Ordinary days in another world

Chapter 2

Kiki left after not staying long, and he was going back to prepare things for the partner ceremony tomorrow.

After Qiqi left, Jiang Xia checked herself carefully from top to bottom. At least from the outside, she was a female, but not the female mentioned here, but a female with the same body as a woman on earth.Maybe there is something special about the father of this body, which caused their combination to mutate, making Charlotte special.But it is more beneficial to her, at least she doesn't have to do what the females here do with the body of a man on earth.Maybe the inside of this body will be different, but she doesn't have time to think about it so far, as long as she has a healthy body, she can survive.

It's just that Qiqi said before leaving that the partner ceremony at noon tomorrow made her a little distressed, because it is said that she also participated in this partner ceremony.

Jiang Xia felt that her physical strength was gradually recovering, so she took a deep breath and walked out of the room slowly.The sun was hanging slantingly on the horizon, and the sun was half covered by a few pieces of sunset glow, and the light was much dimmer than when I just woke up.Standing in front of the house, Jiang Xia realized that her house was more than one house, not just their house, most of the neighbors living around were structures with only one small house next to the big house.Her house is a big house with a small house on each side.All the houses are made of wood, Jiang Xia took a look at the two huts.The two huts are not the same size, the smaller one is cruder, the walls on all sides are not very close, and occasionally the wind can blow in through the cracks in the trees.In the middle of the room is a fire surrounded by stones. There are three wooden supports on the fire, and a shallow clay pot is hung on the support.There was a faint fire in the fire, and there was still some broth in the earthen pot that was slightly steaming. The broth she just ate came from here. Two pieces of meat and the fur of some unknown animals were hung on the wall of the hut.It looks like a kitchen.

In contrast, the hut on the other side is more tidy, with many small clay pots and various bougainvilleas in it. Reminiscent of Qiqi’s saying that Ai Wen studied with the tribe’s witch doctor, those flowers and plants should be herbal medicines Yes, the pharmacy?
There is no sign of Ai Wen in the two huts, Jiang Xia is a little anxious, she still has a lot to know, and Ai Wen should be the person she can rely on and trust most here, after all, no mother would want to hurt herself child.

"Charlotte, are you okay?" Jiang Xia turned her head, and an old man with silver hair came out of the nearest room to them, with a gentle voice, "Ai Wen went fishing by the river, let me take care of you, you just Rest well at home, he should be back in a while." Jiang Xia didn't know what to call the visitor, afraid of saying the wrong thing, nodded hurriedly, and returned to the house as if fleeing.Seeing this, the old man shook his head, "It's still so timid, it's really hard for Ai Wen." He went into his room while muttering.

Jiang Xia didn't plan to go out again, just stayed in the room and waited for Ai Wen.Judging by the performance of the neighbors, although they only have two people living together, life is not too sad.As far as she knows, people with medical skills in the ancient tribe should be more respected, and the place where they live is not the worst. Just look at her snow-white, red and tender skin, and you will know that the mother-in-law of this body has indeed done his best. She worked hard to take care of her children, but she didn't know why the previous Charlotte disappeared.

In the original world, Jiang Xia has been living alone since she was in college, without the love of her parents, and the care of her relatives. Although it is very hard, she still allows herself to live well, and it will be the same here.

"Charlotte, Charlotte, look at my father-in-law caught a lot of fish, let's cook fish soup at night, fish soup is the most nourishing for the body!" Jiang Xia heard her mother-in-law and Qiqi's character before anyone saw her. It seems that this may be one of the reasons why Charlotte regards Kiki as a good friend.

Ai Wen directly took the fish into the small room next door, raised half of it in water, and cleaned up the rest to cook fish soup.Jiang Xia came out following the sound, and happened to see Ai Wen coming out of the hut with two fish in one hand and a bone knife in the other, and she couldn't laugh or cry.

Ai Wen, who was kicked out by her before she could see clearly at noon, has changed a lot from the beauty she saw at the beginning.The long hair that was neatly tied behind the head was messy, and a blade of grass was stuck in the hair. The short boots were dry. They were probably placed on the shore when they entered the water. The calf-length linen clothes were soaked from the waist down. , just smiled at her unkemptly, "Can Charlotte get out of bed and walk around? After you drink the fish soup, your body will recover soon," said as he began to clean up the fish in his hand, and kept saying "I I have told the people in the tribe that fish soup is good for health, but if they don’t listen, it’s because they don’t know how to make it. Father Mu made it for you, remember it, it’s delicious!”

Jiang Xia walked up to Ai Wen and said, "I'll help you." Since she wants to live here, she still needs to learn the basic skills of life. As far as she knows, the primitive society is very backward, and she often doesn't have enough to eat. As long as it can be used Everything that survives must be used.

Ai Wen raised her head, with a surprised expression on her face, "Hey, I don't need you, just stand by and watch. It's very troublesome to clean up, and it's easy to scratch your hands."

Well, it is estimated that the original Charlotte is still a young lady who doesn't touch Yang Chunshui with ten fingers, and Jiang Xia doesn't force it. She just watches from the side and chats with Ai Wen from time to time.

"Qiqi is gone, did he tell you? Xinya and the others speak too badly. Is my health not good..." Jiang Xia said tentatively.

Ai Wen immediately stopped what she was doing when she heard that, and looked up angrily, "Xinya and the other little females are too much, don't worry, Father Mu will teach them a lesson. Don't worry about your body all the time. , your body is really fine, my father is a witch doctor, you should believe what I say, I will not harm my child."

It seems that he knows that this body is special, but it shouldn't be a bad thing. "But my body is different from Qiqi's and the others. Qiqi also said that I will participate in the partner ceremony tomorrow. How can I choose a partner like this?" Jiang Xia took the opportunity to say, it is best not to let her go, just like that Let's live forever, she doesn't want to find a wild beast as her husband.

Ai Wen was in a hurry, so she put down the fish in her hand, pulled Jiang Xia into the house, and told her very solemnly, "Charlotte, you can't have such an idea. Originally, the clan didn't want you to go. I called the great witch doctor Together with the patriarch, you made a guarantee with the high priest, and told her that there are orcs who are willing to accept you as a partner, and the high priest decided to let you participate in tomorrow's partner ceremony. You have to listen to my father, you know?"

Jiang Xia is speechless, I don't need your help with this.The beast or something is horrible.No matter how Jiang Xia insinuated, Ai Wen didn't respond, and she was determined to let Jiang Xia participate in tomorrow's partner ceremony.Jiang Xia could only press her mind first.

When it was getting dark, Jiang Xia ate his second meal since coming to another world.The fish soup is very delicious, even though only salt is used as seasoning, the taste is still very delicious.When Jiang Xia was cooking with Ai Wen, she learned that there was salt here, and she thought that the orcs got the salt from the blood of animals.However, the tribes do not produce salt themselves, and have to exchange things with tribes that can make salt, so salt is still a relatively precious thing.Fearing that she would be caught by fishbone, Jiang Xia's bowl contained large pieces of fish directly picked out by Ai Wen. Ai Wen herself was not afraid of fishbone, she was not only proficient but also delicious.

Later, Jiang Xia casually asked Ai Wen why he likes to eat fish so much, but Ai Wen was very sad.

I don't know what else is hidden here.

After dinner, the surroundings were quiet, and there were beasts howling from time to time, and the sound was far away.The moonlight was bright and bright, but the room quickly darkened.However, it seems that in order to adapt to the environment, the eyesight of the orcs is very developed. Jiang Xia found that her eyes can see the surrounding environment clearly, as if wearing luminous glasses.Ai Wen didn't know where to take out a shiny stone, and the room suddenly lit up.

"Clean it up quickly, save the fluorite." Ai Wen ordered while preparing water.

Jiang Xia suddenly realized that she was in an embarrassing situation now, how could she forget that the two lived together.Ai Wen took care of her carefully before, which made her feel like she had found an elder, because thinking that Ai Wen is a female, and she is tall and beautiful, she subconsciously reminded her of her young mother when she was a child, and there is no taboo about gender.

Thinking about it now, did her mind become dull after she passed through?Although Ai Wen is a female, her body is that of a male on Earth, why didn't she remember it.Although according to the statement here, both of them are female or muzi, Jiang Xia's movements are still stiff.

Before Jiang Xia could muster up her courage, Ai Wen put down the pottery basin filled with water, turned around and walked towards the door, "You can wash in the house, you just got sick, so you can't go to the stream." Well, she was worried is a bit redundant.

When the two of them were lying on the bed, Jiang Xia had already prepared her mentally. This is Ewen's father, and even this body was born by someone else. They are the same person, so treat him as a woman.

After sleeping too much during the day, Jiang Xia doesn't want to sleep at all now.Thinking of the day when Ewen's father said that there was an orc willing to take her, he asked Ewen about the orc's situation based on the principle of knowing himself and the enemy.

"Oh, it's Cyrus, he is one of the warriors in the tribe. Cyrus is honest, handsome, and has outstanding abilities. Many females like him and are willing to be a partner with him. If you see him, you must Will love him."

I always thought it was just talk, but I didn't expect someone to be chosen.Jiang Xia wondered why someone would jump in knowing that there was a problem, "Does he know that I have a special body?"

Ai Wen said, "How can a female's body be seen casually by a male, and she is still a strange male!"

"Then aren't we cheating?"

Ai Wen was in a hurry, "There is no deception. Although your body is special, but you can have sex and have children, how can it be considered deception!"

Jiang Xia was covered in black lines by Ai Wen's words, don't be so straightforward, okay? After thinking about it, ancient people are so direct, and this is also their instinct to reproduce.

Jiang Xia became even more skeptical. Since Xinya would use her body as an argument, it proved that there must be no rumors in the tribe. She didn't believe that the orc didn't know anything about her in advance.Since the qualifications of that man named Cyrus are so good, there is no reason why we must choose her, and it’s not because they have deep feelings for each other. He has no doubts at all, and he still plans to marry me?" But she heard Qiqi say that Xinya said that she was different from them, that she was born with a defect, that she was cursed by the beast god, and that she didn't help anyone when she reached adulthood. An orc incarnation, a female who cannot bear children.Although Ai Wen said that she is fine, don't other people have any worries when they hear this?

Facing his son's questioning eyes, Ewen's voice became smaller and smaller, "Okay, let me tell you, I once saved Cyrus' father..."

"so?"

"The biggest advantage of Cyrus is that he is very filial..."

"and then……."

"So I talked to him and asked him to repay me, and he agreed to choose you as his partner."

Jiang Xia closed her eyes, what kind of trouble was she trying to ask for retribution!She almost wanted to yell that Ewen is mighty!
"Haven't you ever thought that he was forced to agree to your request, and later felt that he didn't like me, and would abuse me in turn?"

Ai Wen seemed to hear something incredible, "How is it possible, males who dare to abuse females will be severely punished, and Cyrus is very kind, even if he doesn't like you, he will take good care of you."

I dare you to bully people because they are honest, right?Having said that, are there any parents who are so straightforward?Jiang Xia felt that she was going to lose her mind.

"I can support myself. Didn't you bring me up alone? Or are you just so eager to kick me out?" As soon as the aggressive method came out and killed everyone, there was nothing to say now.

"No, that's because I have always loved your father, and I have a lovely child like you. I have never heard of any newly grown female clamoring to be celibate. Father Mu spent a lot of effort to let you participate in the companionship. For the ceremony, you must find yourself a partner."

Speaking of this, the conversation changed, "Charlotte, I know you have suffered a lot of grievances, so you don't trust others, and you don't trust feelings very much. Father Mu doesn't want to drive you out of the house, but just hopes that there will be one more person to take care of you .When one day I go to see the Beast God, you will also have the company of relatives by your side."

The last sentence touched Jiang Xia's nerves, and she couldn't speak anymore.

"Besides, the partner ceremony must be blessed by the beast god. If the high priest finds out that you are not suitable to be a partner, you can still come back. No one will force you." Ai Wen threw the last straw, and Jiang Xia felt that she should not believe it. I don't know which kind of fairy beast god it is, it's better to believe in yourself, tomorrow I have to take a step and see.After all, can't she completely disobey Ai Wen's words and run away from home?I don't know the way, but I heard that females are very precious. If they are plundered by some orcs outside, the end will be even worse, and she has no ability to survive in the wild.If he had the choice, he might as well transmigrating into an orc, at least he could support himself.

Early the next morning, Ai Wen woke her up, let her eat by herself, and hurried out of the house.Just after breakfast, Qiqi came to her bouncing around in a new dress.

Compared to Jiang Xia's distress, Qiqi was very happy and a little excited, "Xia Xia, why haven't you prepared yet? Look, this is the new clothes my mother gave me early in the morning. This colorful belt It was my father who traded it for a whole curvy antelope." It is not easy for an orc to have a child, and Qiqi is the only parent, and he will give him all the good things.

Jiang Xia couldn't see any difference in the clothes here, she had never seen what the orcs wore, but the females around her these two days, including herself, were all wearing light linen linen clothes, with the top and bottom in one piece Yes, the waist is tied with a cloth strip in the middle. Because of the weather, the upper body has sleeves, and the lower body is usually below the knees.

I don't know how the linen is woven, and it's quite comfortable to wear next to the body, but there is a vacuum under the clothes. Due to the change of body, Jiang Xia didn't pay attention at first, but she almost fainted when she found out. The ancients were too uninhibited to make themselves underwear for a while.

Jiang Xia didn't know how to comment on Qiqi's new clothes, but in her opinion, they were newer than yesterday's clothes, and the most special thing was the colorful belt, which made her waist look slimmer. "If you still have this kind of colorful ribbon, you can replace the hair tie with a colored ribbon, it will look more energetic." Jiang Xia suggested while walking around Qiqi.

"Ah, why didn't I think of that, Xia Xia, I'll go back and change it, see you later, you have to prepare quickly." Qiqi is very used to calling her Xia Xia.

Jiang Xia smiled wryly, feeling at a loss for the future for the first time.

Ai Wen came back and brought Jiang Xia a new suit.He had already prepared the linen for making clothes. As a female, she was good at medical treatment and cooking, but she was really not good at making clothes.As the most important ceremonial dress in a son's life, it must be made by the best female in the tribe.For this set of clothes, he sent out several packs of medicinal materials.

Jiang Xia took the clothes, and after a closer look, she had to admit that it was not easy to make them so beautiful with limited resources.Seeing her son's glowing eyes, Ai Wen was very proud, "I just said it's very beautiful, and I drew the style of the clothes." Jiang Xia had no choice but to change the clothes with a bright expression begging for praise.The light hemp-colored dress also has mid-sleeves, and the neckline is lowered so as not to be too revealing. The original tightening at the waist has been changed upwards, and the hem has also been widened, making the whole dress closer to a high-waisted skirt a feeling of.It would be a bit awkward if it was worn by a female here, but Jiang Xia is a girl, and she can wear this dress even without wearing any skirt. The clothes are very elegant when she walks around, as if the clothes came to life on her body.

"Sure enough, only my son is the most beautiful in clothes."

While Jiang Xia was concerned about the content of Ai Wen's words, she was also worried about the ceremony she was about to attend.

"The partner ceremony is held at the sacrificial altar. Only the patriarch, the high priest, and married females and orcs can participate. I will wait for you at home. You will be with Qiqi later. Don't be afraid, just listen to him."

No matter how you look at it, Jiang Xia thinks he looks like a mother sending her daughter to a beauty pageant.
