After digging chestnuts for a day, Jin Mang remembered something before falling asleep.

"That cannibal tribe seems to have no women?" Her tone was not very sure.

Qingsui was not surprised when she heard this, "The difficulty for single men is that they have no children to support them in old age, while the difficulty for single women... is that they cannot raise children. Generally, tribes will abandon bachelors, but they will not abandon single women. Even single women will not be abandoned.

Some tribes will have other members surround the territory of a single woman to provide a certain degree of protection. As long as a single woman raises a child, she will be considered settled in old age, but..."

She sighed and said: "Watching their children die or starve to death one by one, how many women can remain indifferent? So Mangmang, before you become stronger, if you see a single woman, don't do it.

Sympathize with them.”

She gave an example: "When I was a child, I met a single woman on the migration road. Her daughter starved to death. Her tears dried up, and she just sat on the roadside holding her daughter's body in a daze.

No one went to comfort her. At that time, I foolishly thought she was pitiful, so I went up to comfort her, but... I was almost strangled to death by her."

"If your father hadn't found out in time and called your grandfather to come, I would have really died."

"Why?" Jin Mang didn't understand.

"Because she is jealous that I can live while her daughter is dead." Qingsui sighed.

Jin Mang was a little speechless.

She has a very big heart, the word sensitive simply doesn't fit in with her, and she has never tasted jealousy.

Jin Meili has been studying since she was a child, and she can easily get the first place in the exam. Both teachers and parents like to use her as a positive teaching material to inspire everyone. Under such circumstances, she, "other people's child", is often rejected by children.

envy.

Zhong Xiuxiu's grades are average, but she can't stand the fact that her family is rich. She is also inconsiderate and can't judge others. She always shows off to others the expensive snacks and toys her father bought for her. Everyone publicly pleases her and hopes to take advantage of her.

, I actually don’t know how jealous I am of her.

As a child who grew up with these two people, Jin Mang had never had any jealous thoughts towards them. It was obvious that she had neither excellent grades nor a wealthy family, and she still had no parents and no mother, so she was secretly ignored by others.

The despised orphan.

Jin Meili once praised her as having a "heart of gold" in a joking way.

So at this moment, she really couldn't understand the single woman's thoughts.

But even if she didn't understand, she still remembered Qingsui's words.

When the Youying tribe left Chestnut Mountain, not only were the grain carts piled high, but everyone was carrying at least seventy or eighty kilograms of chestnuts on their backs.

After traveling all day, when they were resting at night, they met another migrating tribe.

It was a tribe with a larger number of people than them. The two sides looked at each other and each chose a place to camp in a tacit understanding, so as to avoid infringement.

Jin Mang and Lan Duo Lan Yu leaned together to eat chestnuts, and the twin sisters couldn't help but curiously look at the tribe next to them.

"They have so many children."

"Yes, and there are many girls."

"That's great. It would be nice if you could get along with us."

…

Jin Mang ignored the childish words of the two young ladies, and there were indeed many girls from this tribe they met, or rather... too many.

She felt a little strange. Doesn't it depend on the man to give birth to a boy or a girl? In Anze's case, the gap between male and female ratios should not be so big.

Jin Mang secretly counted and found that there were 9 children under the age of 12 in that tribe, and there was only one boy among them; there were 12 teenagers under the age of 18, but there were only two boys.

This is too sad.

Looking at the adult members, there are also mostly women and a few men. Probably because of this, the team over there is far less calm than them, looking a bit more embarrassed and more haggard.

Until they fell asleep, both parties were in peace. In the next morning, everyone left separately, because the destination was the same, so everyone was traveling the same way.

There were fewer and fewer prey. Fortunately, they had chestnuts as a snack, otherwise Jin Mang and the others would have starved.

The life of another tribe was not easy. Jin Mang once saw the children in their team chewing bark and grass roots.

After that, the two tribes camped in similar places several times, and the two tribes gradually began to interact with each other.

That tribe is called the Youyuan tribe, and it is said that there have been many girls for generations.

"That Youyuan tribe has an alliance tribe, that's why it is like this." Qing Feng explained to Jin Mang: "Although there is a gap in the number of men and women in general tribes, the gap will not be so big, and it will not be like this for generations.

.For example, we have the Ying tribe. It is said that your grandma and her family have more girls than boys in their generation."

"What is the Alliance Tribe?" Jin Mang asked without understanding.

Qing Feng thought for a while and said: "To put it bluntly, they only mate and reproduce with one tribe. In this way, the connection between the two tribes is deep, and at a critical moment, they can unite to deal with the enemy."

Jin Mang suddenly realized, isn't this a marriage?

She thought she was just listening to gossip and that the Youyuan tribe's affairs had nothing to do with them. But that night, before they went to bed, the head of the Youyuan tribe over there came over.

What is this for?

The brothers in Lan Ya looked at each other and were a little confused.

The patriarch of the Youyuan tribe is a tall man named Huang Ye. Just looking at the muscles and aura on his body, you can tell that his strength is not much different.

Huang Ye got straight to the point and said to Lan Ya: "Have you ever considered exchanging sons among your British tribe?"

Exchange?

Jin Mang frowned, was that what she understood?

"I know this." Qingke, Lan Duo Lanyu's fourth brother, said, "It's just a tribe with more boys and fewer girls and a tribe with more girls and fewer boys, exchanging children to raise them."

Jin Mang glanced at him and said, "Aren't you afraid that your second aunt and third uncle will send you out?"

"No, I'm too old." Qingke was not fooled, "And a child like Heilong who has already remembered is not acceptable. If the uncle agrees, it must be a child born after the splitting season. When the child is born

Just change it, there will be no difference between it and the biological one."

"Will uncle agree?" Lan Duo asked curiously.

"Probably not." It was her second brother Lu Kui who spoke.

"Why?" Lan Yu looked puzzled.

Lu Kui said thoughtfully: "Uncle would not want his own blood to become an enemy in the future, and...for tribes like the Youyuan tribe that are allied with others, the situation is more complicated. Uncle will not make decisions without knowing clearly."

Sure enough, Lan Ya refused without hesitation.

Wilderness was not discouraged, but instead made a different proposal: "Then do you want to become an alliance with us?"
