【Quick Wear】My Years as a Mother-in-law

Chapter 301: Primitive Tribe Chieftain Mother-in-law 21

"The clan leader's lineage must be Yang's descendants, because every clan leader chooses his successor in this way."

Noticing the change in atmosphere, Xing hurriedly explained.

The atmosphere suddenly relaxed, and everyone continued to talk and laugh until late at night. All the seafood was cleaned, placed on racks and roasted by the fire. The three people from Langyawei took turns guarding the yard to add fire and turn the meat.

All the dried goods that could be made into food were processed, including various types of salted fish, dried squid, dried shrimp, scallops, etc. Those that could not be processed, such as crabs and sea urchins, had to be eaten as soon as possible. Yun Xi cooked a pot of seafood soup and steamed some yam for the three of them.

"You've worked hard tonight. Eat if you're hungry. Rest well tomorrow and don't have to work." Yun Xi said to everyone, "The rest of you don't have to work tomorrow either. Do whatever you want. From now on, you'll have one day off every five days to do your own things. You can take a shower, wash clothes, wash shoes, cut your hair, etc. You don't have to work for the clan."

Tao was surprised, "You can do whatever you want?"

"Yes, even if you go hunting and gathering tomorrow, you don't have to hand it over to the tribe. You can keep it for yourself, but the premise is that you don't slack off when hunting and gathering for the tribe." Yun Xi explained, "The day after tomorrow, everyone will prepare to perform a sacrifice to see if it can stimulate the bloodline."

Shan asked, "Chief, can the Star Priest also help us stimulate our bloodline?"

Yun Xi looked at Xing, who scratched his head. "I have two sets of formulas here. One is complicated and should be connected to the dragon totem. The other is relatively simple and doesn't specify what it does. How about trying them together?"

Xing was puzzled, "Harmless?"

Xing wasn't sure, "Probably?"

Yun Xi nodded, "Let's try it then."

Xing raised his hand, "Chief, there is one more thing."

"What's the matter?" Yun Xi tilted her head and looked at her.

"We need to carve a totem. There are several materials available. Blood iron wood is the best, followed by bluestone. Ordinary stone and wood have limited effectiveness." Xing recalled the inherited knowledge and explained directly, "Blood iron wood is a red tree that usually grows deep in the mountains and is difficult to find. Bluestone is a translucent green stone."

Yun Xi thought for a moment and took out a jade pendant from the space, "Is this okay?"

"Yes, that's it!" Xing was surprised, but soon disappointed. "How could it be! There's a pattern on it?"

"I'll find the raw stone for you, and you can carve it."

Yun Xi took the jade pendant away, found a piece of raw material from the space and cut it open. There was emerald green jade inside, and gave it to Xing to deal with. She wanted to see what the so-called sacrifice was like, so she was not stingy with a piece of jade.

Xing happily took it, found his crossbow arrow and began to carve it carefully.

Yue advised, "Why don't you go to bed? There's still time for carving tomorrow."

Xing immersed herself in it, "No, you go and rest first, I'm in perfect condition now."

"Ok."

The entire tribe fell into silence.

Yun Xi was in her room. She put a thick mattress on the kang and then took out the quilt to sleep. Without the mattress, the kang always felt hard and uncomfortable. This was why Bing loved to stick to her, because she enjoyed being with her grandmother.

Yun Xi is generous in giving love to her children. The love of her relatives in childhood will turn into a powerful force at some point in the future to support her in moving forward.

Twinkle, twinkle little star, the sky is full of little stars...

Little swallows, wearing flowery clothes, come here every spring.

"Whoosh..."

Soon, the little guy began to snore softly and slept soundly.

The next day was a good day, with the scorching sun shining evenly, making people dizzy.

Yun Xi went to see Ying and found that she had no appetite.

"Is it too hot?"

"Mom, I feel very hot." Ying lay on the kang on her side and didn't want to move. Her face was very red and sweat was pouring down.

"Take care of Bing. Mom will go get you some mung beans to make some soup to cool you down. Fan yourself with the leaves first."

Pregnant women are very afraid of heat, so Yun Xi poured some cold water to wipe the sweat off her face and then asked her to fan herself.

"It's definitely cooler now, and I feel more alive."

Ying hugged her son and sighed comfortably.

Bing lay motionless on the kang, obviously unable to bear the heat.

"Thank you, grandma."

"If you really can't stand doing this anymore, drink water and replenish salt in time."

"it is good."

Yun Xi gave some instructions, went to find a bamboo basket, padded it with large leaves, put it on her back and walked out.

Xing caught up with her, "Mom, where are you going?"

"Xing, Mommy's going to look for mung beans. Your elder sister is so hot, I'm afraid she'll get heatstroke if things go on like this. Do you want to go with Mommy?" Yun Xi gestured, "You're growing so fast, you're taller than Mommy now. Take this, sweetie."

I handed her a piece of honeycomb with a lot of honey in it. Xing took it and took a bite, feeling the sweetness in her heart.

"Mom, am I the only one who has it? How about leaving it to my elder sister? And Bing, I've never tasted honey before." Xing couldn't bear to eat it after taking a bite. Sweetness is rare, and honey is even rarer and very precious.

How could Yun Xi not understand her little thoughts? Every child hopes to get the exclusive love of their parents, let alone three children with only a mother and no father.

"Eat it quickly, don't let anyone see you. Next time there's more, mom will share it with your elder and second sisters."

Xing felt the honey in her mouth become even sweeter, and she kept smiling, "Hehe, Mom is so nice."

He licked the honey carefully and held it in his mouth, reluctant to swallow it.

"You are all my children, and you are all the same in my heart." Yun Xi went to find mung beans according to the marks on the map. She wondered if the mung beans would grow bigger after the plants grew taller.

Half an hour later, the two stood south of Nanshan with dull eyes.

"Mom, is this a mung bean? It's so big!"

Yun Xi nodded numbly. Indeed, a mung bean was as big as an apricot.

Her farming genes kicked in, and she couldn't control her hands at all, picking frantically. "Hurry up and pick them all back."

Xing said as she worked, "Mom, there are too many things we can't take away."

"Mark it and bring people to collect it the day after tomorrow."

Yun Xi looked at the various foods and medicinal herbs marked on the map, and her eyes were filled with envy. After the sacrifice, she must bring people to collect more. After transforming into a beast, she will get hungry quickly, and the food she stored before will not be enough to survive the winter.

"it is good."

No one refuses food.

The two filled their backpacks and returned. When they got back to the tribe, Yun Xi went to the kitchen and cooked two pots of mung bean soup. She added a little rock sugar to make it sweet, and then added a lot of ice cubes. The boiling mung bean soup quickly cooled down.

"Xing'er, drink a bowl of mung bean soup first to cool down your heat. Go and ask the others to scoop it up themselves. I'll give two bowls to your elder sister and Bing."

Yun Xi took a bowl of mung bean soup and drank it quickly. Her whole body felt cool and comfortable.

"it is good."

Xing took a sip and found it unexpectedly delicious, sweet and cool. She quickly finished a bowl, scooped another bowl, and drank while calling for help.
