Chapter 191 Tanning Fur (2)

Xia Tian could tell that Si Ye was afraid that she would dislike this strange beast because it had too much fur and too little meat. A thin horse has long fur, and everyone hopes that the prey they bring back will contain only edible meat.

She shook her head. "You misunderstood. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with you bringing this back. I was just thinking that the fur of this exotic animal is very suitable for making fur. Where did you find it? We can stock up some."

The last month of the hot season requires preparations for harvesting, chopping firewood, and storing vegetables. In addition, the tanning of fur also takes a certain amount of time. It will be very rushed to do it then. It is definitely better to start as early as possible, which will also give her some time for trial and error.

Si Ye didn't expect that Xia Tian asked this question, and he didn't expect that she could tan leather.

He also considered the issue of stockpiling furs when the cold season comes. Because he wanted to give the girl the best, he planned to take her to the market to choose. He never thought that Xia Tian would actually make it herself.

"If you want fur, I can take you to the market later to pick some." Si Ye expressed his intention. "Tanning fur is very hard work, and we have to process it ourselves. Do you really want to do it yourself?"

Rather than worrying that she wouldn't do well, he was more worried that she would suffer.

Not only do they handle daily household chores, but even necessities like animal skins have to be made and processed by the females themselves...

Xia Tian was used to being frugal and didn't mind the hard work. "It's okay, it's not hard. It's more convenient for us to do it ourselves, and we don't have to trade things with others. I'm going to use it mainly, and the winter season is coming soon, so it's better for us to be frugal and not waste your time."

Si Ye stopped insisting and nodded, "Okay, I'll peel the skin off and go process the meat first, and then I'll give it to you later."

Xia Tian responded, and while he was dealing with the strange beast, she quickly sharpened the hoe in her hand into a rough shape, then walked over and picked up the bloody animal skin thrown aside.

When unfolded, it is about the size of a blanket. Even though it will shrink a bit after tanning, it is still suitable for laying on the bed or making into clothes.

Si Ye had already processed the meat with salt, cut it into pieces according to her girlish habit and hung it on a rack to dry. She walked to the place where she had just sharpened the hoe, half squatted down, and tacitly picked up the semi-finished product and began to study it, intending to continue.

"I've already processed the beast meat. What is this thing? What are you going to do with it?"

Xia Tian tilted her head and replied, "I'm going to make a hoeing tool. I'll tell you the details later. I've already made the general shape. You just need to sharpen that side according to this shape."

Si Ye looked at the unfinished product in his hand for a while, then picked up two other similar stones on the ground and asked, "Do you want to process this one too?"

He couldn't help but wonder, what kind of hoeing tool has three heads?

However, Si Ye knew that girls always had all kinds of strange ideas. He just needed to prepare the materials first, and he could explain the rest after she was done.

Xia Tian saw Si Ye silently grinding the stone over there and using a stone knife to clean the animal hide first.

[The old driver made me laugh to death, he works silently but has a keen eye for things, I really don’t believe he has a big background hahahaha]

[Wow, this is amazing! Can this young lady even make her own fur? She's got a real talent!!!]

[But I'm curious, what materials are available now? What can be used to make it?]

[The blood is really bloody. Nowadays, all kinds of fur are made of bionic fur. I have never seen such a primitive treatment method.]

I haven't been recommended much recently, but suddenly I have a lot of new readers following me hahaha. And there are also old readers who have always supported me when my performance was low, such as Yangyang who always votes 14 times every morning and Liza who often leaves comments... Thank you, Nimeng!!!
