Orcs through the age

Chapter 21 Planting, Sons, Linguistics

Recently, I began to feel that the reserves are not enough, and I don’t have time to go out to find food. Although now because of the trap and everyone has enough energy to work, no one in the clan is hungry anymore, but I am a person who will panic if I don’t have reserves. At that time, the houses in the clan were all built, and everyone ate for themselves. How could we do without reserves?And my livestock have not developed except for that cow and those three sheep.I thought, I'm afraid it will take a day or two for the tribe to build the house by themselves, and I have to go out by myself.

Because the people who came from the same clan did not have a house, the house built today was allocated to their family of three with one child. After living there, it is probably better for them to be familiar with people.

So I let the single females who were originally borrowed from me live in one room, and Nahan and his younger brother lived in one room, and two other families with children were arranged in the hall.

Seeing that the newly laid wooden floor quickly turned black, I began to think that after everyone settled down, I would gradually replace the wooden boards on the logs with stone boards. Prosper, and then try to replace the floor with thick ceramic tiles, which are fireproof and don't have to worry about rot, and as long as the gaps are reduced, you don't have to worry about crawlers crawling in.I did the same thing later when I built another house.

Luo Lei came back at night, listened to what I said, and decided to let Bei Luo take everyone to hunt instead of him the next day. He would accompany me out tomorrow. The two of us cooperated well, so we agreed.He went out to talk to Bello and the other leaders of the hunt, and then he came back to sleep, and, of course, to me again.I found that it's okay after I get used to it, maybe this is the adaptability of people, well, sometimes it's not a good thing.

The next day I went out with Luo Lei, except that we caught two wild sheep and caught eight or nine fish, but we didn't get much.There is no way, there are not many vegetables in spring, and I am not familiar with other females of wild vegetables. I just dug a dozen wild lettuces on the grassland.Instead, I went to the mountain to look at the potatoes and sweet potatoes, and they have already grown seedlings. The potatoes are really like vines, and they are evergreen all year round. However, some of them may have been gnawed off by herbivores in winter, and now some new shoots have emerged from the ground. , but not yet tall.Some sprouts also appeared in the sweet potato field. It seems that the sweet potatoes left in the field have sprouted, but the sweet potatoes are quite dense, and the sprouts are all gathered together, squeezing around. It is estimated that only the strongest Can survive.

The land at home hasn’t been opened yet, so I can only dig some seedlings and plant them another day, but I’m afraid I’m going to be busy these days, I have to fill the shallow cesspit, and then open the ground on it, and at the same time I have to dig a deeper cesspit, I'm afraid I'm busy.

I said that I would try planting. Although the people in the clan were surprised, they still accepted it. Even those who came from the clan knew that I had a special status in the clan and vaguely knew about the rumors in the clan. Knowing that they are from the same clan, they are more cautious.People's thoughts cannot be changed in a day or two, so I can only take my time.But my plan still got everyone's cooperation.

I no longer stare at the progress of the house, but the old patriarch. The cooking is also organized by the old patriarch's female Amon Amo. The clan has sent a few males to help me tidy up the land and the septic tank Also dug separately, my job is to transplant those seedlings.

Nahan’s younger brother was much better the next day, and he was able to run in the field in the next few days, because he heard some children from the Yi tribe call me Anuoa, and he also learned to call me, but unfortunately he couldn’t learn all of them, so he changed somehow. Became Ah Mo Ah Mo, and later simply called Ah Mo.

The child looks really cute, especially when he wears the animal skin skirt that Ah Man made for him (forgive me for my poor needlework, Luo Lei decided that he can bear it, if the child is a child, he should ask others to help), plus his Some curly hair, like a little doll, makes my hands itch.Ah Mo passed away not long after this child was born, so he has never seen Ah Mo, but he is very close to me, Ah Mo. No child was so close to me in the past.So I was also happy to hug him and coax him.This child is also very good. When I transplanted vegetable seedlings one by one in the vegetable field, he squatted aside and watched.

Nahan couldn't do anything about him. He saw me transplanting vegetable seedlings, and followed me to learn how to plant vegetable seedlings in the vegetable field.It took a few days like this, but it filled up a piece of land. In those few days, accompanied by Luo Lei, I went around several nearby mountains and transplanted sweet potatoes and potatoes that could be transplanted.With the help of Nahan, these seedlings were planted in the vegetable field behind the wooden shed.

About half an acre of potatoes was planted, and nearly an acre of sweet potatoes were planted.In addition, I sprinkled a lot of pumpkin seeds near the wooden pile, sprinkled a lot of pepper seeds on the edge of the ground, and sprinkled the only soybeans I had left on the edge of the pool, and sprinkled them in the wooden shed. A small piece of rapeseed and cottonseed was sprinkled in front, and a small piece of land on both sides of the house was planted with the remaining barley and wheat. I don’t know much about how to plant this wheat, so You can only sow the seeds evenly and directly into the ground according to the method of dividing the pits, and then water and fertilize according to the method in memory, but the survival rate is unknown.

Of course, whether it is potatoes or sweet potatoes, I have left some shoots untreated. One is to see how they will grow. On the other hand, it is also to show the tribe that I have not completely destroyed their natural growth. Success does not mean that I have ruined everyone's harvest too much.

Of course, this may also be my villainous heart. People here do not have that kind of private concept at present, and they have a very inexplicable trust in me, and they have never questioned what I do.However, I still like to be careful, and I still leave a way out for myself in everything. No matter what kind of person, they are all equally pure when they are born, and later, they all become different people.

Before the hot summer, 54 houses including my house were built in the clan. In addition to those families who each have one, some single females or single females with some children also grouped together according to their wishes. one.Even Old Pod was invited by our High Priest to live with him.Old Bean Pod glared at me triumphantly after being invited, and made me laugh out loud. As far as our High Priest is concerned, the possibility that his life will be better, well, only the High Priest knows.

Next to my house, a large frame house was built in the place reserved for the hall as the family house. The hall in the middle of the family house is used for meetings, etc., and the two sides are used to store things in the family and winter food.Of course, many rows of shelves were made inside to pile up those reserves very high.In addition to the family house, there are four temporary houses, which are used for temporary dispatch, and can temporarily accommodate new families and so on.

Nahan didn't want to live with others, but he was still young, and his younger brother was used to living in our house, and he got used to it as well. Finally, after discussion in the clan, we asked Nahan what he meant, and it was decided that we and I would live together. Luo Lei adopted the two of them. Anyway, no matter what time it is, I still have confidence in raising two children.

It's just that the name Nahan reminds me of a famous painting that is extremely distorted.However, their custom is that after the child is adopted, the new Abba and Ah Mo will be named again to express acceptance and bestowal, so I propose to change Nahan’s name to Rona, although it makes me feel like Rona, but it’s good or bad. She's still a pretty cute baby, isn't she?As for his female younger brother, his father hadn't given him an official name. They always called him Ah Xiao. I thought about it and named him A Rui.

Originally, I planned to call him Luo Rui according to the Chinese naming rules.But Luo Lei said that their family name is not Luo, it should be said that their family has no surname. To be precise, everyone here has no surname.He and Luo Lie's names are just because they are called like that, but the males here will have two different names, while the females will all be named with one word.I don't know what the old patriarch's name is, and everyone still calls him the patriarch according to the old name. It's also impolite for me to ask Luo Lei what his father's name is.So when he said that, I was surprised, I always thought his surname was Luo!It's as if I always thought Xin Mu's surname was Xin!

I told him, it can't be so casual, right?Wouldn't he not even remember his grandparents in the future?Of course, I also know that people here do not have the habit of offering sacrifices to their ancestors. If people here die in the clan, they will be cremated.If their parents were like Ah Man’s Abba and Ah Mo, they didn’t even have anything to miss, no reason for sacrifice, and no tribute for sacrifice. It seems that worshiping ancestors is still a little rich in material life. Generations begin.As for the written records, there are no written words here, and even the history of the tribe is passed on orally by priests and patriarchs.

But this is still unacceptable to someone like me who is used to traditional education and has a big family. Although that big family didn't let me get anything good, I still have some inexplicable attachments to family traditions.

I told Luo Lei that everyone's life will get better and better in the future. It is best for everyone to have a surname, so no matter what the name of the younger generation is, at least they can know who their parents and ancestors are.Luo Lei said that he should think about this issue carefully, think about it, think about it, if he wants to think about something else, he will have less time to think about my innocence, so I actively suggested that he think about it.

However, I couldn't decide on this matter at once. I also found that the word Rory was pronounced a bit like the English pronunciation of "labor", so I called him Ari first.What about the pronunciation rules here? It’s a bit like Esperanto. It’s weird. Unfortunately, I don’t know much about linguistics, and I can’t tell you how ugly I am. Let’s see if any linguistics comrades come over in the future—this is definitely a curse. Ha ha.
