is the point of separation? Besides, there was no food for the tribe after they separated, so even if she wanted to help, she was powerless.

The others were silent. Some of them did have this idea, but after all, they were still a small number of people, and if they really wanted to separate like this, they didn't know what to do.
