One person started the conversation, and everyone started talking about it.
Someone said: "The other day Yan Yu and I went near the Yaoshan tribe and climbed up the hill. We saw the thing called the wall of the Yaoshan tribe. It was like a cliff. We couldn't climb up in such a weather!"
Some said: "Yes! There are no small tribes nearby, and it's frozen outside. If we go out to hunt for food, we won't be able to wait until spring comes. It's better to go back to the tribe and come back in the spring."
"I think so. When we come back in spring, the Shenmu tribe won't run away."
Niu walked into the cave, looked at Yan Yu and said: "Yan Yu, let's go back while hunting. It's not too late to wait for spring!"
Yan Yu watched them talking in a flurry of words. What they meant was to leave here and go back to the tribe. No one wanted to stay.
He knew in his heart that they were telling the truth and that they could not attack the Yaoshan tribe at the moment. After a moment of silence, he nodded and said: "Okay, we will leave tomorrow morning."
A group of people cheered and stood up one by one and started packing their things, eager to leave.
Yan Yu glanced at them with a sinister look, turned around and went back to the cave. There was a simple bamboo ladder in the cave. The steps of the ladder were tied to two big bamboos with vines, which was a little crooked.
He made the bamboo ladder based on the bamboo ladder he had seen in the Yaoshan tribe.
He had people try it several times, but the steps kept sliding down. He regretted not walking in to see how they were tied.
In fact, Yao Xiaoqing and the others first used tenons for the ladder steps, and then tied a circle of rattan rope around the outside to fix it, so they misled Yan Yu and made him try several times without success.
Early the next morning, Yan Yu led hundreds of warriors, covered their faces with animal skins, and walked towards Qiu Mountain.
The oncoming wind and snow were as cold as a knife, causing pain on the skin. The grass in the forest was knee-high with withered grass, and the trees were withered.
The cold wind passed through the bare treetops, roaring like wild beasts. The forest was like a crazy beast, roaring between the sky and the earth. The grass and dead branches were swaying, which made people shudder.
On the second day of departure, there was not much food left, so I hunted a group of hungry wolves halfway along the way, killed a dozen warriors, and killed the wolves before I finally reached Qiu Mountain.
Da Ma looked at his son whose lips were cracked by the cold and his face was red, and comforted him with distress, "Have a good rest. Let's go there again in the spring."
"This is the only way. They built a tree house on a tree, and we can't get close at all. I checked from a distance and found that they had raised the wall." Yan Yu looked at him, "Father, I thought
There’s a way to get over the wall.”
Da Ma nodded, "It seems that Yaohu lied to you when he said the wall was not strong. You go and rest first, and we can talk to you tomorrow if you have anything to say."
"Yeah!" Yan Yu turned and left.

It took Shan Amu a few days to weave the first piece of cloth. Yao Xiaoqing found that the ramie cloth had a good finish and felt smooth and elastic.
Seeing how much Yao Xiaoqing couldn't put it down, Grandma Shan said cheerfully: "Xiaoqing, let Grandma Bao make you some clothes to wear."
Yao Xiaoqing smiled and said: "Emma, I promised Jiang Li that I would use the first piece of cloth to make him new clothes."
Shan Amu smiled and nodded, "Yes, it should be made for leader Jiang Li. He spent a lot of effort to make this loom. Shan and Ada are working on the second loom. We will soon
There’s more cloth.”
Yao Xiaoqing looked at her with a smile, "Yeah! Knit it and make it for Uncle Shan first."
Shan'am smiled and shook his head, "That can't be done. Let the leader do it first, then you and Mu Feng, and then it's someone else's turn."
Yao Xiaoqing knew it was useless to say anything more, "You ask Bao Amu to measure Jiang Li's new clothes, and I'll go to the greenhouse to take a look."
After hearing this, Shan'am said: "I heard Ayun say that the vegetables in the greenhouse can't be harvested, so we can't use all the vegetables."
This place is no different from later generations, where you just have to buy vegetables when you run out. These vegetables are collected in daily life and are eaten by more than a hundred people. There will definitely not be enough vegetables in the greenhouse.
Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "It's okay if we don't have food to eat. I'll go take a look and think of a solution."
When we arrived at the greenhouse, we saw that the pea tips and rapeseed had been pinched several times, the cabbage leaves were peeled off until only a heart was left, and only the leeks and garlic sprouts were still intact.
She thought about it for a moment, and realized that the most common thing in the tribe was soybeans, and it suddenly occurred to her that she could grow bean sprouts!
Yao Xiaoqing happily went back and scooped out two bowls of beans, selected them, washed them with hot water, poured them into a basin and soaked them in warm water.
After seeing this, Yun Amu hurriedly said: "Xiaoqing, there are still tofu!"
"Instead of making tofu, I want to try making some bean sprouts to eat."
"Bean sprouts?" Yun Amu said with a smile, "Have you thought of something new to eat again?"
Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "Wait until it soaks and I'll come back before dark."
"I know." Yun Amu put the basin on the shelf.
Before dark, Yao Xiaoqing found two old baskets, put some cattails under them, and carried them to the greenhouse.
After returning to the cafeteria for dinner, she carried the soaked beans to the greenhouse, sprinkled them evenly on the cattails, spread a layer of cattails on top, sprinkled some warm water on top, and covered them with a dustpan.
After leaving the greenhouse, Yao Xiaoqing saw Ah Chun carrying a bundle of grass into the cattle pen. He walked over and said to him: "Uncle Chun, no chickens or ducks have frozen to death these days, right?"
Ah Chun turned his head and said, "No! I just didn't pick up as many eggs as before."
Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "It's because of the cold weather."
"I think this is the reason." Achun walked outside the cattle pen and said, "Xiaoqing, I think we should build a few rows of larger livestock houses outside. In another year, the pens here will not be enough.
Already."
Yao Xiaoqing looked around and nodded: "When we build the fence in the spring, we will build several rows of livestock houses along the fence."
Ah Chun smiled and nodded, "Okay."
Yao Xiaoqing saw A Gen coming from that way and said with a smile: "Uncle Chun, Uncle Gen, you guys go to rest early, I'll go back first."
The two of them smiled and nodded, "Okay! We've given fodder to the cows and we'll go back."
Next, Yao Xiaoqing would run to the greenhouse several times every day to water the bean sprouts.
Two days later, I uncovered the dustpan and peeled away the cattail grass and found that the beans had grown light yellow buds. I checked and found no moldy beans. I covered it with cattail grass and dustpan and continued to sprinkle water.
After another three or four days, Yao Xiaoqing started to harvest bean sprouts. Two bowls of beans were about two kilograms, and a full basket of bean sprouts was handed out. She estimated that there were twelve to three kilograms of bean sprouts. If it had been harvested two days later, it would have been
There can be more.
For lunch, everyone had crispy fried bean sprouts and cold bean sprouts.
Yun Amu took over the task of growing bean sprouts.
Half a month later, Shan took Ada and others to make two more looms. Shan'am taught Asu, Ayu and Meihua how to weave.
Yao Xiaoqing put on underwear made of ramie. She felt it was more comfortable to wear than a T-shirt, but the disadvantage was that it wrinkled easily.
