这是俄国著名作家屠格涅夫写的自己小时候的故事。这个十岁的男孩，亲眼看到鹌鹑为了保护自己的孩子，假装受伤，想引开猎狗，却被抓住咬死，而几个刚出生的小鹌鹑失去妈妈的经过，对小鸟产生了深切的同情，从此再不愿打猎了。

This is a story from the childhood of the famous Russian writer Turgenev. In the story, a ten-year-old boy witnesses a quail pretending to be injured to protect her chicks from hunting dogs. Sadly, she ends up being caught and killed by the dogs, leaving behind her newly born chicks. This incident deeply touches the boy, instilling in him a profound sympathy for birds, and from then on, he refuses to hunt.
