"Okay, Xiaoqiu, just tell me what to do." Ling Yun said.

Before they could say a few words, someone came over to get the soap.

Ling Yun had no choice but to get off the kang reluctantly, took out two bars of soap, and repeatedly told them to go back and try them on themselves first, and then make large quantities for females to use after confirming that it was safe.

Song Mu brought over some meat and a small bowl of mashed potatoes.

He ate a few mouthfuls on the edge of the kang to fill his stomach: "Xiaoqiu, I'm going out. Ling Yun, take good care of Xiaoqiu."

Lin Qiu reached out and grabbed Song Mu: "Song Mu, the matter of the Rabbit Tribe has been completely resolved. I think your knot in your heart can be untied as well."

"It's been resolved long ago," Song Mu took Lin Qiu's hand and kissed the back of her fingers. "I remember everything you said to me. I won't love you out of guilt."

Lin Qiu was somewhat moved. He stood up and knelt on the edge of the kang, hugged him, and rubbed the back of Song Mu's head: "You are so good."

Song Mu pulled Lin Qiu closer to her: "Xiao Qiu, I don't want to go out when you're like this."

"Then let's take a day off today, it's okay." Lin Qiu looked up at Song Mu. From Song Mu's perspective, he saw two dark, watery eyes staring at him.

He heard something in his head snap, and he lowered his head and gently kissed Lin Qiu's eyes: "If I work one more day, you can wear linen sooner. Now we have reached the weaving stage, and everything is going well. I will work hard on weaving for a few days, and then I can bring the linen back to make clothes for you."

Song Mu was reluctant, but still let Lin Qiu go.

Lin Qiu held his face again and kissed him as a reward.

"Okay, but don't be too tired and come back early."

"Um."

After saying goodbye to Lin Qiu reluctantly, Song Mu left the house.

He had just walked a short distance when he saw Qing Yuan standing there looking into the distance in the direction of their home.

Even though their house is now surrounded by a high wall and Qingyuan can't see anything, Songmu is very unhappy about being watched by others at his home, feeling like a prey.

Qing Yuan saw Song Mu from afar: "Song Mu, is Lin Qiu awake now? The weather is nice today, does she want to come out and play?"

Qing Yuan rested for the whole night and slept away all the fatigue in his body.

He wanted to come and see Lin Qiu early in the morning, but then he felt a little guilty about waking Lin Qiu up last time, so he waited quietly near their house.

Before Song Mu spoke, she frowned. "Hasn't she already made it very clear? Don't bother her anymore. We've been very busy lately. I have to go out to work, and Ling Yun has a lot of things to do at home. Xiao Qiu won't be coming out."

Song Mu finished speaking and started to leave. Qing Yuan followed him. "Look, you two are so busy that you can't take care of Lin Qiu. Two men are not enough for one female. You should accept me. My strength is not inferior to yours. Wouldn't it be good to have one more person to take care of her?"

If Lin Qiu really wanted to go out, Ling Yun and Song Mu would make time to accompany her no matter what.

Song Mu was too lazy to explain: "Don't tell me this, you should tell Xiao Qiu."

"You won't let me see Xiao Qiu at all...Where are you going?"

Qing Yuan saw that Song Mu's pace was getting faster and faster, so he quickly caught up and asked.

"This is a secret of our tribe. I'm sorry I can't tell you. Even the young, unmarried males in our tribe don't know about it, so please understand."

After saying this, Song Mu pushed Qing Yuan away. He wanted to add something to ask him not to keep staring at their house, but then he thought about it and went to Teng Ning before going to the collective yard to ask him to quickly arrange some work for Qing Yuan. Since he was not leaving the tribe, he should not be idle.

Teng Ning felt a little sorry for Qing Yuan: "I think Qing Yuan is a good guy. Isn't it a good thing to have one more person to take care of Lin Qiu?"

The two people's almost identical statements made it difficult for Song Mu not to suspect that they were in collusion.

"This is Xiaoqiu's decision. There's no point in telling me."

"Oh, okay..."

"Anyway, just give him something to do. I think you can understand that no one wants an outsider male watching over their territory all day long."

"That's no problem. Just let him work with me," Teng Ning said, holding onto Song Mu as she was about to leave. "Do you want to see your mother?"

When Yan Ti was mentioned, Song Mu's eyebrows raised again: "No need."

"Ever since Wu Chuan and Rong Qian's accident, your mother has been unhappy. The females can't help but talk about her behind her back, and she has become less willing to go out. I was thinking, could you go and comfort her?"

"Why didn't you tell Ling Yun?" Song Mu looked at Teng Ning.

No matter what, Ling Yun and Teng Ning move around more frequently.

Teng Ning hesitated. Why didn't he tell Ling Yun? But Ling Yun said that he only cared about the affairs of Lin Qiu, a female. This was said politely, but it also meant that he wanted to draw a clear line between himself and his mother, Yan Ti.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have come to find Song Mu.

But Song Mu's answer was probably not much different from Ling Yun's, so Teng Ning sighed heavily.

What can be done? No matter what, it was Yan Ti who was wronged by the two children first, causing them to lose their father when they were young. No matter what she does later, it cannot be made up for it.

"I understand what you mean. Go ahead and do your work. I'll take care of Qing Yuan's affairs."

Song Mu turned and left without saying anything. He was not close to his mother to begin with. When Teng Ning and Yan Ti became a couple, the two brothers were already able to work together to catch some small prey near the tribe. So even though they were the males of the family, Teng Ning had never taken them with him, so Teng Ning had no face in front of them.

Come to think of it, it was Wu Chuan who took care of their food for a while when they were young.

Thinking back to the hard days of his childhood, Song Mu's heart sank and he felt depressed.

Fortunately, he was going out instead of going home, otherwise Xiaoqiu would definitely notice it and would worry about him again.

After Song Mu left, Lin Qiu and Ling Yun had dinner and then took the baby to the yard to bask in the sun.

Ling Yun was watering the fields outside the yard, and Lin Qiu took advantage of this opportunity to draw a diagram of the wooden steps on a bamboo slip.

There was a two-step stone staircase in front of their main house, and the watchtower also had steps, so Ling Yun had some concept of stairs.

However, for safety reasons, Lin Qiu still had to add two boards next to the wooden steps to prevent the kid from falling directly from the edge when running up and down.

If she hadn't said it, Ling Yun would never have considered it, and might even have said something like "falling down will make you tougher."

She also plans to build a slide next to the wooden steps so that they can slide down and play.

Anyway, since you are doing it, make a solid and complete one that can be used all the time.
