It is not easy to traverse the wilderness

Chapter 22 Although I have children, I am a man

Song Lai rewrapped the quilt baby, and then shoveled away the wet ground with a wooden shovel. There was suddenly an extra person in the house, and there were obviously not enough pots and pans.The most important thing is the lack of a baby's urinal.Song Lai recalled the pottery he wanted to make some time ago.

When An Ye came back from Aussie, he took a bowl of fish soup from the pot and drank it in two sips.An Ye patted Song Lai's head, "I'm going to sleep. I'm tired after traveling all night."

"What did Oss say." "As long as there is enough food for the baby to stay, it's not a big problem." "It's just that it's a bit troublesome to go to the gathering place during the winter." "Where is the gathering place?" "Wintering place." "What kind of place?" It’s a winter place, can you drink it and let me explain?” “It’s a cave that is very warm in winter, it’s a very huge cave, and it can hold a lot of tribes, but the cave gets hotter as you go in. , only powerful tribes can live in caves." Song Lai's first reaction when he heard this was that it was an active volcano, which was too dangerous. Who knows when the volcano will erupt, and everyone won't play together It's over.

"What will happen if we don't go?" "Will you freeze to death?" Hey!What's the matter with your idiot-like eyes? ! "Why can't you build a strong and warm house by yourself, and then don't go anywhere." "It's impossible to have such a strong house, the snow in winter will drown everything, and when the snow melts in spring, there will be river floods, all All the shacks will be washed away."

Song Lai was a little tangled up again. What An Ye said meant that the winter would be long and the snow would be very heavy, and then there would be floods in the spring. What kind of world did Nima herself come to?Forget about it, just look at the present, go to bed first when you are sleepy, and get up after sleep to make pottery.

Song Lai was sleeping in a daze when he was woken up by the beeping sound. Song Lai rolled his eyes with a headache, reached out to touch the An Ye beside him, who had long since disappeared, so he could only sit up and face the baby on the side of the bed. Touch it, touch it with your hand, you know it's peeing, and when you get up, return the wet one first, then put the baby's bathtub on the firepit, there is still a slight charcoal fire in the firepit, add some dry pee After blowing twice, the flames rose up. After thinking about it, I took the bathtub down again, put the fish soup in the pot on it, boiled it, and then put the bathtub on. So An Ye put clean water in and just waited for it to boil.

"Hmm~" Pfft~ Song Lai had another bad feeling, and looked back on the bed, the baby just let go of his frown.A faint stench came, it couldn't be what I thought it would be.It won't be what I thought.Song Lai walked towards the baby hesitantly, opened the baby that had just been wrapped, and a stench rushed towards him. "Hey~!" Song Lai sighed, then held his breath, took out the pulled diaper, and threw it away if he wanted to, it's only two yuan, don't throw it away, it's really disgusting.

It was agreed to travel through Shuangwenna, this shit is too cheating, don't say it, this is really cheating.Song Lai stretched out his hand long, and at the same time inserted the clean side into the baby's little butt. There was really good news, the baby didn't have diarrhea, and the poop looked quite normal. It might take a while. hello.

The baby was covered with the last piece of fabric from a bathrobe, and then covered with a piece of animal skin.Put the removed diapers outside the door.It happened that the water in the stone pot was boiling, and the fish soup was cold.Song Lai washed his hands, and then used his usual bathrobe to wipe his baby's butt after wetting it.

Put the fish soup into the clam shell bowl and feed the baby fish soup with a small wooden spoon.She obviously liked the soup made of lotus seeds and fish meat, and she happily ate it bite by bite.I fed a little more than in the morning, and then put the child in my arms and patted it gently. After a while, the child fell asleep.

Watching the child fall asleep, I contributed the largest clam shell that I used to make a basin. I washed out the wet bathrobe cloth first, and then used the remaining water to soak the one stained with poop.Song Lai took the two diapers back to the shack and put them on the edge of the firepit to bake after rinsing a lot. Who knows when this little ancestor will urinate again. Our conditions are difficult, but we only have two diapers.

After tidying up, Song Lai looked at the lotus root and lotus seeds he had brought back, intending to get some lotus root starch to eat, but there was really a lack of things to put it in, so let's go get pottery first.

He picked up the baby and planned to take it by himself, but it was not very convenient to do it no matter what, so he had to send the baby to Oss.

I feel that making pottery should not be too difficult. Thinking back to the mug I made for my sister, isn’t it very simple? Information from the museum.Go out of the camp and walk to the lower reaches of the river, looking for those fine and viscous sediments.Fortunately, this kind of mud is common in places where the river is slow, so Song Lai made some and put it in a wicker basket before walking back.Although the baby has only been here for one day, I am really worried about putting him in someone else's place.

Put the recovered mud outside the hut, and then immediately go to Oss to pick up the baby.Walking to the door of Oss, he heard the familiar crying sound inside, and hurried in, only to see Oss looking at the frowning child on the bed, "What's the matter?" "I don't know what she's crying for , can this child live?" "Of course." I reached out to pick up the child, and even touched the little butt and it didn't get wet. Could it be that I'm hungry, but it hasn't been long since I just ate.

As soon as the child arrived in Song Lai's arms, he groaned twice in a symbolic sense of grievance, and then leaned his head on Song Lai's shoulder, squinting his eyes and going to sleep.Song Lai looked back at her like this, and couldn't help but smile, did he feel wronged and put her in someone else's house?After thanking Oss with the baby in his arms, Song Lai went home.

An Ye didn't know what to do, he didn't sleep all night, why didn't he take a rest.Really sad.

Put the child on the bed, wrap it in animal skins, and start tinkering with your own pottery at the door, without even a turntable, so you can't expect to pull blanks or anything.Knead the mud into a ball, and then beat it repeatedly to pick out the impurities such as stones and grass inside.Knead them into long and thin strips as thick as your fingertips until they can be shaped, and then coil them up like a mosquito coil, forming a 20-centimeter pan. Use wood chips to smooth out the edges and corners inside and outside .After getting this, I will make a pot.Set the pan aside to dry in the shade before continuing.

Song Lai was working hard when An Ye came back with a piece of meat.It's time to go hunting.Song Lai's complexion suddenly became a little bad.

"You went hunting without taking a break. It's very dangerous. If something happens to you, the baby and I won't be able to survive." Song Lai is still very self-aware about supporting himself, even though he found this food today. , To make a wicker basket or something tomorrow, and even now he is still tinkering with pottery, but it is completely impossible for him to integrate himself into the tribe and go hunting.

An Ye was a little stunned when he heard Song Lai's words, he smiled and patted Song Lai's head, "Got it" looked at the things in Song Lai's hand, "What are you doing?" "There are not enough bowls at home." , let me get some pottery." "Pottery?" "Well, I don't think stone tools are so bulky, and they are easier and more convenient than stone tools. You go to sleep and eat the fish soup in the pot. It's not very fresh after a day. Make new ones for the baby."

An Ye nodded and entered the shack.After a while, when he came out to pour the water out of the pot, he saw Song Lai throwing mud clods there, so he walked over curiously, and then followed suit. Well, in fact, everyone has the urge to play with mud.Following Song Lai's example, An Ye also made several bowls and pots.There was no more mud until I got it back.The two men washed their hands and walked into the shack.

Song Lai started to prepare dinner, while An Ye obediently lay down on the bed to catch up on sleep.

Dinner is stewed meat with lotus root. After a pot of meat was stewed, it was served with river mussels, and then he hurriedly made fish soup for the baby. When picking up the fish, Song Lai suddenly remembered the emergency sweet root on the road, so he boiled it I put a few in the water, and after cleaning up, I found that the sweet root in the pot was gone. I replaced it with a pot of viscous liquid. I dug a little with a wooden spoon and let it cool down. Eh, sweet, syrup?Pour out all the liquid and put it aside, reboil the water and make fish soup. It seems that the sweet root can be made into sugar.It's just that I am from the Northeast, so I really don't have much favor for Tang.But you can give the baby some sugar water or something.

Hey, the baby was crying again. Song Lai hurriedly picked her up, but Anye still woke up. Watching Song Lai skillfully open the animal skin that wrapped the baby, then changed the diaper and wrapped it up again. Ye waved at Song Lai, Song Lai settled down the baby and walked into him in doubt, An Ye stretched out his hand and pulled Song Lai's pants, looked down, "It's a boy." "Ann, what do you mean!" Song Lai immediately frowned. up. "I won't change diapers anymore, my lord, you have to do it, hmph" After speaking, he pushed An Ye, but unfortunately he didn't.

After changing hands, I rushed to the lotus root stew that was served. I filled a bowl full and started to eat. Humph, I ate it all and I won’t give it to you. Let’s see how you grow. I’m still young, but I can still grow Well, you actually think that I am a girl, I am angry.

Song Lai, who was angry, ended up eating too much for the night.So the baby was hungry and peed in the middle of the night because he made it himself, Song Lai felt very sad.

During the days of waiting for the pottery to dry in the shade, Song Lai also went to pick up a lot of branches and wood to prepare for firing the pottery.And the baby is also very promising without any problems, and sleeps well when he is full. The only downside is that Song Lai and An Ye always have someone by their side, otherwise they will cry, probably from memory Still afraid of being left behind.In the end, Song Lai had no choice but to make a wicker basket for his back, and then wrapped the baby in animal skin and put it in.Take it wherever you go.
