Through the wild age

When spring came, Chen Qiao planted a piece of taro at the door. He said it was "planting", but in fact he dug a hole in the ground and threw the taro directly into it. He hoped that there would be some harvest in autumn.

He tied sharp stones to wooden sticks to make a simple axe. When he was chopping trees with this axe, he suddenly remembered the paragraph about cavemen in his previous textbook.

In the past, he looked at the photos in the textbooks, those crude production tools, and unconsciously felt the superiority of being a modern person.How rough and backward these things are, how advanced the world is now, maybe he didn't realize his thoughts at that time, but this kind of understanding did exist.

Now he has really come to such a world, using the simplest tools, eating the roughest food, and living in a stone house without windows.He finally understood one thing, that is, after thousands of years of accumulation of human civilization, various production technologies have been continuously improved.But this does not mean that the wisdom of human beings has also improved a lot with the development of history. Whether it is Dila, Macy or Kevin, they are no less stupid than Chen Qiao.

Life is not good, just because the tools are too scarce.People's minds are limited only because the world they see is only so big.

Chen Qiao disagreed with Dila going out hunting with Kevin. Although this child is eager to do something for everyone, he is still too young, less than nine years old.

On this day, Kevin brought back a few young wild boars, and Chen Qiao built a rough but strong fence by the stream to keep the wild boars inside.Teach Dilla to know several kinds of hogweed, and since then the wild boar has become a domestic pig, and Dilla has his first job.

A few days later, Kevin brought back some pheasants, and Chen Qiao chopped off some long and hard feathers from the wings of the pheasants with stones, and put them in the fence to raise them together.Then Dila and the two of them used the branches and vines to enclose a small piece of land as a chicken coop on a few big trees next to the house, and built a shelter for the rain.

Every day from now on, Dila will take Maixi to hunt hogweeds to catch bugs, and Ada will go out hunting with Kevin. Chen Qiao sometimes takes care of the taro in the field, weeds and so on, and sometimes goes to the beach to pick up some Seafood is back.

When the sun was setting, he was walking towards the hut, and Mai Xi saw Chen Qiao from a long distance away, and ran towards this side swinging his round buttocks.

"Dad, Dad..." while running, he opened his mouth and called Chen Qiao.

"En, so cute." Bending down to pick up the little one, this kind of scene is performed every day, which makes him feel very warm, and the hard work of the day is gone.

"Father, this... what is it?" He was still not speaking very sharply now, but he was very curious when he saw the red fruit Chen Qiao brought back wrapped in lotus leaves.

"This one, it's sweet." Chen Qiao liked his greedy cat-like face very much, and couldn't help but make some delicious and fun things to please him.

As a result, when the child heard it was sweet, he reached out to grab it. He ate some honey a while ago, and it made him smile when he ate it so sweet. Now he gets excited when he hears something sweet.As soon as Chen Qiao raised her hand, she dodged it. This food had to be soaked in salt water before giving it to children.

So for the next time, Mai Xi pulled Chen Qiao's thighs up and down, and refused to leave even a single step. After soaking these little strawberries in salt water, Chen Qiao asked Mai Xi, "Do you want to share with brother?"

"No." The little boy answered decisively and decisively.

"Really, what if brother doesn't like Macy in the future?"

"Hmm..." So the kid began to hesitate, after all, his elder brother takes him to play every day, and his elder brother loves him, but...

"Oh, this fruit looks really good. What if Maixi wants to eat it all by herself? Dila really wants to eat it too..."

"Brother, brother, eat..." The kid finally decided to call his brother over to eat together. Seeing his running back, Chen Qiao smiled gratifiedly.

They are usually too busy to discipline their children. A person's temperament and character are formed at a very young age. He does not want this child to grow into a big man who shakes the world, but there are certain qualities he must possess.For example, being generous and not being selfish.

While thinking about it, he squeezed a fruit and threw it into his mouth, saying that this kind of wild fruit is still so delicious, sweet and sour.

"Father doesn't eat, Xixi's." She was caught without eating two, Chen Qiao complained about her bad luck, and lamented that the education work just now was for nothing.

The two brothers sat on the rocks under the big tree next to the house with fruits, you and I enjoyed eating one by one, Chen Qiao was dissatisfied: two little white-eyed wolves!

Ada knows how to make pottery. The tribe they lived in used to use a lot of pottery pots. Basically, women in the tribe know how to make these things. The only difference lies in the level of craftsmanship.Widow Ida is very capable, and his craftsmanship is among the best in the tribe.

In the spring, Ada added a lot of pottery to the family. She found clay suitable for making pots at the foot of a nearby mountain.

There has been a lot of rain these days, and a lot of mushrooms have grown on the mountain. Except for some brightly colored ones, Chen Qiao picked them home, and then threw a few of each species to the chicken coop for the pheasants to try first. The results proved that the common mountain mushrooms are non-toxic.

This day, Chen Qiao picked a lot of small mushrooms, and dug some wild onions back. He had eaten this kind of wild onions before. The leaves are very thin and long, and the onions are also small. It is very troublesome to wash, but it tastes delicious .

Kevin brought back another pheasant today, but it was injured and it was not easy to raise.They killed chickens, washed mushrooms and shallots, and put clay pots on the fire to boil a pot of chicken soup.The pheasant meat is very chewy, boiled for a long time, one bite, and even the meat on the belt is fresh and sweet.The soup has a strong aroma of mushrooms and green onions, which is indescribably delicious.

Little Mai Xi ate a big bowl by himself, and his belly was bulging and plump.He was probably a little tired after eating too much, he leaned on his brother and hummed, and fell asleep after a while.

Dila is very sensible now, and after his brother fell asleep, he moved him to the mat in the house and covered him with animal skins.Then let a few adults rest first, and clean up the fire and clay pots and tableware by themselves.

The sun had already set, and the golden clouds in the sky were mixed with blue. Chen Qiao leaned under the tree and watched Dila's busy figure.

Such a sensible child, how can I be willing to let you live your life like this.
