Chapter 235

Uncle Xiao nodded, "That's right. In forests where the snow hasn't melted, the nutrition for reindeer can easily become unbalanced."

Qin Feng added, "If it were summer or autumn, they could still lick stones to supplement salt."

Reba watched the little reindeer eating with great relish.

She then asked Qin Feng, "Qin Feng, you haven't told us yet why they cut the antlers."

Who isn't a curious baby?

Just now, when returning from the forest to the nomadic camp.

Reba had wanted to ask this the whole time.

Holding it in until now, she was incredibly curious!

Qin Feng answered, "On one hand, it's economic value. Antlers can be sold; herdsmen need to eat."

Reba continued asking, "Are there other reasons?"

Qin Feng: "Male reindeer's antlers grow quite sharp. During mating season, to fight for mating rights, they fight each other. There's even a possibility of stabbing each other to death." The other young couples: OvO!!!

Cai Xu watched a reindeer with large antlers and took a few steps back in fright.

Afraid of being stabbed.

He asked in confusion, "Is it this violent?"

Uncle Xiao smiled and said, "Don't worry. The one in front of you is a female; she's gentle and won't stab people."

Reindeer are one of the few deer species where both males and females grow antlers.

Their antlers are like tree branches.

Like moving trees in the forest.

Reba continued asking, "So even though cutting the antlers hurts, it's better than being stabbed to death by antlers?"

Qin Feng nodded.

"Unlike many wild reindeer, the Evenki reindeer have followed humans for hundreds of years and have a very strong dependence on humans."

Uncle Xiao joked, "Just like these little guys. When they go out to graze, they're afraid of being bullied by that silly dog."

Hearing Uncle Xiao's words, the young couples all laughed.

Only the little reindeer nearby made a noise.

As if protesting: Don't I have any dignity? Don't laugh at us like that!!

-- 【So the reindeer's combat power isn't strong~ They've been spoiled by the reindeer herders】

-- 【This is overindulgence!! (manual dog head)】

-- 【Does that mean this nomadic camp has more than fifty or sixty reindeer? Are there more returning?】

-- 【They count as a minority group relatively close to nature, right?】

If we say.

The Li village in the Qiongzhong Mountains that Qin Feng and Reba visited before.

They were enthusiastic, hospitable, singing and dancing, continuing Li culture to this day by relying on the mountains and the sea.

Then at this very moment, the Evenki reindeer tribe that everyone is visiting.

They are optimistic and peaceful, accompanying deer in the forest, and also have a long history.

Coming along with another reindeer.

Were two family members of Uncle Xiao Kuliang!

On the sled pulled by one of the reindeer sat a white-haired, over-eighty-year-old grandmother!

Reba: "Oh my god!"

Cai Xu: "Is the grandmother Uncle Xiao's family member?"

Hua Chenyu: "Her spirit is very good, even though she looks very old."

Uncle Xiao had already finished feeding the deer by this time.

He said to everyone, "This is my grandmother."

Uncle Xiao added, "At the same time, she is also the last chief of China."

Everyone's expression: 0.0!!!

Those words silenced the young couples!

An old woman over eighty years old, full of vitality.

Is actually China's 'last tribal chief'???

Before, when everyone came to the Evenki nomadic camp.

Just wanting to see the reindeer and taste the unique food was already very satisfying.

Upon learning that this kind grandmother was actually a chief?

Everyone expressed shock!

Qin Feng asked Uncle Xiao, "Is this Grandmother Maria Shuo?"

Uncle Xiao nodded.

Everyone was shocked again!

Reba: "Qin Feng, can you tell fortunes? Or read faces? How do you know the grandmother's name?"

Qin Feng: "Do you want to know?"

Reba held his arm, nodding her head like a pestle grinding rice, like a chick pecking rice.

"Yes!"

Qin Feng continued, "The protagonist prototype of the work 'The West Bank of the Eergunahe' by the Mao Dun Literature Prize is this Grandmother Maria Shuo." Undoubtedly.

The book Qin Feng mentioned, the other young couples hadn't read!

Reba finally understood what it meant to regret having read too few books when they were needed!

Ding-ling-ling~

The reindeer herd carried Grandma Maria back.

The little reindeer that had been so affectionate with Uncle Xiao just now.

All ran toward Grandma.

As if they had seen their most beloved person!

Uncle Xiao was instantly 'out of favor'~

It was clear that these reindeer all liked Grandma very much!

--【These little reindeer were just asking the uncle for cuddles, but the moment Grandma returned, they instantly ignored him, haha~】

--【They are really so close to humans~】

--【I've also read the book 'The West Bank of the Eergunahe' that Brother Feng mentioned! Never expected to actually see the real-life prototype of Grandma! Awesome!】

--【Brother Feng's reading volume and breadth of knowledge are impossible to estimate!】

--【The last chief, and she's a grandma, how cool~】

--【Another day of learning little facts while watching a dating variety show V】

Accompanying another group of reindeer returning.

Besides Grandma Maria.

There was also her granddaughter, who is Uncle Xiao Kuliang's wife.

When the small sled pulled by the reindeer stopped.

The first words Grandma Maria spoke were directed at Qin Feng!

"Young man, I know you." Grandma said with a kind smile.

Yo-shu-shu--

The other young couples.

All turned their gazes toward Qin Feng!

How did Grandma know Qin Feng?

After all, everyone was here for the first time~

This isn't scientific!

Qin Feng didn't ask for the reason, but replied: "Grandma Maria, I know you too."

Then, he said to Uncle Xiao: "We call you Uncle, and you call her Grandmother; if we call her Grandma now, isn't that a bit of a generational mix-up?" Grandma Maria smiled kindly: "Call me whatever you like, no strict rules."

Uncle Xiao's wife is named Wang Ying; her Evenki name is 'Valen'.

Everyone thought Valen sounded quite nice.
