Su Tang looked back and saw that Lin Xia's hands were full of clay, and the clay on the spool was soft and shapeless.
The wheel spun rapidly, and a clump of clay even flew out.
With a "smack," it hit Su Tang's face as she turned around.
Su Tang: "..." Is this making pottery or murdering her own daughter?
“Mother…” Su Tang peeled the clay off her face and sighed helplessly.
Lin Xia was startled and rushed over. "Tangtang, are you alright? Mom didn't mean to. Did it hurt you? Let Mom wash you up..."
"I'm fine, Mother, you should go and go make the clothes. I'll take care of things here."
Su Tang quickly stopped Lin Xia; she dared not let her mother help anymore.
Lin Xia nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, Mom will go make the clothes. If you need any help, just call Mom."
After saying that, he went to wash his hands and made a hasty retreat.
Su Tang shook her head, washed the clay off her face, cleaned up the mess Lin Xia had made, and continued making pottery.
Each vessel was made according to the number of people.
Su Tang didn't dare to make too many, fearing that the clay would be wasted if the firing was unsuccessful, so she only made bowls, chopsticks, and pots.
The rest can be added gradually after success.
After it was finished, Su Tang put the items into the kiln, lit a fire with the embers left by Su Jianye, and slowly fired them.
The one thing we have no shortage of here is firewood. Every scrap of wood that Da Qing cuts down can be used as firewood, and it looks like we won't run out for several months.
Su Tang put the firewood in and then sealed the kiln opening.
The process of firing pottery is lengthy, and the results are not visible until the next day.
Su Tang wasn't in a hurry; she planned to help her mother twist the thread while she waited.
As soon as I turned around, I saw that the five cubs, who should have been sleeping in their nest, had somehow ended up at Tao Lun.
"Don't move! Don't move at all!"
Just as the little white balls were about to step onto the clay, Su Tang quickly shouted to stop them.
Upon hearing their mother's voice, the five cubs obediently stopped and looked up at Su Tang with adorable expressions.
Su Tang breathed a sigh of relief, "Phew... thank goodness I didn't step on it, otherwise I don't know how long it would have taken to wash it clean."
The words had barely left his mouth.
One of the cubs tilted its head, its round eyes blinking excitedly, and let out a "woof".
The next second, it stomped on the clay and excitedly ran towards Su Tang with its short legs.
"Awoo~" Mommy, your baby wants Mommy~
Su Tang froze instantly. Before she could stop them, the four cubs behind her seemed to have triggered a switch and followed suit one after another.
The last cub suddenly rushed over and crashed into the cub in front of it.
One crashes into two, two crash into three...
In no time at all, the five cubs turned into little mud balls.
It rolled around on the ground a few times, then wobbled to its feet, shook off the mud, and happily ran towards Su Tang.
At first glance, they look like five little loaches!
Su Tang: "!!!" She was about to explode!
"Don't come any closer! Stand right there and don't move!"
Su Tang's furious warning.
Little mudskipper: "Awoo?" What's Mom saying? I don't understand, never mind...
The five cubs huffed and puffed as they ran even faster.
Su Tang's face darkened. After being covered in mud by the cub, she lit a fire, boiled a pot of water, and resignedly took a stone basin to bathe the cub.
By the time she finished boiling the water, the clay on the cub's body had dried.
Su Tang prepared warm water, then placed the cub in the water and shook it a couple of times, causing the water to darken.
After washing all five cubs clean, they had changed the water basin after basin.
As Su Tang was washing the cub, the cub kept licking and drinking the murky water in the basin, which made Su Tang so angry that she almost vomited blood.
The more she talked, the faster they drank. After finally washing them, Su Tang noticed that all five cubs had round, bulging bellies.
Su Tang: "..." What a bunch of little idiots!
After a witty and courageous bath with the cubs, Su Tang tossed them onto the lawn to sunbathe.
They must have been tired from playing, because the five cubs just lay sprawled out on the grass and fell asleep.
Su Tang was exhausted and sweating profusely. She was annoyed by the sight of the cubs, but seeing them sleeping wet, she couldn't help but grab a clean piece of animal skin and wipe the cubs inside and out again.
"I must have owed you guys something in my past life!"
Su Tang wiped the cubs while complaining, saying that once she found the cubs' biological father, she would make him take these little idiots away!
She simply couldn't raise these little idiots.
Over the next few days, Su Tang and his friends went about their hunting and building of a wooden house in an orderly manner.
Su Jianyuan doesn't catch wild boars every day. Sometimes it's goats, elk, pheasants, wild ducks, and all sorts of animals he's seen before and those he hasn't. The most amazing time was when he brought back a big tiger.
If it weren't for the ancient continent, Su Tang would never dare to eat these things.
After eating this, you'll never have to worry about food again.
After a few days, more than half of the prey that was supposed to be returned to Lang Kui had been returned.
Su Tang's pottery was also successfully made.
The initial pottery had such large cracks that it leaked when filled with water and was unusable. Later, Su Tang improved the firing temperature, and the pottery she made became more and more complete and delicate with each firing.
Su Tang then replaced all the wooden utensils in her home with ceramic ones.
There wasn't enough clay, so they asked Su Jianyuan to dig it up twice more and made several large earthenware jars for storing water.
Filling the container once like this will provide enough water for several days.
She no longer needs to go to the river every day.
However, relying on fetching water all the time is not a long-term solution. Su Tang felt that once the wooden house was built, they would have to find a way to solve the water problem.
After several days of hard work, the wooden house is beginning to take shape.
Su Shiwei built a Chinese-style house with high walls on the outside and a courtyard inside. It was square with three rooms on the east and west sides, and the room on the east side next to the main house was enlarged.
At Lin Xia and Su Guodong's request, that room was reinforced and partitioned off separately for Su Tang to live in from now on.
There was no other way; she was their only precious daughter, and now they were in a dangerous place like the ancient continent, so they had to be careful.
However, it's impossible to accomplish all of this in just a few days.
Su Shiwei has only laid the foundation. The area of each house has been divided up, and the bottom wooden wall has been built to a height of more than half a meter.
It's only a matter of time before the log cabin is built.
Su Tang looked at the beginnings of the wooden house and felt extremely excited.
Just as the family was excited about moving into their new house soon, the gray wolf leader arrived uninvited with a group of orcs.
The gray wolf orcs immediately surrounded Su Tang and her companions.
Su Jianyuan, who was about to go out hunting, was stopped and looked annoyed. "What are you doing? This isn't the Gray Wolf Tribe. Get out of the way!"
The five cubs also sensed danger, and from the cat tree, they hissed fiercely at the nearest gray wolf beastman, their white fur standing on end.
Seeing this, the gray wolf orc angrily slapped the cub.
