The village chief saw that the white wolf was indeed different from other wolves. Just because of its snow-white and soft fur, it had been sitting there motionless since it arrived at the door of his house. It was indeed well-behaved.
The village chief boldly reached out and touched the wolves' heads, and the two wolves let him touch them, not resisting at all, and said: "This wolf is willing to get close to humans and is singled out in your house, it seems that your house is truly blessed, perhaps it really is a wolf fairy just like the villagers said, and so be it, I'll agree that you can keep them, and perhaps they can even protect the village as well."
Elder Xu felt relieved. Although the villagers accepted it, it would be difficult for them if the village chief disagreed. This is human nature. No one would leave such a potential danger as a wolf in the village.
But the Xu family can guarantee that the white wolf will never hurt anyone.
Elder Xu took a hare and a pheasant and handed them to the village chief and said: "These are the prey that the white wolf and his pack brought back from the mountains. They came here specifically to apologize. Please accept it, the village chief!"
The village chief asked worriedly: "There are still wolves? They won't come down the mountain to bite people, right?"
Elder Xu replied: "No, the white wolf is their leader, and they will not come down the mountain even if the white wolf is around!"
The village chief felt relieved and said: "I don't want the prey anymore, just let them eat it themselves!"
Qibao said: "Grandpa Village Chief, just take it, if we want to eat these, we can bring them back by asking the white wolves to go to the mountains, the white wolves know that they are scaring everyone, so they went to catch it for everyone to eat on purpose."
The village chief liked Qibao when he looked at her and teased her, saying: "Okay, then I'll take it. Grandpa will give you a little girl some face. I still remember the last time Qibao said he wanted to treat Grandpa to a drink!"
Qibao answered wholeheartedly: "Grandpa Village Chief you can come anytime, my wine is already brewed, it's delicious, my grandpa and my family love it!"
The village chief laughed: "Good, then grandpa will go to your house when I have time, Qibao don't be reluctant to give up!" The village chief thought that the Xu family had always doted on this girl. The Xu family would probably think this girl was the best no matter what she did.
After bidding farewell to the village chief, the old man returned home with his son and granddaughter.
Everyone in the family was waiting at home for the three, and when they came back, Wang asked: "Old man, what do the people in the village say? Are you not in trouble?"
The old man waved his hand and said: "No, they are all nice and not difficult, I know everyone in our village, okay, don't ask, go to bed early!"
The Xu family, then puts their hearts in their stomachs and shuffled off to bed.
Qibao lay on the bed and breathed a sigh of relief. The matter with the white wolf had been solved. There was no need to secretly release the white wolf in the future. Both white wolves were in her room tonight.
He was sleeping on the ground at the head of the bed. Seeing that Qibao wasn't sleeping either, he put his head on the edge of the bed and looked at Qibao. Qibao was lying on his side. She ran her little hands along the white fur on the white wolf's head and said: "Thank you for your hard work today, but this is a good thing for you. You can come out openly in the future, but you must not hurt the villagers, understand?"
White Wolf made a small whine in his throat, as if in response to Qibao.
Qibao smiled and said: "Do you guys want to go into the space, your two children are being taken care of by Xiaoling, you two can thank him properly."
The white wolf nodded, and Qibao waved her hand to take the two wolves into space, but she herself closed her eyes and gradually sank into sleep.
...…
Time flies by, and more than ten days have passed since the White Wolf incident. The weather is getting colder, and everyone in the village has put on warm clothes.
The white wolves have also gotten acquainted with the villagers, sometimes following Elder Xu and the others to look at the greenhouses, and the villagers are gradually not afraid of them, and some of them will even touch them and greet them.
The white wolf also knows how to do things. If nothing happens, he will go to the mountains to catch some prey and give it to the villagers. The villagers also like it and allow their children to play with the white wolf.
Today, the white wolf came to the greenhouse again, the village children saw the white wolf, they ran excitedly and surrounded the white wolf. They touched and hugged it. The white wolf didn't have any temper when it came to touching and hugging these little ones. He just let these little ones touch him.
Qibao also came to the greenhouse today, because today is a harvest day, and there were many people around the greenhouse, all coming to watch the fun.
Elder Xu had already asked eldest uncle Xu to notify Shopkeeper Tong to come and take vegetables tomorrow, so the vegetables had to be picked and prepared today.
The village women also came over to help with the picking, and Elder Xu spoke up: "It's been hard work today, everyone has been taking good care of these vegetables, I'm here to thank you all, this is the first harvest day for the greenhouse vegetables, there's money for everyone who came to help today!"
Everyone in the village knows that the Xu family is generous, last time the women in the family came over to help, the Xu family gave their men a lot of extra coppers, and this time they didn't excuse themselves, and went into the greenhouse to help their men pick vegetables.
The temperature inside the greenhouse was much higher than outside, and the people inside had taken their coats off, still beads of sweat were dripping down.
Xu's mother and daughters-in-law were busy picking vegetables in the greenhouse. Some children in their teens would also help their family members put the vegetables they picked into baskets, placing them very neatly.
The younger children didn't bother their parents and just played by themselves in a sensible manner. Of course, White Wolf was responsible for this. Qibao specifically told White Wolf to help the adults watch over the children, and White Wolf obeyed obediently.
When baskets of vegetables are brought out, Qibao will ask her family members to sprinkle them with spiritual spring water to keep them fresh.
At noon, Xu's family had a meal with the villagers. After the meal, they were again caught up in a busy schedule.
In the afternoon, many bamboo baskets were piled in the open space on the wasteland, filled with various vegetables.
The villagers are busy sweating, until they could pick all picked, Elder Xu realized: "Everyone, please go home and wash up and change your clothes. If you get sick, you won't get better."
The villagers agreed and all went home to take a bath and change their clothes, only the old man and the three brothers were left in the greenhouse field to watch over the place. The children didn't go back either and kept playing with the white wolf.
Not long after, the villagers all came back after changing their clothes.
When the old man saw everyone gathered, he said: "The first wave of vegetables has been picked. We have notified the shopkeeper of Zuixianlou. They will come to take these vegetables away tomorrow morning. Everyone has worked hard today, so go back and rest early!"
Xu Chunsheng, the leader of the team, asked: "Uncle Dashan, with so many vegetables placed here, will there be any accidents at night?"
The old man spoke up: "I'll have the oldest two brothers bring the white wolf here to keep an eye on things at night, so you don't have to worry!"
Xu Chunsheng said: "How can that be? This is all our work, how can you let your own family to watch, then why invite us all, listen to me, you guys will go home to rest at night, I will bring a few brothers here to watch, if Uncle Dashan is not assured, let the white wolf stay here is also possible!"
The old man waved his hand and said: "It's not that I don't trust you guys, I'm afraid that some outsiders will come to make trouble, besides our village, there are already a lot of people outside who know about the greenhouse vegetables that our family grows, and tomorrow is an important day for Zuixianlou to come to haul in the goods, so I'm afraid that if there's a slip-up, it's going to be a problem!"
