Chapter 180 What is she bragging about? (Please vote and subscribe)
Luo Chong called the elders, the Rat Witch and the Rat Big, and told them that he would take Xiaodie to the Bian tribe. It might take two or three days. During these days, the three of them would temporarily manage the tribe. All work would remain unchanged, and they only needed to prevent the invasion of the enemy. The three nodded in agreement, and then Luo Chong took Xiaodie on the journey back to her mother's home.
After breakfast in the morning, they set off. The two rode on Huishan's back together, and Rourou followed beside him. The two guys were huge and did not run very fast, at least not as fast as the big-horned deer. Fortunately, Luo Chong was not in a hurry, and just moved forward leisurely. He even saw birds and pheasants on the road and couldn't help shooting a few, but he didn't see a single person. The number of humans was still too small.
They jogged for a whole morning. At about one or two o'clock in the afternoon, the two climbed over a low hill and finally saw the hemp field of the Bian tribe in the distance. The women of the Bian tribe were also working in the hemp field at this time. They listened to Luo Chong's advice and began to pick the first batch of ramie this year.
Each woman held a bone knife or stone sickle in her hand, harvesting ramie one by one. Just when the two of them appeared not far from the hemp field, a sharp whistle of "beep, beep" suddenly came from the top of the hill where Xiaodie had peeked at Luo Chong.
The sound of the whistle was heard from far away. The women in the tribe heard it and all looked at the top of the hill. There was a little girl about five or six years old, wearing a sack suit, well, it was almost a sack, two rectangular pieces of mesh linen sewn together, with three openings on the top for arms and head, and the bottom edge was over the knee, barely a dress.
The girl was jumping in place with one hand pointing in the direction of Luo Chong, and with the other hand holding a whistle to her mouth and blowing it continuously, warning the women in the hemp field on the hillside.
The women looked at the two giant beasts standing in the distance and were stunned for a moment. Some of them saw the two people sitting on the giant beasts, who seemed a little familiar.
Looking back at Luo Chong on the back of the gray mountain, he was also stunned. What was that just now? Was it a sentry? No, no, this is not important. What is important is the beeping sound. The tribe actually has a whistle? What's going on?
People on both sides were stunned for a moment. Fortunately, Xiaodie knew what she was doing and shouted "Amu" in the direction of Matian.
The leader of the tribe, Shang, heard the shout and recognized it as Xiaodie's voice. She was very excited. This was the first woman in the tribe to marry out, and she was her own daughter. Shang immediately dropped the work in her hands and ran over here, shouting as she ran: "Xiaodie? Is that you? Why are you back?"
Xiaodie was also very excited. She turned over and wanted to jump down, but Luo Chong took her hand and gently put her down. Then she ran to find her Amu.
Half a minute later, the two met. The mother and daughter hugged each other tightly, tears in their eyes. Although they had only been separated for more than two months, it was still the longest time they had been apart. Luo Chong watched from a distance and did not come forward to disturb them.
"Amu, it's me. I came back to see you. Woo, wow, I missed you so much."
"Be good, don't cry, don't cry. You are an adult who is about to give birth to a baby, but you are still like a child. Why did you come back suddenly? The Han tribe doesn't want you anymore? Or is that Han leader not good to you? If they don't want you, then come back. Amu misses you too."
Shang held Xiaodie in his arms and patted her back gently to comfort her, just like coaxing a child to coax a daughter who had been away from home for several months.
"No, I missed you myself, so I wanted to come back to see you. It was Luo Chong who brought me back. He didn't abandon me. Luo Chong was very good to me. That's right, he said he would wait another two years before letting me give birth to a child for him. He said that we are still too young now." Xiaodie broke free from Shang's arms and explained while wiping the tears from her face.
"Ah? Too young? Don't women give birth to children at that age? Amu also gave birth to a child at that age. How could it be small? Does he still not like you, or is there something wrong with him?" Shang asked in confusion.
"No, no, he's very normal. If I kiss him, he would do that too." Xiaodie was very embarrassed to explain in a low voice when she heard her mother asking such a question.
"Ah? Then, why? Could it be that..."
"Mom, we are fine. Don't ask this. I came back this time to bring you something good. It's a piece of cloth I knitted by myself." Xiaodie saw that Mom was going to continue asking questions, so she hurriedly changed the subject.
"Cloth? Why did you send me that? We have it in our tribe. Really, will you upset the Han leader?"
"No, he promised me that. I only wanted a small piece, but Luo Chong gave me twenty meters. He is so generous. Ah Mu, wait, I will get it for you."
"Twenty meters? What is a meter?" Shang asked in confusion.
"A meter is a unit used by the Han tribe to measure length." Xiaodie ran towards Luo Chong and turned back to explain the meaning of meters to Shang.
Luo Chong had already jumped off the elephant's back, and his eyes were still looking at the little girl blowing the whistle on the top of the slope. What exactly was she holding? I am so curious.
"Luo Chong."
"Ah? Yes."
"Um, that roll of woolen cloth, are you..."
"Oh, I'll take it down for you."
Luo Chong restrained his curious eyes and came back to his senses. He untied the roll of woolen cloth from Huishan's back and handed it to Xiaodie, then followed Xiaodie over. The two Deinonychus behind him followed closely, turning their heads to look around, but did not run around. This was a strange place, and they were afraid that Luo Chong would abandon them again.
The two elephants and two men came to Shang again, which scared Shang. Didn't they ride a horned deer last time? This time they directly changed to two bigger ones. It seems that there are many kinds of wild animals raised by the Han tribe.
Luo Chong put his right hand on his chest and leaned over to salute Shang, imitating Xiaodie's accent and calling "Amu". Although Luo Chong's Han tribe is relatively powerful, Shang is an elder after all, so this etiquette cannot be omitted.
Shang also hurriedly saluted Luo Chong as a respect for the Han tribe. The two greeted each other, and then listened to Xiaodie excitedly introducing the woolen cloth to Shang.
"Look, this is the cloth I wove. It's not made of hemp thread, but of the long hair of a four-legged animal called an alpaca. First it's twisted into yarn, and then it's woven into cloth. Look, this piece of cloth is really long."
Xiaodie held the roll of cloth in her arms and pulled out a piece to show Shang. The women in the hemp field saw that Xiaodie was back and came to join in the fun.
"Wow, this is also cloth, it's woven so densely that you can't see the lines. It must be windproof."
"It's so wide and so big. Our tribe can't weave it like this."
The women whispered. Shang was also surprised and took the piece of cloth in her hand to look at it.
