A cold autumn rain.

The fields in the tribe have already been planted with wheat and rice seeds. Wen Xiaobao said that the snow season here is too cold for planting now, and it will not be ready until next spring.Originally, according to experience, rice seedlings should be planted first, and then moved to paddy fields. It can be seen that the land where rice originally grew did not need to be artificially transplanted in the later stage. It only needs to cultivate a wetland by the river. How to plant it depends on I am thinking about next spring.

The meat left by the prey group that attacked in June has been eaten until now. Everyone was very happy at first, but the hot weather can only be made into cured meat or bacon. After eating it for less than a month, it gets boring, although It is tiring to work every day, but some people still go to hunt some small game. Anyway, according to Zhengmao, the big hole for storing food has been filled with half a hole, such as potatoes, bacon, bacon, wild vegetables and dried mushrooms.Now that the firing of bricks on the Great Wall has stopped, the tribe is divided into two teams, one team hunts and the other goes to the seaside to cook salt. The temporary resting place is the small cave where Gao Ming originally lived. After all, it saves half the time.

Bujia took more than a dozen people to cook salt, Gao Ming took the sweet potatoes brought back by the people, washed the mud and dried them in the hole. As for the roots that Xiaobao ordered to bring back, they are said to be used as seeds, but they have to wait. It can only be planted in the spring of the next year.Zhengmao led more than 40 people to start a crazy hunt, Wen Xiaobao also followed, Gao Ming gave him a special knife and said nothing, anyway, following Zhengmao's group, no matter how dangerous it is Also small.

Xiaoan and Xiaole are one year old, and now they can call people. They catch Gao Ming all day long and call him Mingming, and Gao Ming’s head is getting bigger. If he corrects and emphasizes, the two little guys will shout more happily, especially Xiaole’s shouting at the same time. There is grievance in one side of the eyes, Gao Ming's heart softens when he looks at it, it's obvious, it's obvious!Just finished speaking, how can there be watery grievances in Xiao Le's eyes?The whole body giggled vigorously.

"Mingming!" Xiao Le sat on the wooden walker made by Xiaohe and walked towards Gao Ming. Gao Ming opened his arms and hugged him, "Xiao Le is good! Are you hungry?"

Sitting on the leather, Xiao An stumbled, his heart trembled, but luckily he walked unsteadily so he didn't fall.Lin Zi and Qi have always treated Xiaoan with beating education and rough upbringing. In Lin Zi's eyes, how can a boy be strong if he hasn't fallen? !Xiao An walked up to Gao Ming, grinned, stretched out her arms to hug Gao Ming, and shouted Mingming Mingming.

Gao Ming hugged Xiao Le and sat beside the leather case, and put Xiao Le on the leather case. The furry leather was covered with a mat and the dry grass was not hard. There were all kinds of toys on the leather case, and the two little guys loved to play on it. soft.

"Are you hungry?" Gao Ming pinched Xiao An's plump face, "The children in the whole tribe are not as big as you!"

The big-faced Ann seemed to have not heard it, and blew a bubble of saliva in his mouth, and his eyes lit up when he heard eating, "Eat, eat! Yes!" Sitting next to him, Xiao Le was holding a small wooden horse in his hand, and his head Without raising it, "Obviously eat!"

"You two are foodies!" Gao Ming touched Xiao Le's head, "Sit here with my brother, and I'll get you something to eat."

A bowl of Gugu custard was stewed on the stove in the cave. After a summer of captivity, the number of Gugu in the grove surrounded by barbed wire has reached 32. The eggs that were only provided for cubs every day can now be eaten by everyone in the cave. Two bites, wild vegetable scrambled eggs and omelets are even more common.Gao Ming brought out the custard from the stove, and Gao Ming dripped some seafood soy sauce refined from the water boiled from the red-shelled meat, and it smelled delicious all at once.

The stewed tender custard was drizzled with seafood-flavored soy sauce, Gao Ming cut it open with a wooden spoon, "Try whether it's hot first!" He put the spoon into his mouth.

Xiao An has been looking at Gao Ming eagerly, and seeing Gao Ming eating egg custard, he shouted loudly: "Eat it! Eat it!"

Gao Ming was sitting on the leather with a bowl in his hand, seeing Xiao An looking at him with big eyes, he teased, "Xiao An is so nice, I'll eat it." After digging a spoonful, Xiao An stared at the wooden spoon, Gao Ming stuffed the spoon into it. A smile appeared in his mouth, "It's delicious!"

Xiao An was in so much pain that he covered his face with his fleshy hands and fell to the ground!Xiao Le put down the toy in his hand, patted Xiao An's buttocks, "Obviously eat first!" Xiao An didn't pretend to be dead, and sat up, her two little meaty legs wanted to sit cross-legged like a master, after tossing for a while give up.Gao Ming took the wooden spoon and blew the custard into Xiao Le's mouth, "Xiao Le still loves me!" The second spoon was stuffed into Xiao An's mouth, "Is it delicious?"

"Good time!" Xiao An narrowed his eyes.

He beat two Gugu eggs for a bowl of custard, and Xiao Le was full after eating a third of it. It seems that he is not full yet, staring at the empty bowl and then at Gao Ming, the meaning is obvious, why is he full before eating?

Gao Ming pinched Xiao An's round face, "I'll eat it later when your mother comes back!" How big can a child's stomach be?Don't overeat and eat too much to hurt your stomach.Gao Ming looked at the light outside the cave entrance, and he was coming back soon.

As soon as the bowls and spoons were cleaned, there was a sound from the hole. Gao Ming saw that Qi and Xiaohe were opening the door with wooden basins outside the iron fence.

"I just fed custard to Xiaoan and Xiaole. It is estimated that Brother Lin and Landasa will not be back at noon. Let's eat first?" Rows of clothes were put on the rope outside the entrance of the cave, most of which belonged to the two little guys. He and Dashi washed two sets of laundry, and Qi washed the most. Gao Ming only washed for Bujia and him two days ago, and there is no clothes for him today. "Look at the kids, there are chestnuts stewed on the stove, it's probably already tasty and juiced, I'll steam some potatoes and mix them with vegetables to make a puree, and you can feed Xiao An some more, this guy eats more and more .”

Xiaohe put a wooden basin to the side of the cave, and came out to help scoop up the rice.Now everyone is used to wearing cotton clothes, which are comfortable to absorb sweat and convenient for hunting.Autumn is here, and the women in the tribe start making clothes in their spare time. The half-sleeved jackets and trousers made of slightly thicker cotton are very popular. Men often do hard work, and hunting is even more so among the weeds. Not to mention that it is inconvenient to wear long trousers and long sleeves, and it hurts if it is scratched.I do a lot of exercise, so I don’t feel cold in a thicker cotton gown and trousers. After another day, I’m sweating profusely. As for the snow season, I put on a gown made of leather, two layers to keep warm from the cold.

They couldn't eat that much of a large pot of stewed chestnuts. Gao Ming had half of the pot left, so he could make some extra if he came back from hunting in the afternoon.Xiaohe quickly scraped a potato, Gao Ming washed the tender green wild vegetables, blanched them and chopped them into froth, and the potatoes steamed by Xiaohe here are also ready, use a wooden spoon to mix the vegetable froth to press the mashed potatoes until smooth. Add some salt and seafood soy sauce to enhance the flavor, and stir well. It doesn’t look good, but the taste is really good. Xiaoan Xiaole likes this most.

Qi first fed Xiao An and ate half a bowl of mashed potatoes and vegetables. Xiao Le took a few mouthfuls after smelling the aroma, but his stomach was not big, so he stopped eating after three or four mouthfuls. To eat, Qi withdrew the bowl and refused to feed it.

"It's hard to digest if you eat too much!" Qi kissed her son's cheek, "Let's save it for the afternoon and drink a few sips of water." After feeding the two sons and drinking water, Qi picked up the bowl and started eating by herself.

"The sun is born in these few days, right?" Gao Ming felt that several of the tribe's bellies were pregnant, perhaps because their lives were better and they were able to eat enough. In recent months, almost all the women in the tribe were able to conceive.

Qi ate a mouthful of chestnuts, and the stewed noodles also sucked the juice of Gu Gu, which tasted so good, no wonder Landa likes this, and she likes it too. "I went down to watch the sun, and my big belly seems to be about to give birth. It should be these few days." I counted my fingers again, "There are four more soon to be born in a few days, and more will be born in the snow season. It's time for six. I just heard from Taiyang that Li and the mugwort and Lvteng in Agun's cave are also pregnant. "

Gao Ming nodded, "Xiaohe, your master is busy during the day recently. If you have a baby, you can go and see what can help you." In addition to learning carpentry from Xiaobao, Xiaohe also learned to recognize herbs and feel the pulse, but only a few months. Not really, it was busy during this period, but he was better than him. Back then, he was a blessing from God for delivering Qi's baby, and Qi's life was too high. Now thinking about it, I would be afraid to use scissors and stitches.

Xiao He nodded to show his understanding, the three of them were full and cleaned up the dishes.Gao Ming rummaged through the wild vegetables sun-dried outside the entrance of the cave. It rained a few days ago. Gao Ming knew that the snow season was coming, but within ten days, he remembered that he ate meat and potatoes during the snow season in the cave last time. Gao Ming The chrysanthemum is tight, so we must prepare more wild vegetables this time.

Three days later, Bujia, who boiled salt by the sea, came back with his people. There were ten bags of coarse salt in cotton bags. Although they had to process them when they came back, they were enough for the whole tribe to use after the snow season.During this period of time, the remaining salt was consumed crazily, more and more bacon, and more and more fur in the cave. Gao Ming Xiaoheqi tanned the leather every day, and now there are Ten or so sheets. I heard from Landa that the cave at the bottom of the mountain is the same. If there are newborn children in the cave, two more skins will be given. The new life is the future strength of the entire tribe. We must ensure that we can survive the snow season safely.

That night outside the entrance of the cave, there was a bean-heavy rain, thunder rumbled in the sky, Xiaoan was crying all the time in the cave, and Lin Zi was wandering in the cave with the child in his arms. Li was so distressed that Gao Ming cooked a pot of brown sugar paste and asked Qi to feed the two of them. As soon as Xiao An's mouth touched the sweetness, he stopped crying. Xiao Le couldn't hear Xiao An's crying, and became much more stable.

Three oil lamps were lit in the cave. Bujia opened the window and it was pitch black outside. Heavy rain and wind poured in from the window. After closing the window, his face was a little bad. "This time the snow season seems to come earlier." The last snow Season comes early, this time even earlier.

Zhengmao also noticed something unusual, "every time it gets colder." When he was a child, he felt cold without a fire to keep him warm, but now that he has a fire and he has grown up, he still feels cold. "The snow season is much bigger than before."

Buga nodded. "Stop hunting from tomorrow, burn charcoal, put a stove in each hole, but be careful of poisoning."

"I'll tell the tribal people." Zhengmao nodded. The amount of meat in the tribe had reached an amount he had never seen before. The entire hole for storing food could no longer fit. It was time to prepare firewood.

It had been raining for two days, and Gao Ming was worried about the crops in the field. Later, he thought, when they didn't plant them, the wild ones would still grow well. They don't need to worry about what kind of seeds the weather creates. .

Two days later, the weather cleared up, charcoal burning began in the tribe, women began to cook fine salt, and started to work again, but the temperature suddenly became much colder.

The busy days in the tribe unknowingly ushered in the first heavy snow.
