"Grandma, are you there? I want to discuss with you about quilts for the cold season." An Ruochu stood in front of Grandma Sen's door and knocked gently.
"An An, come in quickly." Grandma Sen hurried over and opened the door.
"Are we going to start making the quilt?" Grandma Sen was a little excited. She had been thinking about this matter since An Ruchu mentioned it to her before, and now it was finally time to start.
"Yes. Get it done earlier and make preparations early." An Ruochu nodded.
"Then what do you plan to do? I'll cooperate with you." Grandma Sen suppressed her excitement and pulled An Ruchu to sit on the kang.
"The cotton collected now is all unprocessed. We have to pick out the cotton seeds and cotton husks first. Then we sew two animal skins of appropriate sizes into a large piece, and finally add cotton between the two pieces of animal skins." An Ruochu gave Grandma Sen a general idea of the work to be done.
Removing cotton seeds and husks is not an easy task. A large amount of cotton is needed to sew a quilt, so this first task requires a lot of manpower.
It also takes some manpower to sew the animal hides, and the quantity of animal hides will only be more or less.
Generally speaking, making quilts is a task that requires a lot of manpower and resources.
"Let me think about it." After hearing what An Ruochu said, Grandma Sen lowered her head and thought about how to arrange it.
An Ruochu looked at Grandma Sen, not in a hurry, and sat there waiting for her to make a decision.
"Is it difficult to remove cotton husks and seeds?" Granny Sen pondered for a moment before speaking.
"It's not difficult, but it takes time and effort. It's quite boring."
Granny Mori nodded thoughtfully.
"The task of removing cotton husks and seeds will first be undertaken by the cubs and the elderly orcs. Then we will select some females with good skills to sew animal hides."
An Ruochu had no objection to Grandma Sen's arrangement.
However, the cubs and the old orcs were out to husk the cotton, so who would do the task of collecting firewood? In the cold season, a lot of firewood was needed.
"Mother-in-law, what about firewood for the cold season? Should each orc family be responsible for it? Or should the tribe make a unified arrangement?"
An Ruochu still reminded Grandma Sen. After all, heating the kang required a lot of firewood, which could not be supplied by the previous storage.
"Firewood?" A trace of confusion flashed in Granny Sen's eyes when she heard that.
The tribe has stored a lot of firewood now, but is it not enough?
Looking at Grandma Sen's expression, she knew that Grandma Sen had no idea how much firewood was needed to heat the kang.
She said helplessly: "When the cold season comes, every family will need to heat the kang, which requires a lot of firewood, and the kiln will also need a lot of firewood to make pottery. Therefore, we also need to store a lot of firewood."
"So that's how it is. What should we do?" Now Grandma Sen also fell silent.
For the first time, I felt that the tribe was short of manpower.
"Now that the kiln has been completed, the patrol team has started patrolling again. I think it would be better to transfer these people out to collect firewood." An Ruochu thought that the patrol team no longer had any extra tasks and wanted to give the job of collecting firewood to them.
"No."
Granny Sen shook her head and continued, "It seems that the tribe is very safe, but if there is no one stationed in the tribe, once there is an enemy attack or a beast tide, it will cause greater losses."
An Ruochu also fell silent after listening to Grandma Sen's words. She originally thought that the tribe was safe and that the extra patrol team was unnecessary. Now, it seems that this was a well-considered decision.
Now it was difficult to arrange the manpower. The hunting team was necessary, after all, a large amount of skins were needed.
"How about this, first take a few people out of the collection team and have them process the cotton together. When there's not enough cotton, we can go collect more."
"It's the only way. I'll leave this to mother-in-law to arrange."
"Okay. I'll arrange it."
After An Ruochu returned from Grandma Sen, she planned to collect some things. The hemp rope she got from the White Rabbit Tribe was definitely not enough to make a quilt, so she planned to collect some ramie to make some hemp rope for sewing animal skins.
After making up his mind, he carried his small rattan basket and prepared to set off. Just then he saw the collection team walking not far away, so An Ruchu hurriedly followed them.
"Wait for me!" An Ruochu shouted to the team, and quickly quickened his pace to jog to catch up with the team.
Lu Ye, who was walking at the end, heard An Ruochu's voice and quickly asked everyone to stop and wait for her.
An Ruochu finally caught up.
"I also want to go collecting with you." An Ruochu suddenly felt a little embarrassed when looking at the strange female in front of him.
Zihui and Zhuoya, whom she was familiar with, were not here now, and most of the other females looked familiar, but she had only spoken a few words to them.
"Okay, let's go together." Lu Ye took An Ruchu's arm affectionately.
"Then let's go." Ah Xiang was now the leader of the collection. Seeing An Ruochu catching up, she spoke up quickly.
An Ruochu had heard Zhuoya say before that she was the most beautiful female in the tribe. She had only seen her briefly before, but now she was sure of it.
Her long black hair was scattered behind her head, her almond-shaped eyes were full of tenderness, and her plump lips were slightly pursed.
An Ruochu followed the team for a long time and came to a new hill.
Ever since the last accident, the tribe no longer allows females to enter the forest. Now they can only find food on the hills surrounding the tribe.
Fortunately, there are still many hills in the tribe for everyone to collect.
A group of females walked consciously towards the white cotton field in front.
The other row of females scattered and searched for food separately.
There is a lot of cotton on this hill, but not much other supplies.
An Ruochu also followed the collected females and searched everywhere.
[Ding, flax is detected five meters behind the host. ]
Linen works too!
When An Ruochu heard the system's broadcast, he quickly turned around and began to look for Ya Ma's shadow with himself as the center.
Fortunately, there was a lot of flax in this area, and An Ruochu found it without much effort.
She picked up a flax plant and showed it to everyone, and asked them to find this grass together.
After the others identified it clearly, they began to help search nearby.
In the morning, everyone had a good harvest. Although An Ruochu did not find ramie, she found flax. Anyway, both can be used as ropes, so there is no difference between the two.
After returning to the tribe, everyone first put the collected supplies into the cave.
Looking at the cotton stored in the cave, An Ruochu wondered how many quilts he could make.
After lunch, Granny Sen gathered everyone together and assigned them tasks.
"Everyone was very happy to hear that they were going to make quilts. They had heard An Ruochu talk about the benefits of quilts before. Now that they were finally going to start making them, everyone felt that the chances of getting through the cold season were a little better."
"Okay, let's act now." After Granny Sen spoke, everyone quickly dispersed and started to busy themselves with their own affairs.
