Pseudo-Villaines

Life Lessons From Mother

From tree to tree, the boy continued to jump. Sometimes, he grabbed a branch of a tree and then turned around to pick up momentum and then jumped again to another tree.

The boy, of course, was Jean. In addition to training for combat, hunting also became his daily routine. Jean had already memorized the route that was connected from the forest to the village where she lived.

As an illustration, the village where Jean and her family lived was a fairly large and peaceful village. There is a small river that runs through the village. Usually used by residents to catch fish, stream rice fields, wash, or even just a game place for children. Usually swimming.

There is also a plantation. The village is large but has a small population. So one family usually has a garden filled with various kinds of fruits and vegetables.

These plantations are also a source of income for residents. Every harvest season, the villagers would pick the ripe fruits and sell them to the city.

The money they get is enough to finance their simple life and even become capital to prepare for the next planting season.

Jean's family also owns a farm. More precisely in the back of their house. There are grapevines, oranges, apples, and a variety of vegetables. Incidentally, in a few days they would enter the harvest season. Jean was waiting for this moment!

Back to Jean's work. The task his mother gave him today was to capture a minimum of five game animals. Free to hunt any animal as long as the animal can be processed into food. Especially meat.

Therefore, Jean decided to capture three wild boars, one black horn deer, and one forest goat. He stopped on one of the tree branches and focused his observations on the surrounding conditions.

His mother always said that hunting was not easy. In addition to having to have hard skills such as spearmanship and archery, a hunter must also have high concentration and observation power. Because forests are dangerous places, they are required to be flexible in thinking as well as adaptive in various situations and conditions.

That's what Jean hears every time. And that's what's inside him now. Therefore, from the top of the tree branch, he set the rhythm of his breathing and closed his eyes.

Jean focused her auditory senses. He can sense the movement of various animals. He heard the footsteps of the rabbit running towards his nest, hearing Auman bear from miles away.

In the end, he heard the footsteps of a rare animal. Jean smiled and picked up her beautiful bow that was slung on her back. He also took out one arrow that he placed on his right waist.

Slowly, he aimed. From behind the bushes, appeared a deer with a size large enough. Jean's smile grew wider. Patiently and patiently, he continued to aim at the deer until it entered its firing range. And when the deer has entered......

CLAPP!!!

Jean shot the arrow and stuck it right in the deer's head. The deer was killed without having a chance to react.

'Yoshhh! Now, there's a goat of the forest!'

Jean seems to be in luck today. Because as soon as he killed the black horn deer, a mountain goat ran over the deer corpse lying on the ground. Without taking much time, Jean took the one remaining arrow and shot it straight at the forest goat and managed to hit its neck.

By the way, Jean only carried two arrows. That means he only had one chance to shoot each of his animals. If he misses, then it means failure and he is forced to pursue his target by running.

But for the boar case, Jean can handle it without an arrow. Jean just needs to go to their lair, provoke them, and confront them with her bare hands. His current strength was enough to kill 15 wild boars unharmed.

And it worked. Jean got three boars. By the time she goes to the boar's nest, Jean finds only three of them. I don't know why he felt that he was lucky today. At once, Jean managed to kill them by breaking their skulls in the head.

Jean took all her animals with her. Jean regrets her own stupidity for forgetting to bring a cart to accommodate her game animals.

Luckily Jean didn't go too deep into the woods. So he didn't have to bother dragging them along for a long time. That's why, half an hour later, Jean had arrived in front of his house.

"Ara Jean! You brought the hunted animals on target! Take them back to the barn, let Jhonson's uncle and aunt skin them."

What Jhonson's uncle and aunt meant by his mother were their neighbors who were also butchers. Their slaughter results are arguably a prima donna. There are no defects in the cutting process so the meat becomes more quality and more delicious when cooked and eaten.

In fact, it is said, the cuts made by Jhonson's uncle and aunt were also in demand by the people of the city! Ah, by the way about the city.......

'Jean, we're about to enter the harvest season. Most of the fruits and vegetables we pick will be sold to the capital. Therefore, come with me to see the condition of the city directly with your own eyes.'

But it's still about five days away. So Jean had to be patient and wait.

That evening, Jean had just finished her studies in her father's study. Today is economics. His father said that human desire is limitless. But unfortunately, the resources available to fulfill that desire are very limited.

And how people act and behave to fulfill their desires, and how they get what they want, is what is called economics.

Humans tend to want the greatest results but with the least sacrifice possible. And humans move in that way. This is called the economic principle.

In the end, economics is all about how you allocate all the resources you have in the midst of an unlimited desire but with limited resources.

Dizziness? Yeah, Jean's dizzy, too. He really did not understand what his father was saying. However, he kept a record of everything his father said. Whether it will be useful or not, it is another matter.

Jean really wants to sleep tonight. His brain feels very hot. Tomorrow he must wake up early to train. Then the afternoon was the time to read and do the work of his father, and the afternoon went out hunting. Not to mention at night he also had to study.

However, when she wants to go to her room, Jean sees her mother sitting on the floor. More precisely on a mat. His feet are in the position. His eyes were closed and his hands were down. His mother looks very calm......

"Jean? You in there? What are you doing?"

Jean's surprised. Reverie's scum. His mother opened her eyes and spoke to him. His mouth smiled at Jean.

"You're wondering what mom did? Sitting next to mom. I'm gonna teach you what I'm doing right now."

Jean obediently followed her mother's instructions. He sat next to Svetlana and put up the same position as his mother.

"Now, close your eyes and put your hands on your chest. Take a breath through your nose and throw it out through your mouth. Focus and clear your mind."

Jean followed all of her mother's instructions. He closed his eyes, took a breath through his nose and threw it out through his mouth. His mind became empty. At that moment, he could feel the breathing groove within his body. He felt the blood flow. No, rather, he could see his own breathing and blood flow.

Therefore Jean can manage where her breath is flowed and where her blood is circulated. I don't know why he's getting so light. His mind feels clearer. He could hear dangerous sounds from a distance but was not burdened with it.

And a moment later, Jean decided to get out of this strange area and return to her main consciousness. He saw his mother smiling with a very satisfied expression. He patted his son's head gently.

"Have you 'seen' him, son?"

Jean nodded. That nod made Svetlana smile again.

"It's called harmony, Jean. Goddesses create our bodies with various limbs that have their respective roles. The heart to obtain blood, the lungs for human respiration, and the brain as its instructor. They all work in their own roles. Without interrupting each other, without dropping each other.

"So is Jean's man. In order for people to live, they need harmony. Without dropping each other, without hurting each other. And also take care of each other. That is how humans should live.

"Do you understand, Jean?"

Jean nodded again, without saying a word.

"good. Then, do this before you go to sleep okay? It's good for your health while increasing your fighting ability."

Afterwards, Svetlana escorts Jean into the room. For a moment, she accompanied Jean until her son fell asleep, then came out after confirming the blanket and kissed Jean on the forehead.

'Good Night, Jean'
