As time went by, Li Xue improved the tribe and made its people's lives better and better.
In the end, they chose An from the tribe as their partner. The way they got along, Li Xue seemed indifferent, while An seemed to be deeply in love with Li Xue.
The two of them were mutually attracted and were doing quite well.
When Meng was six years old, Qing gave birth to twin sons at once. She thought that since she was going to have children anyway, she might as well get it all done at once.
After having three sons, Yong longed for a daughter, but Qing was not going to grant him that wish.
The lives of women in the tribe are truly miserable. Even with the female protagonist leading the tribe in building and developing, things are only slightly better than before.
I think I'd rather not have a daughter to suffer with, but it's okay if I have a son; I don't mind him suffering a little.
As the tribe prospered, many neighboring tribes that could no longer make a living came to join them, resulting in a growing population within the tribe.
There were very few houses outside the tribe in the past, but as the population grew, the population suddenly exploded.
The prey in the surrounding forests was no longer enough to feed the tribe. Fortunately, they listened to Li Xue's advice, captured animals to raise themselves, and cultivated more fields to grow food, which allowed them to feed the growing population of the tribe.
Li Xue had never forgotten to test Qing, but each test had yielded unsatisfactory results, and Qing was becoming more and more like the natives of this world.
After trying for a while, I gave up. Sometimes I feel like I'm obsessed, but does it really matter?
Qing was well aware of Li Xue's probing, so she just kept lying. Although she wasn't very smart, she would pretend to know nothing when asked questions and try to make herself sound more and more like a native.
More than a decade passed like this, and everyone who saw Qing thought he was a native of the area.
As the children grew up, Qing no longer wanted to stay in the tribe.
Thinking back to the fact that I've been trapped here for almost twenty years since I came here, I'm really tired of it.
That night, after a lot of commotion, Qing and Yong lay on the kang (a heated brick bed) to calm themselves down.
Qing, having stayed here for so long, really didn't want to stay any longer, so she tentatively asked Yong.
"Yong, the children have all grown up and chosen their partners. How about we travel to other places?"
Yong was taken aback for a moment when his partner asked this question, but thankfully it was only for a moment, and he quickly came to his senses.
I thought about the problem my partner mentioned and realized it didn't seem like a big deal.
The tribe is now developing better and better, with a population of over 3,000, making it a relatively large tribe.
Even if she left the tribe, it didn't seem to matter. Seeing how much her partner wanted to go out, she thought that even if she disagreed, she would probably run away on her own.
After all, her archery skills were becoming more and more proficient, and she could easily hunt large wild animals like cattle and pigs.
The thought of her running away alone made Yong feel particularly uncomfortable. Although he didn't know why, his heart told him that he didn't want to leave Qing.
He also couldn't bear to see Qing leave him.
After thinking for a moment, he nodded in agreement. Worried that Qing might not see him nod, he added, "Qing, I'll go with you wherever you go."
Qing was quite satisfied with what he heard. After so many years of getting along, she had Yong firmly under her control, so she wasn't surprised at all by his choice.
"Yong, you're so kind. We'll pack up and leave in a few days."
Yong felt that Qing was right; he really was that good.
Just thinking about all the things at home, especially the innermost cave filled with stored grain and meat, I knew they would definitely go to waste if I wasn't home.
"The grain and meat piled up at home should either be sent to my sons, otherwise it will definitely go to waste if they are left here."
Qing has no problem, but this time when she goes out, she plans to use her own storage items. Since the tribe believes in gods, she can just say that they were given by the gods.
He wasn't embarrassed at all about bluffing Yong, just like he wouldn't voice his suspicions; on the contrary, he would keep it a secret for him.
Qing had no choice. Traveling across the continent would definitely require using the space, and if he got anything good, he would definitely want to take it with him. It was better to just say so from the beginning.
"Yong, it's too late now. I'll tell you a secret tomorrow, but you absolutely mustn't tell anyone. Let's get some rest now."
Yong was particularly curious about the secret Qing had mentioned, and he was extremely eager to know.
Seeing that her partner was already asleep, she knew that she definitely didn't want to tell her now, so she could only give up on the suggestion of waking her up.
Unfortunately, because the secret I wanted to know was still unknown, it was particularly torturous. I tossed and turned until very late before finally falling asleep.
The next day, when Qing got up, she saw Yong staring intently at her from the other side of the kang (a heated brick bed). Before she knew it, Qing was startled.
"Why are you staring at me instead of sleeping? Even if you're not sleeping, you can get up! You're really scaring me to death."
Yong hadn't expected to scare his partner, so he patted Qing's back and gently coaxed him.
"Qing, I didn't mean to. I just really wanted to know what the secret you were talking about was. You've never been so mysterious before, so I woke up early and wanted to tell you after you got up."
Looking at Yong's aggrieved appearance, Qing felt he had completely let down his title as a tribal warrior.
Fortunately, she wasn't the type to tease people; she just didn't say it last night because it was so dark she couldn't see anything clearly.
Although pine resin can now be used instead of candles, even that step is quite troublesome, so I'd like to wait until it's broad daylight to do it.
Seeing how anxious he was, she couldn't bear to be angry anymore. After all, they had slept in the same bed every day for over twenty years, so there was bound to be some affection between them.
"Come with me, and I'll tell you my secret."
He took Yong directly into the cave inside and, right in front of him, put a large bag of dried meat into his storage ring.
I quickly turned to look at Yong's expression, wondering if he was scared or something else.
Yong was indeed shocked, but he wasn't afraid. He just wondered if his partner was a fairy from legend.
Although the tribes are very active, they still have great reverence for gods and Buddhas. No matter what they do, they will pray and worship the gods and Buddhas of this world first, in order to achieve peace and smooth sailing.
"Qing, are you a fairy?"
