Yun Amu and the others brought out the prepared food from the kitchen. The hot food exuded various aromas.
Pigs and beans, springs and taro... the people who got married came together one after another, and everyone walked in and sat down in a lively manner.
After the Asen children sat down, they looked at the food on the table and said, "Wow! There is so much food today!"
Yun Amu looked at these children happily, "Today I have your favorite food. I guarantee you haven't seen it before."
The children all laughed so hard after hearing this, "Oh! There is delicious food again!"
Shi Shan and You Lu also looked at the food on the table with shining eyes, and saw that most of them were things they had never eaten before.
"Brother Yaohu, Qingwu, your life is so comfortable!"
Yao Hu chuckled innocently, "Xiao Qing is in charge, I just serve the food."
Shi Shan looked at Yao Xiaoqing and said, "Qing Wu, what method did you use to manage the tribe so well?"
Yao Xiaoqing smiled and said: "Chief Shishan, our life seems to be easier, but our people are much more tired than yours. From the beginning of spring to the autumn harvest, we never rested for a day.
Winter is coming, and the men are busy training, and the women are busy spinning and weaving. Everyone has been busy all year long, and they have worked hard to achieve a day like today."
After hearing this, Shi Shan and You Lu thought for a while, "Yes, our people are really much more relaxed than you."
After hearing this, Ah Hei remembered that when they were in the Great Witch, they went out to hunt and returned to the tribe, where they lay down in the cave to sleep.
After everyone had eaten, Yao Xiaoqing asked someone to bring the cake and soy milk to the table, and everyone ate the fragrant and soft cake.
Everyone, young and old, fell in love with the taste of the cake and praised it repeatedly.
Jiang Li smiled and said to Yao Xiaoqing: "The pastries made by Qingwu are indeed delicious."
Yao Xiaoqing was also a little proud: "When the fruit trees in the orchard bear fruit next year, the cake made with fruit pulp will taste even better."
Jiang Li whispered: "Next year, go find wild grapes in the woods and make some of the wine you mentioned."
Yao Xiaoqing was also a little greedy for wine, and nodded with a smile, "Yeah! The sugar has been made, and we can find some wild grapes to make wine next year."
He touched his swollen belly and said, "Xiaoqing, grandma, I can't even hold it in my stomach. You brought delicious food again."
Yaya and Asen looked at him and said, "Uncle She, we are not afraid, we can eat another pot."
Yun Amu scolded: "You kids can't even feed them enough even if you eat several meals a day." Everyone laughed.
After Shishan found out that the cake was made from flour ground from wheat and added with eggs, he decided to plant more wheat next year and send someone to learn how to make cakes.
After a meal from dusk to dark, Shishan and Youlu stayed one night at the Yaoshan tribe. The next day it was overcast, and the cold wind blew the dead branches.
After lunch, the Yaohu family sent the father and son to the mountain and watched them go away.
Shi Shan shrank his neck, walked for a while and said to You Lu: "When it snows and winter, we can't let them sleep all day long. Let them sit and knit straw shoes, knitting baskets, and bamboo baskets. Next year we will also open up land for planting.
Food, live a good life.”
You Lu nodded, "When we go back, we must learn from the Yaoshan tribe and let the down-to-earth people lead the others to do things."
"Okay, I'll do as you say!" Shishan said.
Yaohu and his family returned to the tribe, and Axing went to the canteen to help. Yao Xiaoqing and Yaohu went to the refining room and saw Jiang Li and Dashi making wheels.
Only then did she realize that the wooden wheel was not directly made into a circle, but dozens of spokes were first made and fixed together with the axle part.
Cut four sections of arc-shaped wood out of wood, splice them together with the spokes to form a complete wheel, then use willow to fix the spokes and wheel parts together, and put an iron sheet on the outside to complete the wheel.
No wonder Jiang Li and Yao Hu spent so long thinking about making a wheel.
Yao Xiaoqing came out of the refining room, went to the medicinal field at the foot of the mountain, covered the medicinal materials with a straw curtain, and then went to the greenhouse.
Peas, rapeseed, garlic sprouts, cabbage, and green vegetables were planted in the greenhouse, and the straw curtains on the roof were also covered.
After looking around the greenhouse, she went to the pen.
The chickens and ducks were all put into the pens, and the sheep were all driven back.
Ah Chun saw Yao Xiaoqing walking over happily and said, "Xiaoqing, a big yellow cow is pregnant with a calf."
"Really?" Yao Xiaoqing didn't believe it.
"Really, I'll take you to see it." Achun took Yao Xiaoqing to the fourth cattle pen. "Look, it's this ox. I'll bring it over here and feed it alone."
Yao Xiaoqing looked at it for a long time and realized that the belly of this ox was more bulging than that of the cows in the pen next to it.
"Next year we will have our first calf."
Ah Chun nodded happily, "Yes! Sheep give birth to babies quickly, and the most common ones are rabbits. Every few days, a batch of rabbits will be killed to make dried meat."
"Uncle Chun, it's too cold. You and Uncle Gen shouldn't be too tired. Let the young people do the heavy work." Yao Xiaoqing said.
Ah Chun nodded happily, "You're dressed warmly! Besides, Yu and Ah He come to help every day."
They wore a sweater underneath, a sheepskin jacket outside, and sheepskin boots on their feet. They were sweating all over after moving for a while.
Yao Xiaoqing came from the pen house and went to the papermaking workshop. Douzi and Tarozi were fishing for paper with a few women.
"Xiao Qing, I'll use up the paper bark after making it today."
Yao Xiaoqing smiled and said, "It looks like it's going to snow in the afternoon. Let's go back and have a good rest for a few days after work." She thought that Douzi and Yuzi, who just got married yesterday, would rest for two days before coming back to work.
"Yeah!" Douzi agreed and got busy again.
Yao Xiaoqing walked around and returned home. He called Ah Que and A Nuan over and taught them how to identify herbs and some pharmacological knowledge.
The ginseng picked last time has been dried, and you can smell a strong fragrance when you walk into the pharmacy.
Yao Xiaoqing regretted that she did not learn the knowledge of preparing medicinal materials in her previous life. Many rare medicinal materials in later generations were simply a waste in her hands.
In the afternoon, it started to snow, and the heavy snow continued to fall until the next morning. There was a thick layer of snow on the roof tiles.
Men climbed up to the roof and swept the snow off.
Mufeng looked at the falling snow and said, "Fortunately, the tiles were re-covered, otherwise the roof would collapse again."
Muba nodded, "Yes! It's better to use tiles, otherwise the roof will have to be re-roofed next year."
Ah Hei and the others sat around in the warm spring-like main room, learning to weave straw sandals and baskets and baskets with Ah Chong Bo and the others.
This year, building walls, firing kilns, moving stones, and carrying baskets and baskets have suffered a lot of damage. We have to prepare these things in winter when we are not busy so that they can be used next year.
