Su Nian laughed heartily, "Beichen, why don't you let them stay?"
Chu Beichen rubbed his hands, then suddenly grabbed Su Nian's ear and whispered in her ear, "Don't you think it's messy enough? Don't you see that these two women's necks are covered in dirt? If you let them stay in the bedroom overnight, all the fur they touched will have to be thrown away!"
Chu Beichen disliked the women in this place for being unhygienic, but this reason was unlikely to be supported, so he changed his words and said that they were ugly.
This extra episode added a lot of fun to the couple's life. After some laughter and joking, they started doing housework again.
Today, two people caught a lot of fish by the Silver Lake. They were very skillful and had already scaled, gutted and cleaned the fish by the river. Now they were drying them directly in the storage room. After the skin was dry, they would string the fish together with straw ropes.
Tonight's meal is fresh fish stewed with Huichun. Because there is no food, Su Nian and Chu Beichen's appetite has become much larger. They plan to cook three fish in the evening and add two pieces of Huichun.
The couple divided the work. Chu Beichen went to the barn to take care of the animals and feed them grass and water, while Su Nian went into the cabin to cook dinner.
As the aroma of food wafted out of the house, it was already completely dark.
Chu Beichen finished his work in the barn and came out with an oil lamp. Suddenly, he stopped and glanced at the fence of his house. He asked warily, "Who's there?"
"It's me, please don't chase me away!" said a pitiful voice. Chu Beichen was not mistaken, there was indeed a woman curled up under the fence.
The woman slowly stood up under Chu Beichen's gaze. She looked quite frail, her fur vest swaying. "The village chief asked me to come. He said you sent the two most beautiful women in the village back home. I think you might like someone like me, so he asked me to come over and show you!"
Chu Beichen was at a loss for words for a moment. He really wanted to find the bearded village chief and have a fight. Why did he feel that he had to like every woman in the village? He didn't like this one, but immediately sent him another one. This village chief was really nosy.
At this time, the door of the cabin opened, and Su Nian stretched out her hand and called Chu Beichen, "Beichen, come back for dinner!"
"Coming, coming," beyond the couple's expectations, the thin woman quickly pushed open the fence door and ran towards the cabin.
Su Nian was stunned for a moment, then blocked the door, not letting the thin woman in, "What are you doing here?"
The thin woman pointed at Chu Beichen and said, "All the single women in our village must find a spouse. Your husband only has you by his side, which is obviously not enough. I will be his woman!"
Chu Beichen quickly ran over and pulled the thin woman, "Su Nian, I didn't let her in, she ran in on her own!"
This time, Chu Beichen did not hold back. No matter what the thin woman said, he pretended not to hear her. He pulled the thin woman to the gate of the fence and pushed her out.
The thin woman kept pounding on the door. "What are you doing? Donghuo Village has been living like this for hundreds of years. Even if you don't say anything to me, others will still come!"
No matter what the thin woman said, the couple ignored her and went into the house and closed the door.
However, the couple was still a little worried while eating. If what the thin woman said was true, wouldn't it mean that this kind of trouble would come to them every day?
Chu Beichen saw that the time to show his sincerity had come, and he quickly patted his chest and said to Su Nian, "Don't worry, no matter how many women come, I will send them away. I only love you!"
Su Nian smiled and reached out to scratch Chu Beichen's nose, "Then I'll see how you perform!"
The next few days were just as the two had expected. With the village chief's deliberate arrangement, there was an endless stream of women coming to Chu Beichen's house to stick around.
However, these women were sent away by Chu Beichen with various excuses.
At this time, the men in the village also began to believe that Chu Beichen's hometown definitely had the rule of monogamy. However, even if there was no such rule, they understood Chu Beichen's choice because Su Nian was more beautiful than all the women in their village combined.
If I can only sleep with one woman in my life, then it would be worth it to sleep with a woman as beautiful as Su Nian.
This incident was just an episode. The young man Wali, who was treated by Chu Beichen and his wife a few days ago, has recovered from his wounds. He thinks Su Nian's medical skills are superb and is spreading the word in the village.
As more and more people heard about it, some people with chronic diseases that were difficult to cure came to Su Nian for treatment with a try-it-out attitude, carrying a few bunches of wild fruits or a pheasant.
Su Nian took the things generously and began to examine everyone.
Compared to hunting and fishing, Su Nian is best at treating illnesses.
Su Nian is best at traditional Chinese medicine. The lack of modern medicines and medical equipment in this world has little impact on her diagnosis and treatment.
Thanks to his ability to heal diseases with his hands, Su Nian also discovered many plants with therapeutic effects in the cedar forest.
Medicine and food have the same origin. Su Nian sorted these plants into categories. Now many villagers come to seek medical treatment, and these plants are useful.
Su Nian's silver needles are effective for diseases that cannot be cured by medicine.
Because Su Nian's treatment effect was so good, the villagers' mentality of giving it a try had long since turned into a determined mentality. They were surprised to find that Su Nian was not only good at treating illnesses, but his medical skills were also much better than those of the old witch doctor.
In this day and age, the most popular people are skilled hunters and excellent doctors. One of them can hunt for enough food, and the other can save lives and heal the wounded.
Su Nian and his wife happened to have both of these trades, so they quickly established their own prestige in the village and made many friends.
The weather has been very good recently, but Wall-E's grandfather predicted that a heavy snowstorm is coming soon.
One evening, fine ice chips fell from the sky. These ice chips quickly froze into ice after hitting the ground. The wind was blowing outside all night. When Chu Beichen woke up the next day, he saw that the pile of firewood near the fence was covered with a thick layer of white snow.
Chu Beichen collected these firewoods during his free time in the morning and evening. He was afraid that the winter would be too long and he would not be able to survive without fuel.
On that day, Su Nian and Chu Beichen did not go out hunting, and a blizzard started in the afternoon.
Except for necessary matters, Chu Beichen would not let Su Nian leave the cabin. He said that Su Nian was too small and might be blown away by the wind and snow if she went out.
The snowstorm was so severe that the animals in the house stayed quietly in the barn, leaving the cleaning to their poor owner.
At night, the cabin trembled from time to time in the snowstorm, and Su Nian and Chu Beichen could hear creaking sounds in their ears. As long as they closed their eyes, they could hear the sound of ice and snow falling from the roof.
