A leisurely life in ancient times

Chapter 143 The Patriarch's Woman

At dusk, the night wind blowing across the face reveals a sense of bleakness and loneliness, and a few dead leaves fall from the treetops from time to time.

Accompanied by the sound of insects and birds in the forest, it all shows the gradual progress of the dry season.

At this moment, laughter echoed in the sky above the Flying Eagle Tribe. Jiang Qing was in admiration, and swept the rattan baskets and rattan baskets woven by the people nearby one by one, her level slowly rising.

There are two or three of them, which are more detailed and tight than hers.

Look at it, you know it's a handy one.

Seeing this, Jiang Qing called the three of them out alone, and one of them, a woman named Dan Li, seemed to have a high status in the tribe.

"Danli, you watch everyone weaving, I will hurry up and put the saplings into the rattan basket." Jiang Qing told Danli once, then got up and took a chest-high rattan basket, and walked towards the piled up saplings beside her.

Dan Li smiled and said, "Okay, Jiang Qing, don't worry, we will never be lazy."

"It's getting late, we need to hurry up." Jiang Qing nodded, first put some leaves under the rattan basket, and then carefully filled the rattan basket with saplings.

Yingjie lit the bonfire, and quickly brought over the sugar maple saplings that he had collected earlier, seeing that there were quite a few of them.In addition to the Tangqi saplings, Jiang Qing collected some other saplings from time to time. Jiang Qing took a look and couldn't recognize them all, but she didn't ask.

These will naturally have to be planted, and it is not too late to ask.

Jiang Qing neatly and carefully packed the saplings with wrapped roots into rattan baskets.Yingjie and the others carefully wrapped the roots of the sugar maple saplings with soil and wrapped them with leaves. Jiang Qing was worried that they would break the roots of the saplings, so she gave a few instructions.

Yingjie and the others didn't dare to be careless, they carefully wrapped the leaves with fresh wet soil, and gently combed the roots of the saplings, for fear of breaking even the slightest bit.

Seeing a few rough guys doing meticulous work, there is no slight reluctance, and they are completely serious.Looking through the bonfire, Jiang Qing looked at the busy people with anticipation for the future, and her complexion warmed up.

"Jiang Qing, can you see these?" Lang Mo came over carrying four or five bowl-sized wooden sticks, and the people behind him all carried quite a few.At a glance, there are probably dozens of roots, all of which are neatly cut.

Jiang Qing put down the saplings, took one, and moved the two rattan baskets containing the saplings.After making a few gestures, he said, "Langmo, you cut a hole at each end."

In order to prevent slipping, cut the hole just enough to catch the rope made of green rattan.

With two strokes of the wolf ink, two holes were made where Jiang Qing gestured, and under Jiang Qing's instruction, the wooden stick was thinned into two parts.

"This is a shoulder pole. Walking at night is not conducive to flying. It is convenient to carry a rattan basket. The rattan basket can be carried on both shoulders, and the rattan basket can be carried on the shoulder." Jiang Qing said, and made a demonstration.

Yingjie, Danli and the others watched Jiang Qing easily pick up the rattan basket containing the saplings, their eyes sparkling with joy.I can't wait to go forward and have a try. Although others have heard Jiang Qing explain the usefulness of rattan baskets and rattan baskets just now, they are not as good as what they saw with their own eyes.

Seeing this, he was immediately ecstatic.

More motivation!
"Can I have a try?" Ying Jie rubbed his hands, his eyes staring at the shoulder pole in Jiang Qing's hand.

Jiang Qing grinned, put down the pole and walked aside, said: "Yes, this sapling is not heavy, and a woman can carry it when walking at night."

Yingjie nodded again and again, stepped forward to take the pole and followed Jiang Qing's instructions, fulfilling it once.It really saves a lot of labor. If tribal women go out to pick and collect on weekdays, if they can have rattan baskets and rattan baskets, they don’t have to worry about being unable to hold them.

After seeing the usefulness of rattan baskets and rattan baskets, Yingjie hurriedly asked people to remove all the things that had been packed earlier and put them into the woven rattan baskets.

Tribal animal skins are limited and do not know how to weave. Most of the animal skins are used to make animal skin clothes and skirts for body wrapping.The rest of the dry season has to be protected from frost, and the few left can be sewn into animal skin bags to hold things.

Yingjie was originally worried that things would not be easy to carry, so he was already prepared to throw some away.Dangerous at night, they can't fly in the night sky in beast form, and it's hard to hold things in human form.

Now with rattan baskets and rattan baskets, everything is settled.

When Yingyun and his party reappeared, two-thirds of the accumulated green vines were woven into rattan baskets and baskets.They are strong, even if they carry rattan baskets, they can still carry rattan baskets on their shoulders. Jiang Qing is not worried that there will be leftover rattan baskets and rattan baskets.

Seeing that things were in a mess, Jiang Qing felt her body aches and pains.At this moment, the sky was pitch black, and occasionally a few birds returning to their nests screamed a few times when they heard the noise here.

"Clan Chief Yingjie, arrange for someone to prepare dinner!" Jiang Qing said.

All the saplings were packed into rattan baskets, and the packed luggage was packed one after another. There were not enough rattan baskets and rattan baskets, so there were still a lot of things piled up beside them.

Jiang Qing looked it over, there were not many things, they were all collected food.

"I'll arrange it now!" Yingjie raised his head and saw that the things were almost in order, "Dan Li, you ask some people to prepare dinner, we have almost finished packing here. Thirty or forty rattan baskets and wicker baskets are enough for weaving It's..."

Green vines are very common, Yingjie is not in a hurry.And Jiang Qing also said that green vines are more durable after being boiled in boiling water. The rattan baskets they wove can be used, but it is better if they are boiled in boiling water.

Yingjie pondered, when he arrived at the migration place.Ask Danli to re-weave shoe rattan baskets and rattan baskets, preferably green rattans that have been boiled in boiling water.

"Okay, I'm going to prepare barbecue and fruit." Dan Li said.

Jiang Qing looked strangely at Lang Mo.

"Danli is Yingjie's partner!" Lang Mo said.

Jiang Qing suddenly realized that it was no wonder that Danli could easily command other people. It turned out that she was the wife of the patriarch.So Danli is Yingyun's mother?Although it wasn't real, Dan Li looked very young, not at all like a woman with a son as old as Ying Yun!
On second thought, though.

In the Beast God Continent, their longevity is not surprising.

When she was in the tribe back then, she felt that Aunt Qing was very young, and Uncle Wolf looked like brothers to Lang Mo.

Watching Danli set up a stone pot on the campfire and add water to it with a ladle.

With a flash in Jiang Qing's eyes, she stared at the ladle in Danli's hand in shock. If she was not mistaken, it was a gourd that had been cut open.

"Dan Li, what are you holding?" Jiang Qing stepped forward and asked.

Dan Li looked over, waved the water ladle on her hand, and said, "You? I don't know what this is, but it's not edible, so it's good for water."

"Can you show me?" Jiang Qing asked.

"Here!" Dan Li handed it over directly.

Lang Mo stepped forward and saw Jiang Qing staring at the things in Dan Li's hands with bright eyes. He didn't see this expression very often.Every time Jiang Qing finds something good, she always has this expression.

"Jiang Qing, what's wrong with this thing?" Lang Mo asked.

Jiang Qing laughed and said, "This is a gourd, but it's a good thing!"

"Gourd?" Lang Mo repeated, asking: "What's the use?"

Hearing that this is a good thing, Yingjie and the others immediately became excited.There are a lot of these things collected in the tribe, but they are useless. They are played by the tribe children on weekdays.
