Farming in the Primitive Tribe

"Did you eat it at this time too?" Shen Xiaoxiao stared directly at the persimmon tree. It looked ripe, how could it be astringent.

"I forgot, but it was about this time." Xiao Yan didn't remember when it was, but the color of the fruit was similar to this, so it was probably around this time.

Shen Xiaoxiao knew it in her heart. It was probably that what they ate was undercooked, so they didn't think it tasted good. "I want to eat it." She pointed at the persimmons on top and said. Xiao Yan looked at her doubtfully, "It doesn't taste good." , if you want to eat fruit, I will find others for you."

"This is edible, believe me. The ones you ate before may have been undercooked, so they were astringent." Shen Xiaoxiao said firmly. Xiao Yan looked confused, but finally climbed up the tree. Shen Xiaoxiao She snickered in her heart and felt more satisfied with him. Although he didn't understand, he would still believe her and follow her advice.

"Xiao Yan, look for the yellow ones." If he still can't eat them after picking them, he probably won't believe it next time she says it's edible.

This persimmon tree is ten meters high according to visual inspection, and it is covered with yellow persimmons.

Xiao Yan directly broke off two branches with several persimmons hanging on them, threw them on the ground, and then jumped down with his hands swinging from the branches. Shen Xiaoxiao was frightened when he saw it. Although Xiao Yan was more than 1.8 meters tall, his hands were hanging on The branch was more than two meters high, but the branch he was on was estimated to be about four meters wide. Even if he fell, it would still hurt even if he wasn't injured. As he landed safely, Shen Xiaoxiao's heart returned to his heart.

"Are you okay? Did you fall somewhere?" Shen Xiaoxiao stepped forward and asked with concern, looking him up and down. Xiao Yan grinned, "It's okay. Anyone taller than this can also jump over. Xiaoxiao, don't worry."

Shen Xiaoxiao frowned and said, "Don't do this next time. It's so dangerous. What if something happens?" And it's still in the mountains. If you really fall down, you don't know what will happen. Woolen cloth.

Xiao Yan wanted to say something more, but when he saw Shen Xiaoxiao's nervous look, he swallowed the words he was about to blurt out, "Okay." Since Xiaoxiao didn't like it, then he just didn't do it.

Shen Xiaoxiao was worried and asked him to turn around to make sure everything was fine. She was completely relieved. Then her eyes fell on the persimmons on the ground. She picked them up happily and looked at them carefully to make sure that she really had not admitted her mistake. A smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. Even the corners of his eyebrows are curved.

"It's really a persimmon, it's edible." Shen Xiaoxiao's voice was filled with excitement. She thought it was difficult to eat fruit in this world, but she didn't expect that she could eat it so quickly, and it was all natural. "Give me the bones." Give me the knife." He said and stretched out his hand towards Xiao Yan. After getting the bone knife, he cut a persimmon into four pieces. "Here, don't eat the skin, eat it like this." He said and bit it as if eating an orange. I took a sip and then narrowed my eyes in enjoyment. It was indeed delicious.

Xiao Yan also imitated Shen Xiaoxiao and took a tentative bite. Then his eyes lit up. It was really not astringent. It was not as astringent as what he had eaten before. He wanted to eat the rest even with the skin. , Shen Xiaoxiao quickly stopped him, "You can't eat the skin, it will taste astringent."

Then he gave him the two remaining petals on his hand, "You used to feel astringent when you ate them. Maybe it was because they were not yet ripe and peeled, so you felt astringent. But when the persimmons are ripe, they still taste good, and they are also astringent. It can be dried into persimmons, which can be eaten even in winter, and the taste of persimmons is somewhat different from that of persimmons.”

She picked another red persimmon from a branch. Maybe it was blocked by a branch when she threw it down. This ripe one was not smashed, but it didn't look good.

Shen Xiaoxiao didn't care, she divided it into two halves and gave one half to Xiao Yan, "This one is edible too. You can't make persimmons if it's soft, and you have to eat it as soon as possible, otherwise it will spoil. "

Xiao Yan took a bite without any doubt, and a sweet taste spread on his tongue. Surprise burst out in his eyes. It turned out that the astringent fruit they disliked was so delicious. He picked more and gave it to Xiaoxiao to eat, thinking about it. Wanting to climb up again, "What are you doing?"

"Pick more and bring them back. You can eat them when I go hunting." Xiao Yan said without thinking. He couldn't stay with Xiaoxiao all the time. He had to go hunting and collect food to save for the winter. Otherwise, he would Xiaoxiao will starve to death if she doesn't have anything to eat.

Otherwise, he would risk going into the mountains. Xiaoxiao would definitely be worried by then, and if something happened to him, Xiaoxiao would be bullied. He wanted to see Xiaoxiao happy every day.

"No, these are enough. If you pick too much, you won't be able to put it away anymore, and you can't eat too much of it. Just pick it when you want to eat it." Shen Xiaoxiao said with a smile. Anyway, the trees are here, so I'm still afraid of it. Could you run away? And since no one was eating here, she didn't have to worry about anyone snatching it from her.

Xiao Yan frowned slightly, thinking about what she said, and immediately said, "Pick them back to make persimmons." This way Xiaoxiao can have some snacks to eat in winter.

"There is no problem in making persimmons. The key is that there is no pot." There is a process in making persimmons that requires hot water, otherwise it will become moldy. She heard others say that you can just peel them and dry them, but she has tried it several times. It will become moldy even in the bright sun, but it will not become moldy if it has been scalded.

So even if she wants to do it now, she can't do it. She doesn't even have the tools, so what can she do with it?

"Pot?" He had heard Xiaoxiao say it before, but had never seen it before.

"Yes, it's a pot used to cook food. With a pot, there are many more ways to eat the food, and you can also cook some vegetables." Although no one grows vegetables now, there must be wild vegetables, but there are no She couldn't eat the wild vegetables in the pot even if she wanted to. If she roasted them over the fire, they would burn in a short time. After all, there was no oil to brush on them now.

Shen Xiaoxiao was wondering if she could burn a few pots and bowls for use. After all, eating meat all the time was not enough, and drinking a bowl of hot soup in winter made her feel better.

And she happens to be good at making pottery, which requires some firewood, but the most indispensable thing in the mountains is firewood.

It's amazing to say that three years ago she somehow became very interested in these things, especially some old crafts, such as pottery making, weaving, and even the loom. She knows how to make them all, including smelting iron, making salt and making soap... Although she has always been interested in these things, she became particularly interested in them three years ago, and even went to some old villages to learn these crafts from the elderly.

Sometimes I really feel the magic of fate. If she hadn't learned these skills, would she have been blind when she passed by?

Sometimes she even wonders if she knew she was going to travel through time, so she learned these things.

Fortunately, she went out of her way to learn it, otherwise she would really have to live this kind of half-clothed life. With these skills, she can slowly change her life. Although it is not as convenient as modern times, at least she can have enough food. Dress warmly.
