At the end of the Qing Dynasty and the beginning of the People's Republic, there was such a family in the liaoning territory. The family's surname is Song, the family's four children, the eldest and the second missing on the way to kanto, died early. Only a pair of brothers and sisters who lived, the third and fourth, arrived in liaoning, life finally got better, but their parents died in middle age and died of illness. Only the two brothers and sisters are left to live with each other.

The brothers and sisters were afraid of the neighborhood bullying, so they got a big yellow dog, the dog was mighty and strong, and compared with the wolf, it was not much more. When the farmer is busy, the big yellow dog looks after the nursing home and waits for the owner to return. When the farmer was idle, he and his brother and sister went up the mountain to catch pheasants and rabbits. Catching wild game, the two men and a dog improved their food, and in those years of scarcity, the big yellow dog made a great contribution to the brothers and sisters to fill their stomachs. It was also the only playmate in those lonely years.

The Song brothers and sisters are also good to this dog, as long as they do not starve to death, they will not let the dog starve.

Hurriedly ran home, and the moment he returned to the door, the Uncle of the Song family panicked. Only to hear the miserable cries from the house, there was a pool of blood at the door, and the big yellow dog was lying on the ground dying. Watching this chaotic scene in the house must be a fierce conflict. The Uncle of the Song Family rushed back to the house, only to see her sister holding the tiger egg in her hand and crying loudly, and the tiger egg was full of blood, but there was no trace of anger.

It turned out that not long after the Song family's uncle entered the city, the nearby horse bandits rushed into the village to burn and loot, and the horse bandits took advantage of the autumn harvest, and every household still had surplus grain, went down the mountain to grab it, and saved some grain for the winter.
