Doomsday Fast Travel: Kill That Black Butterfly

Chapter 233 The Burning Homeland (7)

After a series of questions and answers, Yu Di had a rough understanding of the local marriage customs.The Huimo tribe does not have a fixed system of monogamy. Instead, "communal marriage" is popular, that is, you can freely choose who you can live with and where you can live. Under normal circumstances, the children will live with their father and be raised by their father.Of course there are some with my mother, not many.

After a bar mitzvah, a woman receives a gift of assets from her mother and the entire tribe, lives in a separate house, and chooses a male of her age to live with.Under normal circumstances, both parties will tend to choose someone who already has children to form a partnership. This is the easiest way to prove that the other party has normal fertility.

Heirs will inherit their parents' surnames at the same time. People with outstanding abilities can submit a sum of money to the tribe to apply for land. After obtaining the materials, they can build their own residence alone. Chunan's home was decorated bit by bit by himself. After reaching the leader, he moved to the center position.But generally speaking, most men will choose to live directly with women who own homes through co-living, so that their income from work can be used to exchange for materials that can improve their lives, instead of being alone in a vacant house and not having enough to eat. .

Perhaps this is generally the case in extremely sparsely populated civilizations, where people made no small compromises in order to maximize fertility and reproduction.

Huimo people do not conceive in October, their children usually have completed development in seven months, plus the childhood period, the time spent with their mothers is no more than two years.Because Chu Nan was busy moving back, Yuqian lived with her mother until she was over three years old before she was taken away by Chu Nan.Her older brothers and sisters are all old and have their own things to do. They seldom come back, and Chu Nan's paternal love that has nowhere to rest is given to her, but they have raised her to be lively and healthy, and she is not afraid of anything.

The little Yuqian is very understanding when talking about these things, and seems to yearn for a "free" life when she grows up.There is just one key problem that Yu Qian doesn't know about, and that is the situation of the other tribes.

Her body is very likely the result of Yan Chao's intermarriage with someone from the Jiaoxu tribe. According to what Yan Qian said, Yan Chao was pregnant with her for almost nine months before giving birth, which is unreasonable.

The same species will not have such a big change in gestation time because of different performance traits. If it is a physiological problem, in fact, the people of the four tribes are of different species, so it is impossible for Yu Chao to be the No. 1 to break reproductive isolation ?
Perhaps her time here was too short, but she did not see any people from other tribes in this gathering place of the Huimo tribe. In other words, they were not interested in intermarrying with other tribes.

Could it be because of this that Yan Chao was kicked out of the altar by the Jiaoxu tribe?But even so, according to how much the Huimo people valued their offspring, she could definitely come home, so why would she go to the altar alone in that environment?
Yu Di scratched the hair on his arm.

"Are you unhappy?" Yu Qian tilted her head and looked at her, "Why?"

"No." Yu Di rubbed the little girl's head, "I'm thinking about something."

"Ah? What are you thinking about? Let me help you think about it."

"Take me to your school." Yu Di blinked.

Yu Qian looked down: "There is nothing fun in school. Why don't we go to the market? With you together, father should agree."

"Why don't you like going to school?" Yu Di looked at her, "Is the teacher very strict?"

"Hmm...not at all..." Yu Qian struggled, "I don't like to go."

"A classmate bullied you?"

"No! No!" Yu Qian hurriedly waved her hands, "No, it's just that I can't learn well. Those things are so scary."

"...What's the matter?" Yu Di didn't expect her to be afraid because of this.

"No! Those things are scary, and many older children have all kinds of injuries on their bodies."

"Injury? What exactly have you learned?"

"Well, you need to learn how to extract metal from stone, and learn to weave cloth from black oil, and" Yu Qian listed a lot of skills that Yu Di thought adults had to learn.

After listening to her enumeration, Yu Di asked doubtfully, "Then don't you guys learn words or something?"

"Writing?" Yu Qian was a little confused, "That seems to be a lesson for the Jiaoxu tribe."

OK, got it.Yudi sighed.This Jiaoxu tribe really spared no effort to domesticate other people.But this brought her an additional question—under such conditions, how did Yan Chao ascend to the position of chief priest?
These things cannot be inquired from Yuqian.It seems that after Chu Nan finishes her work, she needs to have a detailed talk with him.

At Yu Di's insistence, Yu Qian still took her to school.After visiting around, her comment was, how can this place be called a school?It's basically a training ground.It's no wonder that Xi Qian didn't want to go to school. Children over the age of ten only wore the simplest protection, and they were already standing in front of the huge crucible and began to operate chemicals.

However, the children who were still in physical training were not separated from the older children. She couldn't bear to see those children crying pain from time to time, but they were used to it, let alone the little ones.

The atmosphere between the two children became a little heavy.Yu Qian cherished the time she didn't need to be at school this afternoon, Yu Di nodded, and she took her home.

The children's emotions came and went quickly, and when they got home, Yu Qian took Yu Di back to the room to play.As soon as he entered the door, he saw Denan waiting for them with a frosty face.

"Xi Qian, didn't I tell you not to go out?"

Yu Qian ran over and took Chu Nan's hand: "Father, we just went out to play for a while."

Denan still had a straight face: "What did I say? Did you ignore my words?"

Yu Qian pursed her lips: "Just one click, we didn't make trouble."

"Don't cry!" Chu Nan reprimanded, "Yuqian, how did I teach you? What should I do if I did something wrong?"

Yuqian burst into tears: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I shouldn't go out... I'm sorry father..."

Chu Nan waited for her to cry until she couldn't breathe, and finally softened her attitude, and wiped her tears with her big hands: "Okay, let's not make an example. If you don't obey, you won't be allowed to eat snacks. You go out to play first, I have something to do with my sister." explain."

"Okay..." Yu Qian nodded, and walked out obediently.

"Sorry." Chu Nan had a surprisingly nice attitude towards Yu Di, "I will find two people to protect you in the future."

This was naturally expected.Even if Chu Nan didn't mention it, she would still ask for it.In this backward social system, the probability of accidents is too high.

"Yu Qian said that your tribe doesn't learn writing?" Yu Di asked.

"Yes." Denan nodded, "Each tribe has its own strengths, we don't need those."

Yu Di nodded and looked into his eyes: "Then how did Yu Chao become a priest?"
