"First, roll the cotton into hollow strips." Meng Yuqing grabbed a handful of cotton and rolled it into strips of suitable size, then walked towards the spinning wheel with the cotton.
Pull out a thin line from the cotton strip and hang it on the spinning needle, then try to turn the drum on the spinning wheel.
The machine soon began to hum, turning the cotton hanging on the spinning needle into a thin cotton thread.
"It's done." Meng Yuqing turned the spinning wheel for a while and wove out a short piece of cotton thread. After careful inspection, he found that it was no different from the cotton thread he used before. He smiled and announced to everyone that the spinning was successful.
After the experiment was successful, Xuan led the orcs to make dozens of spinning wheels, and everyone was very interested in spinning.
They sat in a circle in the open space, turning the spinning wheels and chatting about family matters.
Meng Yuqing mingled with them and heard a lot of gossip in the tribe.
For example, which sub-beast is pursuing which orc, which orc is interested in which sub-beast, etc.
Some little orcs are smart and know to be good friends with sub-beasts since childhood, while others are stupid and just think about fighting all day long.
It's as exciting as the chats with the aunties at the village entrance.
Meng Yuqing became so absorbed in listening that he forgot what he was doing with his hands.
The protagonists in these gossips include familiar and unfamiliar people, known and unknown people.
Anyway, Meng Yuqing didn't feel bored at all during the entire spinning process, she just found it exciting.
When enough yarn is spun, it is sent directly to the weaving area, where the sub-beasts who are responsible for weaving will weave cotton cloth.
When the first piece of pure white cotton cloth was woven, all the sub-beasts were very happy.
"It's so beautiful. It's white, pure white, without any other color." Qiu Ye couldn't let go of the soft cotton cloth.
"It's so thin and soft. It must be very comfortable to wear close to your body." Ruya also came over and touched the cotton cloth.
"Haha, we wear this when it's hottest in the summer, and then we wear this inside in spring and autumn. When it's a little hotter, we wear linen clothes outside, and when it's a little colder, we wear animal skins. We can also wear it next to the skin in winter." Roy has already arranged how to wear cotton cloth.
The woven piece of cotton cloth was not small, so they found a piece of clean animal skin and spread it on the bed on one side, then covered it with the cotton cloth and formed a circle, touching the cotton cloth from time to time.
"When there is more cotton cloth, I plan to make a set of inner clothes for my little sub-beast. His skin turns red very easily, so he has to wear the softest kind of animal skin." A sub-beast thought of his cub's skin, and there was some worry in his tone.
He was worried that she would not grow up because she looked so fragile.
"You are young and your skin is tender." Qiu Ye comforted him.
Meng Yuqing also said, "It's not a big problem. At worst, we can just dress him in the most comfortable clothes. We don't have any in Qingshan City."
"Oh, right." Meng Yuqing clapped his hands and continued, "Once the cotton yarn is ready, we also need to spin wool into yarn. Then I'll teach you how to knit sweaters. We can also make blankets, which are very warm. Anyway, we will definitely have enough comfortable clothes for him to wear."
"Yes, don't worry, it's just that his skin turns red easily. When I see him normally, he can still eat, sleep, run and jump. Don't worry too much, just take good care of him." Another sub-beast also spoke to comfort him.
After the cotton cloth was woven for a few days, Meng Yuqing could no longer stay in the textile area. After returning home and having a simple meal in the evening, he collapsed on the bed and counted on his fingers while waiting for Xuan to come back.
Xiao Huang's voice was heard along with the sound of the door being pushed open. Meng Yuqing moved her body and finally gave up the idea of getting out of bed to greet Xuan.
Xuan also knew him very well and walked straight towards the room.
Seeing the animal skin curtain at the door of the room being lifted, Meng Yuqing raised his hand and waved at Xuan.
"Hi~"
Xuanxue followed his movements and tone and said, "Hi~"
"Hahahaha." The room was filled with Meng Yuqing's laughter.
After laughing enough, he looked at Xuan who was still standing at the door of the room, then moved closer to the wall to make some space.
Reaching out and patting the bed, Meng Yuqing called out in an extremely erotic tone, "Little brother~ Come and play~"
Then, he saw Xuan's expression gradually change from a smile to some confusion.
"Little...brother?" Xuan pointed at himself and said slowly.
Meng Yuqing smiled and didn't intend to explain to him. Instead, he continued to pat the bed and said, "Come to sleep~"
Xuan was completely stunned and didn't move for a long time.
Seeing Xuan like this, Meng Yuqing suddenly wanted to sing "Itch" for him.
Just when he was about to sing "Come on~Have fun~", he suddenly remembered that he had important things to do tomorrow and was afraid that he would not be able to have fun tonight.
He held back the song that was about to come out, and he choked on his own saliva and coughed violently a few times.
Hearing Meng Yuqing's cough, Xuan finally came back to his senses. He hurried to the bedside and touched Meng Yuqing's forehead.
"I don't have a fever, so why am I coughing? Are you feeling unwell? Do you want to take some medicine?"
Meng Yuqing waved his hands and coughed, and finally managed to catch his breath before saying, "It's okay, I choked on my saliva."
He watched Xuan's expression change from concern to speechless and then to helplessness.
Finally, Xuan reached out and gently pinched his cheek, saying, "Go to bed early."
After a pause, he leaned closer to Meng Yuqing with deep eyes and a low voice, as if he was suppressing something. "Don't say strange things. I have things to do tomorrow. Be careful not to be able to get up tomorrow."
Hearing Xuan's words, Meng Yuqing immediately restrained himself. He said seriously, "What strange words are you talking about? I was seriously telling you to go to bed. It's you who has impure thoughts and you blame me."
Xuan chuckled softly twice, pinched his chin and said, "What are you thinking about? Didn't I tell you to go to bed? It's obviously you who is thinking about something weird."
He gently rubbed Meng Yuqing's chin with his fingers and continued, "Hmm? If you want to give it a try, it's not impossible. Just sleep on my back tomorrow."
"Impossible, absolutely impossible." Meng Yuqing waved his hand and crawled to the side a distance. Then he looked at Xuan and said, "If I sleep on your back tomorrow, everyone will know that we did something strange the night before we went to do our business."
Xuan didn't approach, but just looked at Meng Yuqing and said slowly, "You've slept on my back more than once or twice. They should be used to it by now."
Meng Yuqing shook his head frantically and refused, "Don't think about it, don't think about it, it's time to go to bed. Early to bed and early to rise makes you healthy."
After saying that, he lay down on the bed, pulled the quilt, and curled up in it.
Seeing that Meng Yuqing had been forced back into the quilt and had calmed down, Xuan smiled silently.
