The manner and tone of her words did not look like an elderly person or a country farmer at all.
Thinking of this, he thought of the glowing silver tube he saw at the foot of the mountain.
What kind of country is China?
He simply got up and went to the roof, where there was a cool breeze. He leaned on the back of his chair and looked quietly at the big silver plate hanging in the sky. The moon was big, round, and very bright, as if it was even connected to the moon above.
You can see the laurel clearly, it should be the full moon night again.
Qingwu, where do you come from? How can you make something that shines like the sun? Could it be that you are a god? He thought that when he had the right opportunity, he would definitely ask Qingwu what it was like there.
The autumn morning is already a bit cool.
Yao Xiaoqing came back from practicing Qigong and went to the roof of the building to look at the ramie silk that had been dried. It took just one night to dry it. Looking from the top of the building, the roofs of the first few rows of yards were covered with ramie silk.
After the grains in the fields were cut, it was time to harvest the ramie under the pond. She thought that rolling linen and spinning thread were easy, but the difficult part was the loom. She had only seen it before, but had never weaved cloth before!
Yao Hu came back from outside, looked at Yao Xiaoqing on the roof and said: "Xiao Qing, go to the cafeteria for breakfast!"
"Hey!" Yao Xiaoqing responded with a crisp voice and went downstairs, "Father, is Jiang Li's house ready?"
"When the roof is dry, just build a straw shed." Yao Hu looked at her with pride, "Xiao Qing, my father went to see the millet in the field, which is better than that in summer. My daughter is really capable.
!”
Yao Xiaoqing blushed and said, "Father, please keep your voice down, others will laugh if they hear you."
Yaohu raised his head and said, "Who dares to laugh at me and let his daughter grow such good millet?"
Seeing his posture, Yao Xiaoqing quickly changed the subject, "Father, brother, they are going hunting this time. How many days will it take for them to come back?"
"They said they would go further this time to see if there would be more wild animals. I'm afraid it would take seven or eight days to turn around."
Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "You should be able to get good results if you go a little further. Did you guys finish shooting the arrows last night?"
Yao Hu stopped and looked at her, "It's ready and sent to Jiang Li this morning. Xiaoqing, isn't it a bit bad for us to trouble him like this?"
Yao Xiaoqing thought about it and thought so, "That's a bit! Otherwise, when they move back, give them some salt. And give them some millet seeds."
Yao Hu nodded and said: "That's it!"
When the father and daughter arrived at the cafeteria, breakfast was already set on the table. Soy milk and corn porridge, pumpkin and poria egg pancakes, pickled beans and fried wild vegetables.
Yao Xiaoqing saw Jiang Li's long knife and bow and placed them beside him. Muba also brought a water bag and a machete. It seemed that the two of them were going to eat food and set off.
"Jiang Li, are the arrows ready?"
Jiang Li smiled and nodded, "The arrow shafts and feathers are ready-made, just install the arrowheads."
Yao Xiaoqing smiled and bowed to him: "Thank you for your hard work!"
"Qing Wu is so polite!" Jiang Li said with a thought, "Qing Wu, when I come back, can you answer me a question?"
Yao Xiaoqing nodded cheerfully, "Okay!"
Qiu looked at Jiang Li who was talking and laughing with Yao Xiaoqing, and felt that the food in his mouth was a little bitter. He finished the porridge in the bowl in one gulp, stood up and walked out.
Yao Hu took a bite of the egg pancake and looked at Yao Xiaoqing and Jiang Li talking and laughing. He suddenly felt worried. He felt that Jiang Li was a good person. If Xiaoqing did not become the leader and paired up with Jiang Li, he would still be worthy.
He is worthy of Xiaoqing. But Xiaoqing wants to be the leader and cannot be assigned to other tribes.
He suddenly felt worried about where he could find a man worthy of his Xiaoqing, and who was willing to live in the Yaoshan tribe.
Yao Xiaoqing saw Yao Hu holding the egg pancake and looking into the distance in a daze, "Father, the egg pancake is almost cold. Eat it quickly!"
Yao Hu turned around and said, "Oh! You should also eat quickly."
After Yao Xiaoqing finished eating, he took his sickle and went to the millet field with the women.
Shan Amu touched the ears of grain with a smile on his face and said, "Xiaoqing, the grain growth this season is much better than in summer."
Taro pointed at the ears of grain tied with straw ropes, "Xiaoqing, is that why you chose seeds?"
Yao Xiaoqing smiled and nodded, "Yes! The harvest will be good only if the seeds are good. Everyone, hurry up and get all the millet back before the frost."
"Yes!" Dozens of women went to the ground and started harvesting quickly.
At the entrance of the cafeteria, Yun Amu brought a basket filled with salted eggs, pancakes and dried meat to Muba, "Eat the pancakes early to avoid spoiling them."
Muba smiled and nodded, "Amu, we understand."
Yaohu and Heiba sent Jiang Li and Muba to the mountain and watched them go away before heading back.
"Heiba, let's go see if the roof is dry?"
"Yes!" Heiba nodded, "Chief Yaohu, can you teach me how to make some chairs?"
Yao Hu nodded, "That's easy, wait until the house is built and let Mu Feng teach you. Then carry a few jars and water tanks over there."
Heiba saluted gratefully: "Thank you!" He heard Hongye murmur several times, saying that the jars Jiang Li burned were not easy to use at all. They cracked when placed on the ground and a lot of food was wasted.
Yao Xiaoqing led the ox and brought the cut grains back to the yard one after another, spreading them out to dry in the courtyard dam. The radish seedlings in the vegetable field will be transplanted in a few days, so they quickly cleared some land
I came out and transplanted the radishes quickly while the weather was good.
She also plans to build a greenhouse at the back so that she can have vegetables to eat no matter how cold the winter is. She also plans to sow the reserved small and half wheat seeds to see if there will be a harvest next spring.
*****
In the Dawu tribe, Yan Yu and Chong tried their best to connect the bamboo pipe to the cave before the water was cut off. They watched the water flow out of the bamboo pipe and flow down the mountain along the bamboo pipe.
Although there is only a small amount of water flowing down the mountain, there is no need to climb up and down every day to carry water to drink.
Yan Yu looked at the water flowing into the pottery vat, "If Qing Sha was here to build these bamboo pipes, the water flowing down would definitely be more than this small stream."
Chong smiled and nodded, "Yes! It leaked a lot halfway, so it's good to see it flowing down."
As soon as the two returned to where they lived, Qing Huo entered the cave and said, "Yan Yu, the monkey has returned from the giant bear."
Yan Yu turned around and looked at him, "Where is he?"
Qinghuo looked at his gloomy expression and hesitated for a moment, "I went to see the leader. I heard him say that the Yaoshan tribe is fine. It seems that all the people sent by the giant bear were killed by them."
"They seem to have killed everyone? Please explain clearly what happened." Yan Yu looked at him in surprise.
"..." Qinghuo looked at him, "That's what the monkey said, and he asked me to tell you."
Yan Yu thought for a while after hearing this, and his dull heart seemed to relax a little, "That's great, I didn't expect that they have such strong warriors who can kill all the giant bears."
Seeing his happy look, Qing Huo also smiled, "You don't have to worry now."
