The harvest season is both joyful and hard-working. Men, women, and children in the tribe never rest for a moment from morning to night.
Dozens of people harvested millet during the day, and transplanted radish seedlings and garlic at dusk. It took them six or seven days to collect all the millet.
Before dark, Jiang Li and Muba appeared at the gate of Yaoshan tribe.
Ah Chun, who was guarding the door, heard Muba's call and hurriedly went out to remove the latch and opened the door.
"Chief Jiang Li, Muba, you are back!"
Muba smiled and nodded, "Back!"
Seeing his happy look, Ah Chun asked with a smile: "Looking at you, it's done!"
"It's done. Leader Jiang Li shot him to death with one arrow."
"That's great," Ah Chun happily patted Muba, "You must be hungry too! Go to the cafeteria and eat some food."
The two nodded with a smile and walked towards the cafeteria.
Just halfway through, he met Dashi who was returning from the fields to the west. When he learned the news that the black bear was dead, he was as happy as a child and ran towards the cafeteria, shouting.
"Chief, Leader Jiang Li is back! The black bear was shot to death by Leader Jiang Li with one arrow..."
Everyone stood up and rushed to the door.
Yao Hu stepped forward, looked at Jiang Li happily, and saluted him: "Thank you Jiang Li!"
"Thank you, Chief Jiang Li!" All members of the Yaoshan tribe followed Yao Hu and saluted him.
Jiang Li looked at Yao Xiao's pursed lips and smiled, and returned the gift with a blushing face, "I can't help it, this is also my duty."
"The leader is awesome!" Heiba and Hongye looked at him with pride.
Qiu whispered happily, "The leader is back, we can move back tomorrow."
Muba loudly told Yaohu what had happened, and Yaohu also gave Jiang Li a thumbs up.
"Awesome! Sit down and eat your food first, then go back and have a good rest."
Jiang Li smiled and nodded: "Okay!"
Yao Xiaoqing looked at Yao Hu's happy look and thought that if there was wine, he would definitely drag Jiang Li and get drunk.
After eating the food, Jiang Li took Heiba and the others back to the courtyard where they lived.
"Chief, the inside of our house is the same as here, painted snow-white, and the upper floor is even covered with a thick layer of thatch."
Heiba glanced at Hongye and the others, and whispered to Jiang Li, "Hongye and the others are so happy that they don't have to poop or pee in the wild anymore."
Hongye blushed and kicked him, "Damn it, you are really just a talkative tit."
"I'm not talking nonsense," Heiba looked aggrieved, "I heard it with my own ears when you said it."
Qiu pointed at him, "You eavesdropped on us again! Beat him!"
Several women swarmed up and grabbed Heiba and gave him a good beating.
Hei Ba broke away from several people and ran away with his head in his arms, "I've beaten him to death, I've beaten him to death, leader, help me!"
Jiang Li looked at their noisy appearance and waved happily, "Okay! Just give them a few blows!" Looking at their noisy appearance, he felt that the people here were still alive.
Unlike the people of later generations, who were bound by some pedantic dogma and had to hide their smiles.
Qiu ran under the eaves and looked at Jiang Li with a smile, "Chief, we will move back tomorrow!"
Heiba said loudly at the side: "The leader Yaohu said that he still needs to build walls and make doors, but he can't move them yet."
Qiu stepped forward and pointed at Heiba's nose, "I want you to talk more."
Heiba looked at her fierce look and said angrily: "Hongye and the others go to help harvest grains every day, and you hide in the house and sleep. Don't you blush when you go to the cafeteria to eat food?"
"I didn't sleep in hiding," Qiu blushed, "I was knitting straw sandals in the house!"
"That's enough!" Jiang Li looked at the noisy two people, "Go to the main room."
"Yes!" Several people followed Jiang and left the main room.
Jiang Li looked at the red leaves, "Have Qiu helped the Yaoshan tribe harvest millet these days?"
Hongye hesitated, "No!"
Qiu looked at Jiang Li aggrievedly, "I told you, I'm knitting straw sandals in the room."
Jiang Li frowned and looked at her, "I heard that Amu from the Yaoshan tribe taught you how to weave straw sandals. What did you use to replace them?"
"I, I..." Qiu looked down at the straw sandals on her feet and stopped answering.
Jiang Li looked at the group of people sternly, "Heiba, tell them, can the Yaoshan tribe defeat the giant bear without our help?"
Heiba responded without hesitation: "Yes!"
Jiang Li looked at Qiu coldly, "Qiu, tell me, what did you do to help the Yaoshan tribe? They don't owe you, so why can you learn their skills with peace of mind? Why can you go to the cafeteria with peace of mind to eat food?"
Qiu looked up at Jiang Li's cold eyes, was stunned for a moment, covered her face, turned around and ran away.
Jiang Li looked at Heiba and Hongye and said, "You remember, the Yaoshan tribe doesn't owe us anything, so don't think about enjoying other people's help with peace of mind."
Several people responded in unison: "Yes, leader!"
Jiang Li waved his hand and the others retreated.
Hongye and the other two returned to the house. Hongye looked at Qiu who was lying on the kang and said, "Qiu, the leader and Heiba saved us, so we didn't die on the way to migration. You shouldn't cause trouble for the leader."
Qiu raised her head and glared at Hongye, "I don't want to go out to help, and I didn't do anything bad!"
Xia looked at Qiu, "Sister Hongye is right. Qiu, do you think we don't know what you are thinking?"
Gu Ye nodded, "Yes, we all know what you are thinking. Qiu, the four of us were all abandoned by our respective tribes. It was the leader and Heiba who saved us and made it to the south alive."
Qiu looked at a few people with red eyes, "I know, I feel sad."
Xia looked at her and said, "What are you so sad about? Now I have food and drink, and no one has beaten or scolded me. I have never had such a life in my dreams."
Hongye looked at her, "Think about it carefully!"
Qiu looked at a few people and nodded, "I understand."
As soon as Yao Xiaoqing returned to the house, Mu Na walked in anxiously with her child in her arms, "Xiao Qing, look at Ah Nan, I don't know what's going on. I pooped him a few times today and he didn't even feed him milk."
Don’t want to eat it.”
Yao Xiaoqing touched his forehead and saw that he had no fever. Thinking of the food Yun Amu had prepared for breastfeeding women these days, he felt that the food must be too greasy, too much soy milk and soy products, and the child had indigestion.
"You feed him some water, drink less pig's trotter soup, and eat less soy milk and tofu. I will tell Yun Amu and ask her to prepare lighter food for you."
Ah Su nodded, "I understand!"
After Ah Su left, Yao Xiaoqing went to the bathroom to take a bath, then returned to the room with a charcoal pen and started sketching. Half an hour later, the appearance of a loom was sketched.
Looking at the appearance of the loom on the paper, Yao Xiaoqing was a little worried. She didn't know the specific parts structure at all, so what should she do? She suddenly thought of Jiang Li, who used this thing to weave cloth in ancient times, and asked him.
Tomorrow I will burn the limestone I picked up, then go cut down some paper mulberry trees and try to make some paper.
She greatly admired the first people to create paper and looms. She felt that they were really ingenious and she was just taking advantage of the advanced information technology of later generations.
