The old uncles looked at Yaohu excitedly, "Chief, we can't do heavy work anymore, we can still help herd cattle, feed livestock, dry food, weave straw sandals, build nets, and weave baskets." ”

Yaohu smiled and nodded, "That's right!" As long as everyone has one heart, our Yaoshan tribe will get better and better, and our future days will get better and better. ”

Everyone responded in unison, "Yes, Chief." "The old uncles feel that they are full of energy, and they can work for a long time.

In fact, they are not very old, they are only in their forties, and when they were young, they were left with disabilities on their bodies, and after they could not hunt, they worked all year round, and they were often hungry, and the pain could only be carried hard, and their bodies were empty.

Several old Eminem heard the news from their own sons. Yun Amu said happily: "We don't worry about it for a long time, we know that Xiaoqing and the leader will not leave us alone." ”

The next day, the sky was overcast, and Yaohu took people to hunt early in the morning. When Yao Xiaoqing came back from exercise, he took people to start pulling radishes.

Shan Amu looked at the radish he pulled out and smiled in surprise: "Look at it, this radish is as thick as a girl's arm, and it is much bigger than the one we found outside." ”

Yun Amu looked at the radish in his hand with a happy expression, "That's it, you didn't see us, how much effort did you spend on watering it and weeding." ”

Hua pointed to the radish tassels, "Xiaoqing, can you eat the leaves on this?" So much, won't it be bad if you can't finish eating! ”

Yao Xiaoqing shook his head and said, "That's radish tassels, which can also be eaten." The radishes that were plucked up, the tassels and fibrous roots of the radishes, the wounded ones were removed, and all of them were stored in the cave. The radish tassels are cleaned and hung on bamboo poles to dry, stacked into a large vat, poured with salted water, and marinated for a period of time before eating. ”

Yun Emu smiled: "It's like pickled cabbage, right?" ”

Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "Yes!" Marinate it and put it there to eat slowly. "There is chili oil, Sichuan pepper, sesame seeds, soy sauce and vinegar in it, mix it cold, and the porridge will taste good. Thinking of the delicious food, the saliva in Yao Xiaoqing's mouth began to flood.

It took a group of people half a day to pluck the turnips, clean them one by one, pick out the ones with scars and blemishes, and pick the rest into the cave and stack them, sprinkle a layer of sand on them to moisturize.

Yao Xiaoqing took people to dig up the ginger planted under the courtyard wall. A lot of those dozen ginger plants have already come out. Yao Xiaoqing made some fine sand and piled it in the cave and buried the ginger in it. The pumpkin and kudzu powder stored in the cave have been steamed and boiled in a mush, and a third of them have been eaten.

She also collected half a basket of pumpkin seeds, and she planned to plant pumpkins all around the tribe when spring begins.

I think that after the cold weather, leeks and wild garlic will be frozen by frost and snow. Yao Xiaoqing led people to plant wild garlic and leeks in the field into bamboo baskets and put them in the canteen.

Coming out of the cafeteria, Eminem looked at the sky, "It's going to rain, hurry up and finish the boots, and give them to everyone to go out for a walk on a snowy day." ”

Hua pursed her lips and smiled: "Mother, Xiaoqing's method is really good, use wood as the base, and put a layer of cowhide inside, so you are not afraid of snow and water soaking into your shoes." ”

Shan Eminem sighed, "Yes! No one will starve to death this winter. ”

"Hmmm! No one will starve to death. Hua nodded.

When the hunters returned, Yun Amu and the others had already prepared a sumptuous meal, such as lamb stewed radish, sauerkraut stewed pork belly, taro stalk soaked, stir-fried sauerkraut sticks, and kudzu root powder pumpkin pie.

The sauerkraut stewed pork belly is fat but not greasy, the mutton is added with ginger, grass and bay leaves, there is less fishy smell, and the radish is sweet and juicy, and everyone is full of praise.

After eating the food, everyone looked at Yaohu and waited for him to divide the room.

Yaohu smiled and said to everyone: "Now divide the house for everyone, everyone live in it, and take advantage of the winter to find your favorite baby, do you know?" If you have your own favorite, you can also become a family like a big tree and winter snow, and the child also has a father and a mother! ”

Yao Xiaoqing glanced at Yao Hu in surprise, and then gave him a thumbs up, "Father, you are right, the children will also have a father and a mother in the future." ”

Mu Ba stood up and said to Yaohu, "Chief, I want to be paired with Mu Na and become a family. ”

Yaohu smiled and nodded, "Mu Na will do it if he wants." ”

Mu Na stood up with a red face, "Chief, I do!" "Mu Na is a woman who came back from the Qiushan Daji, she was thin and small when she came, and she looked quite beautiful when she grew up.

Yaohu nodded and smiled: "Okay, you two will become a family, Muba should be good to the woman he likes." ”

Yao Xiaoqing knew from the memory of the original owner that Yao Hu was also a good man who loved his daughter-in-law.

She turned her head to look at Mu Feng and felt that he was also a warm man.

"Brother, do you have a woman you like?"

Mu Feng shook his head, "I don't like any of them." ”

"Take your time, you'll always find one you like!" Yao Xiaoqing jue doesn't like anyone else, it's only a teenager, it's not good for your health to be paired too early, and it's not too late to wait for twenty years old.

Mu Feng smiled and rubbed her ball head, "Our Xiaoqing is also fast." ”

Yao Xiaoqing looked at him, "......"

At this time, the bull stood up and said that he had taken a fancy to Asu, and Asu also nodded shyly, and the two became a pair.

Then a dozen or so couples stood up and said they would like to be paired, and the rest of them were silent.

Yaohu smiled and said to the men and women who had not yet been matched: "If there is still no one who looks at the right eye, I will start to allocate the house without me." ”

"It's gone." Mu Feng shouted loudly.

Yaohu glared at Mu Feng and began to distribute, "I still live in the original courtyard, Dashi and Yu live in one yard, Dashu and Leopard mother and son live in one yard, and Muba and Bull live in one ......yard."

"The old uncle has a room for the two of them, and they also have a care, and the others live in a room. Go ahead! Living next to the yard, do you know everything? ”

Everyone responded in unison: "Yes, Chief! ”

"Well, except for the vigilers, rest for the night tonight, and go to Amna to receive the hides. Pair hard, give birth to a doll early! Yaohu looked at the paired man and woman and said.

Everyone laughed, "Yes, Chief!" ”

"Oooh! We've got our own house! Yaya and Ah Sen's two children clapped happily.

The men were not blushing at all, and the women were blushing and were pulled out by the men.

Shan Amu smiled and gave them the animal skin mat and animal skin quilt, and told those bachelors with a smile, "Okay, love to be clean, these animal skin Xiaoqing boiled a lot of soap to wash it, don't make a foot smell!" ”

The wolf grinned and said, "Eminem, don't be afraid, we stink ourselves." ”

The bull and Asu took the animal skin and said with a smile: "Brother, I advise you to quickly find a woman you like to match, and it is warm to huddle together in winter." ”

Yu and the men who were not matched looked at the bull with disgust.
