Going through ancient farming to engage in infrastructure construction

Chapter 26 Chapter 26
The morning sun passed through the heavy clouds, reflecting the tumbling morning fog, and the outlines of the surrounding scenery gradually became clear.

Yao Xiaoqing looked at the tall wooden fences, the tall mountain forests, and these ancient relatives.

She looked at the sky and said silently in her heart: Dad, Mom, Big Brother, I have a family in another world, don't worry, I will live a good life.

Yaohu saw Yao Xiaoqing standing there blankly looking at the sky with tears in her eyes, thinking she missed her mother.Walked over and said in a gentle voice, "Xiaoqing, are you tired! Go eat some food and have a good sleep."

Yao Xiaoqing looked at Yaohu's red eyes and loving eyes after staying up late, smiled and pointed to the fenced yard, "Father, I'm not tired, now you can sleep peacefully and have a good night's sleep."

Yaohu smiled and nodded, looking at her proudly, "Yes! Go to sleep if you're not tired."

Yao Xiaoqing nodded with a smile, "Okay, you can go to bed too."

Yaohu asked everyone to go to bed for a while, he walked to the gate of the courtyard, held the wooden door with a wooden stick, and pulled it hard, but the door didn't move at all. He smiled in relief, turned around and went back to sleep.

This time, everyone slept until it was three poles in the sun before getting up to make something to eat.

Yao Xiaoqing took everyone to dig a lot of small thorny shrubs in the forest, and planted thorn roses and roses around the fence.

Standing on the slope and looking from a distance, the platform is covered by trees on all sides. If you don’t go to the foot of the mountain, you can’t see that there are people living below.

The group went down the mountain and returned to the yard. Hua dug out the finished clay pots from the ashes and dragged Yao Xiaoqing to the new pots she made.

Yao Xiaoqing saw that she drew flower and bird patterns on the jars. Those exaggerated and simple patterns were so similar to the ancient objects she saw when she visited the primitive man ruins.

I didn't expect that I would witness these works with my own eyes and become a member of them.

Seeing that her eyes were in a trance, Hua asked uneasily, "Xiaoqing, don't the flowers and birds on it look pretty?"

Yao Xiaoqing came back to her senses, smiled and said, "It's very beautiful, you can do whatever you like!"

Seeing her smile, Hua smiled reassuringly, "Oh! Then I'll go make jars."

"Hua, I'll draw a picture for you." Yao Xiaoqing drew a large vat and several kinds of pots and plates for her.

Hua saw the new look and went to do it happily.

Looking at Hua's back, Yao Xiaoqing thought to himself: Although the people here have had a hard time, everyone is working hard to live and learn new things with heart.A little bit of good food can make them jump for joy.

Thinking of the good conditions in the previous life, I often moaned without illness. It seems that God punished me to feel what hardship is.

Yao Xiaoqing pointed to the gentle slope at the door and said to Yaohu: "Father, let's dig a few steps out here."

"Okay, tell Father, how do you dig the steps you mentioned?"

Ever since the fence and courtyard gate were repaired last night, Yaohu has believed in his daughter's words. I'm afraid he will believe Yao Xiaoqing's saying that the sun will rise from the west.

Yao Xiaoqing used the engineering shovel to draw the first step at the foot of the mountain. As soon as he pried out the first shovel, Mu Feng snatched the engineering shovel over, "Xiaoqing, bro, you know how to dig it. Watch me dig it. It's not right for you to teach me."

"Okay." Yao Xiaoqing stood there waiting for him to finish digging, and then drew the second step. Seeing that Mufeng already understood how to dig the steps, he handed over the digging to the father and son.

Yao Xiaoqing found a few stones of similar shape and size, moved them back and placed them at the gate of the courtyard, both as a threshold and to block the gap at the gate.

It took more than an hour for the father and son to dig more than ten steps.

The father and son returned to the yard, and the three began to build the bamboo shed.

Yao Xiaoqing asked Yaohu and Mufeng to build bamboo sheds against the cliffs on both sides of the cave entrance, measured with their feet, and found that five small bamboo sheds for sleeping could be built on both sides of the cave entrance.

With the experience of building the fence and wooden door last night, the father and son went down the mountain to find some wood and came back to make the pillars and the door of the bamboo shed.

While Yaohu and Mufeng were sawing wood, Yao Xiaoqing took bamboo pieces to measure the length, width and height of the bamboo shed, estimated the slope of the bamboo shed, fixed the size of the bamboo shed, and cut the bamboo shed. The film was handed over to Yaohu.

Tell Yaohu that the longest piece of bamboo is the size of the cliff face, the door head and the width in turn, so that the bamboo shed built will have a certain slope, and rainwater will not accumulate on the roof of the shed in rainy days.

Under the guidance of Yao Xiaoqing, father and son, they quickly built a bamboo shed with wood, bamboo poles, bamboo slices and vines, and made a bamboo bed and bamboo door out of bamboo.

Yaohu looked at the small bamboo shed that had been built, and said to Yao Xiaoqing with a proud smile on his face: "Xiaoqing, I have seen such a house in the Dawu tribe, and theirs is not as good as ours."

Yao Xiaoqing looked at Yaohu, "Father, are all the people in the Dawu tribe so smart?"

Yaohu shook his head and nodded again, "They are very powerful. I heard from others that the bamboo shed was built by Yan Yu, the son of their leader."

It seems that the son of the leader of the Dawu tribe has a good brain. When will he go to Qiushan to see what the Dawu tribe is like?
Yao Xiaoqing said to Yaohu: "Father, the roof of the bamboo shed should be covered with something so that it will not leak when it rains."

Yaohu turned to look at her, "What kind of cover do you use? Tell Father, I'll find it for you."

There is neither wheat stalk nor straw here, and I have never seen cattail grass, so what can be used to cover the top?

Yao Xiaoqing suddenly remembered that there was a lot of thatch by the pond, "Father, Mu Feng and I went to the pond to cut thatch and come back to cover it."

Yaohu nodded, "Go!"

The brother and sister went to the pond to cut some bundles of thatch and came back.

Lay the thatch tightly on the bamboo sheets one by one without leaving any gaps, and then clamp and tie them tightly with a bamboo sheet.

Layers are laid on the roof of the bamboo shed. Standing in the bamboo shed and looking up, you can't find a ray of light through the thatched roof, and you're done.

Using the remaining thatch, I also spread a layer on both sides of the bamboo shed, and a simple bamboo shed was built.

Mu Feng smirked and said to Yao Hu: "Father, I want to live in this kind of house too."

Yaohu looked at him with a smile all over his face, "Okay, I'll take one for you too."

Yao Xiaoqing pointed to the open space beside the bamboo shed, "Mufeng's bamboo shed is right next to me."

"Okay." Yaohu looked at the siblings and nodded lovingly.The family of three is busy again.

Shan Amu, Hua Hua and Yun Amu carried a bag of wild vegetables on their backs, carrying a dozen duck eggs and water bird eggs, walked to the foot of the mountain, stepped on the steps to enter the door, saw the bamboo shed built at the entrance of the cave, and walked in curiously , Touch east and west.

Hua looked at Yao Xiaoqing, "Xiaoqing, is this the house you mentioned?"

Yao Xiaoqing shook her head with a smile, "This is not a house, this is a bamboo shed. The house is built with bricks and tiles."

Shan Amu felt that such a shed could not resist wild animals at all.

"I don't like this kind of house. I still like caves. Living in such a house is scary."

Yun Amu nodded in agreement, "Xiaoqing, I'm afraid too, I'd better live in a cave."

Seeing the fear of the two, Yao Xiaoqing knew that they couldn't accept it for a while, and felt that such a shed was not safe.

If there is no outer courtyard wall, she would not dare to live outside the cave.

"Em, don't worry, it's not for you to live in. You still live in the cave."

The two breathed a sigh of relief, "Oh! Let's go cook the food then."

When it was getting dark, the people who felled the trees came back, and most of them were not interested in living in a bamboo shed. Only the pig felt that living in a bamboo shed should be more comfortable than a cave.
