Qiu Juan walked in front of Meng Sheng, and it was only a few minutes away from his own cave. Halfway through, he turned his head frequently to look at the stone pot carried by the male.
Meng Sheng frowned again when he looked back three times at every step, and couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy, so he said helplessly, "Walk well."
Hearing that the stone pot was given to them in the cave, Qiu Juan was happy, but at the same time he was a little uneasy. After all, the amount of work involved in digging a stone pot was too much, and the dull stone tool hit the stone to make it look like a pot. One can imagine.
If it were simpler, relying on his thirst for stone pots, he would have already started to build them, so he murmured: "When did my mother ask you to dig the stone pot, she didn't tell me."
"Aunt Luo saw the stone pot in my cave, so she mentioned it by the way, and I chiseled it out again when I had nothing to do."
"It took you a lot of time."
Meng Sheng smiled and didn't say exactly how long it took before the two arrived at the entrance of the cave.
Luo was sitting in the cave at this time, with a piece of animal skin on her lap, as if she was making a skin skirt, when she saw the two people coming, she stood up in shock: "Meng Sheng, you really beat the stone pot!" All right!"
"It's finished. Aunt Luo will see where to put it. I'll help you build the stone pot."
It was true that Luo Dang just said it casually, who would have thought that someone would actually hit the stone pot, this action is too powerful! She was so happy that she didn't know what to do with her hands and feet, and hurriedly wrapped the animal skins piled up on her body into a ball and handed it to Qiu Juan.
"This, this is really troublesome for you!"
Meng Sheng put down the stone pot first: "It's okay, the left and right are not idle in the cave."
Neither Luo nor Qiu Juan had any experience in placing stone pots. In the end, he went to find some flat stones outside the cave, and built the stone pot at the location Luo designated.
He pressed the two edges of the stone pot and carefully shook it twice. Seeing that the stone pot was not showing any tendency to fall, he said to the mother and son, "It's done!"
There was a grateful smile on Luo Cang's old face: "Meng Sheng, thank you so much, now Qiu Juan's wish can be regarded as fulfilled, and he won't be thinking about the stone pot in the chief's cave."
Qiu Juan just came over with a bamboo tube filled with water, and wanted to quench Meng Sheng's thirst, but when he heard his mother teasing him, he raised his voice, "Mother!"
"Haha, this kid is embarrassed!"
Meng Sheng drank half a can of water in one gulp, looked at Qiu Juan, who had his head turned aside, and said with a smile, "Is this the reason why he refused to go to the chief's cave at the food distribution field that day? Children are really thin-skinned."
"I'm an adult, not a child!"
Facing Meng Sheng's words, Qiu Juan felt that they were worse than his mother's words, so he simply ignored them and went to serve the strange stone pot.
Luo looked at the person who had left in anger, and said to Meng Sheng: "Qiu Juan likes to be clean, and always likes to take a bath. The water in the river is too cold. Now it is convenient to have a stone pot."
"In addition to boiling water, you can also cook meat."
Luo's eyes lit up: "Is it the meat you gave us last time?"
Meng Sheng nodded: "Sprinkle some salt into the meat when cooking, and the taste will be much better. If the meat is boiled with a lot of water, put more salt, if there is less water, put less. After the meat is cooked, It’s also good to pick up the remaining soup and cook it as an order.”
"Eating something boiled with salt will give you more strength."
Meng Sheng knew that it was Aunt Luo who usually cooked, so he explained a lot of experience to her. The two were talking enthusiastically. Qiu Juan was holding a few red berries and one in his mouth, and raised his head to signal him to eat. do not eat.
Those amber eyes were clear and lively when they were not sad, and they were especially attractive. He took the berry off his mouth by a strange coincidence.
Qiu Juan froze for a moment: "I've already eaten that."
The corners of Meng Sheng's eyes twitched, wondering what he was doing in front of Yanu's mother, so he quickly said, "I thought you asked me to hold it for you."
He took another berry from the yam, and returned the one he had bitten.
Seeing Meng Sheng taking a bite of the berries, Luo said lovingly, "Qiu Juan went out to pick these. His foot was injured. I won't let him go hunting, so he brought back some berries and wild vegetables. If you like to eat them, why don't you take some?" Let's go back."
"Zhongyang just gave me some this morning, and I just have to pick them myself, but I don't know where the cliff with many berries that Zhongyang mentioned is."
Qiu Juan said, "Don't you know? I'll take you there."
Meng Sheng quickly refused: "No need, let Zhong Yang take me there in a few days, your feet are inconvenient."
"It's nothing inconvenient, it's just a small injury." Qiu Juan was afraid that he wouldn't believe him, so he bent his foot with his back to him, and lifted his foot up a little: "Look, this foot was injured before, it's worse than it is now. The foot that arrived is much more serious, but it’s still fine.”
Seeing his funny actions, Meng Sheng originally wanted to laugh, but he couldn't laugh anymore when he saw the scars on the soles of his feet, which spread from the soles of the feet to the heels.
"Just let him go with you, otherwise he will feel sorry for taking your stone pot for a long time." Luo knew his son too well, and turned to persuade Meng Sheng.
"okay then."
Qiu Juan was a little happy, and gave Meng Sheng two more berries, and the two of them went out of the cave while nibbling on the berries.
Luo looked at the backs of the two with complicated expressions.
She originally thought that Meng Sheng was just a hot-hearted weak male, but the stone pot in the cave told her that things were not that simple.
Two days ago, the food that Qiu Juan brought back from the food distribution area was more than twice as much as usual, especially the large piece of Ewing meat. When he heard that Meng Sheng was helping Zhong Yang hunt together , she was already a little surprised, but when she saw that she had dug the pot in two days, she was already shocked and didn't know what to say.
All kinds of proofs show that Meng Sheng is definitely a powerful male. As for how strong he is, she faintly feels that it will be beyond her imagination.
After Qiu Juan and Kong Jia's misfortune happened, she actually secretly had Meng Sheng's idea. At that time, he felt that Meng Sheng was weak and not outstanding. Maybe he could accept Qiu Juan. She was old, maybe that day Not anymore, Qiu Juan is still young, and he can't really let him live his whole life alone and helpless, that would be too difficult, while she is still here, it would be good to find a reliable male for him of.
So after being helped by Meng Sheng a few times, she silently wrote down this male, and kept observing him to see how his behavior was. As a result, she didn't see anything wrong with his behavior, but found out He has a strong ability, and now he made her into a difficult situation.
It is gold that always shines. It is so attractive to put excellent males in the tribe. Maybe they will repeat the same path of Kongjia.
From her point of view now, Meng Sheng's feelings towards Qiu Juan were a bit ambiguous, a bit like looking at a child, and a bit inexplicable. She couldn't help but feel very worried, wondering if she should continue to let Qiu Juan get closer to him.
"It's just across the woods, and most people in the tribe know that there's a lot of berries around the edge."
Qiu Juan led the way, and the two soon entered a large forest with intertwined roots. This forest was exactly where Qiu Juan walked through the day he met Kong Jia and Tang Tong.
Meng Sheng followed behind the nimble Ya-feong, and felt that his feet seemed to be blown by the wind, and he was walking very fast even after being injured, so he asked, "Is this forest dangerous? Why are you walking so fast all of a sudden?"
Ya Nu stopped, and he almost subconsciously wanted to hurry over here: "There is no danger, I just want to take you there quickly."
Meng Sheng chuckled, Ya female was young, she was not good at lying yet, she was so flustered that she almost wrote the lie on her body, and he didn't expose it.
"You don't like being with me so much?"
Qiu Juan froze for a moment, his eyes froze: "Of course not!"
Seeing his earnest denial, Meng Sheng laughed even harder: "Does that mean you like staying with me?"
"Do not!"
"Either you like it or you don't like it. It's nothing more than two results. If you say no to both, what does that mean?" Meng Sheng put his arms around his chest and looked at Qiu Juan thoughtfully.
It made sense, but Qiu Juan always felt that it was strange to separate them, and he couldn't tell what was wrong, so he stepped up and walked to the front: "Hurry up, we'll be there soon."
Meng Sheng stood there shaking his head and smiled, and after a while hurried to catch up.
Passing through the woods, the field of vision widened a lot in an instant, and one could see some half-green berries hanging on high or low bushes, and Qiu Juan was standing on the edge picking a few red berries.
"When I came to pick them, there were quite a lot. I guess someone came to pick them later. All the good ones were picked, and now the ripe ones are growing on the cliffs." Qiu Juan picked the few remaining berries Putting it aside, looking at the red and ripe berries on the cliff, he regretfully said to Meng Sheng.
Meng Sheng crossed the flat place on the cliff and came to the edge of the cliff. This is a very high cliff with few big trees and most of them are bushes. The bushes are well grown, with a large mass of red and green berries dotted in the middle, which is magnificent and beautiful.
He glanced hastily, and suddenly his eyes stopped on a plant the size of his index finger. Afraid he might be mistaken, he squatted down to look at it. The small green fruit looked like an orange that hadn't grown up. He was overjoyed, isn't it? Lemon tree.
Qiu Juan probed: "What are you looking at?"
He raised his finger and pointed: "Look, there is a green fruit tree growing very well."
Qiu Juan's eyebrows twitched. There were many kinds of green fruits on the Yashang. He looked in the direction Meng Sheng was pointing at. He didn't know what kind he was talking about, but he saw a large orchid blooming against the sun.
He said pleasantly, "There are orchids!"
Meng Sheng glanced at Yayu who was leaning next to him, and forgot to keep a distance because he was so happy. He could clearly see his skin when he turned his head.
Qiu Juan, with cold white skin, is not only fair, but also has delicate skin. If there are no small scars left by hunting that are not yet fully healed, it should be a young and imaginative face.
With such a grown-up, how can he be a savage? If it were the era he lived in, he should be a person who was pushed out by a large group of people, vying for the top of his heart.
He didn't interrupt the female's unconscious approach, but only asked casually, "Do you like orchids?"
"No..." Qiu Juan quickly denied, but when he saw that Meng Sheng didn't mean to laugh, he stopped sophistry, and said a little embarrassedly: "I mean it's strange for an Asian female to like flowers and plants. Usually only females like these."
"Everyone has their own love, nothing strange." Meng Sheng patted his head, and before he could dodge, he jumped down suddenly: "I'll pick it with you."
