Chapter 20 So many things have to be solved today
Chapter 20 There are so many things to solve today.
There was a lot of ramie by the river, and Jin Yan would go and chop a bunch of them back every day, so now there was a lot of work to do every day.
Jiang Yan consciously took over the weaving work. Although the speed was not fast, the weaving was not bad, and it was not like there were holes here and there.
But his health was not very good, and he could only sit in front of the loom for half an hour at most, and no longer.
Every day Jin Yan digs medicine, digs wild vegetables, collects ramie, and then hunts and cooks.
Occasionally, there would be some cute little ones coming to the door near the cave. From time to time, she would go to say hello and accept the gifts from others.
For this reason, Jiang Yan always told her to go out and pick up more animal skins and come back. A little would add up, and in the future, the floor would be covered with animal skin carpets.
Jin Yan was always cursing, saying that he could talk while standing without pain in his back. None of this was adding to her burden!
But she still endured it. Indeed, this animal skin rug was more attractive.
After coming back, I have to buy furniture for the house and take over Jiang Yan's work. If nothing else happens, I will still bicker with him for most of the day.
This kind of day passed tirelessly for half a month. Jin Yan looked at the half-length piece of cloth and resisted the urge to cut it off and make clothes.
Jiang Yan was weaving seriously and did not forget to talk to her, "I know you are in a hurry to use this cloth, but the length is not enough for one piece right now. Please wait a few more days."
Now he has really become a weaver!
Every day I dream about weaving.
Jin Yan took a deep breath and said with great struggle, "No, we haven't taken a shower for more than half a month. It's been a little hotter recently. Even after I sprinkled insect repellent powder at night, I still feel like there are mosquitoes."
The insect repellent powder she made is very effective. Since it was sprinkled on, even the raw meat left outside at night has remained intact. If it still attracts insects, it is probably their own fault.
She stood up and helped Jiang Yan up, "You have been sitting for a long time today. You can't do it anymore. Go over and lie down."
Jiang Yan didn't struggle and followed her wishes and lay back on the bed.
Weaver Man who doesn't obey is not a good waste.
Besides, he has figured out her temper clearly. As long as he follows her wishes, he will have a good life.
Jin Yan knew that there was no way to improve the weaving speed. It took him half a month to weave this little bit. The main reason was not because Jiang Yan's skills were not good, but because the thread was not enough.
Although there was a lot of ramie cut back, there was very little when it was all cut out and turned into threads. This kind of weaving is very particular about the threads used, and it is difficult to make do with it.
Just arranging the line requires twelve processes, which is extremely time-consuming.
In addition, Jiang Yan's body cannot sit in front of the loom all day, even if she sits alone for a whole day, it will be useless.
And Jin Yan had to work during the day, so she could weave a little more at night, but as long as she sat down and burned an extra stick of incense, Jiang Yan, that loser, would be chirping again, and it was too late for her to quarrel with him, so how could she have the time to weave?
.
Not to mention being busy, the weather is getting hotter and the seasons are changing, so many herbs are almost gone.
She has been busy collecting herbal medicines all day long, and now she has more than a dozen prepared ones at home, and she can even open a pharmacy.
In addition, you have to add furniture to your home, such as beds, chairs, stools, etc. Everything takes a lot of effort.
Not only that, this mountain stream is full of wild animals. Although the cave is quite quiet, there are also a few cute little ones running over to play.
Sometimes when Jin Yan was in a good mood, he would greet her, but when he was in a bad mood, he would harvest a wave of wild game every now and then.
In addition, the ramie outside has not been finished yet. It took me so long to find that stuff. There is no way it can be left to rot in the ground. There is also saponin. She walked most of the forest to find it with great difficulty, and she still has to find some time.
Making soap.
These are the problems that existed before. The new problem that arises now is shoes. Originally, her shoes were Martin boots, which looked handsome and durable.
But after traveling long distances for so long, climbing mountains and trees, holes are wearing out. Jiang Yan's situation is even worse. His shoes were broken when he fell. Fortunately, he doesn't have to walk around. Otherwise, the soles of his feet will be damaged.
All have to be broken to pieces.
The shoe problem must be solved, but she can do other things, and the shoes really can't do anything.
Even if she loves learning in the Space-Time Bureau, who would deliberately learn how to make shoes? Does she want to use shoes to defeat the opponent?
What's more, when you come to this place, you have to do as the Romans do, and she doesn't know how to wear ancient shoes!
Fortunately, Jin Yan always complained to Jiang Yan, so he realized that the trash he picked up was not useless.
As far as he knew, the only types of shoes in this era were cocked-toe shoes, climbing shoes, square shanks, and soap boots.
Upturned-toe shoes are generally worn by rich ladies. The delicate feet paired with the exquisite upturned-toe shoes are full of classic charm.
Upturned-toe shoes are easier to match with clothes and are suitable for more formal occasions, such as festivals, wedding banquets, etc. There are many materials to choose from for upturned-toe shoes. Wealthy people can use Luo brocade and satin to make shoes, while those from ordinary families can use kudzu and ramie, but the upturned-toe shoes
The soles of the shoes are very thin.
The name "Dengyun Shoes" comes from what was passed down by Taoist priests during their practice, and they are said to be shoes that can ascend to the clouds.
There is a big difference between climbing shoes and cock-toe shoes. The soles of climbing shoes are very thick and are very convenient to wear in daily life, such as mountain climbing. The soles of climbing shoes are very thick and strong and wear-resistant.
Fangshan refers to a shoe with a square compound sole, and Fang also means shoe. This style of shoe has four corners at ninety degrees or six sides are square, so it is called Fangshan.
Most of the soap boots are from gangsters. They have powder-soled soap boots, white-soled soap boots, etc. Soap boots are also called official boots. The soap boots worn by different official positions are also very particular. Common people generally cannot wear soap boots.
of.
These four kinds of shoes are just about as good as Dengyunlu, but Jiang Yan said that these shoes are good, but not suitable for jumping up and down like her.
Jin Yan:……
So is she a monkey?
In the end, he decided to make a combination of soap boots and cocked-toe shoes. Firstly, the style of the shoes suited her, and secondly, he just happened to know how to make them.
So the job of making shoes was obviously taken over by Jiang Yan, but Jin Yan still had to contract the work of finding raw materials.
Do you think she is annoyed when all the things are piled up together?
This is not possible.
Everything has to wait until the dust settles, so what hope does she have in living her life?
Jin Yan made the decision immediately. There were so many things that he had to solve even one today!
Full of energy, she took out her short knife and went out.
Jiang Yan looked at the fengfenghuohuo girl and immediately couldn't laugh or cry.
But it has to be said that it is precisely because she is so resolute that the two of them can have a place to live at the bottom of this deserted mountain.
Jin Yan was really capable. She had made up her mind when she came out, mainly looking for some beasts with good skins. It didn't matter whether the meat could be eaten or not. She had to get the skins.
She lurked in the forest for a long time and finally locked onto several large beasts.
She moved the white knife in and the red knife out, and both beasts fell down.
Jin Yan gasped and shook his arm that was too strong, "It's strange, these two beasts are not very powerful, why did it take so much effort to kill them today?"
She calmed down and looked at the dagger in her hand.
Could it be that the knife is not easy to use?
It is possible that from the time I came here to now, basically all the things that have used knives, or have not used knives, have been done by these two short knives.
No matter how good the knife is, it will eventually wear out. She actually feels sorry for her dagger.
Chapter completed!
