Rong looked at him and said: "The Qingwu said that day, let everyone think about it for a day. There are more than a dozen leaders of the Yaoshan tribe who are clamoring to join. When the Qingwu said that they didn't even have to join the team, one by one.
Shrunk back.
After Huo and I came, Qingsha said that if there were tribes coming later, they would no longer accept their membership. If they couldn't live any longer and came to the leader Yaohu again, they would definitely not see him."
Huo nodded, "There's nothing bad about my life here. I think the happiest ones are those, Old Empress and Old Uncle."
Amon took over and said, "I don't regret joining the Yaoshan tribe at all. I never had a stable life here as a leader before."
Lu lowered his head and said, "I don't regret joining the Yaoshan tribe. If I didn't come here, my son might..." He didn't dare to say any more.
Huo remembered what he saw in the canteen when he delivered the basket yesterday, and looked at the three of them with bright eyes, "Did you know that there is something called a calendar in the canteen of the Yaoshan tribe? I heard the old lady inside said that last year
It’s late spring and early summer now.”
The three of them looked at him in confusion, "What is the calendar?"
"The calendar is used to see the date every day, record the date, know what day it is today, what day it will be tomorrow, and also know whether it was sunny or rainy, cold or hot last year."
The four of them looked up and saw Yao Xiaoqing walking in with two women. They said uneasily: "Qing Wu, we..."
Yao Xiaoqing smiled and said: "It's okay. You haven't seen it before. It's normal to be curious."
The four of them breathed a sigh of relief and sat there honestly, waiting for her to ask questions.
Yao Xiaoqing looked at the few people and said, "You have been here for a few days, are you still used to it?"
Huo Zhang nodded cautiously, "Get used to it, it's very good here."
Yao Xiaoqing looked at their reserved looks and smiled, "Okay, if you don't understand anything, you can ask the people in the tribe and they will tell you."
The four people responded in unison: "Yes, Qing Wu."
"You guys are busy, I'll look around as you please." Yao Xiaoqing said.
She walked around the yard and saw some old ladies and women weaving straw sandals and some weaving bamboo baskets. The children gathered around them, helping to pass straw ropes and bamboo strips.
Most of them are clean, but some have sloppy habits and have hair like a chicken coop.
Yao Xiaoqing went to another courtyard and saw the warriors and the old uncle digging wooden basins, with half-grown boys helping. She looked around and returned to the tribe.
As soon as we arrived at the entrance of the canteen, Shan'am came to us with a woman, "Xiaoqing, this is the elm tree. She was exchanged from the cow tribe."
Yao Xiaoqing glanced at the nervous Yushu and said, "Go to the cafeteria and talk."
Shan'am nodded, and the three of them entered the canteen together.
Yao Xiaoqing glanced at Yushu, who was holding the corner of his clothes, and pointed to the stool in front of him, "Don't be nervous, sit down and talk."
Yushu sat down carefully and looked up at her, "Qingsha, yesterday a few sisters and I sent bamboo strips out, and they said that people in the Niu tribe were starving to death. I want to ask you to help me ask, is my mother still here?"
Alive?"
Speaking of this, Yushu's eyes turned red and he looked up at Yao Xiaoqing, "Qingsha, don't worry, I won't do anything to disgrace the tribe. My mother is very good to me. She only has me and nothing else."
Yao Xiaoqing understood her mood and looked at her gently, "I believe you. What's your mother's name? I'll ask someone to ask it for you."
"My mother's name is Hong." Yushu stood up and saluted Yao Xiaoqing, "Thank you Qingsha, thank you! I will work hard."
Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "Okay, I'll ask someone to help you find out."
"Yeah!" Yushu left happily.
Watching the elm tree go away, Shan Amu said to Yao Xiaoqing: "The woman who came back from the Niu tribe knew that someone in the Niu tribe had starved to death. The few women whose mothers were still there were very worried. She came to me, and I
Brought her here."
Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "It's understandable, that's the grandma who gave birth to them. They have food and drink, but grandma is starving and freezing. If you don't know, forget it, but if you know, you don't care. We should be afraid of people like this. You
Go and ask a few women whose mothers are still here, and help them ask together."
"Alas!" Shan Amu sighed, "Xiaoqing, it's in vain to ask. On days like this, food from other tribes is given to warriors, young women, and half-grown children. Most of them are old.
They're all starving to death."
Yao Xiaoqing felt a little sour in her heart, "Let's ask first! Give them food in exchange for those who are alive, Shanyang will be happy."
Shan'am nodded, "I'll go and ask."
Yao Xiaoqing and Shan Amu left the cafeteria together, went home and saw that Yao Hu was not there. They found Shan Amu's house and saw him and Dashi talking. They turned around and went back to the house to get a notebook and start counting.
There are about eighty young women in the tribe plus those from the Qingshan tribe, sixty-five warriors plus Jiang Li, there are still five old ladies, and twenty-two old uncles. Children of all sizes plus
There were about twenty of them up.
Seventy-three people surrendered, and a total of 128 people were accepted from the four tribes. Among them, there were 62 warriors, six old uncles, seven old mothers, sixteen children, and fourteen unmatched girls.
, there were twenty-three women who were matched, and now there are more than three hundred people in the tribe.
In addition to the meat obtained from this hunt, I don’t have to worry about food anymore. I look forward to the weather getting warmer soon and take advantage of the summer and autumn to plant some millet and pumpkins. Just in case, it is best to build some greenhouses...
"Xiaoqing, Xiaoqing!" Shan Amu's voice came from the yard.
Yao Xiaoqing put down the pen and paper and walked to the yard, "Amu, have you asked clearly?"
Shan'am nodded, "Let's ask clearly. We don't need to go over there to ask. Shan Yang from the Niu Tribe, along with several tribal leaders, said they want to see you."
Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "Let's go!" The two of them walked to the reception room together.
Shan Amu said: "Xiaoqing, there are five other women's mothers here. If we ask Shanyang to trade for them, will Shanyang ask us for a lot of food?"
"Go over and see what they are doing." Yao Xiaoqing said.
****
In the courtyard of the reception room, Shan Yang and the leaders looked at Huo and Amon with envy, "It's better for you! The Yaoshan tribe has lived a good life, look at us, ugh!"
They looked at Shanyang and the others who had lost a lot of weight compared to the previous few days. They looked like savages in the mountains. It seemed that they really had no food to eat.
Amon smiled and said, "Leader Hui, you are still the leader now! What are you doing with the Green Witch?"
Hui gave him a stern look, "We heard that the Yaoshan tribe had hunted a lot of meat and wanted to borrow some food from Qingwu."
He looked at Amon and felt regretful. He should have given up his position as leader a few days ago and joined the Yaoshan tribe. Now he didn't have to worry about running out of food.
