The question of who to learn from in the first place was the use of birch bark to make tents and clothes, and even boats.

The men who knew how to make tents could only say that when their ancestors were hunting, they had encountered a group of mountain people, and they should have learned from them, and they didn't know anything else.

Mrs. Xu thought to herself:

In fact, you are called mountain people from the outside, but I didn't expect that there are people who are called more like mountain people by you.

Don't look at the villagers of Leijiawo, I can't tell clearly, but the first time I saw the magical big tent made of tree bark, it was being broadcast live at that time.

The family members in the live broadcast room followed Xu Tianxin's camera to touch and look together, and sighed that all the gifts from nature were treasures. This can not only be used as a tent and a buckle greenhouse, but also suggests that the assistant and the anchor grandmother make a camping rain curtain romantically, and then go out in the future to put a piece on the car, but there is curiosity to check.

After checking the information, it was found that it was originally learned from the Evenki.

And the Evenks translated in Chinese are really "people who live in the mountains and forests", an ancient and mysterious people.

It is said that he lived for a long time on the Baikal side of the Trans-Khingan Mountains.

Of course, it is very likely that that nation is still the enemy of our dynasty, because there are few families, and people are not convinced by your dynasty.

In fact, fighting for the world, isn't that what it is, today is good with this country, and tomorrow is not good with that country, there is no permanent enemy and friend.

Therefore, the family members in the live broadcast room checked the historical trend in the later period, don't look at the current nation that is not good for us, but it is rumored that they were beaten back by Great Russia in the later period, and they were not allowed to stay there, and after being convinced and unified by this side, this is a very tough heroic nation.

Not to mention the battles of Tibet and Burma, just to let the family members in the live broadcast room check the very embarrassing British and French coalition formation, the national gene is reflected, and 39% of the people of this nation go to the battlefield.

Think about it, if you remove the old and young women and children, is it equivalent to the whole man's family going up to fight with the Eight-Nation Alliance, which is also the reason why there are very few people in this nation later. Not to mention, it also made a great contribution to Huaxia later.

And why mention this paragraph.

Isn't it, Mrs. Xu sat in front of the fire and finished talking to the men, after picking the birch bark from tomorrow, she took the walnut kernels handed by Lao Lei's daughter-in-law that she didn't let her eat, and the people here took out the best to entertain their grandparents and grandchildren, very simple.

While saying to Reiri:

"Old Lei, you know how to make a tent out of tree bark, I haven't seen it outside and no one uses it like this, do you know what it represents?"

"What?"

"Your village can't keep this idea, you should hand it in."

Leiri didn't understand, so if he couldn't keep it, he wouldn't keep it.

It's best for us ordinary people to learn it, and maybe we can help many people save money on oilcloth.

happened to change the commander of the Zhenbei Army, this general is really good, let the people fish and eat in the ownerless river where no one has contracted.

When their village mentions this general now, they really feel that even his eight generations of ancestors are grateful, and they all hope that the general will stay here for a long time and not leave, this is the truth.

And if you want to make a birch bark tent, you really can't do without that kind of big fish with a lot of oil.

The elders in the village who would make it said earlier that it wouldn't be able to make it without this big fish oil, which is so strange.

This is also the reason why only two of them have that object in their Lei family's nest, and others don't.

In the past, officials here did not let them fish indiscriminately, and they could not afford to buy it.

Of course, even if they are allowed to catch fish in the river now, it is not as good as the Erdao River, where there are big rivers that can be boated, which are very vast, and there are big fish with a lot of fish oil.

But our village can't compare with Erdao River, so we can only look at luck in the river, and it depends on whether the family can be willing not to eat and use it to make tents.

Because it is necessary to remove the fattening fish meat in the whole fish, put it outside to dry, and use the fattest sun-dried fish to boil it with the birch bark to soften the birch bark.

If you want to color it into dirty black or miso color, green and red are all you want, and black then put some hay in it and cook it together.

In the end, the tent was sewn as big as it was, with shelves on the inside and shelves on the outside covered with this bark.

If you are afraid of heavy rain or heavy snow, you should make a little wood support strong outside.

In short, don't be told what you want to do. If you have the strength to waste fish and meat like the Xu family, then you can play with it casually, and the whole row of colorful ones will bring energy.

You see, Lao Lei didn't use the two families who could make tents to tell him at all, the above was all he told Mrs. Xu on Twitter, without reservations at all, and the two families were at best supplementary explanations.

Lao Lei also said that if you want to get warmer a little more, you can still cover the bark with thatch and quilts, in fact, this can be used as a house to live.

For example, the poor family can't afford to build a house and only buy two fish, let's be honest, then we should take this to deal with it, it's better than living in the cellar, at least this has yang energy.

It's just that Leiri has never met anyone poorer than their village, otherwise he would have said it a long time ago.

Unexpectedly, at the moment, the sister of the Xu family is very cautious about this matter, does it sound like a secret recipe?

Mrs. Xu said:

"You don't understand what I mean. I mean, in other state towns and military camps, I have never heard of the method of making military tents out of birch bark, only you know. Then they can only buy animal skins and oilcloths when they go out and station.

And if you give this idea to our Zhenbei Army, do you think you can save a lot of military money for our Zhenbei Army?

I see that your bark is quite soft after cooking, and it is rolled into a roll of military belts, which can be lighter than those animal skins, and can save money than buying oilcloth to protect from the rain. ”

That's when Reary understood.

Before he could speak, Xu Tianxin had been paying attention to listening here, but he didn't expect the villagers of Lei Jiawo to be happy and said: "It's not what's wrong, Li Zheng, then you go and tell our army." Don't let them buy oilcloth in advance, it won't be a waste of money. ”

Reary was in a quandary: "I ...... But I didn't dare go. ”

provoked everyone to laugh, Lao Lei didn't care, and folded his hands and asked Mrs. Xu: "Then you have to trouble the sister, you tell me, you are better than me to talk to Lord Zhenting." I really can't do this kind of thing. ”

Mrs. Xu didn't expect to hide from the brilliant things, let's say first, you are not as good as Lao Zhu, Lei Lizheng's old wife nodded again and again.

Lao Lei was unconvinced: "That's because he and his sister-in-law have seen a lot of people who are officials, and they have practiced it." He's seen a female general, but I've never seen it. I saw Zhao Zhenting counting. ”

That's right.

Then Mrs. Xu responded, looked at the villagers in front of her and said: "Don't worry, everyone, I will not take credit for it, I will definitely mention a few more words about the name of our Lei Jiawo village." Although I don't dare to say what reward will be given to us immediately, you remember, a good official must have a number in his heart. ”

Like the quota for conscription in the future, four will be exempted from two for the Lei family, Mrs. Xu thinks there should be no problem with this, right?

Even if the officials above can't manage it so carefully, then she will definitely ask Zhao Dashan for this favor, and she can't let the villagers of Leijiawo suffer.

In addition, Mrs. Xu specifically pointed out that the original two households would make tents, which was not hidden at all, otherwise it would not be known to the whole village.

Mrs. Xu, Lei Li and Lao Lei's sister-in-law whispered:

"Take care of more in the future, I see that the two old people are gone, there is no one to do, the little one is too young, the middle man and his daughter-in-law are busy working, and the burden is very heavy. Help pull a little. After they have finished sewing tents for my family, if there is any light work in the village in the future, consider them. This also calls the two of them a special contribution to the village. ”

Both of them nodded, full of answers.

In fact, living in the village, the village chief's daughter-in-law is the key person. Especially under the premise that the village chief is afraid of his daughter-in-law, and the daughter-in-law is more serious than the village chief.

Isn't it, Sister-in-law Lei took advantage of this topic to get close to Mrs. Xu and told her heart:

"Sister, in fact, since I heard that you went to the border to visit the army, our village is also thinking about what we can give.

The new general asked us to go down the river and up the mountain, and everyone had a much better life.

To put it mildly, let everyone finally live a life of being people, guarding the mountains to have firewood to burn, and no longer have to shiver from the cold. ”

When Sister-in-law Lei said this, she pointed to the hunched old woman in the distance:

"You don't know, not long ago, the government officials came to the village to measure the land and distribute it to the people in our village who did not come back from military service. It made the people in the village even more anxious.

So sister, don't think about the poverty of our village, if there is such a thing in the future, you can scream. For example, this year, we have been saving since the beginning of spring, guarding the mountains and making some efforts, if there is more, can't we take less?

Again, in fact, our village has already run out of ice, and this thing is not less than it costs money, and we plan to push the ice outside the gate of the camp in the summer and put it down.

Do you think this trick will work? Can't you arrest your brother and say he went to the camp randomly, right? After all, everyone is kind-hearted, saving the soldiers from being thirsty in the summer. ”

Sister-in-law Lei wanted to get an accurate sentence from Mrs. Xu, otherwise she was vague in her heart.

"What, ice?"

"Ah, girl, do you want to go and see, just around the corner of the mountain in our village, there is a former tomb, we don't understand, but there is no coffin, I have seen it, it was stolen? There were just a few corroded broken boards left for us to throw out.

Anyway, it's cold when you go in the underground cave, wow.

They cleaned up the place, laid straw and reed mats, stored a lot of ice, and covered them with leaves and rice chaff. I'm afraid that it won't be enough, and some people in the village have also left six cellars to store ice, but it's not as good as there. ”

"Why do you save so much, you have to send them all to the camp?"

Mrs. Xu didn't expect Lei Jiawo to be so diligent, which was much stronger than their village. It's not bad for the folks of Erdaohe. The main thing is that there is a grandson in the village who can do magic, and he can make ice from saltpeter. The whole village is still the most greedy for magic, and will think about eating popsicles in summer, and the eldest grandson doesn't mention it, and everyone is so busy that they forget to store ice.

Sister-in-law Lei said: "Not all of them." This is not to think about breaking ground in two days and then digging cellars, and if you can vacate a few more cellars in advance, they will be vacated. Just keep it for your village to store autumn fruits and sell them. After all, who can guess whether this year's late autumn will be as cold as last year's, and we are afraid that what if we can't save the frozen fruits and rot. If there is ice, there will be more fruit this autumn than last year, even if it melts some of it. ”

"If there is a lot of fruit, it can be sold in the county town this winter."

"But no, are you going to see the ice?"

Mrs. Xu couldn't help laughing, this big night, she went into the mountain to see what the ice was doing in an ancient tomb. Sometimes our folks come up with that shaft energy, and it's strange and rare.

When Leiri heard this, he also criticized his old wife, saying, "At night, what kind of mountain do you enter, and what stinks to show." Besides, Da Lang and they have already stewed forest frogs and loaches. ”

Mrs. Xu knew that she was cooking again, so she hurriedly stopped and said, "I finished eating the next meal in the afternoon, why are you stewing frogs again." Since we came, the frogs here have not been good, and they catch people every day. ”

In this season, people still have to find a partner, and the ones who emerge are all male frogs. It has to recruit a habitat first, find a good place, and then call to the female frog in the photo, so that it can be paired at the designated place. It's the male in the animal kingdom, and they all know that if you want to find a daughter-in-law, you have to get a house to settle down in, otherwise no one will be with you.

As a result, the little frog was intercepted in the stew pot halfway through, why do we humans have to wait for others to finish the house.

Reary was laughing: "Hurry up, girl, get up quickly, it's already finished stewing." You and Tian Xin'er move the chopsticks first, or you can't eat it. You don't know, tomorrow you will leave, early in the morning the villagers will come to me to discuss, tonight everyone also wants to learn from your village to eat together, listen to your village to kill pigs for the New Year can be envied. As soon as I thought, don't just learn from your village to work and earn work, and then don't enjoy it, then what can be done. ”

In fact, the villagers of Lei Jiawo all know that the Xu family is in good condition, and they are afraid that the ancestors and grandchildren of the Xu family will eat three meals a day at home and be hungry here.

I still have to get up early tomorrow and leave, so I can't stew meat early in the morning for fear that it will be too late.

And the village borrowed a lot of light from the ancestors and grandchildren of the Xu family last year, and taught them to make paper this year, and they will also catch the fish to help sew birch bark tents, and wait for the autumn to harvest the mountain goods and fruits will only be better, how can you not remember this kindness.

Therefore, the men went down to the river early in the morning to try to catch loaches and forest frogs, and in the eyes of the villagers, it was also the luck of the Xu family, so they would think about what they wanted.

Otherwise, the water is flowing on the ice this season, the snow on the mountain has not yet melted through, and it is difficult to pull the net, so it stands to reason that it is rare to catch so many frogs.

Unexpectedly, they stood barefoot in the ice water, and everyone shouted the trumpet and pulled the net, oh my God, the old nose (a lot of meaning). Then Uncle Li Zheng said that he couldn't put back the frogs that he had worked so hard to catch, and this time the villagers would gather vegetables and eat them together. However, don't eat full, just eat two bites per person, otherwise the empty plate will not look good in the blink of an eye.

When Mrs. Xu and Xu Tianxin came, there were only stewed loaches and forest frogs on the long table, as well as fried wild eggs, stewed silly roe deer meat, fried soybean grains, and more than ten kinds of pickles from each family. If you don't have salt, you can't afford to buy it, and if the mountain people here are willing to take out pickles to entertain them, then the guests are very important to them.

As well as washed fresh sprigs of garlic, diced mother-in-law, served with squeezed chili sauce.

"Oh, can you dig up your mother-in-law now?"

The little girls in the village hurriedly replied to Mrs. Xu: "Grandma Xu, it was we who dug it, and we were able to dig it, and we have come to the fore." "I endured it before swallowing the words that came to my mouth: Can you have two more days, if it is rare, we will dig some wild vegetables for you and bring home.

For the girls, there is really nowhere to go, like Miss Xu will always tell them some things about the girl's family casually. For example, they are asked to pick up some soap nuts to leave the pulp, and then boil them with wild flowers or wild fruit peels in water, and after boiling, use a drawer cloth to filter out the viscous juice, which can be used to wash their faces and bodies to fragrance the fragrance.

Mrs. Xu specially beckoned Tian Xin to go to the city, start the live broadcast first, and add a show tonight, so that the family can see that this trip is over.

Then follow them to taste the long table together, feel the warmth of the bonfire, and look at these capable mountain people under the light of the torches.

As a result, the family felt Xu Tianxin's eating from the first perspective, and the question asked by many people was: "Do you sell frogs, then don't sell frogs now, small garlic and mother-in-law can always be sold, right?" Can you get it home free of charge, we are in the field, and we haven't eaten this for many years. ”
