Farming in the Primitive Tribe

Chapter 26 We didn’t target you on purpose

After Xiao Yan entered the mountain, Shen Xiaoxiao stayed in the cave to make animal skin clothes for him. Since she had promised him, she would not break her promise, and she had nothing to do now.

For the sake of ventilation, she deliberately left the door open. She noticed that people passed by the cave entrance from time to time and looked in curiously, but she ignored them. After all, she had to let people walk. As long as no one was looking for her, she could always be there. Stay inside.

She spread out the animal skin that Xiao Yan was going to use to make animal skin clothing, marked the length with her hands, and cut it out bit by bit with a bone knife. However, the tool was not easy to use, and it took her most of the day to cut it out. After getting the animal skin she needed, she was about to sew it up with bone needles when she heard some movement at the entrance of the cave. She raised her eyes and saw a bloated middle-aged female standing at the entrance of her cave and looking around.

Shen Xiaoxiao put down the things in her hands, walked out, and asked doubtfully, "What can I do for you?"

"Xiao Yan's female, I am A Shi's female Axiang. They all call me Aunt Axiang. I want to ask you why you put firewood at the entrance of the cave and tied the wood up with something." Axiang He asked curiously, pointing to the door placed at the entrance of the cave.

"This is a door. It can block the wind when closed. If you don't want others to know what you are doing, just close the door. And if the door is closed, others will know that you are not at home, and naturally they will not go in to look for you." Shen Xiaoxiao didn't expect that she came to ask this, but she still said patiently that this was also a good sign for her. They took the initiative to find her, and they didn't use bad words, which proved that they were slowly accepting her.

Axiang's eyes were full of surprise. She kept looking at it and even wanted to touch it, but she held back.

Shen Xiaoxiao couldn't help but raise her lips, "You can touch it, it's okay."

"Okay." Axiang agreed happily, keeping her eyes on it. After a while, she said a little embarrassedly, "Xiao Yan's female, can you teach me how to do it?" Place it at the entrance of the cave, and the wind will not blow. Ran into the hole.

"Of course, my name is Shen Xiaoxiao, you can call me Xiaoxiao."

"Okay, Xiaoxiao." Axiang said kindly, "Xiaoxiao, we didn't target you intentionally. It was because we were harmed by wandering savages and we were afraid that something unfortunate would happen again, so we showed that we were not welcome to you." After a pause, "But I don't think you are that kind of person."

On the contrary, she felt that Xiaoxiao was very smart and knew many things. Take this door for example. They had lived in the cave for so long and never thought of building something to block the wind, but Xiaoxiao made one in no time. The wind can also block other people's sight, no matter what you are doing inside, no one else knows.

Shen Xiaoxiao had a slight smile on her face, "It's okay, I understand everyone's thoughts, and I would do the same thing." Spreading kindness once almost prevented the tribe from surviving the cold winter, which is unacceptable to anyone. Being able to keep her in the tribe is already because they have good intentions, and she can't ask them to have the same attitude towards her and the people in the tribe.

Once bitten by a snake, it is normal for them to be prepared for fear of well ropes.

All she can do is slowly let them accept her existence, the rest is beyond her control.

Axiang laughed immediately, "I said it was understandable to you, but they still didn't believe it." Although she was suspicious of Shen Xiaoxiao at first, nothing she did in the past few days was detrimental to the tribe. , on the contrary, are all beneficial to the tribe.

Although Shen Xiaoxiao didn't know why she took the initiative to spread kindness to her, she didn't want to refuse.

"Aunt Axiang, if you want to do it, you need some sticks and some reeds to cut, which is the grass by the river." Shen Xiaoxiao said calmly.

Ah Xiang was overjoyed and said, "Okay, I'm going to cut some reeds. Can you do it later?"

Shen Xiaoxiao did not refuse her kindness, and even proposed to cut reeds with Axiang. Axiang immediately agreed. Shen Xiaoxiao went into the cave and took the bone knife. After closing the door, she followed Axiang to the river. , the two of them talked from time to time along the way, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

When they got there, Shen Xiaoxiao also cut a lot of reeds. Not only did she help Axiang cut them, but she also cut a lot of them herself. She wanted to use them to make straw sandals. She looked out of place in her own clothes and shoes, but she didn't wear any shoes. I wasn't used to it, so I thought of making a pair of straw sandals so that I could walk with at least one layer between them.

"Xiaoxiao, why are you cutting so much? Do you want to make another door?" Axiang asked with a smile. After a while, the relationship between the two became much closer.

"No, Aunt Axiang, I just want to wear a pair of straw sandals so that my feet won't hurt so much when I step on rocks." Shen Xiaoxiao shook her head. If she hadn't worn her own shoes to go up the mountain, she probably wouldn't have had to walk very far. She couldn't hold on anymore, but with the amount of exercise she was doing, those shoes probably wouldn't last long.

"Straw sandals?" Axiang looked confused.

"It's just worn on your feet, so your feet won't get dirty, and it won't hurt if you step on small stones." After a pause, "You'll know what it is when I make it. If you want to learn how to do it, , I’ll teach you again.”

"Okay." Axiang agreed immediately. What she said was not useless.

When the two returned to the tribe, the eyes of the other people who stayed in the tribe instantly fell on them, seeming to wonder why Axiang and Shen Xiaoxiao came together.

Axiang said loudly, "Aren't you all curious about what is placed at the entrance of Xiao Yan's cave? I know it. It is used to block the wind, and it can be locked up when not in the cave, so that others will not enter the cave at will. "

Others whispered, their words full of curiosity. Some people couldn't help but ask Shen Xiaoxiao if it was really what Axiang said, and why she knew so much and how she knew everything.

Shen Xiaoxiao didn't expect that their attitudes would change so quickly. She couldn't adapt to them for a while. She had a smile on her face and said a few words from time to time.

After dealing with them, Axiang also prepared the firewood needed for making the door. Shen Xiaoxiao taught her to use reeds to twist out a rope and then tie it up, while she tied up her straw sandals on the side.

But you have to beat the reed first, for fear that it will break when weaving later. I didn’t beat the reed before to save trouble, but now you need to be more careful when making shoes.

The others were very curious and helped Axiang to do it together. Soon a door was ready. When they installed it at the entrance of Axiang's cave, they were amazed.

When they had seen enough, they walked over to Shen Xiaoxiao and found two straw sandals plaited with reeds beside her. They asked curiously, "Xiaoxiao, what did you weave?"

"Straw sandals, you won't be afraid of pebbles hitting your feet when you wear them." Shen Xiaoxiao smiled. Seeing that they were still confused, she put down the straw sandals she was still knitting, put on the already made straw sandals, and left. A few steps, "This way the soles of your feet don't come into direct contact with the stones. Even if you step on them, there is still some cushioning and it won't hurt so much."

The others were full of surprise and couldn't help but said, "Can you show us?"

Shen Xiaoxiao took off her straw sandals and gave them to them, "You can try them out."

They were not polite. One of the smaller females put it on and walked for two steps. Her eyes were bright and she said, "It really doesn't hurt my feet." Although the skin of their feet has been worn thick, they will still be hurt if they step on stones. It hurts, but even though I can feel it if I step on a stone while wearing this, it doesn't hurt as much as before.
