In the evening, Ding Qi continued to make whiteboards there, and he found that he still needed to make some whiteboards with different content so that he could play on the spot when teaching the content. After use, you can apply another layer of lime on top, dry and continue to use.

In order to speed up, Ding Qi called the bucks in the same room and Ben to help together, so that the speed could also be faster. However, due to the fact that it is winter, the lime slurry is not easy to stir in cold weather, so the production speed of the whiteboard is relatively slow.

While the three of them were talking and laughing, chatting about interesting things happening in the tribe, a cry similar to an owl reached the three ears. Ding Qi and the Bucks didn't react, but Ben in the field was obviously a little uncomfortable, turning his head to look out from time to time, looking a little anxious.

After a while, two more of the same voice came in, and Ben, who was sitting there, was a little anxious, which made Ding Qi a little inexplicable, it is normal for owls to call twice in winter, people are looking for mice to eat, but how do you think Ben is more anxious than owls, and other owls are not looking for you. Seeing that Ben was getting more and more anxious, he asked:

"Ben, what's wrong with you, is anyone looking for you outside? Or do you want to rush to the toilet? ”

Ben was a little embarrassed to get up, and his answer was a little hesitant:

"No, it's nothing, let's continue to work!"

However, the buck next to him saw some clues, and said to Ben with a smile:

"Don't you dare tell the leader about anything?"

Then he turned to Ding Qi and said:

"Boss, it's not a big deal, it's just that Ben's woman misses him!"

As soon as the buck said this, Ben was even more embarrassed, and his head was buried between his legs.

This time, it was Ding Qi's turn to be a little confused and didn't understand what was going on. Ben is a seeder, and in several tribes he has enjoyed the blessings of Qi people. Ding Qi is open to this kind of dewy marriage, but he can't accept it.

But dew marriage and women are two different things, and the women of the primitive tribe are equivalent to the existence of wives, that is, they are quite married. If Ben has a woman, that is, he is married, then there should be a ceremony, how can there be a ceremony to do it without informing him of the leader? Ben is too unruly, right!?

Immediately, Ding Qi frowned and asked unhappily:

"Woman? When did Ben have a woman? How did I not know? ”

The buck gave Ding Qi a blank look, and said in his heart that you are stupid, of course you don't know, and you can't even see that the deer is interesting to you, let alone other people. But he didn't patiently explain:

"Ben has a woman, and you came back with them, don't you see that there is any interest between them?"

As soon as the buck explained, Ding Qi understood that Ben and Feng were on good terms with the seven women who had just joined the tribe. Ding Qi was busy with tribal affairs all day long, and on the way back, he also focused on how to make the team return more smoothly and safely, and he had to consider food, clothing, housing and transportation, but he didn't pay attention to this aspect of things.

And Ding Qi also learned that men and women do not need to hold any ceremonies and do not need to notify the tribal leaders and witches, as long as the two like it, they can be together, and if they don't like it, they can be separated, there are no rules and restrictions. Unlike in the future, if you need a bride price or something like a dowry, you can't tell whether to marry a daughter-in-law or a girl.

Of course, this situation like Ben is relatively rare, such as the deer tribe before the buck, he and his woman are in this form, a chance stag rescued each other, and then the two fell in love, and finally gave birth to a deer.

At present, there is still a microcosm of the matriarchal society, although the chief and the chief of the witch are the majority, but sometimes it depends on the weight of the grandmother in the tribe who is the highest level of the tribe. These tribes generally fulfill their mission of human reproduction in a form similar to walking marriages, and they have recognized the dangers of inbreeding. However, such as the deer tribe before and the several tribes that Ding Qi is in contact with now, although there is no matrilineal dominance, they still adopt the form of walking marriage, and monogamy or polygamy are rare.

After listening to the buck's explanation, Ding Qi hurriedly asked the woman who ran to find him. He knew that the woman was windy, and Ding Qi also felt that she performed better, and she was selected into the hunting team with tenacity, but he didn't expect to have a leg with Ben, and it seemed that he was also a little scheming, knowing that Ben's status in the tribe was not low. Feng looks ordinary, tall, and about the same as an ordinary man, but his skills are not inferior to men, and he can subdue her at present, so he must be very happy to run this seeder.

But on this cold day, where can they be happy? They don't choose between Chase and don't have a separate place. Do you want to roll the sheets in the snow? That's a bit difficult! Ding Qi couldn't help but maliciously think that the low temperature at night would make Ben Na things unable.

Hey!

After running out, Ding Qi stopped what he was doing and thought seriously about one thing, about marriage. Although he hadn't come to this point before, and he didn't even talk about marriage, he knew that marriage was a big deal, especially for a tribe, if he wanted the descendants of the tribe to grow up healthily and the tribe could develop and grow, he had to implement monogamy, and he had to solve the marriage problem of men in the tribe from the outside.

At present, the tribe is relatively special, except for Mei and Buck, who are slightly older, and Shi and Yu are younger, everyone else is young and middle-aged, and they are all able to marry. But the tribe currently has more monks and less porridge, there are 52 men, and only 20 women, minus the few special circumstances just mentioned, 49 men, 19 women, and 20 people are still missing.

Ding Qi, who is not in love, is worried about other people's marriages, and it feels a little weird, which is the real idea of the buck next to him. The leader has just come back from outside, so he can't be infected with some strange disease, so my daughter can't look for him, and I have to remind the deer.

Tinch communicated his idea to the Bucks, but got the old leader's support.

After breakfast the next day, Tinche summoned several of the tribal principals to a meeting in his cabin to inform them of his intention to introduce monogamy in the tribe, and to avoid the problem of consanguineous marriages, to introduce a family name system in the tribe at the same time. People in a tribe have one surname, people with the same surname cannot marry, people with different surnames can marry, but the offspring born are mainly patrilineal.

For example, the people of the original deer tribe changed their surname to Lu, the stag can be called Lu Xiong, Ben is called Lu Ben, and the flower is called Lu Hua. The group of people in the Qing tribe was changed to Qin, and the people of the three tribes of Gray Stone were all stones, and the people exchanged by the Li tribe were surnamed Li. Others who join the tribe are given their surnames based on the actual situation.

The various principals went back to their own groups to preach about it, but there was a principle, which was completely voluntary and could not be forced. Nowadays there are few women, so you must get the consent of the woman to get married, and of course, if a woman pursues a man, she must also have the consent of the man.

At the same time, it is told that after the snow melts, the tribe will hold a ceremony for the married couples, and only after this ceremony can their relationship be confirmed. Also, the tribe of married couples would build them a separate house for their family to live in. Although they don't know the specific meaning of family and husband and wife, they know that they can have a woman, and this item is enough. Especially for those who are slaves or have been slaves, this is something they cannot hope for.

After saying this, Ben was the happiest, and immediately jumped on the spot. But the deer looked at Ding Qi with both hope and a little melancholy, but Ding Qi didn't have the slightest feedback on her gaze, I'm afraid that only Ding Qi himself didn't feel it.

After the issue of tribal marriage was resolved, Tinch began to get back on track and was busy with the tribal study program. Due to the change of the tribe's surname, everyone can be regarded as having the content of learning the language. As for the numbers, of course, they start with Arabic numerals in the first grade of elementary school.

After a period of gestation, Tinche began his first teaching activity in primitive times. He has 71 students and all of them are participating. After breakfast, the location was in front of the three large houses. It was cold, but everyone's enthusiasm was high.

In the first class, Ding Qi first talked about the word "human", what is a person? Everyone here is a human being, and the herringbone is like a person walking on the side. Man is a life that can make and use tools for labor, as well as think and communicate with language, which is different from other animals.

At the same time, he talked about what life is, what is an animal, what is a tool, labor, and speech. These are the questions that everyone asked, and these questions actually opened a window for everyone to explore life and nature.

Among them, the four people who are the doctor Wulu, the two girls Xue and Dan and Shi Heyu are the most interested in learning and have the deepest desire for knowledge, most of the questions are raised by them, and they are also the people who choose the most to master the pronunciation of the word "human".

At the same time, the meaning of human existence and the problem of human reproduction are talked about through the words of human beings, and reproduction requires men and women, so husbands and wives are derived.

Next, Ding Qi focused on the meaning of the word husband and wife, which is also his foreshadowing for the implementation of monogamy in the tribe. Someone even confessed in public to the woman he liked, or engaged in a fair duel, but unfortunately no one succeeded. But the herd did not give up, like rams in heat, launched wave after wave of attacks against the women.

The first lesson is very important, not much, only three words, people and husband and wife, but the content and amount of information are huge, so that people who come into contact with the world for the first time start to think, start to learn, and start to know themselves and the world.

Ding Qi is like an old professor, using the tribal language to explain and understand Chinese characters, which arouses the hobby and interest of the tribal people. Everyone has a small bamboo branch in their hands, they write these three words on the snow, know these three words, and after a class, they can also see who writes well and who learns poorly.

The next step is the learning of numbers, from 0 to 9, everyone stretches out their palms and counts the numbers 0 to 9 according to the number of fingers. Everyone was very serious about learning, including deer, snow, dan, stones, and fish, although they had not been exposed to it before, but they learned quickly and understood it more clearly.

Near noon, Ding Qi made a mandatory classification of the surnames of the existing people of the tribe in the name of Aragami, and pointed out the relationship between the surnames and why there are surnames, and clearly told everyone that they could not be married with the same surname. To give some examples, the content of the class instantly became vivid.

At the end of the course, Ding Qi set a learning goal, that is, who can get the first place in learning words and numbers, can be determined by him/herself, but the premise is that this person agrees, and this goal does not include Ding Qi and Lu. The explanation given by Ding Qi is that the leader of the tribe and the witch doctor have special status, and cannot be a reward for the learning goal for the time being.

This made the deer's eyes suddenly brighten, and then darkened again, and then brightened again.
