Chapter 20 Visiting the New Home



After Jiang Yanyue packed the meat, she took out all the animal skins that could be used, used some as beds, and some as carpets, and asked Wuchen to take them over when he was free.

Wu Chen stopped what he was doing, peeled a bowl of nuts for Jiang Yanyue, letting her eat them for fun, and then continued to weave a rattan basket for storage.

Because it is used to make furniture, the dust-free weave is large and tight.

Jiang Yanyue watched Wu Chen's fingers flying, and an exquisite and sturdy rattan basket quickly took shape. He even designed a pattern on the rattan basket.

Jiang Yanyue felt that if Wu Chen lived in modern times, he would at least be an inheritor of intangible cultural heritage.

"Put it away first, and then use some animal sinew to secure the lid."

While Jiang Yanyue's thoughts were drifting away, Wu Chen had already finished making a frame.

"You have such a dexterous hand!" Jiang Yanyue praised sincerely, remembering that when she was traveling, she fell in love with a bamboo basket in an intangible cultural heritage store and the owner asked for 30,000 yuan for it.

Jiang Yanyue was so scared that she turned around and ran away.

Jiang Yanyue thought that this basket was very beautiful and practical, and most importantly, it was available for free.

Wu Chen's face remained calm, but the tips of his ears turned red due to Jiang Yanyue's praise. "Hey, it's nothing."

It's not good for the little female at home to be too innocent and cute. She looked at him with stars in her eyes. God knows how much effort it took for him to control himself from pulling her into his arms and kissing her.

Making tools is an essential skill for survival. Every male knows how to do it. The only difference is that each male uses different techniques. It is not something to be boasted about at all.

Wu Chen observed that Jiang Yanyue liked exquisite and beautiful things, so he catered to her taste and made things as exquisite and beautiful as possible. If it could be carved, he would carve it, and if it couldn't be carved, the details had to be impeccable.

Sure enough, it was the right thing to do. Her admiring and appreciative look made him go crazy with joy.

"Want to go see our new home? I've almost finished the big furniture. We just need to add some small things and it will be ready to live in."

"Okay, I've been listening to you talk about it, but I haven't seen it yet." Jiang Yanyue became excited. Finally, she finally had a home in this beast world.

In fact, the day after Jiang Yanyue woke up, Wu Chen went to find Chief Carlo and marked out an area to build a house.

Just like Wu Chen said, Carlo was eager for a strong man like Wu Chen to settle down in the tribe, especially since Jiang Yanyue was still a young female, and who knew how many strong men she would bring to the tribe.

Carlo is very fond of Jiang Yanyue. Her first partner is of Wuchen's level, and it is impossible for her to find someone weaker than Wuchen in the future.

Therefore, everything given to Jiang Yanyue was of the highest standard. When the land was divided, she was directly given a hill.

Carlo was not worried at all that Wu Chen would be unwilling. It was impossible for a female to have only one partner. Even if the female herself was willing, the males would not agree.

What's more, Wuchen is a snake beast. What will happen to Jiang Yanyue when he hibernates? What if there are males with bad intentions? What if something happens, such as falling into the water or getting hurt?

These are all real tragedies that have happened. It is because there are so many tragedies that the rule of requiring females to find multiple partners has gradually been formed.

Jiang Yanyue and her family's house is a little distance away from the gathering place of the tribe. Because the terrain is high, they can basically see the entire tribe.

Jiang Yanyue stood in the yard in front of the house, feeling as if the sky was high and the clouds were vast, and all the mountains looked small.

"The edge is bare like this, it's a bit dangerous. How about I build a stone fence around it?"

"No, building a wall would ruin the feeling. The yard is so big, and I won't go to the edge to look for excitement."

The yard in front of the house is more than 200 square meters. The ground has been tidied and is generally flat. There is also a big tree in front of the right side of the house that can be hugged by two or three people. However, all the leaves have fallen off and it looks bare.

Jiang Yanyue was very satisfied with this yard alone, and enthusiastically pulled Wu Chen to see the wooden house.

The wooden house has two floors, and the bottom is raised so it doesn't directly touch the ground. When Jiang Yanyue stepped on it, she discovered something special about it.

"Is the floor heated?"

Wu Chen took Jiang Yanyue's hand and placed it on the wall. The wall was also hot. "This kind of wood called Huaiyang wood is resistant to burning and corrosion, and it will slowly release the heat it absorbs. You won't feel cold if you live in it."

"It's great." Jiang Yanyue walked around. The house was made of pure wood, and the whole house was filled with a faint wood fragrance. The beams were staggered in height, and the ceilings were very high, giving it a kind of ancient Chinese beauty.

Jiang Yanyue took out all the furniture made by Wu Chen and placed them in place. With just a little arrangement, the feeling of home gradually emerged.

Behind the main room is the kitchen, a square wood-burning stove built with colorful pebbles and yellow mud, with a chimney on top and a hole for adding firewood below.

"You actually managed to make it!" Jiang Yanyue touched the stove. The height was just right, making it very convenient for cooking.

Jiang Yanyue only told Wuchen the general idea. After all, Jiang Yanyue herself had never seen what a rural earthen stove looked like, and didn't know how to make it specifically.

"It took a few tries to get it right. The area where the wood is burned and the area where the ash is discharged should be separated. The smoke frame should be placed in the chimney to prevent the smell of food from wafting around. Yanyan's idea is very good."

After looking at the kitchen, Jiang Yanyue and Wu Chen went upstairs hand in hand. The room upstairs was Jiang Yanyue's bedroom. The furniture inside was simple yet exquisite.

There is a dressing table under the window, a large cabinet with double doors in the corner, a large carved bed next to it, and a three-layer storage rack opposite the dressing table.

"This... was all done by you?" Jiang Yanyue sat down on the edge of the bed, stroking the smoothly polished edge of the bed with her hand. There were also exquisite carvings on the side panels. Jiang Yanyue felt like she had traveled through time again.

"It's not easy to fall off a bed like this. It's made of several parts, so it's not that difficult."

"Yeah, I like it very much." Jiang Yanyue ordered a latex mattress and took out animal skin to spread it out. It was soft when she lay on it, and it had a certain degree of support, but Jiang Yanyue always felt that something was missing.

Looking at the bare bunk bed, Jiang Yanyue had an idea and quickly ordered a pair of bed curtains from the mall and asked Wuchen to help hang them up.

The champagne-colored bed curtains paired with the antique wooden canopy bed instantly create just the right look.

Jiang Yanyue nodded, put her bottles and jars on the dressing table, and put the animal skin clothes in the closet, and the room instantly became lively.

"Let's move in today, okay?" Jiang Yanyue was a little excited. Living in a house is better than a cave. The lighting and comfort are incomparable.

What's more, the house always has a fresh and pleasant wood scent, unlike modern houses that have formaldehyde. The house is also warm, and Jiang Yanyue really likes it.

"But I haven't prepared the daily necessities like tableware, kitchen utensils, and buckets yet."

Jiang Yanyue said proudly: "It's okay, I have them all!"
