Ordinary days in another world

Chapter 51

Turning miscellaneous thoughts into appetite, Jiang Xia ate a pottery bowl full of broth and two roasted sweet potatoes for lunch, and her belly was round, and now even Ai Wen began to feel uneasy, "Xia Xia, have you been eating so much lately?" ?”

Jiang Xia's face is a bit hot. Sometimes after being entangled with Ares for a long time, if he misses the meal, he will be hungrier than usual, and he will always eat a little more afterwards.But yesterday they were sleeping honestly, and it might be that they had done a little more work this morning, so they were just hungry. Fat, don't you always think I'm too thin?"

Ai Wen took a closer look at her son again, and it was no different from usual, but because of more outdoor activities than before, her fair face was more rosy and more pink and moist, so she settled down and said, "I should eat more It's a bit rounder, and it's easier to get pregnant. But if you feel uncomfortable or different from usual, you can come to me immediately, you know?"

"Father Mu, I'm really fine. I'm not a child anymore, and I will take care of myself. As for the child's affairs, let nature take its course. There is a lack of food in winter, and it's still so cold. Spring and summer are better. , don’t think about it so much.” Jiang Xia’s eyes were dizzy, although Ares was always confident that she could conceive a baby after having sex, but in her opinion, it was very difficult for the females here to conceive a baby , The two are together every day, and she has not taken any contraceptive measures, and she is still not pregnant, so there are some things that cannot be rushed.

"What do you know? Children born in winter will be stronger. Children who have experienced severe cold and can grow up healthily are better than children born in other seasons. Why don't you understand anything? It seems that I still have to Tell Ares that the little orcs you give birth to will be taken care of by him from an early age, and you can’t forget to educate them strictly because you love them.” At the end, he also gave Jiang Xia a ready-made example, Ares was born in winter Yes, Charlotte was born in Xia Tian, ​​Jiang Xia has black lines all over her head, there should be no comparison between the two, right? "Why do you think the females in the tribe are so interested in the prescription for assisted pregnancy? They just hope that they can give birth to healthy little orcs in winter."

Jiang Xia didn't say a word, she could understand it rationally, but she still couldn't accept it in her heart.In the modern age where only children are common, whose children are not protected like baby eggs, always afraid of being cold, hungry, hot, thirsty.Here is just the opposite. As far as Jiang Xia knows, most families also have one more child, and the children here will be more difficult and precious, but people will not spoil their children at all. I love her so much, but I still don't mind the child being born in the cold and barren winter. It can only show that the performance of natural selection here is obviously more intuitive. Maybe the children born in the future will be taken care of by Ares?But what if she has no resistance to pets like cats and dogs?It will definitely hurt my heart.

stop!Jiang Xia was ashamed of her deviation, and repeatedly reminded herself that it was a child, not a pet...that was her and Ares' child, not a kitten and a tiger, woo, can she really be a qualified mother?Jiang Xia doubts this very much...

In the end, for some reason, Ai Wenmu's father decided that during the days when Ares was not at home, he would go to accompany Jiang Xia every night and have lunch with Jiang Xia. He didn't say why, but He left a sentence inscrutable, "I am only responsible for watching you come back from Ares. When Ares comes back, it doesn't matter how crazy you two think... Haha..." Well, these words are not profound at all. It's not funny either.

At the end of the first day, Jiang Xia pickled a total of more than 20 round deer, and the storage room was already full. According to this progress, the remaining quantity should be replenished in four days.Jiang Xia heaved a sigh of relief. Ai Wen's father really came to their house at night, but he only wanted to sleep in the living room and resolutely refused to share the bed with Jiang Xia.

"Xia Xia, Ares won't want him to come back from a long trip, and there will be more female scents on the bed at home, which will disappoint him~"

...Jiang Xia guessed that maybe because she was a married person, her father-in-law became more and more open when talking to her.Perhaps this is the temperament that a female of the orc tribe should have?Or was her Ewen's father originally such a free and easy temperament?
In addition to the daily routine of hoarding prey, Jiang Xia began to think of ways to prepare containers that could transport food.Ai Wenmu's father's company every day, on the contrary, let Jiang Xia learn a lot of valuable experience.There are three priorities for the migration of the tribe: emptying the caves where they live in winter; sending a large number of orcs to transport food for the winter; and finally, the unified migration of the tribe.

The first step is already underway, but now it seems that the second step is more difficult. After all, the clansmen have the legs to obey orders and can move forward by themselves.It is a big project to safely transport the food for the winter to every household, so it usually starts two or three days before the migration of the tribal people.Jiang Xia calculated that when Ares and the others came back in four days, the tribe would immediately start transporting food there. If so, there would only be three days left for the tribe to migrate.This is still under the optimistic premise that winter will come on time.

Moreover, in addition to relying on the previous horse camels to transport food, most of them depend on the males of the tribe.The orcs who came from the Andong Tribe to teach Zailin domestication techniques have already left, so Jiang Xia discovered sweet potatoes and invented fishing nets. Only the Zailin tribe knows about it. This is what the patriarch and wise men are happy to see. Let's go, they also have to keep it secret. In the coming year, they can get a lot of good things in Anton's bazaar. Jiang Xia once again affirmed that the ancient orcs were just honest and honest, not stupid.

I have learned the domestication technique, but also because of lack of time, I can only put it down temporarily.The previous proposal to raise jumping rabbits in captivity is also in progress. A second baby rabbit is about to be born. Although there are some deaths, many rabbits have been raised. Jiang Xia's plan to feed rabbits with hay is very successful. The jumping rabbits are fed by a few dedicated females. Jiang Xia never thought that the first attempt would yield a lot of results. At least let the females and young children eat some fresh food in winter, which is more beneficial to their health.These are all Qiqi told Jiang Xia to know when she came to play when she was free.

Now Qiqi is at Jiang Xia's house together with Ai Wenmu's father, and Jiang Xia is learning to weave bamboo baskets with bamboo stalks. Although the large prey is not strong enough to hold dried vegetables and sundries, it is very convenient.This is also Jiang Xia's first time to do it, and she used to do it with her mouth.It was only when he really started to use his hands that Jiang Xia realized how strong Big Tiger's comprehension and hands-on ability were.When the three of them showed their results together, Jiang Xia instantly felt that she would only be responsible for making plans in the future. Sure enough, such things as hands-on are suitable for local people to do. Even Qiqi, who is not working hard, is more beautiful and strong than what she made up .

Jiang Xia was depressed, and the result of depression was that the orcs who delivered the prey in the morning of the third day were stopped by Jiang Xia, and ordered not to send the prey in the afternoon. She needed a big log, a tree that was old enough and thick enough to be a person tall. .

Soon, two pieces of wood as thick as two armfuls were brought over, along with the wise man Jesus. Jiang Xia was already unable to complain. If it was in modern times, Jiang Xia had every reason to believe that the wise man installed a wiretap in her house. The device can appear immediately when there is a change.When Ares comes back, they will talk about human rights and privacy issues.

Since the wise man is here, Jiang Xia will no longer play tricks. "I want to make a cart, with two wheels on the bottom, a large flat plate on the top, and a driver in front. This kind of cart should be able to help carry a lot of things, which is more than a simple horse and camel. It should be convenient to use, but this is just something I imagined, and whether it works well depends on the effect."

When Yesa heard that Jiang Xia thought of something new, there was no one who disagreed, especially if it could solve the urgent needs of the tribe, of course he agreed with both hands.Jiang Xia drew the structure picture conceived in her head the night before on the ground. She didn't know what to do with the bearing connecting the flat plate and the wheel, so she simply cut the log along the vertical section into a flat and long plank. , one side of the board is flat, and the other side is vertically left in the middle of two protruding, hollowed-out ring-like false shafts, so that the crossbar connecting the two wheels is conveniently placed in the ring.Even the drivers are left directly on the wood, with exaggerated shapes, rough style, and Jiang Xia's black lines, but the wise men are quite satisfied. Well, he is already tall and big, so such a weight is really not huge in their eyes .

The most important thing is that the logs connected to the wheels must be very round. What surprised Jiang Xia was that the wise man did it himself. Jiang Xia never knew that Yesa was so good at carpentry. The wood is straight and smooth, very easy to use, Jiang Xia glanced at him in amazement, this scheming guy turned red rarely, "I like these jobs myself, and I usually carve small things when I'm free at home."
