Marry a Wife In the Orc World - Chapter 31
“True, Lantian, come and do me a favor.” Cheng Cheng finally finished the straw mat at hand and stretched out. Such a thick straw mat is very difficult to pick up by one person, and it is even more difficult to make a bed.
“It’s so beautiful.” Afeng looked at this very densely woven straw mat with admiration. He knew that Cheng Cheng took a long time to make it. It was thick and big, and the whole piece was laid on the haystack and then covered with the mattress. Cheng Cheng’s bed is even more prominent. It’s much better than everyone’s pile of animal skins spread directly on the ground, but it’s a pity that Cheng Cheng is still dissatisfied with a bed like this. Sleeping is originally a kind of enjoyment. The better the bed, the more comfortable it is to sleep. In fact, in such a cold place, there is no quilt. Although the fur is warm, it is not as light and warm as a quilt. If you want to sleep well It’s best to be Zhang Huo Keng in Nuan He, but for Cheng Cheng, who grew up in the south, Huo Keng was only seen on TV, and he hadn’t personally experienced it, let alone how to do it.
Lan Lan is a person who must do everything well. After finishing Cheng Cheng’s bed, he immediately went to make pants. For the past two days, he has been studying the new way of pants with Afeng Ajutru together. The other is The matter is not in his sight.
Making a bed is very troublesome. Because the bed is relatively large, Cheng Cheng chose a few thick bamboos, dragged them into the house, and opened them like roasting, preparing to make a bed frame first, and making the rest a larger dining table. Make a few stools. Nowadays, there are guests coming in from time to time at home, so it’s not easy to let people stand. When you are used to eating, you can sit at the table properly. Cheng Cheng is very uncomfortable to sit on the ground or squat when you eat. In fact, most people eat here just holding a piece of meat. Where tables, chairs and benches are needed, they don’t even need tables and chopsticks, not to mention that everyone is accustomed to sitting or sleeping on the ground casually. After Cheng Cheng came, under his leadership and influence, at least the five people who live in this family now eat very well. They drink a bowl of meat and vegetable soup first, and then gnaw the meat, so everyone has their own bowl to eat. , They are all sitting around a simple dining table at home. This dining table is actually nothing more than a few small stones with a thin slab on top. Cheng Cheng has long been uncomfortable with it, but he really doesn’t have the time and energy to make a table first. The table had to be used for so long.
In the evening, Shi Yan and An Mu came, and they came to pick up the two brothers Afeng, who reluctantly left here, and made an appointment with the blue sky. Come back in a few days and bring some fur to do it together. Pants. Shi Yan and An Mu saw that their females were doing well here, and immediately agreed to send them back in a few days. Thank you very much for your care.
Lantian and Truguan stayed in the room for three days. Lantian finally made a new pair of pants. This time he made a new pair of trousers. The trousers are obviously better than the last one, and they are more fit and reasonable. . Cheng Cheng was overjoyed. Not only did the blue sky wear his own pants, but he would also follow it. It’s so cold, so you can wear a few more fur pants and go outside. I don’t dare to go out now, even though I am wearing animal skin culottes and a coat, it is still very cold.
Cheng Cheng piled up all the supplies in the simple house built by the first beasts. It was the warehouse of the house where he lives now. From the beginning, Cheng Cheng built a passage between the two houses so that he could get in and out easily. Things, bamboo, hay, brown leaves, brown silk, etc., including the goat with broken legs he brought back were all inside. This is the way he used to live in the countryside, everyone should have the kitchen behind the main house, but the kitchen in the past is much better than the bamboo house he lives in now, at least the house is covered with bricks and tiles. It is big and bright, and usually eats in the kitchen, except for holidays or guests, only eat in the main hall. Thinking that his own bamboo house is still the highest-end mansion here, Cheng Cheng couldn’t help but feel happy.
Hearing his laughter, Lantian poked his head out, but found that Cheng Cheng was laughing alone, and asked strangely: “Cheng Cheng, what do you think? So happy.”
“Hey, Lantian also helped me make a new pair of pants. Why don’t you take my coat and study it, and help me make a new fur coat in this style.” Cheng Cheng took the opportunity to demand. Since the blue sky can make pants, he must also make a new coat. To be honest, the coat you are wearing is not very easy to wear. In order to make it easier to put on it, make it wider, put on the empty body, and the wind blows. It felt colder, and because there were no sleeves, it was even colder on the arms.
“You think it’s so simple. I’ll make the pants first. Let’s make one for each of you.” Lantian ignored him and carried out according to his own plan. He admired his new trousers for a while before he began to help Cheng Cheng make new trousers, and then he had to make them for Tru, although Tru could help him, but Tru’s craftsmanship really made him look down on, most of the time. Everything is done by Lantian himself.
“Blue sky is really smart.” Trulli sighed sincerely. In his life in making clothes, it is impossible for him to have the cleverness of the blue sky, and it is impossible to have such a good craftsmanship as the blue sky. Now that the blue sky is willing to make clothes for the father and son, he is grateful and happy. .
“Well, it is.” Cheng Cheng also nodded in favor, and chose a small piece of fur to let Lantian help him make a pair of gloves first. He drew a simple picture of the glove, the simplest one, with only one big pointed out, and the other four fingers were all together, not separated. Such gloves are still very useful without meticulous work.
“What is this?” Lantian asked puzzledly.
“Gloves, they are on your hands.” Cheng Cheng explained.
“Oh. What are you going to do?” Lantian asked again. He didn’t believe that Cheng Cheng made this thing because his hands were cold. There was always a fire at home, and no one was wearing gloves.
“I want to go out and get some fish. In such a cold day, I’m afraid my hands may freeze if I don’t wear gloves.” Cheng Cheng didn’t hide it from them.
“How to get fish?” Truu became interested immediately. He is more interested in food than clothes now. After all, the clothes can be barely worn, but the food is really much worse. People who have been hungry are always afraid of being hungry.
“Using brown silk, weave a fishing net out, and then you can go fishing.” Cheng Cheng took out the bamboo needle he just made. This kind of three-pronged bamboo needle made of a small piece of bamboo is Specially used for weaving nets, it is very simple, you can weave all kinds of fishing nets according to the thickness of the thread.
“How do you use this? What is a fish net?” Tru carefully played with the bamboo needle in his hand. He was very eager to know how to use this thing, how to make a net, and how to use a net to catch fish.
Cheng Cheng motioned to twist the brown silk into a thin rope, and then called it Truong. Truong was very clever in doing these tasks, and he quickly learned it. The two of them kept rubbing the ropes, and slowly piled a pile of brown ropes on the ground. Although the brown ropes were thicker, Cheng Cheng thought that the fishes here were originally bigger. It should be possible to catch big fish. I didn’t want to weave a net that was too big, because I was afraid that the net was too big to be dragged.
Weave a small net, a few fish can be pulled up by one net is enough, it is great to pull the net several times. With the foundation of weaving mats a few days ago, Trull quickly learned when weaving nets. Because the ropes are thick and the nets are relatively rough, they can be woven quickly. Seeing the fish net woven into this way, Cheng Cheng couldn’t help but laugh. It was too unlike a fish net. It looked like a large hammock. If the two ends were tied with thick ropes, they could be tied to a tree as a hammock.
“Can such a net catch a lot of fish?” Lantian expressed doubt.
Cheng Cheng looked at it and felt a little skeptical, but he felt that this net could be used to net birds. There are many birds here, and they are not small, but everyone will not catch them for food at all, because they are too small. , Not much meat. But Cheng Cheng didn’t dislike it. He had eaten even birds as small as sparrows before. Compared with sparrows, the birds here are completely giant. It’s bigger than a chicken, one can weigh three or four catties less, and ten can be thirty or forty catties. It’s a few hundred catties of meat if you get it for nothing, and the bird meat is more tender and tastes more delicious. Besides, birds that have not been preyed by humans are those birds that have lived very close to humans for a long time and are easily caught. When I was young, there were a lot of sparrows in the countryside. In the winter, every household made fried rice and rice cakes. Sometimes when people left the kitchen, a group of sparrows would rush to the table to eat fried rice. At this moment, some people quickly close the doors and windows, and shut all the sparrows at home, catch them and eat them. Cheng Cheng still remembered that at that time, his favorite thing to do was this kind of thing. The children would compare each other, who caught more sparrows, and sometimes brought live sparrows out to play.
There are many big trees around the village, and it is also close to the forest. There are also a lot of birds in the surrounding area. In such a cold day, Chengcheng often sees the sounds of birds. When most of the beasts are hibernating, Only birds have become the only source of meat.
Truly can’t wait to go fishing soon. Lantian had to put the sewing of gloves first, but because he hadn’t stitched it before, he had to let everyone open their hands and compare them directly with their hands. Cut out the animal skins, one on the front and one on the back, and two more. The animal skins were stitched together, because only one thumb was separated, and soon the simplest pair of gloves was made.
Cheng Cheng tried on the gloves that Lantian had just made, and he looked around, and it took him a long time to understand why the gloves looked so awkward. It turns out that the gloves he used to wear were very finely crafted, especially the gloves made of woolen yarn, which couldn’t find the joints or the stitching. Even for leather gloves, people also sew those seams inside, but the gloves made by Lantian are sewn directly, so the thread ends and the stitched interface are all left outside. Such gloves are the same as the gloves we usually use. The reverse side is the same, just like we usually wear the reverse side of our clothes outside, doesn’t it look weird.
