Chapter 119
"If you really want to practice magic, you must find the element that is closest to you and that you can use as soon as possible." Shuyu continued.
"Okay, then I'll try it slowly." Yu Sui answered hesitantly.
There was no rush to learn magic, so while the dwarves were making farm tools, Yu Sui took out the fur of the gray falcon and the silver-winged tiger that he had collected on the road to make quilts.
Everyone is relatively idle in winter, even the cafeteria is idle because there is no fresh prey.
He stopped torturing himself and asked the skillful Karan and Ellie to help him sew the quilt.
The fur of these two monsters is fluffy and soft, and the odor will be gone after a simple wash.
Yu Sui spread the fluff on the cotton cloth layer by layer, and Karan and Ellie helped to sew it up.
Down quilts are prone to shedding, so the stitches were extra tight when the two of them sewed them. It was much tighter than the first time Yu Sui and Qi sewed them together. Even though they had to sew several stitches to secure the down, it didn't look ugly.
Yu Sui felt a little embarrassed when he thought of the centipede-like marks on his first quilt. He was a complete clumsy quilt maker. From childhood to adulthood, the best thing he could sew was the holes in his socks, because practice makes perfect...
"This kind of fluff can also be used to make quilts, and they feel very comfortable." Karan picked up the sewn quilt and rubbed it, and couldn't help but sigh.
Ellie caressed the soft quilt lovingly. "His mind works so quickly, he can think of anything. This fluffy quilt is softer than a cotton quilt. It must be very comfortable to cover yourself with. I just don't know how warm it is."
Yu Sui sat cross-legged on the edge of the kang and said with a smile, "Down quilts are warmer than cotton quilts. These birds rely on their down to keep warm in winter. How can we not keep them warm if we use them to make quilts?"
Ellie and Karan felt as if they had suddenly realized something when they heard this, and their eyes looked at the duvet even more passionately.
"That's great! I thought it was inconvenient to buy anything here. My quilt at home is already very old, and I was thinking of exchanging it with the human caravan for some cotton. Now I can just catch some pheasants and ducks to make a quilt."
Ellie said happily that this would save a lot of money. Those black-hearted humans sold cotton at too high a price, almost as high as the price of good wine.
Although the dwarves lived a relatively wealthy life, they could not afford to spend too much.
As for Karan, before Yu Sui, the Snow Werewolf, traveled through time, the entire tribe didn't have a single quilt. In winter, everyone used animal skins to cover themselves to keep warm. Every year, she would leave the softest animal skins for her two children.
No matter how soft the animal skin is, it is certainly not as comfortable as a quilt, let alone a down quilt. Karan's love for it is almost overflowing from his eyes.
Originally, the silver-winged tiger did not have much down, after all, it only had feathers on its wings, and there was even less fine down that could be used. Fortunately, the gray falcon that came later had quite a lot of down all over its body. After all, it was so large in size that it could be used to make several down quilts.
Later, several flying monsters were caught one after another. Yu Sui collected all the usable fur. Although it was not as much as that provided by the gray falcon, even a little bit of fur is still meat.
Originally, Yu Sui planned to add one more quilt, but he unexpectedly picked up a tree feather on the road, so he was left with two down quilts.
On the way, he also decided to give Qi and Xu a down quilt each. Now most of the down was used up by the four down quilts. Yu Sui gave the remaining down to Karan and Ai Li, and they could share it to make sheets and quilts for their own children.
"There are not many left. Wait for me to catch some more pheasants and ducks." Yu Sui said a little embarrassedly.
Ellie originally wanted to refuse. In her opinion, it was just making a few quilts for the cubs, so why should she be paid?
She was about to wave her hand, but Yu Sui saw that she wanted to refuse and handed the down to Karan, "Aunt Karan, you two can share it. Don't be polite. You have helped me a lot. Last time, Qi and I took half a day to sew a quilt, and it was so ugly!"
Imagining the two of them scratching their heads and fiddling with the quilt, both Ellie and Karan laughed.
"Okay, Xiaoyusui gave it to us, so stop pushing it around. Let's split it up when we get home and make a quilt as soft as this for the little one at home." Karan said with a hearty laugh.
Only then did Ai Li agree to accept it. Just as the two were about to leave, Yu Sui patted his forehead and ran back to the storage room to get out a piece of cotton cloth. "By the way, cotton is best for making down quilts. Linen is rough and easily lints. I've replaced a lot this year. You can use it to make quilts."
Even Kalan refused to accept it now. "Xiao Yu Sui, I can't accept this. The cotton cloth from the human caravan requires a lot of magic cores to exchange. They already have a lot of down. How can I accept your cotton cloth?"
Ellie pushed the cotton cloth with both hands and refused repeatedly, "I still have more at home, enough to make a quilt for Hank. This down is enough to take advantage of you!"
Seeing that Yu Sui still refused to give up, Ai Li loosened her hands and turned to leave, "Kalan, you use it first, and then you can bring me the rest of the down!"
Before Yu Sui could call her, Ellie disappeared in a flash.
Yu Sui thought bitterly, why are dwarves like this? Although their legs are short, they move very fast, and they are all impatient...
Seeing this, Karan responded and wanted to run away, but Yu Sui, who had foresight, quickly stuffed the cotton cloth into her arms.
"Okay, Aunt Karan, don't refuse. You and Vanilla always help me. Accepting a piece of cotton cloth is nothing. Besides, don't you want Xiaohua to sleep more comfortably?" Yu Sui advised earnestly.
Speaking of Xiaohua, Karan's firm thoughts wavered for a moment.
Ever since Yu Sui's new home was built, Xiaohua would enviously tell her how comfortable the home was every day after returning from Xiaochu's home, especially the warm kang and the quilt as soft as a cloud.
As a mother, Karan certainly hopes that her children can live comfortably.
The construction of the house can't start until the weather warms up next year, but at least I can let my daughter cover herself with a duvet now...
After thinking about it, she shook her head and said, "No, you are still a cub. It is not easy for you to take such good care of yourself and Xiaochu. How can I accept your things?"
Yu Sui was really afraid of this kind of pushing and shoving scene, and said weakly: "Xiao Chu doesn't have new clothes this year. Although I changed to cotton cloth, I don't know how to make clothes. Aunt Ka Lan, can you help me make cotton clothes for Xiao Chu and make a quilt for Xiao Hua? That should be fine, right?"
Karan hesitated, but finally agreed.
After the two left, Yu Sui rolled around on the newly made quilt in his arms. The quilt made of Warcraft fur was much more comfortable than that made of pheasant fur.
However, this kind of fluff is very rare, and they are lucky this time. If large flying monsters like the Gray Falcon had not been concerned about its monster eggs, they would have flown away as soon as they found that they could not defeat the orcs. The Snow Wolves cannot fly either, so they cannot be caught at all.
