Chapter 0006: Who is the biological mother

He asked Aunt Teng in confusion: "Aunt, why do I not have a mother? How is it that I have never seen her?"

Another girl also reached out and smiled, saying: "My name is Bai He'er"

"Little Stone, do not be distressed. From time to time, you should visit the place where you used to live; perhaps your mother misses you and will come back to see you," Yue Feng quickly comforted Little Stone.

Well! Not only will I teach you lightness skill, but I will also help you gather a room full of herbs before we leave. Little Stone steadied himself and began to teach her the practice of lightness skill.

During his labor, Xiao Shitou often measures the medicinal herbs in the house, checking how high the piled herbs are from the ceiling

She took his hand and ran to the lawn to watch the young men and women dance

He crouched on the ground, holding his head, with both hands tugging at his hair

The woman is wearing a long tunic primarily in black and blue, with the collar, shoulders, sleeves, and back skirt all made from various colorful floral fabrics that are pieced together, adorned with embroidered patterns of flowers, grass, fish, and insects, showcasing vibrant colors

He opened his eyes and found that Yue Feng was twisting his ear

This ... ... sigh ... ... I have not seen my mother, and I truly feel unwilling. Little Stone slapped a tree with his palm, causing the trunk to sway unsteadily and the leaves to fall rustling down.

Since the arrival of Little Stone, her home has been filled with laughter

Little Stone turned over and got out of bed, saying: "What is different today?"

He lost his father at a young age and especially yearned for a mother to love him, just as Aunt Teng loved Yue Feng

Seeing the little stone in pain, Aunt Teng hurriedly walked over, pulling him up from the ground where he was crouching with his hair disheveled, and sighed with pity as she led him back home

Yue Feng is indeed exceptionally intelligent, able to learn quickly.

As winter approached, seeing that the little stones and Yue Feng had grown much taller, Aunt Teng went to the town to buy several yards of fabric to make them a few new garments

Yue Feng smiled and said: "Him? ... ... His name is Xiao Shitou, he is an orphan adopted by my mother, and now he is my little brother"

He intends to leave the Teng family and go find his mother once the medicinal herbs have all arrived on the rooftop

"Teach me to master lightness skill before you leave, alright?" Yue Feng felt somewhat reluctant to see him go, as it was rare to have a playmate.

Their dance is graceful, and their singing is sweet and pure

The white horse riders held hands, shoulder to shoulder, dancing joyfully around the bonfire

Only then did Xiao Shitou understand, and he followed Yue Feng out of the wooden house, teaching her the methods of inhaling, raising energy, exhaling, circulating power, and leaping.

She then thought that if the little stone had a father and a mother, it would not be so pitiful

Little Stone smiled broadly as she held their hands

Today is different.

Back at the cabin, Little Stone could not sleep all night

But you don't even know what your mother looks like? You don't recognize her, and she doesn't recognize you. How are you going to find her?" Yue Feng brushed aside the small stones from his hand and wiped his sweat with a towel.

This is quite simple; just teach me how you ride, and I will learn it that way. Yue Feng has his own reasoning.

It is not certain; perhaps she has been separated from you and your father and has been searching for you. You mentioned that your home is situated at a high place; maybe she found it but cannot reach it

"Alas, I don't even know how to ride myself, how can I teach you?" Little Stone shook his head and said

He arrived at Aunt Teng's home, learned to plow the fields, went up the mountains to gather herbs, understood the functions of various medicinal materials, and learned to prepare prescriptions

I do not resemble my father, so I must certainly take after my mother. Last night, I held a mirror and carefully examined my appearance. I thought my mother should look somewhat similar to me, so I asked those aunts who look somewhat like me, and I would find out.

It was almost dawn when he finally fell into a deep sleep

A roaring bonfire was lit on the open earth.

Little Stone groomed himself and donned the new clothes made by Aunt Teng, exuding a sense of heroism between his brows. Yue Feng, dressed in new attire, appeared elegant and refined

Little Stone took a towel and wiped Yue Feng's sweat, saying: "Sister Feng'er, I have gathered a room full of medicinal herbs for you, and I am about to leave"

He silently pondered: Who exactly is my mother? Why does my father never mention her? Alas! Once I have gathered enough herbs for my aunt, I will go inquire about my mother's whereabouts

Every evening, Yue Feng teaches Xiao Shitou to read and practice calligraphy with books, allowing him to gradually understand many principles and gain insight into human relationships and the ways of the world

Why didn't Father tell me I have a mother? Why did he deceive me into thinking I sprang from a crack in the stone? Two lines of tears suddenly slipped from the corners of the little stone's eyes

The attire of the youth in the venue primarily consists of robes and skirts in three colors: white, black, and patterned. The men wear a long shirt called "Chunna" with a front opening, the two sides of which are fastened together, secured with a waist belt, and tied at the legs. On their heads, they don a felt hat known as "Shaga," adorned with white chicken feathers.

As soon as they arrived at the large lawn, two little girls ran over, pulling Yue Feng and asking Xiao Shitou: "Feng'er, who is he?"

The bright moon hangs in the sky, casting silver light upon the ground

Xiao Shitou had no choice but to lead the horse over, assist her in mounting, and then teach her how to ride.

"Does that mean my mother has long since left this world?" Little Stone suddenly felt a sharp pain in his heart

After a moment of joy, he said with a hint of dejection: "I have lived on the mountain for ten years, and my mother has never come to see me. Perhaps she really doesn't want me anymore, or maybe she has long since passed away. Besides, Shibi Peak is so high, I can't fly up there."

I want to find my mother," Little Stone sighed.

His tone was quite sorrowful, and his eyes were red.

He has been hunting with his father for a living since childhood, and is skilled in making fire, cooking, and roasting meat

In a daze, Little Stone suddenly felt a sharp pain in his ear, and heard a soft voice beside him: "Lazy pig, it's dawn, aren't you getting up?"

This and * picture * book ... ... '' Aunt Teng was left speechless, thinking to herself: This is not easy to answer, how would I know about your family matters?

Then I still need to find an opportunity to go back and take a look Little Stone held back the tears that were about to fall and said firmly

Xiao Shitou was utterly captivated.

Little Stone quickly crawled out of bed, rubbed his eyes, and said: "Sister Feng'er, it is not yet fully bright outside, you usually do not get up this early."

Aunt Teng shook her head as she looked at her mischievous daughter

"What? Are you leaving?" Yue Feng asked in confusion

Aunt Teng sighed and said, "Alas! Little Stone, there are two possibilities. One possibility is that your mother gave birth to you and then passed away, which is why you have never seen her. The other possibility is that for some reason, after giving birth to you, your mother separated from your father."

Having practiced her lightness skill, she insisted that Little Stone teach her how to ride a horse

And then, after Xiao Shitou carefully observed the sensitive parts of the mare and stallion, he thought: Why have I only seen my father since I was young, and never my mother? Who is she? Where is she? Why has she never come to see me?

"Little Stone? ... ... Hehe ... ... Your name is quite strange!" A girl glanced at Little Stone and, extending her hand with a smile, said: "My name is Dezhuer"

Gradually, Aunt Teng has come to regard the little stone as if it were her own son

"It is impossible for her not to want you; after all, you are flesh and blood from her!" Yue Feng patted Xiao Shitou's shoulder and the book's spine, offering kind words of comfort

"Indeed, you are very clever," Little Stone happily turned around.

As they danced, their white feathers floated up

In his spare time, he diligently practiced martial arts and studied internal skills

He saw many people with white rooster feathers stuck in their hair, feeling quite puzzled. He then released the hands of De'er and Baihe'er, walked over to Yue Feng, and asked, "Sister Feng, why do so many people have white rooster feathers in their hair in the arena?"

Little Stone, naive to the ways of the world and filled with curiosity, often asked bizarre and peculiar questions, causing both her and her mother to frequently laugh until tears streamed down their faces

What is your surname and given name? What are your parents' surnames and given names? How do you inquire? Even if there is a woman in the world who looks somewhat like you, how can you prove that she is your mother? And how can your mother prove that you are her son?

"Hey, Sister Feng'er, be careful!" Little Shitou quickly used his lightness skill to chase after her

The feather ornaments swayed gently with their movements, exuding great elegance

She tugged at his ear again and said, "Birdman, have you forgotten? You promised to teach me lightness skill the day before yesterday. Hurry! I want to learn lightness skill; I want to be the Birdman among women"

Laughter brought joy to Aunt Teng and her daughter, and the two of them were no longer lonely

She tightened the reins as instructed by the small stone, wrapped her arms around the horse's neck, squeezed her legs together, and rode off.

The sky brightens, and the sun rises in the east
