Chapter 7 Basket Weaving
Tu Rongrong broke off a few vines, found some flexible shrubs, pulled off the leaves and some small branches, and started weaving baskets.
Because it was a basket for two-year-old Tu Yuanyuan, Tu Rongrong didn't make a very large one. First, she used two thick branches to form a cross, and then wrapped vines and shrub branches layer by layer to weave the bottom of the basket.
While weaving a basket, Tu Rongrong looked at the bored Tu Yuanyuan and said, "Yuanyuan, are you bored? Do you want to go play by yourself?"
Tu Yuanyuan propped up her chin and watched her sister weaving a basket. After hearing her sister's words, she shook her head and said, "No, I'll look at you."
Tu Yuanyuan doesn't want to be far away from her sister. She wants to be with her sister all the time. If Tu Rongrong hadn't been busy chopping trees and was a little tired and couldn't get up early to take care of her these days, Tu Yuanyuan would have wanted to sleep with her sister.
After all, if she slept with her sister, her sister would not be awake yet when she woke up in the morning, and Tu Che would not be able to go into Tu Rongrong's room, who had grown up, to wake up Tu Yuanyuan, right?
Tu Rongrong also knew that her sister was clinging to her, and she also knew that it was because the child felt insecure, so she indulged her.
"Don't just sit here and stare at me. Go pick some flowers for me, okay?" Tu Rongrong patted her sister's head and said, "Go pick some beautiful flowers for me, okay?"
Tu Yuanyuan's eyes lit up after hearing her sister's words. She looked at her sister expectantly and said, "Sister, do you want flowers?"
"Yes, Yuanyuan, can you pick it for your sister?" Tu Rongrong asked with a smile.
"Okay, okay, Yuanyuan will pick them for sister." Tu Yuanyuan nodded happily.
Tu Rongrong looked at the cute little girl's excited look and smiled. He pinched her chubby face and took out a small medicine bag from his pocket - actually it was from his pocket, because he had traveled through time and space, and he was a rabbit spirit. Tu Rongrong also had a large space, but it could only hold dead objects. Living people, animals, and plants with soil and growing well could not be put in it - and hung it around Tu Yuanyuan's neck.
Tu Rongrong was also worried that there might be some poisonous insects or something like that on this primitive planet, so she gave her sister this mosquito repellent bag. No matter it was a poisonous insect or a poisonous creature, even small animals hated the smell of this bag and would run away when they smelled it.
"Put this thing on, and then you can go pick flowers for your sister. Our Yuanyuan is so well-behaved, isn't she?" Tu Rongrong said with a smile.
"Yeah." Tu Yuanyuan nodded obediently, then got up and skipped to pick flowers.
Tu Rongrong felt relieved when she saw her sister's happy figure. Children are more cute when they are lively. Although Tu Yuanyuan's well-behaved appearance was likable, it also made people feel distressed.
If children are not feeling unwell or in a bad mood, they will not be quiet all the time and will not like to run and jump.
Tu Rongrong watched her sister picking flowers within her sight while she worked diligently on weaving a basket. Because it was a basket for a two-year-old girl, the basket wasn't very big. It was round, with a diameter of less than 20 centimeters and a height of about the same, so it was easy for the child to carry.
After Tu Rongrong finished weaving the small basket, she put it aside and gave it to Tu Yuanyuan when she came back. She made a small basket for her sister and she also made a small basket for herself so that she could pick mushrooms later.
Tu Rongrong found some thicker branches, and then used soft vines and shrub branches to weave a slightly larger basket, about the size that could hold two basketballs.
By the time Tu Rongrong was almost done, Tu Yuanyuan had already returned to her with a bunch of flowers.
"Sister, sister, look at the flowers Yuanyuan picked." Tu Yuanyuan said excitedly with a blushing face. Of course, her face was not only red because of excitement, but also because she ran around and exercised a lot.
"Our Yuanyuan is so obedient, so well-behaved, and so capable." Tu Rongrong praised with a smile. Tu Yuanyuan became even more excited after hearing her sister's praise, and she also laughed.
Tu Rongrong stopped weaving the basket, took the flowers her sister had picked and stood up. Tu Rongrong also made a wreath for Tu Yuanyuan, and after putting it on, the cute baby became even cuter.
"Wow, our Yuanyuan is so cute. Yuanyuan, do you like this wreath your sister made for you?" Looking at the little cutie wearing the wreath, Tu Rongrong praised sincerely, oh, her sister is really super cute.
"Yeah, I like it." Tu Yuanyuan nodded happily.
"Be good, Yuanyuan, take a rest. When your sister finishes making the basket, come with her to pick mushrooms." Tu Rongrong couldn't help but come over and kiss her sister's chubby face, and rubbed her face.
"Yes." Tu Yuanyuan nodded. Tu Rongrong asked her to sit down and handed her the basket she had just woven. "This is the little basket I woven for you. Do you like it?"
The basket woven by Tu Rongrong is very small and cute. There are some cute patterns on the basket. It is obviously made for children. Tu Yuanyuan likes it very much and won't let go after holding it.
Tu Rongrong did not stop her. Seeing that she was happy, she continued to weave her basket with peace of mind.
Fortunately, Tu Rongrong was an experienced worker, and it wasn't her first time weaving a basket, so it didn't take her long to get the basket out. Standing up, Tu Rongrong picked up the basket, which looked quite sturdy and should be able to be used for a while.
"Okay, Yuanyuan, the basket is ready, we can go pick mushrooms." Tu Rongrong stretched out her hand to her sister.
"Okay." Tu Yuanyuan obediently grabbed her sister's hand and stood up, holding her own small basket in the other hand. The cute little girl with a beautiful wreath on her head held her sister's hand and went into the forest to pick mushrooms.
"Yuanyuan, these are edible, such as chicken mushroom, straw mushroom, and morel mushroom." Although this is in the northern hemisphere, the climate is still very humid, and it must have rained, so there are still many mushrooms in the forest.
While picking mushrooms, Tu Rongrong explained to her sister the names of these mushrooms and whether they were edible.
"There are also some mushrooms that can't be eaten. They're poisonous, you know? Some mushrooms are more inedible the more colorful they are, but there are also some white mushrooms that can't be eaten either."
"Mushrooms taste very delicious. After we pick mushrooms, we will catch a few chickens and then take them back to stew pheasant and mushrooms. It will definitely taste delicious." Tu Rongrong introduced the food while talking about it. However, the ignorant Tu Yuanyuan did not know what delicious food was, nor did she know how delicious it should be.
