Chapter 047: Pineapple, Strawberry
The grass used by the tribe to make grass skirts is a very soft and tough grass found by Mu Tong. Clothes woven with this grass are not only soft but also durable, and even if they are dry, they only turn from green to tawny, and the softness does not change, and they are comfortable and cool to wear.
The man's messy long hair was cut and cut into a flat head or broken hair similar to that of the two Ayu brothers; The women's long and disheveled hair was also tied up. Some tied a ponytail, some braided two twisted braids, and some directly used wooden hairpins and stone hairpins to coil a simple bun at the back of their heads.
The women's hairstyles are all passed down from Mu Tong. Some of the items used to tie the hair were made of straw rope, some were made of elastic tendons of animals, and some were hairpins made of wood or stone.
The people of the tribe are no longer naked. Showing people, Mu Tong is naturally very happy. She no longer has to face all kinds of men, women, and children naked every day as soon as she leaves the house. body, don't worry about the eye of the needle, don't worry about aesthetic fatigue.
Mu Tong was lying on a newly made large stone bed, covered with a thin quilt, and a flat large stone bed was covered with a mat made of cowhide.
This is an authentic buffalo leather mat, and it is a leather that Mu Tong used some refining techniques to tannize, which is very environmentally friendly and healthy.
The reason why I took out the cowhide mat is because there are also leathers that are very similar to cowhide. In the thatched hut of Ayu's family, there are several. Mu Tong put away the skins and took out two cowhide mats, saying that they were made of those skins.
As for the air mattress and other bed items, they had already been put into the ring by Mu Tong. Of course, where these things went, the two brothers would not ask.
For the cowhide mat, Ah Yu looked at it suspiciously for a long time, although he was sure that this cowhide was very similar to the water beast skin he had hit before, but he was sure that this was definitely not the skin of the water beast. However, although he doubted, he did not say anything. In short, Ah Tong took it out, even if he had doubts, he wouldn't tell outsiders.
Besides, the water beast is very difficult to hunt. It was also by chance that he had to work hard to get these water beast skins. The clansmen are very fond of these skins, and the one who wants them the most is the chief's daughter Baima.
Thinking of Baima, Ayu's brows furrowed: Baima and Abu took a team of clansmen to the Heishui tribe to exchange salt, and it was time to come back depending on the day. According to Bai Ma's temperament, I am afraid that I will come back to entangle myself again, if because of Bai Ma's entanglement, Ah Tong will be disgusted with himself......
Ah Yu clenched his fist: No one can be an obstacle between himself and Ah Tong! If that Baima dares to ruin her relationship with Ah Tong, she will never mind and punish her!
Compared with Ayu's carefulness, Dorjee did not doubt it, and happily took the cowhide mat given by Mu Tong and spread it on his reed mat. The cover on his body is also the summer cool quilt given by Mu Tong. This cowhide mattress is really comfortable to sleep on! There is also a soft and breathable cool quilt, which is also very comfortable to cover the body!
Dorjee brought a large basin of water from the water tank and washed himself outside the hospital: Sister-in-law said that she would have a good dream every night when she washed and went to bed.
Ah Yu also washed himself, closed the courtyard door, closed the door, put down the straw curtain in the bedroom, and Ah Yu, who was lying on the bed, closed his eyes and opened them, and became Shen Kai again.
"Wife!" Shen Kai climbed onto Mu Tong's soft body and kissed the lips that he had missed for a long time......
Early in the morning, Ayu had breakfast, took a stone spear and a knife, and went hunting with a basket on his back. Mu Tong and Dorjee, after cleaning up the house, locked the door, and went up the mountain to collect.
The lock on the door is a stone lock made of granite by Mu Tong according to the ancient lock, and the style of the practice is based on the model of 'horizontal lock', but the hard granite is used instead of the ancient iron and bronze.
Don't look at the stone lock is not big, but it is not so easy for the people of the tribe to twist it with their bare hands, or chisel it with a stone spear. However, there is generally no one in the tribe who will open someone else's house casually. Even in the past, when every house hung a straw curtain, it was rare to steal.
Except for a handful of bad guys. And such people, once discovered, will be punished. Those who commit crimes again after punishment will be expelled from the tribe. Of course, there are also people who break into other people's homes without consent, such as the chief's daughter Baima, who often breaks into other people's homes uninvited, just to obsesse with the man she fancies.
Mu Tong and the others locked the door and followed the pace of the collection team to the mountain where they were collecting.
Today's collection site is a little farther away than in the past. There's no way, the previous woods, all that can be harvested are almost done, and the rest are not yet ripe.
The Chishui tribe relies on the forest for food, and is very grateful for the gifts of nature, and they will not pick it indiscriminately when they collect it, and usually protect the plants and seedlings so that they can have a good harvest in the coming year.
The forest was also very dense, and not long after everyone entered, at the edge of the woods, in a bush, a pineapple the size of a basketball was found.
Mu Tong used Xiaoqiang to identify that it was indeed a pineapple. The taste and shape are the same, and it is a big one. And this fruit is also a fruit that the Chishui tribe can recognize and eat. This kind of pineapple, similar to Taiwan's pineapple, has no thorns, can be eaten after peeling, and does not need to be soaked in salt water.
There is also a blue strawberry that is the same as the strawberry on earth except that it is blue. The blue strawberries are also big, all the size of an adult's fist, and when you bite into it, the blue juice flows, and the sweet and sour taste is very appetizing.
These two kinds of fruits, the people in the Chishui tribe are called wild fruits. Now that Mu Tong is here, he directly named these two fruits with pineapple and strawberry.
This bush is very large, and there are many of these two fruits. The men, women and children of the collection team opened the team and collected separately.
Mu Tong was also very interested in these two good-tasting fruits, and picked a lot of them with Dorjee. Of course, most of these 'many' go into storage rings. The two of them only half of the basket was filled. The remaining half should be kept for other wild vegetables.
Looking at the full harvest, Mu Tong limited himself to a short contemplation: I heard that there are abundant species in spring, summer and autumn here, and there is no shortage of food. However, the winter is very cold, and if you don't have enough food in the fall, it will be difficult to survive the winter.
With plenty of storage and equipment, it's no problem to cope with three people in the winter. But what about the rest of the Chishui tribe? In this area of the Twilight Forest, there are four months in spring, summer and autumn, and eight months in winter. That is, there are twenty months of the year here. All the food needed for the long winter must be stored in the autumn.
