Farming in Primitive Society

Chapter 25

Mu Xiaohua chatted happily with Cheng and Nuo. When Ah Ran saw Cheng and Mu Xiaohua talking and laughing, she felt dazzled, and her face changed immediately, but she quickly adjusted her expression again, raised her smile and talked with the three of them. Saying hello, but secretly making calculations in my heart.

"Cheng, you are back!" Ah Ran jumped to Cheng's side with a happy smile, "I heard that you went to the bamboo forest and wanted to find you. By the way, what is the use of cutting this bamboo?"

Cheng and Mu Xiaohua looked at each other, and replied with a usual smile: "It's for making bamboo baskets."

"Bamboo basket?" A Ran's eyes widened in surprise, "What is a bamboo basket?"

"Use bamboo to make a basket for holding things." Cheng replied patiently.

"Oh!" Ah Ran was stunned, looking at Cheng with bright eyes, "Did you learn it from outside? Then how do you do it?"

Cheng took a look at Mu Xiaohua and smiled very softly: "I didn't learn it from outside, and I don't know how to do it either. This is Xiaohua's idea."

The light in Ah Ran's eyes slowly faded, she nodded slowly, glanced at Mu Xiaohua, then looked at the undisguised appreciation in Mu Xiaohua's eyes, the alarm bells rang in her heart, they have only known each other for a few days?Cheng's line of sight was occupied by her, and if this continues, Cheng's heart will probably have to be devoted to her.

This woman couldn't be kept, the cruelty flashed in Ah Ran's eyes, and she had to find a way to drive her away, after all, she didn't belong to their tribe in the first place.

After making up her mind, Ah Ran felt much more relaxed and happy, walking beside Cheng, chatting about interesting things, and then asked Cheng about what he had seen and heard about going out this time, and couldn't help but glance at Mu Xiaohua Later, she felt wronged and complained: "Cheng, when you come back this time, you spend time with Xiaohua whenever you have time, and it's not like talking with me about what you saw and heard outside before."

Cheng smiled lightly and said: "Actually, there is nothing new and interesting to say when I go out this time, but Xiaohua has a lot of interesting ideas."

Ah Ran kept her mouth shut and didn't say anything else, Cheng San's words never leaving Xiao Hua made her feel very unhappy.

Mu Xiaohua and the others went out at around seven o'clock, and they only went out for more than two hours. When they came back, it happened to be their spare time after busy work in the morning. Aran followed them to Chan's house very naturally.

When Mu Xiaohua and the others returned home, Can and Yu had already returned and were making washbasins, Shi was being pulled by Amei to play a game of kicking stones, and Lie was earnestly chiseling wood to make buckets.

When they came back, they stopped what they were doing and greeted them.

Ah Mei was even more excited and said to Mu Xiaohua: "Sister Xiaohua, Brother Yutong came to our tribe today riding a tiger. It's really impressive! It's a pity you didn't see it."

"Yu Tong came to our tribe?" Cheng asked in surprise, "What are you doing?"

"Nothing." Ah Mei shook her head, "He just walked from the top to the bottom, turned around and then went back."

The ten tribes of the Moya Forest surround the Moya Forest in a semicircle. The Chashan tribe is at the bottom. Coming down from the top means coming down from the altar. There is a fork on the left that goes out of the tribe.

"Turn around and go back?" Cheng Shensi looked incomprehensible, Yutong is not the kind of person who just wanders around, he must have a purpose when he goes to a place, so why did he come to the Chashan Tribe Woolen cloth?

"He didn't go to anyone's house and didn't talk to anyone?" Cheng Wen's gaze swept from Ah Mei's face to Lie's face.

The three shook their heads: "No."

"Is there anything special about that?"

The three looked at each other and shook their heads: "Nothing special."

Lie said: "He just sat on the tiger's back and walked down slowly, and went back to our mountain."

"Forget it, don't think about it." Nuo Jiancheng still looked puzzled, "He's probably just walking around bored! If there is any purpose, we can't guess."

"Yeah." Cheng nodded, "Forget it, let's make bamboo baskets!"

On the way here, Mu Xiaohua had already told them in detail how to break the bamboo pieces. Putting Yutong's question aside, the two started to break the bamboo.

"Xiao Hua, what are you holding in your hand?" Lie asked curiously, and the others also looked at Mu Xiaohua's hand curiously.

Mu Xiaohua had no choice but to introduce cassava lily again.

The cassava was brought along with the vines. Can took a closer look and said, "There is a small hillside on the west side of the mountain that has grown a lot."

"Really?" Mu Xiaohua asked in surprise, "No mistake, right?"

Can looked at Fujie again and said affirmatively, "That's right, it's this kind of Fujie."

"Okay, let's go take a look this afternoon."

There is not much millet left in the Can family, and they can eat for half a month at most, and there are at least four months before the millet matures. They have no money, and it is too stressful to live only by hunting.

If there is enough cassava to make starch to make steamed cakes, it can solve the dietary problem for a period of time. However, in this case, a very important question arises, that is how to steam?
Iron has not been discovered in this world, how can steam cakes be steamed without a wok?We can use large shallow clay pots instead of iron pots, but the problem is that they are all deep clay pots now. If you want shallow clay pots, you have to order them from the pottery maker. If you order them, you will need a lot more money. They are so poor that they don't even have a penny!

I want to change to a big clay pot at the rally tomorrow, but I still don't know what to replace it with!Originally, she wanted to change the bowl, but Mu Xiaohua decided to make it out of wood herself!Can save a little is a little.

After crossing over, she has been busy all the time, and Mu Xiaohua feels very helpless, she is really born to work hard!

The others were busy outside, and Mu Xiaohua went back to the cave to look through the meat that was drying, because she wanted to come in from time to time to have a look. The meat was roasted very well, and Mu Xiaohua was very satisfied.

There are not many sparks left. Mu Xiaohua shoveled some sparks from the wood-burning fire on the other side and added them. Then I looked at the slow-cooked pork belly. It is very fragrant and very good. It will take some time to be ready. Take the original clay pot Stew things with fire, the taste is extra fragrant.

After dealing with all this, Mu Xiaohua took a pot to the well to wash the cassava and lilies. She remembered that in the original world, the man-made cassava was planted in spring and harvested only in November and December. Now the cassava is only harvested in June. Some surprises, originally she just tried to dig, but she didn't expect it to happen, she couldn't explain it, maybe it was wild for a long time?
Mu Xiaohua never likes to delve into things that can’t be figured out. Anyway, there is cassava to eat, but cassava is somewhat poisonous. As far as artificially grown cassava is concerned, there are sweet cassava and bitter cassava. Artificially grown sweet cassava is non-toxic and can be eaten directly. Baked and eaten or peeled, boiled and steamed, bitter cassava is poisonous, so peel it clean and soak it in clean water for two days, and change the water frequently in between.

Now this wild cassava is sweet cassava, but because it is wild, for safety reasons, Mu Xiaohua decided to soak it in clear water until the evening before cooking and eating. The quantity is limited and not roasted. Now it depends on the harvest in Xishan in the afternoon.
