While making the clothes, my mind wandered, and I almost cut the wrong pieces several times! By the time I finished one set of clothes, it was already late at night!
Xu Han finally couldn't stay awake any longer and tidied up to go to sleep!
But I didn't sleep very well that night; I kept having dreams, all jumbled up and over! Sometimes I dreamt of Lu Chuan, sometimes of other people, it was all so chaotic…
When she woke up the next day, the sun was already high in the sky. Lu Chuan wasn't home, and Xu Han was too lazy to make breakfast. She simply took out a steamed bun and a bowl of porridge from her spatial storage, and that was her breakfast for the day.
After breakfast, I continued my work for the day. It had been a long time since I had done any weightlifting work. I had been sawing bamboo all day yesterday, and my arms were so sore that I could barely lift them.
So today, Xu Han plans to put aside the work of sawing and splitting bamboo and start taking the bamboo strips she prepared yesterday to the backyard to make a trellis for the vegetables!
Carry all the bamboo that was sawed yesterday to the backyard, then find some scraps of cloth in the room, tear them into strips, and we'll use them to tie the bamboo strips together later.
Take out a bamboo stick, aim it at the side of the climbing vegetable, and with a little force, you can insert it into the mud!
Insert one bamboo stick next to each vegetable, making two rows into one, and tie a bamboo strip horizontally in the middle of each row to secure the bamboo strips together for greater strength.
This will prevent it from being knocked over when it rains or gets windy!
After tying the bamboo strips together, use cloth strips to secure the vegetables to the bamboo so that they can climb up the bamboo strips.
I spent the whole morning setting up trellises for all kinds of cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, and green beans, and there were still some cantaloupes and the like left.
The bamboo was all used up, so Xu Han went to the front yard to eat her belated lunch first, and then continued sawing bamboo.
There's not much left now, let's try to finish it all this afternoon!
Another day passed, and before we knew it, it was the third day. This morning's task was simply to insert the bamboo strips!
It was almost finished yesterday. Now there's only a little bit of the scaffolding left to build, and it'll be done in a bit.
After finishing, there were still some long bamboo strips left. Xu Han didn't waste them; she cut them in half to use for fixing larger plants like tomatoes and peppers.
This is much easier to do. Just insert bamboo strips and then tie the chili seedlings to the bamboo strips with cloth strips!
It was all done in just one afternoon!
For the past three days, Xu Han has only boiled water for washing and has not cooked any meals. She eats very little by herself and is too lazy to cook. She eats all the leftover food from her space!
Three days passed, and Lu Chuan still hadn't returned. According to the route he had described, Lu Chuan should have arrived at his destination by now, and if all went well, he should be back soon.
Meanwhile, Lu Chuan was observing the prey's tracks.
After arriving at our destination on the afternoon of the first day, we found that there were fewer small animals nearby, and the sheep were no longer living in the area where they used to live!
The number of pheasants and rabbits in the vicinity had also decreased significantly, and upon noticing this, Lu Chuan immediately became more vigilant.
There must be large carnivores occupying this area, which is why these smaller herbivores have stayed away.
After searching for two days, on the third day, they finally found traces of this large animal. Based on the shape of the droppings, they were almost 90% certain that it was a tiger!
The tiger must be nearby. After confirming his opponent, Lu Chuan became even more cautious!
Lu Chuan had hunted a large tiger with his father before, back when they had just moved into the valley. For the safety of their place of residence, Lu Chuan's father took him to clear out large animals near the valley.
However, Lu Chuan has never hunted a tiger on his own, and in all these years, no large animals have ever appeared in the area where he lives!
Lu Chuan's skills have improved even more than his father's after so many years of training, but his chances of winning against a tiger alone are not very high!
There's no other way. No matter how slim the odds are, we have to give it our all this time for a stable life in the future!
I first carefully observed the tiger's tracks, trying to hunt it down while ensuring my own safety as much as possible.
My wife is waiting for me to come home!
Lu Chuan didn't want to risk his life; he had to come up with a foolproof plan...
Xu Han was completely unaware of Lu Chuan's situation!
By the fourth day, the vegetable garden in the backyard was completely cleared up! There was nothing to do today! After tidying up the house, I picked up a hoe and went to the overgrown area to weed and water the plants!
Weeds have been growing like crazy lately. If you don't remove them for a few days, there will be a lot of weeds in the field. I use a hoe to remove them all. If I hoe the weeds in the morning, they will be dried up by the afternoon after a day in the sun and won't take root again.
After lunch, I went home to rest for a while to avoid the midday sun. Once the sun wasn't so strong, I put on my hat and went back out to work.
After weeding for a while, as the sun began to set, I started watering the winter melon, pumpkin, scallion sprouts, and the sweet potatoes that I had just planted a few days ago.
The first sweet potatoes I planted are thriving and don't need watering anymore. The ones I planted a while ago have been watered a few times and have already turned green and started growing. A little more water will help them grow even better!
In the evening, Xu Han continued making clothes. She had already made two sets of clothes for Lu Chuan, and she also made another set for herself to wear alternately.
In the province, when it's cloudy or rainy, clothes won't dry and there are no clothes to change into.
With the weather getting hotter and hotter, it's time to make Xia Shan! I'll make one for myself first. Lu Chuan has Xia Shan, so there's no rush, but I don't have one!
Not only does Xu Han want to make Xia Shan, she also plans to make two sets of long-sleeved and long-legged pajamas for herself and Lu Chuan, and two sets of short-sleeved and short-legged pajamas for each of them!
I don't know what the situation is like outside yet, so I won't go out tomorrow. I'll just stay home and make clothes!
On the fifth day, Xu Han spent the whole day making clothes, making six sets of pajamas in one day: four for Lu Chuan and two for herself...
On the sixth day, I continued making my three summer dresses and two sets of pajamas...
As time went on and Lu Chuan still hadn't returned, Xu Han grew increasingly worried. She wondered how Lu Chuan was doing and whether he should be heading back.
On the seventh day, Lu Chuan still hadn't returned, and the agreed-upon time had arrived. Xu Han couldn't sit still any longer, so she took a basket and dug for wild vegetables near her home, not going far so that Lu Chuan wouldn't be unaware of her return!
On the eighth day, Xu Han still hadn't seen Lu Chuan. She grew increasingly anxious. In ancient times, there were no telephones, and she was completely in the dark. There was nothing she could do but wait.
It's almost afternoon, and the clouds in the sky are getting darker and darker; it looks like it's going to rain!
The mountain roads are not easy to walk after it rains, so we will get wet on our way back from Luchuan, which will delay our trip!
